Is Brock Lesnar American or Canadian? the Truth Behind His Dual Roots as He Retires
By Marcus Vance
Lesnar conquered professional wrestling at record speed, became an NFL prospect for the Minnesota Vikings during the 2004 preseason, and stormed the mixed martial arts world to capture the UFC Heavyweight Championship from Randy Couture in 2008. Yet as his bank account and global fame exploded, his patience with American urban life evaporated. Following a grueling battle with diverticulitis that nearly took his life, Lesnar reassessed how and where he wanted to live.
Around 2013, Lesnar quietly shifted his family’s primary base across the 49th parallel to Maryfield, Saskatchewan, a prairie village near the Manitoba border with a population hovering near 350 residents. While critics assumed the move was temporary, Lesnar purchased thousands of acres of productive grain cropland. Saskatchewan hunting and farming were not hobbies for the multi-millionaire; they formed the bedrock of his daily existence alongside his wife, former WWE performer Rena "Sable" Greek, and their children.
