I've had it happen before, that's why I now use Skull Sunder and Onslaught before Butcher's Block. Same with dragon.
Also useful for grabbing hate on Neo Exdeath in preparation to holmgang Delta Attack. Once you know the timing of that part well enough, you can (anywhere within a combo) provoke + onslaught and you're good to go (assuming your WHM isn't bombing C3s like a boss)
