Brock Lesnar has been off and on one of WWE’s biggest stars since entering the organization in the early 2000s. However members of the WWE Universe have been asking ‘Who is going to be the next Brock Lesnar’. One promising talent looks like Gable Steveson who has similar credentials as Lesnar. Steveson was a former NCAA Champion at the University of Minnesota – just like Lesnar. Did Brock Lesnar ‘refuse’ to lose this WWE title match?
During a recent interview with Morales Torres of Lucha Libre Online Steveson discussed Brock Lesnar, how the two practice together and how Lesnar has been in his corner for quite some time. Credit to SportsKeeda for the below.
“Brock Lesnar, he’s one of a kind. I mean, I personally know Brock Lesnar myself,” Steveson said. “We practice together. We have pictures and everything else. To be able to know Brock… He’s probably the best thing that WWE has touched. He’s a physical specimen. He was one of a kind. I’m trying to make sure that I can be the be that next one-of-a-kind person. So following that and that journey, but do it in my own way, and be the best that I can in my own way. But to have someone like Lesnar be in my corner is crazy.
Brock Lesnar was also offered a million-dollar match in WWE. Steveson continued: “I know he wishes me good things and he’s gonna keep pulling me in the right direction,” Steveson added. “Brock Lesnar is one of the greatest things that’s happened to WWE. He’s done it all. I hope to do it all too. It’s hard to explain. You have to feel it yourself. Lesnar, he’s a specimen. He’s huge. He’s, I think, 41 years old. He can still step on the wrestling mat and do good things. I mean, him training with me is crazy. He pointed me in the right direction with all the things that I need to write to be a great one. And like I said, to be able to (train with Brock Lesnar), you got to feel it yourself to know what it’s like to wrestle Brock Lesnar.”
