Brock Lesnar's wife and WWE legend, Sable, is one of the most notable women in wrestling history. Undoubtedly, she's a unique character and hard to replicate. However, some fans have noticed similarities with current star Scarlett. Still, it should be noted that their connection ends there.
For those wondering, Scarlett and Sable are not related. Both women have a similar role in WWE as managers and have similar outfits and looks. During last year's Extreme Rules Premium Live Event, fans commented the SmackDown star wearing a black outfit almost identical to one Brock Lesnar's other half wore back in the day.
Sable left WWE in 2004 to focus on her family. She married Brock Lesnar on May 6, 2006. They have two sons together, Turk, born in 2009, and Duke, born in 2010. However, it should be noted that both stars also have children from previous relationships.
What does Scarlett think of the comparisons between her and Sable?
Every superstar is unique, but it's hard to avoid comparisons now and again. While some do not want to be associated with another name, the current SmackDown star has no problem with it.
While on The Asylum Wrestling Store, Scarlett shared that she loved being compared to Sable since the latter represented a "strong woman." The 32-year-old also stated that the similarities are not intentional.
"That’s something people always compared me to, her [Sable], which I love. I kind of — I wasn’t intentionally trying to do that but I love her anyways and I loved everything she represented; sexy, strong woman who is also tough. So I always loved the comparison but, I feel like I was the next Sable already even before WWE. I feel like that was already something happening with the ‘Smokeshow’ character so, yeah I’ll take it. I love being part of her." [H/T Post Wrestling]
Will Sable return to WWE and manage Brock Lesnar like Scarlett does Karrion Kross?
Scarlett manages her real-life husband, Karrion Kross, on the blue brand. This is a role Sable also had back in the day. However, it's unlikely that the latter will reprise it.
In the past, Brock Lesnar has shared that before marrying the former Women's Champion, he asked her to quit WWE. The Beast said he did not want her working in the company due to the "long-term side effects of everything there." With this in mind, Sable will unlikely return to manage her husband.
It's fortunate that Scarlett does not take offense to the comparisons with Sable and will continue shaping her own role in WWE.
