Brock Lesnar-like push predicted for 18-year-old son of WWE Hall of Famer

A top WWE name has made a massive prediction about a Hall of Famer's son in a new interview. The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes believes that Mark Henry's son Jacob could become as dominant of a star as Brock Lesnar when he starts wrestling under the WWE banner.

Jacob Henry, son of Mark Henry, signed a deal with the Stamford-based promotion earlier this year. Many fans are intrigued by the idea of Jacob making it big in WWE someday, just like his father did.

In an interview with 2 Bears, 1 Cave, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes spoke about Mark and Jacob Henry and had the following to say about the young gun:

"I love Mark Henry. He's still part of this radio show called Busted Open. His son Jacob, who is going to come up and... probably "Brock Lesnar" us all when he arrives. We're all looking forward to it." [45:21-45:32]

Cody Rhodes talks about feud with Brock Lesnar in WWE

Cody wrestled Lesnar thrice last year and won the feud 2-1. After his SummerSlam win over The Beast Incarnate, Rhodes sat down with Sports Illustrated and said the following:

"This was my third time wrestling him, and the first two matches were [about] surviving Brock Lesnar. This match was different. SummerSlam was all about defeating Brock Lesnar. There is no one like him. He's a rare athlete. He's back home farming, but he was also preparing. This is what he loves. I don't talk to him, and we don't know each other like that, but I get a sense that's the type of passion he has. He makes this a heavyweight company, but he's also agile." [H/T SI]

Cody Rhodes was Lesnar's last opponent and the latter has yet to return to the Stamford-based company. Another confrontation between these two megastars would receive a massive pop from the fans if it ever happens.
