Shelton Benjamin attended the University of Minnesota at the same time as Brock Lesnar. In fact, the pair had met earlier at a wrestling tournament in 1997 before running into each other again at university in the wrestling team. Shelton Benjamin was the teams assistant coach when Brock Lesnar won the NCAA Division 1 heavyweight Championship.
The duo were later roommates while they were both down in WWE developmental at Ohio Valley Wrestling. And the duo even won the OVW Southern Tag Team Championships.
