WWE News Roundup: Ex-Champion has unsettled issues with John Cena, Brock Lesnar guided 21-year-old star, Roman Reigns dream match confirmed (September 19, 2021) 

#4 Gable Steveson received some guidance from WWE megastar Brock Lesnar

Gable Steveson recently signed with WWE, and the timing of his deal seems perfect, as the 21-year-old became an Olympic gold medalist not too long ago.

During an interview with Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour, the freestyle wrestler highlighted Brock Lesnar's influence on him. Steveson found Lesnar's career path quite helpful, as the latter had a sports background before transitioning into the world of WWE.

“Besides talking to guys like Lesnar and Triple H and such, I haven’t actually talked to another collegiate wrestler in WWE….[Brock] was a good part [of the decision] because the Brock Lesnar path, like we talked about, he started with WWE and went to the NFL and made it to the final stages of being on the team, then went to UFC. So, I mean the Brock Lesnar route is helpful for me, and I want to pave my own way and have my own destiny. He was a big help in this, and it was cool that he gave me some guidance,” said Steveson.

Brock Lesnar and Gable Steveson even had a training session together in the past. You can check that out HERE.
