Kurt Angle Believes Gable Steveson Can Be The Next Brock Lesnar
"If he adapts to pro wrestling and picks it up like Brock Lesnar, he's going to be exactly like Brock Lesnar"
During the latest edition of The Kurt Angle Show, The Wrestling Machine tipped Gable Steveson to be the next Brock Lesnar in either WWE or MMA.
"I think he's going to be a big star. Look at his look. If he adapts to pro wrestling and picks it up like Brock Lesnar, he's going to be exactly like Brock Lesnar," Angle said. "I think he needs to take the chance, whether he goes to MMA or WWE, one or the other, but he's got to do one of them. I think he is a future star regardless of what he does. He's got a great look to him, great athlete."
Steveson has previously expressed his desire to wrestle in WWE and has held talks with the company. He also made an appearance at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver alongside Stephanie McMahon and Canyon Ceman, but Triple H noted Steveson is currently focussing on the Tokyo Olympics and both sides will see where their partnership goes following the games.
