Brock Lesnar is a special man, and he’s been a mentor and role model for several youngsters over the years. However, there’s a particular young man who has followed in his footsteps and holds a special place in Lesnar’s heart.

During an interview, two times NCAA Champion Gable Steveson revealed that The Beast has been watching him grow since he was a teenager. He has been guiding him and helping him improve over the years.

“Brock’s my guy. He’s been there since I was like 16. It’s cool to have him watch me grow to what I am now. Him sending texts like congratulations, that’s a lot from him cause he’s a man of few words if you’re not in the circle he’s in. So, it’s cool to have that applause from him.”
