Prior to signing for WWE, Brock Lesnar has made some noteworthy accomplishments in amateur wrestling. During his time at the University of Minnesota, Lesnar won the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championship. Just like Lesnar, another individual from the University of Minnesota has won the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championship before signing for WWE.

Here, we are talking about Olympic Gold medalist, Gable Steveson. Ever since Steveson signed for WWE, fans have made comparisons between him and Brock Lesnar. During an episode of Beyond the Fight, Chael Sonnen talked about the bond Lesnar and Gable Steveson share.

He also predicted Steveson is going to follow in Lesnar’s footsteps following his WWE debut. Sonnen said, “Even though Gable was a young guy, Brock was in there to get workouts because he’s got the absolute best guy and it’s right here at his alma mater, not to mention it’s the same weight class.”

The former UFC star added, “Brock was an undefeated NCAA champion, went on to become a world champion within the UFC, went on to become the world champion within the WWE. Same steps Gable is following. If you’re trying to guess what Gable is going to do, it’s not a bad thing to look at the guy he looks to.”
