Advocate Paul Heyman recently predicted that WWE and the UFC would be entering a bidding war for the services of top-ranked heavyweight collegiate wrestler Gable Steveson. Stevenson, along with his brother, met Heyman and WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar backstage at a WWE live event from the Target Center in Minneapolis this past March.
It looks like Lesnar and Stevenson were recently working together on the wrestling mat. The University of Minnesota’s wrestling team, The Golden Gophers, Tweeted out some videos of the pair. Check them out here:
