Gable Steveson’s WWE Ambitions
Steveson spoke to Gopher Sports about his relationship with Brock Lesnar.
“My relationship with Brock has been awesome. It’s outstanding that a guy like that has noticed me and has gone out of his way to be there for me and guide me in the right direction. We all know who Brock is on TV, but behind everything else, he is a nice person and he has done some amazing things for me.”
In the same interview, Steveson spoke about his WWE ambitions.
“This is a dream I’ve had since I was a kid. Everybody grew up watching WWE when they were young, I know I watched it. It’s just been a lifelong dream of mine.”
Steveson also said he hopes to be a “Paul Heyman Guy” during his time with WWE.
“Every great spokesperson needs its next public figure. Some day, I wish that I can be that next public figure for [Heyman].”
