How an Oklahoma State Wrestling ‘Tag Team’ Helped Get Brock Lesnar into the WWE

Brock Lesnar is currently the WWE Universal Heavyweight Champion and is set to defend his title in a triple threat match in the main event of the Royal Rumble this Sunday.

On the surface most wouldn’t expect that to have anything to do with OSU, and some may not even want it to, but Lesnar’s recruitment into D-1 wrestling and recruitment into the WWE both came about and possibly would’ve never happened if it weren’t for two former teammates at Oklahoma State University: J Robinson and Gerald Brisco.

Brisco and Robinson were teammates at OSU in the 1960s.
