Gable Steveson Told Brock Lesnar To Cut Off His Viking Ponytail

Brock Lesnar was absent from WWE television since WrestleMania 36. That was rectified at WWE SummerSlam, where he made his shocking return to WWE television and confronted Roman Reigns. Lesnar then brutalized John Cena after the show went off the air. It seems his new look has garnered a response from an unlikely name.

Last month, Brock Lesnar made headlines after he revealed a completely different look, one where he showed off a Viking beard and ponytail. Even Roman Reigns ripped on Lesnar for the Viking look.

While speaking during The MMA Hour show, Gable Steveson commented on Brock Lesnar’s new hairstyle. Steveson revealed that he ordered Brock Lesnar to cut his ugly ponytail.

Brock came in one day, we were practicing. The first video you probably saw of me and him wrestling, he was real tired. He came in and he was like, you’ve got to cut that s**t off of your head. I was like, ‘what do you mean? I like it.’ And he was like, ‘No, you’ve got to look like a professional.’ And so I thought about it for a few months and mid-match I’d get my hair pulled. Few months later… I was like, you know what? I’m going (to short) and I’m going to grow a beard out.

As reported earlier, Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns is likely to take place in Saudi Arabia for the WWE Crown Jewel event in October this year.

We will have to wait and see how the feud between Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns will be booked in the coming months as the different dynamics between the two will make for a great storyline.
