Brock Lesnar a déjà été intéressé à travailler pour la TNA selon Kurt Angle, un ami de longue date de “The Beast”.
Sur son podcast, Angle a affirmé que Lesnar a contacté la TNA en 2007.
“Okay, Brock calls me. He’s not in WWE. “He says, ‘Listen, man, can you get me in TNA? —’ I probably shouldn’t even be saying this, but you know what, Brock doesn’t care. So he said, ‘Hey, what are you making?’ I told him what I was making and he said, ‘If you can get me that, I’ll come. I approached TNA, and they said, ‘No, we’re not going to give him that kind of money.”
Angle mentionne que la TNA n’avait pas l’argent nécessaire pour répondre aux exigences de Lesnar.
