WWE legend Gerald Brisco says free agent Brock Lesnar would consider AEW move… if offered ‘ungodly amount’ of money
Gerald Brisco believes Brock Lesnar would consider a shock move to AEW.
The Beast Incarnate has been a free agent since leaving WWE earlier this year.
Lesnar, who has had two successful stints with WWE, was last seen in a wrestling ring when he lost his world title to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36 in April.
Brisco, a former WWE wrestler and producer, has admitted any wrestling or mixed martial arts promotion could land Lesnar for the right price.
He told WrestlingInc: “You never count anything out in this business, and you never say you’re not going to do it, or he won’t do it.
“If the money is right, and I believe this with all my soul that Brock Lesnar would not do it unless he was offered one of those… as Ted DiBiase said, ‘everybody has their damn price’.
“If they come up and offer him this ungodly amount, I don’t know.”
AEW have signed several former WWE stars, including Rusev and Sting, since the company’s inception last year.
And Brisco reckons if Lesnar was ever offered a contract by another promotion, the 43-year-old would tell WWE chairman Vince McMahon to see if he could get a better deal.
Brisco added: “I know Brock never has to work another day in his life, and his grandchildren and their grandchildren will never have to work another day of life.
“You talk about frugal. This guy is one of the most frugal guys there is on the face of the Earth.
“Did he save us money? Yes, every damn penny of it.
“It would have to be an extreme circumstance, and I think he would pick up the phone and call Vince about the amount of money that he got offered and see if Vince is going to go to do anything.
“And honestly, I think Vince would do something.”
