Former amateur champion, UFC champion and WWE champion, Brock Lesnar, is a unique talent. He earned the nickname “next big hit” for standing out in almost every sport he has ever prepared to play for.
Standing 1.98 m tall and weighing 130 kilos, offensive guard Parker Boudreaux of the University of Central Florida has been compared to Lesnar on several occasions.
Boudreaux is now apparently following in Lesnar’s footsteps, at least his professional wrestling steps, and has signed a development agreement with WWE.
According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Boudreaux has notified the University of Central Florida of his intention to stop playing football to focus on his wrestling career.
Calling himself “the next big thing,” Boudreaux suffered a concussion last year and missed most of last season, and was spotted with Eva Marie at a Royal Rumble screening party.
Even Brock Lesnar’s personal advisor, Paul Heyman, endorsed Boudreaux as the real deal.
WWE has yet to confirm Boudreaux’s development deal.
