Son Of Hall Of Famer Signs WWE Contract

WWE Hall Of Famer Remembers Gruesome Injury From Early Match

The son of a WWE Hall of Famer who won many championships has signed a deal with the company.

There are dozens of wrestlers currently under contract to WWE who are the children and grandchildren of Hall of Famers because the pro wrestling business certainly runs in the family.

Rick and Scott Steiner are examples of that since the WWE Hall of Fame tag team already has family in the company. Bron Breakker, who is Rock’s son and Scott’s nephew, is the current Intercontinental Champion on the Raw brand. Breakker is also a former two-time NXT Champion.

Many people who watch WWE would likely predict that Bron is on his way to being a future main event performer for many years to come especially since he’s still in his late 20s and has only been wrestling for less than five years.

Scott Steiner and Bron Breakker were interviewed on an ESPN broadcast showing Scott’s son Brock Rechsteiner playing football as a tight end for the Jacksonville State Gamecocks. On the broadcast, Scott confirmed that his son Brock was interested in a pro wrestling career.

Bron Breakker also spoke about his younger cousin’s future.

“I think football and amateur wrestling are probably the top two sports that translate into what we do. It’s in the family blood, family business. I think he’s gonna take to it very well, I’m excited for him.”

Brock Rechsteiner Looking To Follow WWE Hall Of Famer Dad With Pro Wrestling Career

It has been rumored that Brock Rechsteiner has signed a WWE NIL deal, but it wasn’t confirmed. The NIL (Next In Line) deals are for collegiate athletes who sign a contract with WWE about having a future with the company.

Several current NXT stars were discovered after NIL deals, including the current NXT Champion Oba Femi, who was a shotputter at the University of Alabama.

Scott Steiner’s other son Brandon Rechsteiner is a sophomore basketball player at Virginia Tech who talked to Jim Varsallone about his family while also confirming that his brother Brock has signed a NIL deal with WWE.

“So, my brother, he’ll be a superstar in the WWE, for sure. Growing up, I was the big WWE fan…..my dream for me and my brother would both be to do the best we can in what we do, which him for football, me for basketball, and then, for my brother, I know he really wants to be in WWE.

He has signed an N.I.L. deal with WWE, so my dream for him would be to do really good in football, try to take it to the NFL, whatever that means, and then….he will be a WWE superstar because he’s so talented, and he has the charisma that my dad has.”

Brandon went on to say that he wants to try to make it to the NBA or keep playing professionally. Brandon said going to WWE would be a cool backup plan and teased being a new generation of the Steiner Brothers and maybe even teaming up with cousin Bron Breakker.

Earlier this week, proud dad Scott Steiner posted a photo of his son Brock on social media wearing a WWE shirt. As you can see in the photo, Brock also has the same white hair look that his father Scott used in the second half of his career.
