EXCLUSIVE: Brock Lesnar Hires Randy Couture as a Trainer

June 17, 2010

WrestleZone has exclusively learned that UFC Champion Brock Lesnar has hired former opponent Randy Couture to help train him for the upcoming UFC 116 Undisputed Heavyweight Title fight with Shane Carwin. Back in 2008, Lesnar defeated Couture to become the UFC Undisputed Heavyweight Champion, and according to what I’ve been told the two sides have since become friends out of mutual respect.

Additionally, we have learned through CraveOnline.com that Paul Heyman will be posting exclusive comments concerning this developing story sometime tomorrow, but in the meantime, there is video footage available of Brock Lesnar training with Randy Couture.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
