A current WWE star recently called out Brock Lesnar for a match at WrestleMania

Brock Lesnar is one of the most fearsome wrestlers to have stepped inside the squared circle. Not many stars like to step into the ring with the former Universal Champion.

However, Austin Theory recently laid out the challenge to The Beast Incarnate for a showdown at WrestleMania:

"So you're thinking that it's possible me versus Brock Lesnar [at] WrestleMania, is that? You know what? I'll take the challenge. If that's the challenge, I'll take the challenge. Me and Lesnar for the United States championship. It sounds like Hollywood to me," said Theory.

The 25-year-old also stated that he would like to face Lesnar in a No DQ match:

"Definitely no disqualification. Just because, I mean, Brock's definitely gonna need all the weapons he can use. I think that's the stipulation. I think that's all we need."

It's crazy to think that the same Austin Theory that is now US Champion is the same guy thrown off the top of the Elimination Chamber by Brock Lesnar last year. He's a growing star and has transformed a lot -TJ https://t.co/y8GhoFQhjN

The past interactions between Austin Theory and Lesnar have not gone great for the United States Champion.

However, the former WWE Champion played a big role in Theory retaining the United States title against Bobby Lashley on RAW is XXX.
