WWE Reportedly In Talks With Britain's Strongest Man Tom Stoltman And His Brother Luke

WWE is likely interested in getting Britain's strongest brothers under their brand. That's based on a claim from 2020 World's Strongest Man runner up Tom Stoltman.

The 26-year-old says WWE has exchanged messages with both him and his brother Luke, a five-time Scotland's Strongest Man champion. Tom was interviewed on the Football Daft Podcast this week and, whilst speaking, made claims of WWE reaching out to the brothers to ask them to participate in tryouts while on tour in Germany.

They were unable to accept the offer as they had other commitments, however. Tom says messages have been exchanged since then.

"Me and my brother got asked to the tryouts when they [WWE] came to Germany for the European ones, but… I don't know why we didn't take them," Stotlman noted (H/T Inside the Ropes). "I think we were doing some massive competition or something. We've messaged them a few times back and forward."

The Scottish competitor revealed Triple H has served as their contact on the WWE front.

They also got recognition from WWE Champion Drew McIntyre, who pointed to Tom finishing the aforementioned competition as runner up prior to his Championship win over Randy Orton in November. "A good week for Scotland," Drew wrote. "Qualified for the Euros, big  @stoltman_tom came second in World's Strongest Man, now it's time for me to do my bit."

An Interesting Prospect

Tom and Luke are widely regarded as the strongest siblings in the world and claim to be the "strongest brothers to have ever lived" via their social media accounts and YouTube channel.

It's unclear as to whether WWE's interest will lead to the brothers making the move to sports entertainment and we aren't sure how it would work out if it does. This is an interesting bit of information in any case.
