The 6-foot-11 center might just have a future in wrestling once he’s done in the NBA. In a previous interview with Vice back in October, he talked about his passion for wrestling and even noted that he’s spoken with WWE executives about the potential transition.
“I’m actually talking to the people over there now. Vince McMahon, he knows me,” Kanter said. “I had dinner with (Paul Heyman) two, three days ago. I asked him how long he’s gonna do this and he said ‘as long as Brock (Lesnar) goes, I go, and then I’m with you.’ I’m like yes! Seriously. I’m really serious about it.”
Kanter still has a long career playing professional basketball as he just agreed to a two-year, $10 million deal with the Boston Celtics. Time will tell if he ever pursues his desire to wrestle a match.
