Rechsteiner and his brother Brandon previously signed NIL deals with WWE last year. Brandon Rechsteiner was a guard for the Colorado State Rams men’s basketball team. He averaged 12 points per game with the Rams during the 2025-26 season and announced he would transfer to Kansas State.

Rechsteiner’s (Steiner) legacy is deeply rooted in WWE.

Scott Steiner and his brother Rick were tag team champions in professional wrestling. The two earned a nod to the WWE Hall of Fame in 2022. Rick Steiner’s son, Bronson Rechsteiner, is a major WWE star known as Bron Breakker.
