No, thank you for what you do. We listen to you all the time,&#8217;\u201d MacDonald, 37, captioned his update. \u201cFor 20 minutes we chatted and I got to know what a genuinely cool (and REAL) dude he is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In the snapshot, Sable, 58, posed while leaning on Lesnar, 48, as MacDonald took the photo while standing slightly in front of them. Sable and Lesnar wore black shirts, with Lesnar also rocking a cowboy black hat. Meanwhile, MacDonald donned a gray shirt with a denim jacket.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">However, those who spotted Sable in the wild likely wouldn\u2019t recognize her from her days in the ring. That\u2019s because she traded her signature bleach-blond hair for darker, straightened tresses. Her modest street clothing also added to the incognito effect.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Tom MacDonald, Brock Lesnar, and Sable\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"428\" height=\"570\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/68a31af6a0d7019d7fc15d4d2a91c379.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Tom MacDonald, Brock Lesnar, and Sable<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Tom MacDonald, Brock Lesnar, and Sable (Instagram\/TomMacDonald)<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In the comments, MacDonald\u2019s followers joined him in marveling over the chance encounter.
