Latest on Gable Steveson’s WWE status

It looks like Gable Steveson is fully all-in with WWE, and seemingly, his amateur wrestling days are behind him.

His run

Gable had been looking to make a return to amateur wrestling and potentially compete in the 2024 Olympics. He hasn’t been used on television since last summer, although he has worked a handful of live events in NXT. His only TV match was a no-contest with Baron Corbin at an NXT PLE last year.

Gable was brought in last week to work a dark match at a SmackDown event and is booked to do more in the coming weeks.

The future

The University of Minnesota coach Brandon Eggum updated Steveson’s status, noting that Steveson won’t be competing for them this season as he shifts his focus to WWE.

“Also, a quick update on Gable Steveson. Unfortunately, he will not be able to compete for us this season. He is a great competitor. He’s always wanted to compete for the University of Minnesota. But ultimately, the WWE would prefer that he’s solely focused on his professional wrestling career at this time. So whenever he’s not at the WWE Performance Center down in Florida, he’s up here in our realm working with our heavyweights, which is awesome. We just can’t thank him enough for the impact he’s had on our program. We’ve loved following him and watching him compete on the mat. He’s amazing, and now we’re excited to watch him in his WWE career, so thank you, Gable Steveson, from our program and from all the Gopher fans across the country and the world, and we look forward to watching you in your career here moving forward.”
