Olympic gold medalist Gable Steveson who recently signed a professional contract with WWE recently revealed when he would wrestle his debut match in WWE. Steveson is the second ever Olympic gold medalist in WWE history after Kurt Angle.
Gable Steveson had always been extremely talented in freestyle wrestling and in 2020 Olympics he went on to win the gold medal in freestyle wrestling. In 2021 he signed a professional contract with WWE, and he was even drafted to Monday Night RAW during the last ever WWE draft that took place in 2021.
Gable Steveson Reveals When Will His Debut Match Take Place
But it had been nearly two years, he still could not wrestle his first match in WWE. Fans already criticized WWE a lot for not having anything settled even after such a long time. Of course he made a number of cameo appearances in WWE, like his appearance at WrestleMania 38.
It is finally rumoured that he will soon make his WWE debut. The place all the time is still not determined. He is going to be the second ever star in WWE who is an Olympic gold medalist. The first WWE star who won the Olympic gold medalist was WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle. We hope Steveson becomes as successful as Kurt Angle in WWE.
Gable Steveson who recently signed a professional contract with WWE recently spoke to MMAFighting where he revealed when he would wrestle his debut match in WWE. Steveson is the second ever Olympic gold medalist in WWE history after Kurt Angle. He said;
“I’m pretty close to debuting and being on-screen. I’m just waiting for that call and waiting for that time. Some days it’s stressful because I never know when it will come and I’m used to amateur wrestling where it’s like, ‘Hey, we have the Olympics in three months or we have the Olympic trials in two months, be ready for it.’
“Right now, you’re going through the motions with no goal, and I wish I could have that goal in sight and put forth and give people real answers when I’m debuting, but it will be coming really, really soon. And when I mean really, really soon, probably after [WrestleMania] or just a little bit after that.
“I think being able to understand that this game is different and it’s a process and I’m going to follow the process the right way and just keep moving forward. I’m young and I’m hungry. I want to be the best in everything I can possibly be. Step one is WWE and go out there and be the most physical, athletic, and dominant wrestler since probably Brock Lesnar, maybe even more than that.
“I know the Olympics is next year and I hope to be a part of that and keep moving forward and keep winning big titles for the USA also. I would love a second run,” he said. “I feel I have a lot more left in the tank to showcase. I want to prove USA right and keep moving forward overall and become one of the best American amateur wrestlers ever, and I hope I can achieve the Bruce Baumgartner status of having a bunch of medals and having the accolades to show and be a part of WWE and be an entertainer, too.”
