Over the last few years WWE signed a number of talents and in 2021 it was announced that Gable Steveson had signed a contract with the company. The signing generated a lot of buzz, but ultimately things didn’t work out for Gable Steveson’s run with WWE.
Steveson only made a few appearances on WWE programming and only wrestled in one televised match when he faced off against Baron Corbin at the NXT Great American Bash premium live event in 2023. Steveson officially parted ways with WWE earlier this year when he was released from his contract in May.
The Olympic Gold Medalist was asked why his WWE run didn’t work out during a recent press conference and he stated that he just doesn’t think the timing was right while indicating that he’s open to returning someday.
“I think WWE just wasn’t the right time. I had a lot of competitive edge to me, and they knew that. It was just not the time for it, and so maybe one day if the stars align, it’ll be a great opportunity to do it again. I have no bad feelings with it, I have no bad blood with it, and I would like to keep moving forward with everything.”
