Olympic Gold Medalist Gable Steveson, the highly anticipated talent expected to join the WWE main roster, experienced a delay in his plans as he underwent a heart procedure, according to previous reports. However, he has since made a successful return to amateur competition and is set to participate in the upcoming US Open this September. In the meantime, Steveson has been featured in recent weeks on NXT TV as part of a storyline involving Eddy Thorpe and Damon Kemp, who happens to be Steveson’s real-life brother.
Renowned wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer recently shared on Wrestling Observer Radio that Steveson has received praise from within the company for his significant progress in training. This positive feedback is particularly noteworthy considering earlier criticism regarding his perceived lack of progression. Those in WWE now believe that Steveson will exceed initial expectations and excel beyond what was initially anticipated.
While the timeline for his debut on the WWE main roster remains uncertain, Gable Steveson’s improved training and positive reception from WWE personnel indicate a promising future for the young talent. Wrestling fans and insiders eagerly await his eventual transition to the main stage, where he is expected to make a significant impact.
