An update has been given on the status of current WWE signee and amateur wrestling star Gable Steveson.
Steveson was drafted to RAW during the 2021 WWE Draft after the athletic standout signed a multi-year contract with Vince McMahon's company. However, as part of the deal, it was confirmed that Steveson would finish his commitments for the Minnesota Gophers before his WWE run begins.
Now, it has been confirmed that, as soon as these commitments are fulfilled, Steveson will fully commit to WWE. In a recent interview with KSTP Sports, Steveson talked about winding down his collegiate career:
"It might hit. You know, just because I’m getting my last matches, like, really wrestling before I go into the WWE so, it might hit different. You never know, so, I mean, when that time comes, I walk out for the senior night and I get my hand raised for the last time, it might hit, you never know."
