How Gable Steveson Became One Of WWE's Biggest Flops 

Personally I don’t think Gable doesn’t have the personality or charisma to do that 😂

​@@intello8953i always taught WWE will present him as Brock Lesnar rather than Kurt angle. Kurt angle atleast get beat down and had losses but Brock was presented as beast from his debut destroying top guys

They need to stop giving people the freaking ankle lock. It's like every Olympic wrestler is given usa flag gear and an ankle lock. I feel like WWE needs to develope those type of wrestlers a bit more. Could've gave him a manager with a mouth piece like lesnar.

How many Rey Mysterio clones have they hoarded from Sin Cara 1 to Kallisto/Samuray del Sol to Dragon Lee to even Del Rio?

@@Joecbg100 7 (If we count Ultimo Dragon, Humberto and Andrade)

@@Joecbg100I liked Sin Cara 1 just as much as Rey as a kid so they kinda succeeded there

Too busy pushing the DemoRAT rocks family to the F'n moon

Ultimo Dragon? He doesn't belong on that list.​@@mariobros68

He’s a Olympic gold medalist they never over hyped his WWE career just his professional career lol

@@JMAC____ how do you miss the point and but also understand it at the same time? All he said was they shouldn't overhype their career until they prove themselves on NXT and somehow you took that as WWE overhyped what he has done in WWE.

@@RomaroBrandon what are you talking about NXT and WWE are the same thing. My point is still valid he was not overhyped at all he didn’t even get a chance to showcase anything the man appeared less than 5 times they simply celebrated his achievements which should be looked as a positive but you marks only care about fake wrestling. How is celebrating someone for winning a gold medal and giving him a contract overhyping someone ? Weird nice try downplaying someone’s real achievements over fake wrestling mark . I wasn’t responding to YOU anyway.

@@JMAC____ you just pointed out he had less than 5 matches so please explain what WWE career are they supposed to hype up? You sound stupid AF! Also WWE and NXT are not the same. One is a company the other is a product of that company. And I never asked "how is celebrating someone for winning a gold medal and giving him a contract over hyping some" those are your exact words not mine but nice try at putting words in my mouth, if only you were smart enough to do it right.

@@RomaroBrandon Overhyped an Olympic gold medalist in wrestling by saying he is an Olympic gold medalist in wrestling? LOL. That's not overhyping. The one thing they should have done was not give him any TV time beyond the celebrating his achievement and signing. We should have only seen him twice on TV until he was ready. He definitely shouldn't have been drafted.

I’ve seen them both wrestling in the high school state wrestling championships in Minnesota. Betts was solid! His little brother Parker was a beast too! But Gable is a whole nother level talent wise. If anyone was gonna be like “the next Brock, the next Shamrock, next Angle, etc.” My money would’ve been on Gable. Maybe AEW will pick him up and figure it out

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Most of the people in AEW and WWE have zero personality and y’all hype them up😂. Plus Chad is another jobber on the roster…stop comparing him to the Olympic Gold Medalist😂😂

@@hotshot8135if AEW was ran by someone like Eric Bischoff or Vince Russo instead of a mark like Tony Khan…they would’ve 100% tried to grab Gable and push him like a beast

@@DADON99 that's your opinion bc i think wwe has never had this many personalities on their roster in a while

Sports skeeeetaaaaa a bunch of haters

I honestly find it funny how Chad Gable is everything they wanted Gable Stevenson to be. He's only missing the medal to be him, but better

@@bashamd96 I guess that's part of why they won't push him .🤷‍♂️ Having a gold medal attached to your name is Legendary. Everyone in sports Respects that.

It is the character work that people forget most about Kurt. That's why Kurt was so good because from day 1 he had the 3I, and was also able to take a joke.

No accountability for the company at all. You're such a WWE kiss ass

If you ain’t got that “IT” factor then you ain’t got it. He won’t be returning. He’s more likely to enter the UFC and find success over there. I doubt AEW would sign him then again TK is sleazy like that…

Lamooooooo

​@@RkoVenomI think that title would be better deserved by Chad Gable.

He was never going to be a Kurt Angle.

@@cadendicky1855 yep. we now have PERC GABLE

Says who? Jack swagger never win a gold medal for his country so you’re talking with zero logic. Just because a random in a comment section said so I guess what a joke stay out of the wrestling business you have no clue

That or Gable Steveson just wasn't committed to having a career in WWE. Sometimes people just don't have the passion for certain things.

WWE went above and beyond to accomodate Stevenson with the Kurt Angle treatment but it was clear that the man himself just wasn’t dedicated to learning the business. How many times has he postponed his planned arrival due to Uni, amateur wrestling, and other commitments?

@@CollegeBallYouknow you're really blaming him for choosing school over WWE? They signed him when he was a freshman, but they weren't paying for him to go there or paying him NOT to go there. It's on them for signing someone still in college and not giving him enough money to quit or switch to online class.

@@RomaroBrandon I find it hard to believe that he wasn’t paid even prior to his official call up since the key feature of the NIL contract was that college athletes could now profit off of WWE using their image and when said athletes appeared for promotional reasons (which Gable did a few times) all while still on school. To add to that, WWE went as far as to set up a remote training facility near his campus for his exclusive use. They went farther with him than any other prospect in history thus far. WWE gave him the option to continue his external pursuits but the fact that he chose everything else but improve on his in-ring acumen should tell you everything about his priority list. Don’t forget that while WWE offered the contract, and were extremely generous, Gable agreed to it by signing. He should at least take half the blame.

@@CollegeBallYouknow I can't agree because they only gave him one televised match on NXT and thought that was okay. They could have tried putting him in the Royal Rumble or had him in backstage segments, doesn't matter so long as he's on TV but instead they put him on live events. They didn't care enough about Gable Stevenson and should have cut their losses sooner if he wasn't taking it seriously.

Yeah the bald egg headed man they wanted him to be looked much more charismatic

Shut up🤦‍♂️

He's just not a pro wrestler. I feel like he would be a solid mma fighter tho.

@@RainTraumatosis comment with ur real id Gable

​He would be celebrated for being a NCAA Champion and Olympic Gold Medalist in the UFC cage.

Eric Young wasn’t given much of a chance on the main roster.

​@@jacksonperry8283EC3 wasn't either and I think it had to do with a couple of things. The EC3 character was not Vince's creation. The 2nd part has to do with the fact he had been WWE before as Derrick Bateman and WWE did nothing with him. So in a way it was pettiness on WWE's part because he got over away from WWE and it made them look bad for not using him properly the 1st time.

Second gimmick ever of the Olympic gold medalist lol

STFU. People supported Vince for decades

That’s not true at all .. you people pick and choose to believe certain “allegations” and ignore others

What are the alligations

@@SuperSohSo fake news nobody even knows about the allegations I’ve never heard anything . You see all the fans still love Brock Lesnar or stone cold or hulk hogan or Tiffany you see the difference. But when it’s comes to some unknown “allegations” excuses not to “get behind” this guy when we know the real reason.. He’s black.

@@JMAC____ Well thats not what I said so no.

And that's the issue with Vince during this time he also trys to turn amateur athlete to come to the WWE into the next kurt angle. This gimmick needs to stop

Or maybe he’s tha next Chad gable

We gotta stop comparing people to Kurt angle it’s too much expectation

He’s a jobber😂😂😂

Agreed.

You do understand the draft is pointless? You must of missed this years draft. The picks don’t matter. You don’t have to duplicate Kurt angle you can create a new gimmick obviously what is wrong with you people

Bro 💀...

😐🤨

We found his burner account

Flaming maggot

Pause

Nah that's more of Chad Gable, Steveson didn't really get the chance to show what he can do

​@@ItsAssFace Chad is actually good on the mic lmao.

@@lucasgoncalves7774 idk bout good but he's ok, and for Steveson I don't know if he ever done a televised promo, correct me if I'm wrong but I never heard him talk.
