Report: Lack Of Debut A 'Bad Sign' For WWE Hot Prospect
A top WWE prospect is yet to make their debut after much fanfare
Nothing is ever certain in wrestling. The next big thing may be a flash in the pan, whilst the overlooked ‘good hand’ may end up becoming one of the biggest names in the industry.
WWE will be hoping that everything goes according to plan for one hot prospect, but during a recent episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer suggested that the lack of a debut for the much hyped Gable Steveson could be a ‘bad sign’:
“I have not heard how he [Gable] is doing, but I will say that it’s probably a very bad sign that I haven’t. I had heard – and he had been told – right after WrestleMania, and we’ve had many months since WrestleMania. So I am guessing that he is not ready yet, and that’s the hold up,” said Meltzer.
The first ever WWE NIL signee, the hype around Steveson was through the roof at the time of his signing, with the Olympic gold medal winning freestyle wrestler being hyped as possibly the next Brock Lesnar or Kurt Angle.
Despite a few cameos on WWE TV, and having been drafted to Raw in 2021, chatter around Steveson has gone quiet, with Ken Anderson recently revealing that Steveson has been training with him at his school in Minneapolis.
