Speaking at his re-introduction press conference, Gable was asked about his time in W🌜WE.

"I think, WWE just wasn't the right time. I have a competitive edge to me. They knew that, and it was not the time for it. Maybe one day, if the stars align, it would be a great opportunity to do it again. I have no bad feelings with it. I have no bad blood with it. I would like to keep moving forward with everything I have going on," he said.

Steveson had a year of eligibility in wrestling left follꦏowing his retirement in 2022 after winning his second conse🍸cutive Heavyweight championship. He’s expected to make his season debut on November 24.
