Triple H, WWE & More React To Gable Steveson Winning Olympic Gold Medal

Triple H, WWE, and more names from the wrestling world have reacted to Gable Steveson winning an Olympic gold medal today.

Steveson won gold in Olympic Freestyle Heavyweight Wrestling, and did so in dramatic fashion, as the contest between him and Georgia’s Geno Petriashvili finished 9-8 thanks to a takedown from Steveson in the final second.

Steveson has previously expressed an interest in joining WWE and it does appear that interest is mutual, and he was even in the crowd at NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver.

Here are a few of the reactions:
