Gable Steveson Names WWE Stars He Wants To Wrestle

Olympic Gold Medalist Gable Steveson was a surprising addition to the 2021 WWE Draft, when he was drafted to the Raw roster on night two of the event.

Steveson was the guest on After the Bell with Corey Graves, where he was asked about the people in WWE that he wanted to mix it up with. Steveson had high goals for his WWE future, hoping to mix it up with the company’s top names.

Steveson said:

“I’m looking to mix it up with Roman. I really like Roman right now, what he’s doing. He’s perfect, he has the look, the talk, everything about him is perfect. I’m looking to mix it up with him and obviously, Lesnar. We have two NCAA champions in our own city getting after it. I’d like a face-to-face with Brock Lesnar and a face-to-face with Roman Reigns. Those guys are doing a good job. I am on Monday Night Raw, so right now, I’d like to take care of Big E because he’s the champion. I’m title seeking, I’ve always been a title seeker. Gold medal, NCAA championship, anything else I’ve accomplished and now that WWE belt, whether it’s Monday night, Friday night, I love to be that person that people show up to watch. Wherever Gable is, that show ends up being perfect,”

Gable was then asked about stepping into the ring with fellow Minnesotan Shelton Benjamin and fellow Olympic wrestler Chad Gable, both of which were matches that were of interest to Steveson. He said:

“Can’t forget about Shelton. I’d love to have a thing with Shelton, get after it, and go from there just because it’s two Minnesota people. He was a heavyweight All-American at Minnesota and he was a phenomenal wrestler and phenomenal in WWE. I’d love to mix it up with him and put on a good show. Chad Gable because my name is Gable too. There can be two Gables but, you know, is there really?”

Steveson is reportedly set to become a full-time member of the WWE roster after the college season ends in March, with the idea being that he makes his in-ring debut at WrestleMania.
