Gable Stevenson lost 5-4 in the NCAA finals. WWE should slap a mask on him and make him Chad Gable’s lucha partner to defeat Otis.

The story is WWE released him because he was difficult to work with.
Not surprising....


On June 19th, 2019 Gable Steveson and a University of Minnesota wrestling teammate were both arrested after the Police received a 911 call the previous night about an alleged sexual assault that involved a foreign object object.
Redirect Notice
Six months after Steveson’s arrest, it was announced that he will not face criminal charges due to “inadequate evidence,".
When speaking to the media, Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman hinted that alcohol may have been involved. He also stated that under Minnesota’s current laws at the time on intoxication and a victim’s ability to give consent, Hennepin County Attorney’s Office “would restricted in how it could bring charges in the case”.
He later went one to state that “In neighboring Wisconsin, Freeman said, prosecutors have broad discretion to charge suspects who know or should know that someone's alcohol consumption can impair his or her ability to give consent. He said he and others have pushed Minnesota lawmakers to pass similar legislation but have been unsuccessful so far.”
Gable Steveson maintained that he was “100% Innocent” during this period.

What exactly is this law you ask? Well in Minnesota:
a person who is sexually assaulted while intoxicated isn't considered "mentally incapacitated" if he or she consumed alcohol or drugs voluntarily.
In laymen’s terms, if a person drank themselves to a point where they could not consent to sexual acts, they were not considered too impaired to have done so.
Minnesota Supreme Court throws out rape conviction because intoxicated woman willingly consumed alcohol
This was a contentious topic which sparked protests in Minnesota. On June 30th, 2021, this loophole which might have helped Steveson avoid charges, was repealed by Minnesota law makers.
“Buried deep in the massive public safety bill that lawmakers passed overnight Wednesday is a provision that closes the “intoxication loophole” in Minnesota’s third-degree sexual conduct law. That statute says a person who is sexually assaulted is not considered “mentally impaired” if they voluntarily drank alcohol or consumed drugs to the point where they could not give reasoned consent. To meet that standard for impairment, current law requires the drugs or alcohol must be “administered to that person without the person’s agreement.”

They make Austin Theory eat another pin.

Guy went from beating Cena at Wrestlemania to total jobber within 2 years.

I havent seen much of theory but I admittedly got a kick hearing vince's pet project seemingly slide down the card. Where do people think he should be on the card? Did he deserve to be hyped up as the next big thing?


Really seemed the past few years vince was desperate to put the mcmahon dust on anyone who might benefit from the run.

I noticed a couple minor similarities between Gable and El Grande Americano. Since Gable had a legitimate doctor’s note stating that he couldn’t compete, the case is closed.

I foresee Gable being put into a Triple Threat or Tag Team match with El Grande Americano at one point and shenanigans ensuing.

He's a solid midcard guy imo. Not main event material like how Vince was treating him but certainly not jobber material like how HHH books him. Somewhere in the middle.

I guess if he was related to 100 different samoan wrestlers like Jey Uso is he'd be main eventing WrestleMania too.

Gable doing "Thank youuuuuuu" vs El Grande Americano doing "Graciaaaaasssss" in the ring at the same time would be the best thing WWE has done in years.

Imagine botching so badly causing so many people to talk about it on such a huge level that it's all but forced to be worked into the storyline. Good grief.

I see people on FB defending him saying shit like "oh, he botches for the first time and everyone talks shit". It's nuts.

I've said this before (probably on this thread), but had it been Jey that was hurt instead of Jimmy a few years ago, Jimmy could 100% have been given the "main event" gimmick & be in Jey's spot right now, and there would be exactly no difference.

The fact that people think the Usos are an all-time great tag team is mind-bottling to me, too. Tell me how they're any better than DIY, Motor City Machine Guns, etc. I don't even like Street Profits and they're no better than them. I'd rather have Gallows & Anderson than I would the Usos - and they got cut twice.

If the Usos weren't Samoan, they'd have been future endeavored years ago & nobody woulda noticed.

Though between Nia Snax's extensive history and now Jey, maybe grand scale botching can be the new Samoan gimmick.

Drew now needs an eye patch. Further proof that Punk was correct, REAL GLASS IS DANGEROUS!

Also, looks like Hulkster was interrupted before he could finish his chalk graffiti.
