Gable Steveson finally breaks silence on his disappointing WWE experience
Gable's WWE experience ended after just three years due to a multitude of factors
www.wrestling-world.comHere’s the latest publicly reported status on Gable Steveson and WWE as of April 2026.
- In May 2024, reports indicated Gable Steveson was released by WWE after a relatively short tenure with the company. Multiple outlets cited WWE opting not to renew or extend his contract at that time. This aligns with Steveson’s limited in-ring exposure during WWE programming [source reports from Fightful and Wrestling Observer News, 2024].[1][2]
- Since leaving WWE, Steveson has pursued mixed martial arts competition, accumulating fights and highlighting a shift away from a full-time wrestling path. Interviews and coverage around late 2024 into 2026 emphasize his move toward MMA and other combat sports rather than a WWE return.[2][4]
- Public discussions in 2025–early 2026 frequently reference his departure as part of a broader look at WWE’s talent development and the challenges some athletes faced in transitioning from Olympic wrestling to pro wrestling, though there is no confirmed WWE revival or re-signing as of now.[5][2]
