Backstage News On Gable Steveson’s Return To NCAA Wrestling | PWMania - Wrestling News
As PWMania.com previously reported, former WWE star Gable Steveson is making his return to collegiate wrestling with the University of Minnesota.
www.pwmania.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- Gable Steveson announced a return to Minnesota wrestling for one final NCAA season around late 2024, after public indications he would pursue pro opportunities; this was covered by multiple outlets including On3 and WrestleTalk at the time. [sources include On3: “Gable Steveson announces return to Minnesota wrestling for final year of eligibility”; WrestleTalk: “Gable Steveson Has 'Interest' In Returning To NCAA Competition Next Year Says Coach”][2][3]
- Subsequent reporting in 2025 noted renewed focus on his college comeback, with continued coverage about his decision to compete for the Gophers and the response from media outlets tracking NCAA wrestling activity.
