Gable Steveson’s Debut Match Ends in a Double Countout at NXT Great American Bash

Olympic Gold Medalist’s First Pro Wrestling Match Ends in Controversy

Gable Steveson, the Olympic Gold Medalist who has been associated with WWE for quite some time now, finally made his official wrestling debut at the Great American Bash Premium Live Event in Cedar Park, Texas on July 30, 2023. His opponent for the night was none other than Baron Corbin. However, the match didn’t conclude as fans might have expected. It ended in a double countout, leading to a loud chorus of disapproval from the crowd.

The match was decent enough for Steveson’s first professional outing. However, the two wrestlers found themselves brawling outside the ring, and they failed to return before the referee’s count of 10, resulting in a double countout. This decision didn’t sit well with the crowd, leading to a loud chant of disapproval.

Despite the controversial ending, Steveson and Corbin managed to win back the crowd by intensifying their brawl. When a group of officials arrived to break up the fight, Steveson started throwing them around before finally putting Corbin through the barricade. The crowd was back on their side, appreciating the exciting conclusion to the match.
