WrestleMania Saturday has been dumbfounding so far! First, ‘The Usos’ smashed Nakamura and Boogs with their enzuigiri and 1D finish to retain the SmackDown Tag Team titles. Later, the ‘Scottish Warrior’ ended all the ‘Happiness’ of Corbin and Madcap Moss and Bianca Belair outmaneuvered ‘Big Time Becks’ in a sensational match to claim the RAW championship.

Everything turned out just awesome, and it continued as WrestleMania 38 rolled on.

WWE Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon, who came out to the stage to thank the fans, gave the WWE Universe another awesome moment. She provided them with a glimpse of the future as she introduced WWE superstar, Olympic gold medalist, and two-time NCAA champion, Gable Steveson.

Steveson, who acknowledged the fans, will make his debut soon on RAW. However, fans on Twitter are reacting to the future superstar’s presentation at WrestleMania 38.

 

WWE tweeted a GIF of McMahon introducing Steveson. They wrote, “Take in the #WrestleMania atmosphere, @GableSteveson ! 👏👏👏”.

Upon seeing Steveson, fans took Twitter to express their excitement for ”the future of Wrestling”.

Fans on Twitter welcome ”The Next Lesnar”

Gable Steveson has accomplished so much in so little time. The 21-year-old NCAA heavyweight champion has cemented himself as an elite collegiate athlete over the past two years. Although WWE drafted him to RAW in the last months of 2021, he hasn’t made an official debut due to his NIL contract.

The WWE and the fans believe in his potential and hope he can be the next Brock Lesnar or Kurt Angle.
