Occasionally, it can help to give the live fans something special, and that’s exactly what happened this week.

This week’s Monday Night Raw took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota. During a dark segment at some point during the night, Olympic gold medal winner Gable Steveson appeared in an in-ring segment where he suplexed Dolph Ziggler several times. Steveson, who went to college near Minneapolis, made his in-ring WWE debut at NXT’s Great American Bash. However, there is no word on whether he will be returning to amateur wrestling for the upcoming World Championships or next year’s Olympics.

Opinion: WWE made a smart move by giving the live crowd a special moment with Gable Steveson. This helped to boost the fans’ excitement and create a memorable experience. Limiting his audience to the live crowd allows Steveson to connect with his hometown fans on a deeper level. As a newcomer to professional wrestling, this opportunity will help him find his footing and gain valuable experience.
