10 Wrestlers WWE Must Not Rehire

10. Gable Steveson

This just didn't work out, did it?

Gable Steveson was likened to Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle from the off due to his amateur and Olympic achievements. That was a mistake, one that quickly caught up with WWE execs once they realised Gable didn't quite take to their brand of wrestling like a duck might to water. Steveson started drowning.

His woeful match vs. Baron Corbin on NXT summed it up. Here was a dude WWE fully expected to be a natural, but he couldn't live up to the billing and was booed heavily. Unfair? Yes, but such is life. Gable has moved on to the NFL anyway, so he'll be fine long-term. WWE (and pro wrestling in general) just wasn't for him.

Lesson learned, or one that should be. Triple H cannot be tempted to bring Steveson back for another whirl if things don't pan out for him with the Buffalo Bills. There simply wasn't enough to his game to merit further patience - it's as cut and dried as that.
