Caveira Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I Google the #. How on earth do you not know you’re about to be fired? He had one televised match in 3 years right? He absolutely does not deserve a wrestle off. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FanOfPurdueWrestling Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 This sucks, but a wrestleoff would undermine Parris and cause a lot of commotion no matter the outcome. he’s turned his attention from int. wrestling, I don’t blame him, but USA wrestling cannot bend over for him just bc he’s down on his luck now.

Wrestleknownothing Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I look forward to hearing how he got here. By here I mean someone who doesn't matter. From the first big NIL/employment contract, to a slow slide toward irrelevance, to a series of flirtations with returning to the place he has relevance, to a weird backtrack, to a fast slide to finally arrive at irrelevance just in time to miss out by mere weeks a chance to matter again. I would love to here his version of conversations had with WWE bosses and the decisions made. Knowing what both parties know now I have to believe neither would have chosen that contract followed by a waste of so many prime years. No third NCAA title, no World title, no second Olympic title, no WWE success either. At what price? 5 1 Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have done it all and probably still landed in WWE. Maybe Another lesser promotion picks him up or he capitalized off his “comeback” to USA wrestling.

de4856 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Well it will be interesting to see what Gable’s next move will be, does he return to wrestling or does he move on to MMA. I am sure Dana White would love to have him. But it could be that Gable has other plans altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UFC is owned by the same parent company as WWE, and at this point, UFC is more about entertainment than actual athletics/competition. It would have made zero sense to keep him hidden for three years and then have him try UFC. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threadkilla Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 His brother Bobby is still on the WWE roster and performs for NXT. Apparently he is a much better showman than Gable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antitroll2828 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 He is still younger then everyone on the Olympic team except brooks , he can step back into training tomorrow and by next year the spot is his 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Energy Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 (edited) Hoping he has pocketed at least $500k he can invest. Don’t touch. With real rate of return of 5% he can have almost $3M in today’s dollars in 35 yrs or perhaps $6M+ in nominal terms. Good nest egg for retirement. And that is before he adds to it from whatever career he picks. Edited May 4 by Dark Energy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le duke Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Gable is a pup. Let him grow up.Correct.Assuming he hasn’t messed himself up physically in pre-WWE, he could very well come back and make multiple Olympic teams. Maybe this will light a fire under his ass and he’ll light up Zare/Massoumi in 2028 for, and in front of, the good ol’ US of A.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Market has far surpassed that the past 5, 10, 15 and 20 yr periods. Doesn’t guarantee future but I went with a reasonable figure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
