Wrestler Gable Steveson Is Headed to Tokyo in 2021 and Celebrated With a Must-See Backflip!

Published on April 5, 2021 at 11:45 AM

You may not follow wrestling, but this video will make you want to. During the 125-kilogram (265-pound) Olympic trials final series, 20-year-old Gable Steveson defeated rival Nick Gwiazdowski, which means Steveson is headed to the Tokyo Olympics! One of the highlights of the video, which you can see at 9:05, is when his fans are screaming to see him do his signature backflip — it's so impressive. Watch him, all smiles and with enough energy to effortlessly nail a roundoff into a flawless backflip (Simone Biles would be so proud!). We can't wait to see more flips at the Olympics.
