Remained steady after a wobble (6)
I believe the answer is:
stayed
'remained' is the definition.
(staying is a kind of remaining)
'steady after a wobble' is the wordplay.
'after a wobble' indicates anagramming the letters.
'steady' anagrammed gives 'STAYED'.
(Other definitions for stayed that I've seen before include "Remained, propped up" , "Stuck around" , "Remained or deferred" , "Remained or posponed" , "discontinued" .)
