World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has been a launchpad for many wrestlers to achieve superstardom, and Chad Gable could be next in line. As a seasoned wrestling news reporter, I delve into the journey and potential of this formidable athlete who’s recently caught the eye of former WWE Universal Champion, Braun Strowman.
Chad Gable, a former Olympian turned professional wrestler, has had a significant year in 2023, ascending through the WWE ranks with noteworthy performances. Gable, a multitime tag team champion known for his partnership within Alpha Academy, has expanded on his in-ring repertoire, particularly through his compelling series of bouts for the Intercontinental Championship against GUNTHER.
His efforts have not gone unnoticed, as Gable’s skill set has been on full display, not only on WWE’s flagship program, Monday Night Raw, but also on NXT. There, he joined forces with Otis, Maxxine Dupri, and Akira Tozawa, showcasing his versatility and determination. Despite not clinching gold this year, the breakout star’s ascendancy could well define WWE in 2023.
In a world where talent and opportunity don’t always align, one major WWE star sees championship substance in Gable. Braun Strowman, one of the most dominating figures in WWE history, recently lent his voice to Gable’s growing list of supporters. In an interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Riju Dasgupta, Strowman offered high praise for Gable, stating, “Honestly, someone that I see world championship caliber in is Chad Gable.”
Strowman, who has stood at the apex of WWE’s competitive landscape himself, elaborated on his support for Gable: “If we’re gonna say underrated and stuff like that, that would be if I have to nail it down, it would be Chad Gable.” Strowman emphasized Gable’s comprehensive abilities saying, “He has all the tools, he can talk, he’s got the look. He can go like nobody else.” Moreover, he praised Gable’s character: “When it really boils down to it, he’s an unbelievable human being, so I would love to see him get a shot at the big gold because he deserves it.”
Gable’s last outing was in a six-person tag team match on WWE NXT’s December 5 edition, where alongside Otis and Maxxine Dupri, he faced off against The MetaFour comprised of Noam Dar, Oro Mensah, and Lash Legend.
Demonstrating expertise inside the ropes and a work ethic that garners respect from peers like Braun Strowman, Gable is undeniably on the radar for WWE’s top honors. His consistent performances beg the question: When will we see Chad Gable rise to claim world championship glory?
