Chad Gable’s Friends Want Him In AEW

Chad Gable is on the top of many lists when considering who WWE needs to give more of a spotlight to. The former American Alpha member is incredibly talented, but Vince McMahon preferred to waste his time with gimmicks like “Shorty G” and and Alpha Academy. Fans are apparently not the only ones who want Gable to take his chances with Tony Khan’s company.

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer discussed Chad Gable’s current situation and how he’s used on WWE television. Many consider that he is misused, and there are friends in his personal circle who are pulling for him to leave WWE for AEW.

“A lot of his friends want him to go to AEW, you know, and I don’t know what the contract situation is for him, but he’s been so … misused or buried or whatever that t’s almost like you bring him in and I think he would be phenomenal in AEW — he’s phenomenal now.

There is no guarantee that Tony Khan would sign Chad Gable, even if he left WWE. It is also really hard to imagine that Bryan Danielson and others wouldn’t pull for Gable like crazy until Tony Khan brought him in. We’ll have to see what’s next, but Chad Gable is still in WWE right now and partnered up with a clean-shaven heel Otis as the Alpha Academy.
