This week on WWE RAW, Chad Gable showcased his cunning skills and mind games to outsmart Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn, with an assist from Otis. The Alpha Academy member, Gable, seemed to be conflicted, but he ultimately chose to help his coach after Zayn accidentally clashed with him. This incident led to Maxxine Dupri and Akira Tozawa falling off the ring apron.
Gable has been on a roll since his heel turn following WrestleMania XL, where he failed to win the Intercontinental Championship from Zayn. At the King and Queen of the Ring Premium Live Event, Gable again fell short in his attempt to win the title in a Triple Threat match, which also included Bronson Reed. Zayn, however, managed to retain his title by defeating Gunther at WrestleMania XL and will now face Gable once again at the upcoming Clash at the Castle: Scotland Premium Live Event.
WWE legend, Bully Ray, took to Twitter to praise Gable for his impressive character work since his heel turn. Ray wrote, “When the “bully” character is played the correct way…ANYONE and EVERYONE can be the hero. Great job Gable.” This tweet shows that Gable’s heel turn and subsequent actions have been well-received by fans and industry veterans alike.
Gable’s heel turn and subsequent mind games have added a new layer of excitement to his feud with Zayn.
