Chad Gable’s fervent desire to demonstrate the magnitude of his potential Intercontinental Championship opportunity resonates deeply with wrestling fans and insiders alike.
Set to participate in a high-stakes gauntlet match on WWE Raw, Gable finds himself among six contenders vying for the chance to dethrone Gunther and claim the Intercontinental gold at WrestleMania 40.
While Gable’s initial attempt on a September 2023 episode of Raw ended in disappointment, his determination surged when Gunther’s actions elicited tears from Gable’s daughter.
Since that moment, Gable has been on a relentless pursuit of redemption, fueled by a burning desire to right the perceived wrongs and claim victory.
His unwavering commitment to this cause was palpable in a recent social media post, where Gable shared a poignant vignette, baring his soul and articulating the profound significance of the upcoming match.
“In the depths of my mind, I’ve been grappling with the memories of that fateful match against Gunther since last September. There’s no pain quite like seeing your child in tears, but if I’m to wipe away those tears and restore joy to her eyes, I must confront this new gauntlet head-on.”
Monday’s gauntlet match has implications larger than could possibly be put into words, but I created this piece to do my best to convey what this opportunity means to me above and beyond just Wrestlemania.
I’ll see you Monday night.
Thank you.
And enjoy…

Acknowledging the formidable obstacles that lie ahead, Gable views the match as an opportunity for personal redemption and a chance to rewrite the narrative of his past failures.
“It’s a rare chance to rewrite the pages of history, an opportunity that doesn’t come around often. I am determined to seize it with both hands and emerge as a beacon of resilience, a testament to the indomitable human spirit. I will endure every trial and tribulation because, for Chad Gable, this match holds a significance that transcends mere competition.”
From a storyline perspective, Gable and Sami Zayn have emerged as the standout contenders, each possessing a compelling narrative that adds depth to the impending showdown.
Alongside them, Ricochet, JD McDonagh, Bronson Reed, and Shinsuke Nakamura round out the formidable lineup, promising an exhilarating spectacle that will captivate audiences and leave an indelible mark on the annals of sports entertainment.
