Chad Gable recently took a villainous turn after falling short in his quest for the Intercontinental Championship once again. The Alpha Academy member hinted at discord within his stablemates in a social media post following his defeat.
In a high-stakes main event on the April 15 episode of RAW, the 38-year-old challenged Sami Zayn for the Intercontinental Championship but came up short despite a valiant effort. In a surprising turn of events, Gable later attacked Zayn in front of his own family.
The subsequent week saw Gable justifying his actions by accusing Zayn of arrogance post-victory and demanding unwavering support from his Alpha Academy teammates in his pursuit of championship gold.
In a recent social media post featuring himself alongside his stablemates from RAW, Gable reiterated his determination with a simple yet ominous caption: “No matter what.”
Meanwhile, wrestling veteran Jim Cornette weighed in on Gable’s career trajectory, suggesting that Vince McMahon’s decisions may have hindered the wrestler’s potential.
Cornette highlighted Gable’s technical prowess and recent character development, insinuating McMahon’s influence in past portrayals that undermined Gable’s abilities.
As Gable continues to plot his path to the Intercontinental Championship, the terrain becomes more competitive with the emergence of contenders like Bronson Reed, adding further intrigue to the title scene on RAW.
