5 WWE Superstars who could follow CM Punk into UFC

#3 Chad Gable

Gable could be quite the pit bull in the UFC

Chad Gable looks set to be one of the breakout stars of 2017 in WWE, and rightly so. The 30-year-old has worked extremely hard to get to the point that he's at now, and it appears that the only way is up, as far as his career trajectory is concerned. However, if things don’t work out, there are always a few other options out there for Mr. ‘Ready, Willing and Gable’.

If you didn't already know, Gable competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in amateur wrestling. Whilst he didn't exactly get on the podium, it shows that he has a solid background of mat work that could bode well in MMA.

His speed and durability makes for a great foundation on which Gable could build quite a legacy.
