5 Superstars who could be the mystery hacker if WWE revisits the storyline

#4 Chad Gable (WWE SmackDown)

Chad Gable (aka Shorty G) formed a short-lived tag team with Mustafa Ali on WWE SmackDown in late 2019. He went on to feud with Sheamus in early 2020 before taking a break from in-ring competition between February 14 and May 29.

Interestingly, although Gable appeared on the same episode of WWE SmackDown when the first glitches occurred in the Bayley vs. Carmella match and during Elias’ entrance, he did not compete at all whenever the hacker made appearances on the show.

One Twitter user even altered the sound of the hacker’s messages and found out that the unedited voices appeared to reveal the hacker(s) as Ali and Gable.

SCROLL PAST IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHO'S HACKING SMACKDOWN. Please don't spoil it for others who want to watch it happenCredit to Metal Lord - James Lynch (couldn't find their @) for doing the 1st. I turned up the 2nd video by 6 semitones & found something very interesting pic.twitter.com/Uk6xkQv7OU

This theory would certainly make a lot of sense. Ali and Gable suddenly stopped teaming together in December 2019 and they were both off WWE television during the time that the hacker’s videos aired on SmackDown.

When you consider that the hacker also appeared to target tag teams at one stage, there is every chance that Gable was going to be revealed as one of the hackers alongside Ali.

With Ali now on RAW, could WWE allow Gable to run with the hacker storyline by himself on SmackDown?
