#5 Won’t benefit: Chad Gable
After an impressive run in the King of the Ring tournament, Chad Gable had an extended rivalry with 'King' Baron Corbin. While Gable went on to prove that he is a deserving Singles Superstar, Corbin asserted his ‘dominance’ by poking fun at his opponent’s height.
The two have engaged in multiple matches over the last few weeks. Hence, it has become a little repetitive for the WWE Universe to see the same match over and over again. More importantly, his efforts were weirdly rewarded with a new nickname – ‘Shorty Gable’.
Most of the WWE fans have not taken to this gimmick. Additionally, it has restricted him to a lengthy feud with Corbin. The latter is a brilliant heel and manages to get under the skin of his opponents. But a joke about his rival’s height seems a corny concept at best.
Now that both of them are on the same brand, WWE are likely to continue this rivalry. However, that booking desperately needs a fresh outlook. If not, Gable will again be reduced to an undercard wrestler once this storyline is done and dusted.
