Even though Gable lost the match, a new star was born

Even though Gable would succumb to 'The Accolade', he showed exceptional skills in the ring, as his amateur wrestling background translated wonderfully into professional wrestling moves. He moves with utmost grace and fluidity.
His matches are a pleasure to sit back and relish, even without the aid of his teammate. We see great things in Chad Gable's future, and this week was the start of his ascent to the mountain top.
