Former WWE manager Jim Cornette recently spoke about how Chad Gable was being presented during the Vince McMahon regime.
After a stellar start to his WWE career as part of the American Alpha, Gable had a tough time getting over. He was given goofy gimmicks such as Shorty G and still, he made it work. The 38-year-old star is currently doing some of the best work of his career under the Triple H regime. Master Gable had some stellar matches with the likes of Gunther and Sami Zayn for the Intercontinental Championship.

On a recent episode of his Jim Cornette's Drive-Thru podcast, Cornette detailed that Chad Gable was finally getting the push he deserved. He felt that the current creative team wanted to portray him as a former Olympian and credible athlete. The veteran reasoned that it may have been Vince McMahon who was giving the Alpha Academy member some ridiculous gimmicks to work with.
"They're pushing Gable strongly again as a former Olympian instead of Shoosh Boy. I'm pretty sure this Alpha Academy will either go away or undergo a massive overhaul. Can we assume that it was just Vince (McMahon) all along that was preventing us from seeing Gable as a talent and he was being presented as a joke? It has to be," Jim Cornette said. [0:34 - 1:02]
