RAW star says he's ready to win first-ever singles WWE championship

A major WWE RAW Superstar recently made a bold statement ahead of the Elimination Chamber. He claimed that he is ready to win his first-ever singles title in WWE, as he previously came very close to capturing one on several occasions.

Chad Gable has been with the Stamford-based promotion for over a decade. He has held the NXT, RAW, and SmackDown Tag Team Championships. The American Made leader had an incredibly hard-fought feud with Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship.

Many assumed the 38-year-old star would be the one to dethrone The Ring General for the IC title at WrestleMania 40, but Sami Zayn did the job. That being said, during an appearance on The Jay Ferruggia Show, Chad Gable acknowledged the potential risks of setting a goal to win a singles title in 2025, as it depends on factors beyond his control.

"I realize it might be a dangerous thing to set a goal on something that you are not in full control of. Easy to set a goal if you're in control, I have no problem with that. I will deliver. I'm entertaining the idea if I'm going to put 'win a singles title' on my goals for 2025 because it's not all in my hands. I will be very disappointed if I don't deliver," he said. [H/T: Fightful]

Despite this, the erstwhile Shorty G expressed his desire to achieve this goal and his confidence in his ability to carry a WWE championship.

"I'm a goal guy. I'm a goal-driven guy. I'm interested to see what I will do, on top of everything else I do, to try to make that happen or force it to happen. I know I'm ready. I can carry a title," he added. [H/T: Fightful]
