As alluded to by “The American Nightmare,” he was sent out post-match to put over Gable in front of the live crowd, who applauded the efforts of the former Olympian. With one win over “The Ring General” via countout and surviving a five-minute challenge last month, Gable is in the box seat to earn another shot at the gold down the line, with many fans hopeful of seeing the pair square off again at the Fastlane premium live event on October 7.

While he’s found plenty of success as a tag team wrestler since signing with WWE a decade ago, Gable has yet to capture a singles title within the company, and with the audience firmly in his corner, this could be the opportune time to capitalize on his growing popularity.
