Chad Gable has revealed what was the turning point of his career.

2023 has been a huge year for Chad Gable with the former Olympian experiencing the most singles success of his entire WWE run. Gable has picked up huge wins and put on a very memorable series of matches against Intercontinental Champion GUNTHER.

“That intimidating and even Brock isn’t afraid to have a little fun out there once in a while so, I think you have to take that step and realize the audience loves that.”

“That’s what makes our WWE universe connect with you is when they can see you kind of being able to make fun of yourself a little bit, laugh at yourself and they like to have fun along with that but then, you also gotta remember that it’s a fight out there. So when the bell rings, that stuff goes away.”

“Especially in a match with GUNTHER like you talked about, when there’s championships on the line and you’re in the main event of Raw. It gets very serious very quick so…”
