WWE Hall Of Famer JBL Praises Chad Gable & Ludwig Kaiser After El Grande Americano AAA Mask Vs. Mask Match, ‘I Think Chad Gable’s The Best Wrestler In The World & I Don’t Think It’s Close’

WWE Hall of Famer JBL has praised both Chad Gable and Ludwig Kaiser after the El Grande Americano AAA mask vs mask match.

At WWE AAA Noche De Los Grandes on May 30, El Grande Americano (Kaiser) defeated The Original El Grande Americano (Gable), which forced Gable to unmask after the match.

Fans and critics have hailed the match as one of the greatest wrestling presentations in recent memory, with JBL the latest to shower it with praise.

JBL, who was on commentary for the match along with Corey Graves and Rey Mysterio, spoke on Busted Open afterwards, saying:

“Mexican fans are just passionate fans. They love their Lucha Libre and they love their stars. They get into things and they enjoy it. That’s what you saw – them at their very best.

“And I thought you saw wrestling at its very best. I was absolutely blown away by what they did in the match.

“Kaiser created all this. Kaiser created all this with learning the language, not just learning the language – as we used to say in Texas, he wasn’t learning Spanish, he was learning Mexican. The local dialect language was what he was learning, which was absolutely amazing, what he’s done.

“When Chad first came back, we’re sitting there thinking about it, it’s easy to be a campy heel like he was in WWE with the videos with the varsity club or whatever the heck it was.

“But then all of a sudden to try to get heat down in Mexico, that’s different level. It’s not even the same business. He had a match down there with La Parka that was just phenomenal.

“I think Chad Gable‘s the best wrestler in the world, and I don’t think it’s close. That was absolutely amazing what he and Kaiser did.”
