Chad Gable possibly had his biggest night at AAA Noche de Los Grandes, but Bully Ray wonders if he can be allowed to showcase his recent demeanor on the WWE essential roster.
Gable wrestled as El Grande Americano against the imposter El Grande Americano in a mask vs. mask Match, which told an amazing story that has been praised unanimously. Ray, while speaking on “Busted Open,” said he’s wanting to see how the character progresses once Gable returns to the essential roster.
“I’m very interested to see where this goes because probably the most over Chad Gable has ever been in his profession was what he just did in Mexico. He’s been doing El Grande Americano on the essential roster for some time. Did it resonate with the US fans the identical way it resonated with Mexican fans?” he asked. “So we’re asking all of the US or the remaining of the world to be as emotionally involved, invested in Chad Gable without the mask on, as Mexican fans were invested in him with the mask on.”
Ray hopes that fans in the US and world wide are as invested in Gable now as Mexican fans were when he donned the mask. Gable’s wrestling ability has been lauded by many, and Ray hopes WWE will give you the chance to make use of that to attract fans in. He feels Gable’s character worked throughout the bubble of AAA, but wonders whether it could actually achieve WWE.
“We’d like to give you the chance to get into Chad Gable, the wrestler, as much as we were capable of get into Chad Gable, the luchador. Will they offer him that chance on the essential roster? I do know why it succeeded in Mexico. I understand why in that bubble it really worked. Now you are going to step out of that bubble,” he added. “Mexican wrestling in Mexico has at all times been in and of itself.”
He’s keen to see how the Gable character does once he’s left the bubble of Mexico and returns to WWE.
