It looks like WWE had more going on with Chad Gables RAW segment than meets the eye.
According to a new report from BodySlam.nets The Masked J, CodyWhoades, and Cory Hays, the angle involving Gable and Penta on Monday Night RAW wasnt just for show it was done to write Gable off television as he deals with a real-life injury.
The report notes that Gable is currently suffering from an undisclosed injury, which is serious enough to alter creative plans. WWE decided to use the attack by Penta to either completely take Gable off TV or significantly reduce his schedule while he recovers.
At this time, there are no concrete details on exactly what the injury is or how long Gable will be out of action. Its also unclear if hell be working limited dates behind the scenes or staying away entirely while he heals.
The timing isnt ideal, considering Gable has been a consistent presence on RAW in recent weeks. Hes leaned fully into his heel role, continuing to coach the Creed Brothers and Ivy Nile while also feuding with top stars like Sami Zayn over the Intercontinental Championship.
Gables absence will definitely shake things up on RAW especially with his current faction building momentum. Well have to wait and see how WWE handles his on-screen absence in the weeks to come.
