Chad Gable, the former NXT Tag Team Champion, is currently facing the end of his WWE contract this summer. Despite recent reports suggesting that he may become a free agent by the time he challenges Sami Zayn for the Intercontinental Championship at Clash at the Castle on June 15, it seems that WWE is confident he will stay with the company.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there has been interest from other promotions like AEW in signing Gable. However, it appears that WWE has offered him a deal that he finds too good to pass up. While there has been no official confirmation of a new contract being signed, sources from Fightful Select and PWInsider indicate that both WWE and AEW believe Gable will remain with WWE.
If Gable does indeed defeat Zayn at Clash at the Castle, it will not only solidify his commitment to WWE but also mark his first singles title in the company. Previously, Gable has won four championships as part of a tag team, but a singles title would be a significant achievement for him.
As Gable’s future with WWE seems secure, fans can look forward to seeing more of him in the ring and potentially even more championship victories in the future. The Olympian’s skills and dedication to his craft make him a valuable asset to the company, and it’s no surprise that both WWE and AEW are eager to keep him on their roster.
