10 WWE & AEW Wrestlers Set For A Big 2023

10. Chad Gable

It's taken longer than it should have done, but Chad Gable has finally connected with the WWE fans.

The man's in-ring talent has never been in doubt, but multiple attempts to get him over just didn't workout. Who looks back fondly at his tag title run with Bobby Roode? We know for a fact absolutely nobody looks back at the whole 'Shorty G' fiasco with anything other than disgust.

After years of misuse or plodding tag teams, Gable struck gold with the Alpha Academy, and his seemingly strange partnership with Otis has proven a success. Not just in-ring, but the duo have been comedy gold and you only need to watch the spelling bee between them and RK-Bro to see how much Gable has connected.

2023 should see him ascend.

The heir-apparent to Kurt Angle (why they didn't pick him to be his son, we'll never know), the multi-time tag team champion has everything needed to become a force within the singles ranks. There are a number of tremendous workers in WWE, but beyond Gunther, there aren't many technical maestros.

The spot is open, and with his liquid wrestling and hilarious promo game, Gable would be an excellent WWE Intercontinental Champion and with the right backing, which he seems to have from Triple H, could become a dangerous man near the top of the card.
