8 Mistakes WWE Have Already Made With Jason Jordan's Push

8. Pushing Him As A Singles Wrestler

Jason Jordan had been making televised appearances on NXT for nearly three years before the formation of American Alpha and their eventual breakout success. Jordan might have many of the most desirable tools looked for in a professional grappler, but despite his talents, Jordan teaming with Chad Gable was vital to any popularity that he managed to achieve.

The excellence of both men's combined in-ring work was more than the sum of their parts, and the two gelled together in a way that served to highlight their skills and elevate their standings with the fans.

Cutting Jordan off from his partner both weakens his appeal and reduces how impressive he can look in the ring. Much of American Alpha's playbook consisted of tandem manoeuvres, so the recognisable aspects of his moveset have instantly been cut in half by the split.

Additionally, it's easier to frame the imposing-looking Jordan as a figure of sympathy when he's working with a smaller, more natural underdog like Gable. Now that he's no longer the hot tag who charges in to rescue his partner from peril, even if he's performing the same moves, the change in context makes him seem much less heroic.
