10 WWE Character Traits That Humiliated Wrestlers

9. Chad Gable Is Proud Of Being… Not So Short?

This one is perhaps the oddest entry here, which is saying something. Why? Well, poor Chad Gable looked like a moron for claiming that he'd overcome his lack of height to be a success in life. Fair enough, but WWE immediately torpedoed their own creation by booking 'Shorty G' in skits with guys the same height or shorter than him.

How brazen of them.

'Shorty G' was barely shorter than The Revival, Apollo Crews or his own tag-team partner Mustafa Ali. That, sent a giant stream of golden p*ss down on the gimmick from day one, and it left Gable scrambling for inspirational brownie points when WWE fans clearly just wanted to see the dude wrestle.

Dressing 'Shorty' up like a cast member of Hey Arnold did nothing for him either. This was like the bizarre opposite of a monster wrecking ball claiming he'd been bullied for his appearance since high school, and WWE wouldn't book that.

Oh wait...
