Regarding the finish: when have sneaky babyface victories ever worked in this era of WWE programming? They paint the victor as lucky fluke artists, not opportunists, and as the announcers yell "he stole on!", the overwhelming feeling is usually that the winner has gained nothing in victory.

Chad Gable defeated Baron Corbin by cradling him after the referee stopped the King from using his scepter as a weapon, so there you go.

Compounding Chad's geekdom is that SHORTY GABLE seems to be his new ring name. SHORTY f*cking GABLE! You can't make this trash up.

It's what the ring announcer called him after the bout and how Kayla Braxton addressed him later on, with Gable just accepted it as he was interviewed. Complete. And. Utter. Garbage.
