Backstage News On WWE Officials Thinking Chad Gable Is Too Small
Rising NXT star may never make it to the top in WWE due to size.
Chad Gables chances of making it in WWE are likely to be hampered by his size, reports F4WOnline. They say that WWE management have concerns that at 5'8", hes too small to be a main event superstar. Gable's role in NXT right now is as the tag team partner of Jason Jordan. It started out with Jordan not wanting to team with him, but after Jordan was unsuccessful with other partners that weren't very good, he reluctantly agreed to team with Gable and they won a lot of matches together. They are a good fit since they are both successful former amateur wrestlers. They were booked originally as cocky heels that were successful amateur wrestlers, but the fans like Gable's cocky attitude. The duo might win the Dusty Rhodes NXT Tag Team Classic Tournament with the crowds getting behind them. It's easy to see why WWE might not see him as a future main event level performer because he's only 5'8" and 200 pounds. There aren't that many guys that size that made it to the top in WWE. While it's going to be hard for Gable to capture the eye of management and get vaulted to the top, he can still have a successful career. He also has time on his side since he's 29 years old and has only been a pro wrestler for a year.
