"This is what they tend to do" - Wrestling veteran feels WWE could ruin Chad Gable's momentum after RAW (Exclusive)
Former WWE employee Vince Russo recently spoke about the status of Chad Gable in the aftermath of his feud with Gunther.
The Alpha Academy member had a stellar match in the main event of RAW as he challenged for the Intercontinental Championship. He took Gunther to the limits but unfortunately came up short.
This week on Legion of RAW, Vince Russo felt that WWE pushed Gable well during his feud with The Ring General. However, he detailed that it was important for the company to keep booking him as a top star after this rivalry otherwise, he would just be another star on the roster.
"Listen Gable has been working his butt off during this whole program. I never thought they were gonna put Gable over Gunther. I don't think they should have. I just hope this doesn't become another Ricochet. This is what they tend to do. They tend to say, 'Alright bro, it's time to put the spotlight on Chad Gable. So we're gonna get Gable in a program with Gunther. He's gonna take Gunther to the limits, the people are gonna be behind him. And at the end, he's just gonna lose by a hair.' But what's so important is, okay what do you do next? If you don't do anything next, it was just all for not." [From 10:36 - 11:26]
