WWE News: New Tag Team debuts on Monday Night Raw
Chad Gable has rarely been utilized since making the jump to Monday Night Raw earlier this year. The former tag team champion had a steady year on Smackdown prior to the Superstar Shakeup, teaming with Shelton Benjamin in their attempts to capture gold from the Usos.
Prior to that, he teamed with Jason Jordan as American Alpha, winning the NXT Tag Team Championships and becoming the inaugural Smackdown Tag Team Champions.
However, since jumping to Raw, Gable has been left off of most shows on Monday nights, but now it seems he's found another chance at stardom with a new tag team.
On Monday Night Raw, Charlie Caruso interviewed Chad Gable and the Glorious One Bobby Roode, revealing that they were now officially a tag team.
Roode and Gable took on the Ascension tonight, but prior to the match, Konnor and Viktor took a chance to bash Roode for his disappointing run in the singles division.
The match then began with Gable getting in a majority of the offense throughout the bout. The former tag champion got a chance to highlight his incredible wrestling ability, turning both Konnor and Victor inside out with exploder and German suplexes. As Gable tagged Roode, though, he seemed like a fish out of water. It looks like the WWE will be turning the multi-time TNA Tag Team Champion into a bit of a novice.
Roode got worked over a bit by the Ascension but would end up getting back to Chad Gable. Roode seemed to be impressed with his new partner, as Gable picked up the win with a rolling German suplex, officially giving the group their first victory as a team.
Has the Glorious One found the secret ingredient to his next title reign? Could Roode and Gable be on their way to championship gold?
