Triple H could be set to repair his biggest mistake of 2024 on the first WWE RAW on Netflix
WWE RAW's season premiere on Netflix is set to be one of the greatest episodes in the brand's history. In line with this, Triple H could reignite a feud en route to the momentous event.
WWE RAW's Netflix debut will take place on January 6, 2025, at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles. Two matches are already scheduled for the special show: Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk and Roman Reigns vs. Solo Sikoa in a Tribal Combat bout. However, another match that The Game can add to the show is between former Alpha Academy stablemates Chad Gable and Otis.
What happened between Otis and Chad Gable on WWE RAW?
After Sami Zayn won the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania XL against Gunther, he offered a title shot to Chad Gable as a repayment for training him for weeks. Despite his best efforts, Master Gable failed to dethrone The Underdog from The Underground. This led to Chad attacking Sami after the match, establishing his heel turn.
Despite turning heel, Otis, Maxxine Dupri, and Akira Tozawa continued teaming up with the Olympian. In the weeks and months that followed, Chad repeatedly insulted and bullied the trio, especially Otis. Gable manipulated the former Mr. Money in the Bank, forcing the latter to turn heel. In June, Otis finally fought back, and the trio walked out on Gable. This was followed by Chad exiting the group.
The mistake that Triple H made with the Alpha Academy
Chad was hated by fans, and Otis got a lot of support following the former's exit, with the crowd cheering for the Alpha Academy on WWE RAW. However, Triple H didn't truly follow through on what was supposed to be a personal rivalry. Instead of capitalizing on this feud when it was red-hot, The King of Kings introduced two new groups.
Instead of booking a showdown between Gable and Otis, the creative team decided to club the 38-year-old with Ivy Nile and The Creed Brothers, leading to the formation of American Made. After this, Chad and his new stable entered a feud with the Wyatt Sicks. When this feud concluded, the former partners still didn't pick up where they left off.
How can Triple H right this wrong on WWE RAW's season premiere on Netflix?
American Made and the Alpha Academy came face-to-face on this week's Monday Night Show. Gable berated the babyfaces before Otis told his former coach to shut up. Gable then declared that it was time to "kill his darlings," and that he would start with Akira Tozawa.
A singles match between Gable and Akira could occur next week. With the feud finally picking up again, it can finally lead to the former RAW Tag Team Champions squaring off on January 6.
Although the potential match between both men would be several months late, fans would still be happy if it finally took place. Otis winning the match could be the group's gateway to becoming a serious tag team. Gable's possible defeat could also lead to him moving to SmackDown via the Transfer Window.
