The world of professional wrestling is abuzz with contract news. WWE Superstar Chad Gable is the latest performer to draw attention as his current deal with WWE expires. According to Fightful Select, unless a new agreement is reached, Gable’s WWE contract expires late next week, with no details of a new deal yet in place.
Gable has been a prominent figure on WWE TV since Triple H assumed creative direction of the company in 2022. His Alpha Academy stable has become a fan favorite, even after Gable turned heel on the April 15 edition of “WWE Raw.”
Reports indicate that WWE is keen to retain Gable and offer him a new deal. However, if he reaches free agency by the end of next week, the former Olympian is expected to garner significant interest from outside companies. This interest extends beyond professional wrestling, as several MMA promotions have expressed a desire to book Gable if he becomes available.
Gable has found considerable success in WWE since signing with the company in 2013. He won the NXT Tag Team Championship and the WWE Smackdown Tag Team Championship with Jason Jordan as part of American Alpha. Later, he captured two WWE Raw Tag Team Championships in 2019 and 2022 with Bobby Roode and Otis as his partners. Since 2023, Gable has been focused on capturing the WWE Intercontinental Championship. However, if a new contract isn’t signed, his goal of becoming Intercontinental Champion might still need to be fulfilled.
