Chad Gable says he feels disappointed that he didn't win a singles title in his recent run.
Gable is a former tag team champion, but he has yet to win a singles title. Throughout the fall of 2023 and the first several months of 2024, Chad Gable got several shots at the WWE Intercontinental Championship. He feuded with both Gunther and Sami Zayn, and he failed to win the gold.
Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Gable was asked about potentially winning a singles title soon.
“I hope so. I feel like I also am disappointed in the fact that I didn’t grab one during that whole run [against Sami Zayn]. Because I also don’t want to give the fans the impression that like, well he’s great, but he’s also just the guy that can’t win the big one, where I know I am and I know I can. But what this is doing is I think for me building that first one to mean almost as much as maybe it’s ever meant for anybody. I’ve come so close so many times, the Gunther stuff, what it did for my career, what Gunther did for my career can’t be overstated. I have him to thank so much for the way he elevated me. Then moving on to the stuff with Sami, from a storytelling perspective alongside the in-ring perspective, we got so much accomplished in such a short amount of time. I feel like for both of us it left just the right amount on the table for me as a singles guy to be like he did so much there, he got so much done, but he didn’t win the championship. So we’ve got one piece of the puzzle left to fill in, and I’m almost happy it didn’t happen then, because of what we got done there. It didn’t need it. I didn’t need it. But now I do, and so now it’s still on the table," Gable said.
During the interview, Gable said that his new WWE contract was for three years. Check out his comments here.
