Chad Gable says the WWE locker room is supportive when others get opportunities.
Gable is currently a member of the Monday Night RAW roster alongside the rest of his faction, American Made. While Gable had a series of matches with Gunther while he was Intercontinental Champion as well as Sami Zayn, Gable has yet to achieve a major singles victory that would lead to him being featured more heavily on WWE programming.
While speaking on the Jay Ferrugia Show, Gable was asked how he handles not getting opportunities to be featured heavily.
"That’s one of the biggest challenges that I’ve overcome in this business; accepting that it’s a roller coaster for almost everybody, minus a few elite guys. Now, it’s almost like you enjoy these peaks and the rises to them more because you know that. ‘I’m on one now.’ It’s almost like you know you’re about to hit a good workout. You know it’s going to be good before you even start it or as you’re warming up. ‘This is going to be good, I can tell.’ I’ve tried to get myself to appreciate them more than I would have. Years ago, if I would have been on one of those, I would grasp so tight to it. ‘I have to hold onto this and tae advantage of it.’ You do your best and knock it out of the park, but now it’s like, ‘We’re in one of those periods. This is going to be great.’ You’re vibing it and feeling it. On the come down, if that does happen, we’ve got so many talented people, are you going to be a hater or are you going to be happy that you got what you got, and also be happy for that guy that you talk to in the locker room every day that wants more, and you know can do more, and now he’s getting his chance. Everybody is like that. Everybody in the locker room is so supportive of each other and they know how talented our entire locker room is. Accepting that was a massive part of staying stable, healthy, and the longevity of what we do."
Elsewhere in the same interview, Gable talked about being someone that younger talent look to for advice. You can read more about that here.
