Running high after reaching the final round of this year's King of the Ring tournament, the former Chad Gable has been impressive over the past couple of months, making him a top pick to challenge for Shinsuke Nakamura's Intercontinental Championship. A title shot could allow Shorty G to reach the top of the ladder on the Blue Brand, and it would not be surprising if he manages to win the belt in the future.

Shorty G had a short stint on 205 Live before he moved back to the main roster. He became the dark horse of the King of the Ring Tournament, beating Shelton Benjamin in the first round and Andrade in the second round. In fact, he also pinned Shane McMahon in the Semifinals, before failing to cross the final hurdle against eventual winner Baron Corbin.

Shorty G currently doesn't have a feud, but will represent Team SmackDown at Survivor Series. Nakamura and Shorty G crossed paths in a Blue Brand tag team match just last week. Shorty G is a babyface, and it makes perfect sense for him to challenge Nakamura, for an opportunity to win his first singles title.
