Former WWE star claims Chad Gable could be successful in MMA

Former WWE Superstar Matt Riddle recently suggested that Chad Gable would be able to have success in the world of MMA.

Speaking with Sportskeeda Wrestling in an exclusive interview, The Original Bro mocked CM Punk's time in the UFC, before naming several stars he believed could be successful in the sport. Riddle named Gable, Otis, and Angelo Dawkins as stars who could do well in MMA.

"Not CM Punk. No disrespect. He tried it and it didn't go good. No disrespect. Somebody who I think would be really good if he tried jiu-jitsu would be someone like Chad Gable. He could probably transition to mixed martial arts and dominate with his wrestling. If he gets a couple of 'jitz' guys and a couple of strikers, then he'll smash the mat with them. I think he and Otis, I'm pretty sure that guy can take a punch. He can take a lickin' and keep on kickin'. Even Angelo Dawkins, high-level wrestler. For his size, so athletic. There are probably a lot of guys on that roster that people sleep on who would be dangerous on the street." (2:43-3:28)
