Rumor Roundup: Former champion quit WWE because of mental health issues, Brock Lesnar purposely injured top name because of backstage heat?(6th July 2021)

#3. Truth about Chad Gable's WWE contract

AEW wrestler Dax Harwood implied a few months back that WWE Superstar Chad Gable had just a few months left on his WWE contract. He also hinted that AEW is interested in bringing the former Olympian on board when he becomes a free agent.

However, Fightful Select have reported that Chad Gable still has a considerable amount of time left on his contract. So rumors of Gable potentially joining AEW could soon be laid to rest.

According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select, the tweet from Harwood was actually made "in jest," as Chad Gable has "plenty of time" remaining on his current WWE contract.

After floundering in the mid-card for years, Gable seems to have finally found his spotlight as part of The Alpha Academy along with Otis. The two men have joined hands and become one of the most powerful forces in the SmackDown tag team division.

What remains to be seen is whether WWE is merely using Gable to help get Otis over or if they have big plans for the former Tag Team Champion as well.
