Exact Nature Of Chad Gable's Injury Revealed

Chad Gable has been written off WWE TV after suffering an injury, and is expected to miss some time from the ring.

Gable was written off by Penta in a backstage attack on the June 23 edition of WWE Raw, with it noted at the time that Gable was being written off to ‘reduce his workload’ as he recovered from injury. However, it seems as though Gable will be out of action for a while, with PWInsider reporting that Gable is set to undergo shoulder surgery within the next week.

Dave Meltzer added on Wrestling Observer Radio that Gable could be out for six months or longer.

Some had speculated that Gable’s elbow was the cause of his injury, with the American Made leader having visibly taped the joint up in recent weeks, but this seems to not be the case. Regardless, it’s being said that Gable has been working hurt ‘for some time’.

Gable last wrestled on WWE TV on June 9, whilst El Grande Americano - speculated to in fact be Gable under a mask - last wrestled on June 17. There’s no word on how long Gable has been working hurt.
