[10.0] "Chad Gable is a fucking beast. With the correct booking he can easily become the modern day Kurt Angle since he was the in ring ability to do it. His matches with Gunther and Vikingo are out of this world levels of good."

[10.0] "One of the greatest examples of misused talent and I don't understand why. First things first, he is a master of technical wrestling and had absolute bangers in the last three years, that alone makes him a contender for any title in the company, but the problem is that WWE likes to put this guy in horrible gimmicks and when people complains about it, they will give him a very good feud, he will lose and then put in a worse position. Give this guy a 9 month reign with the IC champion and then you will see why you should've pushed in all these years ago."

[10.0] "Chad Gable is unbelievable and reminds me of Benoit and Angle mixed into one. He's smooth in the ring, has great intensity, can be technical with his submissions (Ankle lock) or even a high flyer (Diving Headbutt and Diving Moonsault). The guy has it all but has been utilized so poorly. One of my Favorites"

"The Grande Americano gimmick never fails to crack me up. I love it when commentators insist on the character's bio being factual, and am surprised at how good US American folk music sounds in mariachi style."

"[9.0] Probably one of the smoothest and most impressive wrestlers right now I have yet to watch a Gable match that doesn't leave me saying "man that guy is good". The El Grande Americano gimmick is holding him down in my opinion and he is mainly used to put other stars over right now but I think if they gave him a proper U.S or Intercontinental title reign he could really reach his full potential"

[10.0] "Chad Gable is one of the most technically gifted wrestlers of his generation. With an amateur wrestling background and crisp in-ring style, he brings intensity, speed, and precision to every match. Whether in tag teams or singles action, Gable makes everything look sharp and real. His recent work as El Grande and leading the academy has added so much depth to his character. He's finally getting the recognition he's long deserved and keeps proving he belongs at the top. His match at Worlds Collide was arguably MOTY"

[9.0] "One guy that can turn water to wine in any situation hes put in. One of the most sound technical wrestlers I have personally ever seen. The explosion & athleticism he can tap into all while being as crisp / safe as it gets in the ring is unmatched. Chad can give you more in 90 seconds than most can in 15 minutes. his character work is underrated as well & I personally was/is really enjoying the Grande Americano bit. Get healthy soon Chad"

[9.0] "What's there to say about Gable that hasn't already been said. Bell to bell, one of the best technicians of all time. He can make the stupidest, silliest gimmicks work so well and somehow isn't a top star in WWE right now. He's one of the best workers in wrestling right now and is hugely underrated."
Loe Jist wrote on 07.06.2025:
[10.0] "Chad Gable is absolutely the best in-ring technician in WWE today. Gable is an unbelievable wrestler and horribly underrated. He's a former Olympian. He can do terrific character work and has never grown stagnant. He can do serious and comedic roles well. He takes whatever is given and makes it his own. Because of WWE's superficial and antiquated ideas about what a champion should be, I truly believe that he has been held back because he doesn't "look the part" in their eyes. If he was 6ft+ and not stuck with so many silly gimmicks over the years, he'd be a multiple time world champion by now."

[8.0] "The whole El Grande Americano is such a double-edged sword. Anyone who's been watching Gable's work long enough knows how good of a character worker he is and how great he is in ring, but of course, it only took a dumb gimmick with a mask for WWE to finally push him. It's awesome seeing him finally get big-time wins at Wrestlemania and against the likes of CM Punk, but I just wish it was the normal Chad Gable character."
nmct wrote on 04.06.2025:
[10.0] "I know the El Grande Americano gimmick gets a lot of online hate. It's a stupid gimmick but that's also the point of it. If anything the gimmick is only showcasing how great and versatile Chad Gable is in-ring and character wise. Don't think he'll ever be a top top guy for WWE but he's doing extremely well for a upper-mid tier guy. One of the best in the company and should be used as a "bigger" star."

[8.0] "Highly talented and often under utilised. I really enjoy Chads work. A convincing and hateable heel is when he is at his best. He can always go in the ring and he also looks the part. At times I feel frustrated that the WWE are not utilising him to his full extent I hope this will change. I am enjoying his El Grande Americano run at the minute a fun gimmick which is giving him opportunities to wrestle a fun new style."

I don't even mind the Alpha Academy stuff but make it more serious please. Nobody who runs around shuuushing people is going to win a title. 4.5.2025 : Knocking rating down to an 8 because of lack of use from WWE"
AJN7 wrote on 02.04.2025:

I've seen enough of his matches to know that he's very good in the ring but this El Grande Americano gimmick is absolutely hilarious and makes him even more entertaining. I want to see him lose to the real luchadores though but he is incredibly talented in the ring as a technician. To the guy below me Chad Gable is El Grande Americano... all gimmicks redirect to the main profiles."
TheRealDeal wrote on 25.03.2025:
[9.0] "Great in the ring, athletic, can sell and has a bag full of charisma. A real shame Chad Gable hasn't held any singles gold in the WWE but great that he's had a lot of air time over the past year."
shipmunk wrote on 18.03.2025:
[9.0] "All this guy lacks is height and a gold medal, otherwise Chad Gable is without a doubt 100% the modern day Kurt Angle. Excellent in ring skills and move set, able to function as a funny heel and an underdog babyface, produce enjoyable segments when only given little time on screen. I do hope WWE would give him a singles title run at some point of his career with American Made, because he absolutely deserves one."
Blakeiok wrote on 22.02.2025:

[10.0] "He is not only the most underrated talent in WWE, but also in the whole wrestling industry, Chad literally got it all, Perfect in the ring, great in the mic, incredibly charismatic, he is a main event worthy talent, but sadly he can't even get pushed in the midcard division. He deserves way better"
jabroni wrote on 17.01.2025:
[9.0] "Chad Gable is the single most underrated talent on the WWE roster right now. He can sell like a champ, his mic skills and general heel persona are awesome, and his technical wrestling skills are evident in every match he puts on. I do hope they let him carve his own unique path rather than being another Kurt Angle, but the fact that he's even drawing that comparison is, itself, an immense compliment."

Thank You"

Rosya wrote on 10.11.2024:
[8.0] "Dedicated worker who may act as a good and bad guy which I find unique as few stars and superstars can switch their characters and remain interesting. Gable being a comedy heel induces me to compare him with Kurt Angle which is not that cool to be honest, because success bears when you're on point being one and only. I wish Chad Gable became one and only Chad Gable, not second Kurt Angle people as well as I are used to believing"
Daequan DaBreezy wrote on 08.10.2024:
[9.0] "Easily one of the best homegrown talents to come from the PC. Even back when he was a year into wrestling he was showing he was one of the strongest in ring and very entertaining. American Alpha is one of the best tag teams of the 2010's even with only a short time. His stuff with Benjamin and Roode were some of the highlights during a very bad time on the main roster. Somehow he made Shorty G work when Vince was out to humiliate him. He managed to make it past being a comedy jobber, to a legitimate contender for the Tag Team and Intercontinental gold. He is a guy who should have been a singles champion by now. He should be a singles champion in the first half of 2025 or it will be a major fumble."

[8.0] "Everyone knows Chad Gable is underrated hes got the look, the charisma and wrestling talent to pull off whatever is needed from him. WWE have routinely gave him characters and storylines that even some of the best careers would die under, yet hes still around and somehow better than ever. He wasnt given the chance to be the next Kurt Angle but hes definitely made being the first Chad Gable look respectable."

[8.0] "A very technically gifted wrestler with mic skills to back up a range of characters, from lovable underdog to obnoxious tyrant. Since turning heel this year, his work has been in contention with some of his best; from getting kicked off from Wrestlemania against Gunther to losing to Sami again, he's been up and down. However, this Wyatt Sicks storyline has focused much attention on him, and he is hitting on all the right gears."
Odinohka wrote on 20.08.2024:
[8.0] "It's been a joy to watch Chad Gabble shine in the ring over the last few years. Despite his defeats, he continues to retain an aura that enables him to offer consistently competitive matches, regardless of his place on the card or his size. Despite his varied and not always very serious characters, he has managed to remain solid, both in the ring and on the mic. It's high time he was rewarded with a title."
ZerKO wrote on 06.07.2024:
[9.0] "In my book, Chad Gable has been an excellent yet underrated performer since he got called to the main roster, as he has never added an individual accomplishment to his pro wrestling career as of July 6th, 2024. To start with, Gable encapsulates the technique, character and skills that this business requires. There is no denying that he is not perfect, but his ability to adapt and make his opponent look great never gets old. On top of that, our Chad guy is also capable of being both a believable underdog while displaying a tremendous heel work that you would boo out of the building when is due. 85/100."

[9.0] "SUPER UNDERRATED but clearly one of the most talented performers in World Wrestling Entertainment history. Before started tagging with Jason Jordan in American Alpha winning tag team championships on NXT & Smackdown Live, he trained for a full year to clear his pro wrestling style away from his amateur wrestling style. In 2002-6 he coughed up a lot of self profile and kindred joy as Chas Betts, battled with his own trainer Arik Cannon. Soon followed many tag team partners later, counting 3 RAW tag team championships in his abridgement career. Then singles opportunities for the intercontinental title in 2023 & 2024 against Gunther made the most impact in his stock dispute his attitude becoming very dickish plus ponderous. Yes he is a damn better bad guy but his strongest is just going toe to toe on the mat. His day will come but his reign of terror far as being a bully arrived in tenfold. Great athlete and many more decent qualities, future hall of famer that goes without saying."
blastermert wrote on 14.05.2024:
[9.0] "He deserves to be a future Hall of Famer if and only if he gets the right pushes in the following years, he has all, one of the greatest technical base, mic work, in-ring act but still no trigger is being pulled to push him forward, he deserves to become one of the all time greats but currently, rating him 9 is a bit much but I'll do it for the sake of my hopes on him."
StardomIcon wrote on 12.05.2024:
[7.0] "Kurt Angle comparisons often come up when discussing Chad Gable - it just seems Kurt Angle did everything better than him. I'll be using Bret Hart's unofficial system of rating wrestlers by look, promo, and in-ring ability when elevating Alpha Academy's leader. Chad Gable obviously has the look of a wrestler, because he's always been a wrestler. There's no doubting his toughness and this helps him get over in terms of looks. However, he is a bit small in stature which I believe hurt his push as he tried to dethrone Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship, as WWE favors larger wrestlers. Moving on to promo skills, his mic work often falls flat as he often begins by forcing one of his catch phrases that aren't truly catchy or entertaining. "Shoosh" and "Thank you" don't do much for me. Luckily, Gable has been rounding out his mic work a bit during his feud with Sami Zayn as he is getting more personal, often talking about his family and how meaningful winning a championship would be. Lastly, Chad has great ring skills, but like everything else, I feel like Kurt Angle already did everything he does, but a bit better. Angle's moonsault was prettier while his ankle lock was more psychotic. Angle was great at making an audience laugh with his All-American good boy gimmick, yet could transform into a total monster in the ring. I hate to compare Gable to another wrestler, but it's just difficult not to when you see someone who has a similar background doing similar moves while wearing similar ring gear. Regardless, Chad Gable matches are always some of the best on a WWE card, and I look forward to seeing him carve out a more unique character during his 2024 heel turn."

He can have a great match with absolutely anybody and make them look like a million bucks. He is starting to really hit his stride in terms of charisma and talking on the microphone which is starting to turn him into the total package. It is criminal that as of right now that he is only being used as cannon fodder and losing week after week! Let him do what he is amazing at and let nature take its course. He really deserves a push and at least the US/IC Title for the work he has done."

By far one of the absolute best WRESTLERS of the company & even the world. Any time he steps in the ring, you know something special is about to go down. The term next Kurt Angle gets thrown around a lot. If there is ANYONE in the world to be coin that term. Its Chad Gable. Such a tremendous talent. World Champion material."

[9.0] "He's so good in the ring, but his catchphrase gimmick is kind of irritating and holding him back at this point. It'd be an easy problem to fix if they ever decide to pull the trigger on him as a real singles competitor because he's often the highlight of RAW."

I hope to see Chad for many more years to come and hopefully he will eventually get some championship runs."
