Chad Gable goes by the name Shorty G now, following a short run as Shorty Gable. While this gimmick was not what he had in mind, he is still willing to do anything in order to prove his in-ring prowess.
Shorty G spoke to Sports Illustrated, where he said he pitched a lot of ideas to Vince McMahon. He presented promos that he recorded himself to McMahon. He hated splitting up American Alpha, but he had to prove he was ready to establish himself as a singles competitor.
“Vince finally realized, after me coming into his office over and over, listening to vignettes I created at home and reading pitches I wrote, that I’m not going away. I hated splitting up with Jason Jordan. He was my best friend in the world and we were having great matches.”
“That was the point where I could have rolled over and died or waited for them to come up with something for me, but I didn’t do that—I came up with a new idea and pitched it every week. They didn’t necessarily run with a lot of those ideas, but it showed them they’ve got a guy who is hungry and ready to make an impact.”
Shorty G is part of Hulk Hogan’s team at Crown Jewel and he might be able to showcase his in-ring skills, so it will be a good opportunity for him.
