Yesterday as part of Monday Night RAW, we would see Chad Gable get his third round with The Ring General – Gunther. It was another hard fought match for Gable, lasting 15 minutes before being dropped.
This ensures Gunther will break the long standing record set by Honky Tonk Man in the 1980’s – but not that Gable is done with him yet.
Chad Gable Refuses To Accept Defeat – He’s Still Coming For The Ring Generals Belt
In an online exclusive following Monday Night RAW – Gable was given a chance to speak about his loss to Gunther. Gable had the following to say.
“It’s one of those things where amateur wrestling taught me a lot about this, like having these huge opportunities and these big characters-building and breakout moments at your disposal, and you gotta make the most of them. Then when something like tonight happens and it just slips through your fingers, it’s happened before in amateur wrestling, but I learned to persevere, like find my way through it and realize that that’s not the end. I promise you, in this situation, it’s the same thing. That’s not the end, for a number of reasons.
One, because I have a legacy to protect here. We can talk all the ‘haha’ stuff you want, ‘Thank you’ and ‘Shoosh.’ All that’s fun, and it’s a good time to do that to people and fun to play along with. But there’s also times where, when it’s my kids sitting in the front freaking row, and we got Gunther out there, talking to them, saying, ‘Is this your daddy,’ and chopping me in front of them, my daughter’s crying her freaking eyes out, it kind of stops being fun at a certain point. So that bothers me at a certain level.
So you have my word, I swear to you, I swear to everybody, on myself and my career, that’s not the end. I’m taking the Intercontinental Championship. I want him to keep it as long as it freaking takes for me to get a rematch. Because I’m coming back for it, and I swear to god, I’m winning that championship,”
History Has Been Broken – And It’s Time Gunther To Hit The Main Event
The matches between Gunther & Gable have been a constant highlight on Monday Night RAW – being one of the best feuds. However, Gable was never going to win the belt until Gunther passed 454 days and broke Honky Tonk Man’s record as the longest reigning champion.
WWE are trying to update their history books with people like Gunther & Roman Reigns – but tomorrow marks Gunther breaking the record.
With WWE fans eager to see Gunther move up to challenging Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship soon – it’s time for his reign as Intercontinental Champion to end. Gable has the determination to be the man to end it – which could be the defining singles victory of his career.
