Chad Gable has been absent from WWE TV since June 2025 after suffering a legitimate shoulder injury. He had surgery in July and is on the mend. Recently, the American Made frontman showed off his new look on social media.
Before going on hiatus, Gable was riding a huge wave of success by adopting a new gimmick, El Grande Americano. However, due to the former Olympian’s injury, the character was given to Ludwig Kaiser, who impressed viewers with his work.
The Monday Night RAW superstar recently shared two videos of himself in the gym on his official Instagram account. Gable was doing a leg press and looked taken aback. He seems to want to look more impressive before his imminent return. Additionally, the former tag team champion was seen sporting a salt-and-pepper beard in the videos.
