Chad Gable is currently dealing with a legitimate injury, prompting WWE to adjust its creative plans for the performer. The injury was incorporated into this week’s storyline on WWE RAW, where Gable was attacked during a backstage segment.
The altercation saw PENTA ambush Gable, culminating in a superkick followed by his signature armbreaker, “The Sacrifice.” This sequence left Gable incapacitated on-screen, serving as the narrative device to explain his upcoming absence.
According to reports, the injury’s severity necessitated changes to WWE’s planned programming involving Gable. While the exact nature of the injury remains undisclosed, it has significantly impacted his immediate in-ring availability.
No definitive timeline has been established for Gable’s return to full-time competition. WWE officials have yet to confirm whether he will appear in any limited capacity during his recovery period.
