Ex-WWE champion could switch from RAW to SmackDown in coming days
Singles match against Otis could determine Chad Gable’s brand future as transfer window presents opportunity for SmackDown switch.
WWE has scheduled a singles match between Chad Gable and Otis for the final RAW before the Netflix premiere. The bout comes amid growing tensions between the former allies in recent months.
Recent weeks have shown Gable’s increasing frustration with Otis, who has refused to support his questionable tactics. According to Sportskeeda, a potential loss to Otis could prompt Gable to request a transfer to SmackDown during the current brand transfer window.
A move to SmackDown would create new opportunities for Gable, including a potential program with United States Champion Shinsuke Nakamura. Reports suggest Nick Aldis could bring Gable and the “American Made” stable to Friday nights during the transfer period.
Transfer implications for American Made stable
The potential brand switch could mark the end of the American Made stable. Currently, the group features the Creed Brothers and Ivy Nile under Gable’s leadership.
WWE’s transfer window presents an opportunity to establish Gable as a singles competitor on the blue brand. Such a move would open up fresh matchups and potential advancement in the midcard division.
While previous encounters with Gunther may limit immediate world title opportunities, the presence of Cody Rhodes as Undisputed WWE Champion on SmackDown could create new paths for Gable’s career progression.
