i mean if they have Sami drop the title this soon, why couldn't we had Gable win it at mania? and then become a pompous ass and being like obnoxious over beating Gunther?

I know this sounds crazy, but not every title reign has to be long to be good. I think Sami's reign will have served a purpose to give someone a big deserving moment in beating DA RING GENERAL and it wouldn't hurt him if they have something for him after.

Like assuming Gunther wins at Summerslam, I fully expect him vs Dragunov in Germany, but Sami could be someone to face him afterwards.

Tbh. I kinda agree Sami didn’t need the moment. Like he just had a huge one the year before, could’ve been cool for Chad to have a huge WrestleMania moment this year.

Given what we know of his contract status now, putting Gable over Gunther at Mania would have been one of the dumbest things they could have done

Nah, idk. I think it’s good to have Sami and KO away from each other for a good while tbh. I’m sure they’ve been times they been on different shows, I just can’t remember it, and they always just seemed to be locked at the hip. Being on different shows and doing their own thing is good.

Or, maybe it would’ve made him re-sign sooner tbh. We never know.

Fuck that Sami having that moment was awesome and he sold it perfectly plus the seeds of this heel turn where in that build up. You don’t have this Gable now without Sami winning at Mania


You fuckin Jabronis

I don't think Sami's reign is too short and Gable should def still win but I'll always be bitter we never got Gable's babyface moment. One of my pet peeves is guys never succeeding in kayfabe until they turn heel lol

Yes the seeds I became sad about bc I knew Gable was never getting it in his current character that was also over lol but this is a different story and also a good one, for this story Gable needed to fail

Sami's reign isn't that great at the moment, Gable winning would be the best decision, especially if that turns into a feud with Otis afterwards.

Yeah it's just two stories to me that couldn't both be told. They picked the other one that I would t have but both are good so I'm fine with where we go
