Video: Chad Gable Shares Emotional Reaction To Losing Gauntlet Match On WWE Raw

While Gable stopped short of saying Zayn proved he was better than him, or that winning meant as much to Zayn as it did him, Gable was complimentary of his opponent on “Raw,” and admitted that Zayn was able to find a way to win when he couldn’t. Gable also admitted that the loss now left him at a crossroads, one that leaves him questioning just what his direction is going into WrestleMania. He did reveal that one thing fans can expect is for him to not try to push his way into a title shot he doesn’t deserve.

“I’ve talked a lot over the last month or so about what this meant to me, and this was my path,” Gable said. “What am I going to do? Come out tomorrow and say ‘Give me one more chance?’ Beg for one more chance? I’m also not that guy. I’m very realistic, very self-aware. So you’re not going to see me whining and complaining and trying to weasel my way into some form of a shrapnel of a match at WrestleMania, where I can just say ‘I was on the show.’

“Where do I go from here? I don’t know. I’m going to go home tomorrow and be aimless, lost, directionless, questioning myself, questioning my work ethic, my dedication, if I’ve done it right if I’m approaching everything right, because like I said, this is a paradigm shifter. So…what’s next? I don’t know. That’s the hardest question you’ve asked so far. I have no clue.”
