“This Is Bad”, “Massive L”: Triple H Faces Severe Backlash Online as WWE Confirms Gunther’s Next Title Challenger

Ever since Triple H has taken over as the Creative Head of the WWE, the storylines have become interesting again. A lot of the fans who expressed frustration with Vince McMahon’s blatant ignorance of fans’ desires came back to see the weekly events.

However, WWE’s roster is so large that it is almost impossible to highlight everyone regularly. Perennial mid-carder Chad Gable has suffered the fate, but fans have come to his rescue under the Triple H regime amidst the IC Championship match booking at Payback.

Gable fans disappointed as WWE hints at Gunther vs McIntyre at Payback

The leader of The Alpha Academy faction Chad Gable won the fatal 4-way match involving Ricochet, Matt Riddle, and Tomasso Ciampa. He is next in line to face the Ring General Gunther in an attempt to stop his juggernaut run with the IC Championship.

However, fans have started pouring in disappointment over the news of a potential loss for the ‘Shoosh’ guy even before his match against Gunther. A post from Crispy Wrestling is evidence of fans’ disappointment with WWE’s creative booking for Gable.

Crispy Wrestling, a wrestling fan account on Twitter, tweeted on 14th August with a picture of a surprised Seth Rollins. The caption read “WAIT CHAD GABLE VS GUNTHER IS HAPPENING NEXT WEEK AND NOT PAYBACK??? #WWERaw.”

The caption referred to the title match where #1 contender Chad Gable would take on the Ring General. Fans who have backed Gable for his in-ring abilities assumed the match to be for WWE PLE Payback.

Fans called it bad booking for not having this David (Gable) vs. Goliath (Gunther) match. Here’s how they expressed their disappointment.

One fan tweeted “Massive L”

Another fan called it out as bad booking for Gable.

One fan did not hesitate to downgrade Payback PLE for this.

Another fan called out Vince McMahon because of the bad-booking

McIntyre is a solidified upper-card player and bona fide Main eventer in the company. However, once in a while, fans love seeing talented wrestlers climb up the ladder. WWE Universe shares the same sentiment for Chad Gable, but it looks like Gable will have to wait for his push.
