WWE Star Expected To Remain With Company

Wrestling Legend Raves About WWE Superstar's

A WWE Raw superstar who has a contract that is set to expire will likely be remaining with the company.

Chad Gable’s WWE future has led to a lot of questions from fans wondering if he is going to stay with the company long-term or move on.

It was reported that Chad Gable’s WWE contract was set to expire on June 7th. However, Gable was announced for a Clash at the Castle match against Sami Zayn during WWE Raw on June 3rd, which led to many people speculating that WWE had come to some sort of deal to retain Gable for years to come.

There is an update on the situation because PWInsider.com Elite reports that Chad Gable is “extremely close or has come to terms with WWE” about staying with the company. They noted it’s not 100% confirmed, but people within the company believe he is staying in World Wrestling Entertainment.

Meanwhile, Fightful Select reports that it is expected that Gable will be staying where he is in WWE.

The report from Fightful also added that other performers had deals come up recently and were then put on per-appearance deals, but it’s not known if Gable was one of those people. However, people on WWE’s side as well as AEW are assuming he has re-signed with the company.

It was added also that some people in the business pushed Gable to join AEW and it was discussed backstage last week.
