LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - OCTOBER 11: WWE logos are shown on screens before a WWE news conference at T-Mobile Arena on October 11, 2019 in Las Vegas, news: WWE News: Steve Austin Reveals Real-Life Vince McMahon Confrontation Injury Halts Storyline Momentum Gable's absence comes at a pivotal time for his character. He has been a central figure on Raw as the heel coach of his own faction. The group includes The Creed Brothers and Ivy Nile. Gable's injury will undoubtedly impact the momentum of the storyline. It remains uncertain how WWE will handle the direction of the faction during his recovery period. Gable's WWE career has been defined by tag team excellence across all brands. He first gained prominence in NXT, forming the acclaimed tag team American Alpha with Jason Jordan. The duo's impressive in-ring skill earned them the NXT Tag Team Championship. After moving to the main roster, American Alpha captured the SmackDown Tag Team Championship. Following that team's split, Gable proved his versatility by winning the Raw Tag Team Championship on two separate occasions, first with Bobby Roode and later with Otis as part of the Alpha Academy. This makes Gable one of the few stars to have won the tag team titles on NXT, Raw, and SmackDown. While a singles championship has so far eluded him, his multiple tag team reigns solidify his reputation as one of the most decorated and respected tag team wrestlers of his era. We wish Gable a speedy recovery and hope to see him back on TV. More WWE News: For more on WWE, head to Newsweek Sports.

WATCH: CM Punk mocks Seth Rollins after WWE Raw goes off air, fans react
CM Punk mocked Seth Rollins in a dramatic post-show moment after WWE Raw went off the air on April 8, donning the World Heavyweight Champion's jacket and imitating his trademark laugh in front of a roaring live crowd. The moment came just minutes after comedian Bert Kreischer delivered two chokeslams in the ring with help from Punk. The crowd at the arena witnessed Punk pick up Rollins' jacket, left behind during the heated main event segment, and slip it on while laughing maniacally—mirroring Rollins' signature mockery. This unscripted sequence followed the official end of Raw, which concluded with a chaotic brawl between Punk and Rollins. After Rollins curb-stomped Punk during the show-closing segment involving Paul Heyman, Punk retaliated once cameras stopped rolling. He returned to the ring and delivered Go To Sleep (GTS) finishers to Austin Theory and Grayson Waller before calling Kreischer back in for a final dose of action. With Punk's guidance, the comedian hit back-to-back chokeslams on the laid-out Superstars. The WWE's official X (formerly Twitter) account shared a clip of the moment, writing: Looks like @CMPunk found a new tag team partner after #WWERaw ... and his name is @bertkreischer! 💪 — WWE (@WWE) April 9, 2025 Earlier in the night, Kreischer appeared backstage with American Alpha and Alpha Academy in a comedic segment involving shirt-tearing antics. The episode also featured comedian Tony Hinchcliffe on commentary during the WWE Tag Team Title bout between The New Day and The War Raiders. Fan reactions poured in online as clips of Punk's jacket stunt surfaced. Some cheered the return of Punk's rebellious persona, while others saw it as a direct challenge to Rollins' authority in the ongoing feud. CM Punk really out here trolling Seth Rollins 😂 That impersonation was gold! Punk's got a way of making everything hilarious, and I'm here for it. The WWE drama never disappoints! 🤣🔥 — Bonnie Hart (@Bonniehartxo) April 10, 2025 He does a good Seth no doubt — Hausmeister (@witebred1) April 9, 2025 I love that they have real beef. Makes it so much better knowing Punk actually thinks of Seth like this and Seth is somewhere seething. — fictitious (@fictitiousfruit) April 9, 2025 The 10-time world champion's mockery adds another layer to his intensifying rivalry with Rollins, with their next encounter now loaded with even more personal animosity. As WWE continues its Netflix-era push into crossover entertainment, post-show moments like this keep the energy high and the social buzz buzzing.
