Former Olympic Wrestler Said to be Impressing WWE Officials in NXT

As we reported earlier in the week, former United States Olympic wrestler Chas Betts made his NXT in-ring debut at live events this past weekend in Florida, and he’s wrestling under the name Chad Gable.

According to The Wrestling Observer, Gable impressed NXT officials with his debut bouts, and it was noted when he had his WWE tryout last year, he had the best tryout of any non-indy wrestler the company has brought in to NXT so far.

Gable is working a gimmick similar to that of Kurt Angle, as he sports a USA singlet and incorporates amateur style wrestling maneuvers into his offense.
