If this gives me a feud between Gable and Lesnar - bring it on. I too enjoy the concept of Lesnar sharing a kiss with Chad Gable.

He's like an inch or two shorter than Angle, got a top amateur pedigree and is far more talented so he should be fine. Chad Gable's (billed) height: 5 ft 8 in (173 cm) Kurt Angle's (billed) height: 6 ft 0 in (183 cm) I could see it be a problem for him. Sure, there were other not-so-tall champions before (Benoit, Bryan, Guerrero), but he might just be below a certain level to measure up against the giants of the business.

That is a worked height for Angle, going by the Olympic measures, Angle is 5'9 or 10" while Gable is 5'8". He's got the charisma and talent that makes me think that won't be a problem.

From what I've seen of them, they both have potential to be big.
They have talent, charisma to burn & both are good looking dudes

He's possibly my favorite NXT guy right now. That said, his name is really not going to do him any favors. It just sounds very wimpy to me and I could see casual fans not treating him seriously. Then again, Kurt Angle isn't a very intimidating name either and he did alright for himself. We'll see, but so far Gable has shown a ton of promise.
