So same as he was doing before? Jordan had a goofy fun charisma with Gable. I would dare to say Jordan has less charisma than current Benjamin.He is that bland. If he had that goofy charisma he wouldn't be floundering so hard right now.(he still would because of crappy gimmick,but he wouldn't be hated by everyone)

Dude got a good showcase tonight despite eating the pin fall. His deadlift germans are good spots and each showing he’s getting better. The best thing that could have happened to him was the fact he didn’t get chosen for the Kurt angle son gimmick Honestly, I think Gable could have made the 'Kurt's son' thing work, because he's got that same natural goofy likeability to him that Kurt has/had. Between Gable and Jordan, Gable is a better talker and has more personality, they're pretty equal as far as in-ring talent goes, but the only real advantage Jordan has is being taller, which was probably the deciding factor when Vince came up with the idea. I guarantee that if it really was down to Gable or Jordan, Jordan would get the nod due to being black. I can just picture Vince laughing his ass off "Get it? Because you're so white. You have a black kid. It's funny pal"

Good lil worker. Though, what's with the Shelty hate in this thread? I think he has been pretty solid so far, and bet he busts some shit out once him and Gable get a real match with The Usos or New Day. I think we all respect Shelton and most of us like him well enough. Him and Gable are just a bad pairing though. He should either have been his manager/mentor or played the Finlay role of mid-2000s of respected veteran who has solid matches with up and comers.

I mean there's no denying casual racism is a thing in the WWE but I don't think this is a particular case.

Should've been Gable in Dolph's spot at Clash of Champions. Heel Gable with the US Title would be great.

Guy looked like a beast. I definitely see at least a U.S title run in his future.

It's like... "Here's Shelton Benjamin, he's Gable's new partner. Enjoy." He really needs to get to show more than that he's still a great wrestler

Gable could be a future main eventer if he’s given the opportunity. Great in the ring, decent on the mic, great look..dude has it all, get rid of Shelton cos this team is going nowhere.

Shelton has always put me to sleep. Even when doing ridiculous spots, the guy bores me. I know others are huge fans of his, but hiring him felt like a massive backwards step and then he's holding Gable back.
