American pro wrestler currently wrestling for WWE. Known for his amateur wrestling background, won a 2004 Minnesota High School State Championship and represented the USA in the 2012 London Olympics.
Was a mainstay of WWE's Mexico tours from 2017-2024, but his Mexican/lucha breakthrough came in 2025.
El Grande Americano
After losing to Penta in the latter's WWE debut, Gable went on a "quest" to discover the ways of lucha libre. Returned to TV weeks later wearing a lucha mask and using the name El Grande Americano, all while denying it was him under the mask. Though the gimmick has received some negative reception from WWE's Mexican audience as an "insult" to lucha libre, other Mexican fans support Gable and are closely watching to see what El Grande Americano does next.
It was as El Grande Americano that Gable got his first WrestleMania victory, defeating Rey Fenix at Wrestlemania 41. It was as El Grande Americano that Gable won his first WWE singles title, defeating Dragon Lee to win the WWE Speed Championship on May 5 (taped for the show two nights later), and also qualified for 2025 Money in the Bank as El Grande Americano.
As himself, Gable unsuccessfully challenged Hijo del Vikingo for the AAA World Heavyweight Championship in the main event of WWE/AAA World Collide on June 7. The El Grande Americano mask made its Mexican debut in AAA on July 25, but played by a different wrestler.
