Coming out of this Saturday’s show, it should be interesting to see what Gable will do next in WWE after this Mask vs. Mask match.

Here are seven potential WWE plans for Chad Gable his unmasking.

7. Reuniting American Made

Over the past few weeks, The Creed Brothers has been helping The Original El Grande Americano in his rivalry with El Grande Americano in WWE and Lucha Libre AAA.

This led to Julius and Brutus Creed putting on some masks of their own to become Julio and Bruto Creedo.

Now known as Los Americanos Hermanos, fans have seen the former members of American Made coming back together.

However, Chad Gable being unmasked could lead to Los Americanos Hermanos becoming The Creed Brothers once more and also bringing back Ivy Nile to join forces with them in a reunited American Made after AAA Noche de Los Grandes.

6. Costing El Grande Americano The AAA Mega Championship

The Mask vs. Mask match seems like it will end the rivalry between El Grande Americano and The Original El Grande Americano.

However, WWE and Lucha Libre AAA could choose to continue this story coming off the heels of AAA Noche de Los Grandes 2026.

El Grande currently holds the Rey de Reyes sword, which gives him the right to challenge for Dominik Mysterio‘s AAA Mega Championship.

Chad Gable returning to the promotion to cost El Grande Americano his AAA Mega Title match would be a great way to continue their rivalry even after the mask is taken away from him.

5. Join Forces With The Vision

Chad Gable is recognized as one of the best in-ring performers in WWE today and someone who has everything it takes to hold gold.

Knowing his in-ring skills and what he has to offer, Paul Heyman might see him as a potential asset to The Vision.

The former Olympian could be brought into The Vision following the recent injuries suffered by members of the group.

Gable joining forces with The Vision would bolster their ranks and bring someone who can bring gold to the stable in the near future.

4. Mask vs. Hair Match Against El Grande Americano

A Mask vs. Mask match is one of the biggest matches that can happen in Lucha Libre AAA.

However, there are other ‘Lucha de Apuestas’ matches that can be used in the coming months.

Chad Gable could remain as a presence in AAA after losing his El Grande Americano mask.

Gable challenging El Grande Americano to a Mask vs. Hair Match might be the future for this rivalry following the AAA Noche de Los Grandes event.

3. Rivalry With CM Punk

At WWE WrestleMania 42 night two, Roman Reigns defeated CM Punk to retain the World Heavyweight Championship.

Following ‘The Show of Shows,’ Punk has taken some time off from WWE television in recent weeks.

Wanting to make an impact after unmasking, Chad Gable could see Punk as a way to make a major name for himself on the company’s programming.

Gable attacking Punk upon his return to WWE would be one of the bigger rivalries that the former Olympian has had in his career so far.

2. Challenging Penta For The WWE Intercontinental Championship

Chad Gable has plenty of history with different luchadors on the current WWE main roster.

When he first arrived in WWE at the start of 2025, Penta faced Gable in his debut match on Monday Night Raw.

Over the past year, Penta and Gable have been no strangers to one another and could take their rivalry to the next level after the El Grande Americano unmasking.

Looking to win his first singles title in WWE, Gable could challenge Penta for the Intercontinental Championship to rebound off his Mask vs. Mask loss.

1. Moving To SmackDown To Challenge Cody Rhodes For The Undisputed WWE Championship

Chad Gable has been a member of the Monday Night Raw roster over the past few years.

While Gable could potentially rise up the ladder on the red brand, he could alternatively make his way to SmackDown where he might have a better chance of becoming a main event player.

Cody Rhodes is currently at the mountaintop of Friday Night SmackDown as the Undisputed WWE Champion.
