On the latest episode of Something To Wrestle With, JBL discussed the El Grande Americano mask vs. mask match at AAA Noche de los Grandes. He named it his favorite match of his broadcasting career and proclaimed that Chad Gable, the match’s loser, is the best wrestler in the world. The highlights are shown below:
On Where It Ranks
:
“This is my personal favorite. I have called many of the greatest matches of all time, including numerous John Cena bouts, without disrespect to him. I have also covered Dolph’s return, his cash‑in, Seth’s cash‑in, and the Dudley Boys’ return in Brooklyn. In short, I have called many of these iconic matches.”
On Where Gable Can Go From Here:
“Look, this is one of the greatest matches I’ve ever seen. Moreover, as I noted earlier in the week, I consider Chad Gable to be the best wrestler in the world, and I do not think that assessment is close to being inaccurate. Throughout each generation, certain athletes stand out for their exceptional talent. Figures such as Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, and Shawn Michaels exemplify this caliber. While many wrestlers excel, a select few possess an innate instinct that elevates them above the rest.”
“The suplexes Chad executed on the floor were executed with such natural fluidity that I found them truly astonishing. He appeared to be confined to a somewhat gimmicky villain persona within WWE, yet there was no ceiling to his potential.”
