WrestleVotes on Fightful Select spoke with a source who indicated that Chad Gable's clapping routine for his entrance is likely tied to a larger creative concept involving the city of Minnesota.

The NFL Minnesota Vikings play their home games at U.S. Bank Stadium, the location of WWE SummerSlam 2026 on August 1st and 2nd. The Vikings fan base has a chant where they shout 'Skol' while clapping their hands together.

Gable is from the Minneapolis area.

I’m surprised cause it wasn’t that long ago they cut that one fat gay dude. Like yeh the current Evolve champ being a gay man is surprising lol progress I guess

nah that nigga was wildin, they said they cut him cus he named his finisher some super gay shit and didn't run it by nobody and one of the commentators said it on tv out loud so they canned him right after lmao i saw a post about a while back when they were talking about them releasing all the gay folks

I think she might of been one of those who wanted an active in ring career but they hit her with the "how about you be a referee instead?" and she settled

thats what they did to Thunder Rosa but she basically was like FOH and signed to AEW when it started

its a lot of the refs that they use who failed try outs but ended up landing those gigs afterwards
