Triple H has subtly confirmed 5-time WWE champion is returning soon after six months out

WWE is heading into a new year under the creative leadership of Triple H and his creative crew. Before entering 2026, The Game and his team are working on some changes, and the most recent episode of Monday Night RAW was proof of it. The Usos were crowned the new World Tag Team Champions after beating AJ Styles and Dragon Lee clean.

The CCO of the company might have also planted seeds for the comeback of five-time WWE champion Chad Gable. He has been away from action for almost six months.

Subtle hint dropped by WWE

On Monday Night RAW, some eagle-eyed fans noticed that during a backstage segment featuring El Grande Americano, the Chad Gable-led American Made were seen eyeing the masked wrestler.

It's not hidden from fans that the OG El Grande Americano was Chad Gable, and Ludwig Kaiser took the gimmick forward after the former RAW Tag Team Champion got injured and had to stay away from in-ring action.

The leader of American Made might be ready to return

Chad was having a great run as Americano. He even won the Speed Championship and defended his title in AAA. On the same night, he participated in the traditional Men's Money in the Bank Ladder bout. But things went awry, as just a week later, he was injured and needed surgery to repair his torn rotator cuff.

Gable has been spotted training in recent weeks, and he is seemingly ready to make his in-ring comeback. He is a five-time champion in the company and a massive asset.

This is the perfect time for Gable's comeback

The leader of the American Made faction returning at this time would be a great move, as the sports entertainment juggernaut is heading closer into the new year.

Moreover, following the WWE Royal Rumble 2026 premium live event next month, the Stamford-based promotion will kick off its Road to WrestleMania 42. The company could start a new rivalry to find out who the real El Grande Americano is between Chad and Kaiser. This could be a perfect box-office feud for The Showcase of the Immortals.
