In the latest WWE RAW episode, a member of the renowned Alpha Academy faction decided to go against a direct order, triggering Chad Gable’s intense frustration. Chad Gable and Otis formed The Alpha Academy a couple of years back, initially portraying heel characters. Despite this, their evolution into a beloved tag team within the WWE Universe elevated their status significantly. The addition of new members, Maxxine Dupri and Akira Tozawa, further solidified their presence.
However, recent events have witnessed a notable shift in Chad Gable’s demeanor towards his faction. The turning point occurred post Gable’s defeat in the Intercontinental Championship match against Sami Zayn. Following the loss, Gable took matters into his own hands by attacking the champion, setting clear expectations for his Alpha Academy comrades. During the recent RAW episode, Gable explicitly instructed Otis to refrain from executing his signature worm move during the match against Zayn.

Despite Gable’s instructions, Otis, caught in the moment, performed the forbidden move. Regrettably, his decision led to a missed opportunity and subsequently, Zayn capitalized on the situation, securing the victory with a Helluva kick. This unexpected turn of events left Gable seething, as the match presented a chance for Otis to weaken Zayn ahead of their impending showdown at King and Queen of the Ring.
Looking ahead, the upcoming King and Queen of the Ring event will feature Chad Gable competing for the Intercontinental Championship in a Triple Threat match, setting the stage for a high-stakes battle later this month. The fallout from the recent disobedience within the Alpha Academy promises to add an intriguing layer of tension and anticipation to the unfolding WWE drama.
