I'd completely refresh Chad Gable coming out of that match. No more comedy. No more shenanigans.
If the crowd wants to cheer him, let them. If they boo him, that's fine too. I'd lean heel because WWE desperately needs more top level heels.
Present him like a wrestling machine. Think Kurt Angle or GUNTHER. A guy who talks with intensity, wins big matches, and is treated as a serious threat every time he steps in the ring.
Gable has already proven he can main event shows. He can talk, wrestle, and bring that same legitimacy and intensity that made guys like Angle, Benoit, and Guerrero so compelling.
It's time to treat him like a star.

Sorry about Kevin Knight. It's okay.”

If you’re gonna cut talent for not being good enough or not being over enough, the same standards should apply for the people drawing up the game plan and plays that the players are being tasked with executing.
Change nothing about this match, change literally nothing about it but make the characters Kurt Angle and Steve Austin and you chucklefucks would be calling it the best match in American history
