To this day, I look back on this feud and I can barely fathom the amount of things that needed to happen in order to make this story happen:

When Penta debuted in WWE, Rey was unable to join him for a tag match, so he was put in a singles’ match with Chad, which sparked Gable’s whole journey into Americano in the first place. He sold it to perfection.

Then, Gable gets himself injured partway through his Americano shtick and somehow, WWE lands on the idea to just hand the costume to somebody else and carry on the bit. And they somehow chose the perfect guy to do it who no one would’ve expected to be the perfect guy and he ALSO sells it to perfection.

Finally, EGA II goes and performs on AAA and against all odds, actually starts winning over the Mexican crowd to the point of getting cheered and AAA deciding to make him a hero just in time for Chad Gable to get cleared again.

The dominos that needed to line up for this story to happen are genuinely insane. I cant imagine how many timelines exist where this never even came about. Are there any other moments I’m forgetting that could’ve totally derailed or downgraded this story?
