News regarding WWE’s plans for the El Grande Americano gimmick when Chad Gable returns

Earlier this week, it was reported that Chad Gable is expected to make his WWE return from injury in early 2026. According to WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select, the belief is that there is “no immediate plan” to move Ludwig Kaiser away from the El Grande Americano gimmick that was that originally portrayed by Gable. It was also stated that there are no plans to move Tyler Bate and Pete Dunne from their roles as “Bravo Americano” and “Rayo Americano.”

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com noted that creative discussions have already taken place regarding “how to integrate Chad Gable and possibly the Creeds into the angle” involving the Americano faction. During the December 29th 2025 edition of RAW, the Creed bothers could be seen in the background as the Americano faction exchanged words with AJ Styles, Dragon Lee, and Je’Von Evans.
