Who is El Grande Americano? Predicting the right guy and his storyline

Overview

• El Grande Americano emerged as a nightmare to Luchadores, something Chad Gable wanted to
• Michael Cole has popularly believed Gable to be the man behind El Grande Americano's mask
• In the American Made star's absence, someone else donned El Grande Americano's costumes on WWE Raw

On WWE Raw, when the injured Chad Gable underwent for a surgery, El Grande Americano popped out of nowhere and gave a look to the members of the American Made, which plotted the seeds of doubts in the minds of the viewers. Gable, who was believed to be the person behind El Grande Americano's mask by many, including Michael Cole, might not be the individual in the equation.

It all started when Gable went on a journey to find something to fight the Luchadores, especially after losing in some of his matches against Penta, Rey Mysterio, and Dragon Lee. In one of the episodes of Raw early in 2025, one could see Gable found a solution, which was not revealed. However, what followed was something which rather became a mystery among the viewers.

On the very following week on Raw, El Grande Americano made his debut. Since then, he has been successful in beating many Luchadores, including Mysterio, Lee, and Rey Fenix, the latter at WrestleMania 41. The popular commentator Michael Cole has firmly believed Gable to be El Grande Americano due toi his mannerisms and style of Wrestling, which could well be true.

To plant the seeds of doubts, on WWE Raw, an individual wore El Grande Americano's costumes, who was taller than how he used to look before the latest episode of the Red Brand. Ivy Nile and Creed brothers refused to say anything about it as if they were unaware of what was happening. However, fans threw up the name of Ludwig Kaiser to be the person behind the mask.

Who could be the real El Grande Americano?

Since El Grande Americano has been successful in capturing the attention of the audience, his story has continued. It could well be Chad who learnt Luchadore skills to take on Penta, Rey Mysterio, and others in WWE. It is worth noting that Ludwig also had issues with these Luchadores. Hence, there could be a case for him being El Grande Americano.

Likewise, Gable was the one who went on a journey to find ways to outsmart Luchadores and the story of the new mask Superstar has been revolving around him. Interestingly, some of the in-ring moves like Ankle Lock and German Suplex have been in the arsenal of both Gable and El Grande Americano.

In all honesty, Gable could well be El Grande Americano. However, the revealing of this might not happen soon, as Kaiser could also be involved in the story. The Imperium star has not been on TV for weeks now and could well be used in the American Made's story. Hence, Kaiser could come out as El Grande Americano first only to reveal he is not the original Luchadore.

This seems like a mystery story which could either get too over among the fans or fail badly. It depends upon how the creative team book the story and elevate El Grande Americano, Chad, and Kaiser. Regardless, it definitely helped American Made, Kaiser, and some of the Luchadores like Fenix, Lee, and Penta.
