Gable lost his mask earlier this year and turned his attention to making amends to the Luchadores he beefed with, including Penta. Gable earned a shot at Penta’s WWE Intercontinental Championship and the two did battle at SummerSlam on Sunday.

Gable survived a Mexican Destroyer on the apron as well as the rest of Penta’s high-flying moves. He then put Penta in an ankle lock and made the superstar tap out. He became the intercontinental champion on his sixth attempt. It’s also his first singles title.

As he realized one of his dreams had finally come true in front of his family and his home crowd, Gable broke down into tears. He was immediately overcome with emotion and tears began to trickle down his cut face.

Penta wrapped the Intercontinental Championship around Gable’s waist as Gable’s family came into the ring.

Penta’s reign ends after 153 days. He won the title in March against Dominik Mysterio. It’s unclear what’s next for Penta or who will become the No. 1 contender for the intercontinental champion.
