I genuinely didn’t see it with Omos for a while. He was tall and.. that’s it..

He always looked out of place to me. Like some random tall dude role playing as a pro wrestler. Money in the Bank was really the first time to me where he genuinely felt like he belonged. He actually has a proper attire, not just a tank top and skinny jeans. He’s been in the gym.. better physique, teeth fixed.. MVP by his side


And he was out there taking offense, finally…


Feels like they’ve finally got him right.. Omos got next :blessed:

Dude is the quintessential 80's wrestler. Every sighting I'm just waiting for him and Earthquake to magically get the drop on Hulk Hogan during an interview.

Pretty much. He would be the perfect monster to build up as a challenger for a top babyface champ but since they don't have any top babyfaces, he ain't got shyt to do.

I didn't like him in the MITB. They need to make him more of a special attraction. It should be rare when u see him wrestle and when u do he should be winning.

Said the same shyt, very rarely watch WWE but saw his first match with Styles at that Wrestlemania along with some of his other matches and was :ohhh: when I saw the MITB match. During the end i swore he was going to get up out of nowhere and win the damn thing.

I've always like Omos the day that he stepped into the ring. He is a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of the shyt out.

There is also a difference of opinion between the internet fans and the live fans. Every event I've been to with Omos the crowd was enamored with him.

Omos just needed more experience…He’s starting from scratch and was introduced way too soon on TV but Vince saw something in him. From a technical stand point, his in ring work will never be good but that doesn’t mean Omos can’t still put on a fun entertaining match. All he has to do is keep gaining experience and MVP will help him with his development which is a positive.

The monster heel style is a simple concept he should figure out. The booking is equally as important. They just gotta not fukk it up.

Here is the class he signed with. October 2018. Riddle, Xyon Quinn, Damien Priest, Humberto, Mia Yim, Chelsea Green. All but the women are still around. So he's going into his 4th year so yeah I think he's progressing pretty good considering no prior experience.
