I liked him in the WWE. Could have saw him as a upper mid card heel holding the IC title a few times but that's it.

Pretty much this. Mic skills can carry you a long way though, so who knows. A couple character tweaks like somebody said, and you could have had a guy that could at least challenge for a WHC match even if her clearly wasn't going to win. This company needs all the talkers and personality it can get

TSC has overrated the fukk out of him. Was he popular, yes. Does that mean he should automatically be a main eventer with multiple world title runs, fukk no.

Because he was NOT great, good yes.

Whats next, Curtis Axel should go to TNA to finally be called Hennig?
Nobody overrated Sandow. Calling him a talented wrestler that WWE fukked over is simply accurate.

Axel was never over, despite a couple decent pushes, a Punk fued, teaming him with Heyman. Didnt he get the IC belt?

Sandow, on the other hand, was over in every single shyt gimmick they gave him, even after they buried him and made him lose the MitB for no reason. No comparison.

pretty much...



:yeshrug: hes trash
He's great on the mic, decent in the ring, versatile and connected with the crowd consistently. Thats better than most of the roster. Instead of braindead repeating the same meaningless two words, maybe you can explain your issues with his work. Use your words like a big boy.

I wasnt a fan, just not my type of wrestler. Do I think he deserved more? Yes... because he connected with the fans. Not me personally but some fans fukked with him and he deserved a shot based off of that. I dont hate the guy.

But TO ME; he was trash, nikka was wack, he wasnt that great on the mic, Jericho is great on the mic, Owens is good, CM Punk is great, he's okay... Seth level... his ring work was basic 80's type wrestling, he was too small to wrestle big and too big to wrestle small... his matches werent compelling. The few I saw of him 1 on 1, even the match with Cena was ok. Dudes have matches better than that in NXT... he's like Leaping Lanny Poffo with a bigger build.

DESPITE ALL THAT, i'm rooting for him in TNA and im going to watch and see exactly what people were bytching about, also i'm a sucker for underdogs and redemption stories. I would love for him to go down there and prove me wrong. I want him too.

Fair enough, I disagree with some points and the too big/too small explanation is hogwash, but much better than "hes trash cause hes trash"
