    I'd call that one a push, Joe.

      Otunga's the worst wrestler of all-time. Any other candidate is #2 and nobody can convince me otherwise.

      (all in-ring b/c as a smug gimmick talker, he's great)

      From his stale facial expressions to his stiff mannerisms, his slow and plodding movements, and the fact everything he does in the ring has the stench of a bad indy geek...there hasn't been ONE match of his that I've seen and HAVEN'T thought, 'Holy fuck, this guy is the worst ever, why do they continue putting him in the ring?"

      He's one of the guys where if they're insistent on trotting him out there to work in the ring, why not match him up with some old vet on the road to teach him?

        Punk did a Q&A today and strongly hinted that Colt Cabana was on his way back to the WWE. Also said that the NXT trainer gig was Sara Del Rey's "dream job" and that she is thrilled to have it.

          Agree with your final statement. It seems like the manager role has substantially been reduced from when I was watching years ago to when I picked up again following Wrestlemania this year. Otunga seems like he would be perfect for that role.

                I love me a tag team tournament.

                  Ryback FAILING on the finish against Albert was bad.

                  Showed he was mortal via Kayfabe.

                  Showed that Albert's too fat and Ryback can't lift that much in real life otherwise.

                  Dude has the Backpack Stunner as a back-up but went for the Lariat instead when they fucked up the finish.

                    Yeah, they kept trying of course saying Albert was countering but really Albert is just too big and Ryback has the muscles but isn't as strong as he should be for his role.

                      The Band has potential, but they desperately need a mentor. They need the rub. Not a manager (mouthpiece not needed). They need a heel that's been around for a while to completely kick the crap out of them (destroyed after an 8 man tag?), and have them go to the heel and ask for help and guidance. Would be a great way to get them elevated

                      IMO, Big Show could work for this after his current program.

                        Otunga isn't even the worst wrestler on the roster right now, excluding the kitchen occupiers. The Great Khali shits all over Otunga for the WOAT.

                          Ryback was visibly pissed because Tensai sandbagged him legit. He was just acting like deadweight.

                            Dammit.

                            Why bother having Fat Shit Albert sandbag against Ryback if you're gonna have him come down and be J.R.'s balls when CM Punk took them away not two seconds earlier?

                            FUCK STUPID WASTE MATCHES THAT MEAN NOTHING AND PROMOTE NOBODY.

                            Keep the Punk/Ross promo (damn good btw), keep Ryback continuing his crusade to protect the Old Folks Home against Straight Edge and fill that dead shit match from earlier with another filler bout.

                            Fucking Hornswoggle versus Sin Cara in a Midget Match, I don't care.

                              Yeah, but Khali has the obvious misfortune of being a giant.

                                I give Tensai two weeks.

                                One to job to the Champ(s), One to pack up his shit and go back to Japan.
