He made it to main events (dragging Too Cool with him) and it was only the poorly done heel turn that screwed him up. Brodus is more talented than Rikishi, so he'll get the job done. Plus, for the people complaining about it (not here, of course), they don't seem to take into account how little people would've cared if Brodus had debuted normally after all the videos and then delays of his debut.

Eeeevil Overlord 01/10/12 2:14:00 PM #36:	"I agree with everything else you said, but are we sure about this? Rikishi was damn talented." As Rad said, I meant more on the microphone. In-ring I'd say there's not too much difference. But the reason Rikishi never had staying power in the main event is because he couldn't get himself over as a heel, even when he was given the hottest story around to turn him, and I have no doubt Brodus would be able to get himself over pretty easily. -- James - Board 8's Resident Warm And Safe, Slipper-Wearing User & The Cream of Porcupine Tree Fanboyism <cite>Eeeevil Overlord posted [p:650071] in All-Purpos...

Lopen 01/10/12 2:45:00 PM #40:	Main reason I'm behind Funkasaurus Clay (other than it being hilariously ridiculous to the point where I think I could've booked it) is that WWE already has a saturation of monsters that are lauded for their power. Henry, Kane, Big Show-- hell even Ezekiel Jackson in the midcard. It just seems redundant to have yet another one when they're not even fully using the ones they have. And with 3/4 of those guys being main eventers, you don't really want Clay heading towards the main event with that gimmick any time soon anyway. -- I tried to have a fierce rivalry with SuperNiceDog, but he made me look worse than a GameFAQs Contest! <cite>Lopen posted [p:650075] in All-Purpos...

Rad Link 5 01/10/12 2:50:00 PM #42:	Yeah, I saw an article earlier about character diversity, and how right now every heel is either cocky and cowardly, or Kane. And also how everyone is a heel, for that matter.

Lopen 01/10/12 2:56:00 PM #43:	Honestly what I don't get is why there aren't more ridiculous gimmicks popping out since WWE PG started. If the show is supposedly marketing to children again, children love ridiculous gimmicks. I'm not saying we should return to the early 90s, but I'm pretty sure Funkasaurus is the only truly gimmicky guy on the roster right now, which seems like a misuse of the demographic they're supposedly going towards. -- I tried to have a fierce rivalry with SuperNiceDog, but he made me look worse than a GameFAQs Contest! <cite>Lopen posted [p:650078] in All-Purpos...
