Embarrassing post WWE runs

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Of all the guys that didn't immediately just fade away into local indie obscurity, Sandow has to be the worst in recent memory. He had so much hype on the internet and then he promised to change the industry and TNA was going to give him free reign to be as creative as he wanted and he came up with....a Liberace gimmick in 2017 After he stopped working out entirely for a year. Then retired.

It would have been like Zach Ryder at the height of his popularity in 2012-2013ish leaving WWE and immediately picking up like...an Andy Warhol gimmick and retiring 3 months later.

That would be a dope gimmick breh.

Orlando Jordan in TNA...

Who thought this was a good idea?

GLAAD should have been in their ass for this.

I think they did, actually.

Matt Hardy’s first TNA run was

He really redeemed himself with Big Money Matt and Broken Matt

I think they did, actually.

I remember before his character debuted there were positive headlines about a real bisexual wrestler to debut as a bisexual character. I know they had to be angry after they saw what Orlando Jordan did

That gimmick was kinda ill. It was during TNA's Monday Night War vs WWE in 2010

Too bad he was hot garbage in the ring

The Dream took his gimmick

WWE Smarks do that all the time. Cling to some in house goof ironically then work themselves into actually caring about the goof, then goof get released they complain. Then their favorite goof plays a serious character in their indie run and everyone is like Eventually, they go back to being a joke character to less success or they retire.

One of the best observations in TSC history

Damien Sandow said he was gonna change THE VERY FOUNDATION OF THIS BUSINESS.

He's someone to keep in mind when evaluating whether guys the internet likes should actually get a big push. The internet legitimately wanted this guy to get a big push because he was getting pops with the Mizdow stunt double gimmick.

People always think a push is equivalent to being the number 1 contender for the World title. It’s not.

This might be a new aew thread

Thought this was talking about Zack Ryder til I noticed the date

It's gonna keep being relevant to whichever post WWE goof these smarks give their disingenuous support to. Especially with a company like AEW that gives them free reign to do whatever. Only so many times they can give the WWE held me back promo and they're not going to stand out as a goof in AEW because the whole circus is already there
