We shouldn't be surprised at this at all. But I personally don't think he's being buried that much. The guys not been around for very long. And I don't think his losses to Swagger made him look bad. Simply put, someone HAS to lose the match, but both guys can win. I think he looked strong last night and even thought at times he was going over.
Now granted I do believe he would be a lot suited for Smackdown, but at least he's not a joke act a la Santino.

Did he pee in your cereal or something? No, he's just a waste of space. Note to self: KoOS opinions on wrestlers are now irrelevant.

I dont think he would be doing much better on Smackdown, TBH.
Probably just jobbing to Ziggler instead of Swagger.
He should have stayed on ECW, though. He didnt get enough seasoning there...he needs more time to develop his character and hopefully become more comfortable on the mic as well. Being on RAW will not help him in those departments.

That Kofi Bourne match was very typical of todays WWE...2 high fliers so they work a mat match so the crowd doesn't get excited.

What's wrong with Bourne anyway, do you dislike talent or something?

I'd like to hear just what other wrestlers we're talking about, because really all I can think of here is X-Pac.

I don't think anyone thinks Ricky Ortiz is nearly as talented as Bourne is as a wrestler.

Yes, but that's Ricky Ortiz, who WWE TRIED to make fans get interested in, and failed big time, with most fans unanimously saying they didn't like him. The difference between him and Bourne, however, is that Bourne just IS entertaining, doesn't need a gimmick, does a lot of stuff in his matches, and the crowd like him. Ortiz was a face that should have been heel, and the fans treated him as such. Once more. Big difference.

What's wrong with Bourne anyway, do you dislike talent or something? Suffers from the Kennedy Syndrome. Ridiculous unwarranted hype by people on here. Kennedy's claim to fame was repeating his name, Bourne's claim to fame is doing a flip.

If you really think Bourne can only do a flip I suggest you go find some of his ROH work.
