Whatsupwithdat?
Seriously, though. I remember hearing how Trigg was good friends with Angle and was training to wrestle (and turning out to be really, really good.)
TNA picks him up to do commentary and some people worried about it. He shows up for the Joe/Angle Cage/MMA match. Does a great job.
Frank starts showing up as Angle's friend. Starts doing promos. Overall, being on the "heel" side. Then he starts helping Angle win matches. Interfering.
Angle is feuding with AJ Styles, therefore Trigg is feuding with AJ Styles while TNA plays up the fact that Angle and he look similar...you know, cause they're bald and stuff.
So, finally, after much talk, Frank Trigg makes his debut in Canada against AJ Styles in an MMA Style match. Trigg comes out with an American flag, bashes Canada and does his best to accumulate some extra heat as he prepares to face his American opponent.
The match happens. It stinks. It stinks hard. The crowd goes crazy hating on it including taking the beloved "This is awesome" chant and transforming it into the devastating "This is bull****!" chant. Also, they throw out the highly critical "We Want Wrestling!" chant.
The match is "so bad" that the PPV Connection actually stops working for the during the second round, causing home viewers to miss parts of the match...including the ending. Although, there was a brief flash of porn during this "outage."
An "unintentional" low blow causes the match to be a draw. The crowd goes angry with fury using the usually misinformed "Fire Russo!" chant. The home audience returned in time to see AJ Styles strike Trigg with a kendo stick to give a "Go Home Happy" moment to the crowd.
And then....
Frank Trigg disappears never to be seen again.
Was it due to the bad response? Did Trigg not want to wrestle again? Did he get overhyped and underperform? Did TNA just freak out at the amount of problems that occurred and assume he was cursed?
So...Frank Trigg...Whatsupwithdat?!
