Seriously. Am I the only one who sees the similarities here? I don't want either of these guys to win because of this reason, the "original" guys are better. Let's check this out... David Otunga- Has a "posse" as shown on Monday Night's episode. MVP had a supposed posse a few years back, at Saturday Night's Main Event with Holyfield and also on one Smackdown where they were celebrating his first win. . - Similar build, he also sells the moves almost indentical to MVP. - Has a terrible finisher, just like MVP. - He looks pretty similar to him here. Justin Gabriel- He looks pretty similar to Evan Bourne - Similar finishing move, a move they replay in slow motion when he hits it. Also has the same set up "Kick to the head on the outside of the apron". ------------------------------------- Seriously hope Bourne and MVP don't pay the price because they found "upgrades". They're both better in every category IMO and it would suck if they released them just because they weren't "WWE made" or in MVP's case, not banging a celebrity.

That is a horrible picture of Otunga. It's amazing how fat these muscled up guys look in a normal setting when they are not all oiled up. Lance Cade was always like that too whenever I saw him live. He was practically as big as Murdoch when you really look at them right next to each other. lol

Otunga's given me no reason to watch him yet. Or Google him.
Gabirle however I like. A team with Bourne could be great, imagine them hitting the 450 and SSP from opposite corners at the same time.

Pssh, that picture of MVP in the OP is obviously a fake...... .......he has a title belt! There's no way that would ever happen.

MVP's got one advantage: He's more handy with a screwdriver.

He has more tattoos, most of which he got in prison before he became a wrestler. I see the Otunga/MVP comparison, and MVP is definitely the superior version. I don't see the Bourne/Gabriel comparison. They don't look alike to me, and, apart from them both having a flashy finisher, they're quite different wrestlers.

MVP & Bourne are miles ahead of Otugnuts & Gabriel. MVP did DO's gimmick better. Bourne flies around and bumps/sells better than Gabe. In no way can those 2 be considered upgrades from Mr. 305 & Air Bourne.

Personally i prefer Gabriel and Otunga.
Otunga has a better personality than MVP and more star power. Gabriel is bigger and can work a more realistic match with them than Bourne and his over selling.

I don't see how an SSP and a 450 are similar

I see Gabriel teaming with Matt before Evan Bourne. Also Gabriel is bigger than Bourne so they might actually push him. If he was going to replace anyone I would say it would be Matt Hardy, although he's too skinny, so maybe Jeff minus the drugs and wierd facepaint.
As far as Ortunga replacing MVP, what is there to replace? Are they even using MVP right now?

Otunga and Gabriel are kinda like MVP and Bourne if they sucked, I guess.

I do see similarities between MVP and Otunga when it comes to character/gimmick but that's about it. I do think MVP should have been his pro, though.

I don't see how an SSP and a 450 are similar Just in how they're treated, I guess. A wrestler's seemingly one big move that no one really kicks out of.
