WWE could fix this, rehire MVP, forget about the past, and let him be in the upper midcard again. Granted MVP quit, but WWE gave him little incentive to stay.
I really really miss MVP.

Sure, I was a fan. He asked for his release, if I'm not mistaken, so I don't think he burned his bridges despite all the rumors surrounding him. I still think he could've been an effective face if they continued to push him.

Yeah I miss him. He should've been a big star, but they just didn't want to push him.

I miss him but he wanted to be released so I'm not too mad about it.
Very entertaining guy, loved him since his DSW days.

Nope, couldn't stand him. He was tolerable as a heel but when he turned face he just turned boring.
Plus his in-ring work was really lacking too. No idea why people thought he was decent in the ring tbh. I thought the guy was sloppy as hell and very rarely had a good match.

I miss him a lot. Seeing the PPVs of 06 and 07 for the first time recently (I'm currently most of the way through Judgment Day 07), I've become a bit sad at seeing all of MVPs talent and potential and knowing that they'll never capitalize on it. He and Punk alone have done so much to clear the doldrums of 2006.
BALLIN'!

Thought he was on to something, but I didn't think he was as entertaining as a babyface. I thought his matches with Benoit made him look like a star, but those matches were quickly null and void in some ways. I haven't watched any of them since the Benoit tragedies.

Honestly, no. It's not like I hated the guy or anything. I honestly had no issues whatsoever with MVP. But I wasn't a mark for him, either. He was always just sort of 'there'. WWE's fine without him, but I wouldn't have any issues with him coming back, either.

The awesome original heel MVP with the pyro, the bling and JBL bigging him up every week yeah.
The boring jobber babyface MVP who did nothing of note for about 2 years, not so much.

Yeah, them doing that "losing streak" angle and taking away his tunnel & pyro really crippled him, IMO. That tunnel never should've been taken away. |

This is the first time I've thought about him since he was released... so no. I didn't mind him as a performer either, he just left a void easily filled by anyone.

Corny as hell on the mic and was wrestling every match in slow-motion for the last two years he was there.
The tunnel was the only good thing about him.

I miss him terribly, but at least I can hope that he becomes IWGP champion somehow.

I liked his gimmick. Wasn't a big fan of the guy who played it.

Yes, I do. I felt the WWE really watered down his character when he should've maintained the same cocky attitude as a face when he was a heel. That's what was missing and the fact that the WWE still has no idea how to build, create, or make new stars look strong also led to his downfall.
He could've been a huge face if they just kept his gimmick the same along with the pyro, the over the top entrance, and the theatrical side of him rather than the typical white meat babyface.

Not really. Kinda glad he's gone so it opens up some spots for other midcarders actually
