Sounds like WWE was right to not sign him. He does come off as an arrogant prick in this. Yeah, the last thing the WWE needs is arrogant pricks eager to prove themselves. We all know what disasters Ric Flair, Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels were. What the hell does that have to do with it? Sure, those guys might have been 'arrogant pricks' 20/30 years ago but that doesn't mean everyone should be an arrogant prick.

Damn, that sucks. I really liked him.
But if he wants to continue wrestling, going out and working in other promotions can't do any harm. Growing up learning wrestling in just FCW isn't exactly the best option. And maybe he'll humble up a bit.

Well...yeah.
Just a guess, but I think a lot of people in FCW would still like their health and physical well-being once the wrestling thing winds down.
Boring or not, a person has to think about their future.

We all know what disasters Ric Flair, Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels were. If he really wants to prove himself, do it. Travel the indies and make something of himself, force WWE to take notice like they did with Shawn and Bret. Last they need is another Puder which he is coming off as. "Boo Hoo, they are all jealous of me because I'm different" In the meantime, they have plenty of people on the roster and, several more in the indies, that have proven themselves and deserve that spot over a him.

Boring or not, a person has to think about their future. I'm pretty sure he was talking about on the mic, tying it in to them all sounding the same.

Yeah, and some arrogant prick's like Anderson, Matt Hardy, Charlie Haas don't always work out.

If someone is an arrogant prick when he's green as hell, and supposed to be paying his dues, he's only gonna get worse over time. I doubt Shawn was an insufferable arrogant prick in freaking training.

Yeah, he should go to another company and show WWE what he had to offer and prove he's not another "cookie-cutter" wrestler. There many indie companies that he can become some sort of a star in, atleast he can make a name for himself. If in 3 year's we hear about the "indie sensation J. Higgs" than he can gloat and bitch all he wants.

I liked Jeremiah. I wonder if he'll continue wrestling outside of the WWE.

Percy Watson's gone so serious for a few months now. He's got generic music, but still has the red attire and does the Oh Yeah, just not as great. And the world is a lot less bright because of it.

I don't really see the problem, he was speaking out his mind and saying things I'm sure many wrestlers want to say and everyone else here has been saying. Sure he comes off very arrogant but he does sound confident and determined to make it. That sucks about Bill DeMott changing his attitude.

It sucks that WWE didn't want him, the dude has tons of potential. And he's different from their usual bland FCW guys who all look so much alike and work basically the same way. And most people who get ahead and make it in sports and entertainment are pretty arrogant, so I see nothing wrong with that.
