Well, he is a heel, I guess. Might as well go full-bore and give him something to get him some heat and make him look like an asshole.

Over/under before Tensai starts dancing: 6 months.

As borderline racist as it is, I laughed. Mostly because he still had the damn Kanji writing on his face. At the same time, it just seems like a silly video the two made and Tensai uploaded it like an idiot.

Will saving the Tensai gimmick save the Tensai gimmick?

Now that I saw it, it's pretty harmless. Looks like a dumb joke between the two on the road they just uploaded for shits and giggles until someone came to their senses.

Well talking, and being a dick would be more productive than this grunting and moaning he does currently. the gimmick is still shit.

I feel bad for laughing. Maybe its just the thought of Tensai touting.

He needs to stick with this. Honestly, this kind of direction would actually get him over. He needs to be a John Rocker type of character who says a lot of controversial things. Tell me this wouldn't make for great TV.

There is a rumored statement about WWE punishing Tensai for "making in character comments on Tout that were not appropriate" but I cannot find anything about it on anything not newz related.

I guess what they could do is, after losing once again, he attacks Sakamoto, but he starts fighting back and squashes Tensai. Sakamoto's push doesn't last long, being Asian and all, but at least he gets the quick push at the start and the crowd pops.

It should, I thought that was awesome but I've been watching wrestling for years and have seen far "worse".
It's hard to understand why the people who dressed up Tony Atlas as "Saba Simba" would have a problem with this, but again, I guess that's how the business changes. Lowbrow entertainment trying to pretend to be PC to not offend their corporate sponsor masters.

Racism is not great and is not funny. I was probably one of his main defenders here but after that video I totally that he should totally be go.
The character is terrible , he's an okay wrestler best and he obviously doesn't know handle public relation.
I also think it's appalling that some people still find racism funny.

Because you're making light of Kurt Angle's unfortunate situation with your avatar and quote.
