Still better than the Lei'D Tapa booking in TNA. Tapa actually wins matches.

If this storyline is used to get Brodus over as a monster heel, it's f***ing terrible. If this storyline is sued to get Xavier Woods over as a babyface, it's f***ing terrible. This, because honestly, I'm sure what who hell this storyline and turn is supposed to benefit.

This, because honestly, I'm sure what who hell this storyline and turn is supposed to benefit. I assume it's supposed to do both. It's a character refresh for Brodus and it ingrains Xavier in the minds of the WWE Universe.

Poor Tensai was sacrifice for this terrible angle They're not gonna sacrifice Tensai to Brodus. Tensai will be sacrificed to Brock or when WWE wants to start pretending Ryback is important again.

Poor Tensai was sacrifice for this terrible angle They should turn him heel too and realign him with Brodus on the grounds that he was right about Woods trying to steal the spotlight.

It makes me wonder what they're going to do with Rusev when he's ready for the main roster.

I thought this was going to be a Brock thread.

He should cut a promo similar to his NXT closing promo in 2011: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJWmOO1IvK4Maybe then he could be hired as Damien Sandow's bodyguard or something like that. This promo is so good I'm baffled more hasn't been done with him, but Tons of Funk were over.

They brought in Woods as a "hey I'm happy to be here" smiley-go-lucky smileyman who smiles. No character, no hype, no persona. Nothing.
Then out of the blue he's apparently Truth's friend. To my knowledge, no previous mention has been made of this. He just appeared one night on RAW and Truth says "oh this guy.....he's my friend".
Then they stick him into a feud that makes him look like the heel, and Brodus as the sympathetic guy who's had his dancers stolen.
Piss poor booking all around. Tensai is probably doomed too.

I hope you are never one of the ones who ask for subtlty it's not as though Woods had been around for six months. Did you want Truth to talk about this guy for a month before he debuted? Truth brings in a new guy to team with him. That's perfectly logical. And the entire time Woods was with the Funkadactyls using that music the announcers made it clear that Brodus gave his permission. Once you give your okay, you can't just retroactively take it back. Yeah, he can keep Woods from using it again, but he can't change the past. He can't add the caveat "you can use my music and dancers, just don't get more over than me." And the Funkadactyls don't belong to him. Plus of course when Brodus debuted the Funkadactyls appeared with him with no explanation. Did that bother you too?

Erm...yes I did want some sort of promotion for the guy before he debuted. It's a tried and tested method of bringing in a new guy.
Yes again this is called "bad writing". It leads to inconsistent behaviour among the characters in stories.
No, because he was the Funkasaurus, a dancer with two backing dancers called the Funkadactyls. Made perfect sense.

"WAAAAAH THE MIDCARDERS SHOULD HAVE MORE STORIES" "WAAAH THIS STORY ABOUT THE MIDCARDERS IS DUMB AND NOT GOING THE WAY I PLANNED" So any story about midcarders should be accepted regardless of whether it makes logical sense?
