He doesn't have the charisma his dad had, but everything I hear he is a great wrestler helping all the big part timers get in shape.
Would a gimmick where is a wrestler/shooter work? Kind of like Shamrock, Beniot, Kurt Angle, Brock Lesnar - ECW gimmick? and
-- No talking just gets in and win?

Curtis Axel is where he should be as lower card enhancement talent.
They just need to stop intentionally exposing him and making him look hopelessly incompetent for lolz. Yeah, it sucks that the announce team are shitting on Axel, but we're not helping by making a meme out of it.

Curtis Axle and Zach Rider both need to get out. So sick of Rice Flair and The Rick.

He'd be great in a low level enhancement tag team. Not like Rybaxel, but more like a no nonsense, worker team like the Brainbusters.

I think he is too goofy to be serious. Still think he can be a good IC Champ just need to model him more like EY where yeah he is goofy but he can go in the ring.

I love the Axeman, and the stuff they are doing with his promos now is a good direction, what happens to him in the ring, not so much.
I would actually love it if he kept getting jacked around until Mania, only to win the battle royale and go on a big winning streak because he found his confidence.

He should be Mr. Imperfect. He's not the best, but dammit, he tries.

I have to admit, Curtis Axel finally has my attention after all these years.
This #AXELMANIA stuff has allowed his personality to come out.

He'll get over once he shaves that head or something.

They missed the boat by not making him "Average" Joe Hennig.

He should be Mr. Imperfect. He's not the best, but dammit, he tries. Mr. Imperfect sometimes misses when trying to swat the gum or catch the towel, but he succeeds a fair amount of the time. He also makes about 6 free throws for every 10 he tries. |

Here's my question.
Where is this stuff with Axel leading to? He's on TV every week and he's allowed to cut promos but he's being squashed. Is this just to try and make people think they have some kind of midcard? Did Axel do something to piss off Vince backstage like not stand up to him again?
Like..this Rumble stuff should have ended the day afterwards with Roman coming out, HHH saying this is your 'Mania main event on the line' match and squashing him. THEN HHH can go 'Just kidding, this is the real one'
Having said that, that Axelmania is so great and I want one. Reminds me of the Hoytamania shirts TNA fans made during the FOX Sports days

He'd be great in a low level enhancement tag team. Not like Rybaxel, but more like a no nonsense, worker team like the Brainbusters. I always envisioned him in Cesaro's spot with Tyson Kidd right now (with Cesaro as a main event guy). Even as a fan of Axel dating back to his McGillicutty days, I always figured a US/IC challenger/tag team specialist was his ceiling and never thought they would even try to give him the push they did in 2013 with Heyman so that alone was further than I thought he would ever get. I am still disappointed they didn't let him do more than be CM Punk's bitchboy as Intercontinental Champion. But anyway I am loving #AxelMania and it broke my heart to see one of the greatest tag teams of all time, Rybaxel, go at it on RAW. |
