It's hard not to root for him after watching that documentary.
Hope everything works out for him. Seems a nice guy.

I did love Leo Kruger but right now he seems way to skinny and small to be some menacing creep. He would just end up being the Just Joe of the Wyatt Family. They've already got two big guys. Rose isn't notably small where it would be awkward, he's an average sized wrestler. I think he slimmed down for the Rose gimmick as well, he may beef up again if he's going back to Kruger. Anyways, one can be skinny and creepy. I've seen it.

Hey, anything to give this guy something to do that isn't lame. I think he'd fit in just fine. Hopefully they let the family grow from there and not just do this for the 3-on-3 at SummerSlam. Bray recruiting guys spinning their wheels can be entertaining to watch from a transformation standpoint.

As long as they build it up right and not just have people show up in Wyatt attire out of nowhere just because.

Does the Rusev/Lana feud count? No. To elaborate. I don't think we're supposed to think this angle with Rusev and Lana is supposed to be funny. So it's not the same. What I'm taking about is in the modern twitter/social media era we've seen case were someone who had been working a goofy gimmick is transitioning to a more serious/darker gimmick and they tweet out an image. Then if it is acknowledged on Raw Cole or JBL will talk about how serious and dark said person is becoming. Now the opposite would be someone who had been in a serious/dark gimmick who was transitioning to a goofy gimmick who tweeted a picture of themselves and then have Cole or JBL talk about how light hearted and goofy they were.

Have any pictures surfaced since he's been off TV? He might be regrowing his beard. EDIT: Nevermind just seen he was on SmackDown! last week, but I did find this: Freddie Mercury?

Yeah, if they're going to change the name, Leo Krueger might be a bit of a stretch...but maybe Adam Kruger? Adam Wyatt? Adam Lost? A lot of potential... I don't think it'd be too hard. If he were to join the Wyatt Family Bray just needs to get into his head "Why are you living this lie?" "They abandoned the fake you" "It is time to be who you really are...Leo" Then let Bray do an introduction in the ring. Hell, you can turn "adam rose" chants into heat for him. Without the Wyatt Family it is harder but you stretch it over a few weeks with some low level guy talking about the Myth of Leo Kruger with Rose getting more and more pissed with each mention until he snaps, talks about trying to change but people not accepting him and finally low level guy not letting sleeping dogs lie when it comes to Kruger so he's back.

Can anyone link to some good Leo Kruger stuff? My only familiarity with the character are the brief clips shown in that ESPN special.

Has to be late 2011/first half 2012 FCW era judging by Ambrose's presence and Leo still as a prettyboy rather than a poacher.

Just what was Leo Kruger supposed to be? I read somewhere he was intended to be a bounty hunter.

Maybe they should call him "Adam Fell". I saw this yesterday, laughed at the wordplay, clicked the like button and moved on. When I read the thread again today, however, I thought about it a little more. Say "Adam Fell" out loud a few times. It's actually a fairly kick-ass name, and it has vaguely religious connotations that would suit the Wyatt family gimmick. Yeah, the pun would be a little cheesy, but it's wrestling. It may in fact be a better moniker for him than Leo Kruger, if the Wyatt rumors are true. Make it happen, WWE creative.
