In retrospect, do you wish it would have been Dixie Carter who showed up as the mystery reveal instead of Jason Jordan and whole illegitimate son angle?

Dixie as Kurt's illegitimate son?
Now that you mention it... yes. I do wish that was the reveal.

Yes because instead a talented but nondescript person is now stuck as yet another victim of atrocious booking.

I love how underwhelming the whole thing was. Like, they teased it being this shocking huge thing that could ruin Kurt's life/career and he comes out like, "So I banged this chick in college and it turns out Jason Jordan is our son. Later."
Having a kid they didn't know about is hardly the worst thing a wrestler's done in or out of kayfabe.

I don't like the idea of Dixie getting rewarded with WWE work after all of her bullshit.

No, that shouldn't have ever been suggested.

I got such enjoyment out of the fact that Jordan and Angle had to walk around all water-eyed like they truly were long lost father and son. Such a funny, odd job to do. I've no problems with the Jordan/Angle stuff, I think it's actually too bad that audiences can't play along with stuff like that. I think Jordan's gonna turn things around soon though. I think he's getting onto something with his whiny baby act.
Dixie/Angle would've been amusing for a second for how surreal it would be, but I'd rather she not get that gratification. There's really nothing she brings to the table as a performer that others can't do better.

Dixie would at least have been interesting.

There must have been something stronger in the works behind Angle's "scandal" than what actually played out: whatever the alternative was must have been vetoed shortly before it made it to air - Angle with an addiction would have been a likely creative gem, but given his actual history would not have been a good look, and certainly wouldn't have justified a return by Steph and Trips. I don't think Dixie was ever even in the mix of options, though.
There should have been more to the "scandal" whatever the deep, dark secret was. There was nobody playing Baby Doll's role of letting everyone know that there was a secret and demanding favoured treatment or else. There was no utterly dastardly heel to benefit from the blackmail - this might have been perfect for someone like The Miz or even Joe (before his injury, to solidify his heeldom in moral turpitude as well as in sheer dominance.)
Holy shit - it's just occurred to me how "face"-heavy Raw has been this year. No wonder Kane's back.

Christ, no. They were at least trying to give a rub to a new guy.

This was never ever ever ever going to happen and it's baffling to me that so many people thought it was possible.

I can't believe this but I did vote yes. This angle has basically killed Jason Jordan dead while the Dixie thing would have been total Wrestlecrap silliness but might have been in the Claire Lynch "So bad it's hilarious" category. It wouldn't have hurt anything.

Yeah, surprisingly yes. I mean it would of been a surreal moment..to say the least. And this JJ stuff has been unbearable.
