So he'll be Cruiserweight & Co-Holder of the Tag Titles at the same time? #Lio2Belts

I went to an ROH Anniversary show 2 or 3 years ago and at the pre-show meet-and-greet Leo was the only guy there that didn't have one person in his line. Literally everybody else had at least a few people in line. Leo didn't have one paying customer in line. If Leo can't draw a paying customer from an ROH crowd he damn sure is not going to become a top guy to a mainstream WWE audience at his size.
Maybe he should take Jim Cornette's advice. Cornette says Rush can make millions of dollars as a manager but at his size nobody will ever take him serious. I realize Rush wants to wrestle but if he wants to provide for his wife and two kids maybe he should do what the boss tells him to do so he can keep taking home that nice WWE paycheck. The alternative is going back to the Indies with no line at his meet and greets.

Should Lio be Universal Champion? No, probably not. But you can't tell me people wouldn't be interested if they did him vs. Rey Mysterio or Ricochet.

Lio seems like a good kid, and there's nothing at all wrong with betting on yourself, because if you don't, no one else will. But the lad needs to learn when it's time to speak up, and when it's time to keep quiet.

that was literally my first thought when I saw the thread title. lio has more heat than time on the main roster at this point.

So, my question is...what kind of guidance are guys like Lio Rush getting in the Performance Center? Hunter has collected all sorts of coaches and trainers to fill that thing with a vast wealth of experience and knowledge and yet Lio Rush goes to the main roster not knowing how to conduct himself? Or is this a situation where he was taught just fine, and has blown all of that off?
Is there guidance at the PC on "the unwritten rules", do they teach and coach on proper social media behavior, do the offer classes on how to conduct themselves?

If he is talking about him and Lashley being used better as an act, I don’t disagree with that.
Now, him telling everyone he should be the top guy in the company is pretty hilarious. Reminds me of Prichard talking about Holly’s pitch for himself was “just have me beat everybody”.

Bringing him in to be a glorified Johnny Polo is a legit waste of his talent though.

Sapp reported some time ago - regarding the PWInsider report that Lio is disliked by the wrestlers as well as other people that have to work with him - that WWE likes his work and there were extra veterans taking him under guidance so he doesn't get himself into more trouble. But as it turned out, it didn't help.
Wrestling history isn't exactly filled with wonderful people at the top. But Lio has no Kliq to support his behaviour. I don't think they will release him though with the current AEW situation, as he's young and talented.

Well he doesn't have any on screen so clearly making up for it backstage.

Lio strikes me as a guy who just does not know when to stop talking.

Lio at the moment seems to be uploading videos of his career on Twitter so I don’t know if this is him giving himself an ego stroke or there’s something to these heat rumors...
