Rob Terry earned his de-push last night. It was horrid. He is not ready for this. He looked lost during his match. Give the Global Title to Orlando Jordan's Music already!

Hogan's trying a little too hard to turn him into Botchtista. Until he starts getting photoshopped around here, He'll never be Botchtista. |

Terry looked green and nervous simply because he's still so new. Not sure when he started training, but it hasn't been that long. I think if he was given more time to develop and learn, he could be solid. Maybe if they did something to get him off of TV and let him work either indies or something to learn more, he could turn into something. He obviously has the support, just needs more teaching. According to Wikipedia, he debuted on November 10, 2007. |

Actually it's been awhile, he was signed to a WWE developmental contract in 2007 and from December 2007-August of 2008 he was in FCW. Now you're telling me from late 2007-early 2010 he's still this bad? I mean he probably wont get better and I'm sure he's in the long line of crappy over muscle bound wrestlers. |

Dear Wrestlecrap Board,
Last night, Rob Terry looked like one big, uncoordinated, awkward buffoon. He has no place in a wrestling ring.
Signed,
Nathan Jones

I usually try to support Rob Terry, but he was really bad last night. However I'll chalk it up to lack of experience, considering his matches so far have consisted of Clothesline Scream Boot to the Face Elbow Drop Pin take out elbow drop and that's Matt Morgan. but i'd take Morgan over Terry who made me laugh out loud last night, |

Terry was green but he wasn't as bad as some make him out to be. Terry has the look all he needs to do is be passable in the ring and he will get the push. I agree that Terry does need to work on his mic skills if he does want to get pushed beyond the mid card.

Nobody loves untalented chunkheads more than Hogan Vince McMahon. Terry has a great future with TNA. Fixed |

I was hoping he'd be good, because in all honesty, being a child of the 80s, I'm starting to miss the roid monkeys. TNA could use a few, but yeah he was botchtastic. It's not like Desmond is a huge guy and tripping after the boot made it so much worse. I blame TNA more then him though. They should know his limitations. I've seen him do the usual hoss match and he's good at that, but they had him doing too many things at once. He's too green for the cleaning house type spots.

Wait a minute!!! Rob Terry actually spoke? How in the hell did I miss that?
After seeing him last night I'll tell you right now this guy does not need to be pushed. He is going to hurt someone in the ring and it won't be good. This guy almost makes Batista look good in the ring. That is how bad he is.
I saw him at a house show here in Kansas City last Friday and he took on Orlando Jordan. The match was passable but Jordan completely carried his muscled up ass.

He didn't seem to know where he needed to stand.
When he clothslined eveyone he turned to clothesline Sting and Sting had to take about two steps to the right so he could get hit by the clothesline.
Back during the British Invasion there was a story on Wrestlezone saying that a lot of the wrestlers in the back were unimpressed with his work and there was a fear that if he wrestled on a regular basis he was going to hurt someone.

Batista is capable of having great matches and delivering awesome promos, so the comparison is null. Big Rob will learn better working with Desmond, Magnus, and beer money on impact and house shows

Yep, this guy makes Batista look like Ricky Steamboat. It probably doesn't help that it looks like he can barely move his arms. I thought the days of pushing jacked up guys who can't work were over, but I guess not. And the one person who's defended him says " but did you see the chair shot?" I rest my case.

He shouldn't speak, it erodes the mystique. No he isn't Curt Henning. He is a power house and as ipressive as he looks power houses are almost never mat technicians. I don't expect him to be either. His gimick is big, mean, fast wins with power spots. That is his spot on the card. X-div guys fill thier niche, he hits his spots, Desmond is the mechanic, Berr Money/3D are traditional tag teams and then the main event guys Abyss, AJ, Pope, RVD ect. Everybody has thier spot on the card. This is Rob's and he is filling it just fine. Cut him some slack this is his job and understand he is learning and works with the best professionals there are who will show him how to work and look stiff while not being stiff

Yeah, it wasn't great. But it seems like he's gonna get a bigger push than ever now, so there we are.
His vertical suplex/powerslam move was kinda nice. About all I can say in his favour.

Only in TNA can "Wait awhile and he might not suck" be an acceptable excuse for a guy getting a big push

I think he's obviously green, nervous, being pushed a little bit ahead of what he's ready for. But..he does have a great look (Enhanced or not) and probably just has to slow down and learn to adjust to himself and a moveset he's comfortable with. |

I disagree that he has a "great look" he's just really muscular. The faux hawk and speedo thing isn't doin' it for me. |
