What SHOULD happen. Tensai destroys Brodus for revenge leading to a short TV mini feud. What will happen is they become the modern day Men On A Mission.

Next gimmick change?
He starts calling himself Sailor Tensai.
*Mental image away!

After watching that Backstage show on WWE's Youtube page, they're definitely going to do Brodus and Tensai as a team. Brodus said how proud of him he was and such.
So a pair of near 400lb dancing giants is coming our way.... and honestly... I don't hate it.

I feel that certain people will never get the chance to move up the card with the face side becoming more and more bogged down.

Plus, they never got Tensai over the way they wanted to. I don't really see Tensai as a face holding any of the other faces back from a push.

I want to see posts here talking about how Tensai is holding people back.

I heard originally WWE wanted to debut everyone from FCW/NXT except Bo Dallas, but then Tensai was like "They're just not ready, brother! Bo knows!"

The problem is that these guys may never get any type of exposue, and the only way they'd possibly get to move up the card would be to turn heel, which would be a waste of their potential as faces.

allwrestling.com/news/48418/espn-praises-punk-del-rio/-AJ Lee poked fun at herself while mentioning Tensai wearing lingerie on last night's Raw, writing on Twitter, "If there's anything I've learned from seeing Tensai in lingerie on Raw, it's that everyone on the roster has better cleavage than I do."

"but I'm a monster" Seriously I hope his gimmick from now on is a comedy face who gets mad because he want's to be a monster heel but keeps ending up in ridicoulous comedy skit situations. So he's Kane? But even more self aware. Think about that for a second.

I don't see why they didn't make him Ziggler's enforcer instead of Big E Langston. They've dropped the ball big time with Tensai.
Why is it when a wrestler flops because of bad creative work, it's the wrestler who gets punished?

Hopefully we get the Hip Hop Hippo again and he teams with Brodus.

How can anyone not like a gigantic Japanophile who appears to suffer from megalocephaly forming an odd couple tag team with a gigantic dancing guy that thinks that he's a T-Rex?
I personally can't wait until he puts on Brodus' hat and stretches it out and they argue about it.

Didn't we all (I know I did) say when Tensai first debuted that in less than a year's time he'd be a comedy, dancing jobber?
Et voila. Like magic, man.

Please, end this farce and go back to Japan.

Tensai finally deserves some good things his way after doing that segment. He played it up well. I give him credit.

Why is it when a wrestler flops because of bad creative work, it's the wrestler who gets punished? Because the wrestler is the face of the gimmick, "creative" isn't a thing in kayfabe. There is no such thing as creative, it was Matt Bloom who decided to become Tensai and dress the way he did and wrestle the style he did. That clearly isn't true, and it clearly isn't fair, but that's how wrestling goes. Fans don't forget gimmicks and the boos/namecalling, "Albert," is the only way fans can express themselves to creative, and since creative doesn't exist, creative can only see the wrestler failing to get a gimmick over that they themselves failed to create properly in the first place. You can't get an entire crowd to chant "Hey creative, this guy is really badass and we wanna see him wrestle the way he did in Japan, so please stop booking him this way." We'd be doing stuff like this (go to 0:44 second mark)

I'm just wondering how did he find lingerie his size so quickly?

Why is it when a wrestler flops because of bad creative work, it's the wrestler who gets punished? Because the "work hard and succeed on your own merits!" fantasy dominates pro wrestling culture and the mindsets of the people who run it. Also, I mean, the fundamental attribution error, there's that.
