Let's be honest, what exactly has he ever shown to suggest he's deserving of a push? He's just dull, dull and uninspiring. Maybe he doesn't deserve to be IC/U.S. Champion, BUT he and the other lower midcarders deserve to matter in the eyes of the fans and in the grand scheme of things. There's no reason why McGillicutty can't have an actual FEUD with someone like Ted Jr., Riley, or Ryder. The whole Santino trying to touch the beard thing could've been happening on SmackDown.

This not allowing him to use his real name is ridiculous. There is no threat to the WWE. No one wrestler or even multiple wrestlers would be able to tip the scales in another promotion's favor.

I can't see anything there and I honestly thought people were joking to begin with when they said he should be pushed. But it's all about opinions afterall.

Agreed. If Hulk Hogan, Sting, Jeff Hardy, Kurt Angle, and Rob Van Dam can't build TNA up as a threat, nothing will. And the anal attitude towards names hurts wrestlers' future prospects in the event that they were released. While I understand the whole, not wanting another promotion to get money off of their creation, it hurts the WRESTLER'S ability to make money. While someone like Evan Bourne or Kassius Ohno can just go back to being Matt Sydal or Chris Hero, someone like Zack Ryder would basically have to start over from scratch.

I really hope they don't screw Richie Steamboat around with this issue. I can understand Bo Rotunda becoming Bo Dallas, but when you have Steamboat Sr. as an employee of your company, why would you make that change? I say Joe Hennig is fine as there aren't any other Joes, and with enough time, Joe could possibly be one of the guys that could actually follow in their father's footsteps. Curt wasn't an overnight success either and he had a well known father in professional wrestling when he was coming up. Well as Ricky's real name is Richard Blood, they probably won't have a problem.

Dick Blood will surely bring in the next boom period.

I've always said he should be Mr. Imperfect. He becomes a "lovable loser". He could shoot the same vignettes like his father, but he fails at all of them (he shoots an airball, the baseball barely leaves the batters box).

I'd like to see a push for him. He's insanely talented.
