Congratulations, Damien. We are removing all of the things that made you unique and interesting. You are officially getting your main event push! I honestly don't remember him singing. And he still holds the microphone like a brandy snifter He used to sing parody songs about his opponents to the tune of classic rock songs. He hasn't done it in several months, and he only did it 2 or 3 times that I can remember.

And he still holds the microphone like a brandy snifter He did some really funny song parodies for a little bit, can't remember if it was actually on TV or just online content. If anything, that would serve him well as a face, he's legitimately funny. He'll find another way I guess.

So paying money for a cheap plug? Ok..... What a mark. I can tell you this and I don't make money off my inside scopes.

How does Damien Sandow's gimmick work as a face? Isn't his whole thing "I'm far more intelligent than you"? Maybe it'll work, but there's nothing about his character that you can really cheer for.

Instead of turning perfectly good heels face, try working with the faces you already have. There's no reason for Ryder, Gabriel or Tons of Funk to be jobbing, Santino to be stuck carrying Khali, Riley or Yoshi not to be properly utilized, or for Evan Bourne or Tyson Kidd to not return to TV despite being recovered from injury if they need faces.

I guess he could be a face if they had him correct stupid heels in a way that had the crowd laugh along with him.

Sandow is such a natural heel that hasn't reached full potential, much like MVP was. He won't benefit at all from turning face, in fact he'll probably turn into random face tag partner for Kofi Kingston in a few months.

Anyone that read the Smackdown Spoilers from two weeks ago knows I called the reasoning behind The Big Show's house being bought. I wonder if they are going to make Sandow more aggressive though

Not to speak ill of the dead, but why would anyone pretend to be Rick Steiner!?
Who are the dumbasses that are saying that WWE is like the end of WCW bad!?
Guy in developmental is doing some of the same things that Sandow is, so they make Sandow stop to avoid looking like an amateur instead of making the developmental guy stop!? Vince has lost his motherf***ing mind.
That's some bullshit to advertise Orton vs. Bryan for Smackdown knowing that they were scheduled for the international tour.

He said there was a grown man at the show in Shield attire who was crying because the Shield wasn't at the show.

That Cena bit is just depressing. It read like the guy is gonna die in the ring just because he can no longer function in the real world.

The only thing from this I want is for Sandow and Enzo to have a heated debate over the spelling of the word SAWFT. I guess we should've seen a face turn coming once Sandow started using "slack jawed mouth breathers" in his promos. That sounds like a classed up version of one of The Rock's insults.

Also, I want to believe that they're stealing the Big Show storyline from Happy Gilmore. Somehow, Big Show's grandmother becomes an entity in the storyline. Triple H agrees to a match with Big Show on the arrogant notion that Big Show could never beat him, and even agrees to put his house on the line. After Big Show confidently says he's going to beat Trips, Trips retorts with "Yeah, right. And Grizzly Smith had a beard." Someone then informs him that Grizzly Smith DID have a beard. Big Show gets a homeless Nikolai Volkoff to be his manager, despite not doing much. Big Show gets in a fight with Monty Hall. Lee Trevino shakes his head in astonishment. It ends with Khali chasing down a defeated Triple H in order to retrieve Mr. Show's jacket.

Sandow is finished in WWE. It's only a matter of time. The "intelligence" gimmick is already filled by HHH who's still supposed to be the "cerebral assassin" isn't he?. As the newz suggests, Aiden English can fill the elite/snob niche, and his singing gimmick will probably get over. He's already more entertaining than Sandow, who's a decent wrestler and is alright on the mic, but this gimmick of his has just been awful.

It was a JBL/Cole show thing and only really became something because of the nth degree burns that Rosa received from his version of "Lola".

Even as part of the Real Americans he just has this smarmy look on his face all the time. Like I sometimes wonder if he actually believes the things that Zeb says or if he's just being disingenuous about it.
