Brodus is pretty solid in front of the camera. Damn sure ain't no Diva that's for sure. Nothing really cringe worthy in that segment. Kinda reminded me of a cut scene you'd see in a WWE video game playing as a CAW rookie.
Things that were awesome in that clip:
Xavier's shirt.
Tensai checking in.
Tensai's sweet track suit.

 Brodus Clay vs. Xavier Woods is a main event anywhere in the country, Jess! |

It's a delusional, arrogant heel thing to say. That's what heels do. Are we new to this?

I'm glad they look to be turning him heel rather than just giving up on him. He's got potential as a monster heel.

I like that they are doing something with his character beyond 'happy dancing fat guy'
Crazy jealous paranoid Brodus would be an interesting development.

Brodus is getting cocky and acting like a bully. Somebody call his momma!!

I actually see this as a reverse Miami Dolphins scandal. Everyone is siding with the "bully" Xavier, whereas Brodus is just trying to stand up for himself but not getting any help from the organization. The next step should be for Brodus to get Maddox/Vicki/Kane to indefinitely suspend Xavier for his behavior. Then he squashes Truth, turns on Tensai and is about to reign supreme in the rumble until Xavier has a surprise return to eliminate Brodus. This starts up a Mania feud culminating in the first ever Funkadactyls on a pole match. Where's my check?  |

It's funny that Brodus' heel speech about rookies keeping their mouth shut and bowing to the veterans in the locker room is pretty much how the actual hierarchy of a wrestling locker room is said to work.
Rejoice Internet! They just admitted they're ALL heels in real life!!!

I honestly think that in a few years, Brodus could take Big Show's spot as main event monster. Can't see it. Show's a once in a generation talent. Brodus has nowhere near his skill in the ring and is much less visually impressive. Brodus's best role is suit-wearing back-watcher. |

Brodus Clay being a main event talent is even more of an exaggeration, than when Randy Savage said he got a featured role in Spider-Man.

I'm still waiting for the real Brodus Clay to show up; the one that Big Johnny kept apologizing to on the phone that his debut was set back another week.

What I meant is that it's an obvious heel turn in the making. You're supposed to think he sounds like an arrogant dick head. That's the point. You're supposed to sour on the guy. |

Will Brodus turning Heel resurrect the Lord Tensai gimmick?

Will Brodus turning Heel resurrect the Lord Tensai gimmick? Honestly, after Brodus turns heel, feuds with and beats Tensai, I could easily see ol' Sweet T being released. He's gonna be pretty much worthless once that tag team is done. |

He's gonna be pretty much worthless once that tag team is done. I think he would end up on the commentary team. Tensai was pretty good at it the few times that he did commentary. |

I wish he would turn heel but keep the gimmick somehow. Change the words of the song to "I'm a bad mothaf***a!" and dance obnoxiously because he knows that no one can stop him.

That's my guess too, especially if it's true WWE signed him to a particularly lucrative deal because they were planning on using him as a top monster heel. |
