Will the break-up of Tons of Funk save the Tensai gimmick? Probably not.

There's no saving the Tensai gimmick now, they've ruined him and made him into a clown.

This sums up Albert's career, being both the turning heel and turned on face partner in two dancing tag teams.

Just re-debut him as Albert or A-Train, act like he's just returned from wrestling in Japan, and pretend that everything Tensai related was one long dream.

Ship him back over to Japan where I don't have to watch his overrated ass.

Yeah, Tensai got a pretty raw deal, didn't he? He was better off being remembered for having a hairy back than actually coming back.

He has no ability to connect with a crowd or draw any heat unless he is doing the big guy acting goofy thing. It's not like he hasn't been given many opportunities.

Which would work if they hadn't pointed out on commentary when he was still Lord Tensai that he was Albert, who had gone to Japan and adopted a new identity to match his new training and demeanor. |

What confused me most about all this, is that it leaves Cameron Naomi in a bit of a lurch. I mean, I don't care about what happens to them on the WRESTLING shows, but they're not going to get buried because of Total Divas. Would they just continue the lame duck dancing cheerleader gimmick with no one to cheerlead for?
oh yeah and Tensai.... Don't really care.

They will probably just stick around Xavier and Truth now, the two knights in shining armour "slew" the terrifying Funkasaurus and claimed the allegiance of two bomb.com maidens. |

This was a travesty. I am absolutely gutted from this break up.  |

I'm surprised they lasted on long as they did. Now all I have to look forward to is the feud between the two, & let me tell you something, I am dreading that match.

The only real memory I have of the two facing off was when Brodus threw Tensai on his face with a botched T-bone suplex at Survivor Series last year. |

Tensai needs a Homer Simpson gimmick, stick him in a white shirt and blue pants and he's a dead ringer.

I wished they just turned Tons of Funk heel and made them a monster tag team.

Tensai was Shawn of the Funky Rockers. Tells you everything you need to know about Brodus.
The wrong one went heel.
