Disclaimer: I'm not blaming performers for booking choices that they have to execute, but...
This guy is brutal. Putting him in the women's division is especially brutal. That wink is obnoxious. (And also brutal.)
I don't think Asuka is permanently ruined, yet, so it's not even about that. He's just not fun to watch and a big part of why the last few Smackdown episodes have been lackluster.
I'm not sure what you do with him because he seems to be a decent guy who made the most out of his opportunity but him and Carmella are just terrible right now.

He seems like an awesome dude in real life, but I never got the appeal of his character and thought they beat it into the ground quickly the first go-around. Now he's back and.....doing the same thing

He should have never been fired in the first place. Carmella was just treading water without him.

I'm still glad he's back because he's hilarious, but the stuff with him and Asuka hasn't been nearly as entertaining as his feud with Becky.

He’s just.....really bad at cutting promos and doing anything.
I know so bad it’s good but he’s just awful. He’s lucky he looks like a parrot.

He should have been done after the Styles/Ambrose feud. What I don't get is they let him go after he ran his course with Carmella... just to bring him back to do it again.

I doubt that he'll last much beyond SummerSlam this time around, my best guess is it will be Becky vs. Carmella w/Ellsworth at Summerslam with Becky winning the belt. Carmella's reign has kind of been a bit of a failure IMO...

Ellsworth would work great as a weasley heel in 205 Live which is why he'll probably be fired again after Summerslam...

This isn't a mystery. Ellsworth was rehired because Carmella is terrible. I was baffled as to why he was released in the first place given Carmella still had MITB at the time and there was no reason for her to get rid of him. I figured she'd cut bait with him after he either screwed up her MITB cash in or after he did something to cost her the title.
The Becky thing makes sense. That does mean Asuka is jobbing twice to Carmella however, which is just beyond idiocy.

He should be a manager. He gets some heat & can do comedy heel work. He shouldn’t be presented as an Andy Kaufman-Esque wrestler. If they made a stipulation that Asuka got 5 minutes in the ring with him or something like that, he’d be pretty entertaining.

I'll just keep it brief.
In today's social climate, Ellsworth's "I'm a man and I'm better than women" shouldn't be done. We saw that the first time and yeah, I get he's ugly and worse in the ring but enough is enough. He needs to interact with more men to flesh his character out.

That's the joke. Do you get it? Do you get it? Huh? Huh? Do you get Vince's very funny joke? Do you get it? Tell them it's a good joke. Tell them it's good. Tell them it's good. Tell them it's good. Tell them it's good. Tell them it's good. Tell them it's good. Tell them it's good. Tell them it's good. Tell them it's good.

He's the ultimate goober. Wrestling needs goobers. Just like wrestling needs studs, giants, hosses, spot monkeys and not Alex Riley.

He just doesn’t need to wrestle. Let him come out, say something stupid, and introduce Carmella. He doesn’t need multiple segments every week.

And this worthless clown got a NWA Title shot because?
Guys squashed on Wrestling Challenge who were out of shape and had neckbreads have more credibility than him.

Ellsworth getting so much hate, I feel like he is underrated on this board. He's honestly better than a lot of guys on the roster on the mic and has character work down great.
