Dude almost hurt Lashley bad, his head smacked the top of the ring post because he threw him into the turnbuckle at such a high angle
It's really, really not worth it. Dude lost, let's quietly move on...

I honestly don't know what NXT would do for him. He's bad in a way that probably comes down to his body as much as his skill.

At some point WWE gotta realize hiring former Basketplayers is not a good idea. The sport doesnt leave their body in any good shape.And if they are,they will probably still be playing basketball

The dude moves like he's made of concrete. His finesse rating is zero.

Probably in that most ex-basketball players have shot knees.

Probably why they're trying to get college students enrolled before they have the chance to get shot knees. Like, I'm sure they looked at Omos and thought "Man, this guy could be our Shaq" without factoring in that a) Shaq at least went all in on his wrestling appearances and b) he's also one of the most charismatic sportsmen that's ever lived. It'll likely be a problem Gable Stephensen encounters being compared to Kurt Angle (besides...the other stuff).

Basketball and more so for the taller framed guys. Takes his toll on there knees and become almost shot before they get into it. Kevin Nash had years of knee issues that started from Basketball. Yes he was more athlete in his younger days and could do more than Omos. But when you look at Omos who barely can do anything. Giant Gonzeles same issues, why he ended up wrestling to start with. Taker they lucked out because he got out after college. Plus he was not as big weight wise. Nash also we helped he wasn't 400 pounds.

He barely even got off the bench at the college level.

He's improving but the thing is that he's still green and he's a big man. Big men just take a longer time to learn stuff because they're just not versatile in learning all the areas of working, they just stick em with that "sell little, do little" stuff. He just wasn't ready for this.
Just nah, should have had his 27 year old self in NXT for 1-2 more years to at least get more of the basics down.

Big man just take a longer time to learn stuff because they're just not versatile in learning all the areas of the business, they just stick em with that "sell little, do little" stuff. He just wasn't ready for this. Just nah, should have had his 27 year old self in NXT for 1-2 more years to at least get more of the basics down. This might be controversial but considering he and Azzez (and Bruan) spent their entire NXT "career" on the Florida circuit, I'm pretty sure HHH didn't have any plans to have them trained in the same way others did. They likely fell into the "We hired them to fill a mandate but we weren't sure what their place would be" stuff Swerve was talking about. You could argue people like Conti and Purrazzo fit into that too considering.
