Rob Conway is a good wrestler, and way better than many in the WWE. What do you think is holding Conway down? Vote now and let me know.

He has the very bad luck to be given what ever the hell his character was supposed to be. That and the god-awful theme that went with it.

It is rather bad luck that he isn't being given a proper push. They never gave him any real promos, shots at titles, or even any wins! Tis a shame.
But I believe better days are ahead on SD.

He was pushed for like a week and a half then they dropped it.  |

Bad luck. He could be put with Sylvan again, and that'd get him some reaction.

I remember sitting in the crowd at Homecoming and me and my 2 friends there popped huge when his music hit during the legends segment.
At that point I was thinking he was in for the mega push. He started beating guys like Doink, Koko B. Ware, Greg Valentine, Sgt. Slaughter, etc.
What I think killed him was getting pinned by Snuka at Taboo Tuesday last year. They had spent about a month building him up as hating the old timers and he was even challenging Eugene and any legend to a handicap match. Match time comes and for no reason at all they put Tomko with him and make it a tag. So logically, Tomko is there to take the fall so the legend and Eugene can win but without Conway losing right?? Wrong? Conway jobs clean to the Superfly Splash that Snuka looks about as comfortable doing today as Bill Gates walking the streets of the Bronx by himself.

He's a good wrestler with a good look, he's just been given crap after crap.

No charisma what so ever. He is RAW's version of the Bashams.

He wasn't given that gimmick, the whole thing was his idea.

Bad Grammar.
WWE will not tolerate poor spelling.

Bad gimmick, bad luck and bad entrance song.
No heel can be taken seriously when Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem hits with "Just look at me..." Also, he was strapped with a bad gimmick. What is it, anyway? He had a pseudo-Randy Orton "legend killer" gimmick, but that was pulled. Since then, he hasn't had anything close to a useful gimmick or character.
If they put him together with Sylvan to reform La Resistance in SmackDown, then he has a shot to get back over, because nobody likes French people. (I can say that, I'm of French descent)
Plus, La Resistance would actually give SD a tag division, which currently consists of Londrick, Regal and Taylor, and The Teacher's Pets. And that's it.

Bad Grammar. WWE will not tolerate poor spelling. Yes they will. Did anyone notice a week or two ago when they put up a sign that said "Diva's Locker Room"? Diva is singular, not plural. It should be Divas' Locker Room. |

He didn't do anything particularly heelish.
I remember when he tore up Eugene's teddy bear, he got huge heat from the crowd. Most heels get reactions because they give reasons to hate him. Conway didn't do anything in particular to hate him.
