Well that’s what a lot people on shoot videos say is that he was essentially bi polar in his attitudes. He would go from the nicest dude ever, to the Vader we saw in the ring. I listen to the Arn podcast and other shoots and they say he was the nicest guy they ever met in wrestling 50% of the time but the other 50% wish they were big or tough enough to do what Orndoff did.
I mean with the amount of drugs and alcohol consumed by wrestlers there’s a lot of options

Bianca Belair carrying Otis was quite impressive.

future aew world champ

I'm not sure he leaves. He'd be a hell of a lot fun in New Japan though. I think I'd actually rather see him do that than go to AEW

Resigned today...

Steve Cutler was released. Stupid is what Stupid does reasoning.

No other details were announced by the company, but we’ve since learned some new details about the situation, including how Cutler apparently had some heat with Vince McMahon. According to Fightful Select, Cutler specifically had heat with Vince McMahon over him contracting COVID-19 in early January. It was also said that despite the Knights of the Roundtable’s (Cutler and Wesley Blake) attempts to get back on TV with Baron Corbin, they were rebuffed and it allegedly stemmed from Cutler’s positive test.

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter provided more details on that specific part of the story, noting that the belief was that McMahon was “livid” about the New Year’s Eve party Cutler attended which resulted in a positive result in the first place. WON also said McMahon had promised a few wrestlers, like Roman Reigns, a safe work environment to return to, and the party and having Cutler around all of the talent went against that.

His long term GF Sara Amato(aka Sara Del Rey) is living her dream as head trainer of the women, he seems more than content with his role because he gets to be around her as much as he wants.

The dude has a good steady paycheck and gets to support her dream. Not a bad gig by any means.

a brilliant human being.

the only thing I disagree with is not making him a dominant heel rather than a cowardly heel champ.

he should be destroying someone like KO without jey uso

I think Jey is only there for whatever grand surprise it becomes. I am guessing the Rock, but he ain’t doing that unless it is a full stadium, and potentially not doing anything at all if Vince dies.

I'm digging the new Apollo, though the spear, like McIntyre's sword, is a little cheesy

Vince loves to go with stereotypes...

so with Celtic Warrior, African warlord, Scottish whatever...are they really trying to tap into the "world" part of WWE?
