I feel like they should be playing this up more, all the announcers do is shit on him when he comes out, God the announcers are awful, but that's a different story. Push #AxelMania.

Idk if anybody caught any of Smackdown yesterday, but Axel came out and they had a running clock of how long he's "been in the Rumble" up on the titantron and he wasn't counting along as the numbers on the tron did, apparently he's really bad at reading/math. Funny moment though.

It would be hilarious if he was never eliminated from the Andre the Giant Battle Royal too. We could hear about that and the Rumble for the rest of the year.

They have to set up a match Axel v. Reigns for the chance to fight Lesnar on RAW.

I have to give WWE creative credit. I was never big on Axel. He bored me to death and once he hit jobber status I felt he was where he should be. But it's now taken over for Mizdow as the most hilarious segment each week.

they gave this guy a big push for absolutely no reason than his last name. When the minors are not producing, go find wrestlers kids.

Okay, I just had a great idea...Hogan wanted one more WM moment, right? One more match? I know he wanted it against Cena, but that just wouldn't work.

How great would it be if Hogan confronted Axel about him hijacking his gimmick and they fought at WM?? Hogan could finish him in less than a minute (Axel is, after all, a jobber) and let the party start.

Yeah, AxleMania is probably done after last night.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Is this really a thing?

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Sad thing is that adding Axel to the WWEWHC match would actually be a vast improvement to just Brock vs Reigns. Axel actually has better ring skills than Reigns, and unlike Brock he's willing to make the other guy(s) look good.

Last night he brought it to another level. In the ring and on his promo

I fucking love the #AxelMania gimmick. I think its funny.

 

[Ewa PGH Fan]

#AxelMania has to be leading to a confortation with Hogan, otherwise it's pointless no matter how funny it is.

Axelmania was hilarious last night. I was LMAO on my couch. Hogan v. Axel at WM!

WAIT when did Curtis Axel get a huge push?

This Axelmania segment on RAW was phenomenal.

Back when he started in WWE they immediately gave him heyman and a huge push because he was Curt and Ax Hennings bloodline

 

[johnson]

He's getting a huge push now, but it's not exactly going to have staying power lol. Will be awesome though riding the Axelmania wave until it fizzles out.

It's the right time to be trending tho, he could ride this all the way to Wrestlemania and really increase his star power.

I don't consider that a huge push lol, they did nothing with him other than give him Heyman by default.

 

[3 & 6 years to go...]

Did you all know that Axel trained with Brock, and the Rock, to get them 'warmed up/more aclimated to the current WWE environment' when they returned?

Long live the Hennigs.

Well, not Mr. Perfect. R.I.P.

I love that they added an hour to the running Rumble clock to take into account Daylight Savings Time. I hope he doesn't get screwed like this in the Battle Royal.
