I remember when Vladimir appeared, he was a Monster, he would come down with that Russian esque theme, look like he was marching down, he was all offense, muscling manhandling everyone in his path. I think his greatest win in his career at the start was beating the Undertaker on Smackdown, Pulling him off of Oldschool and just Powerslamming him for the three count. He was looking like he could be a legit Upper cardsmen too potential main eventer.
And then...
He becomes the straight man to Santino's antics. Even though he is a world tag champ currently with Santino it seems his personal push just ground to a halt.
Do you think that he is being misused at the current stage of his career, or was Vladimir somehow showing some weakness in his wrestling and needed to be pulled down the card level so he could become more seasoned?
