Mustang Sally
Sells seashells by the seashore
I figured this to be a match between two behemoths that would help set a positive direction for both. Instead, it turned out to be a vehicle for Big Show to return, and I was a little disappointed because of it.
It seemed as if facing off against each other would be a good move for both men. Tensai needs to generate something already; he's rough, tough and a good ring worker; brawling and roughhousing has always been his forte. When they gave him a tainted win over John Cena early in his tenure, I thought he was really going to amount to something. Instead, he fizzled and they've been letting him flounder ever since, letting him job to up-and-comers while doing more damage to his valet than his opponents.
As for Brodus, management doesn't seem to know what to do with him. They knew correctly he was going to have to start doing some true work in the ring instead of being just a circus act. That embarrassing "It must be jelly because jam don't shake like that" shimmy he did while facing down opponents was something that had to end before Clay became a complete joke. But management has apparently been dissatisfied with Brodus' ability to work a match, necessitating that his repertoire be restricted to letting his enemy take a few uncontested shots....and then being splashed by Brodus. I don't know about you, but I was sick of it.
When I saw these two enter the ring to face each other, I thought a direction for both was finally being set. They're close in size and fighting each other means they don't have to contend with fancy moves offered by their opponents; they could just brawl until something gives. For a minute or so, that's just what they did. Then, Big Show comes down the aisle.
Can they go back to Tensai vs Clay......without anyone interfering? Given Vince McMahon's love for the big guys, I would think two super-heavyweights pounding on each other could bring us a taste of old-style wrestling we seldom get to see anymore. I'm for it.
