I say good riddance. Tyler Reks SUCKED.
The only time I was ever remotely interested in anything he did was when he was getting destroyed by Ryback. He could have stuck around a little longer to tag team with Hawkins, but now that obviously won't happen. Too bad. I feel sorry for Hawkins, he keeps losing tag team partners. Ryder went on to become his current persona, ending the Edge clones tag team they had. Archer got fired when everyone realized how INTENSELY boring he was, ending the Gatecrashers tag team. Now Hawkins and Reks have ended as well. Maybe it's time for a Hawkins singles run? A gimmick change could do wonders for him like it did for Ryder, considering that they used to play identical characters when they were Tag Team Champions.
Oh wait, this thread was about Reks, not Hawkins. Right. Back on topic.
I never once liked this guy. I gave him a chance on ECW when he had that horrible surfer gimmick, I gave him a chance when he defeated Kaval to get onto the Smackdown Bragging Rights team, I gave him a chance when he received random pushes that never amounted to anything, and finally I gave him a chance when he had a tag team with Hawkins. As I stated in my first paragraph, the only time in his entire career that he ever was remotely interesting was against Ryback, and that's due to Ryback destroying him. He was in WWE for 3 years and never once did anything worthwhile, so I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did. I won't miss him, he sucked.
I know we all have our opinions, but was this negative rant really nessasary? You could at least give him praise for leaving to take care of his child instead of just repeating the word sucks all the time.
But back on topic, I'm sad to see him go; I loved his barbarian dredlock gimmick, and it was one of the things that set him apart fromthe other generic short hair + black tights wrestlers. Glad to see that he still making decent money out of the WWE, because his daughter is going to need it.
