FWIW, I was at last night's House Show in Brooklyn and Axel was back to being his regular self. Yeah. Saw he was even back to the black cargos. Why can't he just be "Better Than Perfect" Curtis Axel? It's when he was most over. |

Good sign for a possible Hulk Hogan return soon brother! Did Axel come out to Real American?

Why not come out in a singlet, with a towel, chewing gum?
I'm actually serious.

And if Axel is gonna steal someone's gimmick and can't do Hogan's anymore, might as well steal his dad's. |

Then they turned it into a Hogan gimmick and jobbed him out to everyone. Sandow was crazy over as Mizdow and they did nothing with him when him and Miz split so they dressed him up as Macho Man and teamed him with Axel. They weren't going anywhere with those gimmicks and woulda been jobbed out to every tag team before splitting them up. Hogan's racist remarks just sped up the inevitable. |

I loved this. I thought it was great. Why they didn't keep that gimmick going, I'll never know. He could STILL be in the 2015 Rumble if WWE didn't ruin it.

Yeah, I found myself actually caring about Curtis Axel for the first time. He was entertaining and had a personality that I never knew existed. So what do they do? They have him come out dressed as Hulk Hogan. SMH |

Yay now let him get back over then drop the gimmick and become a better version of Mr Perfect maybe call yourself Mr Perfection or something sweet like that and then always cut promos about how you're better than your father ever was and your grandfather and just become a super Heel Mr. Perfection Not sure if this is sarcasm... it's not I actually like him I feel like he would be the perfect 3rd Generation wrestler if they would let him do this |

He referred to himself as "Better Than Perfect". yeah and I had no problem with that but he should have ran with that gimmick a little harder but like super heel where he was just so negative and bad that you had to like him |

It's when he was most over. I still think he needs to be average joe hennig. He's talented, but sadly has a bland personality. |

I would like an Axelmania figure. Would be unique to add to my collection.

I'm guessing this was done to gauge the crowd reaction to Hogan's music more than anything else. He's a Damn good wrestler, but Curt's charisma was obviously lost on the way to the egg, because he's just boring. Now he's one of those guys with crazy gimmicks none of which got over. He and Ted DiBiase 2 would've made literally the most bland tag team in history.
