Facial expressions for a sadistic or flamboyant character, with an underdog up and comer promo.... Uses heel appearance tactics and cuts of interviewer to make a monotone statement... Who the is teaching in promo class and why is it not Corino?

I like him so far. First thing I've seen from him. If he can ooze charisma, connect with the crowd and own the Mic he doesn't have to be some stellar mat wrestler. Case and point The Rock, Hogan, Flair, Austin. None were legendary mat wrestlers (some better than the others Austin and Flair) but theyre still 4 of the biggest names ever. Then again it's too soon to tell but he does seem comfy in front of the camera. If this was 1988 then I would completely agree with you. The problem is none of this matters anymore. Look at a guy like Finn Balor. Fans love him, great in the ring has really unique look (when Demonized) and yet he's regulated to the mid card scene. Then you have Roman Reigns who fans legit hate, not "love to hate" as in heel tactics...just flat out ing hate and he has about 7 moves and is absolutely terrible on the mic and he's a regular main eventer and "top star" Whomever WWE wants to be a star will be a star.

I feel like he's a poor man's John Morrison.

No. I’ll be surprised if he still works for wwe in two years.

Seems to be pretty good on the stick and there's something I like about him. I haven't seen him in the ring though. It could easily go either way.

That was a copy paste job at best. Hey, used to see that term used years ago in books and magazines (I'm looking at you WOW). It kind of got stuck in my vernacular as a "good on the mic" term.

Just look at Enzo. No in ting ability whatsoever lol but he could cut a promo and get the crowd behind him. Everything is nonessential.

He definitely watches a lot of The Rocks tape, facial expressions and speech caedence is almost identical.

After the vignettes, we had been getting on NXT the last month or so, I really could not have been any more underwhelmed with his first match last week. He very well could turn into something great, but as of right now I do not see "it" at all.

I said it before in the NXT thread, he's the equivalent of Buddy Landel aka the poor man's Rick Flair.
He's got skinny knock-knees, a weird looking torso, skinny arms, wrestling gear that isn't appealing in the least, and an arrogant heel gimmick on a roster that already has a better arrogant heel gimmick in EC3...with a better physique.
This guy is doomed. He's not a handsome man and he goes around talking about being the sweetest or whatever? He's a skinny Buddy Rose come to think of it! Terrible performer.

he certainly won't be a better cocky arrogant heel than EC3, so NOPE.
