FAN-DAN-GO.

Sorry, that was the start of the entry for ’10 Horrendous Pronunciations Of Stupid Names WWE Used To Try And Allegedly Get Talent Over” list (pitch pending), but much like the company were keen to do in 2012, his name bears repeating if only to remind everybody that he still exists.

Wrestlers can’t do much about getting injured, but WWE could certainly help their injured wrestlers retain a presence when they can’t do much. Especially if they’d benefit from such a thing. Fandango, in case it already wasn’t crystal clear by the fact the poor f*cker hasn’t wrestled on a pay-per-view proper since June 2017, would most definitely benefit from it.

He was part of Breezango back then - an act that warranted more than they received thanks to an inspired series of ‘Fashion Files’ vignettes that shocked nobody that had witnessed Tyler Breeze and particularly the former Johnny Curtis doing wrestling comedy very, very well in their past lives. It’s with this deft touch ‘Dango’ could still be a force via the Network or official website, yet his best bits have been confined to his Twitter since disappearing nearly one year ago.

At least one side clearly can’t be a*sed. Hopefully in this case, it’s the talent.
