10 Buried Treasures That Could Leave WWE Before 2018
5. Tony Nese
Popstar Shakira once seductively sang of hips not lying, and it should only be presume she was foretelling the world of Tony Nese' magnificent physique when she spun her yarn on dance and desire.
If the above gif doesn't adequately explain a) why 'The Premier Athlete' has been grossly mishandled by WWE and b) how ignored 205 Live really is, then no further words will do the job in its place.
A fine all-rounder, Nese would have been a revelation in any incarnation of Vince McMahon's empire other than the one he's found himself in. An exquisitely obnoxious heel with a physique becoming increasingly rarer in today's industry and a dynamic in-ring arsenal to match, Nese is a total package in 2017 that sadly entered into the company through a Cruiserweight Classic side door.
The Cruiserweights of WWE in the modern age have become the Divas of the mid-2000s. On Raw, their matches can be timed in seconds more than minutes and rarely have a point beyond establish one queued character at a time for a run at perennial Champion Neville. Things do actually happen on the Network-only Tuesday Night vehicle, but when an atrocious WCW pay-per-view from 1998 out-rates it on the over-the-top service, do they really?
The entire lightweight crew deserve better, but Nese's lack of even one pay-per-view crack at the 'King Of The Cruiserweights' should signpost where his future lies the longer he stays put.
