10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Damien Sandow
6. His Match Was Cut From WrestleMania 29
After competing in the singles ranks for a few months, Damien Sandow would eventually align with Cody Rhodes, as Team Rhodes Scholars. The duo would give Team Hell No a few tag title scares over the winter months, but would eventually come up short. After briefly splitting amicably the two reunited to feud with Tons of Funk (Brodus Clay and Tensai).
The Bella Twins and the Funkadactyls were also involved in this beef, and a mixed-gender tag team match was booked for WrestleMania 29. The big night came, the big night went, and the eight-person tag was nowhere to be seen. As John Cena and The Rock embraced at the end of the show, a small number in the crowd wondered out loud as to where this match was.
As it transpired, the match was cut from the show due to time constraints. The match would take place the next night on RAW, but it did so with a feeling of frustration permeating every move within it. Sandow didn't go as far as beginning a #DaysToRedemption a la Brodus Clay, but it was yet another setback for the Enlightened One.
