Where-oh-where is Dexter Lumis?

He vanished from screens after a thoroughly balls mini-feud vs. The Miz last year, and he hasn't been spotted since beyond a few cameo showings on NXT. Lumis has done some acting outside WWE's walls too, but he's still contracted to Triple H's company for now. Maybe they should eh...use him every now and then.

If WWE do bring Dexter back, then he must move away from the stalker-style gimmick he's been playing for years. It's clear creative didn't really know how to deploy it on the main roster, but Lumis has a great look and could be handy in another role. It's worth a shot.

Thinking about it now, Dex might be pencilled in for a return on the post-WrestleMania edition of Raw. He'd be a decent returnee on a show traditionally packed with surprises in front of a rowdy live crowd, but it'd be great to see Lumis dispense with the creepy vibes and move on.
