10 WWE Superstars Who'd Be Better Off In The Indies (Or Overseas)
10. Xavier Woods
Xavier Woods as a member of gospel music loving positivists The New Day is ridiculous. Instead, we should all be wishing that he was wrestling Trent? in a Guerilla Warfare match at Reseda, Califorina's Pro Wrestling Guerilla. If "Stone Cold" Steve Austin's podcasts with WWE brass have taught us anything, it's that WWE doesn't *get* milennials. Thus, for an entire year, Xavier Woods had a reference to Dragon Ball Z character Vegeta that became more popular in the indie mainstream via a meme. Of course, this would require WWE to understand social media as much more than a way for the company to #brand itself, but a universe all unto itself.
Besides having been an independent professional wrestling manager for a decade, Marcus Dowling is a Washington, DC-based writer who has contributed to a plethora of online and print magazines and newspapers writing about music and popular culture over the past 15 years.
