Otis was kept on SmackDown as part of the 9 October announcements, but his Heavy Machinery bud Tucker was sent over to Raw on the next day's edition of Talking Smack. Unfazed by their own decisions, WWE kept booking 'Tucky' as part of the interminable MITB courtroom shenanigans on Fridays.

Then, Otis turned up under a mask as 'El Gran Gordo' on the 19 October Raw. Viewers were led to believe that he couldn't appear without the hood because he was on a rival show - something Tucker, Miz and Morrison had been doing themselves without masks.

To top it all off, recent reports hinted that Tucker had quietly been moved back to SmackDown after turning heel so he could feud with Otis. That wasn't the case, but the whole saga involving these guys is still a total mess.
