30 WTF Moments From WWE NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn III
22. He's Boring, Man!
KURT GET AWAY FROM RODDY!
Troubled childhood come wholesome family man, we've seen it all before. It's so cliche and the reason - for me at least - why Roddy Strong hasn't really resinated with the NXT Universe yet. He needs something that sets him apart.
If we can read anything into Kurt Angle sitting next to him and a main roster call-up is imminent, it's a gimmick that will flop. Kevin Owens fights for his family already, and he's way more charismatic than Roddy so he'll undoubtedly blend into the shuffle and go to waste. This would be a massive shame so WWE should spare themselves this by repackaging the man with something captivating. The in-ring ability is there in spades but the rest of the package is lacking.
Kurt should go and sit next to somebody else, people like Bobby Roode are way more interesting. **cough cough**
If anything, the people that Kurt should sign to RAW is those who put together the packages explaining who Roddy is and where he's come from. While they told a bland story in my opinion, they were really well done and more of that vein of content would go down a treat.
