If this is a new day, can we go back to yesterday? Earlier in the year, Xavier Woods was trying to assemble a group of what appeared to be angry black men. We are to believe this, because there was no other reason explained on-air of why he was only targeting Kofi Kingston and Big E. After a couple of matches, the group disappeared and showed up on TV without any mention of their former alliance. Then, they all disappeared again with a series of vignettes airing that now showed them as super positive all the time! It had to have been some sort of joke or spoof right? Nope. WWE went with a stereotypical church choir type act with the three. What happened during that time away? Why did they all suddenly change their minds? Well never know. What is known, though, is how awful the group is. Each one has talent, but being put together in a stable that is basically begging us to cheer them (which has the opposite effect) is painful to watch. The sooner that WWE gives up on this group, the better for everyone involved.
As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
