When the rumors broke that Tyler Breeze would be making his main roster debut after a long tenure in NXT, speculation was rife on the method in which he would debut. I personally came up with seven ideas WWE could use to bring up him, two of which were immediately used upon his first appearance (Ziggler feud and pairing with Summer Rae Ill take my check now, WWE). It seemed like a no-brainer to have the charismatic young star debut at the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view and face John Cena in his U.S. open challenge, unseating the champ and being christened a star to keep an eye on in the process. Instead he debuted on SmackDown which is the wrestling equivalent of a tree falling in the forest when no ones around to hear it and was immediately inserted into a midcard feud where he began trading wins, yet another victim in the infinite 50/50 booking black hole of suck. Im not suggesting Tyler Breeze was ever going to be someone who WWE should build around; in fact his ceiling is probably a Billy Gunn or Rick Martel level. They should at least test the waters and see what they have first, and if it doesnt work then fine, but already positioning a newcomer to be just another guy in the eyes of the fans is never a good move.
