9 Ups & 5 Downs From Last Night's WWE SmackDown (Jan 15)

Ups...

9. Otis Is A Treasure

Otis Dozovic Becky Lynch The New Day

Otis Dozovic is a f*cking weirdo, and probably objectively terrible, but your writer can't help but get an odd kick out of this human bowling ball, his daft facial expressions, and the myriad of unintelligible grunts and wails that escape whenever he parts his lips.

This week saw him and Tucker Knight hanging out with the New Day, concocting a brutal protein shake of raw eggs (shells included), tuna fish, and pancakes. Otis made sh*tloads of Otis noises: "ayyy, Tuckaaaay!", "Ohhhh yeahhhhhh!", and, fortunately, no "prettayyyyy ladyyyyy!"

Coming off less like the sex-pest he was on Raw and more like a comedic oddity, he was a borderline charming presence on SmackDown. Perhaps this is a minority opinion. Perhaps everyone else on the internet hates the wee dafty. Perhaps this author page will sour on Dozovic after five weeks of the same thing. For now, however, he is a gem.
