WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (June 28)
7. Bull Dumpsey
WWE programming isnt often known for being subtle. A couple weeks ago when Bull Dempsey couldnt finish his match due to being out of breath, the company must have thought that wasnt quite enough of a clue for what they were going for. So on NXT this week, we had to be shown that yes, Bull is just a big ol fatty. They showed us a variety of pictures from Twitter that didnt show him in the best light...and for some reason he re-Tweeted those photos. You see, Bull cant just fall asleep in a chair, he falls asleep with his shirt half-way rolled up across his belly, along with eight boxes of Girl Scout Cookies next to him. Funny? Yeah, a little bit, but all these sweets could prove deadly...to his career! Not long ago, Dempsey was a monster in NXT. Then he turned into the guy that other people beat on their way up the card. Now hes a joke. His fat dude gimmick is destined to (belly) flop. Its not even original, as Shark Boy had the same act a few months ago in TNA! Hed lay on a couch backstage with a box of Twinkies, nearly passed out, and would lose his cardio mid-match. So NXT is taking TNAs leftovers. Well, Bull did get the official White Castle Twitter handle to Tweet at him, so hes got that going for him.
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.
