Bo Dallas, Where Art Thou?

[Troy]

Bo Dallas had an impressive start to his WWE career. He won the NXT Tournament to win a place in this year's Royal Rumble match. He lasted in there for 21 minutes, the sixth longest, and managed to eliminate Intercontinental champion Wade Barrett. Barrett returned later to eliminated Dallas from the match which kicked off a feud between them. The next night on RAW Dallas faced Barrett in a non-title match and won in a huge upset. Over the coming weeks Barrett would attack Dallas backstage and Dallas would return the favour. However for around the past month we have heard nothing from Bo Dallas and Barrett has seemingly moved into a new feud with Miz and Jericho.

This type of yo-yo booking really frustrates me, why bring a guy up to the roster, give him a great run in the Rumble, have him eliminate a champion and then beat him clean on RAW to start a feud and then end it. Why not have a long term plan and have some actual direction to it. Dallas needs to have been on RAW weekly so that fans could get to know his character more and see what he can do in the ring. It does nothing for him to bring him in, have him participate in something quite big and then not use him.


What are WWE doing with Bo Dallas? When will we see him back on television? When will we see him wrestle a match on tv next? Will his feud with Barrett be revived?

Wouldn't doubt he was sent back to FCW to get himself a personality transplant. Writers probably got sold a bill of goods, and weren't told the kid couldn't talk to save his life and panicked and pulled the plug on him.

Too bad he can't talk like brother, he would be an IC champ by now if he could.

The guy was boring. Just... eh. So kinda glad I'm not having to see him again for a while.

With NXT, house show matches and dark matches they should have known that he was a bit bland in the personality department. Even if they thought that he needs a bit of a character revamp they should simply have finished off the feud and then sent him down rather than randomly stopping the feud.

I would still rather have them complete the feud rather than bringing him up, realising he was boring and then dropping him. Play out the feud even if it ends on an episode of Smackdown. Basically give Barrett the clean win over Dallas to close it out or run an injury angle to actually write him out of the show.

Should never have been brought up in the first place, kid is an absolute drone with no redeeming qualities.

I think the WWE realized the kid wasn't ready yet. They gave him a trial run to see if it would spark any interest and it did very little. He's still got time though, I believe he's actually the youngest male on the WWE roster if I remember correctly, but he was definitely bland.

As to why Barrett didn't get a win over him to end the feud, the WWE doesn't really care too much about the midcard so I'm sure they were of the thinking that if he just disappeared, nobody would notice and nobody would miss him. I know I didn't.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

He's an alright worker and has that babyface charm that would used to make a crowd get behind him just to win especially with Barrett there but in this era you can't just come out of nowhere this bland and expect greatness. I still think he needs some fine-tuning anyways yet WWE had a little momentum with him and just decided fuck it he's not worth it.

This. He's just terrible.

 

[Big Red Jericho Punk]

He desperately needs to get rid of the flat ironed long feminine haircut, then to get an actual personality.

 

[Dale]

That's probably the only thing that seperates him from most of the other guys, imagine how even more generic he would look with the short hair.

 

[Deezy]

He will eventually be forgotten by most, or forgotten by now atleast....He will eventually come back some time down the line. Should just tell him to grow a beard, shave his head and put him in the Wyatt family as the little runt of that litter and he could use his brothers charisma and mic skills to propel him into an IC title feuding with the likes of Kofi or something.

Bo Dallas? The guy who looked like the "create your own wrestler" stock character from wrestling video games?

I have no idea why they had him defeat Barrett to begin with, even though I'm not exactly a fan of his at least he has something remotely resembling a character and the ability to speak in an acceptable fashion.
