Push: R-Truth - Personally, I love watching him in the ring. His dance like moves are pretty impressive and he has some nice moves. I think he is among the top 5 mic workers right now and he's my third favorite wrestler. Watch this promo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sx--piMaC8

De-push: Del Rio: He's terrible. I can't stand watching him in the ring and his mic work is horrendous. All he does is get cheap heat and tell people his name.

Fire: Khali, it's obvious. He can't wrestle or talk.

Del RIo > Truth in the ring.

Truth was a beast on the mic as a heel, as a face he's completely boring. I've never seen heel/face affect your mic work but in his case it does.

No way, Truth is elusive and has variety. Del Rio is completely generic wrestling. Yes, Truth is somewhat boring as a face. To be honest, him as a heel is one of my favorite 'storylines' ever. It was fucking great.

Del Rio is arguably in the top 5 wrestlers in WWE. He's a much better wrestler than Punk. Sure his gimmick is boring as hell atm and he gets no reactions, but technically he's a much more sound wrestler than Truth.

And yeah, I loved Truth's heel run. The promo he cut on the top of the ramp was insane.

I still will have to agree with you. Sure, Del Rio may have the talent and ability over some guys but that doesn't make him more entertaining.

Didn't say he was more entertaining. Just saying he's a better wrestler than Truth. Truth isn't too entertaining in the ring, you'd think he would be with his gimmick but what does he do in the ring to support his gimmick? Dolph for example does press ups, head stands etc for his show-off gimmick.

Del Rio bores me too, that's why I want him to return as a face into a tag-team with Rey :)

I guess you can say that than. Him tag teaming with Rey would be pretty fun. It'd bring some value to the Pennies.

Side note: I'd love Dolph to get a main event push.

Del Rio is too good to be wasted in the tag division, but he does need a face turn.

Sometimes one step back can help you get three forward. He needs to be put on the back burner to get over with the crowd.

One minute you claim the tag-team division isn't used enough, then you say it's too much of a step down for Del Rio. The division needs former main eventers to revitalize itself.

Randomly throwing Del Rio into a tag team with Rey, who he has put on the shelf multiple times (kayfabe) isn't exactly the way I would go about rejuvenating the tag division.

I need the WWE to show actual interest in making the tag team division relevant again before I'd be okay with them putting Del Rio anywhere near it

Yes. If you make enough new teams/make us care about the ones they have. Otherwise making tag teams out of established mid-card talent just buries them (Kofi).

It wouldn't be "random", there's plenty of methods you can make them form a team. Del Rio being punished and forcefully teaming up with his "nemesis" then Rey eventually helping to turn him. Rey getting beaten up weekly by their tag-team feud, Rio only ends up helping on week #4, fans would already be cheering with simple booking like that.
