I just don't find them funny at all. Is it wrong to have an opinion? Then again I think 30% of wrestling fans even know who he is so nothing too get butt hurt about.

No one insulted you, nothing wrong with an opinion, we just stated ours as well.

The whole opinion argument is a two way street, it's not very endearing to act like your opinion is the only one that matters and to label people who disagree are just butt hurt, I mean, throw out opinions that don't exactly mesh with most of the forum, but I don't throw out labels, well............Unless I figure they be trolling me.

Edit: Chris beat me to it.

After reading the comments above, I thought these videos would be funny. I didn't find them funny, but when Bateman was on NXT3 he was fucking hilarious. He hasn't been the same since he returned on the last NXT though, but I hope this is a gimmick that showcases how funny he can be.

Not expecting anything awesome, but hoping to be proven wrong.

I've been a pretty big fan of Bateman for awhile due to his comedy. On one episode of NXT he yelled out CURTIS!!! In an over the top cartoony way and it made me laugh so hard and I laugh just thinking about it. His wrestling on the other hand isn't really all that great. I've yet to see him in a great match but he's okay in the ring.

I'm also in the not funny bracket too. Saying that though, seeing him in a couple of backstage segments with Swagger which ultimately turns him face and teams with Bateman I wouldn't mind seeing. Gets him out of the rut he's in at the moment and gives him some direction.

Would be awesome to see him challenge Cesaro for the US title.

He comes across like a wannabe Colt Cabana.

Two good ideas for how to use him but knowing WWE, if he even makes it to television, he will probably be teamed up with Santino as the International Connection or something ridiculous like that.

I found the videos pretty entertaining but weather that means he could get over on TV I don't know, it seems like a pretty dated character which has been done too many times.

Also no to the U.S. Title feud that belt has seen enough comedy already.

These are gold! I noticed that WWE Universe's Twitter account tweeted this and the other two. That could be a sign they're doing something with it and it's not just Bateman doing this on his own for himself.
