I really don't know what they expected from the guy. He is what he is: a big dude with a power moveset. He's never going to be able to wrestle a technical masterpiece. But the fact that the fans just boo and chant boring the second the match starts now seems like they're trying to get themselves over. A frequent occurrence with Full Sail, really.

A manager would definitely help him out, though.
i don't think the booing has anything to do with not beating the squash time record, but in the fact that he was exposed as an awful worker when forced to work an actual match. his moveset consists of next to nothing, and he doesn't have the mic skills to compensate for that. or at least he hasn't shown it yet. if he could add some more power moves, it would go a long way. he doesn't need to be a mat technician, but at least show some variety. i'm still holding out hope that he and joe can put on a good match and he can come out looking strong. he's got a good look, but right now he's just got that and a solid finisher.
