I always liked him in WWE and thought he always did a good job with what ever they have him. Just doesnt seem like there is any thing to the Aron Rex character though. TNA gives talent more freedom character wise but I feel like he is more suited for WWEs style of controlling a character for him to play.

I kinda think he "shined" in alot of people's eyes with the Mizdow and cartoony gimmicks was because he was very much featured in small segments, not really given a lot of range to do much. If you also think about it, in Rhode Scholars and with Miz he always has someone to play off of (and that person he played off of was REALLY good)

I think when he debuted and was just "generic baby face" he had no direction, he had no real discerning reason for me to cheer him. At least as a heel, he makes it very easy to hate him. He's not a jacked monster like Lashley or doing cool flippy stuff like Trevor Lee. Maybe it's just me.... But he just has one of those faces you want to punch


Side note, I thought it was really creative when they did the "gimmick cheating" when he was turning heel. Like one show he has his knuckles all taped and they speculate if he's got rings on under. Another match he wipes his hands all over his towel and he guy makes it seem like his eyes are burning when he rakes his eyes. I really liked those attention to detail
