I'm somewhat inclined to agree, considering that I didn't think that much of either one of these guys in ROH. Dijak was servicable as a "big man", but could have sucked worse than Baron Corbin if he had been overexposed (which he thankfully wasn't). And I was hurting to see the difference between Keith Lee and Shane Taylor... not because they were to big black guys, but because they were both big black guys with football backgrounds and kinda sloppy in the ring (excuseable granted how green they were) and had nothing that really set them apart at all. I would almost say they were easily mistakeable as a "twinsy" tag team, but then I actually remember them being a tag team at one point there with black singlets with only their initials like a generic AoP. They were two guys who were there.

They both have improved. I guess the "Bask in my Glory" thing is getting over, and maybe one day it'll grow on me like Velveteen Dream did, but I dunno. In an unprecidented move, WWE added more letters to Dijakovic instead of changing it or shortening it to just Donovan or something. He moves less lanky and Keith moves more smoothly. And if these two had touched in ROH, that would have been a "big" match with severely less return than this showing in developmental. We'll see how it pans out for them both, but there may be some upside after all.
