Muhammad Hassan, we hardly knew ye

From WWE.com:

"Due to the unfortunate terrorist attacks in London on Thursday, July 7, which coincided with our pre-produced WWE SmackDown! program, UPN has asked us to be sensitive to the usage of the Arab-American character, Muhammad Hassan. We have agreed with UPN, and have not had the character on SmackDown! since that date. It is uncertain as

They ended up making the angle too smart for the room. Did you see the promo Hassan cut the week after the 'terrorist' spot? Brilliant, be basically pointed out that the masked men weren't arabs(they were WWE guys like Val Venis and some OVW workers), or terrorists it was the media's perception that made them both things. But they couldn't do it on UPN, and kinda flubbed it because if they could've shown video to prove that those guys were pretty much covered head to toe it would've worked better.

Davairi's even better than Hassan, on the mic and in the ring. If he gets fucked over because of this, it's an even worse crime.

My dream is they put an end to the Hassan character at the Bash, bury him and then in a few months Hassan and Davairi turn up and cut a killer worked shoot interview about how they were forced to do that stupid gimmick, they needed the paycheck, nearly run out of the business by UPN, pointing out Magnus isn't even an Arab, he's Italian, but they're back, and they're gonna stomp some ass and prove they deserve a spot.

Fuck, team them up with Matt Hardy as guys fucked over by WWE.

I get a vague feeling that the Dudleys may in fact turn up like that as well. I just can't see WWE letting the Dudleys go like that. I refuse to believe it. All three of those guys busted their ass for WWE for years. I know it's a cut throat business, but they were over, they weren't Charlie fuckin' Haas with no heat, the Dudley's reappear on either show and they'd get a huge pop.

That would actually be one hell of an angle to bring them back like that. And Davairi is damn good, too. He just looks like a 12 year old boy when he's in his ring gear.

The Dudleys being cut loose pissed me off big time. They need to bring them back. Fuck Brock Lesnar.

Jam, shoot me an e-mail (reverendsick at gmail dot com). I've been trying to get ahold of you for months.
