WrestleZone’s Top 10: Overused Talent

May 10, 2012

Number 7: David Otunga

There is no doubt that Otunga is built like a brick house. He has the look to succeed in this business, but who really took him seriously each week with the bow tie and coffee, followed by a loss to a much small Santino Marella. He lacks real personality, yet is still seen basically each week with John Laurinaitis. His position in the company is because of who his fiancee is. They love the Hollywood crossover, even if it harms real and ready talent to be in the spot that he is in now. I do not want to see his character each week get progressively worse, which is where they are going with him. Let Otunga focus on his ring work, and then he can rely on that over his microphone skills. If they continue to use him in this current spot, he will never be utilized appropriately. Overused and overexposed too early, Otunga can still do something in the future.

Josh controls most of the creative writing and ideas for the show on a weekly basis, as well as an on-air talent.
