Video: Brodus Clay talks about shocking the world with his debut on WWE Raw

When it gets tiresome they can switch him to monster heel in a heartbeat.

Probably messing with his funky dancers and he goes crazy.

He’s like Rikishi ver. 2.0. He’ll be fine.

Or maybe I’m just overvaluing the awesome-factor in fat man splashes. I mean, come on, a fat guy doing a diving splash! I’m marking out every time.

It sets him up as a quasi-loveable face for awhile. The big guy who comes out, dances around, cuts a decent promo and just seems to have fun while getting it done in the ring.

When the time comes, it’ll make for an easy switch to the full-on, believable heel because he can just snap and use the fact that he is already built like a monster and just shed the dancing gimmick.

Mark Henry and Big Show have both proven that no matter how poorly a big guy is booked, he can always be turned into a legit World Title contender simply by tapping into the guy’s monster look and giving him a mean streak.

At first I shook my head but thinking about it more I like it, I can’t get the song out of my head & WWE already has two monster heels in Kane & Henry they don’t need a 3rd. If it fails they can just have him snap & be a monster heel

Fun short-term gimmick, but only good enough for the mid-card. If they ever want to give him a serious push, he’ll have to drop this like a bad habit.

The super dramatic and serious Cody Rhodes vs the funk.

I don’t care if the gimmick fails, or doesn’t fail, or makes money, or not. It is representative of everything that is wrong with WWE. They just aren’t serious about the product.

Bravo.

he can actually cut good promos, i dont know, something in those promos reminds me of punk lol, he could be a very interesting monster heel, because lets face it, mark henry is very one dimensional at promos, and the big show…well the big show its kinda boring

simply because he looks to be having a good time doing it. When the performer is into the gimmick and having fun with it the fans can more easily connect with it. I hope they stick with it

I posted on the site earlier that I was fully behind this gimmick, but after watching this video I’m not too sure anymore.

Maybe like all of us jaded 20-30 something year old fans and keep expecting too much; but Brodus just didn’t have the charisma I would’ve liked to have seen. I don’t know, he just didn’t seem very natural in front of the camera in that clip.

Hopefully he gets better with time and becomes more comfortable with being the Funkasaurus. Also, can we get this man a few catch phrases immediately?

“What do you mean? Ask Hawkins how seriously he takes me as a competitor. Did you not see what happened tonight? I can dance and move and do those things but don’t get it twisted, I’m still a tooth chipper. Ask him; ask him, he’ll tell the truth. And if you don’t like it, there’s two things you can do about it: nothing and love it. And you do know that. So pretty.”

He’ll also be on Smackdown this week, so I’m looking forward to that.

And I Could Not Help But Crack Up And Rewind Over And Over! All The Stuff He Was Saying Audibly During The Match Was Gold! Fan Says “You Such Brodus!” Brodus Responds “My Bad!” “Should I Get HIM?” LMFAO I Cracked Up And Even When He Did His Finisher He Shouted Something Out.

He Should Definitely Keep Continuing That Because That’s Something Fresh. The Only Other People I Can Hear Audibly During A Match Are Santino, CM Punk And John Cena. Brodus However, Brings Something Different To The Table. I’m Officially A Fan.
