I think that Mercy was played by Danny Spivey and was a great choice for him and a good character.



He was the original blueprint for Bray.


I'd like to see Bray come back as a scientologist, give him a manager that's like 5 feet tall and perfectly turned out and great looking and crazy as it gets to be his Handler ala Tom Cruise.


Get him to try to sell his church and he loses his mind and tries to destroy anyone that says mean things about it

Need a skit on Raw where Wyatt is looking down and out backstage and vents about no direction and where to go from here, then IRS shows up. They stare at each other for a bit, then IRS slowly hands him the briefcase. Wyatt takes the case and contemplates it. Then looks up at the camera and smiles and slowly utters "You're all going to pay..."

I feel like IRS is a better gimmick for Bo Dallas than for Bray though.

They should probably do that.

Have Bo Dallas get fired for some reason. Then a whole skit of him job hunting for new work.

Have skits where he applies for a bunch of odd jobs, and nothing sticks, but then he finds himself at the IRS applying for a job as a tax collector.

Boom - IRS is re-born.

so because I love this stuff.


The next week at Raw, we hear not music but the sounds of an old style calculator working and Bray comes out clean shaven with short hair, wearing a long sleeved white shirt with a red tie and suspenders. He's followed by Rowan and Harper also clean shaven and wearing suits. Wyatt carries a briefcase. Rowan and Harper carry a table and chairs and. They set the table and chairs up and Wyatt opens his brief case and pulls out several file folders and a calculator and while he grabs the mic to talk Rowan and Harper sit down and start doing paper work.


Then Wyatt speaks (and I'm ripping off his first Raw Promo here)


"I have no followers. I have only fellow auditors, all in the name of collecting your fair share. People are criminals, you understand me. They cheat on their taxes, they need to be audited. People buy and sell excuses not to pay their fair share. They worship free services, they crave handouts, but I'm not afraid of their excuses and mistakes. I point out mistakes and ignore excuses. And I think it's time for the taxpayers to wake up. Wake up. WAKE UP! Wake up and look at this lie you're telling yourselves! Government services are deteriorating between their toes and they cause it. They only stand there. They whisper and wonder but they don't pay what they owe. I've seen it all in my forms and manuals and in my thoughts and above everything else I understand that this is not a beginning; it's a six month audit."

Watching NXT tonight, I think that they're going to have to draw out the four horsewoman rivalry.



I mean Bazler is main roster ready right now. But watching Duke and Shaffir's debut tonight they're a long way from ready as they went down to Shairi and Kai (who's main roster ready). the two horsewoman looked clumsy and they weren't given much in the way of offensive moves, instead they basically took a pretty big jobber role.


Black and Gargano need to go to the main roster as well.

This whole Gargano / Ciampa / Black storyline has been executed well; particularly the story arch of DIY to the two bitter, broken humans we see today.

Everytime Ciampa shows up its really must see. I don't know how his gimmick would work on the main roster, I think that really out of the three, Black is the most main roster compatible guy, I just get that Indy Guy feel from Gargano.


His wire is just as boring as dirt though, but she'll be called up because of her cheerleader looks.

One of my all-time Mean Gene favorites. RIP to the legend.

Loved Mean Gene.

Can't think of him without this promo popping to mind:

Man this one hurts. Truly the voice of WWF, even during some of their Network content including Story Time.

Looks like Gene is needed elsewhere to call the big matches. We were lucky to have him here for such a long time.

Very sad, I grew up with him and with Ed Whalen as the voices of wrestling. Mean Gene was always kind of on the cheesy side, but he was fun to watch.


RIP Mean "Whoooo" Gene
