What's up Bleaches? ''No time to waste, so let's get to it!"

WOW! The WWE is on a role. Two releases in one month? ''Bravo WWE, Bravo!'' (sighs).

OMG! This phrase is really getting annoying, but here it goes: ''The WWE has come to the terms, on the release of WWE Superstar Eugene, as of August 14th, 2009 and we wish Eugene the best in all future Endeavors.''

Now this is stupid to me. Why in the Hell would you bring back the guy after all these freaking years, have him wrestle in one match, and then release they guy?

But in the end I guess the only reason they brought the guy back in the first place, was to help give Miz a stupid excuse to come back to Raw, by putting him in a ''Contract on the pole match,'' where whoever climbs the pole, and pulls down the contract, gets a new contract to wrestle.

Deep down inside, I knew that Eugene wasn't gonna win shit, but that was the best they could do to bring back the Miz? I mean ''Calgary Kid'?' Seriously? Just like Shane said, they should have milked it longer and maybe even build him up better for a bigger return.

IMO, during his time with the WWE, Eugene didn't accomplish much, except for becoming a one time, WTTC along side Regal, after they defeated ''La Resistance,'' but other than that, they just basically used the guy as a showcase act just to make people laugh (Which he did by the way and was mainly used as Eric Bishoff's nephew and would sometimes take over for him when Eric was not present).

In OVW, Eugene got a lot of success in that area and along with becoming a 11-time OVW TTC, he would go on to become the only wrestler in OVW history, to win the Heavyweight title a record setting ''nine times,''  but other than those things he accomplished, I seriously believed that his talent could have been used much better.

I honestly believe that Eugene could have been way more successful in the WWE, but due to being given a bad gimmick and not really being recognized as a mega-star, Eugene would always remain stuck in the ''Dumb syndrome Character,'' and even though his gimmick might have been tweaked a little by making him look like a ''Super Hero,'' of some sort, the dumbsydrome gimmick would always be the main centre piece of his act.

Eugene was no way a crappy wrestler. The guy was trained by one of the greatest athletic and technical wrestlers of all time, The HOF-er called ''The Iceman'' Dean Malenko, and had all the skills necessary to make a big star.

But the guy just never got the right pushes and was always adorned with lame and crappy gimmicks that got him NOWHERE, but although he might not wrestle anymore, it is said that they will keep him as a trainer to help build up new and fresh young wrestlers, so at least he will be doing something constructive by pushing the stars of tomorrow.

That's it for me, Bleaches!
