WWE Over the Limit 2012 Results: Predicting Brodus Clay's Future After Big Win

One of the quicker matches of Over the Limit gave us a strong idea of the direction that two stars are going within the company.

The Miz vs. Brodus Clay pitted one of the biggest free falls of the company against one of the biggest risers, and Sunday did nothing to change their paths.

The “Funkasaurus” was heckled a bit by The Miz, who claimed to have his own dance moves. After awkwardly dancing to some Michael Jackson songs, I beg to differ.  

It was just another reason to point and laugh at The Miz.

Rather quickly he was destroyed by a second rope suplex, and Clay finished things off with a splash for the win. Brodus Clay looked unbeatable, and The Miz looked like a joke.

Clay has had plenty of squash matches and has yet to lose a PPV match. He is quickly becoming one of the bigger names in the sport and WWE needs to further catapult his young career.

One of my favorite moments of Monday Night Raw every week is his intro, as watching his female dancers spin around while he rocks back and forth always brings a smirk to my face.

He has really brought the entertainment side of a WWE performance to the table, but now he needs to bring the wrestling to the table.

Quick, name me one memorable Brodus Clay match—exactly.

It seems as if the creative team is slowly letting him get used to action in the ring, but now is the time to let the big man off his leash.

Clay needs to get on the mic so we can see what kind of charisma he owns. Fans need to see his personality shine so a big-time feud can be created.

With his popularity rising by the week, and with the emergence of Big Show back into the limelight, this would be a match made in heaven.

With the company fudging John Cena’s recent feuds and putting far too much of an emphasis on Chris Jericho despite his imminent departure, now is the time to take advantage of the momentum these two huge men hold to create one of the best summer feuds in the company.

Let’s hope WWE agrees.
