Yeah, I'm glad the WWE has kept hold of Ryan Reeves, Justice Smith (apparently), Mike Mizanin and Nick Mitchell.
It's also nice to see the guys who you are a fan of find direction. I haven't been a Sylvain-mark, but I've always seen potential there. His singles matches with Conway on Heat where always interesting, IMO, and he's always had the look of a likeable guy, or a completely hateable one. I really hope they give him a face push. I think it would work.
I agree with The Bashams sentiment, too. In OVW The Bashams were two of the top singles guys they had. Damaja and Machine where HUGE down there. I've read someone say that Benoit said Doug Basham can go hold-for-hold with him. That is something the WWE needs to show us, and soon. I am personally looking forward to seeing the Damaja on RAW. I've always pictured ihm as a Rhyno-type character, mowing people down, going in and walking out unphased by the destruction he causes. I'm not sure if that's anything like the character "Danny Basham" plays, but I am looknig forward to seeing him. For some reason I can see Basham vs. Triple H making HEAPS of money, andpossibly being a classic. Either that or a Damaja pairing with Ric Flair and Helmsley.
