I kind of miss Trevor Murdoch a lot. The guy is still only 35 years old. I mean, that's no spring chicken, but he's still got some years left for a potential run somewhere, whether it be as a singles act or as part of a team/faction. I'd be extremely happy to see Murdoch given another run as a henchman to Chris Jericho or a member of The Wyatt Family. Why do they all need to be huge monsters?
I got thinking about him, because I saw Jax Dane's name pop up somewhere and I had no clue what he actually looked like, so I Google imaged and the guy and he's got that truck driver look. A guy with a Dane association is Rob Conway (former NWA World Tag Team Champions). Conway always had a good reputation for being a good guy to work with, a professional attitude, and despite being 41, he still looks like he's in good shape. Apparently the WWE did offer him a trainer position, but he still feels like he has something to offer in the ring. Why not sign Conway and give him sort of a "he's a multi-time champion that has been training and is ready to make one last run" sort of thing.
Hell, sign both Murdoch and Conway and put them together as a tag team. Murdoch is a guy with an...unusual physique, and Conway looks like he was carved out of granite. There's an interesting dichotomy there and there could be something charming about two guys who had tag team success with two very different partners in the past. Even if it were just a run in NXT to work with younger guys.
Murdoch singing Conway's theme could be comedy gold too. "Just look at him."
