Where's that pirate guy?
Ok, maybe I blinked and missed it, but where the hell is everyone's favourite wrestler Burchill?
I'm a huge mark for the guy and I was unsure about his change of direction gimmick-wise, but found reassurance in the possibility they'd be pushing him and his pirate gimmick to compliment the Pirates of the Carribean film. So, four months later, we have the film but no Burchill. What's going on? Quote:

Burchill's out on injury, which was explained by Mark Henry taking him out. He'll be back, sans pirate gimmick. A shame.

He's injured? I heard they just sent him back down to OVW.

I believe it was knee problems. It was being reported around here, and that he'd be coming back without the gimmick (According to him on some interview).

Yeah, I've heard nothing about him being sent to OVW. Pretty sure he's just out on injury.

Hopefully he'll come back with an even sweeter gimmick...like a viking or a Storm Trooper.

or he'll just be Burchill. But he'll need a manager to get over in the States if he is just Burchill.

Maybe Just Burchill could be like Just Joe. I loved that gimmick.

I really wish Just Joe would've been around longer, just to see what they would have done with it.

He was around circa 1999, I believe. Before the brand split. Pretty sure it was Joe E. Legend. Anyway, his gimmick was he was just go around backstage and start rumors. Something lke "the Undertaker said you were a pussy" and they guy'd be like "Oh, REALLY? I'll show him!" and start a fight with the Undertaker or something. Every time they'd ask who the hell he was, he'd say "I'm just Joe".

Thank goodness his burial had a legit reason (sorta). Usually people just disappear because they're too popular.

Don't be ridiculous.

It annoys me, though, that Benoit gets 'taken out' by Henry to cover for him basically going on vacation, and Burchill gets 'taken out' by Henry to recoup from a severe knee twist...but all we hear is "Henry destroyed Benoit! Henry destroyed Benoit!!!"

Burchill's a rookie, and despite getting a great reaction (Which, of course, is bad, because he's only been in WWE for a few months, and thus is obviously green), he's going to be treated as one. |

Oh, I know it did. Just saying.
Actually, I'm kinda glad they haven't been playing up Henry's injury streak more. It's annoying to see Burchill drop out of notice, but he was never really in the spotlight to begin with... |

LOL, a local alt rock station (95.5 WBRU) uses audio clips from various GI Joe PSA parodies in their ads. One has something to do with winning a computer, then an edited version of that kid above plays: "I dunno much about computers other than the one we got, my mom put a couple of games on there."
