Dunno why... Trevor Murdoch...
Trevor Murdoch is the first new guy in a long time that I absolutely hate. I don't know what it is, but something about him pisses me off, and quite frankly I'm happy with it. He's the first heel in a while I can hate in a non-mark environment.

He has a personality.
That, and it's been a while since we've had a heel that didn't fall into the following 3 categories: 1. Monster Heel (Big Show, Kane) 2. Cowardly Heel (99.99 % of the Heel roster NOT in group one.) 3. Triple H Seriously, a Roughneck Heel is something that has become fresh again. |

I hate him b/c he's such a blatant Larry the Cable Guy rip off. And I don't even like Larry the Cable Guy.

Why the hell is Murdoch getting pushed above:
Shelton Benjamin. Chavo Guerrero. Rob Conway(what happened to his push?) Gregory Helms. and a lot of others... |

Honestly I love what they are doing with Murdoch. Not overly happy he went over Shelton, but I'm thinking that might eventually lead to a heel turn for Shelton so it could work out in the end.
I really had no opinion of Murdoch when he showed up, but he looks like a old-school heel, and he acts like an old-school heel. I may be just craving nostalgia, but it works for me. |

I think it's kind of refreshing that an absolutly average looking person is kicking ass. Remember when not everybody was a fined tuned, perfectly sculpt wrestler? I think it's great. He's a throwback to pre mid90's

I might have missed it, but why is Murdoch a singles wrestler now? Did they break Cade and Murdoch up? And if so, did they give any reason?

At first I was happy with the whole "out of shape lookin guy winning" but honestly... would it hurt to work out just a little?

At least Vader and Vis still look like a threat though cause of their size. Murdoch looks like my next door neighbor.

A big thing in wrestling is Variety. Having a bunch of guys coming out built the same, look the same, etc etc isn't really good for the business. Hell, look at the X-Division. Outside of Joe, Daniels, and Styles when he comes out, there's a bunch of guys I can't tell apart.
Why not have a fat guy win matches? I see a good solid midcard run for him. I doubt he'll be on top, so why not have a midcard guy whose grandiosely unrefined. Besides, he's not bad on the stick. |

I think he's got a great look. He is decent in the ring and plays his character REALLY well. Mudoch and Cade should get a better push.
WWE is a fucking joke. |

Wrestling fans either hate him or love him due to the following:
Hate - because they realise that he's fugly and scruffy, and can actually wrestle, and they're looking at themselves and knowing they could do better. Me personally, there's no chance I can do better. I know this. Love - because they realise that he's fugle and scruffy, and can actually wrestle, and they're looking at themselves and knowing they could do better.

Here's a solution - turn the channel when he comes on and you won't have to deal with his face.
Additionally, in the long-term, if we all do this enough and on a regular basis the WWE might even realise the ratings slump during his segment and kick the fucker off Raw... but in the mean-time, just turn over |

I love Trevor. Why? Becuase he's such a throwback to the 80's in a time where every dam guy on the roster has this chizzled body and these model-esque looks. Mordock has a "real world" look to him and that's what the WWE seems to be missing now and days. You take one look a Trevor and you know immediately that he's got to be a heel. Lots of character definition with him.

That's the point man. When I look at the new crop of wrestlers, I ask myself, can these guys cut it as a face and as a heel. Murdoch...is a lower card heel. He's a friggin' joke. Bought as funny as a sack of doorknobs. I find him about as plesent as being beaten by a sack of 'em. Thus why I dislike Murdoch. He's playing a character that hasn't been popular since the 1980s.

I like Trevor Murdoch. He's playing the character perfectly, and I love the way they're not having him and Lance Cade seem "buddy-buddy" all the time. I read a house show report where Lance Cade (who I also like) did some chain-wrestling with Val Venis and shook Venis' hand afterwards. Trevor Murdoch then through one of his trademark fits and abused Cade for shaking Venis' hand.
I don't know why, but I find something very charming about the character. He may not ever headline WrestleMania, but he's decent enough in the ring to warrant and IC Title run or two. Just for the record, I can see him playing a face easily. Have him come out, kick ass, and take no names. Stone Cold rip-off? Nah, there's something more helpless about the Trevor Murdoch character. For some reason I'd love to see him to be involved in a "beauty and the beast" storyline, where he tries to win over a diva, but they just won't take the bait. I wouldn't ever have Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch feud. If you decide to stop using them as a tag team, fine, but let them retain some sort of alliance (sort of like Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas). If they ever do play out a storyline where Trevor Murdoch tries to win over the woman of his dreams, Lance Cade in the role of a redneck "Hitch" could be perfect. My favourite thing about the Cade/Murdoch pairing, right from the start, has been how different their characters are. On one hand they seem to be really close, but on the other their differences seperate them so much. Give both more room to develop. I'd have Cade work a program with Shawn Michaels (his mentor), while Murdoch does his own thing for a while, and eventually have them come together full-time, again. |

Just FYI, Harley Race did an interview a while back and he was asked who he would wrestle if he could wrestle any of today's stars he would wrestle either CM Punk or Trevor Murdoch.

I saw him wrestle at a house show back in the summer. I thougth "total jobber", but no. He had some talent. He reminded me of an old school heel. He played a heel very well. Not a huge ass jerk, but complaining, yelling at the ref, and reacting to the crowd perfectly.
He'll never be a main eventer, but I'd like to see him around for a while. |
