Why is Test being rehired?
I remember Test when he was in the WWE he was not that great it is like running promos saying Billy Gun is returning.

Two reasons. Vince likes living in the past and Vince likes big men. When you get those two together he has a timegasm.

He was a solid worker. That's why. Okay, so he wasn't that talented, but he had some good matches and feuds (with the exception of Scott Steiner...eugh). I remember some of the stuff he did with Shane McMahon back in 1999.
If they'd have built on what happened to him with the whole Triple H/Steph wedding angle, he could have been huge. He was getting some GREAT crowd reaction at that time. He was let go when he was having trouble overcoming an ankle injury. A little unfair, but I'm glad he's been given this chance. |

Yea, not only should Test not have been fired upon his injury inflicted by Shane the wonderboy, but test should have been managed better after the whole wedding angle. The fued with Steiner and Stacy Kiebler should not have happened. Goodness the WWE sucked then.

My bad guys. Thanks for pointing that out.
Just seemed that the ankle injury he sustained was mentioned alot back on WWE programming, that's where I got the idea from. Once again, thanks. |

I think it's hilarious that the WWF made a big deal when they brought back X-Pac, and had him cut a promo about how WCW had fired him while he was rehabbing an injury and how bad WCW was for doing that.
...then they turn right around and do it to Andrew Martin. And they release Charlie Haas for taking time off...to go on his honeymoon! |

The real reason:
Vince thought of two more "Testicle" jokes he could make. |

I was hoping he'd be a bodyguard for Matt Stryker so he could talk about how "you should've been paying attention and now you have to pass the test". Then Test annihilates some guy.
And hilarity ensues. |

Test has about the same ability as -- if not more than -- Randy Orton. And, in my opinion, he's less of a scumbag. And if anyone deserves to be rehired strictly on apologetic status, it's him. The company fucked him bad with his injury, and it's about time they make up for it.

...although I wouldn't complain if he got a bunch of interview time that resulted in humorous captionable pictures. Especially if said pictures also include Stacy Keibler, Ultimo Dragon, Abyss, Batista, Hulk Hogan, Kurt Angle, Shane McMahon, Chris Benoit, AJ Styles... Okay. So, maybe not. |

Actually, during 1999, I thought for sure that Test was the next big thing in this business. The Test-Stephanie angle really drew in the female fans and, although Test is a Horse-faced bastard, I guess some could find him attractive. Russo's leaving fucked him over harder than anyone else, as the Marriage thing was one of Russo's major projects, and only he knew how it was gonna end initially (Knowing Russo, it was probably gonna be the revelation that Test was actually the son of Vince and some hooker, but...)

I, too, began to see Test as a future WT holder. Boo if you must, but I have no trouble seeing him as a future ME guy.

Test was a decent guy in WWE, though. And there's fuck all for ME material in ECW right now, so it fits. Test could be big without being on the mic, because that's not what the new ECW is supposed to be about.
He's not the total package, but he clearly got the job done. |

I must say Test was In superb condition on ECW, he looked better than I recall I can only hope ECW does not mess this guy up.
