He was Akio. Now he's Jimmy Wayne Yang.

He was Jimmy Yang in WCW, TNA and ROH as well (someone mention the name "Yun Yang" in WCW, but I always thought he was Jimmy Yang there, as well).

owenbrown, you may be right. It's not even entertaining in an "OMFG this is gonna tank but be hilarious as a result" way. Just...sad.

I do think they could have just has Jimmy Yang cut a promo on an edition of SmackDown! before he faced a jobber:
"Ladies and gentleman, you are about you witness the debut of the next Cruiserweight Champion of the World, and the greatest Cruiserweight Champion of the World, as I plan on ending the legendary streak of current Champion, Gregory "Don't Call Me Sugar Shane" Helms. Before I treat my opponent tonight to a taste of what Hell undoubtedly feels like, I would like to emphasise that although you may recognise me from my previous stint as "Akio", I was born on the west coast of American, I have eaten American food for my entire life, and I have made love to many a beautiful American woman. Now ring the bell so I can go help get Michelle McCool into ring shape." It would serve the purpose of getting him over as an American, a wrestler, and it gives him personality. Unfortunately the WWE needs to stereotype every single wrestler they have. |

I love the name. It's halarious. And its not like he could ever get over without an gimmick, just see how successful the Akio "character" was. (using that loosely)

I'll be the one person who liked it then.
It was so hammy it was funny to me. Of course it isn't the best they could do with him, but guess what, the whole company is that way, so why complain about Jimmy Yang? |

I liked it. Hell, he isn't exactly mister personality, give the guy something to stand out from the crowd, we don't need any more vanilla cruiser weights. Plus we get Akio wrestling again win win.

No but cruiserweights aren't supposed to have characters. They're just supposed to do their flippy-gymnastic stuff blindly and pointlessly with no desire to connect with the fans on a personal and marketable level. Duh!

Cruiserweight matches are the matches where they accidentally wind up in the ring and have to fight each other and one has to win to get the directions out of them.

Was that Yang's real voice? It looked like it could have been dubbed in, but also looked kind of legit.

I know there was some question as to whether it was "Wang" or "Wayne" - Look here - http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/ - at the bottom, they call him "Jimmy Wang Yang".

From wwe.com
In addition to all the in-ring action, SmackDown fans saw a video that again showcased Boogeyman’s most horrid exploits (Watch the video). Boogeyman will be in action soon on SmackDown, and so will another Superstar that we were introduced to on Friday: a most unusual redneck, Jimmy Wayne Yang. (See Yang’s video) There's your Wayne. |
