He was GM in FCW and was highly rated, hence his call up to do a talk show segment thing.
Ive not seen it in forever, but i majorly hated it and can understand those that do.
He has previously worked with the name Abraham Sadaam Washington. Damn you PG era.
There are probably a lot better matches out there, but just to show he isnt majorly terrible in the ring:

Personally i dont think he is being used correctly and working as GM would be a better fit, but meh.
