Kid is 22, built like a darker greek god, and is better in the ring every time we see him. The sky is the limit for him, even if they let him keep up this gimmick.

Hell, this gimmick might even get him more over nationally than anything else in today's environment. Simply because he would get a lot of publicity as a seemingly "openly gay" character.

There are times I wonder if HHH and NXT gave him this gimmick as a sink or swim, to teach Clark to come out of his shell and perform a character.

to be fair... it's not really an "openly gay" character...

it's just a mock-up of Prince

and a much better job of it than the Artist Formerly known as Prince Iaukea in WCW

I said seemingly, because...well....go watch his interactions with black before their takeover match.

I can't actually watch because I don't have the network. Following the live thread on reddit though. Lotta comments about that Dallas bit...

I'm pretty sure the announcer had to know what he was doing.

Yeah, but there was a comment or two saying he hammed it up a bit.

I'm not a fan of the extreme over-selling of this arm injury by Ember

esp. right after she hit the Eclipse
