Who is Mordecai?, Reason for Jackhammer loss, Hirohito debut, SD rating and more
May 2 2004 at 4:58 PM
- Goldberg recently spoke negatively about WWE for making him stop using his Jackhammer move at the end of his WWE stint. The reason that WWE made him stop using it was because many wrestlers complained that he was reckless with the move.
- WWE Smackdown finished with a 3.1 rating this week, same as last week. The 9-9:15 quarter hour produced the highest rating, a 3.3.
- As reported, WWE new Mordecai character will be played by OVW developmental wrestler Kevin Fertig. Many feel Fertig is very green in the ring but makes up for it in poise. Despite that, most feel he will just be used to job to the Undertaker.
- The new bald wrestler with Christian named Tyson Tomko is not liked backstage. Tomko sometimes worked dark matches or house shows in the past and when he arrived backstage, he acted like he was something special.
- Kenzo Suzuki, or Hirohito as he will be known in WWE, is apparently set to make his TV debut on the May 10th edition of RAW. He will be accompanied to the ring by a North American "bodyguard." Suzuki will be playing some type of World War II gimmick where he is anti-American and trying to get revenge for the Japanese.
