Low Ki already had a recent run in WWE and then asked for his release (as he did from TNA). His attitude is pretty notorious. I think Petey might have had some wellness issues. Lethal deserves a chance.
Oh, and in answer to your original question, I don't like Alex Shelley at all. He does the wrestling equivilent of breaking the fourth wall all the time with his over-selling and mannerisms in the ring. I know part of it is his character, but it takes me totally out of a match (and his spotty moveset doesn't help).
Shelley has been out injured. I think he was expected to be back about now.
Thanks for the info and honesty. I heard that Low Ki just didn't impress the WWE brass and the same thing happened with Claudio Castignoli, which is just sad.
Low Ki may have pissed people off in the past, but I love his serious attitude about wrestling and his stiff, very credible style. I wished he and Samoa Joe could be TNA main eventers long-term.
I get what you're saying about Alex, but I still think his spots and body language are very entertaining, so I don't mind them at all. What you say about Petey Williams disappoints me, but it's believable. The dude looks way too cut for a guy his size.
