Low Ki/Kaval was one of those cases where, when he was jobbed off of WWE, I thought "that's a missed opportunity there, they need new talent and he had potential" (and there was the whole excessive celebration thing or whatever), and then you hear about what he's like and it's "Huh, they dodged a bullet there."

Is there anyone more bought into his gimmick than Low Ki? Like he is all in on that poo poo. It's amazing.

What are you looking at?
Low-Ki was very much into his gimmick, and felt the need to protect it even before he was hired by WWE for that one NXT season. I remember trying to have a conversation with him and he did the whole Low-Ki voice even as I tried to tell him that he didn't need to do that as we were just having a conversation.

EDIT: Apologies for how redundant this seems.

He responded to New Japan telling him "don't do the Hitman cosplay at Wrestle Kingdom" by not only wearing it at WK and getting fired for it, but still doing it in America for GFW 4 years later. I don't know if it's out of protest or he genuinely thinks it looks cool, because he sure as poo poo ain't getting paid for doing it

Whats really sad is that I googled this and was expecting to see Low Ki wearing pink and black and having a long curly wig on.

my favorite part of this is that he wants to do the hitman adjust tie casually thing during his entrance but doesn't actually know what you are supposed to do and just kinda waves his hand around his tie.

Low Ki actually had a really good match with Sonjay Dutt at the PPV, even wearing the stupid Hitman getup.


Is there any reason why Dutt never got a chance with WWE?

He's really short and not nearly talented or charismatic enough to make up for it.

Dutt had an offer on the table to be a trainer at the wwe performance center that could have maybe turned into something more with their attempt at pushing into the Indian market a few weeks ago

My favorite TNA memory is still one of the Feast or Fired matches with the four briefcases on poles.

Early on they did the lucha-trainwreck sequence where everyone just dives from the ring into the pile of people already outside, one at a time. Samoa Joe was the only person still in the ring and had an uncontested path to as many briefcases as he wanted.

So he just shrugged and plowed into the pile of bodies once they all stood up without grabbing a case. He never ended up with a case that year.

Only winning move in Feast or Fired is to not play

The only good angle I can think of for a Feast or Fired match is that thing they did once where Billy Gunn helped Road Dogg get the briefcase and it turned out to be a tag title.

But the briefcase should end up as the fired briefcase and the tag team partners feud over who actually owns the briefcase

Low-Ki was involved in a match where upon the bell ringing he did a rolling kick that knocked his opponent's dick stiff. The dude is straight unconscious. Ki struts around the ring doing his angry monkey shtick while the other guys manager tries everything to wake him up. Ki tries to do more poo poo but the carcass in the ring with him refuses to respond, so he gets on the mic and trashes everyone in the locker room for lack of heart because they are not warriors like him.

He was angry that the man he knocked out cold would not wake up so he could get the rest of his poo poo in.
