Maddox
Playing off equally dubious stereotypes, Southern gentleman or inbred redneck, Brad, born Tyler Kluttz in South Carolina, can be convincing as a babyface or a villain. One third Brad Pitt, a third Butch from The Little Rascals, and a third early-'90s Buff Bagwell, Maddox can look dimwitted one second and calculating the next, all aw-shucks modesty then all of a sudden he's rhinestone-encrusted narcissism, clownish hick then savvy as a velvet tuxedo.
I haven't followed his WWE career--as I haven't followed ANY wrestler's WWE career--but in the bits and pieces I catch now and then, he blends the charms of wet-behind-the-ears amateurism and sharp professionalism, without tipping far to either side. I'm not sure he's cut out for any one ring gimmick or style; I imagine he's a "hard to place" talent, but I find Brad Maddox always watchable.
In any form, he is bewitching. Wow!
ReplyDeleteI love Brad Maddox, so much.
ReplyDeleteP.S. DON'T follow his WWE career--it only leads to heartache.
DeleteAs do SO many WWE careers. Big money, well deserved, but usually lousy wrestling...
ReplyDeleteWWE was totally wasting him as a suited ring announcer. But even in a suit you could see that his body was buff. In looking on Cagematch I see that he's back to ring action since late March. But I've never seen so many dark matches. 15/36. And they seem to have relegated him to jobber status. 1W/36. That's perfectly lousy. He deserves much better.
ReplyDeleteBased on his general record, he should have won 12/13 matches.
