Brad Maddox Story, my way

As you may, or may not have heard, Brad Maddox got his a** handed to him this past week at the hands of Ryback.
Now, I’m going to be one of the very few people, I think, who actually support this young kid. I like him. He’s just got something about him. And he’s championship material….

Brad Maddox began his wrestling career in OVW where he was a one time OVW Television Champion and a one time OVW Heavyweight Champion. In August 2010,  he went on to FCW where he was a two-time Florida Tag Team Champion and a one time FCW 15 Champion.
So he’s championship material. No doubt there. But, for most people, his story has just begun….

In August 2012 he got called up to the main roster of WWE where he began as a referee. He had only officiated a couple of matches when he was set to be the referee in the bout of CM Punk vs. Ryback at Hell In A Cell 2012. Ryback looked set to win the bout but Brad had other ideas.

The following RAW, Brad Maddox really introduced himself to the WWE Universe stating that his actions at Hell In A Cell were not to aid Punk at keeping the title, but to get HIMSELF noticed. Because, apparently, he had been told throughout his career that he wouldn’t make it and that he should give up. Well, he had his ticket to superstardom and he was going to ride it for all that it was worth. He asked for a match against Ryback, which, to the surprise of the WWE Universe, Vince McMahon agreed to.
Vince stated that should Brad Maddox win his match, he would get a $1 Million dollar contract to be a superstar in the WWE.
Well, we all know how well that worked out for him.

Now, the rumour going round the ‘Internet Mill’ per say, is that Brad Maddox is a Triple H guy. Which means that he will have a lot of support in terms of developing his character and a lot of resources at his disposal. And, as I said, I like the kid. He’s cute, has the superstar look, and to me just has an “IT” factor. He actually reminds me a lot of Edge and I think if he can take all that negativity that he talks about, turns it around and uses it, who knows, maybe we’re looking at the next big thing. Or, the next ‘Ultimate Opportunist’. He’s already started that ;)

Anyway, let me know what you think.

Have fun and take care.
