How Mike Knox's still has a job and is getting some kind of push is still beyond me. As for D'Lo, he is still a solid veteran wrestler who could do good things for the mid-card scene. But it looks like he is now a jobber and that really sucks since I have always liked D'Lo.
What WWE needs to do is send him over to ECW to help him get over with the newer fans. I reckon the WWE did have big plans for him but then scrapped those when he returned and got no reaction from the fans because half of them didnt know who he was.
Shame to see such as good talent be jobbed out to someone who should of been fired by now.

The winner of the match gets to front the next issue of PlayGirl.
Come to think of it, that would be the best match possible. So, er... just another Kennel from Hell match would qualify.
Goldust, Val Venis and D'Lo all have potential but apparently Vince focuses more on the younger, newer stars (which isn't helping his product too well). Goldust just needs to lose 20 lbs, Val needs to grow out his hair, and even D'Lo can lose a few pounds. But weight loss and facial hair isn't what's keeping these guys down, it's Vince's view which is slowly fucking up his company since 2000.
So the complaint used to be "Vince focuses on the old timers to much" now it's "Vince focuses on the new guys too much" WTF do you want?
Even if he is now a jobber, he should not be squashed like that unless he is on his way out. Though the good point is D-Lo is actually being used(even as a jobber)
Then you have D-Lo, who isn't exactly 'young' anymore, but still has plenty of gas left in the tank to make another run at the IC/Tag Championships. If he brought back the chest protector, WWE could make a killing off T-shirts with chest-protectors printed on them. It just doesn't seem like WWE has any major plans for him at his age.
To bring back the chest protector you'd probably have to do a heel turn as well (the chest protector classed as a weapon) but then I always thought D' Lo was more entertaining as a cocky heel.
As for Mike Knox, meh, the new face of gillette maybe :S
The match yesterday was a disaster. D'Lo has great potential, being still quite athletic, and having some really fine wrestling moves. I have no idea why they would make him job to this average, retarded monster heel (little bit better than Snitsky) with no personality. At least Knox's finisher looks powerful
By the way, when is the upper midcard that important to anyone?
Because The Upper Midcard is where the new main eventers are born... Seriously with the proper push D'Lo could be in the Upper Midcard where he could REALLY help the younger guys.
