    Jordan Myles Goes Insane And 'Quits' WWE

    https://www.wrestlinginc.com/news/20...witter-662144/

    So Jordan Myles posted a video where he says he's 'quit' WWE. Now I don't know whether he's got the right to do that but it certainly seems like the guy has some issues.

    I get having issues with a t-shirt design that can be seen as racist (even though I couldn't see it) but the way he's gone about it certainly hasn't endeared him. Top that with him putting down Jay Lethal he seems like he's either jealous or has mental issues (maybe both) but I highly doubt he's going to be able to easily find work after this is all said and done. Heck WWE could just sit on him to wait out his contract.

    But yeah what do you guys think?

    I can imagine WWE brass watching this guy...

    "This Jordan Myles has potential, too bad he threw a fit over his t-shirt...."

    -Jordan Myles throwing a fit video-

    "....fuck is wrong with this guy? So much for that potential."
    Frank: Ludwig?!
    Goon: Drebin!
    Frank: Yeah, I'm Drebin!
    Goon: I have a message for ya from Vincent Ludwig!
    Goon: Take that, you lousy cop!
    Frank: I'm sorry! I can't hear ya! Don't fire the gun while you're talking!

    This has been going on for the better part of a month, maybe even just a bit longer.

    I saw the t-shirt design and thought it was uninspired, I certainly didn't see anything racist about it and Myles himself initially approved the design. He went on this rant about the shirt being a representation of blackface, somehow, as the design was the name Jordan Myles supposed to represent teeth in a smiling mouth while the rest of the t-shirt was solid black. I guess it was partially inspired because Myles has a big, bright smile? That was just the start of it as he also went off on Ring of Honor for holding down black wrestlers and only letting one black wrestler be a top guy, namely Jay Lethal whom he also called an Uncle Tom. He deleted that post on Twitter and it just kept going on from there and just seemed to be more angry and incoherent each time he posted something.

    As for whether or not he can "quit" WWE, who knows? It all depends on how his contract is set up and what the various legalities and technicalities say. For all we know, they could keep Myles tied up and unable to wrestle anywhere else indefinitely. If he refuses to wrestle, maybe WWE could sue him for breach of contract? Maybe they could threaten to extend his deal to keep him from going elsewhere? I have no idea what his issues are but I certainly don't see the value in WWE keeping him given the things he's said. Of course, he's deleted his Twitter account so, again, who knows what the hell is going on with this guy?

    Say what you will about his unprofessionalism, but they don't give the smiling black guy gimmick to folks they think have potential.

    As long as it wound up working, that's really all that matters.

    They gave New Day a dancing, singing, gospel gimmick and look what they turned that into. Just sayin.

    Can't believe this bares reminding given who all has had the latter, but somehow a dancing, singing, gospel gimmick has more potential than...smiling.

    It's a shame. I liked what I'd seen of ACH in other endeavours. Looks like his future endeavours will be his past ones.
