1) Vince McMahon Doesn’t See Anything In RAW Superstar
There is a rumor making the rounds that Vince McMahon has given up on Cedric Alexander. It started with Dave Meltzer, who noted on Wrestling Observer Radio recently that WWE has no plans for Cedric:
“They’ve got no plans for Cedric. He’s a talented guy but his number is just not being called.”
WrestlingNews.co adds that Vince does not see Cedric as a big star and has given up trying to push him:
I asked someone in WWE about this and I was simply told that there are no backstage issues with Alexander but Vince McMahon simply does not see him as a big star.
The source said, “Vince will listen to Paul [Heyman] on some ideas but other times he can be close-minded and he sees nothing in Cedric. Vince gave up on him a long time ago.”
My Take:
- I like Cedric but he is caught in a logjam right now on RAW. Paul Heyman is trying to push guys like Aleister Black, Erick Rowan, Humberto Carrillo, and more. There just doesn’t seem to be airtime for them to also build up Cedric. He is a talented guy though and I am sure that his time will come.
