WWE Cancel Tensai Push

Tensai
failed to impress WWE officials in his pinfall victory over John Cena
on the April 16 Raw SuperShow in London, England and was deemed "a flop"
backstage as a result.
Tensai was brought into the company to
face Cena and put him over, at the company's Over the Limit and No Way
Out PPV events but his poor showing in the match on Raw led to his push
being stopped and Big Show was moved into his place.
WWE have
also changed their summer live events which were advertised to be
headlined by Tensai and John Laurinaitis vs. Cena, replacing Tensai with
Big Show.
Tensai has yet to be defeated on TV, but he
suffered his first pinfall loss before a WWE crowd in in a dark match
after Monday's Raw to Cena - during a handicap match Cena pinned Tensai
rather than John Laurinaitis.
They plan to move Tensai to WWE Superstars while his character is changed and they can think of something else for him.
Could this be the return of the "Hip Hop Hippo"?
That's all we need.
