WWE officials had a golden opportunity on their hands at the conclusion of the MizDow angle. Sandow had used the storyline with The Miz to get over, more so than he had ever been. The fans were on fire for Sandow and the crowds roared at every sight of the Intellectual Savior of the Masses. Sandow was widely popular and his ring work was better than it had ever been.
So what was the problem?

Each and every week, fans would hold out hope that Sandow would come out and get involved in some sort of significant storyline. Unfortunately, the creative powers that be, felt it was better to have him dress up as Daniel Boone, Uncle Sam or some other ridiculous character.
When the cuts were made this year, I never expected to hear the news that Sandow was future-endeavored. Nonetheless, Damien Sandow was released and the masses were let down in a major way.

Sandow is currently one of the hottest free agents in wrestling, getting booked all over the world and from the looks of things, he's enjoying it. Hopefully someone will wake up one day and realize this was a mistake, letting such an underused talent slip away.
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
