5 WWE Superstars who deserve better

#4 The Ascension

Enter captio — It's time for The Ascension to RISE!

If you have followed my work over the past year or so, you're probably well aware that I am a firm believer in The Ascension. I became a fan when these guys were lighting it up in NXT and I've stuck with them ever since. Unfortunately, their time on the main roster has been nothing to write home about.

Konnor and Viktor are grossly underrated and I can tell you from first-hand experience, they are extremely good guys outside of the ring. I have had the opportunity to meet both of them on two separate occasions and both times, they were a joy to be around.

From my interaction with them, it was obvious that they were very grateful to be WWE Superstars and they are excited about their future with the company. Now if fans and WWE officials alike can just give them a chance, I think we will all be happy with the outcome.

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.
