Did anyone at all expect Mojo Rawley to defeat Shorty G on SmackDown this week? I don't think so. And yet, when he stood tall and proud (not a short joke, I promise) on SmackDown, Michael Cole mentioned what a major upset it was, and Corey Graves, the voice of reason, would then correct him.

Oh my God WE GET IT HE’S SHORT!!! #WWE #SmackDown

But this leads us to an even bigger issue which is that the short jokes on SmackDown seem to have gone on forever and Shorty G has not really gone anywhere since this whole gimmick began.

There could be so many significantly more creative ways to take this talented young man to the next level but from the looks of it, no real amount of time has been spent by the SmackDown creative team on his character. And while Mojo Rawley is certainly getting more screen time on SmackDown, he seems to be stuck in a limbo where he's neither moving forward nor backward at this point in time.
