Sandow is such a pure performer and is dearly missed.
Each year, there's a time period known as "black Friday." It's a time in which WWE trims the fat, so to speak and cuts costs by releasing superstars that they deem to be easily replaceable or maybe just not needed at the time. This year was a puzzling year, in the minds of many fans. WWE released several superstars, including one star who had a world of untapped potential. That superstar was known as Damien Sandow.

Sandow was adored by the fans and during his run as the Miz stunt double, his stock went through the roof. So, what exactly does WWE do with someone who could potentially provide a plethora of quality productivity to the brand? Well, they let him go and wish him well on his "future endeavors."
When he was released, Sandow instantly became the most in-demand free agent in wrestling and today, he now calls TNA his new home. Once again, WWE's loss became someone else's gain.

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.
