10 WWE Superstars in Risk of Being Released

1. David Otunga

Why? Why is he still on the WWE superstar roster online? Why is he still wearing the sweater vest over a long-sleeve shirt?

I would rather just leave it here, but I have to go through the explanation of why he should be gone. Well, the partner (they were engaged in 2008 and have one child, but no word on being married) of singer Jennifer Hudson and that might be his only saving grace.

Otunga is six-feet tall and is a very well-built 229 pounds. But there’s more to the book than a cover and in this case, it’s not great. The former Harvard Law School graduate is about as entertaining to watch wrestling as a five-year-old with an old-school Hulk Hogan Wrestling Buddy from the 1980s.

He never stood out in the ring and has been sub par as a backstage character that was meant to support John Laurinaitis as a legal advisor. The travel mug he drank coffee from was more memorable than he was talking. And now he is basically a host on the pre-show for Raw on the WWE Network.

Otunga is starting to seem like the cockroach that might survive the nuclear holocaust and hasn’t been noticed by anyone who wishes to squash it. Maybe he’s good at surviving the future endeavors list like JTG was a few years ago.
