I don't know where he is but I do know that he deserves better than the terrible ing booking he's been subjected to over the past six months or so. Just another example of a guy getting over for a reason not specifically planned and crafted by the WWE brain trust and getting punished for it after WWE got their quick cash-in. Fandango was over for all of three weeks...

Meh. Not really a fan. He's a fairly average wrestler with marginal charisma and a character I cant back or hate.

I would love if they tweaked his gimmick. Instead of talking in that weird deep voice, he talks how he normally does as seen on on Countdown and Total Divas and all that. And have him do a "better than you" thing against the heels where they can't seem to get him, and do the dancing thing after they miss getting him. Be better than random cocky dancer.

There is really only so much you can do with a character who is a ballroom dancer. I actually thought he was decent in the ring and from what you see of him on Total Divas he looks like he could have had a pretty good on air personality under a different gimmick, but a ballroom dancer! how did anyone in the creative department think that was going to have any kind of longevity.

Fandango's character was fine when he had a manager like Summer or Layla. Now that he's solo, I reckon he should take on a more cocky and snarky attitude. He can definitely do it, although it may clash with his theme song. His theme song is pretty iconic in WWE now. Otherwise if they bring another Diva to manage him, it'll be the same boring stuff. A face turn could maybe work too.

I think The Fandango Character reached its course it was fun while it lasted.
I mean he was Over for awhile since the crowd was dancing and singing his theme song but I think what the main problem was the WWE promoting it I remember a segment they had with Fandango himself Jerry the king lawler where they pretty much promoting the thing saying "Hey Check out the newest dance craze" "Everyone is Fandangoing!" Which made no sense to do that because he's a heel and he shouldn't be promoting that.And also you know how WWE is with social media and crap so of course the crowd is gonna stop because of them.If anything Summer Rae and Layla was really the only two that gain something after this.
He's a decent wrestler but he does need to be repackaged maybe put him in a tag team with someone I don't know honestly.

The Fandango character to me died once they did away with the special stage and light bright figure above the ring.

That's the question. I'm not a fan personally, but if he could compete for the IC or the US, it'd be nice.

EVERYTHING in Wrestling is debatable. The two of you disagree and that's fine(like Batfleck said)so its time to move on now. Back OT......I really liked Fandango and thought the character had potential if they veered him a bit more towards a Rick Rude type gimmick.

Discussing Fandango is quite on topic, and no, not everything is debatable. Where is he? Catering because he's not over.

Before you get too excited-I was referring to my own post when citing "back OT". I also disagree about everything in wrestling not being debatable. see how that works?

Hopefully he is somewhere in hiding until they allow everyone to forget about his character, and have time to come up with a new one for him. Terrible gimmick that was eye rolling before he debuted. He was never over. People were making fun of him and his crap theme which WWE mistook as him actually being over, then they quickly squashed that organic movement instead of capitalizing on it.
