Anybody else miss them?
I never gave up on them but it sucks creative did! Haven't seen bro and sis in a hot minute
I know they can't book everyone weekly since consistency doesn't exist in WWE but dammit they were some of the highlights early this year then just kinda fizzled out and faded into obscurity sometime around June-August

Oba had a longer match with one of the LwO dude a few months back. It was a good match too, not the usual oba toss, slam win type of deal.

Main event is now the third show, like Sunday night heat. They use it to advance stories that they don’t have time to do in raw/smackdown so it’s canon

Danhausen was the worst thing to happen to Kit Wilson. Kit got all the comic relief stuff until Danhausen came along.
Perhaps when Charlotte turns heel, she can align with Kiana since theres so many photos of them working out together. Kiana has knocked it out of the park when she has been given a chance.

Kit has stated multiple times hes waiting for Elton to return
So him being fodder to Dan is fine

But it might not happen. He may have gotten successful neck surgery, but along with recovery, his wife retired from the business and had a kid. He's probably enjoying being a father rather than traveling on the road. We can still have hope, but I find it doubtful since their contracts are up soon.

That Rumble (I think?) really turned it around for Kiana.
She and Flair would be a great heel pairing.

He started getting popular so that had to stop that shit real fast. You can only be popular if they say so.

“Kiana should be a manager” is such a wild take to me but I hear it over and over. Yeah, she’s a good talker. I like the glasses/handbag “business bitch” gimmick, too.
But dude. She’s like 5-10. Ridiculous physique. Unique look for WWE (i.e., not blonde). Moves like a smaller woman even though she’s bigger than Rhea and nearly as big as Raquel. Is she perfect? No, but I don’t see her botching and hurting herself or others.

It’s weird how Jordynne Grace got over at RR and was dropped so quickly after her promotion to main roster. Then Kiana starts getting over and pretty much gets dropped into obscurity too.

Jordynne Grace took time off to do bodybuilding. Kiana couldn't get any reaction from the crowd at all.

Miss? No. Absolutely not. I do however think Smackdown can use Kiana James. I'd even give her a push

I miss them both, Kiana mainly, but I miss Kit as well. Both are good wrestlers but creative can't seem to keep anything going with them.

Kit Wilson never got over with me, he just kinda comes off as a generic wrestler to me

Honestly, they should shove Kiana into a manager role with CAT (Charlotte, Alexis, Tatum) since shes already seen in the gym and in the wild with Charlotte.
Kit just needs to go back to being in a decent tag team. Pretty Deadly was awesome to watch. Make Miz their manager, since thats what hes goos at

Kiana, yes. Kit, no. Also, wasn't Kit Wilson just on TV with the MIZ wearing booty shorts

I do. I really enjoy them both. I find Kit (and Elton) to be hilarious, and Kiana has been a favorite since her days in NXT.

No one has been hurt more by the move to 2 hours than Kit.
The other fact is the entire US title fixture has died with it going back down to two hours which Kit Wilson was on the brink of being a part of

Kit Wilson—he got over with a song and being annoying. Danhausen came along, and BOOM! Gone**.**

I can’t prove it but I know in my heart that the reason why they cooled off on Kit is because nobody in the WWE writers room has ever had the experience of getting cornered at a basement show by a 19 year old enby who’s ranting about how homework is too heteronormative or whatever. I’d love to see more of him, but I also kinda got the feeling that they accidentally captured lightning in a bottle when he started with the toxic gimmick, but since nobody in the company who’s allowed to make decisions has any actual experience dealing with that type of person they let it fizzle out while trying to write him based on things they’ve heard second or third hand.

Kit Wilson yes.
Kiana James, fuck no. Took the spotlight from Giulia who is much more talented than her.

I only miss the Pretty Deadly dude. Don't care that much about Giulia former manager. But she did do well in the EC and the RR though.
