Lifes not that bad, but I'm gonna bitch about it anyways....
In a recent interview with Mark Caponi a.k.a. Muhammad Hassan, seems like Hassan won't be coming back. He also mentioned in his interview with wwe.com, that he had nothing respect for the McMahons and his experience with wwe was very positive. I'm not a huge Hassan fan, but I will admit he knew how to work a crowd which made him "over" as a "heel" in merely weeks and he had talent. I personally didn't have a problem with the masked henchmen attacking The Undertaker bit, hell it was brilliant. But do to the timing of the it, I would understand how it was controversial.

To bad, seems like WWE can't keep talent these days.

He had workrate potential, and I certainly agree that he was prime heel material. But maybe too much so. His characterization was preying on the worst in the stereotypical wrasslin' fan; the chants of "USA" were actually a bit sickening to me. He was an Arab-AMERICAN, not a foreigner. Too much of what he said in his complaints of discrimination rang true, to me, bolstered by the fact that he never did seem to get a real honest chance (although that was as much through his own machinations as anything else).
Once the angle "jumped the jihad", they had to let him go. You can't let a wrestler get *that* heel, or there's no bringing him back.

Well, he was born in Jordan, but raised in New York. When I first saw him, the first thing I thought was, "This guy's not an Arab-American, he's looks like he's Italian..."
