Kirchner was reportedly announced dead on October 15, 2006 by a former employer World Wrestling Entertainment (formerly known as the World Wrestling Federation). On October 21, it was announced that he was still alive.[1] This came as a result of confusion over Kirchner's actual name, which was believed to be Thomas Spear at the time. There, in fact, was a Thomas Spear who died in White Marsh, Maryland, but he is completely unconnected to Kirchner.[1]

Kirchner's mother heard about the WWE's announcement of her son's death and immediately called her son to inform him. Kirchner and his mom then contacted the WWE to tell that Kirchner was still alive and in good health, leading to the WWE's announcement on October 21. Kirchner, who was working as a truck driver at the time, later remarked that he was honored and surprised that people still remembered him 20 years after his brief rise to fame in WWF/E.

Kirchner himself would die on December 22, 2021.
 
They really don't need Roddy either since it started out as just those 3. He was a cool addition to the group but they were killing shit for like a year before he even joined
 
he should have never been the champ period..... i think that Vince embraced the idea of having 2 black world champs back to back..... it probably will never happen again.

i don’t think that factored into his decision making
interest in wwe’s product is dwindling so vince is throwing ish at the wall to see what can bring his audience back
 
Theres just no narrative to it. What has changed by Big E being champion? He won a briefcase, then beat a exhausted champion. And now he's the same act as before, but with a belt.

No heroes journey, no character arc, no new motivations revealed, no new dragons to slay.

And is that the fault of E...or RAW creative for not coming up wit all those things you mentioned?

His reign is ok. Imo an extended feud wit Lashley would've been good. But since you mention no new dragons to slay...who are the "dragons"?

Big E is gonna be Big E. When it's time to joke around...he does it. But when it's time to be serious...he's done that too.
 
Even in this current title match Big E is the least interesting, how are you the champ but you're the afterthought and it's been that way since he's won it
