Mike Kanellis feels that the fans are wrong.
Debuting at the 'Money In The Bank' PPV last summer former TNA X Division Champion Mike Kanellis came into the WWE with a nice amount of anticipatory steam. As the months went on Kanellis would begin to dissipate from WWE television. As his run in WWE continued he would work house show matches and dark matches before SmackDown Live but was rarely featured on the actual show. Prior to the 'Greatest Royal Rumble' event and the 'Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal' at WrestleMania 34, the last time that Kanellis was featured on live WWE programming was in October of 2017 in a singles match against Bobby Roode.
Kanellis was drafted to RAW as a part of the 2018 WWE 'Superstar Shake-Up' and has been working the 'Main Event' tapings since his arrival onto the brand. In the 'Greatest Royal Rumble' match that took place this past Friday Kanellis was eliminated almost immediately as soon as he stepped between the ropes. Fans critiqued the booking of Mike Kanellis on social media claiming that he has been misused since his arrival onto the scene last summer. The former ROH World Tag Team Champion feels otherwise as he explained via Twitter:
Titus O'Neil then stepped in to provide some words to Mike Kanellis.
