Most wrestlers will get some kind of undefeated streak when they just debut or get repackaged with a new gimmick. Even if they are just running through opponents and there is no real development for them, which would suggest they will soon be lost in the shuffle, they at least get that. Tyler Breeze has not gotten even that. I felt this guy would end up like Fandango, but he has hit mediocrity even faster than I expected.
Breeze has beaten a few jobbers. He got a win against Dolph Ziggler. But he has pretty much lost that feud and has lost to a few guys you would not expect someone that just debuted to lose to. He now finds himself in a feud against Goldust. This just feels like a lower-midcard feud. Goldust spent most of the year out with an injury. He came back a few weeks ago. But he's really not someone that needs to win feuds at this stage of his career. This is a feud for Tyler Breeze to win. This feud feels like what you had between R-Truth and King Barrett. You have a veteran face with a goofy gimmick that does not get pushed often feuding against a heel to put him over in the end. Neither guy is going anywhere far, but it has some entertainment value.
I do not feel as bad for Tyler Breeze as much as I do for Summer Rae. She has just bounced from one periphery angle to another her entire career on the main roster. Her angle with Rusev was her first real shot at something good. That got ruined. It transitioned to another angle, but that angle is just really weak right now. Eye-candy divas do serve a purpose. She is still being utilized as part of a storyline and getting to work with someone with a gimmick, which helps, but this situation could be better.
Goldust has a history of interesting angles with women. How interesting should this feud get? It could simply lead to Tyler Breeze going over Goldust and nothing more. Or should the WWE have Summer Rae end up with Goldust? No need for that. As I said before, Goldust doesn't need to win feuds at this stage of his career. His career won't go much further. But the WWE might still manage more interesting encounters between Goldust and Summer Rae, not to mention Breeze.
