History Wrestling / Fandango

* PrettyBoy: UpToEleven as Fandango.

* SayMyName: {{It Is Pronounced| TroPAY}} "Faaaaaaaahn-DAAAAAAAAAHHHHHN-goooooohhhhh..." And you'd better say it correctly, too.

Curtis Jonathan Hussey (born July 22, 1981) is an American [[ProfessionalWrestling professional wrestler]]. He wrestles for WWE under the ring name Fandango which stands for [[FunWithAcronyms "Fantastic," "Amazing," "Nimble," "Dashing," "Attractive," "Noteworthy," "Gifted" and "Original".]] He was formerly known as Johnny Curtis.

* {{Tweener}}: Immediately following his Wrestlemania debut he was very over and got baby face like pops, despite still antagonizing the crowd and generally not changing his demeanor at all.

!!!"TRO-PE-S!":

** Breezango w[=/=] Wrestling/TylerBreeze

** {{Jerkass}}: Broke up with Summer - over '''{{Twitter}}'''. Worse, his tweet said that his first attempt was a freaking ''text''. [[note]]Summer needed time off to film the next installment of ''Film/TheMarine'' film series.[[/note]]

* {{Jobber}}: Basically a go to jobber during Wrestling/{{TNA}}'s formative years, and not in the make someone look good kind of way but as a time filling kind of way, as most of time he wrestled in dark matches.

* SmallNameBigEgo: Endlessly hyped before his debut and has an elaborate entrance setup (glittering curtains and a flaming cutout of his silhouette), for a start

* {{Tweener}}: Immediately following his Wrestlemania debut he was very over and got baby face like pops, despite still antagonizing the crowd and general not changing his demeanor at all.

** ''He can't dance''. All he ever does is spread his arms wide and shimmy his hips. The positive response from the fans is proportional to ridiculousness of his delusion.

In 2006, Hussey signed a development contract with World Wrestling Entertainment, and was assigned to Deep South Wrestling (DSW), WWE's developmental territory. He was then moved to Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) in June 2008, where he won the [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/us/fl/fcw/fcw-fl-t.html Florida Tag Team Championship]] on more than one occasion with Tyler Reks and Derrick Bateman.

* AbortedArc: He was the winner of NXT season 4 and was guarantied a Tag Team title shot with his mentor [[Wrestling/RonKillings R-Truth.]] But with [[Wrestling/RonKillings R-Truth]]'s [[FaceHeelTurn heel turn]] that was dropped. This arc was eventually resolved on an episode of ''Wrestling/{{WWE NXT}}'' ''almost 21 months later''. However, the mentor part of the title shot was {{retcon}}ned with Curtis choosing Michael [=McGillicutty=] as his partner.

* AscendedMeme: ♪ DA DUH DA DUH DA DUH DUH DUH DA ♫
* AudienceParticipationSong: His WORDLESS theme became one on the 4/8 post-''Wrestling/{{WrestleMania}} 29'' edition on Raw. It has yet to be seen if it has [[Wrestling/BryanDanielson YES-level]] staying power.

* BullyingADragon: On the July 26, 2013 edition of ''SmackDown!'', he interrupted Wrestling/CMPunk, who is not only a five-time world champion, but is also the guy who had the balls to run off with the company's most important title one hour before his contract expired and picked a fight with '''''Wrestling/BrockLesnar''''' the night after a [=MiTB=] ladder match where he got busted open and had to get thirteen staples in his head. Wrestling/MichaelCole even pointed out that it wasn't the best time to interrupt Punk when he's been in a bad mood for the last two weeks and doesn't take interruptions well (even when he's in a ''good'' mood), especially when he's still talking about something important. Fandango promptly got a mic to the head and a GTS for his troubles.

* EnemyMine[=/=]VillainTeamUp: With Maxine on ''Wrestling/{{WWE NXT}}''. Which worked remarkably well.

** He CAN'T DANCE. All he ever does is spread his arms wide and shimmy his hips. The positive response from the fans is proportional to ridiculousness of his delusion.

** Michael Cole, of all people, has starting to call them out on this, saying "He doesn't do anything!" any time he "dances." Of course, it's treated as a CassandraTruth while everybody else still gushes over his ability.

* YouHaveFailedMe: Summer Rae has, apparently. Fandango has taken on Wrestling/{{Lay|cool}}la as his new manager (and new girlfriend).

* YouLookFamiliar: Was formerly known as Johnny Curtis on ''Wrestling/{{WWE NXT}}''
