For the record I, for one am looking forward to seeing the direction they take with Tensai after last week. Looks like he's ditching all 'Japense' aspects of his character.

  If he really wants to ditch all the Japanese aspects of the character, he should ditch the Tensai moniker. Or at least make up some story about the name being given to him in Japan or something.

WWE has done a name change on air before (Nitro/John Morrison), so for Albert to ditch the Tensai moniker and become Albert again wouldn't surprise me at all. The Tensai gimmick isn't working like creative thought it would, so they might as well ditch it. Take him back to being Albert. He comes out one night on Raw or Smackdown, gets in the ring with a mic, and explains that in Japan he wrestled under many names, Tensai being one of them. He's sick and tired of creative not listening to him, so against their wishes, he's ditching Tensai and going back to being Albert. Or he could even use his real name. Whatever works.
