Question

Why did gregory helms stop being the hurricane?

Answer 1

because the wwe is starting to become kind of dumb now

i mean look no more RVD,Goldust, Sabu, Sandman, others.

sure their contract expired but they could have renewed it.

Answer 2

I think the gimmick was discontinued right around, or after Hurricane Katrina.  Same as the song "Let the bodies hit the floor" being discontinued right around 9/11.

Answer 3

cause the whole idea of a superhero was idiotic to him. i mean this guy (the character) thought he could fly. I think it was too humiliating for him.

Answer 4

ask the wwe writers

Answer 5

To quote JBL in SVD 08, "Who needs a bunch of 8 year olds screaming your name when you can have some championship gold around your waist?"

Answer 6

he wanted to move on i guess. personally, i liked sugar shane helms and hurricane better than his current gimmick, but thats just me

Answer 7

I guess he figured it was time for a change.

Answer 8

Well, i think his contract expired and he probably was getting sick of "the hurricane".
