Although WWE may have plans with Otis, there really seems to be no space for Tucker on Raw. Unless WWE plans a massive storyline for him, we could end up seeing him as a platform for developing Superstars.
Otis on the other hand has the Money in the Banks briefcase is in his hands. Since WWE planned earlier on making him lose it to The Miz in a legal case, the future does not look too promising for him either.
