The NXT Thread Is Like Ring of Honor's Bay-Bay!

In the real world, I am a teacher. One of the big questions in teaching right now is why children go from being super creative in primary school to being the total opposite in secondary school. The answer is obvious - the restraints and restrictions placed on the older kids is far more, which ultimately leads to a much less satisfying outcome.

The difference between NXT and WWE is the exact same. Everything about NXT is good. I watch it for an hour every now and then, and I know who the guys are and what their story is, without having it repeated 7 billion times. If you allowed the main roster, with all their experience, to work in the same way, the outputted programme would be a million times better.

On a specific note, the WWE are trying to drag their audience into the 21st century by making it impossible not to be entertained by the women, who have a character beyond 'massive tits and smiles'.

That last thing is a plus. Steph McMahon in particular has been a winner for me this year, but it only really becomes a thing once it applies to more women than Vince's daughter. So far I feel like AJ and Paige are doing good too in the personality department, and the Bellas.

It says a lot that I'm always interested in an NXT debut rather than a Raw debut these days, because the Raw one isn't really their debut. It is however, interesting to see the difference in reaction once they're out in front of the crowd.
 
On a completely unrelated note, when the fuck is Sami getting the call-up, huh?

I'm willing to be patient and wait until the writers find a suitable spot for him, rather than launch him hastily and demoting him soon after when the crowds cease to show any interest. I'd be mad if they fuck it up with him lol
 
He's obviously the real deal. He won't move up until there's a good time and place - you can move people like Adam Rose whenever, because they have a pretty low ceiling, but with someone like him you need to time it right. I wouldn't be surprised if he's down there until well into 2015.

I had almost this exact thought as I was walking up the road tonight, and I was going to type it out and even use Adam Rose an example, but now nobody will believe me.

Things really need to pick up around here soon. I can’t believe I’m saying that but it’s the absolute truth right now. The lack of anything to build towards is hurting things, as we’re just spinning in circles instead of actually setting up a show or a match. Last week Breeze implied that he was cashing in soon but I didn’t hear a date. Let’s get to it.

You know I don't think Breeze taking the belt is a bad option at all. Zayn doesn't need it as he'll hopefully be on the main roster soon and I'm not sure how well Breeze's gimmick will translate with the Miz practically doing a lesser variation of it already. Keep letting Tyler be awesome in NXT till Miz leaves to go do Marine 5 or whatever.
 
Zayn isnt going up anytime soon, i dont even think neville is going up anytime soon. In terms of gimmick Breeze could go up and feud with the miz, make breeze a face for it and then have him turn heel straight away after. Thats if you wanna rush it.

I dont feel NXT gimmicks are really going to work when called up. Look at Rose and Bo their both on the way back down IMO. The three most successful stars are reigns, ambrose and reigns and they dont really have gimmicks

I wouldn't say Bo is "on his way back down", they just fed him a gimmick loss to further his storyline. R Truth got a Jobber's Victory on that one.
 
I'd rather guys like Zayn, Neville, Breeze, etc. stay in NXT for awhile longer, where they can actually stand out, rather than having them called up to the main roster only to be lost in the shuffle.

BTW so happy to hear that the crowd hates BlowJo Rawley as much as I do, Rawley is literally one of the few guys in NXT that I actually cringe when ever I see his stupid face on my TV, the dude just flat out blows.

The crowd totally failing to react to Mojo "hyping up" during his entrance put a smile on my face, I have to admit.

Edit:

And speaking of the tag match:

The rolling senton into second rope senton is a tremendous tag team finish. Dagger's talking out his arse when it comes to The Vaudevillains.

Edit2: A Total Divas ad being inserted into the middle of Bayley/Sasha Banks. A shit sandwich.

Edit3: That is to say Bayley and Sasha are the delicious bread and Total Divas is a steaming pile of shit. Hell of a match.
 
Buddy Murphy and Wesley Blake: like the look, like the dubstep theme, pity they're doomed to fail.

Edit: But I just became a believer in the luchas.

Edit2: Holy fuck at that main event. That tornado DDT. Christ almighty.
 
NXT is piled up with tag teams now, it's odd to see how they went from 1 to many so fast:

Legionnaires
Mechanics
Buddy and Wesley
Enzo & Cass
Vaudevillians
Kalisto/Cara
Jordan/Dillinger
Ascension
