JLJM Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 A few things are clear: 1. NXT faithful are a different kind than the so called "main roster" fans. 2. Some NXT gimmicks won't cut it on Raw/Smackdown. 3. Repackaging of NXT talent has been poorly done where at all. E.g. Bo Dallas could have come across as a decent motivational character if done more seriously. It may have been a success where the New Day initially failed. 4. Some NXT talent would have benefited from no gimmick change. E.g. The Ascension were straight up ass kickers in NXT and nothing more. The wannabe legends thing was tragic from the moment it began. Tyler Breeze is very talentedon all counts, with an appropriate gimmick and I am mystified as to why he has dropped off the radar. Agree with a previous post though; he should not be in to anyone but himself - Summer Rae should not be part of it. In fact Tyler should have a different supermodel ever week and keep brushing them aside believing he is more worthy of the camera. Bottom line is that NXT has some worthwhile talent and they need to nurture it for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightning116 Posted March 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 I truly feel there is a big disconnection between the people that write for NXT and who write for Vince McMahon. Oh wait, sorry, the people who write for Raw and SmackDown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wait, sorry, the people who write for Raw and SmackDown. I think u just answered your own question. Key word being Vince McMahon. NXT don't have to go through Vince while the main shows do.

tonshaad1230 Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 He's not wrong. I seem to remember everyone here telling me over and over what huge stars Neville and Tyler Breeze would be when they reached the main roster. I haven't been keeping up with the weekly programs, but I've yet to see either one in anything more than a filler PPV match.Wrestlers can't book themselves, ya know? You're right they can't book themselves, however, that doesn't stop them from making a name for themselves regardless of what they are given or what spot they're placed in.

You're right they can't book themselves, however, that doesn't stop them from making a name for themselves regardless of what they are given or what spot they're placed in. They can't truly make a name for themselves if they aren't going to get backed for their efforts. And yeah... the spot they're put in kinda does matter. There have been instances when officials have turned a blind eye to talents regardless of how consistently good in the ring and over among the fans they've been, just because they don't fit their mould of what a "star" should be like. It isn't as direct as "perform well and you'll get noticed", it never *censored*ing has been in WWE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OPC Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Wrestlers have gotten punished for making a name for themselves. Look at Cesaro. Has done everything asked by the company and he got over. Then they took what got him over away from him. There's seriously no logical explanation to be defending this company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
