shyt was a solid 7.5, and the brand is in a death spiral.

V.Teen Dream proved that they should never have another Tough Enough competition ever again as they are beyond useless.

:sadcam:

Push ROH rejects, Brehs. :francis:


Adam Cole is a Dollar Tree Dolph Zigla
:gladbron:

Fish & O'Riley Auto Parts would be fodder on 205 Live
:bryan:

Women showed out, but hella late on Embar Moonface getting the scraps from Asuka's chin:ooh:

The whole double ring shyt was lame AF and there to get folks hyped off a PG ECW hardcore safety net match:flabbynsick:

Cien Almas with the strap is refreshing/deserving but stale once they setup the Cole match for Mania:ohlawd:

Trips is holding onto dear life to this dying brand, finna break the bank to try to get the Young Bucks/Richochet next year to fill the American Alpha/Neville roles:ld:

UK belt needs to be on the show, otherwise, I give it another year before it starts to get deeper into the WCW bushes

Alright, I've watched the entire show. As a whole, it was pretty entertaining but there's a huge glaring problem to me. Besides maybe Almas, I can't see anyone from NXT making a huge splash on the main roster within the next six months. All of these gimmicks & characters seem bush league to me. NXT is trying way too hard to cater to the Indy's rather than building for the WWE main roster.

I think the developmental thread might drop this week since I'll have some free time :ehh:

Think they intended to have Almas win because they want Cole to win at the JAN PPV. Cole vs Drew would look stupid and make Cole look like a midget.

Galloway didn't need a lengthy stint in NXT anyways. I guess the injury is a blessing in disguise and he'll be pushed the main roster once he's healed.

That's the point though. Get the Indy crowd behind a character and once he hits the main show, fairweather fans will eat that shut and you'll still have the core fan base behind them. Worked for Owen's and Zayn. Not everyone pans out though.

I think Cole will transition easy because he already had a huge following. Same with Drew and Almas. The rest are trash.
