Brehs....let’s be honest NXT hasn’t been good in a LONG time

[MenacingMonk]

Takeovers used to be a never miss for me. I haven’t really cared since like 2018/2019.

 

[jackswstd]

Haven’t watched consistently since Andrade was NXT champ. It was better as a one hour show IMO.

 

[NoMorePie]

I here ya. The pandemic kinda fufked it up. Talent randomly miss shows.

Also, gargano and ciampa apparently refuse to be called up so like... they're going to be times where they get lost in the shuffle.

They should've left kevin owens and aleister black return to nxt. Get some star power back

 

[Max.]

They have top talent leave and cant replace them at the same rate
example: People that moved to raw n SD
Keith kee,riddle,street P, dijak, bianca,bazler...kross is about to be called

They get replaced by people that need to be built or indy guy not recognized by a regular fan

*The Gargano stable sucks

*Long women matches

*The Dusty Classic isn’t that good this year

*Io Sharai being booked like Brock Lesnar

*Having talented cats on nonstop losing streaks (Rhea, Swerve, Timothy Thatcher)

*The recent trend of making bitter enemies who tried to kill each other one week, become a tag team tha next.

The only things that are still good on this show are

Undisputed Era, Pete Dunne, Leon Ruff getting a push, Karrion Kross, and Ciampa

Disagree

Two things everyone always said and knew would impact NXT negatively:

Extending to 2 hours

Becoming a main brand and not development where the main purpose is to get people reps for main roster TV time


Both those things happen and it becomes a grittier Raw/SD

 

[Brad Piff]

Hasn’t been good for a long time but yet aew can only beat em by a couple hundred thousand every week

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

It wasn’t the brand. It was the talent coming through. All of the Indy greats have come through and made the main roster

 

[Rayzah]

Takeovers used to be must watch....guaranteed piff everytime.

Haven't watched one in months now

The whole promotion has been built around Undisputed Era and Gargano for years now because they know they can't move them midgets to the main roster as Cokeboy will do nothing with them.

shyt is stale as fukk

It’s not development anymore but it’s also not a true 3rd brand, so they have no identity. There is no real reason to watch anymore

90% of the call ups have no plan upon arriving on raw (because no one ever goes to smack down). They get called up and have their music change (Kieth Lee) or fukk up their name (Matt Riddle) or get completely left off TV (like that one chick chelsey green )
There is no reason to get excited about gargano or ciampa or cole cause we all know they will just be a tag team at best at worst Alister Black, Andrade or his Mexican friends.

They are not a 3rd brand because they had no involvement in survivor series and is only included in the ruble cause the women need enough people to make 30 and any guys are only there after being “called up”. Other than that they aren’t mentioned or acknowledged as a legit brand. They love sending stars across raw and smack down for no reason like AJ a few weeks ago but no one ever goes to nxt and nxt never appears on the other shows

wwe made nxt feel irrelevant
