Clearly this is leading to them changing 205 Live into something else. Which was quite obvious for some time now.

That's a odd list of names considering Lee just recently had a heart condition. Priest is getting a US title shot at SS. Dijak and Dio albeit the horrendous gimmick have won two straight on Raw the past couple of weeks. KKKross has been a focal point and has recouped his victories after the debut. Dream, yeah not the right person to include considering all the fukkery lingering him and Kona Reeves, really? :heh:

I understand Bronson Reed at least but not the names you listed.

Bronson reed is the same height as Johnny gargano.. a midget

And im just speaking on Vince's height fetish... Triple H had taller wrestlers taking over NXT at a time and Vince clipped them all and used them horribly on the "main" roster.

My point is HHH was building the type of shyt Vince liked anyway and phasing out the vanilla midgets anyway before Vince jumped in

Imagine an actual Kross/Lee feud and not a squash with no return match then showing up in a dress.

And we would've gotten the DD/Lee feud off GP. Keith Lee made Adam Cole look like a baby and Kross murdered 4 midgets in a 5 way match... H was doing Vince better than Vince

And Damien priest was on his way up to main event on nxt.

Haitch played the game one too many times and finally lost :ohhh:

Dave Meltzer’s reporting that Paul “Triple H” Levesque is internally being blamed for NXT not “winning the Wednesday night wars which WWE thought they would win easily.” Further, there are players backstage who’ve been worried they would lose power if Vince McMahon’s son-in-law took over the company. Now they’re using AEW’s success to bad mouth NXT, and by extension Triple H: “NXT is being cast as a product full of independent workers who can’t draw which is unable to attract a younger audience.”

The wrestlers Haitch signed to execute his vision are “pawns in the power struggle.” The releases are the obvious casualties, but Meltzer also says the backstage drama is why Karrion Kross lost twice on Raw while being presented as an unbeatable champion on NXT. Dakota Kai, the current #1 contender for the NXT Women’s title, losing to Aaliyah on last week’s Main Event was also cited as evidence of the politics being played.

NXT changes reportedly come after Triple H is blamed for losing to AEW

I find the Kota/Aaliyah complaint disingenuous because having Kota win would defeat the purpose of moving Aaliyah up to main roster in the first place not to mention the fact that she was just on NXT herself.

I can totally believe that report though as everyone is cover their own behind by throwing HHH under the bus since they don’t have the job security that he does.

You can't say he's used Lee poorly though. Again he just came back from having a heart condition and he's not in ring shape.

Before all that he had nothing but competitive matches and was on the verge of winning the US belt from Sheamus.

Now that's what they are doing with Priest whose looked good recently.

The KKKross shyt is weird but it's obvious what they are doing with him the moment Scarlett didn't debut with him. The Hardy Covid situation threw everything off.

These big guys aren't being used poorly more so just getting rebuilt again from the ground up in order to introduce them to the mainstream audience.

Gotta remember NXT is a more niche audience.

To be fair we have to take the shyt Meltzer says with a grain of salt at this point.
It's bad enough when random fans pick sides instead of just watching both or watching the one you want to watch but it's even worse when Big Dave does it after 40+ years in the game. :dahell:
