Sound like a bunch of kids jealous and envious. :sas1:
I'd be jealous and envious too. The NXT backstage folk actually look like they give a fukk about talent. :heh:



:usure:

Everyone knows that both ships are being run differently. As much more money as you make on the main roster, it has to suck knowing that the people below you are allowed to work at a better level than you as someone on the A+ show. Their characters and back stories are being nurtured. They get promo time. Every match doesn't end in a rollup pin. Aside from the paycheck, there's a lot to envy imo.

I don't buy that unless it's coming from the 30 or so guys that just are never used

But the top guys are not trying to go out and have 30 min matches every night

I'm sure even with those complaints, midcarders and divas would still prefer getting paid and traveling the world compared to only staying in Florida.

Saw this mentioned on another board, but with every indie darling sign on and the more acclaim NXT receives, it's becoming evident that the WWE is becoming more "pro wrestling" than "sports entertainment."
You're going to always need your larger than life personalities but everything goes in cycles, and currently I believe fans and talent are ready for that evolution of the brand as a whole.
Vince is simply stubborn and will likely resist any change to the product until his dying breath, so in the meantime, we'll continue chopping promo and match length to make time for midgets and Flo'rida.
If NXT is any indicator, I believe that's the direction HHH is looking to taking the company to -
but I still don't have much faith because Stephanie will still be there, and she's supposedly responsible for some of the silliest "sports entertainment" ideas out there.
