The one thing I feel lacking with most of these NXT rasslers is that even though they all sound good, clear, and confident on the mic, they don't exude much charisma or electricity, establish much identity, or leave any lasting impression. Talented talkers but little charm. I don't wanna say boring but not captivating either. Some exceptions would be obviously Enzo & Cass, American Alpha, a couple of the females, and maybe Sami Zayn who sounds like a genuine good guy.

At this point unless something big is announced for RAW, NXT is the only show to look forward to. I agree that they fit tons of shyt in just one hour, to the point where it felt longer than an hour. They don't even fit that much actual good content through three hours of RAW. :snoop:

Just ordered the Apollo Crews tee for me and the Bayley champ shirt for my girl. NXT show in two weeks! :blessed:

I feel the same way. Like I pretty much got it on in the background these days because although there's a lot of talent on the roster, there's only a couple guys who really stand out.

Marcus Louis? He's still signed, but they don't use him that much. A real shame, you give that guy a Paul Bearer-like manager and his gimmick would be pure fukkery gold.

When they get in the ring a lot of them do stand out. The wrestling and ring psychology are superb. But when they get that stick its like they're complacent with just being generic baddie or generic goodie. Finn Balor and Crews God, as amazing as they are in pretty much every other department, are snoozers on the mic. The Mechanics, Blake & Murphy, Dana Brooke, are not menacing or intriguing at all.

Marcus Louis...after he got his head shaved in that segment with Enzo & Cass he's been on NXT what seems like 3 times since...and they never built on his "becoming a monster" story...he just was so embarrassed to be bald that it drove him crazy :mjlol:

his partner Sylvester Lefort hasnt been on tv either since then...He seems like he'd be a decent manager...i saw him partnered with one of the NXT divas at their live shows.
