WWE:NXT Discussion Thread

This is huge for NXT! A university and its hopefully enthusiastic crowd may be just what it needed to establish itself as a 3rd brand. Triple H's support is not something to laugh at either. What are your thoughts? Quote:

Considering its been the best hour of wrestling on TV (again, since most of Season 1 was), this could be quite awesome.

I don't watch NXT, mostly because it's on a channel I don't get but this news, like Noid, makes me very intrigued. I'll be checking it out.
I honestly think that only good things can come from this. |

Haven't watched any of these guys since their original NXT runs... and they were all pretty awful. I'll check out a recent episode to see how much they have grown.

Ya just saw that. I am hoping they introduce a new roster as well, or at least new roster members. Can't wait to see this in action.

Is it still a reality competition or just a regular show now? I haven't payed any attention since season 2.

Regular show but a very decent one.

Glad that the commentary team seems like it's going to be Jim Ross and William Regal. Although he is new, Regal is already a pretty great commentator that will blend/clash well with JR. I see them quickly becoming my favourite duo in the entire WWE.

Regal is kindof goofy with his announcing. Hopefully they can get back on track and give NXT some respect announce wise.
Shitting on the show constantly got pretty old fast. |

As a graduate from Full Sail University, I have to say that this is an amazing move for both parties. I would give anything to go back and be in school while WWE NXT was being produced on campus - probably would've tried to nudge my way onto the production team somehow.

Is Full Sail known for being a party campus?
I'd like to remind you all that Vince complained when WCW went to places like Fort Lauderdale and other party college campuses during the Monday Night Wars. |

Should be interesting to see what visual changes get done to NXT and eventually the rest of the WWE's shows since Full Sail's equipment is used a lot in Hollywood and with ESPN.

This week's episode will still be taped tonight (already done I think). I guess they will announce something at the tapings tonight about the move.

Holy fuck, I cannot wait. Best commentary team and GM in the business and a bunch of people I've never heard of as well as some good main events.
I'm assuming those spoilers are just the matches or the backstage stuff wasnt shown to the crowd though, otherwise the GM role is a little pointless. |

I wasn't sure if this was actually gonna be televised or shown on WWE.com or whatever, but the fact that they turned Bo Rotundo into Bo Dallas pretty much confirms that it is. Can't use their real name, after all.
Also interesting that they withheld Dean Ambrose. Guessing they're still being saved for one of the main shows. Last edited by Evil Vito; 05-18-2012 at 07:39 AM. |

Bray Wyatt wrestled on the 4th show.
Also, they're going to run into the ROH problem. Mainly that taping so many shows at once is going to burn out the crowd. |

Not as if the current format is delivering any kind of crowd reaction. Just watching this week's show, virtually no reaction to anything.

Yeah, I always kinda chuckle when Matt Striker casually tries to explain what's been going on on the show to the crowd at the beginning of the episode because no one knows.

They might get away with it. Drunk college people and all, but we probably won't know for sure for 4 weeks.
Actually pumped for it. |
