What are the current plans for WWE NXT since they converted it to their developmental system and now incorporate TV tapings once a month at Full Sail University? Is there some way to catch this on TV now or do they have plans to relaunch this on the WWE Network or shop for a network demopgraphic that would be willing to carry it. I just know they discontinued showing it on WWE.com weeks ago and I haven't seen it since.

It still plays on TV internationally, and the episodes can be found online (not by WWE.com).

They are supposedly "working" on getting it playing in the USofA again. Whether they will start from the beginning of the show, or just pick up from the current episode, who knows.

would be nice if they picked up a deal like to play it on hulu or partnered up with youtube for it or something because i need my Seth Rollins fix. Added bonus is William Regal and Good Ol' JR doing commentary. Now that's a SLOBBAKNOCKA!!!

Regal is pretty shit on commentary, but Ross still has it.

I don't agree with your accessment of Lord Steven's commentary skills, Gertner. I think Regal is the goods, and that's not just some IWC cocksucking extravaganza bandwagoning on my part. He's fairly consistent, knows what he's talking about, and can skirt that line of being in character without being overboard, full heel mode.

Also, he puts the talent over that are in the ring. Seems to be a dying art.

He doesn't play well off anybody. He stumbles his words constantly and just paints himself into a corner with these stories that draw awkward silences.

Regal is fine on commentary, but he is just too quiet and soft-spoken. I feel like Matt Striker does the same kind of job (actually putting over the wrestling and wrestlers) only better and louder.

Regal is fine where he is. It works for NXT. It just wouldn't work at all on Raw or Smackdown.

Him and Byron Saxton definitely do not work well together.
