This is the biggest reason why that I hope that NXT doesn't get put on Network TV again. They put him on TV as a raw rookie and gave him a craptactual gimmick with no chance to get over and not wearing a shirt didn't help matters.
NXT should be kept on Hulu Plus so just the people who really want to see it will see it. The general audience doesn't need to see these new rookies stumble and fall on their way to becoming a Superstar. If you believe the reports Syfy wants NXT again.
It didn't really bother me when they chanted "A-Train" for Tensai because that gimmick worked. There was no need to repackage somebody we already knew and was somewhat over. They didn't think we'd remember him and they were wrong. They now have him in a somewhat of his Hip-Hop Hippo days with Scotty Too Hotty which was the worst part of his career to that point. Sure the chants might not have helped him get over as Tensai, but the gimmick was stupid and the fans did us all a favor in sabotaging it.
We'll have to wait to see if the next crowd chants Husky Harris. If they do all don't blame the fans blame WWE who put young talent on national TV with no real direction of their characters or anything. Hopefully Curtis and Brayy can get a shower to get the stink of NXT off of them before it's too late for both of those potential money superstars.
