Right so I've only watched the last two episodes of NXT.
My thoughts after watching with 'Fresh Eyes'
The Good
- Kane/Kofi - Big star appearances can only be a good thing.
- Fans pop on hearing that Tyler Breeze has arrived in the building...WWE don't do this anymore but it made him seem like a 'Big Deal'. He was good in the ring and worked his gimmick really well...top marks. Loved him calling Adrian Neville so he didn't have to look at him.
- They havn't removed the guys who have moved to the main roster from the opening titles..Shows that these guys are on the verge of 'making it'
- Emma looks awesome...I always go for a piss when Diva segments come on...it's like a personal tradition...I didn't during Emma's match with Natalya that says alot to me....Bailey also looks pretty good...Summer Rae should never be allowed to lace up boots again...she's more suited to being a valet.
- Rusev looks like an absolute beast. Regal made a comment that managing him would just be a case of pointing and saying 'destroy'....Thats how he should be booked..Never.speak..Just maul and destroy at the behest of a really good voice guy,
- Sami Zayn - He's a cool gimmick away from being ready, His ringwork was really crisp and he's got that something a great underdog should have. I'd give him a spot in The Rumble... Three Way next week between Zayn, Breeze and English for the spot would be great.
- The Acension - Cool look, Good in the ring. Every ingredient there...Probably get called up soon. Proper team and loved that the tag titles were the main event this week.
The Bad
- The 'Sing - Off' was dreadful....made both guys look awful.
- Rusevs Valet was just annoying...Didnt get 'heat' from me...I just wanted her off the mic and indeed the screen.
- Aiden English's Gimmick is awful...Its like Cena's 'rapper' but irrelevant in its time. He's decent in the ring though.
- Colin Cassady looks really 'gangly' He'd benefit from getting into some pants like most other workers with that body type do... Nash/Test etc
- Xavier running straight at Rusev at the start of the match..Sure it makes him look like he's full of 'heart' but NOBODY should approach Rusev without caution.
I'll be watching in future though..I was overall very impressed.
