I watch NXT for...
For those of you who watch NXT now thats it's pretty much another brand, what are some of your reasons to watch? I've heard good things about the Ascension, Bray Wyatt, who else is worth checking out?

Somewhat out of habit now when I manage to get around to watching an episode and NXT's style being different than RAW or Smackdown.
It has enough uniqueness to stand out a bit and since it deals mostly in rookie-level wrestlers, a great way to see the development of certain wrestlers into future stars like Wade Barrett from season 1. |

I see what he's saying, he's that bland babyface with a famous relative. Honestly had the same comparison in my head when i saw him.

I like it. It's old school good guy. Kinda the same reason I liked Ted DiBiase when he started the DiBiase posse.

Back when Rocky was doing it, it was right at that point where the old school smiley babyface was starting to become tiresome. Now we're at a point where that kind of face has been a dying breed for so long in favor of the Austin-esque badass face that I think there's room for someone now like Steamboat to harken back to his dad's days of good guy/bad guy. It's more of a breath of fresh air than another Austin, Punk, Orton, HHH type.

Yeah but Richie Steamboat is already 25. Definitely past his prime. Definitely not gonna get any better.

my in depth breakdowns of every episode are a good start, if you want to read how much I love Bray Wyatt and hate his stupid brother that is.

I love the team of Regal, Saxton and JR. Saxton seems to be amazingly well informed about the wrestlers even more so that the normal WWE PBP guys.
Can't pin it down to one person or reason why I watch. It's just an amazing concept. |

It's the new school mixed with some undercard guys to give them time to "perfect their craft" as they say.
Plus it's actual fucking wrestling without bs commentary about random other things besides what's going on in the ring. |

Basically the old ROH guys, Richie Steamboat and (can't believe more people haven't mentioned him) Bray Wyatt.
I hate Leo Kruger, The Ascension and Bo Dallas with a fire normally reserved for Drew McIntyre |

He's pretty solid in the ring from what I've seen and is at least more comfortable on the mic than a lot of guys in WWE. But his character/gimmick only allows him to speak in Punjabi or just say anti-American stuff, which has been done to death and is not going to get him over as a heel in 2012. I don't get why WWE thinks that Mahal speaking in Punjabi will get him heel heat. If nobody understands what he's saying, they're not going to care about what he's talking about. He's got the size, the look, good in-ring skills that can be improved, and good mic skills. Plus he's Indian and they're going to need a replacement for Khali to tap into the South Asian markets. |
