    I wouldn't mind a WWE product that is untouched by Vince and just there, with their young talent, to put on a show...if it happens to be NXT, I'll watch if its good.

      NXT is glorified indy wrestling in front of 100 people. It's closer to FCW than Superstars.

      Superstars is filmed in large arenas in front of 15,000 people, and he would likely be on the road.

      What exactly is either party gaining at this point by keeping him in developmental?

          How is W2B hating on glorified indy wrestling with Jim Ross on commentary?

          /forgot how awesome Drew McIntyre's Intro was...

          Superstars is hardly taped in front of 15K...its usually taped before RAW and Smackdown...you don't have everyone in the arena yet...

            McIntyre sucks the life out of anything he's involved in. It's amazing.

              I'm not hating on anything. Empire said NXT was the same as Superstars, which it clearly isn't.

                Thats my issue, Either give them a chance or don't even hire them.

                  Here's the latest Superstars. It's a completely different level of production than NXT, which is really just pseudo developmental.

                  Superstars is pretty good, it's the only WWE show I watch regularly. Josh Matthews saying Antonio Cesaro was trained in "CHIKARA style" wrestling a few weeks back had me rolling. Plus, the most underrated guy on the roster, Hunico, tears it up on a weekly basis.

                  Anyway, the point I was trying to make is it's time to get Rollins in front of big crowds and put him on the road. It's been like 3 years ffs.

                    Ironically, the first match on Superstars is McIntyre sucking the life out of Sin Cara.

                        His father is Mike Rotunda or better known as I.R.S., He is also the younger brother of Husky Harris.

                          God damn, Alex Riley has fallen off hard...he's wrestling Claudio (is he still on Smackdown?) on NXT.

                                You can thank John Cena for that.
