Scouting Developmental - aka the WWE NXT Thread

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Speaking of having my doubts about the Performance Center being able to make someone out of nothing without having to work the old fashioned way...

The WWE released Vader's kid.

He's green as hell...needs, without question, work on the Indy and international scene. Going to Japan would do wonders for Jesse White.

NXT 9/25

We open with a tag team turmoil match.

Enzo Amore + Big Cass v. Tyler Breeze + CJ Parker - Oh my, will the tag team of Parker and Breeze B ABLE 2 COEXIST!?! #SAWFT.

Enzo Amore + Big Cass v. Scott Dawson + Alexander Rusev - #SAWFT ... post match shenanigans where Rusev takes out Enzo and Big Cass.

Enzo Amore + Big Cass v. The Ascension - You know how this one ends.

Really pointless segment-and-a-half. The Ascension is your #1 Contender...you already know they are going to win the belts.

Bayley v. Sasha Banks - Fast Forward.

Aiden English demands the spotlight...and HE SIIIIIIINGS. He beats BULL DEMPSEY. There is some potential in former jobber Aiden English. And at the demand of the audience...HE GIVES US AN ENCORE.

Sami Zayn v. EL LOCAL - Zayn gets the biggest pop of anyone I've ever heard in NXT. I can't wait until the WWE crowds at RAW or a PPV start chanting "OLE"...will be awesome. This one is short and quick. Zayn wins with the Yakuza Kick to the corner.

Bo Dallas comes out. Don't stop Bo-lieving.

Kassius Ohno backstage promo...he's a D+ performer, don'tcha know.

Triple H promo. Sami Zayn out pops Triple H. Immediate burial coming. Dusty out as GM...JBL in. JBL heely promo.

They threw a whole lot of shit into 50 minutes. Watch at your own discretion. A lot of skippable shit here.

Aiden English needs to be on the main roster with that gimmick as soon as possible. It's gonna blow up like Damien Sandow did

[Warner2BruceTD]

Supposedly, NXT can be viewed with Hulu Basic now. So, free.

They rehired Shawn Spears for developmental last week

NXT isnt show on TV anywhere in the states? Its weekly here on Sportsnet 360, aka The Score. Surprised it shows here and not down south.

It was contractually obligated overseas...not sure if Canadia follows the same rules, but NXT was cancelled on SyFy a while back and while its a totally different entity now, it still hasn't been picked up outside of being streamed on Hulu for...maybe two-plus years now.

NXT 10/3

Fandango/Summer Rae v. Santino/Emma - Gross.

Kassius Ohno v. Luke Harper - Ohno is back, not wearing a one-piece body suit...thats always good. Ohno gets some offense in, but ultimately, a five minute win by Luke Harper. I guess this is the part where Kassius Ohno "learns to eat shit...plates and plates of shit."

Enzo Amore and Colin Cassaday are quite a good promo.

MoJo Rawley STAYS HYPED.

Corey Graves/Adrian Neville v. The Ascension - The outcome here is pretty obvious. Match wasn't bad...but I think they cut a shitload of it out.

Bo Dallas Invitational

v. Local Jobber - Yeah.
v. Leo Kruger and Antonio cesaro - Kruger and Cesaro beat each other up.
v. EL LOCALERICO - Sami Zayn wins. Unmasks himself...he gets a title shot.

Nothing to see here. I feel like they cut out so much from these matches in post production that really take away from them.

How'd the body look?
