I remember telling folks a while back that Titus O'Neil was becoming somebody that took a nonsensical heel turn and ran with it, but they were all LOL WUT Titus O'Neil sucks. Now I'm seeing some of those same people hitchin' a ride on the bandwagon. All I have to say to that is you're lucky there is still room and I didn't bring my kicking boots with me. "An appreciation thread for me?"  If I was one of those people, I sincerely apologize and will eat my hat. Titus is freakin awesome, I really think he could be a World Champ one day. Now shove over and let me on that wagon! WWE needs more guys like him, former football players with that natural swagger and explosiveness to go along with the size they like. JR would've signed the hell out of him. Now that you mention it, yeah, Titus really does feel like a JR signing more than an Ace one. Former football guy, big, thick athlete. |

Damn, he's 34 already?
Seeing how much he improved in 2 years, think of where he could be at 36? Only been wrestling for 3 years too, not too much mileage on him.

Hey, Batista was 36 when he became World Champion, and many of the guys of the past generation (Austin, Hart, Flair, etc) were in their 30's as well. You never know.

I kinda wish they would have been a tad less racist. Unless that's their gimmick, which could potentially be amazing. They are on a show where management has an Indian-Canadian guy wear a turban just so he can get booed and you think they were too racist? I don't really think "too racist" is an actual thing. Something either is or isn't. And yeah, all that interaction with Yoshi was missing were some flapping dickies and some "me so solly" jokes. |

Not having been watching NXT they won me over with their interaction w/ teddy long last week specifically Titus.
I just watched their segments from tonight and I wasn't disappointed.
Definitely am a fan and that was a sick finisher on Yoshi.
(dog barks!!!!)
Having not been an nxt watcher how does their stuff on there compare to the last two weeks? Anything I should look up?

Not really. They were in a feud but then Titus turned heel and they became an alliance. They haven't really been the focal point for NXT in the last month. These last two weeks have been the best I've seen of either of them. Especially Titus. |

Is it me or does Darren Young resemble a dark John Cena with a mini afro?

Darren Young actually mentioned Black Cena in the Nexus fake apology promo.

I've always been a fan of Young, he's a really good worker. Never liked O'Neil, but at least he's showing some personality.

Anything I should look up? wrestling wise, nothing too noteworthy. Just fueding with the Usos same as on Smackdown. Personality wise, you must see their backstage interactions with and about Tamina. |

These are the only clips of them on WWe's Youtube account surprisingly. Seriously though watch NXT from about January on, skip to all the Darren Youngg and Titus O'Neil backstage parts, if you want to get a feel of their chemistry.
As a face, I thought he was a good hit with the crowd, albeit boring to me. As a heel, the man is his surprisingly hilarious. He was a bit forced at first with his "all you people are holding me back, and I hate that stupid leprachaun" schtick, but his cockblocking of Darren Young made him shine.

I'm mostly a fan, though their finisher needs work. Young isn't comfortable off the ropes it seems because his clothesline actually looks more like a punch or forearm there

I remember when a black guy mocked Yoshi Tatsu and got his head kicked in.
