That's the best challenge they could come up with! Couldn't WWE come up with a challenge that's actually challenging and would actually test the skills the rookies would use since they're fighting for a contract, like WRESTLING!? I didn't know they were competing to be the program seller!
I could come up with a better challenge in my sleep! Hell, I'll even throw one out: have the rookies try to beat the Big Show in 5 minutes. That would be more interesting and better suited to what they're gonna be doing, i.e. wrestling!

Well, I did not take that into consideration. |

Exceptional, this post. And a little sad in the inherent truth of it. |

Wow I love how WWE turned NXT into the new Diva Search. Wait a go WWE for making not only women unappealing but now quality wrestlers as well bravo! Right now this has my vote for gooker of the year. Although the WWE Comic is close although I'm unsure that it qualifies since it's not really a connected to storylines but it should, that is truly awful.

Yeah the Piggie James angle was bad. But with NXT I feel it's worse because it started out good by showcasing new talent and having good matches than all of a sudden they felt the need to do Diva Search style challenges, because that was so awesome the first time they did and now NXT is a big joke. I mean how are you going to get someone over by having them roll a keg, play rock-em sock-em robots or selling programs. Is Eric Bischoff writing this show? |

Actually, the Big Show idea might work- if it was more like "given that this man is a TOTAL monster and will maul you silly... who will last the longest?"

Carrying Keg: Strength and Speed
Okay makes sense.
Promo Time: Mic Skills
Yeah wrestlers need that.
Rock 'Em Sock 'Em: Stamina and Balance
Hmm...makes sense if Justin Gabriel wins this...not so sure about the others...
Selling Programs: Uhh...

Not to go against the grain, but out of all of the "challenges," I liked this one the most. It showed each of their personalities, and actually made me care about Michael Tarver.

If anyone got practice for a future career, it was Tarver carrying bags tonight. |
