I hate to say it, but I think I'm fully over NXT now.
I mean what's next? They have to try and seduce Vickie Guerrero?

I think they booked this show for too long before eliminations began, and now they're scrambling for ideas to keep it interesting.

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. This. But seen as NXT wasn't just a massive iron man chain wrestling match with Daniel Bryan winning by taking out everyone with super submissions and then kicking out Michael Cole, you have to hate it. Get with the program! |

At this point, I'm just waiting for them to do the inevitable swimsuit competition, or at the very least a bodybuilding posing contest ala Rude/Warrior.

Justin Gabriel has a personality? I marked for Wade Barrett's attempt. They should have just brought him up without putting him on NXT first. |

This whole thing has actually made me really like Tarver, because he refuses to do any of these idiotic things.
I mean, I think I see what the storyline is supposed to be? Like, Oh you can't come in here with a sense of entitlement, because success in pro wrestling is 100% determined by hard work and actually deserving it!
But screw that. He IS the product. He's right.

Next week they will probably have to go on a date with former women's champion Bertha Faye.

I've given NXT a bunch of chances but every time I turn it on they're doing something so ridiculously awful I'm forced to turn it off. Last night was the last chance.

The way I see it, they aren't trying to train them to be WWE wrestlers but Sports Entertainers. The selling programs deal is to basically see if the audience would be able to buy into their gimmick for a PPV match. The keg challenge was to determine who had the better aspect of power and speed. The one last week was to determine balance and concentration. The promo ones was to see who can come up with a promo on the fly about anything.

Pfft, you just don't know anything about the business.
What about the time Miz sold three pounds of sugar for a donkey? Huh? You think Daniel Bryan could do that in a damn basketball auditorium?
The point of the WWE is not wrestling, it's things like this. Selling things that have nothing to do with you. HHH sells teddy bears dressed as vikings. Is he a furry? I don't know, but he does it because he loves the business!
