I feel it’s not talked about enough that the NXT theme song back then is about not blowing your load too fast when you’re having sex Written and performed by a band called AMERICAN BANG which I have not stopped thinking about for 10+ years. Also look at this f***ing Full House intro oh my lord www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2Vr6D1NL0E |

Reading the comments on that video and seeing people say “This was my childhood!” “Nostalgia! This was the good shit” is making me SICK. EDIT: This f***ing thread has me watching Conor O’Brian segments and I’m sorry to laugh because it’s an emotional story but this dude really just said “These guys haven’t gone through what I’ve gone through. For 3 months, I was eating beans.” |

For 3 months, I was eating beans.” They started with him being a normal person who was bullied for having a mouse-like face, to him eventually devolving into a human rat man who ate cheese off the floor. Edit: I found the video of him literally being a human rat man. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOpHPfgqKW4 |

Edit: I found the video of him literally being a human rat man. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOpHPfgqKW4I remember him trying to get over “SEE?” in an Edward G Robinson/Police Chief Wiggum voice at the start and it fell completely flat. I kind of feel bad for the season 4 competitors. Even as a younger man watching, it felt pretty transparent that they were bottom-of-the-barrel FCW guys who had no hype behind them and WWE was just ‘stalling’ while trying to find a TV deal. I know that there was another season planned with Bo, Rollins, Sandow, Big E, Leo Kruger, and Hunico (there are also photos of Jinder posing in the yellow ring) that never happened but was scrapped, and I can’t help but think they were trying to ‘save’ those guys. |

Season 2 was just a complete crapshow the whole way through.
Eli Cottonwood's mustache, Lucky Cannon... existing?

Still better than Eli Cottonwood’s mustache.
Though, farting into a mic is better than both.

I don’t know whether to spank you or breast feed you. Dude. WHAT. My favorite thing about that season 2 finale is all the losers beating up Kaval and then for no reason at all, Alex Riley starts attacking Percy Watson and does like three moves on him. Lol Oh and MVP doing his corner kick to Titus who sells it by casually walking away Oh man I completely forgot about Riley randomly attacking Percy LMAO There was a hilarious moment at the end where all the NXT guys are standing over Kaval's lifeless body and you can just see Percy Watson (who's just recovered from Riley kicking his ass) doing his "OH YEAH!" pose 😂 I actually forgot he did the pose, too, though I do remember him shouting a very enthusiastic "OH YEAH" to conclude the episode. Look, the concept of "Tough Enough, but completely scripted, and starring developmental wrestlers who will mostly be called up regardless" was a always going to be dodgy, but I feel like that second season was about where WWE said "yeah, this is going nowhere". Redemption was fun, though. |

I actually get really mad about this, because the dude was put into an impossible situation. They very obviously came up with the whole thing on the fly, immediately ran at him backstage springing the whole thing on him out of nowhere, gave him zero motivation or direction except to say "genesis" a lot, told the other guys absolutely nothing but made them run out and do things, too. Of course it was a shitty promo; it was practically designed to be.
don't even get me STARTED on Eli Cottonwood deliberately being given a terrible promo cue as some kind of prank.

I believe one of nine the circles of hell is a void where nothing but this promo, and the following beatdown play on loop for eternity.

I do think Barrett won the first season by taking the subject of Wind and making it a pretty good promo
