I don't think it is controversial to say that the No Quarter Catch Crew are approximately nobody's favourite faction in NXT and they're about to start competing for nobody's favourite title: the Heritage Cup. The result will likely have the live thread viewers tuning out in their droves.
So I am left with a question: what is it about the crew that draws apathy at best and disdain at worst? I don't watch NXT in its entirety. I skim the live thread the morning after to check if any of the wrestlers I'm all in on (at the moment that's Charlie Dempsey) appeared and/or did anything, seek that out and then go about my week. This means I see the crew as an inoffensively bland collection of wrestlers that take themselves too seriously.
However, I must be missing something due to lack of context. So can someone tell me what's wrong with NQCC and what (if anything) can be done to salvage them?

I don't watch NXT so take this with whatever scepticism needed but that name sucks. The members of it I'm interested in or like but the name sounds like something some frat bro, MMA wannabe, tribal tats and TAPOUT dickhead would call his group of friends.

Gulak's naturally good at comedy stuff, but any time he tries to be serious wrestler guy it's boring as hell. Also, I miss bitter asshole Damon Kemp. He was hilarious.

I'm not liking that name either, because the first thing I thought of when I saw it was "Blackpool Combat Club". Why didn't Regal/Charlie step in and say it didn't look like such a good idea?

What if we brought it back... but made it even more boring!"

It really is amazing that Drew Gulak is exactly as bad at being serious as he is good at being comedic and yet for some reason he insistently keeps trying to do the GRRSRSWRESTLER shtick. He's so boring.

They're just really boring. The best thing I can say about them is that at least they're not Gallus.

I don’t really watch a lot of NXT, but seems like they have that Timothy Thatcher syndrome of just being boring as presented.

I was so disappointed when he switched from his "No Fly Zone" character to "Generic Wrestler 47", they need to bring back his old character, it's perfect for this NXT
