I love his RAW guest hosts performance. IMO, he was the only one suitable to do it. I don't see anyone else bringing the entourage. LMAO @ the guy jumping off the table to get Hornswoggle.
ECW or NXT?

DEFINITELY.
I think WWE might realize that they should have brought some of the NXT guys straight to the main roster instead of some of the talent they have brought up in the last couple months prior to NXT.
idk. Alot of them are sloppy and unorthodox in the ring. They are extremely green and all over the place and are at a lost for solid gimmicks.
ECW.
At least we got Christian putting on a good match against anyone on pretty much a weekly basis (And Show's title run was pretty damn good at the start of "ECW"). ECW also gave us Punk and Swagger (And Sheamus), so it actually did a better job of introducing new talent than NXT has.
I do like NXT because of the Daniel Bryan factor, but that's about it.

Fuck Daniel Bryan lol.
I was expecting throughout NXT for me to warm up to Bryan, I don't hate him the way I used to but I still do not see people infatuation with him tbh. I even went as far as to check out some of his ROH work, I still say that Nigel is better in the ring imo.

Can't believe I didn't mention this. ECW's opening theme was all right, while NXT's flat-out blows.
I have to agree. Sure he might have been great in other companies, but as far as the WWE goes, because WWE functions quite different from other promotions, I don't see Bryan lasting. Daniel Bryan is a great wrestler, one of the top in the world, but when does WWE actually search for great wrestlers? If WWE wanted awesome wrestlers, we wouldn't sit through such shitty matches every week. WWE cares more about entertaining a crowd. Daniel Bryan has one good quality in terms of entertaining. He can play the role of the underdog sympathetic character, more like a Rey Mysterio without having an actual gimmick. I am not saying Colin Delaney type, because I know Bryan is 10x better than that queer.
All I am saying is that in the NXT line of possible stars to make it onto the main roster, I would not put Bryan first. Otunga is a shoe in, Gabriel would make it onto the roster faster than Bryan. Daniel Bryan really needs more of a personality and an image. Right now he looks like a wrestler right out of a high school wrestling team. It just isn't going to work in the WWE.
Que the ROH fans to get pissed.
Since neither was not an option, I had to go with ECW cause NXT hasn't really impressed me too much.
I hate that now it is pretty obvious that Daniel Bryan will win the thing as the winner gets a title shot and Bryan is the only one to have any beef with a title holder (other than Otunga but I can't see an NXT rookie challenging for a world title plus John Cena probably won't be WWE champion in 3 months or when ever the final is). Way to give it away WWE :thumbsup:!
ECW was only GREAT in 06 and part of 07 but it got bland over the years and didnt really mean much. As for NXT its a different concept not all that Great but I have to say its better that the recent ECW.
I think it is too dead of a give away to happen. If Bryan does in fact challenge the Miz for the US belt by being the winner of the show, he will be a dumbass. He has a title shot for ANY title. Why not the World or WWE title? His beef with Miz isn't that bad to turn down a World/WWE title shot. He isn't ready for main event competition? Why turn down the opportunity to take the top belt or the mid card belt? Basically he won't come off that big of a superstar if he ends up challenging for the US belt.

YOU DAMN RIGHT I'M GONNA GET PISSED! Everyone knows that cue isn't written with a Q :shifty:
As for Bryan, I think he'll succeed in WWE due simply to his in-ring ability (You know, once he gets to show against some people that are actually good). As for his mic skills, they're slowly improving. I think the biggest knock in that department is that he comes across as a regular guy who happens to be in the wrestling/sports entertainment business as opposed to this over the top "SUPERSTAR".
In the long run, it could actually help since a lot of people can rely to a "normal dude" who just goes out and does work (By work I mean making bitches tap out).
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think Gabriel is to spot-tastic. He comes across as more of an indy guy than Bryan, since his offense is pretty much entirely based on flipping around the ring.

Yeah but can you honestly see WWE putting that much faith into any of the rookies that have not been out of FCW 3 months, I know somebody is going to mention Sheamus but he was in WWE a bit longer and had been competing with already established WWE superstars regularly whereas NXT rookies have been competing with rookies and the odd jobber (with the acception of Daniel Bryan but I can't be arsed going into why he shouldn't challenge for a world title) so I think somehow WWE will make it credible for the rookie to not challenge for a world title and the only person I can think they could do that with is Daniel Bryan.

ECW. I wasn't a huge fan of it but I prefer it over this NXT bullshit. The concept sounded good at first but it's gotten boring.
ECW was cool when it started but ECW is Raven, Jerry Lynn, RVD, Sabu, Terry Funk, Tommy Dreamer, Taz, Cactus Jack, BWO, and wrestlers like that.
If WWE wanted to add a third show, it shouldn't have been called ECW because it was not ECW. Vince's ECW wasn't any different from Smack Down or Raw... only less interesting. Sure a great new talent in CM Punk evolved from it but there's a reason they moved him to raw.
I saw Vince's ECW about three times and that was three times too many... cause it sucked! That's just my opinion.
