And then Vince shat on them in the main roster

I think the funniest part of the 2.0 branding so far is that they're clearly aiming for young viewers but I'm getting more throwback vibes than anything with the format and characters they're doing lol

 

[Leon TrotSky]

They were smackdab in the middle of the game show season 3 when it happened the first time lmao syfy said fuck that noise

Pretty sure game show NXT being on TV was only to fulfill the rest of the WWECW contract anyway

 

[Dale]

Yeah more straight up gimmicks, feels like in these few weeks it's had more personality about it though than in forever

 

[Leon TrotSky]

At least Syfy didn't demand that NXT season 1 feature a zombie

i think that's that's happened but I think they were still planning on it being renewed until everyone stopped watching in season 2

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Speaking of WWE, I am actually quite excited for the Draft

 

[Chris]

I'm much more of a fan of the basic stereotype gimmicks than I should be tbh lol

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Because it's the only time a year when it feels like new stuff is about to happen

 

[Chris]

They're teasing splitting up tag teams this year too when I think they've just been drafted together most of the time, that might make me mad tho depending on the teams

I want Tony D'Angelo to create a new generation Full Blooded Italians tbh

 

[Dale]

I'm all for it, sure the quality of wrestling is going to dip for a while but it'll upturn again

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Not enough Italian guys? Doesn't matter! Remember the original ECW FBI? There was like, one Italian in that

Yeah it this is way more noticeable bc they have to fill 2 hours too, would much prefer going back to 1 with this format

Feels like they crammed too much shit in even with 2 hours
