I wish they'd stay in NXT for the moment. I get the feeling that the reason Harper and Rowan didn't win the Tag Team Championships from The Usos back at either Money In The Bank or Battleground is because they're saving the big heel tag title run for when The Ascension debuts, and thus they want Jimmy and Jey to hold onto the belts until then.

Then again, if Goldust and Stardust weren't about to win the gold, then turning them heel would probably be pretty pointless so maybe that theory is off.

Far better way to promote the Network than by shoving 9.99$ in every other segment, good exposure for NXT as well. It'd also be nice if they have the NXT title be defended in the curtain jerker for the PPVs since special NXT events only roll around every few months.

Agreed 100%, I totally think the NXT title should be defended atleast once in awhile on the kickoff show or as the first match of the night on some of the PPVs.. WM for example would be a decent place to do it at.

So feuding with Hideo is your answer apparently. I wonder if those three will move up together then? I think they will put Hideo on the fast track and The Ascension are due.

I wouldn't be surprised seeing Hideo and Balor debuting after the Rumble, tbh...

As far as The Ascension goes, they may as well debut as a part of the new Wyatt Family. You never know, the rumors've been circling around for months. I have a feeling that either Bray Wyatt with/without Ascension will be showing up at HIAC PPV, to screw Ambrose out of the victory.

Ascension & Charlotte will be debuting after HIAC or after Survivor Series is what I'm calling. They're the first DLC for the new game so I imagine they will be brought up just after or right before the game is released.. Hideo & Balor I can see both debuting at or after the RR.

The Ascension should be called up but being squashed by 2 new comers ain't gonna do anything good for them. Sure they've had a good puro legacy but WWE is a new level for all talents according to Hugh G. Rection and Alex Riley.

Yeah, that's exactly what I've been thinking.

Actually, I think they should shift towards the same persona as Luke Harper and Erick Rowan if they're to be adopted by Bray.

I'm still really for the Ascension ending up being their own tag team separate of Bray.. I just really don't think they need to do that type of thing.. They can make their own name within the current product IMO.. there's no reason to force them into an adopted sons story line with Bray.. the two of them can strive completely separate from Bray and his family.

I see them in an enforcer role, either for Bray or for the Authority.

I don't see them getting over with their complete lack of mic skills. They'll be the victim of "boring" chants despite their solid in-ring work if they can't talk. If they're with Bray or HHH, they won't have to do the talking and can be "silent muscle".

A WK sighting and I agree with it damn near 100%.. personally I think they probably have the mic skills in them but with their current gimmick aint no need to bring in their mic skills to the table... (ignore my double negative!!)
