WWE NXT & Superstars Thread

[Aniking]

With Titus O'Neil and Darren Young being moved from NXT to SmackDown, there are rumblings that a new tag team from FCW may make their debut on this week's NXT.

My thoughts are Bo Rotunda & Husky Harris or Corey Graves & Jake Carter who are current FCW Tag Champs.

But I'd kill to see Rollins/Ambrose as a tag.

Where'd you hear that? I wouldn't mind that happening. I hope it's the Rotunda brothers.

Rollins & Ambrose shouldn't go anywhere near NXT, not even with a ten inch pole and the three shows sit a metre a part.

Rofl, people have been eagerly anticipating Ambrose and Rollins' debuts for ages now so the genius that is Andrew thinks they should be brought up as a shitty tag team on NXT?

With WWE they'd do that unfortunately even if it's just to get them on the roster for a bit.

I'll lean with Rotunda/Harris

Read that the new tag is from FCW and will be on NXT either this week or the next.

Superstars

*Kelly Kelly beat Maxine.

*The Miz beat Alex Riley.

Note: Lots of "Yes" of chants. LOTS!

at Miz being on Superstars

Maxine

 

[Andrew]

Miz is going to be the next NXT Superstar at this rate.

 

[Heisenberg]

Maxine and Kelly in the same ring? awesome.

 

[Troy]

Shows how far Riley and Miz have both dropped. Their feud last year was much bigger than anyone could have predicted yet WWE buried Riley after and now the Miz has fallen off completely.

Dark Match


* Dean Ambrose defeated Zeke Jackson


WWE NXT Taping


* Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks are sitting front row at the arena.


* Tyson Kidd and Alex Riley defeated JTG and Johnny Curtis. Kidd forced JTG to tap.


* Security escorted Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks out of the arena.


* Michael McGillicutty defeated Percy Watson



WWE Superstars: (Airing Thursday)


* Dolph Ziggler (without Vickie Guerrero) defeated Mason Ryan. Ziggler bumped like a champ and had Ryan in a front face lock for over three minutes. After Ryan broke free, he charged at Ziggler, missing him and hitting the post. Ziggler won with the Zig Zag.


* Zack Ryder pinned Michael McGuillicuty. Several “Woo Woo Wooâ€￾ chants from the fans and Ryder appeared to be quite over in Dayton. Ryder won with the Rough Ryder.


* The Great Khali defeated Jinder Mahal

Interesting development with Hawkins and Reks sitting in the front row.

No Maxine means i'm not watching NXT this week

 

[Heisenberg]

Only watch NXT for Maxine in ring attire. So won't be watching this week.

 

[Troy]

So Hawkins and Reks will probably get a shot to win their way back onto the show at a later date.

They were asked about the distribution of Superstars and NXT. They are being monetized internationally and they hope to place those shows "on traditional networks" very soon.

Found this in the earnings report from WWE today. It has been really odd that they held off these two shows for so long, even if they wanted them on the Network they could have distributed them on six month contracts to earn something from them.

Almost sounds like a TNA thing when I read about Regal finding new talent

However I missed NXT yesterday but will catch up on it, just wish it was a 3rd brand similiar to WWECW.

 

[Troy]

Sounds exactly like ECW to me when they had their New Talent Initiative which produced a ton of talented wrestlers.

It's nothing like WWE's ECW. NXT pales in comparison to what the WWE did with ECW, and even then it was obviously nothing too flash. It at least had it's own roster, it's own championships and a proper GM. NXT has none of that.

 

[Troy]

I was just commenting on Andrew's post where he says that Regal finding new talent reminds him of TNA. To me it reminded me of ECW, I don't think that NXT compares to ECW at all just that one idea.

I was a massive fan of the WWE version of ECW, created a ton of new stars and revived the careers of many others. It drew much better ratings than NXT ever did so WWE were fools to drop it.
