Performance Center getting buried feels like an overreaction. I can understand a case being made for more PC folks and less established talent on NXT but the way I look at it, most of the PC talent is starting from nothing. It's going to take them years in most cases to be TV-ready, and like it or not, that's the standard they must meet now since NXT is on USA. Before COVID, the PC trainees were getting their reps in on live events, unfortunately that just isn't an option for them at this moment. Guys like Eli Drake are only stopping in NXT for a cup of coffee most likely, just until they get acclimated to how WWE works and they find out how they want to market him. We've seen it pretty recently with guys like EC3, Keith Lee and Damian Priest. They're only there long enough to get their feet under them and then they're off to Raw or Smackdown, so basically what I'm getting at, is they aren't there long enough hogging spots for it to be setting back the development of PC recruits who need years in most cases to be anywhere near capable of competing on the main roster. Those who come through the PC and are ready to compete alongside your Balors, Ciampas, Shirais, etc. are going to get the chance still. Look no further than Raquel Gonzalez, Xia Li, Kacy Catanzaro and Ridge Holland before he got hurt.
