Nxt is 3rd

A thinking hoss…

Man, Shinsuke right now has been treated like an after thought. Even his theme was changed just to bring down a notch of his popularity and it worked because no one sings or erupts loud enough when he is coming down the ring.

Joe also is obviously being buried. Losing nearly every match, getting the first elimination… where is he at?

There is no doubt that their representation now is 10x weaker than it was on NXT and during their introduction to the main roster.

Joe is not getting buried…

Kayfabe news dropping truth bombs again.

Didn’t get a chance to see that VR stuff WWE was doing…

I’m not denying this part. I’m denying the fact the people you mentioned are being buried. Which they’re not.

Some of the treatment the nxt roster has gotten post-call up have been abysmal. Namely the Revival, arguably the top heels in nxt being beat by a make shift tag team of Gable/Rose. That shit shouldn’t happen.

Same can also be said for Sanity. They were built up for months with vignettes and they’ve been no where to be seen post-debut.

I fucking love PAC.

Angelo Dawkins and Aliyah have to be the longest tenured NXT Superstars right now…

Angelo got shipped off to Evolve which has become NXT’s NXT. He’s never leaving developmental.

Yeah, street profits and Fabian Achnier got shipped off to evolve. They’re the tag champs and evolve champ, respectively

congrats to mustafa Ali for being “called up” to SDL. Maybe 205 live isn’t purgatory after all.

Speaking of Sanity and the Good Brothers.

Please keep this momentum going for Mustafa Ali. Dude deserves it. He was an absolute work horse on 205 and constantly murdered himself weekly.

Oh schnap…

Summary

Christmas day is US CHAMP RUSEV DAY!!!

To be fair EVERYDAY IS RUSEV DAY!

Smackdown was damn good per usual

Ali reminds me hella of x pac

Smackdown this week and next week turned shit up to 11 and out shined RAW again.

I mean it’s like fox offered them a billion dollars wants all the top stars and likes the more sports presentation smackdown has been offering since 2016

Apparently one of the guys at fox specifically wanted smackdown and is relaying what they want for the product and fox wants to take over on production

So yay maybe we get more good shit

Nakamura losing the us title is great. If he goes face again and just knees people in the face. Hell i am all about pairing nakamura, itami, with joe as a stiff fuck up people group

It’s a nice start this week that they are reintroducing some less-used superstars. I hope they don’t bail in like a month if ratings don’t jump right away, and then revert back to the same cast of characters. The WWE (+ NXT) roster is deep enough to sit out people for a week or two and keep things fresh.
