Here's what I find funny about a stable of DDP, clean Jake The Snake, and clean Scott Hall returning to the WWE: they would be the most dominating faction in WWE history because EVERYONE would want to job to them.

I'm elated that it looks like he's keeping the gimmick, I'd almost rather prefer he gets a new name though because I'd hate to think of him signing the rights over.

I wonder how much control HHH has there. Is it possible that he could allow someone to maintain that gimmick without obtaining the rights in NXT, but Vince could override that if he gets called up?

Talent Relations were quite poor when Ace was in charge for a number of reasons. I'd say the reason so many indy guys are getting hired is because Triple H actually cares about the prosperity of the business, and in instances like El Generico or CM Punk where they have so much charisma and such an established name, it doesn't hurt to let them keep their gimmicks and names.

Yeah, I'd like to believe Trips has realized that Generico is one of the biggest names on the indie circuit, and touching the gimmick in any way would diminish it.

Far more likely that it's a case of "We've got some house shows and a new guy to put on them, we'll let him use his Indie stuff till we think of the right generic, Canadian sounding name for TV."

But a man can dream, though. A man can dream...

He's VERY good for a big man. I'm still unsure about his finisher though. Sometimes it looks loving brutal, sometimes it looks like it hurts him more than the other guy.

He hasn't had a match longer than 2 minutes in NXT, aside from his title win over Seth Rollins. He's crisp, his moves look impactful, and he can be carried by guys as good as Rollins - I'm not sure where that puts him on the lovely-not lovely scale.

I hope so, but he hasn't shown the ability to transcend their lovely material yet. I liked his "black comedian's white guy voice" promo at Rumble, but nothing else he's said on TV has even come close to being as funny as he is on Twitter. Hopefully he can make the most of it.

Kevin Nash being a dick as usual

Truther Vandross

Nash is an idiot who doesn't understand dependency and thinks that Hall has just made a clear choice to continue using drugs for years. He also probably doesn't like the fact that DDP might do something that he could never do, which is save Scott Hall, and I'm sure if Hall sticks it out and is improved in a year or so, it will be because Nash had a heart to heart with him in late 2012 and convinced him to get help or something because everything has to revolve around Kevin Nash.

People are under a lot of stress, Bradley.
Jake tweeted that Hall had been sober for 15 days, and in that video, he's clearly hosed up on the phone, so I'm guessing that video was actually shot a few weeks ago. In which case, it's entirely possible that Hall did go to a detox center to dry out before going to the house.
