Benne posted:People love Tye because, even though he's not an indie geek with street cred, he's paid his dues for over a decade, failed several times, but kept coming back and trying again, unwavering. And now he's finally on the main roster, which is something nobody could've predicted a year ago. He'll probably never be more than a midcard drone, but that's still a really cool "overcoming the odds" story that's easy to get behind.

Nxt sucks and HHH is killing indie wrestling because he actually think he is a smart booker. Asuka is cool.

As great as Tye finally winning was, I have to say the highspot of the match to me was EY's flying elbow. Looked brutal as hell and was perfectly executed, despite the height, whereas most people trying the elbow drop can barely keep their form just coming off the top rope.

Beef Jerky Robot posted:NXT: Hunter x Hunter  okay, it might be partially Hunter's company line, but it seems like NXT has re-built a new class really well. And that includes the writing - there was a period where the booking was boring, but it's turned around pretty well.

Why isn't Danny Burch a bigger deal? He's always been really solid and he's got some nice in-ring tough guy charisma, but they rarely use him. Is he just booked elsewhere all the time or do they have nothing for him?

One thing I will say on newer WWE/NXT belt designs: I will flat out admit I am a shameless mark for side plates.

Seems like he's keeping himself busy enough in the UK indie scene.

i liked Burch even when he was a featured player but by most accounts he's improved a great deal after getting let go. He's a top face in Georgia? People really love their Statham knockoffs, and I say that as a fan of the man.harperdc posted:
The one thing that doesn't change is that their roster is still overstuffed. Sooner or later the new talent smell will fade and we'll be back where we were, with names like Hero, Roddy, Drew, Almas, Nikki and Ruby being featured far below their potential in matchups with little stakes.

People really love their Statham knockoffs, and I say that as a fan of the man. Understandable. But I've also realized that I enjoy the two good "studio wrestling" shows out there now - NXT and Lucha Underground - partially because they've got enough names to rotate each week without leaning too heavily on any of them. Sure, somebody can appear in two straight weeks and not be overexposed, but if they are away a couple episodes they can be picked right back up without missing a beat. Keeps things fresh in a good way. (It's almost like Raw and Smackdown are each too long and try to book everyone every week. Huh.)

I really couldn't have cared less about Danny Burch until the U.K. tournament at which point I became infuriated that he's just been so wasted in NXT.
