That testing was done by the powerlifting competition he entered and he was fired because it looked bad to keep him.

He also didn't tell them he was entering the competition beforehand.

Nothing new here obviously but NXT and their Florida shows, in particular, are still developmental but the talent on offer here....

The initial word I've got from NXT people is that Kyle fears Corporate heat for this.

A lot of old Pro Wrestling traditions are overly self-serious and macho but I do think dealing with fans this way should still be accepted public traded or not.

You gotta play a lot of situations by ear obviously, but the guy had no business getting in there and if security wasn't there to stop him then the absolute best thing to do is neutralize the potential threat as quickly as possible.

I can't imagine VKM personally having an issue with it, but yeah, the company line could be completely different. On the other hand, you only have to point to the guy from the Royals who got assaulted about a decade ago. You don't know what kind of poo poo people will pull when they run onto the field/into the ring. Hope it turns out okay for him.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
Chris Hero is one of the nicest dudes in Wrestling but I don't think for a second if I jumped the rails in one of his matches he wouldn't elbow me right between the eyes as hard as he could

I thought she was a really good natural heel and that WWE honestly probably doesn't need to do much in the way of revamping or extending that character beyond that.

Maybe they're going to crown a new NXT champion who's over 30.

Do you all realize that NXT has never had a world champion who's career started at the performance center?

The good/bad thing is that thanks to the passage of time, there will always be a 38 year old indie guy HHH wants to be friends with, so there never will be a Performance Center based champion.

Maybe they should make a midcard belt for the developmental talent to contend for.

Big E and Bo are WWE homegrown, but started their careers before the Performance Center was opened in 2013.
