What exactly is the point of continuously employing those streaming chuds, anyway? I feel like they're deep enough in the bowels of NXT that I only hear about them for being shitlords - granted, I don't really watch much WWE product, but I'm at least familiar with most of the NXT talent by name.

They might make another promotion a dollar. Perhaps even 2 dollars. WWE can't let that stand.

Considering how long they’ve been in development, they aren’t ever going to make any company bigger than Billy Joe Bob’s Backyard Brawl Extravaganza any money.

Yeah for reference, Brennan Williams has been in NXT for pretty much 6 years now and I don't think he's made a single TV appearance. Mansoor has been in NXT for 1.5 years now, and his only appearance on TV was him losing in a squash match.

That's why it's weird - they're NXT never-will-bes, not like...Randy Orton. There's no need to keep them around if they're going to be any kind of liability, though I'm not sure how far this kind of poo poo is making it outside The Bubble.

I was quietly rooting for Brennan for a long time because huge dude that loves anime and dresses like the bad guys from a 2D beat em up with the Ealy Brothers was cool as hell but this Mansoor fucker sure seems to have poisoned him and if he's in the trenches of developmental this long he probably ain't making it anyway. :(

MVP is super cool, I really wish he got better at wrestling. But given he was a late start and a violent offender, what he's accomplished is amazing.

Lio Rush is a Very Good Wrestler, and he probably should be featured more often on TV. He's also 5'0 and should probably both temper his expectations and not make enemies outta the people that might help him carve a niche despite not fitting the pre-requisites to "make it".

I'm not talking about fellow workers, I'm talking about fans, you don't wanna look like an entitled rear end in a top hat because wrestling fans get really mad at people that air complaints, valid as they might be.

Hes one of those guys who is absolutely good enough to be on TV but his personality and size means signing with WWE is one of the worst things he could have done

She liked my tweet saying that we have to refer to her as WWE ASUKA and the other one as Asuka so she is factually referring to the other Asuka in this tweet.
