Cedric's last singles win on Raw or Smackdown was in 2021 over Reggie for the 24/7 title.

CopywrightMMXI posted:I caught Carmelo’s entrance last night on smackdown and he came out to dead silence. I’m not exaggerating at all, they cut to the performance Center during his entrance and the 40 people watching there made more noise than the 10k plus in the arena. In the few minutes I watched the only thing the crowd seemed in to was the Wooaaah during Cody’s entrance. For all this new era talk they went right to commercial after a minute of match time too. one of the things HHH doesn't get enough poo poo about is how bad a lot of NXT callups tend to do on main roster. years back when beloved son Aleister Black came up, he did literally nothing for like 90% of his tenure, spending time in a closet begging people to knock on his door. Andrade, in his first tenure with WWE, didn't do much either. Both were ripped from extremely good programs in NXT way, way too early and suffered for it. Carmelo Hayes coming out to crickets and then loving up immediately is par for the course now. Look at DIY, once the most over act in NXT (before the Shakespearean drama of a feud and the doubleturn that wasn't needed at all.) Now they're just two losers. Idk how The 4 Horsewomen, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Shinsuke Nakamura, Finn Balor, and Samoa Joe all escaped this fate but all those people were called up before Aleister/Andrade/DIY as well. Something happened or somebody stopped caring at this point, I have no idea, but at some juncture being called up from NXT was a death sentence. Bianca Belair I guess is the lone exception of the last few years? I remember when KO came up he beat the poo poo out of John Cena, now you get called up just to lose to Cody.

Considering the non pop received by someone who I believe is supposed to be over on NXT, it is overexposing them to a certain part of the audience, but underexposing them to the main bulk of it Which to me, means lol and lmao

It's so weird to me because Carmelo Hayes is a local guy I've seen quite a bit as he climbed through the indies in our area. He was massively talented and got over so quickly in every promotion he worked for, and carried so many titles before he got signed. We all fully expected him to be a sure thing as soon as he had a chance for his charisma to shine, but now it seems like he's turning into the Janetty of his team. It really just highlights how much the WWE can't let people show off an existing skillset and is dead-set on having everyone do the same thing and expects cheers simply *because* they're WWE superstars. I know it's still early in the new regime, but I'm skeptical of this changing much at this point.

Thinking about old NXT. Remember Bull Dempsey? That dude had such a weird little run down there. Tubby Goldberg push that the crowd just hated and not in a normal heel heat way if I remember right.

My friend got Nick Rogers fired. He brought a Push Nick Rogers sign to Raw once as a bit and the guy saw it and tweeted about it and was released a few days later. Then they released the FCW documentary where they spent two minutes burying Nick Rogers with a compilation showing how all of his promos were the same.
