Kevin Owens killed any interest I had in NXT, honestly.
Why?
I've seen this feud twice before and Steen has always played the same gimmick in every promotion I've seen him in.
So?
The fact that they've done it multiple times elsewhere and are doing it again in WWE who btw is know for not rehashing indie stuff speaks volumes of how good these two are together.
NXT just lost it's mojo for a minute. It's starting to become background noise around these parts. Even my wife whose a big mark for NXT fell out of love for it. I dunno what it is...lack of Zayn? need of a extra hour? Nothing major going on in the promotion?
I fell for the hype honestly.
They do Cena and Orton a dozen times. Doesn't mean it's good for everyone.

The fact that people mark out about the NJPW version of this still gets me.
Alot of people still enjoy it. Zayn is back now and they are building to the next pay per view. Plus using this topic as the judgement of NXT is not the best when they are in such demand they added another show for the start of the tour in Philadelphia.

Cena/Orton has always been bad. Steen/Zayn was always good.
I don't get the comparison.

It's been pretty bland for the last month. Usually the quarterly specials are when it picks up. The Zayn vs Owens rematch just isn't as interesting as previous title matches, but maybe they'll surprise us.NXT just lost it's mojo for a minute.

NXT has been in a rut since Wrestlemania. They're basically trying to hold their own until the next not-PPV where Zayn/Owens gets wrapped up. That and it seems like since they know Itami, Balor, and Zayn are not long for NXT, so they're trying to build up some newbs.

I think it would help if it was at least a half hour longer. Add some more promos. Get more story in there.
Also maybe another title?

Personal stuff.
I think I'm shaving my head tonight. I don't want to be that guy that tries to hold on too long.

NXT has lost a lot of its luster and I think that has to do with the fact that they continue to have holding pattern shows and a noticeably weak roster at the moment.
NXT was built up by the fact they had so many people who were obviously not developmental and now that ratio is pretty even and it drags the shows down.
I blame NXT's rut on team wub wub.
It's official, I'm going to be front row at the NXT house show in Albany! Anybody else in Upstate NY-GAF going?

Jeff Jarrett has been contacting talent of late. We dont know all the people contacted but if guys are good and not under contract with ROH or TNA, or guys whose contracts he knows are expiring, those are the guys hes after. Weve heard mixed bags on pay. Scott DAmore and Sonjay Dutt are working with Jarrett from an office capacity as well. Dutt has been calling talent. Jarrett has offered at least some talent the possibility of 39 dates, although the company has noted theyve got the 12 dates confirmed which were announced and the other 27 are dates not yet confirmed. They are now calling a ton of people, pretty much the guys in ROH without a contract are the key names weve heard, with Roderick Strong being the biggest name out of that group. Other names weve heard being talked with include Team 3-D, Shelton Benjamin and Chris Masters. A key to this is going to be whether Jarrett or ROH winds up with the New Japan connection, because a lot of the talent wants to go to New Japan and will align with whichever company can get them there the smoothest

The plan for Lana long-term right now is to be the female face of the company once her babyface turn is completed. At least thats the long-term plan this week. Vince McMahon feels that part of the transition has to include a reveal that shes really American. The plan is to keep the Lana name, although there has at least been talk of C.J. (Her real name is Catherine Jo Perry), with the idea C.J. makes people think hot blond because of the character Pamela Anderson played in Baywatch. What will be interesting if they do or dont put pressure on her in that position to not post photos in social media of her still dating Rusev after they do the television break-up. Either way will be extremely telling of how they view the current audience and social media.
Evidently the disappearance of the curb stomp has to do with advice from the legal department, likely from the fallout of the concussion lawsuits. The move was also removed from his entrance video, and when they show clips from WrestleMania, the curb stomp is no longer the finishing move that laid out Lesnar and Reigns.
