Joe beat Nakamura for the NXT title. WWE shouldn't have vets in their mid 30's spending too much time in NXT. All it takes is one injury. Look at Finn for instance.Kenta/Hideo Itomi has been injured for most of his run in NXT.
I agree. They seem to want it both ways with NXT. They have a brand that's looks to become the alternative to the main stage that is Raw/SmackDown. They have their own Indy promotion with the option of Raw/SmackDown. Pretty smart. One of the many drawbacks is injuries and gimmicks that Don't translate in a bigger setting. Also that the the ceiling of Raw just won't go away.
It used to be that Cena is the end all be all and everyone came second to him if HHH wasn't in the picture. But that's really not the case now. It's really that the titles have been so devalued that becoming champ doesn't really mean anything. AJ is rehabilitating the SmackDown title. Miz was coming off great but for some reason Ziggler is there sucking all of the fun out of Miz's work. Thankfully they got it off him. They're more concerned with New Day setting the record more than good feuds. But I'm okay with them getting that merch paper. They deserve it. They ruined the US title giving it to Del Rio with it ending up on Reigns. And we know the deal with him. Rusev didn't deserve to be treating like a buffoon for Reigns and the for Goldberg. And that's not nearly all of the issues. I don't know what the fuck they are doing with Orton/Bray. And this Kevin Owens things was dead when HHH interfered.
And to cap it off, it's still the McMahon show. And even worse now, the Stephine show. Nobody asked for that shit. The bitch just like hearing her voice. I wonder how many women have been on the WWE creative team since Steph was on it.
