If you think NXT is a development league you're kidding yourself. Developmental leagues don't tour the country and sell out 10,000+ seat arenas. Maybe NXT used to be that but now it's a full fledged touring brand and needs quality talent to draw.

The days of being considered wasted by staying on NXT and not being being on Raw or SD are dead and gone. A lot of guys would rather be headlining a sold out NXT show in front of 12,000 people than be a mid-card act on the main roster. Joe is 100% fine because exactly where he's at and WWE isn't losing a thing by making him the top heel of the NXT brand.

AJs taken some bumps but he's usually had a really light schedule. TNA had little to no house show schedule through most of his run there and in Japan and the Indies he set his own dates. Plus I'm hopeful he can impress the
WWE brass enough where they'll take him off the road full time in 2 or 3 yrs but let him work major PPV programs

Very true. They would do 2-3 weeks of tapings in back-to-back-to-back(?) days.

Remember though, TNA stars would still let their guys do indy dates. TNA let their guys appear at ROH events until 2007, when ROH got their own PPV deal.

AJ Styles says he will retire in a couple years, wants to stay in ‪#‎WWE‬ after he hangs up his boots http://wrestlingnews.co/aj-styles-says-he-will-retire-in-a…/

more little guy syndrome, will probably be concussed soon and end up losing out on his future plans to be behind the scenes.

We need more big guys for those exiting bear hugs, leg drops, boots to the face, and other scintillating show stoppers.

Bringing back my earlier assessment of the Bandwagon that is the Roman Reigns hate.

YouTube wrestling videos comments on wrestling videos have become flooded with Roman Reigns sucks comments. Triple Threat match to determine the #1 contender for the NXT Women's Championship? Comments section flooded with Roman Reigns sucks comments.

Video on Bobby Heenan and his condition? Some fucktard brings up Romen Reigns there too.

Internet trolls who don't even watch wrestling jumping on the Hate Roman Reigns bandwagon.

Roman Reigns Hate has become the What Chant of 2016.

It's the same thing on Nascar boards and facebook posts in regards to Danica Patrick. It can be a post about Dale Earnhardt's birthday, or the anniversary of a driver dying, yet someone is going to turn it into Danica not deserving her ride and she should be in the kitchen making sandwiches. It's sad how obsessed people let themselves become with such minuscule things.

What is everyone's thoughts on this "Hatch" promo that WWE has ran the past few days on twitter?
WWE Posts New #Hatch Teaser For Raw - Wrestlezone

Internet rumor says it is the Smackdown fist set coming back.

I'm hoping it's the return of John Cena's rap gimmick, but who knows.

No idea but a kickass way to bring him up would be at the MITB show, have it be Anderson/Gallows vs AJ/Mystery Partner and have it be Joe. I think most would expect Finn Balor, given the Bullet Club connection, so it'd be a decent swerve. You've got Joe's history with AJ as a rival/respected colleague so it works there too. and ultimately you can call up Balor to feud with both and we've been seeing what Joe and Balor can do with each other on NXT (tear the house down)

a swerve with this WWE creative? LOL!

Strong possibility it's something Bray Wyatt related.

I truly hate what they have done with Wyatts. They could've perennial jobbers making other guys, like how Bray was on a roll of, then they started jobbing them to nobodies. Sorry, Big Show and Kane are nobodies in today's wrestling. They could've taken a dude on the rise and hit there music and it would've propped that guy up.

Absolutely disappointing what they did with Bray and the Wyatts. Maybe one of the hottest acts in a long time about 2 years ago going into the Cena WM match. Since that WM match with Cena, the entire Wyatt family has been a joke.

Duffman · May 30, 2016

Let's look at the clues

It better not be something like the return of Demon Kane. I hope it's more of a "thing" than a "person"

Duffman · May 30, 2016

Aw damn that last tease looks just like Kane in his Welders mack

Agree, totally don't get it. Bray could've easily done what UT did and just his feuding with someone elevated him even when UT didn't win. WM had to be embarrassing for them, there was literally no point for that shitty segment wasted.

Final tease for tonight

I'm seeing a lot of speculation online about this being related to the new WWE 2k17 game since pre-orders started today.

Angle is hyping something...

jeffro151 · May 30, 2016

Oh god damn you WWE. Wow, you can play as Goldberg in the new game. That's the big hype.

jeffro151 · May 30, 2016

Perfect time to heel Cena there, but nope.
