LoneWolf&Subs Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) It’s kinda funny thinking back a few of weeks ago, Scott Taylor basically saw the writing on the wall, and got the fuck outta Dodge. That probably cost him unemployment, though, right? Edited January 7, 2022 by LoneWolf&Subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 He got employment though, he worked GCW last weekend. So did Jeff Jarrett, of all people. He attacked Effy, and now they're having a match soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When’s the last time we’ve seen Paul & Stephanie together in public? No need to speculate that. Edited January 7, 2022 by The Natural 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf&Subs Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) Just something that came up in a dream. I think this ultimately stems from something that happened in 2015-16. The thing that brought Shane McMahon back into the fold, and looked like he was maybe looking to curry favor with his dad to give him a second chance. Like probably all the way back then Vince was thinking “I don’t really trust my son-in-law with the business anymore, and maybe this shouldn’t be a family owned, and operated company in the future”. That’s the time when I knew something weird was happening behind the scenes, and we only got a glimpse of it through these weird turns onscreen(and a little off screen in the sheetz) that led to what happened yesterday. This whole family drama(1999-2022) would make for one hell of a book. Edited January 7, 2022 by LoneWolf&Subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technico Support Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Is HHH still out on medical leave for his heart condition? Add "destroy an executive's (who is a family member!) whole department and eliminate any possible chance he has to advance in the company while's he's healing from a life threatening heart issue" to your Evil Shit This Company Has Done list. It blows my mind that we've gone from "oh man I can't wait for HHH to get promoted so he can fire Kevin Dunn" to "HHH has less power than the guy who makes Vince's steak wraps" in less than a year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he was healthy enough to do an interview with NBC Nightly News in regards to all the NIL deals the WWE is doing Meltzer seemed to indicate that that is the one thing he is doing now - being the corporate face of those deals 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) 8 hours ago, Ultimo Necro said: From Vince / Nick Khans point of view, looking at it from purely business view, they will think “did old NXT uncover a Rock, Cena, Lesnar level talent? No. Was it costing a lot to run? Yes.” So the recent decisions do make sense. But the thing is, yes, they've had the "Rocks/Cenas/Lesnars", they've just turned right around and cut them off at the knees the second they've moved to the main roster. And technically you could argue a case for the Shield. Edited January 7, 2022 by nate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technico Support Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 You can't gauge a developmental territory on how many once-a-generation talents they pumped out. That's absurd. "Oh, they didn't give us the next Austin. Tear it down!" And as @nate intimated, we have no idea whether NXT generated massive stars or not because WWE books everyone into the trash heap. Keep in mind, every megastar of the past few decades succeeded despite WWE's best efforts to derail them. WWE didn't make those people and in most cases, they got in their way. We have no idea how many Steve Austins came up from NXT and never got past Ringmaster status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirSmUgly Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I still think this company could have had their own little version of the All Japan women of the '80s (in the sense of drawing young women and girls to the product) based around Charlotte/Becky/Sasha/Bayley and other key pieces like Asuka. To me, that is the biggest missed opportunity of NXT. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought NXT would have started a "Tag Team Revolution " like they did with Women's division when Sasha, Becky and Charlotte moved to the main roster you had American Alpha and the Revival headlining shows. I thought they would have leveled out the tag team division the same way the women's division is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
