After the first season of NXT I am glad WWE decided to go down the road and invest in NXT. It is unique like you say and we get to see the younger guys from FCW show off their skills.
@coffeebrown06 thats because u never watched him in japan or ROH, he's actually more entertaining to watch then Kurt Angle, because his technical skills are great, u just watched him in WWE
I hate NXT, they should hire the people normally I love Barrett I think he will win and I also like Otunga, Bryan and Gabriel everyone else can fuck off especially that idiot John Cena look alike
your wrong about saying that the wwe doesn't have to care about talent from the independent scene because this is where they get their talent from and i know it's all about paying your dues. But i think that the wwe make hard workers pay their dues and push talentless nobodies to the roof top which is pathetic. please don't take offense
NXT is better than the ruined ECW. Daniel Bryan is the main reason to watch the show, if he keeps his head up he will be huge, the next ric flair. Darren Young needs to stay in WWE or TNA will snap him up and ridicule Cena with him. It would be perfect for them to get Darren Y to be a Cena clone, even if WWE sues TNA for it, TNA will get the exposure. WWE have backed themselves into a corner here. ECW was great until WWE killed it off but NXT is a show to watch, lets hope it dont get stale.
First off, I was not putting you down, I was hipping you to true wrestling. NXT is not ment to be a show for you to enjoy or judge. NXT is about shutting down independent wrestling promotions and up and coming promotions. WWE is saying to you " we started like them, but now we make more money so F them." " Now, here is our crappy product you have no other choice EAT IT." Vince has mucked up wrestling for ever. Buying out your comp is not all ways the best move.
This is garbage! Get your wrestling knowledge up, you are falling. Note for you, using wrestling terms does not make your point correct it just makes you a smark. Get your wieght up. NXT is a indy show!
well it is a great concept and jus a little known fact Bryan Dainlson was in the wwe before nxt he could have stayed but he never was given a contract to smackdown or raw.
TNA iMPACT! that's the place to be, that's where it all happens... The action, the drama, the excitment, the thrills... TNA iMPACT! on Monday Nights 9/8c at SpikeTV head-to-head with that crappy show called RAW!
Watch TNA... Make the CHANGE!
Here is some of the wrestlers that you can see in TNA... RVD - Jeff Hardy - AJ STYLES - Mr Anderson - BRIAN KENDRICK - Mick Foley - HULK HOGAN - Eric Young - STING - Shannon Moore - RIC FLAIR - James Storm - ROBERT ROODE - Abyss - MCMG - Daniels...
Matt Hardy's Rookie is my fav, hated his attire in his first appearance, but in his second hed changed it, and his in ring ability is deffo the best of the lot! Utunga is my second choice as i think hes the most charismatic, and has a great entrance, taking his time to enter the ring, whilst the others all run down the ramp too eagerly! Daniels it seems tho is getting an unfair advantage, especially over some of the others such as cm punks rookie who hasnt had much airtime!
I think Otunga needs to milk his Harvard education and Marriage to Jennifer Hudson.. WE need a brotha as an Elitist heel. he could go far, Hell, he could even mention Obama in promos since theyre both from Chicago and both Harvard graduates. and that would bring some major heel heat.
2:00 in other words he's buried, i officially hate WWE now cuz they're burying great talent, Danielson just got his ass kicked tonight by Barrett, i want Danielson to be successful like Benoit, but it's not gonna happen X'(
Remember, you may know who he is but the majority of WWE fans don't. Even though he has immense wrestling ability WWE is pushing his as an underdog so everyone can root for him and he'll probably get revenge in the end
yeah i know, but it's like WWE lives under a rock, they don't acknowledge anything outside of the WWE, when everyone else KNOWS what these guys can do, I hope your right on the revenge bit... Other than that, i hope those dumb pg loving kids give him a chance, cuz he's too good to be outside of the WWE, 5 years in a row best technical wrestler, and 2007 MOY, and 3 time most outstanding wrestler WWE BETTER NOT IGNORE THAT!
They don't have to acknowledge anything outside of WWE though. It's a whole new world. All of that stuff means nothing in WWE. He still has to prove himself on a nation stage in front of millions of people. You might hate this, but Cole is right: wrestling in a high school gym doesn't qualify you to wrestle in arenas.
And I wouldn't call the kids dumb, they just like what they like. If they end up liking Daniel Bryan he'd have earned their approval like the rest
you know what? Your right (no grudge no sarcasm), the only thing i disagree with is the wrestling in the high school gym (i get what you're saying but), if Bryan Danielson went anywhere else, he'd be a main eventer in a heartbeat, including TNA, or any other big promotion outside the WWE, granted that makes those promotions look desperate but even WWE should acknowledge the fact they have a future HOF on their hands, they can't mess this up! Bryan doesn't need to prove ANYTHING!
WWE is a different playing field. He needs to be an overall good SUPERSTAR, not just a great wrestler. WWE has a lot more on the line when pushing people than other promotions do because WWE is so big.
Bryan isn't the first good technical wrestler WWE has had. Look at Shelton Benjamin, Jack Swagger, where are they now? Bryan has to display more than technical skill to get to the top. It may seem wrong, but that's just the way it is
again you're right, but all i hope is that he gets treated with respect like Benoit, WWE every now and then "needs" a good technical wrestler, first it was Bret Hart, then Owen, then Benoit, then Angle, now it can be Danielson, i don't want to argue anymore cuz lets face it, i look pretty weak now, but man i hope you're right on pushing his character, and god i hope he doesn't get buried like so many other legends outside the WWE
I totally agree. This was a really nice, calm, balanced review rather than just 'raaargh it's not ECW!'. I wondered what do you think about the pros they have got paired up with the rookies? I think there's a chance for some really, really interesting dynamics because you've got like, the reluctant mentor with CM Punk, the abusive (perhaps???) mentor with The Miz, a respectful mentor with R Truth etc, etc. I'm really looking forward to seeing the dynamics and story-lines this show could create!
hey jaydub what are your thoughts on tna so far with hulk hogan bishoff running the show because i hate wats going on it seems like it more talk and lesss wrestling and i think you should talk about other thing on your other channel like celeberties and stuff
I agree with everything that you said, and you also brought up a couple of points that I had never thought of, which I also agreed with. I only looked at the parts of NXT with Danielson in it, but I guess I'll check out Otunga since you made him out to be to be entertaining.
I thought it was ok. There was a couple of good matches. The match between DB & jericho was good. He really surprised me with the hold he put on jericho.
I don't really agree on david otunga though lol. Decent character but he needs to really work on it. He's gotten better from when I last saw him. His in ring ability needs help too. But he is quick for his size.
Brilliant new show. For too long the WWE has brought in new guys with little or no fanfare, thrown them to the wolves on Smackdown or RAW without any real opportunity to show who they are and what they can do, then dropped them when no one ended up giving a damn.
NXT is giving their younger stars a stage of their own, time in the spotlight and in the ring to get over, and that can only be a good thing.
BEST IN WORLD! BEST IN WORLD! BEST IN WORLD! WWE has to be tough on DB because he is already over with so many. If DB is the best in the world (he is) then he can overcome any adversity. HAving Michale Cole and MAt striker bury him gives DB the challange that will make him shine. I think DB will shine as one of the most intersting FACES WWE has seen in a long time
agreed lol he is a lame that is to lazy to look into the classics Bryan Danielson matches he has been apart of...he is the best nxt rookie i am just sadden kaval/senshi/low ki...isn't one of the rookies just imagine a kaval vs. daniel bryan match on nxt.
A lame that you're continually watching, so thanks!
His past means little to nothing for his current position. Why the hell do I have to watch old matches when I already know he's a good wrestler? That's not the issue I have with him.
What, did he all-of a sudden get a boring look when he came to WWE? Is "classic Bryan Danielson" more charismatic than Daniel Bryan. If not, what's the point?
its fine you rather have a person who can't wrestle but may have mic skills than a person who can wrestle but lack in the mic skills department...it is what separates a pro wrestling fan from a sports entertainment fan...
well now i know why you hate danielson so much lol mix is your second dude in your top 10 now it makes perfect sense...wwe sheep lol funny thing is wwe is my favorite company but you ride or die for em probably defend all there lame shit to the end
That's the exact problem with people like you. Somebody can say one negative thing about someone and you say they hate them.I don't hate Daniel Bryan. Don't love him, just want him to improve his mic skills and show more of a personality
imo they just need to let bryan danielson loose and put on some great matches to bring some legitimacy back to wwe wrestling he is basically there to fill in the void benoit left...i don't want danielson to have a stupid gimmick or to over act on the mic just let him go out there and put on 5 star matches...also danielson not having charisma is a big misconception actually in the ring he has loads of charisma he knows how to get a reaction out of the crowd
Ok you know what beat. Really ! I'm sick of people like you bashing Professional Wrestling . I do "REAL" wrestling and appreciate and Prefer Professional wrestler.
Uh no, why do you think Bruno Sammartino, WWEs biggest name in the 70s wants nothing to do with todays era? Because of too much theatrics and too many other things that are nonrelevant towards the actual wrestling. That's why there are no new stars and that's why the product can't evolve. Raw is like the 80s early 90s version of what it use to be. They are stuck in a time machine.
Wrestling wouldn't be as big as it is today had it not been for people with those theatrics. Ask the average fan who Bruno is, how many do you think know who he is. Now ask who's Hulk Hogan.
Bruno Sammartino is bitter, he's the one stuck in a time machine. He doesn't understand that the wrestling business has moved past his era.
The problem is wwe doesn't balance the weight of entertainment and wrestling. Where are the technical style wrestlers? Where are the guys that show this can be an art, there are no artists. Why'd you think they brought Danielson in the first place?
That still doesn't change the fact that he has to improve in the charisma department. You all keep talking about his wrestling ability when I already know he has that covered.
I never said he didn't but according to you he seems that he couldn't. You talk down on him so much that you thought there would be no chance of him making it. It's too early to judge at this point.
Well my intent wasn't to talk down to him, just to get the message out to his fans that success on the independent scene doesn't automatically equal success in WWE.
Jericho says it best in his book and I believe it's true. It doesn't matter what you have accomplished in the indy scene because the WWE is a whole different animal.
I totally agree putting Danielson with the Miz was a good idea because if anybody can give him that charisma it is Miz who is a freakin' cinderella story himself many people would of bet he'd be gone by now but here he is the unified and usa champion. Danielson could really learn something from him,
On March 8, it's on BROTHER! TNA will start going Live on every Monday right in wwe's face, iMPACT! is going head-to-head with raw on every Monday, starting March 8! And in the main event on iMPACT! it will be oldschool man, when Hulk Hogan is facing hid long-time nemesis Ric Flair in a tag team match!
TNA iMPACT! Live at Mondays, starting March 8 at SPIKE TV!
Most of these wrestlers come from a develomental roster near where I live and is called FCW. It's the rookies of WWE. And it's good to see young stars getting a chance to do something with their careers. NXT was better then I thought it was going to be. The only rookie I'm worried about is Heath Slater, he is too cocky. But that did win him FCW championship. Anyway great segment jaydub
David Otunga has some work to do as far as his in-ring work goes, but I will agree about him being somebody to keep an eye on. I don't think he's QUITE ready yet for the main roster, but give him a little more time to work on his in-ring stuff and he'll be a force to be reckoned with. My top 4 picks are Danielson, Otunga (because his connections are the main reason for that), Slater, and Gabriel (based on his FCW work).
What you said about Jericho's message isn't different than any other new wrestler buildup that WWE hasn't botched on, with huge exception to their work on Braden Walker. And regarding the buzz behind Danielson and Miz, it HAS been building at least a week before the show and when they introduced the pro/rookie pairing! Sure they may give everyone decent amount of time to develop but to say they have something for him now since its the first ep is really stupid.
After watching NXT, I beleive Daniel Bryan and David Otunga are the ones who will be upcoming stars soon.Bryan was given a a hugh early push by working a match with a World Champion and despite only wreslting for like a minute, Otunga looks like he has the whole package.
I saw only a couple of matches of the show, and i feel that miz shouldn't be considered as a pro being the fact that daniel bryan wrestles way better than miz and gave chris jericho a run 4 his money...the commentary is crazy cuz it's all conflict debates and it hypes the show up even more...ima watch nxt next week 2 see if my opinion increase in positivity
ive notice also the commntary.. love the debate cole(pros) josh(rookies) this is good.. and the last match..was great.. i think some of the rookies act fast coz daniel is way ahead of them :D
i appreciate this show now...like when they took ecw off the air(even tho i don't watch it like that) i was like, "wat the fuck is nxt?" then when i see the commercial i was like,"ok...is this going to be like tough enough or something like that?" but now that i saw it, i understand the concept of it and it's very entertaining, i was shocked it did good on the first week. lol
i didn't like it at all i expected it to be kinda like the Ultimate Fighter like they train and at the end of the show a 1 on 1 match who ever loses goes home tht would've been so much better
hope WWE goes to MSG an motreal soon the fans will be so amped up for the NXT show ith the talents they have on the roster especially bryan danielson and justin gabriel/angel
yea gotta agree with Jaydub. I like Danielson's wrestling but he has the personality of someone who is working a 30 count crowd in a gym. I know cuz I attend small local shows and have been to major WWE shows. I like what they doing with Desmond Wolf, well, before Hogan showed up that is.
I was freaking impressed by David Otunga, he really made me hate him. Reminds me of every single spoiled asshole I've ever met. He is probably going to win it too because of his girlfriend.
i agree that WWE NXT Is An Excellent Show! Gatta love how michael cole started hating on Daniel Bryan right away I herd that was real about what cole was saying he was realy pissed off cuz daniel disrespected the miz not only the miz but a pro wrestler I just gatta give this show 5 stars!
Why are you preaching shit we already know? We know WWE doesn't knowlege any accomplishments outside of them. Did you see that spinebuster Otunga did? It was awful, though I'm not judging him over one move. Micheal Cole is nothing but a puppet and a bitch boy for Vince.
In addition you got to give credit to Jericho showing how unselfish he is. He didn't had to do the match with Bryan, he did it because he believe he can do big things. Unlike you Jaydub who just have a big mouth. Lol.
And Daniel Bryan has a long way to go. Good wrestlers with sub-par mic skills come a dime a dozen. WWE has a couple there already. If Bryan doesn't improve he'd be the next "coulda woulda shoulda-been"
Still doesn't change the fact that he was great on NXT. He got all of you smark-asses throwing hissy fits at him, lmao. It's always an accomplishment when somebody can take you all down a peg or two
What was so great about him? He's still the same puppet who botches easy words, just because he talk crap about Bryan we supsose to make him as some badass heel commentator? Still doesn't change the fact he still sucks. I'm not even a big fan of Danielson, more of a McGuinness guy.
Bottom line is that if they weren't high on him they wouldn't have him on most of the show, and have an actual match against the WHC. Everyone knows that he doesn't have the best mic skills, but did Bret Hart? did Chris Beniot? He just needs an image that can carry his character. They could call him the American Dragon if they choose to.
Is this the same era that Bret became known in? No. Is this the same era that Chris Benoit became known in? No, some things have changed
What they're doing with him is capitalizing on his fame in the independents to bring in new viewers for WWE. They see he has pure talent, so they feature him on NXT to either give him room to grow or give him room self destruct. Then it will be no one's fault but his own if he isn't made into a superstar
Doesn't matter what era it is, he just needs portray his strengths to cover his weakness, using the slogan "Tap or I'll make you snap" is a example of covering his lack of creativity on the mic.
you a lame...look up bryan danielson matches he isn't just a "good wrestler" he is arguably the greatest in the world right now lol smarten up lol Benoit had a great run and didn't need a gimmick or mic skills...sure danielson needs better mic skills but he has more promise than any of those other rookies.
Daniel Bryan is a lame. He has a plain, boring look. At first glance all of the rookies stand out except for him.
And so what if you think he's the best in the world? Wrestling ability will only get you so far, because WWE is looking for SUPERSTARS. You can talk shit about that if you want, but no matter what you say they've perfected that formula and are number one because of it
I'm sorry, I didn't know you work for Human Resources under Vince. To me, Bryan is the best in North America when it comes to putting on quality matches plus he knows how to play to the crowd, go look at some of his earlier works from PWG, NOAH and ROH.
WWE perfected their formula? That's a laugh. Then explain to me why they have trouble creating breakout SUPERSTARS from their own farming territory and have looked towards reputable indies such as ROH for BETTER QUALITY talents?
Do you know who Hulk Hogan is? The Rock, Stone Cold? Yeah, of course you do.
And I don't need to see anything from Daniel Bryan's past. I saw what I needed on Tuesday. He's a good wrestler, but he looks boring, bland, plain and average. No matter how good you think he is he'll always have a low ceiling of success
hey jaydub you think you know a lot about wrestling just because you sit there and talk crap about it, but you dont know a shit if u dont know any work from the past of bryan danielson (thats his name if u didnt knew it) you dont know wrestling at all if u say that he is boring, you must love to be entertain, i can see that cause u r wearing a dx cap so i dnt think u should be watchin NXT because 'rookies' r 'boring' like u say, and by the way nobody cares what u think so stop making stupis vids
Which was key to Rock's success because he decided to carve his own niche without having his family name spouted week in, week out.
e) If last Tuesday was all it took for you to pass judgment on Danielson, then I say you're not allowed to have an opinion just because you have a rinky-dink "show" on Youtube.
All of what you said was your opinion, which obviously the people calling shots in WWE don't share. Neither do the fans for that matter. Cena and Orton are probably the two biggest stars to emerge from this new generation.
Oh you say I'm not allowed to have a "show" on YouTube? Damn, I guess I have to pack up and leave, right? lmfao! Fail
Evidently, a majority of the WWE fanbase are ignorant and clueless. WWE is deteriorating right now because NO ONE has come close to breaking the bar set by the top guys 10 years back. Hell, even Stone Cold's record of merchandise sales is still intact and if you've noticed, the only draw WM26 will have is Taker-Michaels II which pretty much sums up how dismal their state is in currently.
No, son. I'm calling those who fail to see something which is so damn obvious right in front of their eyes the ignorant and clueless. Take you, for example. You come on here, play yourself out to be this so-called "smark" of wrestling, but only use the WWE for your referral, case in point your assessment of Danielson. That's what makes me sick to my stomach.
And wrestling was a much bigger deal back then because back then, Vince actually gave a damn about what the fans wanted.
yeah your right bryan's gotta pay his dues

WWE is a different playing field. He needs to be an overall good SUPERSTAR, not just a great wrestler. WWE has a lot more on the line when pushing people than other promotions do because WWE is so big.
Bryan isn't the first good technical wrestler WWE has had. Look at Shelton Benjamin, Jack Swagger, where are they now? Bryan has to display more than technical skill to get to the top. It may seem wrong, but that's just the way it is

I think there's a chance for some really, really interesting dynamics because you've got like, the reluctant mentor with CM Punk, the abusive (perhaps???) mentor with The Miz, a respectful mentor with R Truth etc, etc. I'm really looking forward to seeing the dynamics and story-lines this show could create!

hey jaydub what are your thoughts on tna so far with hulk hogan bishoff running the show because i hate wats going on it seems like it more talk and lesss wrestling and i think you should talk about other thing on your other channel like celeberties and stuff

I thought it was ok. There was a couple of good matches. The match between DB & jericho was good. He really surprised me with the hold he put on jericho.
I don't really agree on david otunga though lol. Decent character but he needs to really work on it. He's gotten better from when I last saw him. His in ring ability needs help too. But he is quick for his size.

Brilliant new show. For too long the WWE has brought in new guys with little or no fanfare, thrown them to the wolves on Smackdown or RAW without any real opportunity to show who they are and what they can do, then dropped them when no one ended up giving a damn.
NXT is giving their younger stars a stage of their own, time in the spotlight and in the ring to get over, and that can only be a good thing.

BEST IN WORLD! BEST IN WORLD! BEST IN WORLD! WWE has to be tough on DB because he is already over with so many. If DB is the best in the world (he is) then he can overcome any adversity. HAving Michale Cole and MAt striker bury him gives DB the challange that will make him shine. I think DB will shine as one of the most intersting FACES WWE has seen in a long time

thegoldenhero 2 years ago
A lame that you're continually watching, so thanks!
His past means little to nothing for his current position. Why the hell do I have to watch old matches when I already know he's a good wrestler? That's not the issue I have with him.
What, did he all-of a sudden get a boring look when he came to WWE? Is "classic Bryan Danielson" more charismatic than Daniel Bryan. If not, what's the point?
jaydub8907 2 years ago
its fine you rather have a person who can't wrestle but may have mic skills than a person who can wrestle but lack in the mic skills department...it is what separates a pro wrestling fan from a sports entertainment fan...

And there are more "sports entertainment" fans than there are "pro wrestling" so it is fine
jaydub8907 2 years ago
well now i know why you hate danielson so much lol mix is your second dude in your top 10 now it makes perfect sense...wwe sheep lol funny thing is wwe is my favorite company but you ride or die for em probably defend all there lame shit to the end
thegoldenhero 2 years ago
That's the exact problem with people like you. Somebody can say one negative thing about someone and you say they hate them.I don't hate Daniel Bryan. Don't love him, just want him to improve his mic skills and show more of a personality
jaydub8907 2 years ago
imo they just need to let bryan danielson loose and put on some great matches to bring some legitimacy back to wwe wrestling he is basically there to fill in the void benoit left...i don't want danielson to have a stupid gimmick or to over act on the mic just let him go out there and put on 5 star matches...also danielson not having charisma is a big misconception actually in the ring he has loads of charisma he knows how to get a reaction out of the crowd

Wrestling has been like that for years. Nothing new
jaydub8907 2 years ago
Uh no, why do you think Bruno Sammartino, WWEs biggest name in the 70s wants nothing to do with todays era? Because of too much theatrics and too many other things that are nonrelevant towards the actual wrestling. That's why there are no new stars and that's why the product can't evolve. Raw is like the 80s early 90s version of what it use to be. They are stuck in a time machine.
24varner 2 years ago
Wrestling wouldn't be as big as it is today had it not been for people with those theatrics. Ask the average fan who Bruno is, how many do you think know who he is. Now ask who's Hulk Hogan.
Bruno Sammartino is bitter, he's the one stuck in a time machine. He doesn't understand that the wrestling business has moved past his era.
jaydub8907 2 years ago
The problem is wwe doesn't balance the weight of entertainment and wrestling. Where are the technical style wrestlers? Where are the guys that show this can be an art, there are no artists. Why'd you think they brought Danielson in the first place?
24varner 2 years ago
exactly! someone gets it
thegoldenhero 2 years ago
That still doesn't change the fact that he has to improve in the charisma department. You all keep talking about his wrestling ability when I already know he has that covered.
jaydub8907 2 years ago
I never said he didn't but according to you he seems that he couldn't. You talk down on him so much that you thought there would be no chance of him making it. It's too early to judge at this point.
24varner 2 years ago
Well my intent wasn't to talk down to him, just to get the message out to his fans that success on the independent scene doesn't automatically equal success in WWE.
jaydub8907 2 years ago
Jericho says it best in his book and I believe it's true. It doesn't matter what you have accomplished in the indy scene because the WWE is a whole different animal.

exactly he came across as if danielson was incapable of improving that is the only reason why i went back in forth with him
thegoldenhero 2 years ago
I totally agree putting Danielson with the Miz was a good idea because if anybody can give him that charisma it is Miz who is a freakin' cinderella story himself many people would of bet he'd be gone by now but here he is the unified and usa champion. Danielson could really learn something from him,

Most of these wrestlers come from a develomental roster near where I live and is called FCW. It's the rookies of WWE. And it's good to see young stars getting a chance to do something with their careers. NXT was better then I thought it was going to be. The only rookie I'm worried about is Heath Slater, he is too cocky. But that did win him FCW championship. Anyway great segment jaydub
crazydball 2 years ago
David Otunga has some work to do as far as his in-ring work goes, but I will agree about him being somebody to keep an eye on. I don't think he's QUITE ready yet for the main roster, but give him a little more time to work on his in-ring stuff and he'll be a force to be reckoned with. My top 4 picks are Danielson, Otunga (because his connections are the main reason for that), Slater, and Gabriel (based on his FCW work).
SeanStrife 2 years ago
What you said about Jericho's message isn't different than any other new wrestler buildup that WWE hasn't botched on, with huge exception to their work on Braden Walker. And regarding the buzz behind Danielson and Miz, it HAS been building at least a week before the show and when they introduced the pro/rookie pairing! Sure they may give everyone decent amount of time to develop but to say they have something for him now since its the first ep is really stupid.

After watching NXT, I beleive Daniel Bryan and David Otunga are the ones who will be upcoming stars soon.Bryan was given a a hugh early push by working a match with a World Champion and despite only wreslting for like a minute, Otunga looks like he has the whole package.
Itshowitsdone 2 years ago 2
I saw only a couple of matches of the show, and i feel that miz shouldn't be considered as a pro being the fact that daniel bryan wrestles way better than miz and gave chris jericho a run 4 his money...the commentary is crazy cuz it's all conflict debates and it hypes the show up even more...ima watch nxt next week 2 see if my opinion increase in positivity

In addition you got to give credit to Jericho showing how unselfish he is. He didn't had to do the match with Bryan, he did it because he believe he can do big things. Unlike you Jaydub who just have a big mouth. Lol.

And Daniel Bryan has a long way to go. Good wrestlers with sub-par mic skills come a dime a dozen. WWE has a couple there already. If Bryan doesn't improve he'd be the next "coulda woulda shoulda-been"

jaydub8907 2 years ago
Bottom line is that if they weren't high on him they wouldn't have him on most of the show, and have an actual match against the WHC. Everyone knows that he doesn't have the best mic skills, but did Bret Hart? did Chris Beniot? He just needs an image that can carry his character. They could call him the American Dragon if they choose to.
24varner 2 years ago
Is this the same era that Bret became known in? No. Is this the same era that Chris Benoit became known in? No, some things have changed
What they're doing with him is capitalizing on his fame in the independents to bring in new viewers for WWE. They see he has pure talent, so they feature him on NXT to either give him room to grow or give him room self destruct. Then it will be no one's fault but his own if he isn't made into a superstar
jaydubshow 2 years ago
Doesn't matter what era it is, he just needs portray his strengths to cover his weakness, using the slogan "Tap or I'll make you snap" is a example of covering his lack of creativity on the mic.

jaydubshow 2 years ago
you a lame...look up bryan danielson matches he isn't just a "good wrestler" he is arguably the greatest in the world right now lol smarten up lol Benoit had a great run and didn't need a gimmick or mic skills...sure danielson needs better mic skills but he has more promise than any of those other rookies.
thegoldenhero 2 years ago
Daniel Bryan is a lame. He has a plain, boring look. At first glance all of the rookies stand out except for him.
And so what if you think he's the best in the world? Wrestling ability will only get you so far, because WWE is looking for SUPERSTARS. You can talk shit about that if you want, but no matter what you say they've perfected that formula and are number one because of it
jaydub8907 2 years ago
@jaydub8907
I'm sorry, I didn't know you work for Human Resources under Vince. To me, Bryan is the best in North America when it comes to putting on quality matches plus he knows how to play to the crowd, go look at some of his earlier works from PWG, NOAH and ROH.
WWE perfected their formula? That's a laugh. Then explain to me why they have trouble creating breakout SUPERSTARS from their own farming territory and have looked towards reputable indies such as ROH for BETTER QUALITY talents?
toophatpoyo 2 years ago
Do you know who Hulk Hogan is? The Rock, Stone Cold? Yeah, of course you do.
And I don't need to see anything from Daniel Bryan's past. I saw what I needed on Tuesday. He's a good wrestler, but he looks boring, bland, plain and average. No matter how good you think he is he'll always have a low ceiling of success

hey jaydub you think you know a lot about wrestling just because you sit there and talk crap about it, but you dont know a shit if u dont know any work from the past of bryan danielson (thats his name if u didnt knew it) you dont know wrestling at all if u say that he is boring, you must love to be entertain, i can see that cause u r wearing a dx cap so i dnt think u should be watchin NXT because 'rookies' r 'boring' like u say, and by the way nobody cares what u think so stop making stupis vids

Haha, you're a funny guy ;). I'm talking about NOW. What have these so-called SUPERSTARS done that can be deemed on par with those of the past.
a) Cena's an alright match psychologist. That's it. He can't cut a worthy promo.
b) Orton's a Jake Roberts/Pillman wannabe.
c) MVP's only memorable moment was the inferno match he had with Kane about 2 years back.
d) The whole Legacy storyline is lame. Nobody wants to see some 2nd rate boys and wrestlers pawn of their daddies name.
toophatpoyo 2 years ago
@jaydub8907
Which was key to Rock's success because he decided to carve his own niche without having his family name spouted week in, week out.
e) If last Tuesday was all it took for you to pass judgment on Danielson, then I say you're not allowed to have an opinion just because you have a rinky-dink "show" on Youtube.
toophatpoyo 2 years ago
All of what you said was your opinion, which obviously the people calling shots in WWE don't share. Neither do the fans for that matter. Cena and Orton are probably the two biggest stars to emerge from this new generation.

Evidently, a majority of the WWE fanbase are ignorant and clueless. WWE is deteriorating right now because NO ONE has come close to breaking the bar set by the top guys 10 years back. Hell, even Stone Cold's record of merchandise sales is still intact and if you've noticed, the only draw WM26 will have is Taker-Michaels II which pretty much sums up how dismal their state is in currently.
BTW, saying fail at the end of your post is fail.
