NOT MY BABY NIA!!!!! BASTARDS...AEW BOUND BABY!!!!

Mia had potential. WWE didn't use her right

They definely dropped the ball wit Keith and Karrion. They bumped them up too soon. They should've gotten longer reigns as champions on NXT.

B-Fab could've been HR manager. Easily.

Smh

No thank you on Nia in AEW

 

[Chi-Town B]

Had Keith Lee out in the ring growling like a dumbass and then told him and his woman to kick rocks. It's a cold business.

LMAO! AEW is sports entertainment #2. Don't let the WWE hate blind you. ROH, NWA, MLW and IMPACT are all more wrestling based, but do they get supported or talked about here? Nope... wrestling AND sports entertainment are dope!

i liked B-Fab. she wasn’t ready for in-ring action but she fit well in hit row. with more development, who knows. wasn’t even given a chance

i just noticed ember moon was cut too. another talented performer that the main womens division needed for months because they’re thin as shit. she had one of my favorite finishers too. she’ll definitely bounce back somewhere else

They all have elements of Sports entertainment, but the difference is the amount of it and how they do it. That Andrade vs Pac 2 match had more wrestling than the entire episode of Smackdown 2 weeks ago. Impact is a dead brand, NWA is a dying brand, ROH is dead, and MLW just brought in the LU people right?

Nick khan literally said they making the show for kids.

To me it looks like wwe has given up on trying to monopolize the market and only wants people they are going to actively use

This is good for the industry imo

 

[Duwop]

In an ideal world all the different promotions would have great prime time TV spots. Releasing under utilized but still highly recognized talent helps move in that direction

Yep. Huge mistake signing alot of talent to prevent them from going to AEW and not even use some of them regularly. They need to use NXT as a real true developmental brand. So guys like Gargano and O”Reilly (who are supposed to have a dark match tonight before smackdown) may be on their way off NXT

The E feeding the streets right now, hopefully existing or new feds can come in and capitalize

Right, what's the point of holding in to a high demand talent you don't wanna use. It's literally draining their budget, and not in the best interests of the talent. Everybody wants to shine, let them go where they can shine

 

[Chi-Town B]

It's always funny that Vince and his cronies put all the blame on the talent for not getting over instead of looking at themselves for giving them bad gimmicks and bad booking.

Yea this is good for the industry, but people are upset about WWE wasting people’s time signing Indy darlings just to waste years, buzz, and momentum with bad creative and catering. ROH’s current predicament can be traced back to WWE drying up the indies

 

[ColtWilliamsmusic]

I’ll say it again. NXTs whole purpose was to kill the indies. Where is hhh in all of this? These are his creations that are getting killed off. COVID may have low key helped save the industry as a whole
