BIG OVER
College Slice
I wonder how much of the production miscues were due to it being done at Full Sail/using Full Sail students rather than moving one of their tv trucks/production people down to Orlando. A lot of the audio mistakes felt so alien to how WWE usually runs and with Dunn there (he's poo poo at directing a show, but he knows how to be technically proficient and clean) I'm drawing blanks.

- speaking of Hogan...how horrible was it that we were forced to endure approx 48% of his 1980s entrance video footage? It felt like either a massive technical error or a contractual obligation to Hogan

The only thing I could figure about this is that USA was thinking it would snare people flipping by who aren't really wrestling fans but know Hogan.

- massive foreshadowing: the 2 guys probably most likely to win it all are ZZ & Patrick? Why? Charisma and appreciation for the business. While others went to piss away their opportunities at the bar nearby, these 2 guys hung back and WATCHED PRO WRESTLING. Like students of the game. Or at least like one underage guy who had nothing better to do (even though it's his 1st time out of state).

- Brazilian chick is the hottest and snarkiest but she is keeping it 100: stop crying and go home if you're homesick. You being here and acting that way robbesd some other contestant of the chance at THEIR dreams. You think the tatted up chick who was medically disqualified is sitting at home NOT rooting against this cry baby? I was aghast. Gabi may be an rear end in a top hat but she's not wrong.
Just to comment here, ZZ's from Louisiana, so he's already seen anything Florida has to offer, so it's not like going out is going to be a big dead.

I think Dianna is the hottest, but I'm not going to pretend I don't have a thing for curvy blondes. I can definitely see her getting a contract, regardless, though, yeah.

Next time you see Chris Jericho on this show, listen to how he pronounces "WWE" (or go back and watch his parts of the episode). I've seriously never heard anyone say it faster and smoother than he does. It's like he makes it a one-syllable word.

It's like the technicians and production team are the students at that university who are AUDITIONING to work on NXT.

Yeah, that's literally what Full Sail is doing with WWE. NXT production staff is generally student/alumni work hired straight out of the university.

Oh my god, Tough Talk is a million times better than the show. They just shat on the entire thing for half an hour and the Miz is so much better without a script.

My god this show is horrible. The format just makes it so hard to watch. I want to see these people try to learn stuff in the ring and fail miserably. Not bicker at each other about who can sell out an arena based on a loving cardio exercise.

And considering how frequently people have gotten contracts and not won the the thing like Cameron of all people, and that Andy won and they did jack poo poo with him, the long elimination process, rules, and fan voting just seem so pointless. WWE will sign whoever they want.

The first episode also didn't do anybody any favors to get us to like any of the contestants.

It really makes me miss how drat entertaining it was to just see Austin talk trash to the bottom 3 and watch them dig deep holes for themselves. It's why someone can mention Melina vs Alicia Fox and know exactly what I'm talking about.

Is there any good reason for the live parts of Tough Enough? I don't really get it at all, I prefer it just being a standard reality show format.

Is it so people can vote live with the show, I guess? For that brief 90 seconds they took votes lol

The votes don't matter when they'll just offer whoever they want a contract and fire the winner.

I'm also not going to sit through that poo poo live with commercials just to vote.

Sara isn't standing out much which is perfect because reality shows are always won by someone who hung in the middle of the pack until the last third. She has a good strategy!
