Dream irritates me slightly because he's so loving good, but he never closes his mouth. EC3 deserves the 5 star just for his little ploy at the beginning trying to get Lars and Dain to fight. This was a really good NXT and I like wrestling.

rovert posted:Yeah Nixon made her debut tonight Glad to see her back. She seems much more relaxed and happier to be there as well. "Normal" people ease up so not to get injured before their big break, but she was doing really stupid poo poo in her matches towards the end. I kind of worried she was hoping to get injured and have an excuse not to go. Also she was in super shape for her January Stardom tour, but by the time she left for Florida she had put on quite a bit of weight. Looks terrific in that picture though.

VJeff posted:I feel similarly about AoP. I thought those guys should've held the belts for a year before they even THOUGHT about bringing them up. I know they pretty much had nothing left to do in NXT, but I still feel like it was a little early for them. "had nothing left to do" describes most of the WWE's main roster. Daniel Bryan has: held the World Heavyweight Title held the WWE Heavyweight Title held the Intercontinental Title held the United States Title held the Tag Team Title won Money in the Bank main evented Wrestlemania. Technically, he should leave since there's nothing left for him to do.

Velveteen shouldn't be called up until after he and Ricochet have their inevitable 5 star feud.

Since I posted in the wrong thread, I'll just say that I really hope they give Dream at least another 6 months to a year in NXT to develop.

They might call up Dream. They did call up Drew McIntyre (in case you missed it)

Rarity posted:They might call up Dream. They did call up Drew McIntyre (in case you missed it) Drew is a different case, though. Dream has tons of potential, but when he's not in there with a top-tier pro, he gets pretty nervous and shaky. He's a dude with enough athletic prowess and raw talent that he's easy to carry, and has the potential to be far better than even that, but McIntyre is nearly a decade older and has that much more experience. Drew was called up to the main roster at about the same age Patrick Clark is now, and that was 110% a mistake in hindsight.

Dream needs to be on NXT for at least another year, preferably more. He's immensely talented and amazing but he's also incredibly young and green and there is no need to rush him.

What’s a good Dream match to see the potential y’all see? I’m not being cynical I want to like him but  The first match I saw was him and kassius. He was better in the ladder match but everyone killed it except EC3 who made up by taking all the punishment

He didn't really do anything but jobber squashes before that, but the Black feud and match really showed off his potential as a total-package performer.

Dream and Black is just a feud that worked on every level, from the promos to the work to the booking. It's NXT in its purest form. Put your guys in a position to succeed and let them make magic.
