Giving someone a spot on your 5/6 match show every few months is not pushing someone to the top, especially when for the past 3 years NXT has become a revolving door of "the next indy guy we signed gets a title run"

You seemed to have taken personal offense to them not pushing this one guy. It's not like NXT is hurting for stars at the moment.
And not giving them that spot isn't "doing nothing with them"
Nothing wrong with roster depth. With the current setup NXT needs to keep replenishing talent for when they're called up to either Raw or Smackdown. Plus if they have him, no one else can have him.
me: they signed Keith Lee when he was red hot and didn't capitalize on it, he's just a guy in NXT
you: oh so you're mad that they aren't pushing this one guy?
just sayin' folks

Like how many more guys are out there to get when you can't get any WWE guys or any NJPW guys
I think Shirai or Sane is winning the title. It seems pretty obvious people are hankering for a Shirai/Sane feud on NXT soonish. And Bianca's momentum has almost completely stalled out. Not to mention she's still pretty green in some aspects. Not to mention if they stick with the five match formula at NXT Takeover: San Jose, then there likely won't be an NXT Women's Title match if the Women's Tag Titles are defended. I can see Kairi or Io entering the match as the NXT Women's Champion if so.
I don't think they are calling Kairi up before Summerslam. The fact that they didn't even have Bianca go over her at this set of tapings should probably indicate they plan to keep her down there for a bit longer.
Holy shit, awesome card.
So did they end up stripping Ciampa of the title due to injury?
On the upside, kind of forcing them to make their own stars which would be good in the long run.
Coward STARDOM not bringing Sumire Natsu to America but wisely leaving the children at home, smart
Dude WWE spends like millions on that and has like a dedicated academy and still doesn't find all that much. AJ was right: the WWE locker room is just the indies lol
I don't know if she has a different gimmick as a singles worker but she's in a very FnP tag called Team Sea Stars
Shane finally gets the love and appreciation from a father figure in his life. Vince tries to kill Miz dad before Shane saves his life. Vince wants his son back. Shane wants his real father to care about him as much as his surrogate. Miz wants his dad to love him like he loves shane. Miz dad just wishes he could go back home.
The will suspend Miz's dad above the ring in a ladder match. First person to do a sick jump off the ladder and kill themselves wins. A stipulation set by the dastardly Shane, his advantage. Vince spends the entire match trying to prevent shane from jumping and miz has to work up the courage to do a sick flip to win his dad's indie heart back from shane.
Has the potential to be the best Takeover card in fucking ages, and Takeovers are always great to begin with.
Gunner is the only one of them I haven't already forgotten.
yoooo these are great. Okada's deadpan response to asking what performing at MSG means to you "why do people care about MSG? what's happened there?" also he changed his pants because there was too much backlash and he's happy people are still talking about his WK entrance. legend.
Ospreay and Tana are more respectful to the building and its history with pro wrestling. Tana in particular is really interesting. He says he's going to be retiring the high fly flow to protect his knees. But he remembers that Fujinami first performed the dragon suplex at MSG, so perhaps he will have a new move to debut at MSG as well?
Really hoping Tana gets a high profile singles match.
why do people care about the tokyo dome? what's happened there?
Becky called the audience "lads" yesterday and I was weirded out because she doesn't normally say that but then I realized I don't have a clue what she actually talks like and only know what the script says she talks like.
Even his NXT theme is trash. He is one of the most charismatic indie stars they have signed and he is being wasted.
Also, enjoy Pagano botches:
Watching Ricochet and Black on NXT vs main roster and it seems so obvious they're holding back on the main roster.
They're doing the same match twice a week with barely any changes. They're just getting over their signature spots at this point.
For those with subscriptions to Wrestling Observer there is an incredible podcast with Dave, Garrett and Mike Tenay from March 10th about Dick Beyer aka The Destroyer.
Just an incredible conversation. Can't recommend it enough

I still can't believe that show is happening
yooooooooooooooooooo that cutter
Well at least she didn't debut and lose a push
Meltzer says that Gargano's call-up status right now is "uncertain"
Also says Kairi is "on the list" to be called up. Now based off prior knowledge of people being "on the list", that doesn't necessarily mean she's coming up right now, but definitely within the next six months or so.
