Checked out NXT for the first time. Seems fairly action packed with these younger guys in it. I'm disappointed that Rhino who is pushing saying "Gore" isn't using this as his theme lol
*EDIT*
Also managed to watch the last Raw episode on a rerun and it had some fun moments. Starting to get to know the wrestlers again. Neville has some great moves, though I thought his match was too short, though kinda found the Alex guy for trying to push some rip off of Hulkamania lol Brock is just great, I loved his rampage and just how slimy a guy Rollins in. A good spot or two from the Lucha Dragons.
It's also hilarious that Rollins as a heel gets more love than Cena who is a heal that gets booed. Is this gonna do anything to Cena? I understand he's had some issues for awhile now, but when one of your lead good guys is getting booed like crazy, doesn't that warrant a change? I mean, wasn't that what happened with Hogan back in the day? I've been watching the Monday Night War documentary and it seemed to be people were getting tired of Hogan's act, so he went heel and got lots of hype off of it. Not that I see Cena going heel lol

FYI: The Axel guy is Curtis Axel. He's Curt Henning's (Mr. Perfect) son.

I really like finding out who's the daughter or son of some classic wrestler now lol The Uso's are Rikishi's kids, I believe Flair's daughter is in there, and I'm sure there are more. Axel should totally bring back the "Perfect" gimmick instead of doing the Hulkamania thing he's fooling around with lol
Side note, I love Rollin's entrance theme. Not much for a sorta djent sounding metal song, but that's a hell of a song when you want to get people freaking hyped up lol
The other one I like so far is Bryan's. Sure it's just Flight of the Valkyries metal, but it's a real upbeat feeling song which is perfect for Bryan to come out to and get those YES! chants going.

My friend gave me access to his WWE Network account. Currently watching smackdown 1999.

Last year it looked as though WWE was finally after 12+ yrs actually going in a good direction. Sadly for me, since that Royal Rumble, good points have been few n far between. The divas division is a joke. I recently watched an embarrassing match where kidd/cesaro jobbed to d.bryans lame kicks for 10mins. A Superman punch (small jumping punch), Meathook clothesline (sloooow crap looking lariat), AA (Standing firemans carry) are some of the crappest signature moves that im now sick of seeing. More than anything seeing the misuse of actual talent in favor of people who are not on the same level in terms of ringwork really sucks.
TNA on the other hand have actually impressed me even though they still do stupid storyline changes far too frequently. The knockouts division is miles ahead of wwe though the current title holder is arguably the worse worker. An slightly improved roster in terms of numbers, the reinstatement of the TV title for the mid-card and it would be well on track.
Never thought Id say this few months ago but: TNA>WWE.
