I don't think anyone is taking it personally

I'd rather see a Velvateen dream who wint give u as high quality of a match, but sill deliver while being a much more entertaining character and promo

I agree, Dream has a WAY higher ceiling than Gargano

No one cares that you think Gargano is only good not great. But the thing that makes it so silly and your opinion so... Obscure? Is the fact that you stand by your statement of saying Gargano is only in the position he's in because he has a hot wife. We just want you to admit you were wrong with that statement... Because it's just not true. Lol

Again you're making it seem worse than what I said by adding superlatives. I didnt say the "only" reason he is where he is, but I said she elevated him. His character is boring, not one a normal guy can relate to, he's dull, how do you fix that, insert a hot wife, something every guy would want. let's look at all the other NXT champs, how many of them needed their wife or a beautiful woman on camera with them constantly? Correct me if I'm wrong as I did not watch the early years

Rollins
Bo
Neville
Zyn
KO
Balor
Joe
Nakamura
Roode
MCintyre
Almas
Black
Ciampa

The only one that comes close that you can make an argument for is Almas needing Zelina Vega, which is true as he needed her as a mouth piece, who just happens to be insanely attractive.

How many of those guys were married to an active wrestler on the same brand? Your arguement doesn't make sense.

Clearly you see in my post I mentioned "or a beautiful woman", the only other example is Almas with Zelina, which he desperatley needed her. But at least he has a valid excuse, English is not his first language, and Zelina just happens to be attractive. You insert Heyman, Konnan, Drake Maverick or whoever and he'd likely have hit the heights he did in NXT the same.

I'm 95% certain Vince won't push KUSHIDA very much. I still have hope for NXT pushing him, but as of now I'd consider it a disappointment.

I'm wondering if it's even the slightest possibility that they're thinking of turning NXT into a third brand instead of a "developmental" brand.

I've always wondered if NXT could get it's own TV deal. I doubt it, but it'd be cool if it happened.

Post #1913 » by **Stanford** » Fri Jun 14, 2019 5:37 pm

Unfortunately, I think Vince would be more hands on with NXT the minute it got a TV deal.

Yup.

NXT works because Vince keeps his hands off of it. The second he starts trying to meddle, NXT will suck like Raw and Smackdown.

Takeovers are still great, but I even feel like NXT's booking and TV storylines haven't been quite up to par the past year.

Celtsfan1980 · Post #1916 » by **Celtsfan1980** » Sun Jun 16, 2019 7:34 pm

Gargano takes the biggest beating in the Takeover matches, and I'd say nobody else comes close. Are the house show matches similar?

This 8 man tournament looks stacked. But SMH at these brutal name changes

iMoreland · Post #1918 » by **iMoreland** » Thu Jun 27, 2019 2:23 am

Angel Garza has star potential. Kushida is pretty damn lame, one of the most bleh "big" signings in recent memory.

Unpopular opinion: I am sick of Johnny Gargano in NXT

True but would you trust Vince with him. That sounds like a nightmare and/or release request waiting to happen. He needs to stay in NXT until HHH gets full control of booking.
