2 new people made their tv debut in NXT this week. Kalisto(formerly Samuray Del Sol) & Alexa Bliss. Im familiar with kalisto so i know hes pretty solid in the ring. I never heard of Alexa bliss.Alexa did some cool moves but she was clearly super green(also at one point in the match was bledding from her mouth) but she was facing alicia fox so I can't blame her.
I liked Alexa Bliss outside of the botched standing moonsault. I'm all for a more competitive Div's Div.
I feel bad for Paige they just kinda threw her on Raw with no introduction. They should have done some "Coming Soon" type video's like they have done for Adam Rose and Bo Dallas. They haven't put her in matches against anyone that she can show off what she can do either.

Lol, that's because there's no one in the division who can wrestle, with the exception of Natalya (though her style is kinda tired and dull) and maybe Emma (but of course, she's forever trapped in Santino-comedy hell).
That's why I love Shimmer (which incidentally is where I first saw Paige, when she was working as Brittani Knight along side her mother, Saraya Knight). There's so many awesomely talented female wrestlers out there; it's a damn shame that WWE doesn't even try with the division.
... kinda done with the Wyatts and the creepy singing. ever since that whole sequence with the little kid just droning that song on and on and on, I'm just... done. i liked it at first, but now i want them to wrestle, dammit, not just piddle on out there with their schtick. :/
been watching through some old Raw as of late, back in the DX reunion days with McMahon and the Spirit Squad. ahhhhhh... DX bliss.
also, why the hell is Bo going to Raw? i hope they eat him alive, lol. Adam Rose too, it feels like him and his party have just shown up on NXT and now all of a sudden they're putting him into the main shows. maybe it's just me thinking it's too soon? idk :/

@theblackdragon Im as puzzled as you are about Bo and Adam. I think because they been in developmental for so long they figure give them a chance at tv,if they bomb i assume they would be send packing.
I don't care what anyone says I think Adam Rose is hilarious. That said I don't have high hopes that it will work. I found him fun on NXT because the crowd was so in to it. I'm not sure the Raw and SD crowd will respond the same way.
Emmas dance was also really over with the NXT crowd, with that mindset all she did was her dance during her first few (in ring) appearances.Creative thinking every1 that went to Raw/SD already knew her but they were wrong.

I think the WWE thinks there are more people watching NXT then there really is. I don't know the numbers but I would guess that there is a good amount of fans that don't even watch SD let alone NXT. Those people only watch Raw.
I would be willing to bet if the NXT champ Adrian Neville just randomly came out on Raw most of the crowd would have no idea who he was.
@Splat: I think i worded that poorly before — I think Bo's character is annoying, not Adam Rose's. It just feels like Adam's being pushed to the big leagues awful quickly compared to other NXT talent is all, and Bo's got less going for him than freakin' Fandango, lol. i bo-lieve i could happily go the rest of my life without seeing that character on screen again tbqh :3

@theblackdragon - I don't disagree with you on Bo Dallas. I'm not a fan but he really has nothing left to do on NXT. It's time to sink or swim with the big boys.
ah, that explains his in-ring ease the other night. it always throws me off when guys change characters for whatever reason, lol :3

@Tasuki that is doubtful. Bray Wyatt was getting a really good response in NXT. I think the NXt crowd was a lil sad when he was called up. Bo on the other hand the crowd has been chanting the "Nana good bye song" every week since he lost the belt.
ho-ly hell, i had no idea Bo was freakin' Bray Wyatt's brother IRL. it kinda explains a lot, though. I'm sick of Bray Wyatt prattling on about prophecy-like bullcrap, and I'm sick of Bo and his crazy 'plz to love me nao all you bo-lievers' bullcrap, haha. anyway, pedigree/family aside, he'd better step up his game for srs if he wants to get anywhere with the Raw crowd, though. He doesn't even have a catchy theme song, so i don't think there's any way he'll even manage Fandango popularity, for pete's sake. /eyeroll
@Splat, i very much agree, it does feel like he's pulling x-pac heat. it doesn't bode well for him, lol.

@theblackdragon: Yep both Bo and Bray's father is I.R.S. If you remember him. Their Grandfather is Blackjack Mulligan and their Uncle I think it it is Barry Windham, which is who Bray is named after in real life.
