1234 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 With what happened on RAW I am now really hyped up for today's NXT. I wondering if the Season 1 guys will show up on NXT tonight. Or maybe try to have the new croup join them in the hunt for glory, or something along those lines. Speaking of NXT season 2, I am really excited about Alex Riley, especially since his mentor is the Miz. Perfect fit. Im hoping Barrett shows up to recrute the new rookies...but thats just because i want Kaval to join in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Celt Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 <p>I'm thinking on the NXT RAW (aaahhh, see what I did there <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/rolleyes.png.4b097f4fbbe99ce5bcd5efbc1b773ed6.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> ) Vince McMahon will be hyped as coming out to comment on the NXT season 1 rookie problem. I bet he comes out towards the end of the show and swerves a very people by announcing he's never been more impressed by a group of rookies, saying their invasion was one of the most memorable moments on RAW for some time and a real rating grabber, and as such he's offically signing all the rookies to WWE contracts! </p><p> </p><p> The NXT rooks come out, and Wade Barrett will thank Mr. McMahon for his valuable investment. Wade then cuts a promo about how his NXT group are the new stars of the WWE and shall be taking over in the coming weeks and months etc etc etc The rightful and true heirs of the WWE kingdom etc etc etc </p><p> </p><p> Dur Dur Dur Duuuuuurrrrrrrrrrr</p><p> </p><p> Dur Dur Dur Duuuuurrrrrrrrrrr</p><p> </p><p> Ya-HA!</p><p> </p><p> <em>Trumpets </em> </p><p> </p><p> Cena comes out, backed by a ton of RAW guys and they come down and brawl with the NXT group as RAW either ends or goes to break.</p><p> </p><p> End Segment.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 <p>Well, it looks like the writing crew wrote the NXT segment first, felt so chuffed with themselves and didn't bother with the rest of the show. Fascinating end to a substandard Raw. Tarver's look with the bandana over his face in the crowd was perfect for the beginning of a very real-feeling angle. </p><p> </p><p> Barrett's the natural leader, just immense in his role. When they said the NXT winner would get a PPV title match, did it mean in a properly sanctioned, announced-ahead-of-time match, or could it mean a match similar to the MITB wins of the past? If it means a MITB style match, Cena retains at Fatal 4 Way and loses the belt straight after to Barrett. Really interesting angle.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrOnu Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Totally unexpected and it created a buzz. Now comes the hard part : the follow-up. There's ton of potentiel, it can be entertaining, heck we all want it to be, but it can also bomb hard. Let's hope it leads somewhere meaningful and that it's not just another angle we'll have forgotten in 4 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDE71 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 <p>TNA has all this young talent and they don't push it and have floundered lately. </p><p> </p><p> Now WWE looks like they might be pushing a ton of young workers and despite a really bad show, used them in an amazing angle.</p><p> </p><p> Yes the follow-up will be critical in whether or not this is anything more than a ten minute one angle wonder. </p><p> </p><p> They did get me to watch NXT 2nite and to avoid Smackdown spoilers and to watch RAW next week.</p><p> </p><p> However, if they give us another bad show with a great angle to end it, that won't be enough.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UkWrestleFan Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 <p>I'd like it to be Cole but then there's his rift with Danielson/Bryan.

Hope they dont mess it up.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoganRodzen Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 <p>After thinking about it a little more I've come to the conclusion that they could have done all of this building up to a Survivor Series PPV and had a couple of 4 on 4 matches - rookies vs pros. </p><p> </p><p> I think one of the things WWE is going to focus on is the fact that nobody came down to help. No security interfering, announcers were beat down (Fink, Roberts, and King) without anybody helping them, WWE champion (face of the company) was beat down without anybody helping him... not even Evan Bourne, the guy who gave him his big break last week. I can understand nobody helping out Punk because he's heel and the SES was beat down as well, but both SD and RAW rosters were there last night and NOBODY did anything? </p><p> </p><p> I really think that will be a focal point of this storyline. They're united as one alliance (NXT) and showing the entire roster that they can't be defeated because there are strength in numbers. Could be nothing, but it definitely adds to the armbands.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Roguey Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 did anyone else notice that as soon as he saw the nxt guys he was outa there Yeah. He probably runs the group. It would make sense. The abused announcer stands on his own two feet. They could incorporate the semi-feud with Danie Bryan as Cole could slowly twist it and bring in the newer guys. Boom! Bryan vs NXT vs WWE. Bryan could be the new Sting IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKenwyne Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Have to say I'm not an avid follower of wrestling, I read reports of the events but never really watch them, but after all the smark happiness over this angle I went and looked it up and wow. That. Was. Awesome. Everything just WORKED. From the little flick to Tarver and then the way King goes 'They just got Matt Striker' *THUNK*... and then Punk having a little face moment coming to Cena's aid. They drew out the Cena beating too long IMO, just Barret-Gabriel finisher combo would've been better. Trashing the set was good though. If they'd taken out a planted fan, even better. I prefer the JR as leader theory to the Cole one. Maybe because I like JR. And not Cole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoganRodzen Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 i like the idea of all those little cena fans who believe in all this wwe universe crap were crying as they watched there hero get destroyed stupid kids... Them panning in the crowd to women and children with sad looks on their faces. Kids yelling "ring the bell!" like that would get them to stop. I thought it looked awesome because Cena was literally destroyed and all of his fans could do nothing to help him. It was so well done live... the five minute clip on WWE.come doesn't do the segment justice. After watching the segment again I noticed fans chanting "NXT! NXT! NXT!" and that's pretty darn catchy. I really like the talk of this being an NWO of young guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
