**NXT IS BETTER THAN RAW AND SMACKDOWN THREAD** - Page 19 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I always get the feeling the crowd is full of people that go to the Grand Canyon and are too busy updating their Facebook statuses and taking pictures with their phones to ever look up and *actually* experience anything in the moment.

Haven't watched much lately but from what I've seen Baron Corbin has grown into an outstanding heel for the sheer fact that people actually don't like him and want to see him lose. I've always been a mark for heels so whenever I'm rooting against a heel it's a sign they are doing something right. On the main roster I think the only heel I've felt this way about is the Miz.

I feel like Corbin is exactly what Reigns should have been all along - silent ass-kicker when face, douchebag ass-kicker when heel

With the possible exception of Dana Brooke, I don't think anyone has improved more in 2015 than Baron Corbin.

I think the Breaking Ground show helps too because he comes off as a heel. WWE doesn't do silent ass kickers in main events anymore, unless you're Brock Lesner and can make them do it.

I would quite happily watch Asuka and Emma trade hammerlocks for 10 minutes.

So glad the guy who was hospitalized in the US on Monday was able to open the show in London on Wednesday.

Tag team division in great shape at NXT. Can't wait till Vince calls them up and puts makeup on them.

Think Kong gets the belt here and Bayley gets the call up because the Divas division needs a few faces and then Kong can feud with Aska for the NXT belt.

I know we all bag on HHH but he's done a phenomenal job with NXT. WWE's product will improve immeasurably when he finally takes over for Vince.

yeah i actually like hhh a fair amount
he does still care about "the look" too much like vince, but he also seems like he's capable of running with things when fans disagree

most important he's willing to use himself to get others over at this point (and has for a while now). he jobbed clean to bryan, lost to curtis axle once, and is getting the crap beaten out of him to make reigns look good.

evolution era haitches (and a bit before/while after) was really bad but i have no issues with him currently

Does Baron going over clean mean Balor keeps the belt?
