NXT isn't mainstream though, it isn't gonna bring back casual fans...put Gargano or Adam Cole standing next to Lesnar or the Undertaker and try sell that fight to the casual fans for Wrestlemania...

You can do it with the right time and effort put into the wrestler. It worked for Bryan.

If you just throw them out there with no build up or development then of course it wont work.

So you reckon Bryan was a mainstream draw?.... Seemed to me he wasn't, just hugely popular with the hardcore fans who were tired of seeing the likes of Bryan & Punk not given opportunities because they were small, and didn't want Reigns forced on them as the new Cena.....and if Bryan was so over, he wouldn't have been a heel less than a year after returning?...

I don't think anybody is a mainstream draw currently. Hasn't been one for many years.

I love the fact that Vince thinks he's gonna win the 18-25 year old crowd over by trotting out guys who peaked before said demographic was even born.

Which was my original point....the days of wrestling being mainstream are over... They pushed the limits in the 80's, 90's & 00's, but now awareness of Head injuries and drug abuse means the product has to be toned down...
AEW will far no better than WWE, in fact I think they'll struggle to attract significant ratings...
There's a good reason Vince is taking that Saudi money..

Can't wait for this now.

Has anyone watched any of the G1? Far too much to watch, heard Ospreay v Okada was good.

Bits and pieces of the G1, mainly the matches that are said to be amazing and any of Kenta/Mox/Toru

Yes, there is far too much to keep up with properly

Little discussion for you all.

Kevin Owens is the best NXT call up ever.

Better than Rollins.

But in terms of everything.

He can do everything. He just has a pretty unattractive look. But he’s great at promos, can have matches with anyone, heel or face, he’s got it all. So consistent.
