WWE NXT Debuts

Well the suspense is over and WWE NXT is here. I was actually quite happy to see that it was an actually wrestling show with a little bit of a different format. The show started with the Miz and Daniel Bryan having a confrontation and talking about experience, charisma, personality, etc. It was announced that Daniel Bryan would be taking on World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho later in the evening.

The first match of the evening was Christian and Heath Slater taking on Carlito and Michael Tarver. I thought this was a very solid match. Christian took advantage of the rookie Tarver and won the match for he and Heath Slater.

David Otunga(Punk from I love New York and Jennifer Hudsons Husband) and Darren Young was up next. Otunga was very impressive and beat Young within just minutes. I think Otunga is going to very far in pro wrestling. He has the look, the character and the total package to be in the business

The Main Event was Daniel Bryan taking on Chris Jericho. All I got to say is what a great match between the two. Bryan took some chances and unfortunately in the end it cost Bryan. He tapped out to the Wall of Jericho. After the match The Miz proceeded to beatdown his rookie and add injury to insult.

I actually like this whole NXT concept. It’s a lot better then Tough Enough and along the same lines of UFC’s Ultimate Fighter. Here is what I would like to see happen. One, all eight guys participate in a battle royal of some sorts at Wrestlemania 26. Number two, I would really love to see it come down to Bryan Daniel and David Otunga. These are the two guys I am rooting for. Keep tuning in every Tuesday on SyFy at 10pm to see who gets the Raw Superstar contract.
