TEN-XT: A WWE NXT History Podcast

We finally arrive at NXT ArRival, with the event itself being much better than the build. Sami Zayn and Antonio Cesaro deliver in their historic rivalry-ending match. The Ascension are surprised by Too Cool. Paige and Emma do the best they can with bad booking. And Adrian Neville ascends to the top of the brand, in NXT's first ever ladder match.

We can only assume a "Go Home" show is supposed to make you want to go home and watch the show. It seems like NXT forgot to book half of their champions in matches, with a half-finished lackluster build from the Divas division, and nothing planned for YAH YAH YAH - The Ascension. However, Tyler Breeze and Adrian Neville save the show - With a great little main event match. Email us your thoughts a...

You'd think NXT ArRival was still many weeks away, but we're close and they're not hyping many matches. Zayn vs Cesaro IV gets locked-in by Triple H, and there's some hype for Paige vs Emma in the Divas segment, but with so many top stars injured, the build is rough. Colin Cassady falls down our babyface rankings through no fault of his own, and CJ Parker turns heel on the NXT universe. Email us y...

Triple H has a huge announcement regarding the stipulation for Adrian Neville and Bo Dallas on February 27th! (he's still not named the event that's three weeks away). Aiden English has some abhorant, top-heel opinions. The Divas division begins some faction warfare, and it turns out Colin Cassidy is our best booked babyface.

COO Triple H announces NXT ArRival, which sounds like someone from Newcastle describing Sunderland AFC. Our opening match of Adrian Neville vs Tyler Breeze is a great example of NXT in 2014.
