| MIZ BLOG: THOUGHTS ON NXT SEASON 2
|
Before NXT season one, I wrote a blog and this season will be no different. I want to give my opinion on NXT season one and NXT season two.
First off, I want to congratulate Wade Barrett. He was the ideal rookie; big, good looking, and could handle opponents in the ring as well as on the mic. I actually wasn't a fan of Wade's until the promo challenge which he killed. After that, I knew this guy would be a star. However, that didn't stop me from drawing all the attention of the show to Daniel Bryan, because let's face it, he failed in every challenge. So I made sure to berate him, making all of you puppets love him. The meaner I was, the more you cheered and the more the Pros voted him to win. When I was done, Daniel Bryan was voted No. 1 in the Pros' Poll and would have won the entire show but he didn't want it bad enough. He told the WWE Universe to vote him off like a coward; a person that couldn't take the pressure of being No. 1. Now what would any big company do to a person that didn't believe in themselves? They would get rid of them. So I ended having my No. 1 ranked Rookie get eliminated by management because he was an idiot. I made Daniel Bryan in WWE. I made him relevant. I made people care about him. However, I was still disappointed that my Rookie didn't win season one of NXT.
That is the reason that I am back for NXT season 2. I know I can win. I know given the right Rookie, one who will listen, there will be no stopping him. I actually went to WWE's training facility to find who I thought would be WWE’s breakout star and I found him. His name is Alex Riley. I know all of you internet nerds think Kaval is a "god" but you said the same about Daniel Bryan and look where that got him.
It will be interesting to see how the 50% vote from the Pros and 50% vote from the WWE.com fans plays out. It definitely brings a new element to the show. However, I can't say I'm excited to hear what hardygirl45’s opinion on WWE's next breakout star is. Regardless, NXT's season two show will be entertaining. Just look at the names; Lucky, Husky, Percy. Is this WWE or the "Little Rascals"? Just seeing Kaval come out to Lay-Cool’s music is enough for me to be excited about this Tuesday night.
All jokes aside, Alex Riley is the real deal. Just look at his introductory video. Compared to the rest of the Rookies, he's the one that looks the part, talks the part and is the part of NXT that you will all will want to watch. Alex Riley will prove to be better than all the rest including season 1 winner, Wade Barrett. As Alex’s Pro, I won't settle for anything other than a winner because I'm the Miz and I'm awesome!
