Everyone comes to a crossroads in their life and I’ve come to mine. I look forward to telling you all about it tonight on ?#?Raw?.


The "crossroads" is what has me worried.

Now, I will say this, Bad News announcing it may be the only thing that gets me to laugh it up a bit

So on a scale of 1 to cm punk, how pissed will everyone be when they saddle Adrian Neville with a lame arse mighty mouse gimmick?

I'm not thrilled.
If anything it affirms my belief that no one should ever leave NXT.

It is supposed to be more like Crash Holly, but that's still kinda stupid. I liked Crash though.

I'd gauge my anger somewhere around "Real Man's Man" Steven Regal

They should never change gimmicks in between nxt and main roster. Dance with the girl you brought.
What percentage of the target demo even know who the hell mighty mouse is?

I hate already projecting this, but to me, unless you book them properly, The Ascension seem destined to fail. It's a case of bringing people up who probably get over bigger in NXT than they will/do on the main roster like what happened with Adam Rose and Emma.

They are mediocre workers, but with the right booking, like let's say interrupting Usos/Rhodes Brothers match #54645 and just laying everybody out, you make them feel important.

which would be perfect for the ascension we've all learned to love now.

but yea, outside of Rusev and Paige (kinda), who's had a good call up?
Big E? No.
Bo Dallas? No.
Emma? No
Adam Rose? No.

They basically just call up a gimmick, amplify the gimmick and do nothing else.

I think they are amazing workers as a tag team, I've really enjoyed every match I've seen them wrestle together. Neither provide anything else, and really they probably need a mouthpiece similar to Paul bearer in the beginning of undertaker career.

The tag team division is pretty stale right now so I think that gives them a boost right away.
