4) More On WWE Calling Up A Lot Of New Talent
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer provided some additional details about the number of call-ups from NXT as of late.
Here is what Meltzer wrote:
One person close to the situation noted exactly that, when the advances came in, Vince assessed it by saying there was nobody new, fresh or exciting on the roster and that’s when he went to NXT with the idea of freshening up the roster with new faces who would be pushed hard right out of the box (or until he gives up on some of them quickly.
My Take:
- I love seeing fresh faces. The key here is making sure that they are booked properly and don’t get lost in the shuffle. That seems to be what WWE struggles with the most.
