>>10744023Ah, Triple Paul era NXT. The paradigm exemplar of intellectually bankrupt, one-note booking. It should really be referred to as welfare booking, worthless when the goal is maintaining an audience week-to-week. Most fans who raved about it were kayfabing themselves, only watched the takeovers and measuring against the utter sty that was main roster wwe in the 2010s.
In any case, you could count the formula they followed was embarrassingly transparent
>Muh "hottest free agent" debuts>Beats everyone>Beats the old champion and becomes champion>Old champion shuffled off to (fail on the) main roster>Next "hottest free agent" debuts, cycle repeatsNo wonder Vince wanted to bury the shitpile.
