Welcome to the Busted Open After Dark podcast. I'm your host Tommy Dreamer and I will be breaking down everything.

NXT's homecoming right now.

This is the Busted Open podcast.

I love the opening montage of homecoming back to full sale, obviously full sale, has been

NXT's home for a long, long time.

You watched the growth.

Hell, we grew up watching this product.

We watched, you know, and this was a triple H thing, and not when Triple H was management.

This was a Triple H vision when he was just getting his feet wet into management and wanting to start this.

They found the right place, the right opportunity. I mean, WW had several developmental systems.

They were kind of individually owned. This was, no, we're going to own everything.

It took a long time to get to, and we watched Nxte. Really, it was just, it was a, I mean, from

FCW, when it was completely dusty roads, then to NXT with Triple HN dusty roads. But it was an

internet show, and when not a whole lot of

people were watching and a lot of great talents and a lot of great matches came about from that.

And you watch that and you watch that product grow.

And you watch Triple H work his ass off to make that product grow.

It was, it's a cool part of history.

take. You know, again, different management.

Vince McMahon was the owner.
