Summary
Brian Campbell and Adam Silverstein waste little time in discussing NXT's live debut on USA Network. The guys break down whether the show stayed true to the NXT brand, what can be improved in future episodes, whether the first edition of the program was a win for WWE and everything that went down, including a title change, a big return and more. BC and The Silver King then move on to Brock Lesnar's return to SmackDown and whether him ultimately defeating Kofi Kingston for the WWE championship is a positive or negative outcome for Kingston's reign. The guys also briefly discuss the forthcoming WWE Draft before moving on to Hero or Zero where topics include The Fiend taking over Raw, Baron Corbin winning King of the Ring, the Street Profits hosting Maria Kanellis' gender reveal party, the continuation of the Roman Reigns angle on SmackDown and the burying of Cedric Alexander.
