Oh, and welcome to the Wednesday night wall review. I'm Adam Wilborn from Whatculture joined

by the Deadly Boys of Whatculture, Michael Hamilton and Michael Cigarette to look back on

last night's episode of NXT. But before we get into it, if you're a fan of this sort of thing,

make sure you subscribe to Whatcultressing on either iTunes Spotify or if you get your podcasts

from for daily wrestling podcasts, where we're not only review the Wednesday night wall,

and if you want to know our thoughts on AEW Dynamite, that is available as a podcast right now.

We also review rules, SmackDown, pay reviews, we have interviews, round table discussions,

and a round-up of the week, complete with a legal quiz, of course, on wrestling culture.

Well, as I said, joined by Hamford and Cigarette to review NXT. One with major developments,

as we are very close to the next NXT takeover, stand and deliver. What do you think of this week's

episode Hamford? But they are not addressing that, which is wrong with this product, and I

dare say my esteemed colleague would argue they haven't done that in about a year and a half,

but certainly right here, right now, they're not doing that. They're not fixing a lack of energy

in enthusiasm and atmosphere, and virtually all of the key stories. They're not making

best use of the talent that can provide said energy in enthusiasm for the storylines,

because they've lost sight of how to book even the top stars. There might have been an issue

once upon a time with their losing their heart and sort of the mid card of NXT, but they seem to

use to have a good handle on the main event as that seems to be dissolving in front of our very eyes

this, like as the weeks go on. There's too much that's broken that they're either neglecting fix

or unable to do so. And I don't think quite honestly, I'm not putting this on the pandemic,

I'm not like this is on, this is on Tripoli's road dog and show Michael's and everybody else

creatively involved in NXT, but I don't think there's any way out for this brand until the pandemic
