10 Reasons You Should Give WWE NXT Another Chance

10. The Gimmicks Are Unique

Where else in the weird and wacky world of professional wrestling can you turn your TV on and see a university on the brink of dissension, a man obsessed with watermelon suit jackets and a woman in a onesie with a pillow capable of knocking anyone out? The sandbox of NXT is a blank canvas that anyone can throw paint at to try and create something never seen before.

Admittedly, some of these are failed experiments. Take Schism for example, Joe Gacy is one of the more accomplished wrestlers in the NXT ring but the package surrounding him is weak, confusing and features a total lack of any meaning or direction. In contrast, Chase University is one of the more over acts at the Performance Center. The simplicity of the gimmick partnered with the entertainment from Andre Chase, Duke Hudson and Thea Hail makes Chase U one of the most exciting parts of NXT every week. The trio also have their own section in the crowd every week that adds a further dynamic layer to the group, especially when they chant along to the team's moves.

Other gimmicks such as Lyra Valkyria cosplaying as a crow and Axiom being a mathematical genius are subtle layers that add to the characters we see every Tuesday night. The originality doesn't stop with the performers. In the past year, NXT has featured an NXT Underground match, two Iron Survivor Challenges and a Jailhouse Street Fight along with other tweaks to famous match types from years gone by.

If you want a fresh look to wrestling then NXT is your place.
