10 Things WWE Are Struggling To Get Over Right Now
9. Sanity
Sanity's Eric Young and Alexander Wolfe got a great crowd reaction when they upset The Authors Of Pain at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn III. Working babyface for the first time since coming together, the chaotic group looked better than ever as they took it to their imposing opponents, and captured the brand's Tag Team Champions to a monstrous Barclays Center pop.
Sadly, this is the only time Sanity have ever been able to generate any kind of noise from an NXT audience, and all signs suggest that Brooklyn was an anomaly.
The group regularly walk out to cricket chirps at Full Sail University. Granted, a large portion of this can probably be attributed to the venue's declining noise levels as a whole, but other NXT acts are still getting reactions. Sanity get absolutely nothing, and while their apparent face turn may help, there's no evidence to suggest that their Full Sail woes have been cured.
Sanity's lack of overness is entirely down to the company. Killian Dain and Nikki Cross are fantastic, Young is extremely charismatic, and Wolfe is a solid hand himself. They all have something to offer, but they've been saddled with a go-nowhere gimmick, terrible aesthetics, and one of the company's worst entrance themes.
