13. NXT
Jericho asks how the two men ended up teaming together, and they talk about how they were both contestants on NXT: Redemption. Titus says that the season lasted months longer than it was supposed to and eventually ran out of storylines. Titus comments that he went from face to heel and back to face all within a year, and their chemistry was noticed by those in charge and they were given a chance to go out and be more of themselves. That led to them getting an opportunity to go and do their thing on SmackDown and both men received a contract from John Laurinaitis. Darren says that the NXT competition was a nightmare because he didn't want to do American Gladiator or Ninja Warrior nonsense and that the challenges exposed a lot of the talent.
