Shane is (as in Shane Thorne) is.

They're not common names here, either. My guess is that Billie is more common in the UK, simply because the only Billie I've ever heard of in real life (Billie Piper) is British.

I don't know where "Peyton" comes from. The only other Peyton I've heard of was the name Rain used during her TNA run, but that was as part of a pun (Peyton Banks... because she was managing rich guy Bobby Roode).

Alright here goes. Judas Mesias-before he bulked and turned into Mil Muertes-could have been big in WWE.

I might be the only person in the world that think this but, "NXT" always has and always will sound stupid.

it doesn't stand for anything!

It's just the word NEXT without the E. I'm pretty sure they made a graphic about it when NXT was first a thing.

No, I actually think that before the first “season” of NXT, there was a big graphic about it. I might be misremembering and I’m counting on Red to correct me, but it does have a meaning. It means that it’s the next generation, that’s the whole shtick of the brand lol

Not Red, but I can clarify that when the original "Pro's n Rookies" NXT came on, it didn't stand for anything. It drove me nuts back then... now... and forever.

Yeah no, NXT does not and never did stand for anything.

Unless...

No Xenophobes Tonight!

Wait that's obviously not it...

I have no memory of them ever saying it stood for anything or meant anything. Then again, the only parts of the first episode I remember are the stuff involving Dragon.

At the very beginning of it, "NEXT" was the assumed meaning, and I do believe somebody within WWE said "No, it really doesn't stand for anything... it's just some letters we threw together... sounds cool, though! Right!?" and it's been punching my OCD in the nuts ever since.

What the hell! Did I have a fever dream or something?

Or possibly you read something on their website in the week beforehand and Vince changed his mind and decided not to go with it.

What the hell do you REALLY think NXT could have stood for anyways though?

"New 'Xperimental Territory"?

I did say, in an earlier post lol

Alright-here we go again-I'm soured on Cm Punk-have been for years. I (shut up Cero!), never found him that great. He was entertaining for years to watch, but I never saw as him as this GREAT of his era. AJ Styles is better. Kurt Angle was better. Shawn Michaels of course was better. Daniel Bryan? Probably and arguably. Seth Rollins is much better.

I was just never a number one top fan of the guy. And no this isn't a "I hate that Indy skinny fat boy and I give him 4/10 like I'm Bret Hart. "

On the contrary. I quite enjoyed him and he made me laugh from time when he was a mainstay. Then his attitude came out and that did a lot for my opinion professionally and personally and I never put much thought into it ...but yeah....he's NOT "THE BEST IN THE WORLD AT WHAT HE-DID.)

Any given night there were 5 better.
