He was very good from the get go, but there are benefits working with The Bloodline on an angle that's very much Heyman's idea that other NXT call-ups really don't get. 

But at the same time, people like Bron and even The Creeds are just moving in circles. There's nothing more for them at NXT. I get trying to keep Tiff Stratton and Roxy there because they are very young and the division kinda needs them at the moment, but some people could do with the call-up.

Speaking of which, didn't they call up other talent like the Alba Fyre and Respectful Isla Dawn? And KC²? The women's feuds are dire right now and not really due to a lack of talent.

Fast tracking him to the main roster gave Solo more of an aura and mystery than the typical debut. We hadn't seen everything already, he was fresh, and he was protected by the booking.  

It's time to shut down NXT entirely. I'll keep banging that drum. You might say, "what about USA?" then call it another WWE concept show. You got Baron Corbin running around anyways. There is no buzz at all, it has launched nothing but stroke Shawn and Hunter's ego. Waller gained nothing being there, he already seemed stale on arrival. It takes away all of the surprise factor of "who the hell is this?!" like with Sikoa. If I'm Endeavor, day one(ish) I'm flushing the NXT brand.

NXT is not connecting with young people at all. Mostly dudes in their 40s watching it. NXT should be rebranded as more of an experimental show and not using Shawn's banal booking. Kind of like what NWA Powerrr started off as but without the nostalgia and retro look, more of an Adult Swim vibe. More of a Firefly Funhouse friendly show.

NXT's biggest reason to exist is giving reps to the newbies, you're never going to know what you have with them unless you give them a space to figure things out.  Now you can make an argument if being on USA every week helps or hurts that, but the idea of NXT is essential to WWE.

Alba and Isla losing the tag unification to Ronda and Shayna, only for Ronda and Shayna to then break up the very next week was terrible. And Alba/Isla haven't been on TV now in over 2 months.

KC2 came in looking awesome for a few weeks, then they just had them lose a bunch of times in quick matches and killed that.
