Shawn Michaels says NXT “only brand” producing fresh talent

By Scott Keith on 5th December 2021

Your thoughts on these comments by Vince McMahon sycophant Shawn Michaels?

“Now I recognize right now that one of the cool buzz words in this business is, ‘we’re producing new, young, fresh superstars.’ And they’re actually people that have been around this job for 10 or 15 years and they’re just now making it onto television,” he said. “We are the only brand in the entire world that is bringing, real true-to-life, young, fresh men and women, that are going to be the stars of Raw and SmackDown in the next 5 to 10 years. It’s just that simple.”

I should point out that none of the talent on NXT 2.0 has even made it to the main roster yet, and in fact the brand itself has only been around for a couple of months. So it's a little early for him to be bragging about talent development.
