    LOL: NXT Season 5 is a joke. But hey, give the jobbers a break. Most of them either lose or is not even on the show. At least Vladimir had a good tag title run with Santino, but still, give the jobbers a break. At least they are doing something and it’s probably their last activity in WWE before getting cut during WWE’s annual Spring cleaning. I think WWE is helping them get a few tv air time and get some extra cash before firing them, that’s actually good by WWE. But still it’s going to be a horrible NXT.

  • eddie510

    these are the pros???? WTF and LOL

  • SkytheDincht

    What the?! This thing is still going on to season 5? What a waste of time and space.

  • gcmissouri

    Why even bother? Tough Enough is coming, and no “winner” of this group is going to amount to anything in WWE anyway. And yes, a horrible list of “Pros.” How are you supposed to take Hornswoggle seriously as a pro? Maybe if it were Bischoff’s little midget wrestling company, but it isn’t.

  • justmyopinion

    big mistake by wwe, this will last about 5 weeks & you can pretty much pencil in connor o’brain or lucky cannon as the winner already. this looks a bit cheap & nasty.
    the only good thing is that it will give chavo,tatsu & koslov extra t.v time which they have unluckyly not received lately..

  • bkingston836

    Why there is Darren Young? Wasnt he a wwe superjobber in wwe superstars??? Why the hell is he in NXT?
    Also Pro’s made me laugh so hard that i pissed myself of XD I mean Horrny??? You got to be kiddin me!

  • markroda

    if they wanna bring guys from prevoius season, fine!! But at least bring back guys that went far, that reached say the final four…. Jacob Novak?? he will be eliminated first again…!!
    Conor O’Brian?? Lucky Cannon ?? Titus O’Neil?? How far did they succeed??
    Darren Young goes from Superstars back to NXT….??
    At least they recycle the Pros, Hornswoggle will be interesting…
    They shoulda put Tyson Kidd mentoring JACKSON ANDREWS …!!!

  • VyperBoy

    Thats the best they could think of?? :O OMG!! thats sooo stupid!!! They could better make tag team season to improve WWE tag teams!!!!

  • somewrestlingfansareidiots

    WWE once again showing that they can’t hold onto a good idea to save their lives. What is Conan O’Brian going to learn from Kozlov? What Titus O’jobber going to learn from F*cking Hornswoggle!?

    Kidd and Guererro are the only legit guys on their and Kidd, imo, is to young for this. Chavo is a perfect fit. Oh well, heres to another wasted season and talent.

  • Forceton_Banfodder

    LOL @ you people who think NXT is just now becoming a joke. Uh…News flash. its been a joke since its inception.

  • JamieEvsxx

    HORNSWOGGLE…REALLY ?!?!…jeez no wonder NXT is on WWE.com…¬_¬

  • DirtiestPlayer

    Does anyone even watch this crap?

    Who is gonna be the “WWE’s Next Jobber?”

    Put these guys on Superstars and let them develop. Stop with all of the “comedy” that nobody laughs at.

    More wrestling and less entertainment will equal more fans.

  • wrestlingfan007

    I remember there was a report that WWE put on a weak Season 4 (which I think was pretty good) because they was saving an even stronger Season 5 for television. They was hoping to bring NXT back on TV. Seeing that it’s still online and we haven’t heard anything as yet about a new TV deal for NXT, I’m guessing WWE is buying time. So they put on a Jobber NXT, with losers from the past seasons and WWE jobbers as their pros. This could be a way to buy time, before they put on a huge Season 6 or maybe even Season 7 on television. Tyler Black (nka Seth Rollins) and Consequences Creed (nka Xavier Woods) were two that was reported I believe to be the main focus of that big NXT that would return to television.

    And yes it’s pretty much a lock that Lucky Cannon is going to win this thing. One he’s the FCW Champion atm and two he’s got Tyson Kidd as his pro. Yes Kidd stocks has dropped a whole lot since losing the Tag Team Titles, however of the punch of pros he’s seems to be the most serious one can take.

  • wrestlingfan007

    It’s like an almost perfect pairing wit Lucky and Kidd. Similar to what WWE did with Wade Barrett and Chris Jericho, however Tyson Kidd ain’t no Jericho now is he? But yeah just a close example.

  • http://www.yahoo.com gefed23

    remember season 1 when jericho and cm punk were pros? I cant even remember the last time I’ve seen Yoshi Tatsu on Raw! But you could look on the bright side, it’ll probably be better than season 3.

  • rowdysk316

    Why is Young on? I thought he was already on the roster (despite being used very sparingly).

  • l3gitjok3r

    Season 3- Most Entertaining if you know what I mean
    Season 1- Best one, each Rookie got a good pro
    Season 2- Ha! Remember the Result
    Season 4- Most Disappointing
    Season 5- To be on NXT season 6, but w/ Maryse as host then I might watch
