As many of you may know, Triple H is very pissed off with Vince McMahon, for obvious reasons. NXT was established as a developmental brand, a feeder system for the main rosters, Raw and Smackdown. Somewhere along the lines, NXT gained enormous momentum and to quote Meltzer, plans changed. What was first a developmental brand became the hottest of the three brands, eventually being seen and addressed as a standalone. Talents were then called up to the main roster, most of whom were botched once Vince McMahon got his hands on them: Including Bayley, Tyler Breeze, Finn Balor, Shinsuke Nakamura, Sami Zayn, Sasha Banks, Tye Dillinger and many others. The thing that made NXT special and unique was an appeal towards the hardcore, smarky and more in-the-know fans. NXT and Triple H himself has expressed a willingness to not only address outside promotions but to work with them, including bringing in Jushin "Thunder" Liger for a one-off against Tyler Breeze as well as the rumors of an ROH stable featuring Adam Cole, Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly. The picture in this OP being ripped directly from a WWE video showing Hiroshi Tanahashi, Ryusuke Taguchi and Naomichi Marufuji. The business has changed greatly within the past few years, Indie promotions and non-WWE promotions having their best years since 2001. How likely are we to see Triple H, being fed up with Vince McMahon, revolt and defy the WWE and work directly with their competitors, NJPW/ROH/PWG? Have one-offs with Kenny Omega, the Young Bucks, the rest of the Bullet Club? What are the odds that NXT splits apart from the WWE and becomes it's own "territory"? We've all heard of Triple H's plans to run NXT on his own, what are the odds that he purchases an Indie promotion and runs it under a different name, similar to what NXT is? What are the odds that disgruntled NXT talents walk out and instead, work under Triple H (Who owns a large number of shares in the company) directly for the WWE's competitors?

>I swing the sword. If I put the sentence down then I lay it down. If you have heat, that's what a locker room leader does, he speaks up for the rest of the bunch. It's tough when you have so many cooks in the kitchen -- I'm not the only guy who would speak up. But as the man that I am before I was in this business I would have spoken up if something was wrong, to what I am today within our industry. I am a locker room leader. I'd like to think I've been afforded the keys to the car and I drive that thing around every once in a while. But I'm going to take care of it. I said this a long time ago, and it's funny because I said it to CM Punk, but my whole goal is to leave this place better than I found it. I meant that. This business runs... people can say whatever they want about me, I was born in this business, this business runs through my veins. If you cut my arm, it's WWE that will leak out of that. I was fed since I can remember, from my dad and if my dad wasn't there than another man in our family stepped up and he was most likely making the money through this business. I've experienced a lot of hardships and a lot of great moments throughout my life because of this business. But the bottom line is it's fed me my entire life. I don't care who you are, you will not disrespect it, not in front of me, not today, not any day that I'm alive.

>WWE still hasn't replaced her drawing power.
It's been over a year and no-one has stepped up to the plate and business is dying. Do we need Brie to return?
