>the champion of WWE's developmental brand is 40 years

What the fuck was with that match?

>tfw I just realized Roode is older than Nakamura, AJ and John Cena
KEK, nice "Developmental" brand you got there Paul

Listen to his recent comments on the brand, this is not enough for him either. He wants NXT to be a third brand. Forget about developmental, this isn't a developmental brand anymore.

The purpose is for them to learn the WWE style, the way shit is filmed, and to develop their characters.

I already enjoy this more than Smackdown even though I love AJ.

He's literally a transitional champ to get the belt on Chris Hero

NXT stopped being a developmental brnad long ago. They are their own separate fed. Evolve and WWN are the WWE's real developmental.

Bobby is literally Canadian Paul of course he'll put him over

Transitional Champ for Fat Champ
Absolutely JUST

I'm assuming to let Shinsuke still look strong, lose the title, and take "time off" so a surprise debut on Raw/Shmackdown can happen. Knowing his superpowers, tomorrow in the rumble. I mean, a man with autism that severe can neither remember nor understand he's got a torn ACL (in kayfabe)

18+

It makes sense to have an older veteran as the champion of a developmental promotion.
