PWP Nation’s guest columnist Jamahl Reynolds examines the good and bad from WWE in the year of 2015.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: This has been by far the strongest year WWE has booking wise in literally a decade. Although there are still some issues to address within a company, I can honestly say that in terms of intentions, storytelling, even wrestling, I cannot recall any year that came close to WWE 2015.
It’s like a breathe of fresh air from previous years of repetitive main event booking, underdeveloped storylines and characters, and predictable outcomes.
In this article, I will rank some of the best and worst of WWE 2015. With 10 being a perfect score and 1 being an absolute failure (or zero if I have extreme issues on the subject.)
NXT
Honestly whether or not NXT is perfect is up for debate, but I cannot think of anything for WWE’s NXT to improve on. It’s like watching Ring of Honor before Jim Cornette got involved with the company.
It’s Lucha Underground with a PG rating but with an equal idea of keeping wrestling central to its product. I love the talent in NXT; I dig the hell out of the matches on NXT and most importantly, I look forward to their shows every week.
If I were to name the weakest shows in NXT 2015, I would count them with one hand…which is almost as much as the number of good matches/moment in any year in WWE, prior to 2015. If there is any optimistic evidence of WWE creating a great product when Vince McMahon passes it on to Triple H, NXT is the proof.
