As we reported over the weekend, there appears to be backstage resentment coming from main roster WWE talents in regards to NXT, particularly with the match quality afforded to NXT talent vs main roster stars.
The Bella Twins appeared at the Indianapolis Comic Con over the weekend, and seemed to echo the feeling, as Nikki Bella had the following to say when asked about NXT Divas getting more match time as opposed to the short matches main roster Divas work:
“I was saying that. If I was in NXT I would not wanna come up to the main roster because you get so much time down there. If you come to the live events you’ll see we get a lot of time at the live events. When it comes to TV we get so frustrated because it’s hard to tell a story in 3 minutes and especially when they want an entrance. We want time to wrestle. Especially after watching NXT Rival pay-per-view and seeing them go 20 minutes, it’s like a dream. It’s something we’d love and we’re trying so hard to get more time. There’s a three hour Raw and you can’t give more time to the Divas? But, hopefully in the future.”
Additionally, Brie makes the point that she feels it’s silly for WWE to have Total Divas story lines crossover to Raw, as Total Divas is shot months in advance, and it’s difficult to pretend on Raw or Smackdown like the events on the reality show just happened last night.
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
