I recall when Bayley was on top in NXT. And a lot of people were calling her female John Cena. And EYE said her gimmick as it was would never work under Vince and fans were going to turn on her for several reasons. I was, of course, shouted down.
I can admit I was crazy about the Hugger gimmick but I got it. I got why y'all like it. But y'all also infantized Bayley to an absurd degree. So of course, when Vince did it even further, y'all . . . Started booing her.
Now if EYE could see that, how come HHH didn't? As much he pushed the 4HW in NXT, he did little to prepare them for Vince. And 3 of them struggled out the gate. Ric Flair made sure his daughter got it.
Sasha was lucky she is so good at putting people over. Bayley and Becky both had to fumble around before hitting their groove and now Vince trusts both.
For a while there was a joke between me and my circle that if HHH pushes you in NXT, Vince doesn't trust you and instead gives guys that weren't pushed a look first.
