KEVIN OWENS, WWE-EVOLVE, DOES HHH NOT WANT TO BRING TALENTS TO THE MAIN ROSTER & MORE

Due to time constraints, I don’t watch NXT. My question concerns Kevin Owens, In NXT, did he often walk out of matches when they went against him? This is a typical WWE heel move, but I wondered if he built his NXT reputation at least in part doing the same thing.

No, in NXT he was pushed as a prizefighter who was a straight up badass heel.

How can WWE have JBL sit there and say that you can order the PPV through your cable provider and then Michael Cole literally seconds later say the PPV's are "only" on the WWE Network?

It's typical promotion to try and funnel people towards subscribing to the Network. I can't blame WWE for that.

With EVOLVE clearly working with WWE with their next set of shows built around the Rumble, do you think we will ever see a official press release announcing a working partnership?

No, I think both sides want fans to speculate and wonder what is going on.

Do you think Triple H approaches the news that one of the NXT talents is being called up to the main roster with trepidation? He’s so heavily invested in NXT, the characters, etc. only to see them be called up and flounder under Vince’s direction.

No. Unless something drastically changes, the reason NXT exists is to cultivate talents for the main roster. There is more money to be made on the main roster. NXT is great but at the end of the day, HHH's job is to get talents to a point where they are making more money for themselves and the company.

Where should I start with these old NWA TV shows on the Network?

If you are smart, the first episode and then watch everything. That is some gloriously great weekly TV.
