The jury is still out on whether the NXT Developmental System is going to be a success in that regard, as it turns out the vast majority\u00a0of WWE&#8217;s successful new wrestlers on the main roster are either second or third generation wrestlers or products of other pro wrestling promotions who toiled with low pay and rose through the ranks through sheer determination. It tends to be the most effective &#8220;test&#8221; for whether someone is going to love pro wrestling enough to put up with the endurance and grind that is part of the WWE schedule.\u00a0On another note,Tomlinson\u00a0needs to charge his phone.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-2693141952\"><div id=\"pwtor-1836945201\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Hugo Knox says on his Twitter page that he has\u00a0reached mutual agreement to part ways with WWE.
