NXT Up-And-Comers Potentially Using Social Media Networking

By Rob Sutter


As someone who's interested in seeing how professional wrestling is going to progress from this point, I am all for seeing the future of the business. When it comes to World Wrestling Entertainment, there is no better area to do this than NXT. It's the developmental territory for wrestlers to learn the ropes or simply become polished so that they will be primed for the main shows. In order to get their characters across better, could social media networking prove to be the useful method to take up?

YouTube can do wonders for people can I think that wrestling characters can benefit from it more than just about anyone else. Big E Langston is perhaps the greatest example that I can talk about because I think that most people would consider him to be a silent brute. However, he's constantly proven himself online as a man with an offbeat sense of humor, which is also visible through his Tweets. If Langston has the chance to showcase that humor more on the main shows, he'd be set.

I think that Kassius Ohno stands as another personality who would be able to benefit from online marketing better than most. Many fans of the indies know him as Chris Hero, though what about fans who don't watch such promotions? They wouldn't have any idea of his background, which makes such platforms better. He can keep in touch with those who follow him and, in turn, tell the people more about him from a wrestling standpoint, which is one that isn't just relegated to WWE, either.

It's clear that there are a slew of great female stars as well and a number of them may find social media networking to be a viable method. Paige, to name one instance, a standout for me because even though she's mostly quiet, her personality shows itself in the ring as she competes with such ferocity. In terms of addressing the people, Twitter could prove useful since she's all about keeping her words short and sweet. It's also the kind of platform suggested by firms like fishbat.

It's amazing what the impact of social media networking can have on any entity. It can be an entire company or a sole individual; the truth of the matter is that this method is great for helping people express themselves and get them out into the audience. They want to appeal to as many people as possible, so showcasing a degree of personality stands a great chance of helping. It could also bring them a great number of fans when they have the chance to perform on TV.
