Which of these awesome sports entertainment shows do you enjoy more?
I say sports entertainment because there is a difference between that and pro wrestling. I know pro wresting stuff usually gets wastelanded, but these are awesome, entertaining shows with production value, storylines, performers, and athletic performances.
In the world of sports entertainment, these 2 shows are becoming very impressive stand outs.
NXT
This is in essence, the training and developmental program for people who are trying to graduate to the big stage of WWE's Raw and Smackdown shows.
However, it has been developing into quite the impressive show itself. It's filled with young, talented performers who have been putting on quite an awesome show with their athleticism, charisma, and in ring technique.
Some would argue the NXT roster is more entertaining than the Raw and Smackdown shows, but whether they are or aren't, it just shows how much of an impact they're having on their fans.
It shows exclusively on the WWE network, with an hour long episode every week.
Lucha Underground
Lucha Underground has brought something very special to the world of sports entertainment.
Like NXT, they have a weekly 1 hour long show that takes place in a smaller facility. But while NXT follows a WWE production format, Lucha Underground uses tv show like acting, camera work, directed and scripted scenes to tell its storylines instead of the vignettes and promos that the WWE uses.
While watching it, it feels much like some kind of HBO tv show at times, which makes it very entertaining.
And while in the ring, expect to see some amazing "Lucha" performances. The wrestling is exhilarating to say the least. It airs on the El Rey network.
So which show do you like more? For me personally, it's hard for me to say. I love them both, but I think if I'd have to choose, I'd pick Lucha Underground. They're both pretty damn awesome though.
