Many people say he has black hole of charisma.he was even demoted to NXT.why is he in RAW now.
He is such a big waste of tv time.

Anybody saying he's only getting tv time because of Total Divas must've missed the fact that he's playing his NXT heel character and that he's gotten more tv time in a week than the first 2 seasons of Total Divas.

He's earned whatever exposure he's getting by being one of the best ring workers in the company and completely reinventing his character. Since NXT Tyson Kidd has been very entertaining. Fact. If you haven't seen his NXT work your opinion on him doesn't matter. Fact.

Let's be real = Kidd has gotten better, yes, but Swagger is better in just about every single way save for mic skills and even then that's not saying much.

He's cultivated a good character down in NXT, but I don't think WWE will transfer it well outside of TD angles.

I reckon his ceiling is about the role Miz has at the moment, if he can get his NXT heel persona working on the main roster, which is a big if at the moment. Mid card heel working with the US and IC title matches. Think how good his matches could be with Ziggler, Sheamus, and the likes of Zayn, Neville, Kenta and Devitt when they get up to the main roster.

To get that spot he has to be cutting the type of promos and showing the same character he has in NXT and evolve it. There is no issues with his ring work.

I think the thread should be called "Why are they only starting to push Tyson Kidd now?"

It's obvious OP doesn't watch NXT, if he did he'd know that Tyson is an amazing wrestler.

Because he has been great in NXT and found a way to rejuvenate his career.

Nattie's husband deserves this. You have no idea what you're talking about. And he's just being featured, not exactly being pushed, so what's the harm? He single handedly makes any Total Diva related segment bearable.

EDIT: Holy shit Spanky posted my signature in the previous post :lmao

At least part of it has to do with his involvement on Total Divas. A good portion of the segments he ends up on in RAW are diva related and Total Divas related, at least sort of. I think Tyson Kidd has a lot of wrestling talent and could be a solid mid card or upper mid card guy if he finds his own voice and starts building his character more.

I don't think going down into the main event scene of NXT is a demotion. I think it's better than working 5 minute matches on Raw or Smackdown in some cases and much better than getting no TV time like Kidd was. Obviously you don't want to stay down there forever but it's a really good spot to demonstrate how good you are and galvanise a career. I think Cesaro's momentum starter last year was working with Zayn and then going into the Real Americans. Same with Kidd.

How he is used on the main roster I'm not sure. There are several rosters on the main roster who I think would benefit from going down to NXT for a few months and doing what Kidd and Cesaro, although he was slightly different, have done. Fandango for one and the Big E, Xavier and Kofi stable.

You're right, actually, completely different styles and you're expecting totally different performances from both. I guess my reasoning is in relation to other wrestlers with a similar style as Kidd, he doesn't seem nearly as versatile or progressive and more of his impressiveness comes from the other talents in the match.
