Bo Dallas has been the NXT Champion now since May after defeating Big E Langston for the belt. Big E made his way to the main roster and it was time to pass the gold on. Many fans and critics have been quite vocal in the fact that Dallas isn't deserving of the belt.
At the NXT television tapings at Full Sail fans boo Dallas profusely when he comes out. The chant "No More Bo", along with "Boring" and stand up and turn their backs to the ring. He was once a baby-faced fan favorite but since winning the belt the tide has shifted.
He comes from wrestling bloodline and family. He's a third generation wrestler, his grandfather being BlackJack Mulligan, his father being the I.R.S. Man, Mike Rotunda. His uncle is one of my childhood favorites, Barry Windham. His brother is the WWE Superstar, Bray Wyatt. Dallas' ring skills are solid, but some feel he has the belt simply because of his bloodline.
Dallas is young at the age of only 24. He's been wrestling in the WWE developmental territory since 2008. He is technically already main roster if you look at WWE.com. He had a DUI in 2011, which in most stars cases put them on the back burner. Alex Riley, Jack Swagger, and Jimmy Uso were all the fast track to being stars and champions, but DUIs put an end to that. Yes they are all on the roster still but for the most part are now being used as jobbers. Dallas' career progress wasn't hindered one bit by his.
I guess time will tell if he is going to live up to the huge expectations of the WWE. Maybe we as fans will come to see what the company sees in him. Personally I like him, I think he's nice guy with a lot of talent but is still young in the game. He is a natural in the ring. It's been two months since he won the belt so I give it about another month or two and we will see a new NXT champ. The big question now is who will that be? I have feeling it's gonna be Sami Zayn who finally gives us "No More Bo".
