Chase U is easily the best part of “NXT” programming. There, I said it.
Taking a peek into a Chase U classroom has become a staple of “NXT” over the past few months, and while I have been thoroughly enjoying those, I have to admit that introducing Jacy Jayne into a classroom setting makes things that much better. From the get-go, I’ve been a fan of the blooming friendship between Jayne and Thea Hail, but seeing her distract Hail by chatting with her and showing her stuff on her phone in true teen drama fashion was a refreshing break and a little bit of fun from an “NXT” that very heavily featured big names like John Cena and Cody Rhodes. I will admit that I haven’t always been the biggest Jacy Jayne fan, but she’s finally found her niche as a mean girl character, a role that is often overdone and isn’t the easiest to pull off.
Andre Chase and Duke Hudson were nothing short of genius either, playing the roles of the stern teacher and the supporting student, respectively, to perfection (as always). I thought this was also a great way to announce that the pair would be competing in the Bada Bing, Bada Boom Tag Team Battle Royal next week, especially given WWE’s fondness for announcing competitors in these types of matches on social media or using graphics.
(Also, don’t tell anyone, but I’ll secretly be rooting for the two of them to win whilst fulfilling my live coverage duties next week.)
