If you haven’t seen one of the most exciting shows on television, Sept. 2 at 8 p.m. may be a good time to start watching CW’s NXT, where stars like Jaida Parker fight for the top spot.

“Be nice to me, I’ll be genuine but the minute you cross a line with me and get in the way of what I’ve been busting my butt for my entire life. It’s either going to be me or you and it’s not going to be me,” Parker said.

Scott sat down with numerous stars like champ Oba Femi, one of the most powerful wrestlers, who is trying to change a stereotype.

“The current big man is a lumbering buffoon who is gifted an opportunity solely for the way he looks, I am here to tell the fans it’s more than that. A big man can talk, can wrestle, has charisma, can cut a promo, can hold a program, there’s more...I’m not here just because of the way I look.”

These stars will be profiled in the coming weeks on Going Ringside as they continue to astonish fans around the globe.

Lola Vice said she’s staying true to herself as her popularity grows.

“I think fame...once you get to know yourself, no one’s opinions...wrestling is subjective...stay confident in who you are...nothing matters,” Vice said.

At the end of the day, they know they need to keep entertaining the fans and that’s what truly matters.

Going Ringside is coming to CW 17 on Sept. 23 at 7:30 p.m. and will air every Tuesday night right before NXT. The CW debut will have one of Hulk Hogan’s final interviews before he died.
