Anyone who has followed WWE’s NXT knows it is a platform to test new talents not only on the wrestling ring but also on screen as performers. It started in 2010 as a television program which aired on different networks over the years, and some may wonder how some individuals got here? WWE Next Gen aims to answer that, and show how tough it is to become a celebrity wrestling superstar. It’s really about how to present yourself to others and anyone watching this reality TV program may well learn a thing or two on when it’s okay to be a douche and when it’s not.

Unlike past talents who fought tooth and nail to the top, before the WWE existed, these recruits have the assistance of industry legends like Shawn Michaels, Big E, and Matt Bloom to help mentor them. Morgan Belvedere is not from their world, and she’s a different type of intermediary. They are here to see if Brayden Ray, Breanna Covington, Jonah Niesenbaum, Caleb Kelly, Nicky Rodriguez, Julian Baldi, Christyan Reid, Kevin Feder, Aaron Jenkins, Sara Fiorvento, Kennedy Smith, Lina Ducharme, Taylor Arenz, Keyshawn Leflore, Olena Sadovska, and Darrel Mason have what it takes.

Conjuring Kesha Isn’t All That Scary or Compelling

Conjuring Kesha isn’t all that compelling. The places this singer and friends visit are chosen because this hostess wants to go there with little preparation beforehand!

Kesha wants to be more than a musician these days. Now, she’s a wannabe ghost hunter in Conjuring Kesha—if that’s what she is doing. Instead of entertaining listeners with her good vibrations, she wants to make it weird. All she’s getting from these visits is the experience of getting spooked. This pseudo Reality TV program is allegedly a continuation of this singer’s short-lived podcast, Kesha and the Creepies, and if this show is any indication, I can’t wait to see her appear in the cartoon series, Scooby-Doo and Guess Who? (should it get a third season).

I suspect the idea to produce both series didn’t come to mind after appearing in The Haunting of eight years ago. She presented herself differently and I like this show more. It’s a lot more realistic than what’s shown in Conjuring Kesha. This new show feels like, in essence, to be very much like The Osbournes: Night of Terror.

Before this occupational switch, she’s an EDM superstar. Because of this, I knew she would eventually sing. However, I can’t tell if her voice will wake the dead. To be fair, I had to watch more than four episodes to see if that’d happen. Instead, the last two episodes saw her go camping in the woods at Mount Shasta, where she hopes to meet bigfoot! It’s a shame she didn’t go visit Devil’s Tower, where it served as a backdrop to Close Encounters of the Third Kind. She would have better luck for a supernatural meet-up there!

The latest concerns the Odd Fellows Lodge in Illinois–to which I doubt all the meeting places are equally haunted. Nothing was said about how this association has Lodges everywhere around the world and they aren’t necessarily a secret society. I have to wonder what other members elsewhere thinks. Between this outing (which offers nothing new when compared to other paranormal reality tv shows) and past, I can’t say I’ll bother with the finale, unless we hear from the news she’s quit because of some recent encounter giving her grey hair.
