The WWE Pros discussed the NXT Rookies
Before casting their critical Pros’ Poll votes, the WWE Pros discussed the NXT Rookies. The WWE Pros told the WWE Universe what it takes to be WWE’s next breakout Superstar who will earn a future championship match on a WWE pay-per-view.

Justin Gabriel def. Heath Slater
After coming off losses the previous week, NXT Rookies Justin Gabriel and Heath Slater faced off in singles action, hoping to make one last impression on the WWE Pros before the Pros’ Poll. With his WWE Pro, Matt Hardy, at ringside cheering him on, Gabriel hit a perfectly-timed 450 Splash on The One-Man Rock Band for the win in the highly-competitive, offense-heavy match. After the match, the NXT Rookies and WWE Pros Hardy and Christian shook hands in a sign of good sportsmanship. Gabriel’s record was upped to 6-3, while Slater’s dropped to 5-5.

Matt Hardy recently did an intevriew with Slam Sports! answering questions about his future plans,his NXT rookie and so on:

Matt Hardy is eagre to hit the Canadian Maritimes this weekend and continue his feud with Drew McIntyre.

“I’m especially fond of Halifax -- we had a lot of good crowds up there. It’d be nice to actually be able to spend a few days up there and have some pleasure instead of work, but that's not the case this time.”

Hardy noted he doesn’t get to see most of the cities in which he wrestles, which will be especially true during this tour.

“We’ll fly in tomorrow... Rey Mysterio’s my riding buddy, we’ll likely end up getting a bite to eat, go train, go to the show, grab some food. Then the next day, we have a one o’clock show in Moncton and then a seven o’clock show in St. John. So there probably won’t even be time to train that day. It’s gonna be very busy and hectic while we’re up there.”

Hardy and the rest of the SmackDown roster will also visit Ottawa next week Tuesday for TV tapings. He has been with the brand for nearly a year since being traded there from RAW, and is looking forward to a much more injury-free year than he had in 2009.
