Why Some NXT Talents Are Reportedly Upset Over How Blue Pants Is Used

Leva Bates, better known to NXT fans as Blue Pants, has made quite a name for herself thanks to the opportunities she’s been given. She’s become a fan favorite an that’s reportedly not sitting well with some in the NXT locker room.

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that there’s some resentment towards Blue Pants due to the fact that she was brought to NXT Takeover: Brooklyn for an angle with Alexa Bliss because any of the other Divas would have loved that opportunity. She’s also apparently getting heat because he’s allowed to sell her own merchandise without WWE taking a cut and since she’s not under contract with the company she doesn’t have to go through daily training at the Performance Center.

Talents are also reportedly unhappy that she’s been able to increase her fee for indie shows because they believe she’s making more money than they are.
