Toxic Attraction

[8.0] "During a time when NXT was in a rebuilding phase, especially within its women's division, Toxic Attraction really worked well. Mandy was never one of my favorites during her time on the main roster, but when she came to NXT, I feel like the new location did wonders for her. Gigi & Jacy were never great in the ring, but as far as a tag team support system for Mandy goes, they worked well in their roles. It's unfortunate that Mandy got too full of herself & the faction died when she left the company."

[0.0] "Let's cut the nonsense. That team was awful, and I'm nice. Mandy Rose was one of the worst wrestlers in the company, and her excruciatingly long reign enormously diminished the value of the NXT women's title, which until then had included only excellent wrestlers and quality reigns. The tag team championships gained a little prestige, but the two women took the title hostage rather than making it shine. Average in the ring, with their exaggerated mimics (especially Gigi Dollin) and average charisma (especially Jacky Jayne), Toxic Attraction's reign of terror was truly a reflection of the black and gold brand's collapse. It's hard to say that Mandy progressed so far behind the others, hard to remember a good match from this clan, hard to regret this period. And the end of this era is representative of the quality of the group."

[9.0] "This group didn't have that many problems for me. I thought it was enjoyable while it was around and really did wonders for Dolin and Jayne. You could make the argument that Mandy Rose was pushed too hard, but that only added to the dominance of the group that helped them. Mandy being released over (to be honest, stupid but understandable reasons) is what really killed the group, but Jayne and Dolin continued to tag for a while in a really fun and entertaining team."

[10.0] "Surprised not to see more love here. Toxic Attraction launched Mandy Rose to a dominant run with the NXT WOmen's Championship with Giga Dolin 7 Jacy jayne doing great in the Women's Tag Team Division. A highlight of the NXT product at the time. I think people jsut hate to admit Mandy Rose proved them all wrong during this run?"

[8.0] "They aren't well liked but they did their job well I think. None of them needed to be champions for as long as they were, but still. It elevated all three and has kept Jacy and Gigi afloat post Mandy firing, I wouldn't mind a main roster reunion. Mandy grew into a good champion with her matches against Zoey and Meiko/Blair being great. Gigi and Jacy had some good tag matches with Dakota/Raquel, Io/Zoey, Katana/Kayden, and Roxanne/Wendy. Too bad Gigi has regressed since this but still."

[4.0] "Toxic Attraction had great presentation, but not much else. Mandy Rose as leader absolutely sucked. Her droning, monotone promos were bad not only in delivery, but also content and her matches during her seemingly never ending reign that completely devalued the once prestigious NXT women's title, were awful. Jacy Jayne was an odd choice for the group from the outset as she didn't really fit the gimmick and she didn't bring anything else to the table either. Despite Mandy being the leader, Gigi Dolin was the real star of the group and the only member with talent, but over the course of time her in-ring work really went backwards and she was only ever given tidbits on the mic. Together, Gigi & Jacy were able to have a few decent tag matches, but that's about it. In all honestly, the best thing about Toxic Attraction's run were some of Gigi's outfits, there really isn't much else to look back on fondly."

[4.0] "The grouping on paper turned out to be in fact a trivial collection of stereotypes about bad characters in wrestling, where you need to win only through interventions, where promos are filled with name-calling and where all participants dress as stylishly or defiantly as possible. As a result, this grouping simply exists, and already does not even exist. Many were divided into corners and nothing good would have been expected of them together. When the whole ideology of the group is reduced to bad actions for the sake of bad ones, fans get bored after a month of their terror, and then they lasted more than a year and these are definitely not the best times for NXT."

[3.0] "The concept was... good, the execution is just bad, Mandy Rose is overrate, while Jacy Jayne and Priscilla Kelly are not ready AT ALL."

[10.0] "How Mandy Rose essentially went from spinning her wheels in a tag team with Dana Brooke on Raw before making her comeback to NXT (vibes of Trish Stratus when she made her debut back in 2000) and scouting Jacy Jayne and Gigi Dolin before approaching them with a business proposition. That business proposition became a full blown alliance known as Toxic Attraction and they've taken the women's division by hook and crook with Mandy holding onto the NXT women's championship for over a year and Gigi and Jacy being 2-time women's tag team champions. Hopefully the sky's the limit for Toxic Attraction in the near future."

[10.0] "Impeccable group. The best women's time in WWE history perhaps? Jacy has the debauchery, Gigi the technique and Mandy the beauty and dominance as a champion. They simply rule NXT and are without a doubt the most interesting stable on the brand."

[5.0] "The best things I can say for Toxic Attraction are that they're hot (duh), main roster 'ready', feature an actual women's tag team and Gigi Dolin/Priscilla Kelly is a very good worker. She's got the wrestling skills and charisma which would've shined in black & gold. The cons are everything else - A regression to Divas crap which has dragged the rest of the division down. Mandy Rose as champion has been a disaster. The worst and most undeserving champ in NXT Women's title's history. Crummy matches which end up with some bullshit interference. She is only good enough as a manager or supporting act. She was fine with Sonya Deville as she got by on tag matches. The aura around the stable is annoying with lame simp culture that follows them around from the insufferable 2.0 audience to Wade Barrett's cringe worthy commentary. Get the belt off Mandy and move them to the main roster. Weirdly enough I still think they'd be an asset as long as they're booked accordingly. With HHH back at the helm I'd like to think he sees value in Dolin and Jayne (they were signed in his era after all) and would be wise to keep Mandy strictly as a manager."

[4.0] "Toxic Attraction is what you get when you ask Santa for a slightly better version of the Divas. Sigh. They're not entirely terrible though, they've got some fire to them and at least they're all hot. No pun intended. :P"

[9.0] "HOTTEST stable in WWE right now. These three are $$$ together. I hope they hold all the gold for a long time."

[0.0] "A terrible group, which includes incompetent performers. Mandy Rose is not the level of a wrestler, but the level of a manager, Dolin is not bad, but it's just at the level of Mandy, and I'm not talking about the latter at all..."

[5.0] "A stable that is quite good, the members do well and have their thing in the ring, but the handling they have had is quite hasty, giving them all the titles of the brand in less than 3 months. While they seem to be the future of the brand, over-booking can ruin that."

[8.0] "They fit perfectly together. Seeing Mandy in NXT again is still a bit jarring but she's finally getting the opportunity to show what she's got in the ring and now she's champion. Other two are solid as well but are obviously still pretty green. Great stable that has already made waves in a very short period of time."

[5.0] "They're okay, they have all the gold now, they're in a make or break situation now. There is some talent, but I'm not really sure how they're gonna go."

[7.0] "It's a good idea to pair these three wrestlers together, Toxic Attraction is already a fun heel stable with three charismatic wrestlers who may not be the best workers in history but have a good chemistry together and add a much needed touch of charisma to an NXT roster that likely needs it. Mandy Rose is excellent in this leadership role, she has unmatched charisma and is a good pack leader accompanied by her two accompanying wolves. Dolin & Jayne are a fun tag team too, and I hope to see them win the title next week while hoping to see Mandy win the world title before the end of the year."
