Al.com has an interview with Titus O'Neil, who was promoting Tuesday's SmackDown taping at the BJCC in Birmingham, Alabama. Below are a couple of highlights:

The evolution of NXT:

"The whole set-up of WWE and NXT, from the WWE Performance Center, which is state of the art, one of the top facilities in all of sports and entertainment -- if anybody gets an opportunity to walk through those doors, then they automatically qualify themselves to come up on the main roster and be successful. We have some very talented individuals, both on the main roster and the NXT roster. Any given day, any of them girls and guys can come up and be successful. The evolution of NXT being an international brand now, they get an opportunity to feel crowds. Before, we didn't have that. Most of our matches were in much smaller crowds and arenas. I'm very happy to see all these guys and girls doing well. I came up along with them. When you know the hard work they put in, as a teammate you definitely want to root for that person."

His favorite tag team of all time:

"I have two. It'd be the New Age Outlaws as well as the Rock 'N Sock Connection. Mainly because of the entertainment value that both of those teams brought to the table. That's what people remember them by. They were phenomenal athletes and great wrestlers, but they had a charisma and an energy unlike any other tag team on the roster at the time that they were doing it. It made for very entertaining television and very good storytelling. That's what what me and Darren pride ourselves in doing, being the roughest-toughest but also being the most entertaining tag team on the roster."

Titus also discussed winning Celebrity Dad of the Year, advice for people wanting to enter the business, WWE fans and more. You can read the full interview by clicking here.
