After seeing what creative has done to The Ascension, I fear for anyone else being called up. I thoroughly enjoy the current nxt roster.
|
i was damn surprised by that title switch, but i like it.

Yeah, win one match, get a title shot. You don't need to pay dues in NXT, look at Owens.
|
|
Charlotte is such a bloke it's unreal
|
I really, really don't like Bull Dempsey.
|
i like him more than baron corbin at this point.
|
Corbin doesn't really offend me, I don't like him much, but Dempsey's done absolutely nothing to impress me and he just looks like a fat hairy bloke in a singlet.
|
corbin's navel running pretty much the entire length of his midsection really distracts/bothers me.

Bull is growing on me. NXT allows him at least the appearance of being three-dimensional.

Corbin > Dempsey

I'm getting caught up and watched the last supershow where zany won the title and the owens swerve. my question is....?
is it because I am not familiar with the show and the players that that twist and story seemed so fresh and well done? or is NXT seriously written better than raw? |
Yeah, It's written and booked simpler. It's booked more like a wrestling show rather than sports entertainment.
There's another live special this Wednesday. A little quick to be doing another one but they are going with their hot hand. |

Want the Vaudevillian shirt.

I wouldn't repackage Bull just yet. I'd perhaps consider a face turn, since his sacrifice at the Alter of Corbin has capped his credibility as a heel monster at this point in time. Have CJ Parker come out shortly after Rival and talk about how everyone is raving about this and that (NXT storyline related), but no one is talking about his message, which is larger than NXT and even the WWE. He gives an open challenge to anyone in the back, and Bull answers. People would be more than happy to see Bull flatten Parker.
Then consider a program between Dempsey and Tyler Breeze. I have a feeling that a face turn might be coming for Tyler, so before you pull the trigger with that, have him remark that face Bull is an "uggo," leading to a few matches between them. |
Just watched the past three weeks of NXT.
Tyson Kidd/Neville with another great match. I know Kidd is the bad guy, but I really want him to finally get a win over the dude.... starting to feel bad for him every time he tries. Wesley Blake and Buddy Murphy winning the titles would have been a shocker had it not been spoiled for me. I will say that they have impressed me as a team in their past matches. Don't like that the one dude got rid of his jagged tights or whatever. Loved their entrance, though.... NXT producers very good at using lights/camera moves/whatever to create unique entrances in NXT. |
Also,

Just watched last week's show. Balor/Itami was a good match, but Adrian Neville is really bad on guest commentary and holy shit does Alex Riley not know how to shut the fuck up and get the way out of a match. Like, stop asking the guy who is stupidly awkward on commentary dumbass questions when two dudes are beating the shit out of each other.
|
Riley was able to ask the same question to Neville 20 different ways
|
I'm honestly surprised he didn't ask Neville what he had for breakfast as the back of Itami's head went through the middle turnbuckle.

If there's an NXT thing At Wrestlemania Axxess, Bayley will get a giant pop.

Bayley's hug/high five station at WrestleMania Axxess would be the shit.

Seeing some upside to Blake and Murphy, but I fucking hate their theme.

That Zayn/Owens package was unbelievably good.

Condolences VSG.
I added giant text to the top of the page because I'm sad so many people keep getting heartbroken by ruining the surprise for themselves. It's not like a little "FINN BALOR DID THIS CRAZY NEW MOVE." These are straight up out-of-left-field amazing surprises. |

I'm so fucking excited to see what these spoilers are. I have an idea due to dirt sheets, but I am not going to click to officially confirm my suspicions. If I am right, I will be very happy. Unbelievably happy. I will come in here and write a mini-blog about why it means so much to me, if it does happen.

I hope Rhino gores Lesnar and become world champion.

Jeez.

Neville vs Owens this week was good.
Another round of tapings were done yesterday to cover up to mid-April since the WWE is going to be too busy to do them normally next month. Current plans are for at least one live regular show during Mania weekend. http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/...ring-in-march/ Spoiler on Neville's status: SPOILER: show Spoiler on Balor's status: SPOILER: show |
How is any match on the PPV going to measure up to Neville/Owens now? They done goofed.
|
I've gone from being amazed that NXT shows have consistently been better than any other show in any given week, to disappointed, to now just kind of disgusted. I get that it's not necessarily going to appeal to every taste, but it's not like it's just the in ring product that's better.
I actually kind of wonder how it would be received by the more casual fan-base if there was another Icelandic volcano sort of situation and the crews were stranded overseas and they just put together an impromptu three hour NXT show instead. |
Damn... seems I missed some good spots via me fading in and out of consciousness during the Neville/Owens match....
|
Adrian Neville is a fucking beast.
|
Rhyno is a fucking Man Beast.
|
Becky Lynch is a fucking sexy beast.
|
So much bestiality there!
I kinda feel bad for CJ Parker who's the default jobber to introduce new comers to NXT now. But I wasn't really impressed with Solomon Crowe's debut myself. I know the guy is pretty good though so will be optimistic. Even knowing the spoilers, I marked out hard at Rhyno and the gore :D |
Big Cass has a wrinkly ass, HOW YOU DOIN?
|
Solomon Crowe was not what I was expecting. I was expecting him to come off more...sleek. You know, given the hacker gimmick and all. Still, I'm excited to see him pound CJ Parker. I don't really feel sorry for him. He reminds me of The Miz -- he's able to talk, he looks enough the part, and he's not atrocious in the ring -- but he's just not compelling. I feel his current role is perfect for him until he finds some sort of traction.
I actually think he's main roster ready, in the sense that if he did his current shtick on the main shows, he'd be good enough. Throwing out a random idea for him though -- how about a team with Brad Maddox as some sort of heel millenials? |
Pretty pumped for Blake & Murphy vs. Enzo & Cass. Since she gets good heat, I'm wondering if Carmella turns on Enzo & Cass and does join Blake & Murphy. It'd give them something over their face challengers, and could make their program quite the personal one. In the meantime, debut Shoot Nation and put together that team of Parker & Maddox.
|
Really looking forward to Bayley vs. Becky. And the rematch between Sasha Banks and Charlotte. I hope they do Banks & Carmella vs. Emma & Blue Pants too.
|
Not sure that Rhyno is moving towards a program with Finn Balor or he was just walking through a promo in a "anyone could be next" sense. Would love to see Rhyno vs. Hideo Itami.
|
Kevin Owens is WWE's answer to Walter White; doing bad things for good reasons, not caring who gets hurt in the process.
Who's gonna be his Jesse? |

WWE.com has posted a new article looking at the former WWE stars they would like to see make a return in NXT, following the returns of Rhyno and The Brian Kendrick. You can check out the article at the link provided; the list is as follows:
* Chris Masters * Tajiri * Shelton Benjamin * Victoria * Jason Albert * Carlito * Michelle McCool * John Morrison I'm cool with all of them except Benjamin and Morrison. Their return would be better on the the main roster. |
Why wouldn't you be cool with Shelton Benjamin and John Morrison coming back?

I love how Kevin Owens got mad at Alex Riley. Good stuff.
|
Surely attacking Riley is a face turn?
|
It is a face turn to me, and don't call me Shirley
|
Then again it IS Riley after all, pretty sure everyone hates him.

blue pants should accompany tyler breeze and hold his selfie stick

With NXT giving older talent a chance to come back and work with younger guys, the WWE should give Rico a call and have him start as an ally of Tyler Breeze, but then move into a blood-feud with him.
|
I love Sasha's shit talk mid match
|
I also love condescending Emma
|
|
They could just not use that taping, they've done it before
|
Need to update the thread title..
"..and Ohio!" They taped the show in Columbus and it's going up at some point SPOILER: show |
They're doing with NXT what they should have done with the rebooted ECW. It would have been much better if they did separate tapings in smaller venues.
|
Done
|
NXT House Show for some strange reason decided to include a random Big Show vs Ryback match.
According to reports this is what got chanted during said match: Quote:

Charlotte

Some random things and thoughts about the Columbus NXT show. Does not include every match... May contain spoilers if you intend on going to the Cleveland show...
SPOILER: show |
That show sounds amazing. I feel like if it were up to Triple H, Cesaro would be used so much better than he is now. He seemed to understand Cesaro's importance to NXT, and he put him over Neville, who has been one of the most strongly booked talents in the world, even though Cesaro is a heel.
I find it odd that Riley was basically squashed by the sounds of things. It seems like they are trying to make a deal out of him on NXT television. |
Apparently the Neville vs. Cesaro match is being taped for an NXT DVD release. NXT seems legitimately more successful than TNA and ROH at this point.
|
I'm hoping they bring Samoa Joe in (with his name intact) to finally be the guy to dethrone Owens somewhere down the line.

Riley's promo this week was really good. I couldn't stand him at the desk most of the time, but it's cool to see a dude keep fighting to get to do what he loves to do, and he seemed legitimately overwhelmed afterwards. Good for him.
|
It's fun to see Alexa Bliss improve every time she is out there
|
Did she get new music this week?
Her theme sounded different and it was a while since her last appearance but don't remember if it was changed earlier. |
