NXT was real good this week, having Owens really added something extra. Great match between Dunne and O'Reilly.

Dave, we don’t talk about NXT around these parts.

I don't have any video of it, and sorry for the spoiler but it's not like anyone watches Main Event here anyways... but can someone explain to me why Jeff Hardy is facing Ricochet on Main Event? And can anyone explain to me why Elias sang through the entire 8 minute match? And why Ricochet won? Shouldn't this at the very least be on Raw?

WWE |
Considering the recent rumors of Vince McMahon barely having a clue on what to do for shows these past few weeks, I don't think even him nor WWE knows.
|
The best part is how Elias just sang one continuous song the entire match and ran outta shit to sing so he just repeatedly sang "hes going down" over and over for the last 4 min of the match
|
main event sounds like a hoot i may have to start watching it again
|
I suggest watching the match if you can find it for the WTF of it all. I dl'd mine from XWT
|
They probably have some sort of international contract coming up and want to get it renewed for several million.
Making it some liberated “do whatever the fuck you guys want” kind of show could make it a fun grab on the Network. |
It’s probably more that that segment sounds awful and would drag Raw down.

I don't like that Mauro treats everything as a '10'.
When you treat everything like it's special then nothing is special. |
he was really the only WWE commentator I could stomach, everyone else comes off as stock characters that all have the same inflections and verbiage
everyone else just sound so canned to me |
I really liked Tom Phillips for a while but he's now morphed into that Michael Cole 'robotic and unnatural' form WWE seems to adore.
Really enjoying Tony Schiavone/Excalibur in AEW and I always like when Tazz joins commentary. |
yeah I think my favorite over the past few years was Kevin Kelly and Don Callis, though I do really enjoy AEW's commentary

Ian Riccaboni of ROH is the best commentator today.

Well, he did make it to Wrestlemania as part of the "The New Breed."

In WWE, he was like the proto-Mauro on RAW but without any of the charm mainly because of Cole & Lawler working against him the whole time he was in RAW's booth. |
I remember Matt Striker's trunks well.

Hello!
|
I remember internet fans turning on Striker when he started to bring up historically incorrect facts on commentary.
|
I believe he would've been more palatable if he wore trunks while doing commentary.

Fav Matt Striker moment. Cena was the ref in Orton/Barrett and if Orton won he was fired, if Barrett won he was free from the Nexus.

Riccaboni is excellent.

I think the internet loved Striker at first because they felt he was "one of us"
But do you remember the episode of Seinfeld where Jerry dates "female Jerry" played by Janeane Garafalo. He thinks dating a female version of himself is great at first but ends up dumping her because he finds her annoying. That's what happened to Striker. |
Striker is unbearable. His Lucha Underground work was atrocious.

I do like that NXT has matches to determine who has the entry advantage in War Games. Everybody knows the heels will win them because the heels have to have the advantage for the story of War Games to make any sense but it's better than just having the heels magically win the coin toss every single time.

NXT got hit with another coronavirus situation since according to Fightful, at least one top star recently tested positive for it.
If its just this one person, then the chances of another outbreak happening at the Performance Center seems to be low based on stuff mentioned about the person. Quote:

I really do think that once the pandemic is over, I’m going to make it a point to watch the first Raw, SD, NXT, Dynamite, Dark, Impact, ROH etc back with a full audience. Doesn’t matter if the show is good or bad, I just want to see the reactions everyone has as they step through the curtain.

Sting never drew outside 1997. Vince probably didn’t want to pay him enough money to be 60 and on the roster, so he’s taking Tony’s money to be a mascot.

Almost everything about that Charlotte vs. Rhea feud was probably the closest to main roster booking mentality NXT has reached ever since the start of their USA Network Era. Not only was Charlotte a huge bust in terms of being a ratings magnet for the brand, it also knee capped the momentum NXT's women's division had at the time and also severely knee capped the momentum and top star rise Rhea had built up since last year's WarGames event. Not even Keith Lee's Double Champ reign was as bad of a swing and miss as that feud was for Rhea. |

From being a legit finisher with massive height to a finisher that was a barely credible hop. No wonder he started using the wmd. :| |

I didn't realize takeovers got moved to Sundays
|
WWE started doing that either late last year or earlier this year.
The idea being WWE wanted to use Saturdays for specials like Starrcade while TakeOvers got elevated to main roster PPV status for Sundays whenever NXT wasn't piggybacking on WWE PPV weekends. Those WWE Network specials on Saturdays were also meant to piggyback on Sunday TakeOver events prior to the coronavirus pandemic messing up WWE's plans. |

GCW's Slime Season show ended up being pretty enjoyable although also might have had the worst production for a GCW show I've ever seen.
Constant audio issues from start to finish with the commentary mics and show audio in general. |
