Good match. Seemed shorter than I expected it to be.

Having just a 5-match card and 2.5 to 3 hours per TakeOver helps a lot but on the flip side, I personally think NXT has too many extra long matches for TakeOver shows or follow a very similar routine.

They always have 1-2 matches per show that go on way longer than it should and/or devolve into a spam fest for moves and finishers. Like Gargano matches are the type I've soured on the most since they've felt like very forced epics these days, especially once HBK started having a bigger hand in them, even though the matches are also almost always great.

Sepholio 02-14-2021 09:30 PM

Yea they def overdo the long match. But at the same time if these guys can consistently put on these kinds of performances in these long matches then I really can't complain.

Evil Vito 02-14-2021 09:30 PM

Very good main. Gargano/KUSHIA was MOTN with the Dusty men’s final a close second but a really fun show all around.

Emperor Smeat 02-14-2021 09:30 PM

NXT Title match was great although surprised it was a bit short compared to NXT's usual length for main event matches.

This might have been the best NXT TakeOver event these past couple year.

ADAM COLE HAS SNAPPED, BAY BAY

Evil Vito 02-14-2021 09:33 PM

Good, Adam Cole back to heel where he belongs Bay Bay

slik 02-14-2021 09:33 PM

NXT has better camera angles than RAW/SD

Emperor Smeat 02-14-2021 09:34 PM

:lol: at the random Adam Cole heel turn.

Guess Pat McAfee really isn't come back any time soon.

Was long overdue but glad UE are likely splitting up now since they've been mostly stale in NXT these past few couple years outside of some brief moments.

Supreme Olajuwon 02-14-2021 09:37 PM

Who from WWE watches these Takeovers and as like “hey should we do this on Raw and Smackdown” and is like “nah”

Sepholio 02-14-2021 09:39 PM

So I'm guessing Balor v Cole is gonna be on the WM card then.

Emperor Smeat 02-14-2021 09:42 PM

That's the second TakeOver in a row Balor has main evented that ended with him not being the focal point for the show closing moment.

Tonight had Cole's heel turn and the one before at TakeOver 31 ended with the Cole & Ridge Holland ringside antics.

Just watched the MSK match (fell asleep before it)... they rule

Supreme Olajuwon 02-14-2021 09:54 PM

Wes Lee is a goddamn superstar. Basically the next Kofi or Booker T

Supreme Olajuwon 02-14-2021 09:55 PM

That’s right Montez Ford, you’re getting leapfrogged

Flip those two and that's how I'm currently leaning towards at the moment from tonight's show.

Nothing wrong with Gargano vs. KUSHIDA but think I'm just a bit tired of the format or routine with Gargano's TakeOver matches these days. Still would rather watch his matches than what WWE typically offers for big PPV matches these days though.

This sounds shit.

It was quite good, coming from someone who rarely watches as I couldn't care less for the product these days.

Eh, things just happen. All these tournaments just make me think of how none of the previous winners have ever mattered. Then you’ve got Adam Cole throwing superkicks and making it glaring obvious he’s not Shawn Michaels.

I’m sure everyone tried hard.

GD 02-15-2021 03:29 PM

Nothing matters, it's sports entertainment.

Although, if they kept track of wins and losses, AND used that as some faux rating system, well it's like somehow they could then tell us it's sports based and serious. It's genius! :rofl:
