Just caught up on like two months of NXT in time for tomorrow...... not that I will be able to watch Takeover anyways, since I will be at work.
I skipped a lot of matches, like the squash matches and whatnot..... but watched a lot...
- I love Sanity..... they seem good.....
- I am still very indifferent to TM61..... still seem very "generic", but at least they are wearing tights with colours now instead of just black. Adds some semblance of trying not to be generic. Just seems like there is "no reason to like them" other than we are told "they are good".
- Not a fan of Roderick Strong, hopefully he can turn me around..... I don't have much experience seeing him. Saw him in TNA ages ago in a team with Austin Aries and thought both were so generic at the time......... Have seen more of Aries since then and he has turned me around, but have not seen Strong since then, but so far he seems generic......
- I like the Authors of Pain, seem like good "monsters" and have a lot of power behind them. I think Ellering needs to talk more and really put them over as much as Heyman does for Lesnar. Tokka and Rahzar could have a bright future as a team.
- Overall, the whole tournament doesn't feel "as big" as last year.... A lot of the teams were "makeshift" (and some even debuting) and a lot of injuries (uncontrollable), and Revival forfeiting is dumb....
- Impressed with Aliyah kinda, want to see more of her..... Liv Morgan improving, but still don't get into her character..... Think these two both need "more character" if they are to be part of the future of the division.....
- Billie Kay and Peyton Royce seem good..... Billie Kay seems a bit awkward, and I loved her first theme (the classical opera or whatever) more than her current one......
- I like Cien Almas as a heel.... seemed to play the role good in that match this past week.... also made him ten times more interesting.....
