The NXT Thread Is Like Ring of Honor's Bay-Bay!

[Baller]

It's one thing to not go over right away, it's another to wait a few seconds until well after the move was over to begin the bump. It wasn't a botch, it was an atrocity. Titus didn't get over right away, but Abrose and Rollins kept at it and sent him over. Bullshit Dempsey just took a bump by himself on live television.

Couple that with his complete lack of ability to have a somewhat decent match and he needs to go.

Mojo and Ryder could easily get a main roster tag title reign if they get time to speak. They're fun to watch enter and the crowd still loves Zack.

 

[Coco]

He fell down because he was fat.

This was pre-Bullfit. It's called character development.

 

[Stormtrooper]

Umm... you did go off on this little rant about him like a year ago...

.

Ahh.

Yeah I totally forgot about that. Still stand by what I said it was atrocious and, while he stuck around for a while, he got bumped way down and forgotten about. Sure the Bull Fit stuff was funny but he was nothing but a jobber and not a very good one at that.

Covered your tracks rather well there.

Apparently Finn Balor was injured at last nights NXT Nashville show

 

[Coco]

Hopefully leads to him having a primary finish other than the double stomp. Bloody Sunday will do in a pinch.

And so the injury curse trickles down to NXT.

Ladies and gentlemen, the two superstars who will carry WWE for the next ten years:

That is the best thing I've seen in a long time.

 

[Blade]

I ship them so hard.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Don't or I'll have to rub your nose in it. It's the only way you'll learn to stop.

THIS.

They were having too much fun and Bayley's impression was spot on. Great stuff.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Additionally, I've only watched the first forty-five seconds of this video, but it features The Boss and Bayley doing MVP and Steve Blackman's entrances respectively:

Does anyone think that this incarnation of NXT will produce anyone who can match or surpass the success that Daniel Bryan had on the main roster?

Sami could as could Balor or Owens but I wonder if wear and tear on their bodies will take the same kind of toll. That in addition to the perfect storm that created the Yes movement from Hell No through to Summerslam and Mania probably will never be recreated.

 

[Coco]

Sami is an eighteen-second loss to Sheamus away from superstardom.

 

[Blade]

Bryan started on NXT. Technically. #relevance

Sami and Finn are going end up in a race to determine who's bigger on the main roster. But it's inevitably going to end in a Cena vs Batista situation, where one is undeniably bigger than the other, and the other has to turn heel as a result.

 

[MCMG]

Then Finn is possibly going to have the advantage of Gallows and Anderson, won't he? Harder to overlook three guys than it is one.

I think Balor has a better chance of being a permanent "top guy". Wyatt/Owens level and he is definitely good enough. Sami is undoubtedly better and is more likely to be a World Champ. That is a little contradictory but I feel Balor will be booked better. Sami will just be better.

Many moons ago and recent. Two of the best talents and friends I know. @wwebalor @ShinsukeN

I know

I think Balor will have the longer & more relevant career in the company but Zayn is almost certainly going to be more popular. I'm not sure if anyone is going to surpass that those two should reach.

Owens should, Nakamura could if he gets the language. I'd like to hope that Gable and Jordan get close too.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I Googled "Nakamura speaks English" because I keep hearing he speaks English. Sure enough, I found a link to him cutting a promo in English. Sure enough, because of a copyright claim, the audio in the video has been muted. Helpful.

Here Sam...

Here's a video which features him doing an interview with MVP in English(Nakamura appears around the 12:20 mark of the video):

NXT
Date: February 10, 2016
Location: CFE Arena, Orlando, Florida
Commentators: Tom Phillips, Corey Graves

We’re on the road again and in this case we have a big main event with Bayley defending the Women’s Title against her friend Carmella. This isn’t quite on the level of the Takeover shows and title shots but the big TV shows are almost always good with this hopefully being no exception. Let’s get to it.

Cameron might be the only person to actually get worse at wrestling after going to NXT.

 

[Coco]

The intro to Corbin's entrance looked great this week.
