The NXT Thread Is Like Ring of Honor's Bay-Bay!
- Thread starter Uncle Sam
- Start date
People who still dislike The Ascension are either po-faced or stupid. Or both.
WWE's Twitter of all things spoiled the result of the main event triple threat for me, so I'll be watching the show (am, in fact, watching the show - on the opposite side of the screen to where I'm typing) without any sort of tension.
Crowd chanting "This is awesome!" during The Ascension's match makes me think the post I read about "the crowd being so bored by The Ascension that they created chants for them" might just have been the most obvious bullshit thing I've ever read.
The crowd even prefers them to the Luchas or whatever the fuck their name is - the faces.
Hilarious promo though.

The main event was good.
Tyson Kidd's flying elbow drop is approximately fifty times better than CM Punk's. I think we can now safely say that being able to do a good flying elbow drop doesn't make you a great professional wrestler.
It's actually eerily familiar. I'm sure The Ascension will get into the rape threats once they get more time with a microphone.
Kidd was the least obvious choice to face Neville at Takeover and I just don't see him ever coming out the victor. Breeze or Zayn would have been more believable as next NXT champion material. Either way, I'm sure Sami will have an opponent, and that excites me.

It’s the go home show for Takeover next week so odds are we’re going to be seeing a lot about Tyson Kidd tonight. The other main story coming into tonight is the last chance for Bo Dallas. He’s facing Big E. tonight and if he wins, he gets a future shot at the NXT Title. If he loses though, he’s done in NXT forever. The ending should be fairly obvious at this point, but the reaction should be awesome. Let’s get to it.

Some results from a recent show by a long term fan that may give us a peak into what's coming:
Opinions
Simon Gotch is such a perfect fit with Aidan English as an old timey duo. He's a fantastic worker too especially if he keeps the "Gentlemen Bruiser" gimmick.
Kendall Skye has been signed for a while(Longer than Sasha I think) and reportedly has extremely stiff kicks a lá D-Bry's. I've seen pictures of her executing the face buster finisher and it looks brutal.
Are they actually gonna go ahead and push Camacho? I like the guy and he's pretty impressive but he needs 1. A new name & 2. Better fucking ring gear. Call him "THE MOST DANGEROUS MOTHERFUCKER ON THE PLANET's son"
ENZO AMORE IS BACK!!! Let us rejoice and note our next tag champs.
I want Mojo & CJP to get long lasting injuries, preferably in a match against one another.

There's a (not bad) match between Sami Zayn and Adrian Neville that happened as a dark match before Main Event (moving up in the world):

Wikipedia tells me it's a senton. When I have to Wikipedia a finisher, it's a bad sign.

But hey, Jim Cornette said he doesn't have "It" so he should obviously be released.
That cruiserweight should cruiser-wait Jack.
Stay here while I get an unfunny joke about Sami Zayn and El Generico being different people.
Edit: So, uh, when's Takeover start?
