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

[Nate DaMac]

It's been said before but the women in NXT absolutely CRUSH the women on the main roster. AJ and maybe Natty included.

And because it hasn't been said enough, Sin Cara fucking sucks.

 

[Uncle Sam]

He's still better than original Sin Cara. Everybody in that match was a few seconds behind the pace. Somehow.

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Still not sold on Blake and Murphy. We need new teams.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Brilliant call by Corey Graves trying to cover for when they utterly BLEW a headscissors spot badly during that match

"What a great counter, Murphy saw him coming"


Cole and the boys would have NEVER been able to pull that off. Then again, you cant expect a traffic cop to keep his wits if a shootout breaks out

Graves is good at the commentary role, the only thing that was bugging me was that he would criticize the guys any time the didn't immediately follow up a move. That always bugs me when commentators do that, especially when someone is either clearly exhausted or clearly setting for a bigger move.

I caught that too. Good stuff fro. Graves as per the norm though I was starting to turn against him when he kept repeating himself about not going for pins, particularly during that match which was probably the weakest of the evening.

Also loved the finish to main event and from the looks of things, we may be in for Balor vs. Owens straight up without Sami given last night's angle and his apparent going to the middle east with the main roster. Can't wait for the comeback, but can't wait for Balor/Owns either.

 

[Nate DaMac]

Oh yeah, Balor has the best theme music on the roster. NXT or main show. I fucking love that song.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Somebody on NXT's Facebook page said they refused to call Owens anything but Kevin Steen and then explained that he had to tone down his moveset because nobody in WWE, including Sami Zayn presumably, was tough enough to "bump" for it and I threw up in my mouth a bit.

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

Soooooo

Spoiler

Rhyno showed up.

I get caught in the trap of calling a lot of the indy guys by their old names (Claudio will always be Claudio), but the rest of that is moronic.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Full Sail's moment of glory was when the guy chanting "We want KENTA!" got booed and drowned out by "Hid-e-o!" chants.

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Indeed, truly a show of support.

Thread title should be "Don't Stop Sami Breathing."

 

[justinsayne]

The crowd reactions to that match were fantastic.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Does it always take this fucking long to get to Wednesday? Not that it matters now that my hero is dead.

 

[Baller]

Was at the Smackdown tapings tonight:

Lucha Dragons we're on main event and got a pretty nice reaction. Bull Dempsey worked a dark match and got no reaction whatsoever. Hopefully this doesn't mean Bull is getting called up soon

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Bull Dempsey is the worst man.

 

[Baller]

Bull Dempsey is the worst man.

So bad. Thankfully he lost in like 3 minutes.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Hopefully this doesn't mean Bull is getting called up soon

Why would you say such things? If he gets called up, he won't be on NXT anymore.

 

[nightmare]

Only positive from that is now more fans will have the chance to chant "SHIT!" after each time his song says "BULL!"


When that is the highlight of your match, you may as well choose another line of work.

 

[Baller]

Good point.

 

[justinsayne]

Bull Dempsey is the worst man.

Have you forgotten about Blojo Rawley already?

 

[nightmare]

Apparently he stays hyped by not being on TV each week & that is whats best for business.



Thanks Hunter.

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Dempsey and Rawley have to be two of the other worst to ever grace NXT TV for an extended period of time.

Mojo could've been tolerable, but that finish is absolutely atrocious.
