goodhelmet Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 This is what is on the show tonight... Kevin Owens debut The Ascension vs. Itami & Balor Charlotte vs. Sasha Banks The Lucha Dragons vs. The Vaudevillains Sami Zayn vs. Adrian Neville This show could be great or a complete disaster. I haven't decided which one yet. Still going to check it out. Quote
hammerva Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Love the over-reaction to how popular Itami was in Japan. Albert saying he was as popular in the level of Ric Flair. What the fuck does that make Kobashi and Misawa then So Graves does retire and is now a commentator for NXT. Which makes Albert and Graves the creepiest looking tandem in wrestling announcing Quote
Timbo Slice Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Corey Graves retires but is now an announcer. Quote
Timbo Slice Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 So Owens is actually gonna wrestle tonight? Awesome. Quote
Coffey Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Thanks for the thread, Goodhelmet. What makes you think it could be a disaster? I'm really excited for this show tonight! I expect Sami Zayn Vs. Adrian Neville to be really good. I'm excited for the Kevin Owens debut. Charlotte Vs. Sasha could be pretty decent too. Quote
goodhelmet Posted December 12, 2014 Author Report Posted December 12, 2014 I think all of the matches have a chance of being entertaining but I have reservations on all of them. If everything falls the wrong way as I point out below then I could see it being a thumbs down show. - I am interested to seeing Balor & Itami in the NXT ring but have zero faith in the Ascension. - have liked most of the Divas matches in NXT but I don't ever bank on a Divas match making a show. - The Kevin Owens debut is something I am looking forward to but I have seen great Steen matches and spotty dogshit Steen matches, - Never seen the Vaudevillains and I don't have faith in the WWE producing lucha matches. - I have not been impressed with NEville in NXT even though iL iked his airborne style on the indies, Love Sami Zayn in NXT so I am banking on this match to be good. But will it be good Where you shrug your shoulders or great so I can put it on a MOTY list? Quote
goodhelmet Posted December 12, 2014 Author Report Posted December 12, 2014 PWG Shirt in the crowd. Owens looks amped. Quote
Coffey Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Good debut for Owens, in my opinion. Quote
goodhelmet Posted December 12, 2014 Author Report Posted December 12, 2014 Owens debut is exactly what it should have been. I hope stupid WWE politics don't hurt him because he got busted open but it also helped make the debut feel even more special. Quote
goodhelmet Posted December 12, 2014 Author Report Posted December 12, 2014 Did he just call Alex Riley "Alex Shelley"? Quote
Matt D Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 I'm only half watching, if that, because I've got some crap to do tonight and won't get to see much more until tomorrow but um.. mmm... blood. I'm the least vampirey vampire on this website of bloodthirsty monsters, but yeah, nothing makes a debut of a tough guy monster warrior like blood. Quote
shoe Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 I hope the blood doesn't hurt him. Great debut. Quote
Coffey Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Well my stream refuses to play without constantly messing up, so I guess I'll have to try to avoid spoilers & check it out later. :-/ At least I got to see the Steen debut. EDIT: Resolved! For now. Thankfully. Quote
Matt D Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Also, if anyone's not seen this yet (I know Phil isn't big into NXT), this is the most must watch thing WWE may have produced all year: Quote
hammerva Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 I know it is small but I like idea of a singlet looking shirt for Simon Gotch on the entrance. If he is supposed to be a "strong man" then why he is covering himself up Quote
shoe Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 It's hard to take the Vaudevillains as serious threats. Quote
Matt D Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Imagine them feuding with Miz and Mizdow though. Quote
shoe Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Imagine them feuding with Miz and Mizdow though. That would be fun. Quote
Coffey Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 I like Corbin. I have zero desire to watch ANY match with Bull in it though. Quote
goodhelmet Posted December 12, 2014 Author Report Posted December 12, 2014 Not feeling Corbin at all. I hated that finisher. Quote
Phil Schneider Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 We are doing a live blog over at SC http://segundacaida.blogspot.com/2014/12/wwe-nxt-r-evolution-takeover-like-blog.html Quote
hammerva Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Wow we already got our first Owens/Zayn meeting in NXT Holy fuck looking at this from Fin Balor. completely with the body paint Quote
Coffey Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 I hate this crowd. They remind me of the old TNA Asylum crowd. Quote
hammerva Posted December 12, 2014 Report Posted December 12, 2014 Ascension is getting way too much offense in this match. If they are leaving for the WWE why not let Itami and Balor destroy them on their way out Well according to reports a lot of the Impact Zone crowd has migrated to NXT. So the asshole factor has increased dramatically. Alex Riley really sucks. I mean he wondered if Itami and Balor can speak english <_> Wow they teased Itami doing the GTS. I guess there is no reason why he can't do it Quote
