Hobbes Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 I get a definite Bret/Owen vibe after that match, Finn insisting on doing the double stomp even with his injury, Joe's reaction to that. I could see Finn/Joe losing the finals when Finn's knee gives out, leading to a Joe heel turn. Quote
goodhelmet Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Rhyno & Baron Corbin vs. Jason Jordan And Chad Gable - The Olympian stuff looked real pretty early on but I don’t think there was much substance. - Pretty soon, they start focusing on Rhyno’s arm. - I really liked Corbin pulling Gable’s hair to prevent the tag. - The crowd is really helping the match more than usual. - Great stretch run by all four guys so props to them. - I would have liked to see the two actual tag teams find their way to the finals but both matches were super fun.

hammerva Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Man I really really don't like Ryhno & Corbin winning that match. Gable and Jordan was great in that match and it was being set up for them to beat Balor and Joe. Quote
jcmmnx Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 First two matches were awesome, but fuck Rhyno and Corbin winning. Gable and Jordan made terrific babyfaces. Quote
Johnny Sorrow Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Holy shit, I just fucking loved a match with Corbin in it. Quote
cpst Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Asuka is refreshing, even just because she moves around in the ring differently than the WWE-trained women. Quote
Hobbes Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Thought that might have been one of the best Barin Corbin performances I've seen. Gable is so over to that crowd. It might be too soon to split that team, but if NXT needs another guy in the NXT Title mix, the fans would easily accept him. Quote
goodhelmet Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Dana Brooke vs. Asuka - Man, great debut from Asuka. A lot of taunting early but keeping that arm in check is a-ok in my book. - Mma changing the tide from the outside is old school smart logical transitions. - Really impressed with both women here. Quote
jcmmnx Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Poor Dana I really need to see Asuka vs Becky and Sasha in NXT. Quote
Jmare007 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 3 for 3 so far. Great 1st hour of wrestling. Quote
Hobbes Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Asuka's facial expressions and charisma are off the charts. The gleeful, almost frightening ass kicker. Quote
goodhelmet Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 3 for 3 so far. Great 1st hour of wrestling. Correction 4 for 4. Apollo Crews vs. Tyler Breeze - IT was fun seeing Crews show off his spots but Tyler working on the back was great. - In three matches, we have seen an injured leg, an attack on the arm and nice back work. This is my kind of shit. Crews is really selling the hell out of that lower back every time he moves. - I was really hoping that superkick would have won Breeze the match. I knew Crews was going to win but Breeze worked his ass off here. - Four matches in and all four have hit the mark. Quote
jcmmnx Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 I'm not sold on Crews, but that was a fine effort from Breeze. Quote
Jmare007 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 4 for 4. That match felt different than what he had seen so far in the show, really liked it too. Quote
Hobbes Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 This has been a great show so far. Solid booking, molten hot crowd, good wrestling, and even the commentary has been better than usual. If Sasha/Bayley lives up to it's potential this could be a show of the year contender. Quote
goodhelmet Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 FINALS: Samoa Joe & Finn Balor vs. Baron Corbin & Rhyno - Solid tag match but I wasn’t as into this one as the earlier two. I am probably still disappointed by the actual results of the first two matches. Balor sold the leg like a champ for the most part but he is stupid for using his leg as much as he did. Quote
goodhelmet Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 The post match celebration and Cody's speech were pretty awesome. Great moment. Quote
goodhelmet Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 You know what I love about Regal as an authority figure... you just sound more respectable with an English accent. (This doesn't apply to Parv. He's Welsh.) Quote
hammerva Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 You wonder if anyone watched that Cody Rhodes promo and thought "hey he is pretty damn good talking I wonder what he is doing right now" Quote
cpst Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Sasha sure takes some scary looking bumps in matches with Bayley. Quote
hammerva Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Holy crap that was a great sneaky first pin by Sasha. I love how they are going for pins early. That is the way this match should be Quote
Johnny Sorrow Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 I hope Izzy turns on Bayley and costs her the match. And then pulls out a jr. size version of Sasha's glasses and poses with her. Quote
Jmare007 Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Heel doing heel shit. I'm loving this. Quote
hammerva Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 Remember when people were complaining about Sasha at the end of the Brooklyn match for not acting like a heel. Well she is more than making up for tonight. What a bitch Quote
funkdoc Posted October 8, 2015 Report Posted October 8, 2015 i dug sasha faking a concussion off that armdrag bump, exactly the sort of thing that works even on smarky crowds Quote
