KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Real talk: if Velveteen Dream isn't a multi-time WWE/Universal Champion by the time he's retired, something went really wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Enthusiast Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Unpopular opinion: AoP was the better team in that match.I don’t think it’s a very unpopular opinion here, though I thought both teams did great in that match. Ohno/Dream was disappointing, especially after the DDT spot got fucked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Kassius Ohno is the Braden Walker of NXT. Stick a fork in him - he's done. Wasn't he brought in to be a player-coach? Give the guys who need more experience a seasoned vet to work with? I think he's been doing his role pretty well so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like something frothing-at-the-mouth Chris Hero fanboys told themselves to make it okay that their man is losing constantly and isn't over in NXT. I could be wrong though.

hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Wow someone really doesn't really like Chris Hero. He even mentioned it in that video earlier in the week that he is more of a trainer in the 2nd run of NXT given his experience Gargano entire family in the locker room is interesting.

KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Actually from all accounts that's precisely his role. Someone more experienced that elevates other talent. Also Shayna is the real fucking deal. Hope she semi-squashes Ember Moon here (nothing personal) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.S. Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Wow someone really doesn't really like Chris Hero I don't like what I've seen in NXT. Like Sami Callahan before him, he's shown me nothing. I guess some people just aren't good fits for NXT/WWE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Shayna is great, her poise and star aura at such an early stage of her wrestling career is impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.S. Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 My guess: Baszler locks in her submission, refuses to let go, and gets DQed. Edit: Guess not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 I know we are supposed to believe the pro wrestling submission moves aren't as impactful as MMA ones but come on she was in an arm bar for a good 2 minutes. Even if she blocked it a couple times that is completely unrealistic. Especially when your gimmick (not really a gimmick) that you are a legit MMA bad ass. Although I guess I am being a hypocrite because I loved Minoru Suzuki vs Okada last year and there was about 10-15 minutes of Okada selling painful leg submission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 If Shayna having Ember Moon for two minutes and losing in what basically was a fluke makes her look not as badass as she's supposed to be, imagine what MiSu ends up looking like after having Okada in a leglock for 40 fucking minutes and he can still do his normal offense. IMO this match was tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.S. Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 This is the kind of match that must be amazing for the live audience, but watching it from home is pretty boring. Agreed. So sick of these tame PG garbage brawls. They're horrid. This entire PPV has been a snooze. If this is what Triple H's WWE will look like, God help us all. The bloom is definitely off the rose when it comes to NXT. Like Raw and Smackdown, it's now an ice cold brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 I think I like the match better when Black didn't want to use weapons. meanwhile Cole is getting killed by doing moves on weapons in the wrong/worst way possible. No way you could think that ladder spot was smart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.S. Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 At least the right guy won. Aleister Black is a future World or Universal Champion. Adam Cole is a future 205 Live headliner - if he doesn't get called up as Michael Cole's geek younger brother, that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Fuck, the 2nd half of the match was good but my God, Mauro is the dirt fucking worst. Awful, awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 percy is pretty bad but he has only really been doing this for about a year. Mauro has done this for decades So he is "EC 3" not "EC3". I wonder if he can actually call himself Ethan Carter. Actually never mind forgot TNA allowed them to take their gimmicks with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.S. Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 I'm not ready to get my heart broken by the inevitable Ciampa run-in That's my guess too, and it's honestly the right move. As red hot as Gargano-Ciampa headlining the pre-WM TakeOver would be, they don't really need the title. Almas has been a good champ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
