Log Posted January 6, 2018 Report Posted January 6, 2018 I don't understand why the girl hosting the recap show keeps calling Vega Almas protege? Isnt she running things with Almas? I dont know why someone wouldnt correct the host there. She said it a lot. Quote
Edwin Posted January 6, 2018 Report Posted January 6, 2018 https://twitter.com/QoSBaszler/status/949389035977486340 Shayna tweeted that video and apparently kayfabe is still alive and well in 2018 to some people... Quote
sek69 Posted January 6, 2018 Report Posted January 6, 2018 Now that's some heel charisma. It's like Tully if he had an MMA background. Quote
bucky Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 The replies to that are fucking unbearable. They run the gamut, ranging from some fuckboy criticizing her for not being feminine enough, to some other guy saying her character shouldn't be hurting people because it reminds him of Sexy Star shoot breaking someone's arm. Wrestling fans are the literal worst. Quote
sek69 Posted January 10, 2018 Report Posted January 10, 2018 That's why the #1 rule on the internet is never read the comments. Quote
Timbo Slice Posted January 12, 2018 Report Posted January 12, 2018 They need to run Center Stage more regularly. It absolutely kills Full Sail from a setting standpoint. Hotter crowd, too. Doesn't hurt to change it up every once in a while. Quote
Migs Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 I have an extra ticket to the Takeover show on Saturday night in Philly. If anyone is interested, PM me. Quote
Timbo Slice Posted January 26, 2018 Report Posted January 26, 2018 Great main event this week with Velveteen Dream and Gargano. Strap the rocket to the Dream, baby. Quote
hammerva Posted January 26, 2018 Report Posted January 26, 2018 I have to think Gargano takes the title, then Ciampa returns and destroys him. Gives you a hot title feud with two guys that probably aren't headed to the main roster right after Mania. It really does depend on whether Ciampa can work at Wrestlemania Takeover. If he can then you have to do the battle of DIY in New Orleans. If he can't work at Wrestlemania then I am not sure where you go with the title match. I think it would be dumb to win the title without shaking his biggest distraction first. By the way go out of your way to see the video on the WWE site of Kassius Ohno and Ember Moon. Really great stuff talking about their career before NXT. Quote
Seabs Posted January 27, 2018 Report Posted January 27, 2018 Rather than the obvious route of Ciampa costing Gargano it'd be so much better and refreshing if Ciampa costs Almas to get the belt on Gargano to fuck with his head and worm his way into a title shot. Also means you could do a 3 way Mania weekend before Almas moves up and you haven't used up a Gargano/Ciampa match going into the next post call ups slump. Quote
Zoo Enthusiast Posted January 27, 2018 Report Posted January 27, 2018 Great main event this week with Velveteen Dream and Gargano. Strap the rocket to the Dream, baby. Really hyped to see what the Ohno match ends up being like. Should be a terrific show as always. Quote
sek69 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 Apparently Nigel is sick, leaving Percy and Mauro to call the show tonight. *edit* they should put Joe on commentary for the night, he's been great as the pre show analyst so far. Quote
hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 Man if you find Mauro annoying then prepare for tonight because he will be carrying Percy Watson for about 2 1/2 hours. Percy is going to do more than the 50 or 60 words he did at the last Takeover show Quote
sek69 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 It's amazing how much Asuka in her street clothes looks like a J-pop cosplayer dressing like a grown up. Quote
Kronos Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 I thought there were going to be some matches on the pre-show. Would have preferred that to awards. Quote
hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 I thought there were going to be some matches on the pre-show. Would have preferred that to awards. Those matches are always shown on the next TV show Almas needs to be on the main roster just to get Zelina Vega up there. She is even destroying Samoa Joe on commentary Quote
sek69 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 AOP really should be on the main roster now, but I hope we get at least one match between them and War Machine before they go up. Quote
hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 Kyle O Reilly is awesomely dorky doing the Hulk Hogan playing guitar with the belt thing. Quote
Kronos Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 Some dude on twitter just now going off on how silly it was to have Heyman do the opening clip, since he has no involvement with NXT. Quote
Zoo Enthusiast Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 Terrific stuff. I love AoP. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 It's weird how AOP are able to do much safer buckle bombs than someone who has over a decade of wrestling experience like Rollins. Fun opener. AOP are fucking incredible in basically every basic level 'cept having distinguishable personalities (not like they should, Paul Ellering is enough for them) Quote
hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 Well AOP has had its history of sloppily dropping people on power bombs. But in the last year or two that hasn't happened and they have been awesome against both big and small men. They will be on the main roster in the next couple months. The finish was a little clunky but given that his knee was hurt it probably should be. Quote
C.S. Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 No thread for the PPV? Unpopular opinion: AoP was the better team in that match. Velveteen Dream vs. Duke "The Dumpster" Drose now. Dream is money and better win. Quote
hammerva Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 Well we got one half of the Chikara Devastation Corporation team in the entrance. The mouthguard on a pillow is a great touch Imagine thinking a year ago at this time that Dream would be wrestling the former Chris Hero in Philadelphia and is the most over guy in the match Quote
