sek69 Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 AOP being down here as long as they have is the best evidence possible that Vince doesn't follow NXT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
...TG Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Are the Authors of Pain the best "NXT Developmental Project" ever at this point? I mean I don't count Braun or Elias much, but the AOP are so damn fun now a days. They were put into a pretty high profile position when they were still really new and have more than lived up to it. I wonder, does Ellering have much of a backstage role with them? I can't imagine he's solely there for nostalgia purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiva Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Between Cole winning the ladder match and taking the early table bump, I wouldn't be surprised if he retains the tag belts here and they're heating him up for a run opposite Almas. If not Almas, he's Balor/Rollins first opponent for the IC belt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Bologna Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 It's very distracting for me that McGuinness sounds just like Baldrick from Blackadder. I keep expecting him to say that he has a cunning plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stiva Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Roderick Strong just turned heel on a WWE broadcast. What a wild world we live in. Dunne/Roddy for the UK Title is something that can definitely headline a Network special from Manchester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sek69 Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 That was a very appropriate ending for a tournament honoring Dusty, gotta give them that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Thread Killer Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Not to get all kayfabey, but doesn't the "Freebird Rule" apply to the Undisputed Era? Meaning, does Strong assume Fish's place in the team with O'Reilly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
...TG Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 NXT trying to astroturf their own Bullet Club, I guess. Though there has to be a better name than "Undisputed Era". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 As long as I see two hosses beating the shit out of them, it's cool. Still, giving Cole the NA Title, the Tag Titles AND the Dusty on a single event seems like... too much. Like, a legit problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmartMark15 Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 As much as I'm not interested in Adam Cole or Roderick Strong, if this turn means that we get PWG Shitty Little Boots Roddy, then I'll be fine with it. And it was probably one of the only ways to wake the crowd back up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think WWE sees Adam Cole like a young Triple H or the next Seth Rollins. I fully expect him to be WWE Universal champion one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Playing catch up: it's actually been forever since I saw one of those car crash matches. I didn't see War Games. I've missed the last few TLCs. Etc. Since I haven't seen one in a while, I thought this was fairly compelling. I liked the personalities in the match for the most part. Just a strong variety. I thought it was pretty well put together though it would have benefited from losing the segment in the middle with a lot of "one person climbing, another pulls him off." It was definitely most interesting when multiple guys were involved at once. My favorite bit was Dream's elbow drop parade. His selling is so much fun to watch. I liked the build and the payoff to Dain vs Lars. I've never seen an Adam Cole match before, actually, and the finish was definitely a let down.

William Bologna Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 Is Cole bad? I didn't watch him in ROH or anything, but I've always pulled for him because he was on Maryland indy shows that I used to go to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
