ColdStone Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 When I read the spoiler. I thought it was terrible and after watching it. I thought it was actually worse then I could imagine. wooooowwwww......... Quote
sek69 Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 LOL @ the booking of this...... as if there isn't already an established method for breaking ties in WWF/E Iron Man matches. Quote
kas Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 HAHAHAHA they actually did it, the madmen. What an awful finish. And of course, Balor is already on his feet. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted September 2, 2020 Author Report Posted September 2, 2020 well, guess it could've been worse i would've done balor vs ciampa, if we had to go that route fuck cole Quote
C.S. Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 What a waste of fucking time that was! Quote
ColdStone Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 So what was the real point of Lee being a double champion. Especially if the belt goes back on Cole. The logical booking is Balor becoming champ and holding onto the title till Kross comes back and we see Kross against The Demon. Quote
sek69 Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Being used as the cudgel in which WWE tries to beat down AEW with has been the worst thing to ever happen to NXT. They've totally adopted the Eric Bischoff-running-WCW method of hot shotting week to week to beat the competition instead of trying to build a better show of their own. Quote
Blehschmidt Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Oh..... Oh Shawn.... Did you see that match, it was so epic It had the stuff, that drives the fans wild. All the moves, you know they used them. Then they kicked out, at two point nine..... Quote

WCW 2000 level. I WOULD watch NXT sometime now that Mauro is gone, but I WON'T try this week. Quote
NintendoLogic Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Shawn may be a convenient scapegoat, but do we really think Cole and Gargano would be having stripped-down minimalist classics if not for his baleful influence? We're in a more-is-more era across the board. Quote
DMJ Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 I'll admit it is confirmation bias, but when they announced a 60-minute match between these 4 guys and I thought, "There's no way I'm watching that even out of morbid curiosity," and then I read the non-result this morning, I was just like, "I'm so glad I didn't waste any time watching that even out of morbid curiosity." People criticize AEW for being "too niche" and "indie-based," but as a poster noted above, NXT has become the same thing only for the past couple years,  they've been doing it far, far worse. Quote

Ireland, Jersey, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland or Liechtenstein would have been better choices. Quote
NintendoLogic Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Rumor has it that NXT will be moving permanently to Tuesday nights. If so, it'll be none too soon. All the hotshot title changes and gimmick matches out the wazoo in an attempt to kneecap AEW have damaged the product seemingly beyond repair. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted September 2, 2020 Author Report Posted September 2, 2020 It's probably for the best, for all the parties - AEW, NXT and the fans. Like, I can't imagine being someone who's a fan of both companies and having the go back and forth between channels.  But hey, anything that makes us slander Triple H and HBK is good for me. Quote
Strummer Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 @wrestlevotes also reporting NXT might be moving nights soon enough.  have to say teenage me hates Shawn constantly getting shit on here Quote

ButchReedMark Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Other than the far superior Impact. WWE should be sound fuckers and put it on Thursday or something. Quote

They don't want *everyone* to win. This move shows that they have actually lost and this is them registering that loss, although of course they'll try to twist it into some sort of bold positive move... 3 minutes ago, ButchReedMark said: Other than the far superior Impact. The beauty of it is that Impact is so under the radar that I don't think he can be hurt anymore. But yeah, if you look at it that way, it's hilarious. They tried to compete with AEW and now revert to "counter-program" Impact ! Quote

They will have a bigger viewership, AEW will have too, and fans won't have to choose. From what I've heard that decision was pushed by USA Network, too. The whole "Wednesday Night Scuffle" was bad.
