If AJ can go to the main roster right away, Swagsuke could too. I assumed he would come to the PC in February as planned, learn the cameras, then a month out get into a Mania program, would have been a nice selling point for the Network in Japan. But if Dragon isn't being cleared, I'm actually psyched that Nakamura is wrestling Sami. It just means Takeover will be better than Mania.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread
Sorry in advance for the long post.
Last night's live event in Detroit was so good. Enzo & Cass vs. Vaudevillans kicked off the show and Enzo and Cass had the whole place going nuts from the time their music hit.
Bailey took on Nia Jax and my wife said it best. It wasn't even like Nia was in the ring, because you couldn't take your eyes off of Bailey.
American Alpha vs. Dash & Dawson was a tag team wrestling clinic. Seeing the Mechanics work on TV does not do them justice. Seeing them cut off the ring, and do blind tags live was a thing of beauty.
Sami Zayn vs. Tye Dillinger was stopped short because Dillinger injured his right leg. Before the injury it was a great match. Both guys worked the crowd and even though Dillinger was supposed to be the heel, the crowd still loved the 10 gimmick. After Dillinger was helped to the back, Sami cut an impromptu promo and got jumped by Elias Samson-Who everyone hated.
Finally, the main event: Fatal 4-way between Joe, Apollo Crews, Baron Corbin, and Finn Balor. Great match where everyone except Corbin looked main roster ready. A lot of Bullet Club references from Balor. The finish was awesome, Joe choked out Corbin on the ground, Crews hit the standing moonsault and tried to pin both of them, only for Finn to hit the Stomp from the top rope to all three and pinned Corbin for the win.
Great great show. If I had to rank the people that are surefire hits on the main roster it'd be:
1. Bailey
2. Sami Zayn
3. Finn Balor (very small)
4. Enzo and Cass
5. Apollo CrewsFavorite Teams:

Re: WWE: NXT Thread
I dunno, I guess I need to watch more Zayn matches but I don't get it. He puts on good matches but I find him kind of boring over all.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread
I thought the same when I first saw him and heard that goofy *** music. Watched some matches, saw he could hold his on on the mic, tells a good story. Complete wrestler, imo. He's one of those rare guys that could be a face most of his career, imo.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread
To see Zayn live and up close is a thing of beauty. The guy just knows his way around the ring. His feud with Cesaro in NXT was awesome, but now you can just tell that he's comfortable with who he is as a character.Favorite Teams:

Re: WWE: NXT Thread
My show was 2 hours. That was with Corbin v Crews v Joe v Balor as the main event. I know that the night before those for fought in 2 separate singles matches so it could have been longer.Favorite Teams:

Re: WWE: NXT Thread
I wouldn't be surprised if the andre battle royal did have at least 1 notable nxt guy in it. As irrelevant as that match has become after just 2 years, they'll prob have it again.
As for American Alphas, they came up with it on nxt show in january. Some outdoor segment with them. Gable suggested it, then immediately retracted it cause it sounded stupid. Then Jordan said its a good name,he likes it,and Gables like "i know,thats why i said it.".Comment
