Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Adam Cole to Cathy Kelly: "Now you can leave Cathy."

That hurts... I'm going to miss Cathy doing backstage interviews.

I never even realized she was leaving. I wonder why she's leaving. Seemed like she was one of the main interviewers/media people not on the main roster.

Probably got poached by Fox, ABC or NBC Universal and couldn't work out a deal to do both shows like Charly is.

And she announced on it Friday morning on Twitter: https://twitter.com/catherinekelley/...923574272?s=20

They didn't freeze her deal and force her to stay for another 2 years? Oh right she was an employee.

Finished watching TakeOver Portland and it was a great show overall. Looking forward to their next TakeOver the day before WM.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Given what Ciampa said this week, could we have Ciampa vs Gargano in a loser leaves NXT match?

Winner gets another shot at NXT title and chance to be the face of NXT again, the loser is off the brand they call home and becomes the "hottest free agent in WWE" with USA/FOX competing to sign him.

The NXT title picture seems to be locked up until Boston at the earliest, IMO. Finn just beat Gargano in de facto number one contenders match since Dream was on the shelf. And now Dream also has a grudge to settle with Cole. So I imagine those are you next 2 in line for a title shot and I don't think we're getting a Cole title defense on TV.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Roderick Strong vs Dream in a Steel Cage Match next Wednesday on NXT. So Dream is going to do the Cody backflip off the top of the cage isn't he?

Also liked how for once their was logic when another superstar's music plays. Charlotte trying to put a chair over Bianca's ankle and step on it. Rhea's music plays and Charlotte quickly steps on her foot anticipating Rhea to come down and stop her. Meanwhile....

Bianca about to get her ankles broken and Rhea takes time to do a pose and slowly gets to the ring allowing Charlotte to step on both of Bianca's ankles before she gets to the ring. LMAO.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Dream has been going hard at Roderick Strong on Twitter, feels like he's the heel in this from what he's been saying, I love it personally Lol

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

That ending of NXT finally does something we rarely see in wrestling.

A beatdown is happening, and rather than the person in the ring standing frozen for 20 seconds while someone interrupts and makes their entrance, Charlotte just continues the beatdown and actually goes quicker to get the job done before Ripley comes in.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Looks like NXT Japan is coming soon.

WWE seems to be close to deal to buy AJPW. Likely gets converted to NXT Japan (maybe NXT All-Japan so they can keep part of the old name).

I hope we can see some main roster shows in Japan one day. Even a takeover.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Is All Japan Pro Wrestling any good at this point? Isn't New Japan far superior? Or I am way off?

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

A small thing that was cool from this past week on NXT. The graphic they used for Adam Coles celebration reminded me of the RA era graphics.

Instead of just a picture, we get a video then freeze frame picture.


And that ending was great. Instead of an arena brawl that usually goes to the same places, we get a cool gym battle. Forget matches like parking lot brawl or boiler room brawl, I want to see a gym brawl.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

NXT Takeover is now not happening Mania weekend. Perhaps they run it as a TV special at the Performance Center for Ratings?

Hold a 3 hour weekend special on USA.

Re: WWE: NXT Thread

Report out that there will be zero wrestling on NXT. Just interviews, etc.
