WWE NXT Thread

Seems odd for it to be finals though if last time their finals were at MSG and this time the finals are at some "bingo hall" in Houston lol

I don't think they schedule a TV taping while thinking at LFG at all. If anything I'm surprised S2 happened so soon after s1.

The "finals" doesn't really matter anyways. It's not like wins or losses makes a difference in LFG, its about the "performance". The finals is just a showcase match between the two finalists, but the real part of the finals is choosing who wins afterwards.

For all the "did you know know ___ was in WWE before their debut" posts we always see, like Ricky Saints with Ryback, Sheamus and Wade with DX and so on, Blake reveals Jordynne Grace was an extra in WWE years ago. Looks like she was just a bystander during some backstage attack in the 2010s.

Not that she's as big a name, but I'm surprised the internet never found that one.

Blake resorting to a body shaming angle? She knows this isn't the divas era?

Did Lola really say she "represented WWE by flying around the world to AAA". Someone get her a map.

What an ending, they just Soprano'd Tony D!

[TheMatrix31]

Really good show again. Loved the Tony D ending.

Nia showing up was a nice, fitting surprise.

Loved most of what we saw. They actually write shows.

Trick: I'm a self made man.

Fans: Yeah!

Trick: I'm a self made superstar.

Fans: Yeah!

Trick: I'm him!

Fans: Yea......oh?


This might be the best Joe Hendry appears moment ever.

Wren: Say his name and he appears! I believe in Joe Hendry!

Charles: Just because you said it doesn't actually mean...

*Hendry pops out of the fridge*

Ethan Page gets interrupted by...CHELSEA GREEN!

Canada vs USA? I think Tyra from LFG is his partner, makes too much sense.

[TheMatrix31]

Chelsea Ethan was great!

Really awesome show again.

[Majingir]

Who needs darkstate? A stable with Trick, Oba, Jevon and Moose would rule the entire show.

How much longer until Trick gets called to the main roster? Melo isn't doing much on the main roster, and Trick has done everything he can do in TNA and NXT, let's get them going on the main roster.

[SmashMan]

Are they building to a Lexis King vs Myles Borne Blindfold match? I couldn't tell you the last time WWE did one, so it might be a good time to dust off that gimmick.

[TheMatrix31]

That would be great lol.

Man, the Philly venue and crowd were terrible. Felt like they were just quiet and bored all night. The show had no magic.
And it was still packed as **** with developments.

And if Chelsea ever appears on WWE TV without glasses again she should be fired.

[UFCMPunk]

That ref in the TNA Knockouts Triple Threat Match sucks lol. Ejecting Fallon Henry & Jasmyn Nix from my TV for one, but not doing the same when the Elegance Brand pulled Jacy Jayne out of the ring.

Surprised Ash won, thought for sure the big moment would be saved for Bound for Glory but with Masha beating Jacy.

I like the pairing between Ethan Page & Chelsea Green, they need to move Ethan up to Smackdown with the Secret Hervice and keep them together.

[UFCMPunk]

Such a great false finish there. That was the exact spot I wanted them to do with Sami Zayn against Roman in Montreal. The pop for the crowd thinking Sami had won would have been insane. So Je'Von is definitely winning the title at NXT Stand & Deliver next year.

so NXT Homecoming at Full Sail on Tuesday September 16th, NXT No Mercy on Saturday September 27th in Fort Lauderdale, FL and Halloween Havoc on Saturday October 25th in Prescott Valley, Arizona.

[Majingir]

Great video package for Green/Page.

You know Chelsea is popular when she gets cheered in a Canada vs USA match in USA. As much as I like Tiffany, they need to make Chelsea a world champ soon.

Speed title going to NXT. It'd probably make more sense in Evolve or something.

NXT Homecoming should've been a PLE. But going back to Full Sail will be cool. Hopefully it's a double taping. Wouldn't be surprised to see some old school NXT stars showing up who called Full Sail home like Rollins, Bayley and so on.

They showed some clips of past matches, I feel like we had one in the PG Era with Santino, but the only one I remember is HHH vs DLo I believe on Raw Roulette (I miss when they used to have those shows, they were so fun because it would be random stipulations all night long which made things different and fun).

Chelsea Green with a Raptors jersey!

I didn't remember the Triple H vs D-Lo one, but it makes sense that it'd be a random Raw Roulette gimmick.

Vic said NXT had one in 2020, so I looked it up. Dexter Lumis vs Cameron Grimes. ...wtf, that happened?

There's lots of stuff about pandemic shows you forget happened (I didn't forget it, but its weird looking back and realizing that Melo with Trick vs Swerve happened on NXT, especially seeing where Trick and Swerve have gone since). I don't even remember Grimes feuding with Lumis or the reason the stipulation was added unless that show was Halloween Havoc since that one also had the match stipulation wheel.
