I remember a big deal was made of Trips building bridges and then nothing happened after Brooklyn. New Japan was already balls deep with ROH by that point, so no. Liger's special, his deal is that he can do whatever the fuck he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambulance Chaser Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Ciampa really is a master at the craft, unbelievable character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThumpSquids Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I adore that he has no merch. No way to celebrate his villainy in the crowd. No music, no fanfare. An absolute heel. How long has it been since something like this came along? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 How shit is Kona Reeves’ new gimmick? And he looked a right gimp for not being able to beat EC3 off of that distraction from Dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny Vegas Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I actually totally disagree. I think Reeves' gimmick is fine and the theme is catchy. A self centred cocky and arrogant heel who believes he deserves all the best things in life. I much prefer people to have a go at a gimmick than be "generic strongstyle black trunks nothing special guy #27". With regards to losing to EC3 regardless of the distraction I see it more of EC3 being so good he managed to still just scrape a kick out rather than Reeves being rubbish so couldn't beat him.

I hate him, he’s an irredeemable bastard. The opening video package portrayed that beautifully, and then he came out and confirmed all your worst feelings about him. And yet half of Full Sail still cheer him. With Ciampa and Baszler, NXT has probably the two best heels in the business right now.

WyattSheepMask Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Closely followed by that fan in the white tshirt who sits in the corner near the ring steps. I’m booing anytime he gets his mug on tv. Has to be the loudest, clap the most, and you see in the Ciampa & Black match that he is affected most by what happens, and this week he’s running around with the Street Profits everywhere they go with his homemade Street Profits flag In other news (spoilered as it may effect the Takeover:Brooklyn main event) Aleister Black is out of action after undergoing surgery. The injury occurred during last saturdays NXT Live event in Las Vegas in his match against Tomasso Ciampa. The injury occurred when Black was crutches on the top rope. While no announcement has been made official, Black could be in doubt for the Takeover event during Summerslam weekend Edited August 4, 2018 by WyattSheepMask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciampas? She got into it with him when he first came back. And she’s always at Full Sail. One of the regulars. I know she’s on twitter as well. Don’t think they’re related at all.
