Paid Members air_raid Posted March 6, 2016 Paid Members Posted March 6, 2016 Jordan & Gable winning the belts should be a big deal, and I think the old-school booking that seems to permeate through NXT's longer term stories leans heavily towards straight, old-fashioned "win the belts from the heels that have had a decent run and beaten everyone else." Them winning the belts from guys that have only had the belts a couple of weeks? Ehhhh. Winning them in a triple threat without actually pinning the champions? Even bigger ehhhhhhh. The new champions being popular babyfaces thus potentially splitting the crowd, thus potentially diluting the pop when Jordan and Gable win? Hate it, hate it, hate it. The only way I would accept Enzo & Cass winning the belts and Dallas becoming a three-way would be if Dash & Dawson win the belts back to put even more heat on them because they want to stall on Jordan & Gable relieving them of the belts a bit longer. Which I would also view as less preferable than the straight two on two at Dallas with Jordan & Gable terminating the long reign.
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted March 6, 2016 Paid Members Posted March 6, 2016 So why can't enzo and Cass win the belts in Toronto and just have the takeover match be a triple threat?Because stone cold said so so
WyattSheepMask Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 And that's why I used spoiler tags the other day
King Pitcos Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 In case people didn't know NXT gets taped in advance?
Paid Members Your Fight Site Posted March 6, 2016 Paid Members Posted March 6, 2016 In case people didn't know NXT gets taped in advance? I think more that it gives away the result of any NXT tag title matches between now and then.
King Pitcos Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 No point in me looking up the results from the latest house shows now then. Was hoping Balor would have dropped the strap to Zayn somewhere tbh
The Dart Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 I like that NXT are running some of the classic smaller WWE venues like the Mid Hudson Civic Centre, and the Lowell Memorial Auditorium.
WyattSheepMask Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Could it not just be that they're smaller capacity, cheaper venues? WWF were running those places when they were on their arse
Ambulance Chaser Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Joe vs Zayn, now that is why I love Wrestling. Outstanding effort.
Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted March 10, 2016 Paid Members Posted March 10, 2016 Watched it at lunch and nearly cried...
WyattSheepMask Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Yeah, great stuff all round from both men. Had it clocked at 42:46 bell to bell. Going that long with just two guys to carry the story is a great achievement in modern WWE
TildeGuy~! Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 The head writer of NXT has now been moved to Smackdown.
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted March 10, 2016 Awards Moderator Posted March 10, 2016 That was a bit good, wasn't it? What a match and what a story they told. Love that they devoted the whole episode to it. Tremendous stuff from both Joe and Sami.
