Philjax Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Gah, fucking recap show this week! Plus the shitty Crews/Samson bout from before Takeover. Hate that. There is about 4 seconds of Nakamura promo worth seeing right at the end though. Nak and Aries in action next week though. Not against each other I presume these matches which someone said were taped at Axxess were taped the day after Takeover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dart Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 They were recorded Saturday, yes. They had a slightly more elaborate setup than they usually have at Axxess, so it should look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Yeah, they taped quite a bit on Saturday or Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love-Wilcox Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 On the bright side Sampson seemed to get quite a bit of heat during his promo. The more I see from him the more I'm starting to "get" him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted April 7, 2016 Awards Moderator Share Posted April 7, 2016 Yeah, that pre-match Drifter segment where he tried to sing the song he'd written for the occasion was really good. He's extremely booable. Watched Zayn vs Nakamura from Takeover again tonight. It's still absolutely fantastic, the whole thing's something really special. That pop when Shinsuke does his pose on the ropes! And yeah, his music's an earworm. It'll be interesting to see how he translates to a smaller audience next week.

Love-Wilcox Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Highlight show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Is there any particular reason why they would show a recap show following possibly their biggest and best event ever? Surely when they have a load of new eyes on the product they'd want to keep the momentum going, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gadge Posted April 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted April 8, 2016 They were a bit busy, all the crew being on the road through Tuesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Linus Posted April 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted April 8, 2016 I enjoyed it. I'm not one for going back and watching whole events again so it was great to see highlights of the matches from Takeover. And with the blood-wiping removed, the drama in Balor-Joe really came across. Oh, and the Zayn-Nakamura match! I like that they do this kind of thing once in a while, it's a nice change of pace, like that time WWE got snowed in and did that show from Stamford.

David Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 They were a bit busy, all the crew being on the road through Tuesday? Didn't they record some fresh material on Saturday or Sunday though? I'm sure my mate who was over in Texas posted something on social media about attending a TV taping or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briefcase Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 They were taping TV shows at Axxess on the Saturday and possibly Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Linus Posted April 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted April 8, 2016 Yes, but all the editing and production are done at Full Sail University. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted April 8, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) An NXT fall out show could have worked, catching up with each wrestler after their win/loss. Saying that, I'm guessing it simply saves them money and time to throw a recap together. Edited April 8, 2016 by Kaz Hayashi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 That's a shame, as they've probably managed to lose a bit of momentum coming off that show before Mania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
