Paid Members PunkStep Posted November 10, 2017 Paid Members Posted November 10, 2017 What was the point of bringing him back? He's not really done anything of note, hasn't featured prominently in NXT, let alone the Takeover shows. I can only assume bringing him in was a long-term decision, with a view to have him become a trainer at the PC. If he's willing to wind down his wrestling career, that is.
CavemanLynn Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 I can get behind an Iconic Duo title run. It'd be a nice change too to have them totally in cahoots, no rivalry or split angle. Aussie Freebird Rules.
Snitsky's back acne Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 WWE have announced that they will be taping several episodes of NXT from the Centre Stage Theatre in Atlanta in early 2018 which was the home for WCW Saturday Night for several years in the 1990's.
Paid Members gadge Posted November 16, 2017 Paid Members Posted November 16, 2017 It's been a venue for ROH recently as well. They had TV airing from there just a few weeks ago...
WyattSheepMask Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 So we are getting the Johnny Gargano v Pete Dunne match next week. Looking forward to it. Thought we were going to get another 'end of funny annocdote' from Regal, but sadly not. Nigel McGuiness is fucking horrendous. "Everything he does has catastoric effect"? That's not a word, and this is a taped show. Keep him on 205 Live which no-one watches. "Sanity...Undisputed Era...Authors of Pain". Roderick Strong is so boring, they can't even be bothered to put his name in the promo package for the main event
Paid Members Supremo Posted November 16, 2017 Paid Members Posted November 16, 2017 Isn’t Dunne vs. Gargano a dark match? I haven’t seen the TV in weeks (Adam Cole and his mates have bored me off), but that was how it was pitched when it was originally announced.
WyattSheepMask Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 They had a segment on this weeks episode were Regal told Gargano that Pete Dunne had issued an open challenge to anyone in NXT for a UK Title match, Gargano accepted and they plugged it again with a match graphic a few minutes later saying "next week on NXT..."
Paid Members PunkStep Posted November 16, 2017 Paid Members Posted November 16, 2017 That'll be taped at Takeover then. You usually get that with the post-Takeover episode of NXT- the episode is basically dark matches from the weekend, then they film a month's worth of TV that same week.
The Dart Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 In case any one is wondering about it, Triple H has confirmed the War Games cage won’t have a roof. Gives the morons another thing to moan about.
WyattSheepMask Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 I'm probably in the minority, but I'm quite liking that they're putting their own spin on it as it will differentiate it from the matches of the past and allow it to be judged on its own merits. I'm sure there will be some (not anyone on here per se) that will be hoping/expecting it to be on the same level as Sting's Squadron Vs. The Dangerous Alliance, who will be disappointed when it doesn't live up to those lofty expectations and it will somehow be Vince "burying" it because it was t his creation or some other such nonsense
simonworden Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 I expect this was done as they don't have a cage roof to fit but they have more than enough cage sides they can configure without needing to build new equipment
Paid Members Cod Eye Posted November 17, 2017 Paid Members Posted November 17, 2017 What time does Takeover start over here? Not watched one in ages, but I'm intregued how the War Games will pan out....
Paid Members gadge Posted November 17, 2017 Paid Members Posted November 17, 2017 I'd assume 1am. Survivor Series is a midnight start the next night, but only because it's a 4hr show.
WyattSheepMask Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Yeah, 1am start with a 30minute Preshow beforehand, which is just promos I don't recall them ever having matches on them. It's scheduled to run to 3:30 according to the schedule
Paid Members PunkStep Posted November 17, 2017 Paid Members Posted November 17, 2017 3:30? They're usually 2:30 tops, aren't they?
