adequate8 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Iâm another who only watches NXT now but keep an eye on headlines/results on the main shows. Used to pay a lot more attention back in the day so had heard of Roode/Roderick and a few others but not a clue who Lee, Cole, Fish, OâReilly, Divokovic, Gargano, Ciampa, Ricochet, Black etc were. Also what is the Ibushi/Ospreay camera angle thing referred to a few pages back?

His promo with the Undisputed Era this week was so bloody effortless. He's WWE's answer to the gaping hole that The Rock left and we're all going to be rightly devastated when he's trading wins with the lower ranks and doing awful comedy sketches. Iâm the same! And someone posted on here about him entering and winning the rumble and had my heart started to yearn for it! however, from what I hear anecdotally, WWE have big plans for dream.

WyattSheepMask Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) Plans needing to change for Takeover: New York and afterwards (spoilers due to effecting things yet to be broadcast)  Apparently Tomasso Ciampa is having to have neck surgery (within the next couple of days) and is going to be out for a very long time. He had been scheduled to have the surgery after Wrestlemania weekend, but he seems to be in a pretty bad way so theyâve brought it forward. Obviously this means that the NXT Title is going to be vacated and possibly changes the plans for the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. Theyâve got another set of tapings to do before Takeover: New York, so things will become cleaer then. You can get around the DRTTC stuff by having an already eliminated team win some sort of âsecond chanceâ match to get back in and go from there, but the NXT Title is a little more convoluted, unless you just have Regal name 3 or 4 competitors and do some sort of Elimination match to crown the new champion at Takeover.

RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 The DRTTC wonât be much of an issue as DIY lost in the semis to Black and Ricochet with Gargano getting one over Ciampa post match. If they are going to keep Blacochet as a team on the Main Roster then I doubt they will switch them out of the Dusty finals. A possible option could be have Cole go against Gargano for the vacant title or have a rematch with the Dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Accident Prone Posted March 7, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted March 7, 2019 Well that may be my favourite episode of NXT ever. Four excellent tag matches and a great showdown between Matt Riddle and Velveteen Dream, with some entertaining bits and bobs in between. NXT doesn't need to go to two hours, but the extra fifteen minutes didn't hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I didnât even realise that the show had gone an extra 15 minutes. That Black/Ricochet v Aichner/Bartell match was fantastic, and the Forgotten Sons has their best outing to date. They still stink of 2006-era Smackdown, but this was definitely an improvement. Did anyone else notice The Street Profits randomly tagging in Moustache Mountains corner? That was odd Iâm still on the fence when it comes to Matt Riddle, but Iâm going to give it more time. What isnât in doubt is how fucking amazing Velveteen Dream was. Snapping the fingers for the spotlight, bravo! And âthat Everton guyâ doesnt seem to have made it to these tapings, so Iâm enjoying that while it lasts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they just messed up. That corner is usually the âFace Teamâ corner as you look it on the hard camera angle, and the heels have the corner on the right side of the screen. Street Profits will have had that corner for all TV matches theyâve done so you just get used to it, and this being a match with 2 face teams someone had to go the other side for once, but they made a boo-boo and rather than draw attention to it and disrupted the flow of that closing sequence, they just moved on and ignored it.

Paid Members gmoney Posted March 8, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted March 8, 2019 I wonder if that's ever been used as a Dusty finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philjax Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I'm just waiting for Gunner to turn on those two wasteman stablemates so he can go on the monstrous singles run he's clearly destined for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members WeeAl Posted March 13, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted March 13, 2019 Watching this week's episode of NXT, on the back of watching the previous two weeks there this morning, it really hit me again how Mauro Ranallo is the most annoying commentator in WWE by leaps and bounds. Dream and Gargano had a really good match a couple of weeks ago for the belt, and this week's opener with Black&Ricochet Vs The European Union was a hot opener. I might have to watch the rest of the show on mute though if Ranallo insists on screaming at me for the next hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Personally I enjoy his enthusiasm, and feel that his knowledge works well with the other guys. I can see why some people do find him annoying but I'd take him over the robotic Cole any day, although I appreciate his work ethic and what he brings to the table.

Sonny Mustang Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Another great night of tapings last night setting up for takeover - obviously they had to move things around due to ciampas surgery. in an aside there was a âmix-upâ with our tickets, so we ended up front row seated next to Everton fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
