King Pitcos Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 The most funny/irritating thing in NXT over the last few weeks is that someone told Becky Lynch to start doing the devil horns, and she misinterpreted it as "never put your hands in any other position" so she's constantly doing them, or trying to.
Paid Members gadge Posted November 14, 2014 Paid Members Posted November 14, 2014 Balor impressed the shit out of me.What about Itami? Is he still not looking up to scratch? Itami's alright, really small though. For me, everyone upped their game for the Balor debut, but he was clearly the star rather than Itami.
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted November 15, 2014 Paid Members Posted November 15, 2014 The best thing about this week's episode was Justin Gabriel's ring attire, he looked awesome.
adequate8 Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 Never seen that middle rope forward flip that Kalisto did, which was nice. Worst thing for me is Neville and his measly little kicks, come across so weak and pointless. Even Zayn struggled to sell a light kick to the shin. Will NXT ever tour? Be good to see live
The Dart Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 It does tour. It's a developmental company, it's not going to tour the UK.
Fanny Pack Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 Balor impressed the shit out of me.What about Itami? Is he still not looking up to scratch? Itami's alright, really small though. For me, everyone upped their game for the Balor debut, but he was clearly the star rather than Itami. Most definately, it was a crackin little tag match. What height is Balor? Id say 5'9 which would make Itami 5'6?
Polish Dad Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 It does? I thought it was all filmed at Full Sail?
Fanny Pack Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 It does? I thought it was all filmed at Full Sail? They do a couple of house shows a week in the Orlando/Tampa/Fort Lauderdale area.
Paid Members Your Fight Site Posted November 15, 2014 Paid Members Posted November 15, 2014 It does? I thought it was all filmed at Full Sail? The TV shows are, but NXT then does house shows in other venues across Florida. Any-who, I’m now able to read this thread after watching this week’s episode. I can’t remember the last time I was invested in a wrestling show where I’ve purposefully avoided spoilers. I feel bad for Alexa Bliss getting her nose busted open, but not surprising as it’s been said Sasha Banks has a reputation for working a bit stiff and WWE are trying to get that out of her. Not a bad match, but a little short. I don’t know the name of the backstage interviewer who was doing the segments throughout of the show but I’m not a fan. She has no… gravitas in her voice. She just sounds like she’s going through the motions. No excitement or anything; she just seems to be rattling through a script or tele-prompt. I’m enjoying the Lucha Dragons, and that middle-rope, springboard corkscrew plancha Callisto did was magnificent. I watched the NXT replay, then rewinded to watch it again. Murphy and Blake’s TitanTron video was pretty lame. It looks like something from the TNA “Asylum” days. In fact, no. It looked worse! I like Sami Zayn (who doesn’t?) but the “road to redemption” tagline’s getting a bit hammy. I’m not sure what they’re going to call his next uprising now that he’s failed in his bid to win the NXT Championship. Again.
Fanny Pack Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 Is it me being a idiot or did Neville sell the wrong knee?
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted November 15, 2014 Paid Members Posted November 15, 2014 I like Sami Zayn (who doesn’t?) but the “road to redemption” tagline’s getting a bit hammy. I’m not sure what they’re going to call his next uprising now that he’s failed in his bid to win the NXT Championship. Again. Absolutely agree about the 'Road to Redemption' angle. By constantly referring to that they would seem to be telegraphing the whole storyline. At this point, the finish to the next NXT special event just seems far too obvious. I don't think they should ever put the belt on him to be honest, it would work better for his character to fail (be cheated yet again), then get the opportunity for the call up to main roster early next year to continue to push him from the bottom. It would make it feel so much more special should he ever win a title in WWE.
Paid Members gadge Posted November 15, 2014 Paid Members Posted November 15, 2014 It definitely feels like Zayn might lose again, as he's the one that wrestled on Main Event the last two weeks.
Paid Members Benno Posted November 15, 2014 Paid Members Posted November 15, 2014 Zayn to lose by Steen interference is my absolute favourite fantasy booking scenario. As good as him and Neville was again this week though, it's getting tiresome them spending more of their prime years spinning their wheels in developmental. Surely they have to get called up before the new year?
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted November 15, 2014 Paid Members Posted November 15, 2014 Zayn to lose by Steen interference is my absolute favourite fantasy booking scenario. That's ultimate internet blowjob booking, that. The best idea I've seen put forward for ages.
Loki Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Neville's not ready for the show. Not sure if he ever will be, there's no natural slot for him on the roster. Zany they might as well call up, though I still want him to hit the gym a bit first.
