Bonus Arena is actually twice the size of the Cambridge Corn Exchange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winston Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Really good angle with Walter and Tyler Bate there. Just how much better would RAW be with angles like this on it. They've diluted their own product so much by spreading it out over all these shows. PPV's are filled with filler like Miz vs. Ziggler when they could be building stars with stuff like this on their flagship show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think the main shows suffer terribly from too many cooks syndrome due to being overly controlled. The great thing about the smaller brands is that usually their creative team and process is smaller and simpler, allowing them to generally be better booked.

TildeGuy~! Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I don’t watch the show but is referee Chris Roberts on it often now? Rev Pro tweeted it will be his last event for them on the weekend and he retweets NXT UK quite often, quite surprised if he’s with them full time as he’s rather tall.

Paid Members BomberPat Posted August 15, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted August 15, 2019 He's worked a few shows with them recently, and looks to be going full-time. They had turned him down in the past for being too tall for them, but obviously that doesn't seem to be the case any more. In that it's no longer an issue. They haven't kneecapped him.

Kfogg1991 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I read somewhere or maybe heard on a podcast that Chris has signed to wwe and will be going full time for them. If that's the case then massive well done to him he's worked so hard over the years to be one of the best ref's this country has to offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WyattSheepMask Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Takeover Cardiff is “sold out”, but it’s one of those magic sold outs we’re you can still buy tickets on TicketMaster. Also, Cesaro is going to be there for some reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Supremo Posted August 27, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted August 27, 2019 I’m well up for some Cesaro vs. Dunne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) Re: Balor v Devlin - I remember them looking like a Tag Team that had split and were having the feud match, and being very happy that I wasn’t watching Travis Banks. That first UK Takeover is a bit of a crack in hindsight to be honest. I remember enjoying the Bate/Seven v Grizzled Young Vets Tag match, but they did the ‘Frye/Takayama Punchy’ spot in 3 separate matches, and Dunne/Coffey should have been at least 10 minutes shorter than it was.

Let's hope Cesaro arrives in Cardiff to turf Banks out of another Takeover and takes his spot against Dar. I would enjoy watching Cesaro swing Banks away. He'd probably launch him across the border, proportionally it'd be like flinging a Mighty Max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the cartoon-ish thing that Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens feel compelled to do whenever they square up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
