    Is it old news that
    Roderick Strong
    has been offically unveiled?

    Fairly mediocre episode this week generally but loved the brawl between Joe and Shinsuke. I always want to see the wrestlers deck the security guards that're trying to pull them apart.

    Where are we in the recordings? Just thought the crowd were dead during some of the matches, including the women.

    I've seen the same lad in an Antrim jersey in the front row for at least 2 weeks, possibly 3 weeks. Another week or two should see a fresh crowd.

    New crowd next week boys

    Catching up on this week's show at the moment. Bobby Roode's entrance and particularly his theme are just...glorious. No Way Jose and Rich Swann were fun too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,557 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    So in people's opinions, who in NXT would be ones to watch, outside the names like Roode, Joe and Aries?
    Seems Morgan is being built as the main woman's face and Billie and Peyton the next Charlotte or Summer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,013 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Patrick Clark seems to have come a long way in a short time. Nikki Cross on the women's side is clearly well thought of.

    Patrick Clark's new gimmick reminds be of JoJos Bizarre Adventure.

    So Aliyah is face then? The double team from Billie and Peyton (while it might sound like fun) actually looked pretty sore with the face to the knee bulldog

    Yeah Aliyah's theme and presentation are all heel but they were playing up her being Liv's friend. Not gone on Aliyah as a character just yet to be honest, or Liv Morgan really though she's being pushed hard and, it must be said, is very good looking which won't hurt her chances. Still fairly early days career wise with both though I guess.

    So was that 6 woman match being set up for Takeover? Hard to tell. Liv needs more mic work, I think.

    I I was wondering who could be Returning. Honestly, I didn't even notice he was missing.

    I noticed he was gone, I just didn't really care about the character tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,028 ✭✭✭seandotcomm


    I reaaaally hoped he was future endeavoured :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,013 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    If someone could kindly put up the latest card for Takeover, I'd be most grateful. I'm sure I could find it if I looked hard enough but I'm feeling lazy. I'll probably watch most of it live.

    1am ? It's 8pm est.

    I'm looking forward to the nxt title match, the women's title match (ill mark out for mickie James's theme) and the the revival(Jim cornettes man crush tag team) vs DIY


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,557 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Is 5 matches about the same number as usual?

    Is the 6 woman tag match on as well or is that next week's NXT?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,096 ✭✭✭✭the groutch


    Really looking forward to seeing Roode's entrance in his hometown.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,288 ✭✭✭Virtanen


    Yeah, 5 seems to be the normal number now, outside of Brooklyn

    I'm guessing the 6-woman match will be recorded tonight and shown next week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Paul Ellering suspended above the ring in a shark cage :D


    Now that's old school:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,013 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    A nice nod to the Last Battle of Atlanta. Watched that on the network, nice stiff match but it was hard to get the context with no commentary.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    Absolutely nailed roodes entrance again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    That might be the most Glorious entrance of all time ðŸ˜႒


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    That was a Glorious match


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 24,164 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I love that it's not even that Ellering is in a cage, but that he's in a cage suspended over the ring because why not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,567 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Literally the perfect ending to the match, that was outstanding.

    Gargano and Ciampa are so unbelievably likeable, they have the Sami Zayn vibe going for them.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 24,164 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I loved that match.
