Would Chad Gable qualify for the WO's Rookie of the Year award? As far as I can tell he never wrestled any promotion before NXT, had some random house show matches last year but didn't make his TV debut until 2015.

I only ask because Dave's criteria is so weirdly specific that Dana Brooke could end up winning by default

Shazza looks like they put Alexa Bliss's pixie gimmick into a blender with Bayley's awkwardness and a wrestler came out. At least her name stands out though; they need to diversify their new women's names. PeyKayRayKay gets a tad confusing.

I'm sure if she eventually gets signed they'll give her a great new name from their 80s TV Character Names handbook.

Why is NXT hiring every female wrestler in Australia? Serious question. Is it for tax purposes?

NXT was fun and good but giving me withdrawls from lack of Asuka murdering scrubs. I've normally defended Full Sail crowds, but 'Aussie Aussie Aussie' chants are where I draw the line. They belong in the bogan relic bin along with West Coast Wine Coolers, Rose Tattoo and Barry Mackenzie. Baby Babbeh posted:Why is NXT hiring every female wrestler in Australia? Serious question.

I drove Shazza around to various CHIKARA shows back in 2012 so it's really awesome to see her on NXT. Also, the reason Evie, Shazza, and Kay Lee Ray were on this taping was Sara Del Rey texted Lexie Fyfe (she runs SHINE and Slam min Ladies customs) the day before the taping and asked who was currently in her house. She gave her the list of names and those 3 were selected.

Give the belts to either Dawson/Wilder or Gable/Jordan and make them feud. Replace championship belts with championship towels.

Great episode. I would however like WWE to stop their continued height-shaming of Tom Phillips. Just embrace that he's a freakishly tall dude and don't have him stand weird when he's interviewing people.

They even took Enzo and Cass out of the title picture in a really straight forward way that forced some heel heat onto the Mechanics. It is so competent it is crazy.

I think that the best thing about Chad Gable is that he debuted as a heel and is now a massively over face without changing a single thing about his character. He's still a self-aggrandizing, dickish goofball, but he's just so undeniably great that people can't stop cheering for him.

I'm still not entirely sold on Jordan because he has very little personality and I think Gable carries the team, but they have entertaining matches and Gable's good at compensating for both. My current favorites are the Mechanics. Their offense is incredibly crisp and their heel tactics are old school. I think the Brainbusters comparison is pretty apt, but they put a more modern spin on it. I just wish they'd give their teams actual NAMES. Enzo/Cass, Blake/Murphy, Jordan/Gable, Dash/Dawson - I guess they're going for individual recognition as they push these teams, which is alright, but a memorable team name can go a long way. Back when they had The Rockers, Demolition, Hart Foundation, Road Warriors, Powers of Pain, Orient Express, etc. was probably my favorite period in tag wrestling, but they seem to be going the route of the Edge & Christian naming scheme. That could actually be somewhat damaging to careers - it's harder to remember for casuals, and whoever's name is in second place might by default be designated as "the Jannetty".
