Dream is really fuckin great, but that shellshock DDT needs to be his finisher. It looks absolutely brutal.

I'm interested to see how Fish and O'Reilly get neutralized for the extreme rules match on Saturday. I can't see them losing the titles already, so it won't be a straight up AoP destruction. But they have to be out of the match unless Aleister Black is losing (not likely) or going full Super Cena. Maybe Black will finally get some allies? Some large bearded allies with Viking proclivities?

Sanity run in after the tag match for a beatdown to set up a rematch at WM weekend

Not that I don't believe that, but did the suspicion arise due to the picture she took with Kassius in Japan where it looked like she was wearing a neck brace? Because if so, I'm pretty sure that's one of the surgeon masks that the Japanese wear over there to prevent the spread of disease. She just had it down for the photo.

True.

Meltzer said she was "banged up" but never elaborated.

I guess if the UK show isn't happening you might as well make it the NXT midcard belt.

I feel like they've had non-Brits challenging Dunne and Bate before. And as much as I love seeing Dunne and Bate, please have Roddy win that, we don't need to see British Strong Style explode AGAIN for the fourth time in a year.

Anyone going to the NXT Toms River show tomorrow night? Last house show before Takeover/Rumble. Anyone think there could be some cool appearances? It’s like 2 miles from my house and my son is hoping for all kinds of random things like Sami and Bayley.

There is virtually no chance of Bayley or Sami showing up. Sorry. As for appearances, it'll probably be similar to what NXT Albany was tonight. Appearances by Kairi Sane, Alister Black, etc.

That’s fine honestly. He’s just going nuts thinking that since it’s the last NXT show before the weekend that there will be all kinds of crazy things going on haha. He’s 10, I gotta humor the kid 😀

Get a cheesesteak, a roast pork, and a pretzel because they are all great foods and we need to stop thinking of everything as a binary choice. Also because you are a goon and that should amount to a light snack.

man these center stage tapings just confirms to me that they need to take the tv tapings on the road every so often. hopefully it leads to full sail not being hot garbo when they come back.

you might be happy to hear they're taping again at full sail on feb 1 and 2 (which I think will carry them all the way through Mania, which is kinda crazy)

oh that makes sense for 3 episodes a taping; I thought Mania was a week earlier than it actually is and they'd just do 4 eps at each

eh, maybe Full Sail will be extra appreciative since it'll have been a couple months, at least :v:
