Every time I see that Ciampa picture I imagine him making a Waluigi noise as he pokes Gargano. I have no idea why.

Man's life is like the morning dew

past days many, future days few

What a phenomenal takeover from start to finish. Seeing people lift kassius ohno is always a treat. AoP are too strong for this world. Extreme rules legitimately scared me. Shayna and ember both look like sincere and talented beginners.

I hope next takeover is a triple threat with ciampa added in.

Kylie has it. If you thought Evie and Bayley had natural lovability, you ain't seen nothing yet.

She could tighten it up a little in the ring but that's basically everyone on the indies anyway.

it's a shame that Lovability is a poo poo-rear end gimmick to have and guarantees you will die.

I'm going to start wrestling and have my gimmick be that my gimmick is really bad and confusing.

I'm hoping wwe will gently caress it up so badly that I'll end up being the next Hogan.

Sage Beckett (fka Rosie Lottalove) and Reina Gonzalez returned to NXT tonight at a house show. If you even remember who they are. I had to look them up because I forgot about both of them. All I remember about Sage is that she is offensively bad in the ring. Reina isn't much better either.

Sage Beckett and Reina are both actual bad wrestlers though. Sage was in TNA for awhile, and all of her matches were really not good. I do remember with Sage is that she managed to legitimately injure people during her tryout matches.

Sage was the shaman/witch person right? She was alright. I mean after the women's rumble reminded us of what WWE used to have my bar for offensive is way below Sage Beckett.

I think that was Rosemary or Daffney? Hell if I know. TNA has a ton of overlapping gimmicks. But in TNA, Sage was known as Rosie Lottalove. She was a fairly big lady. Trained by the Dudleys I think.

Speaking of MIA women Abbey Laith wasn't brought to NXT in Philly, the NXT Atlanta tapings nor wrestled tonight. Has wrestled in general in 3 weeks. I wonder if she's injured if not they seem to remain ice cold on her.
