I see they are continuing to push Dijack's horrible white-ethnostate character or whatever the gently caress. Because he talked about purifying the bloodline for HIS PEOPLE next week against Keith Lee.

I hope when Dijak returns the lights go out and when they come back on Luke Harper is in the ring holding his severed head.

Yes. It was part of a video package they aired hyping up Lee vs Dijack for next week's NXT. It was a very tasteless package at least when it came to Dijack's comments.

Nobody move and nobody gets hurt.

He didn't use the word "purifying" at all. He said he does this for his people, for his bloodline. The same way Rusev or the Usos would say it.

Fun match between Dain and Riddle, although LOL at Riddle getting sloppy seconds on Rollin's Internal Bleeding angle

Are they seriously dragging out Yim/Baszler after that Takeover performance?

I don't think its hard to infer exactly what he meant by that statement considering how much heat he got the last time he did something even remotely similar to that.

So DarkstarIV misrepresented something again....

Dijack made one massive mistake. He deleted the tweet and his account for a good while and hasn't repeated it since. It isn't something he has been remotely known for in the past either.

I am not saying everyone should totally forgive it or like the on-screen gimmick but at least be factual about it.

So they're moving from the one contract that under pays for the work they do to the one that will pay more but still under pay for the work that they do because the work load is increasing? Thank god the benevolence of Vince is shining through.

Also any word on if the contracts are being moved to a full time deal with the same amount of time on the contract or are they increasing the amount of time on everyone's contract? It'd be a good way to get everyone locked in for longer.

edit: Also lol at you expecting people to trust a man/company who's happily let people die for the sake of money.

They're going to end up forcing contract extensions for everyone in NXT for 5+ more years from the signing date for TV, aren't they?

That's the thought I had as well. It'd be interesting to see who, if anyone, doesn't sign a new contract if that's the case.

Most eat out of the food truck outside to my understanding. It is kinda an inside joke among Full Sail attendees that if you see a wrestler ordering food at the food truck they aren't wrestling that night. Likewise, female wrestlers wandering around in dresses and high heels outside the venue just before showtime.

Thank you, rovert. Food trucks are good but they are usually over-priced. With the assumed pay increase maybe the superstars will be able to afford it better than before, however, I think catering should be arranged if we want NXT to be the big leagues like RAW and Smack!Down!Live!

that show was amazing. the matches weren’t all at the level of Sasha/Bayley but even a pretty basic tag title match was hugely elevated by how hot the crowd was

NXT Takeovers have become very rote, they are still playing by the same playbook and the main events have come self-indulgent.

NXT Brooklyn and AEW Double Or Nothing are very similar shows in terms of freshness and vibrancy.

I am not sure to be excited to have tickets to Wargames, or uncertain of how they are going to gently caress it up.

Takeovers are nice because they are usually 3 hours and 5 matches of just the title matches and some other big feud. With 2 hours of TV and probably people coming from Raw/SD to fill up the time, I feel like Takeovers are going to go to 4 hours and filled with more matches that are shorter and not allowed to go as long.

I guess we'll see...

The only really good AEW matches so far have been like, the Rhodes bros. and CIMA / Kenny. Last Takeover had one bad match, and if you use that to cancel out Page / Sabian or the tag match where they let Luchasaurus do his half-speed roundhouse kicks instead of just be a charming cheerleader, you end up with a better in-ring product on the NXT side of things. AEW has been saving all its prime matchups for All Out anyway.
