I would like to add into this, that Tegan Nox is legitimately one of the least interesting women in all of NXT right now, and comes across as a bigger heel than Dakota. Because for as much cheating as Dakota attempted to do in that match, Tegan did just as much, plus she had Candice interfere on her behalf (and distract the ref) so she could hit Dakota with the leg brace.

They are doing an outstandingly terrible job of portraying Dakota as the heel here.

Nope. But they advertised a face to face b/w Bianca and Rhea next week. So if she does show up, it'll definitely be then.

I’ll always support Tegan because Welsh people in wrestling is ace, and I’ve seen her work small indie shows and know she’s cool and good.

However...

I think mostly when they meant talking to the dirtsheets they meant not leaking who is going to be at the mania shows for surprises.

that makes sense if they're gonna use the PC to get ppl ready. But that also makes no sense because the PC has way too many people as it is.

The wrestler in the fightful article says his issue was to do with them reminding them they're independent contractors and then telling the wrestlers who they aren't allowed to talk to in their free time.

Takeover Tampa probably. I think Bianca is getting called up after Mania though.

Rhea was like a fish out of water in this segment. She is a god awful promo and only has one or two facial reactions and it sucks.

Letting my bias show for a bit, it loving sucks Io is injured because she 100% deserves to be in that top echelon of women right now. Hopefully she gets a monster push when she returns.

I'll probably get crucified for this, but whatever. The reason she walked out was financially motivated apparently. Assuming the stories are true about the baseline for NXT contracts being $60,000, then I have no clue what she was thinking if she plans to continue wrestling. She wasn't good in the ring at all, and the only promotion in America which could offer competitive pay would likely be AEW. And they absolutely do not need nor should they sign Taynara.

I honestly think she's going to end up going into modeling considering her recent habits on Instagram.

poo poo I’d walk if I was getting paid 60k to throw myself at the ground and found out that was my pay ceiling. After travel and medical you’re maybe keeping half of that. Which taxes eat at least a third of that so it’s barely over poverty levels.

Yeah, NXT wrestlers should be paid a hell of a lot more regardless of whether or not they are actually good. And the only people who have the ability to walk are those who can fall back on non-wrestling careers, which isn't many. Good for Taynara.

Taynara wasn't great on her own but she was perfect for the Brazilian MMA stable they never did anything with. I always thought Cezar Bononi had potential (he does some pretty good character work at house shows).
