Didn't they already film there once? Or was that some other Impact location?

There was that one time NXT did a house show (I think it was a house show anyways) a few doors down from the old Impact headquarters.

Pretty good main event tonight! Bianca’s great, the timing was clearly messed up at the end there. Rhea looked a little weird just standing at the top of the ramp while Bianca got beat up and the ending of the march was rushed as well

NXT's women's division is great, and Balor is great, the rest of their show needs a lot of work.

Also I really want NXT to be successful but doing two cage matches on the same show is never a good idea, not for a PPV, not for TV, not for a live event. One cage match, but they'll never get this.

Balor vs. WALTER will probably be extremely good, and I assume it will happen at the Dublin show.

I still think it’s hilarious that after what... 4 events, NXT UK have run out of places actually in the UK to hold something.

Still laughing that they ran Cardiff the same day as a Wales/Ireland rugby match. That's about as dumb as doing a show in Columbus on Ohio State/Michigan day.

Riddick Moss was there longer. Reina or w/e was there about as long as Rhea. which is like a year or 2? They did something with Riddick because he signed a new contract and he negotiated that he gets called up.

jesus WEP posted:Bianca Belair deserves better She really does. The sad thing is that there is actually a story to be told out of "Bianca dominates early in the Rumble but then finds herself falling short when up against fresh main eventers with years of experience, and now she wants to step up to prove herself" and it could have been quite interesting, but the story they chose to tell is,"She's a loser who gets beaten clean by both the people who kept ignoring her and not taking her seriously in the first place"

Never been a massive fan of Bianca but watching the Royal Rumble, the quality of the match dipped immediately after she was eliminated. And she deserves waaaay better than playing third wheel in this Rhea/Charlotte nonsense.

They position a character to be an underdog and either forget that they've done that or figured the audience doesn't get it enough so they do it again. The end result is the character looks like a stupid loser all the way until a fluke win happens and we're supposed to be like yay rudy you won the play(we lost the game, fuckin rudy).

coconono posted:who does better houses, NXT or Evolve? Honest answer: NXT for sure. MCW (the Maryland one, not the Melbourne one) has consistently drawn a larger crowd than Full Sail does due to capacity, and when EVOLVE ran their "arena" it was at best 3/4 full and probably more like half. NXT could likely draw more than Full Sail allows if they had the space.

Just from a storytelling perspective, where the hell are they going after this? karmicknight posted:Who the gently caress is Tino Sabbetelli. Rich, ripped, and awful in the ring. The tag team with Moss was hilarious since their gimmick was built around Toni's legit Maserati, but they kept pretending the car was owned by both of them. I wish they'd have had a skit explaining the ownership details. Oh and if anyone watched NXT UK, did they just do the stupid thing where in non gimmick matches the faces are superior and heels only survive by cheating, and then in a gimmick match the heel is just the superior wrestler and the face is stupid?
