NXT Results 12/2:
  • Detailed Results here.
  • The show opened with Triple H and the NXT roster on stage for a memorial for Pat Patterson.
  • Curt Stallion was attacked by El Legado del Fantasma before the show started. Damien Priest took out Joaquin Wilde and will now team with Leon Ruff against Santos Escobar and Raul Mendoza.
  • Leon Ruff and Damian Priest defeated Santos Escobar and Raul Mendoza in a tag match. Ruff pinned Mendoza.
  • Candice LeRae's vowed her team would win War Games this weekend.
  • Cameron Grimes defeated August Grey in a singles match. Postmatch he attacked Grey with a strap, then ran away when Dexter Lumis replaced Grey in the ring.
  • Jake Atlas defeated Tony Nese in a singles match, and dedicated the match to Pat Patterson.
  • Pat McAfee cut a promo with The Kings of NXT about War Games.
  • Xia Li and Boa were in a "ritualistic training session".
  • Imperium attacked Ever-Rise before their tag match with Grizzled Young Veterans. Imperium challenged Grizzled Young Veterans to a match.
  • Imperium vs. Grizzled Young Veterans went to a no-contest when Ever-Rise ran in and attached both teams. Postmatch, Ever-Rise ran to a waiting car, then shouted,"EVER-RISE RULES!" out the window as they peeled out.
  • Tommaso Ciampa gatecrashed Timothy Thatcher's "Thatch as Thatch Can" seminar, but thanks to interference by a student Thatcher was able to choke Ciampa out. Ciampa vs. Thatcher was made official for War Games.
  • Shotzi Blackheart defeated Raquel Gonzalez in a ladder match to get the team advantage at War Games. So the face team is going to get the numbers advantage in a War Games match?
  • This is the closest thing to discussion this show got because everybody watched AEW Dynamite instead.

Less 'gone full WWE' and more 'is insanely beat up and should never have wrestled again, but they'll let him so he stays'. Bryan's like Foley, a broke-brained wrestling addict who will do whatever as long as they keep letting him take dumb bumps.

Maybe Impact/AEW isn't going to go all that bad if WWF is doing the babyface advantage in war games.

Yeah but then Dakota Kai turned heel so when they were going to get the advantage it instead turned into disadvantage.

This time seems like the goal is purely to beat the poo poo out of the heels?

I'm happy that Ever Rise are getting personality time. Still an awful name, and that's a team that went by 2.0 for years.

On Mick Foley.

I am surprised he didn't do more backstage stuff in wrestling post in-ring career.

He is respected, smart, (as well as his autobiographies he has written a proper novel that didn't have any pictures or nothing), loves wrestling, and can tolerate Vince. I would have thought he would be a good producer/agent.

Every time they do a War Games someone has the bright idea "Everybody does the Heel's getting the advantage, what if we gave the Babyfaces the advantage." to the point where Heels getting the advantage feels fresh.

Didn't Foley say that when he was an announcer that he didn't really talk pay, and then Vince started him at like the base level pay for any new announcer on TV?

It wouldn't surprise me if that was what he assumed would happen with any backstage role and just got the gently caress out of there.

It absolutely wouldn't surprise me when you consider AEW has the talent they do in training / announcing / backstage just scooped up from Vince making GBS threads on them.
