Walter vs Dragunov 2 will take place at TakeOver: 36

Which will probably rule because no-one watches NXT UK in order to see whatever poo poo they tried to do to make it suck, so as far as anyone's concerned, it's just 'Mad Russian fighting Austrian Godzilla'.

Should be Indi vs. Candice. This whole thing where Indi has no agency is.. not great.

Don't forget, this is the same storyline that featured Dexter swapping places with Indi's masseuse. Just great all around.

I've got the feeling this is going to lead to Lumis having a Ted Bundy gimmick for some reason. Other than Dexter just having a house full of zombies and never blinking he isn't a bad guy

I get that he's not like actively killing anyone or anything but most of the clips I've seen seems like he's really pretty creepy. I mean, its a total wwe thing for the Dexter character to be a good guy with no actual payoff of the Dexter gimmick. And having not watched him in NXT I'm almost certainly assuming some of when he did this same gimmick in TNA. But... seriously, why am I thinking and caring about this mess of grossness?

I'm not interested in constructive criticism, believe me.
watching those backstage skits from NXT is like i went into a coma and woke up a year later and don't recognize anyone on BTE except it's not the wrestling-adjacent youtube comedy show it's the actual show

They should say that every released wrestler was last seen with Dexter Lumis.

WALTER/Dragunov 2 should open Takeover and also close the show it should be a 3 hour long match of these two large men beating the poo poo out of each other

Quite possibly, but unfortunately Vince might be aware that this one is happening and decide to poo poo all over it.

Implying this story doesn't have 9 months left. We'll get to it.


When they do the whole "call up to the main roster and strip away everything that made you who you were in NXT" thing to Dexter Lumis I'll be like 'oh noooooo, gosh darn it'. Knowing my luck he'll be the one guy who gets a 100% unaltered callup.

Mojo Rawley says him and Gronk were at one point supposed to do a tag match at Summerslam last year, and both aren't ruling out still doing one if a company will let them together

Also Mojo's in the new movie Snake Eyes (a GI Joe Origins story) which is in theaters now and alright surprisingly

The only thing Vince or Bruce Pritchard has seen of NXT recently is a random babyface team pairing vs Bayley and Sasha from a year ago
