I feel like they'd be on TV if it was 2014 NXT.

Huh. Wonder if they'll try and get Drew back if the blank slate thing is true.

Roque11 posted:So would that be the case with Cesaro's deal expiring soon? I wouldn't be shocked, but I wonder about time lines. Cesaro first signed in Sept 2011. I always thought WWE usually signs people to 3 year deals. Being that he's been with WWE for 5 years he obviously renewed at some point and i wonder if it was in 2014 or 2015. Unless there are some details I don't know about. I thought I remembered hearing about Cesaro re-signing a couple years back, but I'm not certain. I'd be surprised if he gave up Raw money though. He's honestly not in that bad of a position.

I kinda wish his name on the tron was the first announcement of him coming to NXT, after weeks of Regal saying "I've searched the globe to find the perfect opponent for you."

I think the bigger news there is that Cornette publicly states an opinion that doesn't make everyone want to smack him.

They're going to do some kind of carny as gently caress angle when Vince dies and it's going to be amazing. I bet it's in his will.

I really want them to do something different with Gargano and Ciampa. Have them rise up the ranks of NXT, then WWE, with everyone thinking they're going to split and one is going to turn against the other. But no, friendship prevails and they're BFFs forever, and sometimes they challenge each other to singles matches because it's fun.

They'd add a woman permanently to the commentary table just so they could run a gimmick where she drools over him incessantly.

A lot of people who translate promos for Dragon Gate have mentioned issues with understanding CIMA as well, and he's from Osaka too. I especially notice his rolling r's.

I can't put my finger on it, but Steve Cutler kinda bums me out. It's like when an acquaintance or neighbor recommends a mechanic because it's their nephew, and you take your car to him and he's alright, but you know there's better stuff in town. He's perfectly serviceable, but why.

It's all because Kevin Dunn still has a Grima Wormtongue-like sway over Vince and rasps into his ear "She needs some tiiiiitttsssssssssss...." every time a woman appears on TV.

RealFoxy posted:The longer Asuka goes undefeated the bigger of a problem it's gonna be unless they sign some super-indy prospect or Joshi to take the title off her. They've kind of got this massive crop of new women right now while not really doing anything with them. Asuka's firmly on top with the gap left by Bayley/Alexa/Nia's departures, but they should've used the last several months building up Billie and Peyton too (which they sort of have with the former, but not by much). Ember just debuted, Liv is still really green, and then off the top of my head there's Aliyah, Santana, Deonna, Nikki, Mandy, Daria, Rachel, and they keep signing more. It's a good future crop, but there are so many people on the roster that most of them won't get TV time unless the format changes toward the next Takeover. What I do like is that for all but the title scene, NXT's undercard has felt a bit more like developmental again recently, the way it did before and during the first few Takeovers. sticklefifer fucked around with this message at 22:15 on Sep 15, 2016 |

MacDougall posted:If they treat them well and have a really good plan around their character development and keep them really focused on their character the Mad Max Fury Road stuff could get over and people would like it. Or they'll keep them together when they get called up and The Ascension will join them anyway. Or they'll join The Ascension, since their whole "wasteland" thing already exists.

I hope the singalong stops or at least lessens if Nakamura gets called up. I'd mind it much less if Full Sail could carry a goddamn tune, but it's like they're determined to go off key immediately.

 Please please let Itami and Ibushi fight each other after they lose in the tournament. There's like no other time that match could possibly happen otherwise, and outside of NOAH tag matches I don't think it's ever happened before. If not for the Itami/Aries feud that could easily be a Takeover bout.Sockser posted:NXT is suffering from having its roster decimated. You lost the four horse women (plus Alexa and Nia), you lost Sami, Owens, Neville, Finn, Enzo and Cass, I guess Gargano and Ciampa, probably Joe in the near future (aside from big indie stars surrounding the titles, anyway)

spudsbuckley posted:It's always been that  , but as far as the current crop not being as good, ehhh not really. Older NXT/FCW was pushing pre-oblivious heel Bo Dallas as a superface in the main event for literally years, and its midcard was lame as hell with only a few bright spots for quite some time. It only started getting really good shortly before the first Takeover. The fun part for me at least was watching people develop their characters, not watching newbies struggle to put on a good match. The matches were rarely memorable.

The Full Sail audience trying to dance to the Bollywood Boys' entrance was quite possibly the whitest thing I've ever seen. MinibarMatchman posted:not sure if it's a spoiler still about who's in Sanity but for anyone who already knows, I had questions about the people involved: I know Nikki Storm is great and I know who Eric Young is but does anybody have any thoughts on Alex Wolfe and Sawyer Fulton? No idea what they're like or what their pedigree is. The former only signed a year ago but has been on the indies for a long time and was wXw champ for a time. He seems pretty decent though I haven't seen him a whole lot of his stuff. The latter has been jobbing in NXT for like 4 years and used to tag with Angelo Dawkins. He never stood out much to me.

They should've had Bronson Matthews debut instead of Dan Matha, just to nail home the point that Tough Enough was a complete wash and that Patrick and Mandy were the people they really wanted to win instead.

Baron Corbyn posted:Honestly, neither Gail Kim nor Mickie James should get the rub of looking like they're remotely on Asuka's level when they're both pushing 40 and not coming back to WWE long term so it should matter less who's going to put on the technically better match and who's going to make Asuka look better when she destroys her. I would totally buy a Victoria comeback. I don't even care that she's 45.
