Wont lie, I flinch everytime I see them do the reverse frankensteiner or whatever new name theyve given it.

that move is a staple in the independents... like Ring of Honor and New Japan

that's a common move and I know these NXT guys have been using it for years so I'm sure they know how to execute it safely

but yeah... how that move, Gargano's lawn dart move, and the Canadian Destroyer is allowed in the current WWE is beyond me

Lawn dart throw is another, that with Shayna's step on hand & stomp the elbow shite and even Pete's finger jitsu makes me cringe.

he's able to snap his own fingers somehow to make that noise (and then... of course... the opponent has to sell the move)... I'm convinced that's how that happens

Started watching last night and got halfway through the UK match before I passed out, started it up again a little earlier. On the women’s match now and Io is a juicy little cherry blossom.

Io and Kairi need to be brought up to the main roster for a true women’s tag division. It’s a damn shame that none of the Japanese women on the roster speak English well because Asuka, Kairi, and Io are in the top 5 of WWE female wrestlers alongside Becky and Ember.

the Sky Pirates (Io Shairi & Kairi Sane) will be WWE Women's Tag Team Champions... and sooner rather than later

I think the difference between NXT and the main roster shows are the crowds. They play a huge part of these shows. The only people that really go to NXT shows are Die hards, smarks, and IWC.

A much different setting in main roster crowd. Parents bringing kids. Casual fans. Lot of die hards here as well but there’s so many different types of fans at the big shows.

Also, NXT isn’t as saturated as the main product. You only get 4-5 shows a year whilst the main roster puts on a monthly PPV, which they should really consider stopping to make the product more special.

so rumors are going about that Ricochet may have gotten hurt during the NXT Tag Title match last night



Y’all didn’t notice the EMTs and a referee checking on him after the match? It wasn’t your usual, “hey are you alright?! wink wink”.

One small thing that NXT does for their shows that I love that I wish the main shows would do is turn down the lights on the crowd and put the spotlights just on the ring. Pulls everyone’s focus to the ring. Kind of like going to the movie theater than watching a movie at home.

NXT is the only show that leaves you anxiously waiting till the next week to see where the story goes like RAW used to back in the day. It always builds to a finish and leaves you hanging like damn, I cant wait till next week.

Great card. Felt the women’s match could have gone on a few minutes longer. Shayna is about to get xpac heat though.

It's time to bump her up. Other than Bianca I dont see any other female with a chance to beat her. And she's tapped her twice now
