Dream's elbow drops are a thing of beauty

Jesus Christ, Dream.

If Dream was a real man, he would have grabbed the belt on the way down and THEN elbow dropped Lars Sullivan back into the dungeon he came out from.

Pulling for Dream or EC3! Cmon!

Adam Cole and EC3 the match you never knew you wanted

Damn, quit putting words in the wrestler's mouths, Mauro

Thought Dream's gimmick was supposed to be some '70s guy persona, but his tights suggest otherwise.

Cole going for the top rope sleeper! The power lurking in those 14in Pythons!

Holy fuuuuuuuuuck

Damn Rick

Did Lars just do the World's Strongest Slam?

So I take it Rick O'Shea is your bog standard flippy trampoline act Indy guy

jesus christ at that DVD on the ladder

RIPochet.

This is just plain ridiculous.

Lars Sullivan is like someone left a wax statue of Braun Strowman in the back of a car in an Arizona summer.

Holy Hell. Spent just watching this match.

Loved the shot behind the announcers showing Mauro and Percy losing their shit at that spot.

Michael Cole would have been sitting calmly saying "Oh my"

Velevatine Dream dead.

WORLD'S STRONGEST ROCK BOTTOM THRU THE LADDER

"Is it? Could it be? The slam. Oh my."

uh oh

To be fair, he primarily resides on the ethereal plane anyway.

Dream bloody a little just below his left eye.

Now James Ellsworth strolls down and climbs the ladder while all six are dead, right?

Ricochet dead

This is a stacked card yet I still feel horrible for whoever has to follow this.

This ladder match is being contested under table match rules, whoever destroys the last ladder wins

Fight Forever Chants.

mauro talking about infinity stones ffs

Lars is not very liked is he..

Going to assume PWG has at some point--and if not, they should and credit me--had a match where literally every ladder gets broken and they create a cheerleader pyramid to reach the hanging championship.

Little too much on the Infinity War comparisons

And Carmella cashes in on the winner of Moon v. Baszler. :shifty:

I'll take a dude who crams in absurdly tangential pop culture references but is 3000% into the match over a guy who sounds like he's reading bingo numbers off any day.

Everybody dead now. RIP.

All 4 guys trying to use The Force to pull the belt down

Oh jesus, EC3 head whacked the top rope on the way down on that Russian Leg Sweep didn't it?

He dead.

If Lars Sullivan wins this match, people going to throw trash in the ring like Hogan's joining the NWO again.

It's true. You needed O-73 for a bingo and I pulled O-74, giving it to someone else.

ADAM COLE!

ADAM COLE BAYBAY!!!!!

I'll take a guy who crams in pop culture references over JBL screaming dad jokes and threatening to beat up the announcers who disagree with him on SmackDown

Adam Cole Bay Bay

QUOTED FOR BEING THE TRUTH

fuck me, what a way to start of Wrestlemania weekend.

Mr. Kennedy 2.0 takes it. Meh.

Really cool that the ghost of Adam Cole won a championship. Gonna be real hard to get full body contact on a ghost to pin him, so he may also be the last North American Champion.

ok dude

Should have been Ricochet followed by Triple H throwing infinite amounts of money and promises to get Neville back to have the greatest series of matches of all time.

Exhausted and that was just the first match.

"NEXT UP: The tag team triple threat!"

Adam Cole: "God fucking damnit."

What a fucking match. Didn't realise it was 40 minutes long, just flew by.

That flying elbow by Dream was amazing .

First-ever NXT North American champion but 4th in WWE history.

Great match...... I guess I didn't really want Adam Cole to win, though..... probably either 5th or 6th on my list of who I would have wanted......

Velveteen Dream was great tonight

That was infucking sane!

PLEASE TELL HIM HE'S COOL

Bayzler is very good at playing her character

Curious to see if the crowd has much heat for this match after that. The Ember Moon / Baszler story has been okay, but not super hot like most of the other matches.

Oh good. Show sponsored tonight by 5-Hour Energy aka Heart Attack in a can.

Shayna channels all the fire + emotion of Ross Geller in her promos!

Is Ember about to make out with the guitarist.

That would be hot, I would pay to see that.

Don't like the challenger entering second...

Shayna being completely unattractive really helps her character and persona

He has a. Nice butt too

I really dont care about this match and neither should anyone else

The real problem it's a rematch without a stip on one of the two "big shows" that's already got a couple of matches with way more of a blood feud feel.

I think they can still make it good, but it's an uphill battle.

Ember Moon dont do it for me.

He is hot.

Bazler went to the Pazuzu school of selling

Every time she takes a hit, she goes

Asuka should come out, murder both of these people, then run off with her belt.

jesus

Did all of the NXT superstars pick themselves in a deadpool or something?

ya.. and these are the sanctioned matches.

Moon deserves a win here. She's not getting it, but she deserves it.

Grabbing her own hair to lock in the clutch because her left arm is shot is some amazing storytelling and even bigger props to the announcers for calling it.

Main roster equivalent: "She doesn't quite have all of it."

cant buy ember moon selling with a goofy smile on her face all the time

Whoever came up with that hair-grabbing spot for the Kirafuda Clutch deserves a huge fucking raise.

Booooooo

unique finish, but terrible spot for it after the high-spot fest before it

Baszler's theme sucks... Generic ass theme

Is Pazuzu up?

God Damn it. Green as grass heel gets an extended reign because Smarks shoot their load over sarcastic heels, no matter how awful they are. :-\ Can't wait for Shayna to hold onto the belt in fucktarded finishes for a year+

Enjoyed that match

Good storytelling

Wanted Ember Moon to fight back and win, though

Yeah. Surprisingly great storytelling and selling in that match, but with as little heat as the feud was generating--not really their fault but it's been like the same thing for four months--definitely not the right match to put on after like a Wrestlemania X-7 TLC level ladder match.

Incoming reign of terror sense tingling...

Lol @ the preview for this movie simply being a Rock promo

I can post Brie Bella's theme if you want. :shifty:

I think Shayna has done a pretty good job....... I hope Ronda can do as good of a job with her transition.

I'm just, like... not a fan of Baszler. I want to see more than "I hurt people".

Ghost of Adam Cole up next.

Looking forward to seeing AoP powerbomb some people to hayell

Gonna get a Dijak debut to take Cole's place or Strong turning, I'd guess.

What if slik runs in to be Kyle Fish or Bobby O'Riley's partner? (Not sure which one is which)

Cole gonna get taken out of the match, then come back and steal the victory.....

This sounds like clickbait.

Which means it's perfect for slik.

I mean... when it's legit I think it works.

the ladder match was fun and fucking ridiculous but I've grown to loath multi-man matches. So many spots requiring blatant cooperation. Great performance by all involved but the whole setup takes me out of it.

Mauro is grating on my nerves tonight as well... but it's made so much worse by Percy Watson ever opening his mouth. Thank god for Nigel.
