Lock Jaw 07-04-2014 10:58 PM

Didn't the BFFs win their match? Maybe I missed something, but I didn't see a breakup.

Emperor Smeat 07-04-2014 11:06 PM

Was from a segment afterwards where Charlotte said she's done being Sasha's tag partner and the group itself.

Lock Jaw 07-04-2014 11:23 PM

Hmmm... didn't see that happen....

Lock Jaw 07-05-2014 01:31 AM

Really interesting to read through early pages of this thread.

VSG 07-05-2014 01:44 AM

It's been a pretty good ride so far.

Mr. Nerfect 07-05-2014 07:39 PM

I thought Xavier Woods was an odd choice as the first guy to have Bull Dempsey steam-roll. I'm not sold on him, but Gertner is, and Gertner is usually right. I want the persona to succeed, but he just looks like such a baby-faced guy. It feels like the guy should have a massive chip on his shoulder. He seems like the sort of personality that would have done really well in ECW or on the Heyman SmackDown era.

Mr. Nerfect 07-05-2014 07:40 PM

Becky Lynch is adorable. I love how the women are treated down in NXT. I'm thinking Summer Rae beats Bayley (haven't read the spoilers) and Sasha appears in her corner against Charlotte. Meanwhile, Banks can get wins against Alexa Bliss and Bayley to build her up as a challenger.

Mr. Nerfect 07-05-2014 07:41 PM

NXT is getting more and more great tag teams, but I still want Epico & Primo as NXT Tag Champs, dammit! I know I'm the only one. Big Cass & Enzo will be your next champs, I'm betting.

SlickyTrickyDamon 07-05-2014 07:50 PM

Speaking of NXT Renee Young is moving on up. She's now full time announcer for Superstars. Let's hope she can move up to Smackdown or Raw.

Mr. Nerfect 07-05-2014 08:10 PM

I really want to see Christian join an announce team. I've always thought he'd make a great commentator, although not all good talkers do. His work on panel shows has been, in my opinion, exemplary. He knows what to focus on when putting guys over. Plus, he's quick-witted enough to jabber back and forth and not look lost. He's funny enough to make nice quips. And he's got the ability to play both a face and heel character well. I think he'd have a good dynamic with Michael Cole and JBL. He'd bicker with JBL just enough to give different perspectives, but not enough for it to become distracting from the show. Trial it out on SmackDown.

Evil Vito 07-12-2014 12:56 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Nooooo this thread can't be on the second page!

Feel like it's been said ad nauseum on here but they seriously need to either call the Ascension up or just get rid of them at this point. I believe they're both in their mid-30s or so and have been in development for several years. Actually I think this is Konnor's second run with the company so he's probably somewhere around 7-8 years in development. I really don't think there's anything left for them to do in NXT. They need to sink or swim on the main roster.</font>

Innovator 07-12-2014 12:58 PM

I think they put the Ascension in a holding pattern until Enzo was healthy

Discussion in this thread dropped dramatically once it got on the WWE network and people stopped posting links. I am guilty of it too.

Ya, definitely need to do something with the Ascension. They started off soo good as a 5 person stable :'(

Dude looks like Community's "Fat Neil" in a singlet and he is legit just ripping off Eddie Kingston's promo style and catch phrase.

Please make him go away.

Innovator 07-18-2014 12:15 PM

No

No

nononononononono

VSG 07-18-2014 02:23 PM

LOL

I kinda guessed that would happen. I don't really care for either of them so the worst now is I get to ignore them both together.

Emperor Smeat 07-18-2014 05:06 PM

So Bull is now a face?

Seemed odd how they suddenly broke up a few tag teams even though a big tag team tournament is about to start.

Bad News Gertner 07-18-2014 06:28 PM

Bull Dempsey is everything, including the next NXT champion!

If it happens in the indies then it didn't happen

About time. If TNA is truly done, then I am going to pretend NXT is its own little wrestling promotion.

XL 08-02-2014 04:04 AM

So Becky Lynch changed her "I'm really, really Irish and can't stop jigging around" to "I'm a crazy rock chick".

Innovator 08-02-2014 08:30 AM

And it's a great upgrade

Evil Vito 08-02-2014 09:27 AM

<font color=goldenrod>They probably took the over-the-top Irish gimmick away from her so they can give it to Devitt.</font>

Not too shabby.

VSG 08-02-2014 01:40 PM

Wait, who's that between Bayley and Rosa Mendes?

Also damn@Alexa Bliss. I didn't think she was that petite.

Mr. Nerfect 08-02-2014 07:33 PM

Interesting to see how Rosa Mendes does down in NXT. Still want to see her bring back Epico & Primo dammit!

Bayley is so freakin' adorable and Becky Lynch is so freakin' over for a girl who hasn't done much on television. She's got a great story to tell too. Love the NXT girls.

Mr. Nerfect 08-02-2014 07:34 PM

Bull Dempsey is starting to grow on me, and weirdly enough, I sort of like the pairing with Mojo Rawley. They both seem like "immature" gimmicks to me, and two guys that are a little out of their depth playing them. I think that the contrast they are going for might sharpen them as performers nicely and allow you to care and empathise with them a bit more.

Mr. Nerfect 08-02-2014 07:35 PM

That being said, I could see them lose in the semi-finals of the tournament and then Bull just maims Mojo and the two build to a match for the next live special.

Mr. Nerfect 08-02-2014 07:55 PM

My predictions for the next live special:

NXT Championship
Adrian Neville (c) vs. Tyler Breeze

NXT Women's Championship
Charlotte (c) vs. Bayley

NXT Tag Team Championship
The Ascension (c) vs. Sin Cara & Kalisto

Tyson Kidd vs. Sami Zayn

Mojo Rawley vs. Bull Dempsey

Poit 08-21-2014 08:56 PM

Tonight I'm watching NXT LIVE on the WWE Network!

Innovator 08-21-2014 09:00 PM

Becky Lynch how ya doing

Poit 08-21-2014 09:04 PM

Regardless of who wins this tournament, they need to beat the Ascension.

Poit 08-21-2014 09:06 PM

That was a pretty awesome move.

Poit 08-21-2014 09:08 PM

Oh shit not the beard.

Poit 08-21-2014 09:09 PM

Totally just having a conversation with myself here.

Someone else should join me.

Poit 08-21-2014 09:15 PM

Heel vs. heel match right now.

Face vs. face match in the main event.

What madness is this?

Poit 08-21-2014 09:17 PM

NXT Takeover II announced.

"History will be made once again on September 11th".

I, uh, yeah.

Poit 08-21-2014 09:24 PM

I'm still wondering when Charlotte got good. Like, it wasn't a gradual thing. It just happened.

Poit 08-21-2014 09:35 PM

Mojo Rawley lost his smile.
