NXT TAKEOVER: BROOKLYN Official Thread
 

LET'S GOOOOOOOO

Renee looking super fuckable 2nite

Ready to OD on wrestling these next three days. F yeah

Bayley to Belly maybe the worst finisher on the roster right now.

It's NXT time mother fuckers! Time to drop my shorts and get out the old wrestling lube for the weekend.

Byron stopping two ladies from dancing....is he gay?

So.....Blue Pants comes to counter Alexa Bliss, right?

If they announce an NxT show like this the night before 'Mania, I'm going.

Really want the crowd to be hot hot hot for this.

Ugh I dont like Blue Pants for some reason

She's the only one I can think of unless they debut someone totally new, right? I'm assuming whoever it is isn't here for a one-off and will be around to take part in an angle.

Tonight's card:

What starts the show? Breeze/Liger?

I'm stunned Liger is "only" 50 years. Figured he'd be like ten years older.

Ok great opening

Was waiting for Triple H to go with "LET'S GET READY TO SUUUUUCKKKKKKKKK ITTTTTTTT"

Ok awesome

Love the Pharaoh motif. Hope he goes over.

Well, his seasonal residence is in Cairo.

:lol: Jushin mocking Breeze

That arm trap backstabber was pretty sweet.

Hope we get a special appearance from Enzo and Cass so the crowd pops huge for em

"Full Sail sucks" chant. :lol:

This is the first time that I am seeing Jushin "Thunder" Liger wrestle.

Same here.

lame

That was fast.

Sigh. Breeze really needed a win here.

Nia Jax?

More evidence that X-Pac wears a bandana at all times.

Seizure warning.

Gotch in a top hat :lol:

And a diaper.

One of the Vaudevillans need a monocle to make that entrance perfect with those hats.

Seizure lights!

BLUE PANTS :eek:

lol...Price is Right theme

I feel bad for Alexa, Blake and Murphy sucked her into their Personality Blackhole.

The referee's expression while holding the titles was priceless.

<font color=goldenrod>Nia Jax is another cousin of The Rock. So she'll likely get a big push fairly quickly.</font>

Blue Pants city?!!!!

BLUE. PANTS. CITY.

Why not hire every member of that over rated family sheeesshh

Damn. Simon Gotch has some legs there.

Damn. Alexa Bliss has some ass there.

Blake/Murphy need the titles more but I'm ok if they drop em.

That was actually a nice twist to the Tower of Doom spot.

<font color=goldenrod>YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!</font>

Yaaaaaaaaaaas!

:y: Vaudevillians as champs

<font color=goldenrod>The Vaudevillians > Bland & Murphy</font>

I don't actively dislike Blake & Murphy. But during that match, I noticed that they had their names on their trunks, and that was the only way I knew who was who.

Also, they're keeping Alexa Bliss out of the title picture. Boo to that.

Time to sacrifice Tye Dillinger to Apollo Crews.

Bobby Lashley is back! Oh wait a sec here.....

Tye Dillinger's hair is ridiculous.

<font color=goldenrod>Yep, I think they're good in the ring. But they just kinda bore me.

Also I just love The Vaudevillians. Think it's so cool that Ryan Drago (Gotch) got to carry his over-the-top gimmick into NXT and it's worked on a bigger stage so far.</font>

The one and only thing I dislike about the Vaudevillains is that Aiden English has stopped singling ever since the team formed.

Ah man! I missed the title change :(

Is Dillinger using the Million Dollar Dream sleeper?

Looks very similar if not.

Hope that standing moonsault, while impressive, isn't his finisher.

<font color=goldenrod>Well that was quite the debut. A few more matches like that and I might be changing my name to Vito Crews or Apollo Cruz.</font>

Gorilla press + standing moonsault seems like a very odd combination for a finisher. Almost like it came from the 80s. Dunno.

Impressive match from both of them though!

Wow next special is happening a lot sooner than usual. Nice touch to have a tournament in Dusty's honor.

I'd never seen this Apollo Crews guy before just now. Impressive.

Love Dillinger's gimmick also.

Baron Corbin looked like he had more charisma as a NFL guy than in the WWE now :-\

Has Corbin lost yet?

Came late to the party.

VAUDEVILLIANNNNNNNNSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

Who's the ring announcer? He's doing a pretty good job.

Also, Uhaa Nation is fucking awesome. Should have been signed a couple years ago. Gonna miss the name though because it was pretty great.

Samosa Joe works best with cruiserweights.

Bull Dempsey seems way better than Baron Corbin from what I've seen. No idea why Corbin won that feud and seems to be the favored one.

they really need to find a gimmick they can hide Corbin in.

Something like a new age Undertaker

Something went really wrong with whatever they were planning for Corbin for him to go back to doing nothing after that feud.

This might be Corbin's best match so far on NXT.

....until that suplex

?

He's lost a couple times, Drebin.

... and once more.

Pretty much.

That seemed like a good way to end the match. The veteran wins, but Corbin is neither pinned nor taps out.

mmmmmmmm Steph

A wild McMahon appears!

I'm with you, guy holding the "Push Breeze" sign.

Except the commentary team gave that ending away :lol:

It seems like Rick Rubin is at all Summer Slam events.

Cmon Enzo and Cass.......

Milf McMahon

Very unfair for Sasha Banks and Kevin Owens to have to concern themselves with major title matches the night before major matches at SummerSlam. Very unfair. Big disadvantage.

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah kinda wish Breeze had won. He jobs in every Takeover it seems.

Also it'd have been nice to get a heel win thrown in for a change of pace as we appear to be looking at a clean sweep for the faces. I'd be very surprised if Bayley or Balor lost, but I suppose we'll see. Great show so far.</font>

Wait, did the ladder match open the show or is this just one of those "We're gonna call it a main event just for the hell of it" things?

No, they billed this as a "double main event" with the Banks/Bayley match being the other.

Takeover usually has dual main events - Women's Championship and NXT Championship.

Firmly in Sasha's corner tonight.

Bayley's theme is really catchy......it aint no Boss theme though.

Shisen Kopf watching status of this rassle art show?

TPWW - decide my dinner.

Burger, sushi, or Italian

DEL RIO!!!!!!!!

Burger

sushi

So, Bayley and Sasha Banks have the two best theme songs in NXT, right?

Nice of Sasha to bring her ... wait a minute those guys are neither wacky, waving, or inflatable.
