Watching NXT this week
Here we go.
|
Glad Beth Phoenix addressed the Edge/Orton stuff.
|
Finn Balor comes across much more complete as a heel. Never got into him as a babyface.
|
Balor's "Prince" graphic needs to be better integrated. Looks weird how they've done it.
|
Trent Seven comes off like a bit of a goofy bitch, but if that's his role, cool.
|
Seven reminds me of Jocephus from the NWA.
|
Those "too sweet" chants are fucking awful.
|
This is going too long. Didn't need to go through a commercial. Balor should have just put the bitch in a submission and that be that.
|
Okay, these guys just started beating the shit out of each other. Kind of getting into it.
|
Don't like the name 1916. Why can't it just be Bloody Sunday?
|
I like the banners in the background. And Riddle and Dunne have fantastic chemistry.
|
That hype video made Nox vs. Kai look pretty brutal. In a good way.
|
Never seen Shotzi Blackheart before. The entrance is...something.
|
Deonna Purrazzo looks amazing.
|
|
I like the structure of this show so far. Beth Phoenix addressing Raw into Finn Balor, a TV star, into promotion for two mains with one segueing into another women's match featuring an interesting girl and one that looks like a star. Then we get some Keith Lee.

Keith Lee's got charisma.
|
Can we please get someone responding to "You deserve it!" with "of course I do, dummies."
|
I hate it when a guy's special entrance interrupts someone. Just walk out and cut them off.
|
Damian Priest comes off as a bit of a try-hard. Good look, good voice -- pretty forced promo.
|
Good back-and-forth match, but it feels like a bunch of spots. I would like to see them end this sort of stuff quicker.
|
They did all that shit well, don't get me wrong. I get their big men with that hard-hitting style, and they're trying to both give it and take it, but...eh.
|
Cathy Kelley so gorgeous and not nearly as annoying as main roster interviewers.
|
I really wish these "Daddy's home" chants would lead to John Cena challenging Tommaso Ciampa for the NXT Championship.
|
Tommy Ciampa's also got presence.
|
Oh, that was fucking cool. Great angle.
|
The blood adds so much.
|
Don't feel too good about the two things them promoting for next week being "such and such will be there." Well, the two things so far.
|
Dakota Kai not very good, at least in this role. She's just not believable. It's a nice heel tactic. Tegan Nox seems a lot better.
|
That was short enough and it looks like we might be going into a tag team feud.
|
Think that teaser was for Killer Kross.
|
Chelsea Green's presentation is pretty good. Brian Last thought Robert Stone was a Tony Khan gimmick and now I can't unsee it.
|
Kayden Carter is such a porn name.
|
I don't really have any thoughts about that match. Both ladies trying hard, but there is so much talent in that women's division, they just don't stand out.
|
Takeover Portland shaping up to be a great card.
|
The British guys have shit names.
|
Drake's got a good look, but there's just nothing to this team personality wise.
|
Matt Riddle freaky talented.
