NXT: Worlds Collide
 
Just turning it on...no idea what the card is, haven't kept up w/ NXT or NXT UK.

Not sure how many matches have happened, a fatal fourway just started.

It's mostly acrobatic stuff, though Walter is more catch style

Canadian Destroyers are the new Superkicks
Must have multiple in a match
Same for dives

(NXT and AEW both guilty of this)

Droford 01-25-2020 08:49 PM

Surprised Garza lost the cruiserweight title

Balor had a really good match.

100% agree with you about Canadian Destroyer. It's also one of the most unrealistic moves.

Droford 01-25-2020 09:21 PM

DIY/MM was great

Droford 01-25-2020 09:33 PM

The just call it just the NXT Championship rumor seems true

I wonder why less tickets sold to this, being the night before the RR....The Takeover before RR last year in Phoenix I went to was packed.

Hope Walter is in the RR match tomorrow. If he's already in TX why not.

Droford 01-25-2020 09:59 PM

Wonder what happened with Wolfe

Last year they sold packages for Takeover, RAW and SD since they were all in the same area.

Tonight is the only show in the Toyota Center since SD was in Dallas this past Friday and Raw is in San Antonio on Monday.

Combine that with it's NXT UK which even fewer people watch than just NXT and it's not surprising.

I think in the future maybe they should do World's Collide WM weekend since you'd have a larger fanbase and they're still planning von doing RAW, SD Takeover and the HOF from the same Arena

Looks like he caught a kick right on the chin and got knocked out.

I think too it matters that it isn't a Takeover. Worlds Collide was just a throwaway taped series of matches on the Network during Mania weekend. It certainly does not have the build-up of goodwill that Takeovers do.

Seems like something where Vince just had a "Hey Pal, let's have more of those" type of thing.

Watching now. Phillips doing a nice job. Nigel great as always

Walter 'significantly better' than rest of Imperium

Have missed Tom Phillips, #1 WWE commentator baybay

Supreme Olajuwon 01-25-2020 10:19 PM

I love DIY so much. Dunno what it is. Just get invested in them more than anything else in WWE

xrodmuc316 01-25-2020 10:24 PM

This is a really fun match.

Droford 01-25-2020 10:25 PM

Kinda shocked imperium win but I guess it makes sense in the storyline scheme of UE crumbling

slik 01-25-2020 10:28 PM

Main-Event was fun and the right team won

I think they are much better as a team than separately.

No Roman, show sucked!

For a good stretch of time, they were pretty much repeating major feuds that happened earlier either in PROGRESS or one of WWE's other affiliated promotions in the UK and Europe. Literally down to the same exact results for matches and feud layout.

Missed the show live but just finished watching a replay and it was very good overall.

Both the pre-show women's match and Balor vs. Ilia match were good.

Cruiser title match was very good but the title change was stupid. Complete waste of the feel good moment Garza got after winning the belt and a dud of a reign since he didn't even officially defend it once before this show.

Mustache Mountain vs. DIY was amazing and MotY contender worthy.

NXT Women's title match was decent. Should have swapped this match around with MM vs. DIY since it suffered a lot from the crowd being exhausted and the match itself lacking in excitement.

Ouch at Wolfe getting nailed in the face with a rough kick. Undisputed Era vs. Imperium was great overall.

Jordan 01-26-2020 11:53 AM

I only saw the main event and while it had its issues it was pretty great finale for any show. Walter is so good. Also Roderick Strong.
