NXT on Raw (Spoilers)
I wanted to make a thread about this instead of putting this in the Raw thread because it might run long and I was going to mention some other stuff not really associated with Raw. I meant to post this last night, but my internet was being an asshole.
I'll begin by saying last's nights ending to the show was not just one of the best endings I have seen in a long time, it was one of the best endings I've ever seen on a wrestlign show period. Sometimes I get the quesiton from people on why I still watch wrestling or I even ask myself that. Well I watch wreslting waiting for moments like last night. The type of moments that leave you shocked, make you mark out, and leave you craving for more. I thought the segment was perfectly done. The intensity on the NXT guys was amazing. You really believed they wanted to fuck stuff up. Every single one of them played this off perfectly. I also got to give credit to the writers for having them attack CM Punk and then I got to give credit to Punk for trying to fight back at the end there. The attack on CM Punk showed they had no allegiance to anybody. The attack on all the announcers and officials was just something you just don't see ever anymore. Fuck, that stuff didn't even happen in the Attitude era. They just laid out everyone. Bryan Danielson talking shit to Cena while he was laid out was incredible. Great reaction by him. The writers and wrestlers did a lot of little things that made this whole segment work overall. The crowd ate it up as well, which was great to see. So kudos to everyone for pulling that off. Fucking awesome stuff. Now, I do want to bring up some other points because I couldn't help but think about this after the segment. Last night's segment showed me the writers understand how to write an intense/make an impact segment. Where the fuck has this segment been for the last 10 years? Where was it in 2001 (WCW) where was it in 2002 (Nwo) Where was it in 2005? (ECW) where was it in 2008 (Legacy). There's a lot of other examples. I mean, they gave these NXT guys the biggest rub of thier wrestling lives last night, but it just irks me that I've been waiting for this segment forever and they book it for the NXT guys. I just really hope that they take them somewhere and it wasn't just to get Season 2 over. If we see Bryan Danielson challenging Cena for the Title at Summerslam, fuck I'll be very happy and everything would have been worth it. But if they do nothing for the next few weeks, then that would really suck. The WWE has something here and I hope they can keep rolling with it. We can potentialy get months worth of storylines here. You can take this thing to Survivor Series to finally end it. The hardest part is going to be making people care about the Rookies. Last night definately put them in the driver seat. I just hope they can keep this momentum going. |
