Tyson Kidd vs Micheal McGillicutty feud has been amazing.

Nobody watches NXT but their feud has been fantastic, as have their matches.

I just don't see why they can't bring that kind of consistent good booking up to the shows with guys people actually care about.

McGillicutty's interviews have improved leaps and bounds. Love this "You aren't a real Hart" thingy he's been feuding with Kidd about. Very, very entertaining.

Yeah, Tyson Kidd is way more likeable as a face than I thought he would be. And McGillicutty is definitely getting better. Not that he had anywhere to go but up... but still.

I watch NXT. And I look forward to it more than RAW or Smackdown most weeks.

NXT has been pretty golden ever since they started to ignore the competition part.

I forgot to record it this week, but I was really keen to see this match, so I'll go ahead and watch it. Thanks, Gertner.

Michael McGillicutty was pretty awesome in NXT Season Two. His heel transformation at the end made sense, and him joining Nexus was cool, but the whole group sort of lost direction as did McGillicutty. The man is a really solid presence in the ring and not actually bad on the mic -- just hasn't perfected it yet. The only thing I don't get is why he is still using the McGillicutty name now that he's really focused on "being a Hennig." It really annoys me when the WWE has guys from families, but then gives them a fake surname. I have no problem with them using "ring names" (Mr. Perfect spent most of his time, if not all of it, without using the "Hennig" name, I believe), or even changing the first name for trademark purposes or whatever; but the whole "I'm using my mother's maiden name" thing isn't really purposeful when his whole current shtick seems to be "I'm representing an actual lineage and you're just full of shit."

Also, Tyson Kidd is incredible. In the ring he is always fun to watch, and sometimes works three matches in one evening -- all of them better than most of the stuff around it. I had no clue he turned face, but when I saw him work as one recently, I was like "Holy shit -- this dude is fucking dynamite!"

I wouldn't want to see the feud become complicated or diluted, but I can't help but think that with Tyson Kidd's sometimes referenced sometimes not partnership with Justin Gabriel, it would be sort of awesome to see Heath Slater team up with McGillicutty to face Kidd and Slater's former partner. But I'm a huge fan of Heath Slater as well.

In fact, with the WWE sometimes pairing up Kofi Kingston & R-Truth, it'd also make perfect sense for Michael McGillicutty & David Otunga to reform the team they never officially broke up and face their former respective NXT Pros. Have McGillicutty & Otunga vs. Kofi & Truth on RAW and McGillicutty & Slater vs. Kidd & Gabriel on SmackDown!. Even have Otunga and Slater start hanging out again and not reform Nexus so to speak, but as asshole heels that kiss the boss' ass, they could be a pretty great little unit. Fuck it, give them Mason Ryan as muscle since he's not really doing anything and would work way better as a heel than a babyface while he's not quite ready to be a centre focus as his own character.

David Otunga, Michael McGillicutty, Heath Slater & Mason Ryan vs. R-Truth, Kofi Kingston, Justin Gabriel & Tyson Kidd wouldn't set the world on fire, but it'd be a pretty decent opener for a PPV somewhere.

Pretty much. It's weird. The guys who are "competing" still are still around and sometimes the competition gets mentioned as a joke but I don't know if they even plan on ever finishing up the actual competition portion.

That was pretty awesome. That finish was pretty slick. Makes perfect sense for Kidd to get the win there and this not to be over due to McGillicutty being a heel. I was impressed by McGillicutty's work in the hype video, too.

These two need more time to tell a story together. This feud must continue.

Agreed about TK's finisher. Needs a name, and to happen a lot. Pity the announcers didn't call Joe lackidasically going for the Perfect Plex, but that's only a minor blemish on how awesome Regal is in the booth, so it gets a pass.

I agree with Regal about "rivalry". I felt the same way watching Kofi/Ziggler matches. When guys click like that in matches, they need some on again/off again program and for people like the announce team to put over their "history".

Also, Henning*.
But yeah, I don't understand the whole concept of "half-kayfabe" in the last few years. We know Mr. Perfect is his dad, and they acknowledge as much, BUT he still gets a shitty name change. He might not be "perfect", but he can still be a damn Henning*. Yet, the DiBiasies keep their names. Inconsistent.





*Don't forget the asterisk, lest you want 8 more posts about how you spelt it wrong!

Great match. Honestly starting to think of Kidd as possibly one of the best in-ring guys right now. Possibly better than Punk/Bryan etc. The guy is just incredible in the ring and is always busting out new stuff, without being ridiculously over-the-top high flying etc.

Michael McGuillicutty has really improved a lot over time as well. Didn't think too much of him back in the NXT/Nexus days.

I wonder if the WWE will ever give Kidd a legit upper mid card spot, like Benoit. Dude doesn't need to talk much. Or like Bryan.

I watch this show every week because of the day and time it's on. If you love Regal, you have to watch him bury Hawkins and Reks on commentary every week. Especially Reks. It's pretty funny. Reks fought Percy Watson last week and I was cracking up the entire time.

He's pretty bad on the mic unfortunately. McGillicutty has carried this feud in terms of hyping the matches, which is something I wouldn't have said 6 months ago.

I dont mind his mic work, if they keep his stuff to a Bret/Benoit style promo he comes off well,i just dont think he gets enough time to work on it. McGillicutty is the goods though.

The new guys sound so hollow on the mic though. There used to be so much more soul in promos. Hennig was okay on the mic from what I saw, but he just sounds like an angry kid trying to be a wrestler, not a scary self assured badass like those of the old days. There is nothing about what he does that differentiates him from the pack. Though his new found aggression and intensity in the ring is pretty incredible. There is purpose to his movements. It as a very well worked match, and they both came across as legit veterans.

Nothing he does on the mic* which differentiates him from the pack. He needs his own style. His wrestling style is verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry good and much improved and I look forward to more from him.

FTR I've totally stolen Tyson Kidd's submission move. Tried it at training today, very easy to pull off, looks fantastic and seriously doesn't hurt anyone. Pretty awesome looking move. Thanks TK.

You really can't fault the guy on that. All you can really do at this point is talk with a funny accent or an annoying lisp to "differentiate themselves." They're all getting fed their lines, with very few exceptions (see Punk, CM; H, Triple; Rock, The; Taker, Under). It's one thing if they were given bullet points and told to proceed from there. That way it would at least feel natural.

Only other thing I can suggest, which is even least likely in this environment is to bring back serious managers who CAN talk.

It's a been good but tbh I believe they have better matches in them yet to come and while Double M has improved on the mic he's a still a little too over the top at times for my liking.

Liked their match and feud on NXT although Kidd did have another decent and possibly overlooked feud when he faced Yoshi Tatsu as well last year.

Really liked that counter Kidd did when McGillicutty used the Sharpshooter on him.

Looks like. ^_^

I like the fact he doesn't "have" to fucking yell. It's not so much "monotone" as it's subdued, but still sounds like he's into the matches he calls... like he gives a fuck about what's going on in the ring and not making stupid jokes to one another half the match time (like the "main" announce teams) or promoting the main event of the evening or talking about other shit that happened at the top of the show during the entire telecast (TNA)

I wouldn't say it was overlooked. I mean, as much as a feud on NXT can not be overlooked. I think one of their matches were voted as one of the best matches of the year by WWE.com.

'The Guycott Lock'

Might actually use this and bluff my way into telling people Tom Guycott is a legendary British wrestler from the 60's or something that used to use it.

My style is somewhat similar to old-school Brits like Robbie Brookside and Johnny Saint, so it wouldn't be too out-of-character for me, and I seriously doubt people will look into it.
