Official NXT thread (new episodes every Thursday)

[zabardast]

Loved the ending to this weeks episode, Nakamura had me in stitches

Ciampa is also fast becoming one of my favorite workers and feel him and Gargano should win the titles at brooklyn

I wonder if Nakamura will give Joe his nose back. Check out Ciampa and Gargano's match at the cruiserweight tournament if you havent already, was awesome!

Maybe could trade his nose for the title, seems a fair deal

Loved their CWC match, while it may not be Match of the Year for a lot of people, easily top 3 for me for what i've seen this year

I know NXT hasn't been poppin' like it used to, but is anyone else excited about what's going on, and what's coming up?



Samoa Joe and Nakamura... that's one hell of a main event feud

Bobby Rooooooo being glorious

Gargano and Ciampa coming into their own personality wise, no longer looking like a couple of bland indy guys

Authors of Pain already looking like a better powerhouse team than The Ascension ever was

The Revival being awesome... Dash is good, but I've always been a big mark for Dawson

Asuka becoming more of a vicious tweener

Rest of the women's division looking promising... Ember Moon, Peyton Royce, and Billie Kay may not be the next Horsewomen but they got a lot of potential

Aries isn't the same guy from the ROH days but he's still a great arrogant heel

Hideo is back with the busaiku knee which makes Daniel Bryan's version look like chit... hopefully we'll get the OG GTS too

Hopefully Andrade Almas drops that Latino Buff Bagwell look and finds something better cuz I have no doubt about his ability

Murphy is another guy who I think will do great once he gets some momentum

TM61 is already fun to watch, once they get their characters going it's gonna be great

No Way Jose is not a bad fun crowd popper midcard guy, already miles ahead of Mojo

Gran Metalik and Lince Dorado will be fun to watch, altho I'm still a bit skeptical about lucha guys succeeding in NXT

If the rumor about signing Cedric is true... he never really stood out to me in ROH but he looked like a totally different beast on CWC, if he stays motivated like that he's gonna be amazing



And all the recent main roster call ups... there's a few I'm going to miss seeing on NXT (mainly Alexa's booty) but for the most part, NXT really added a lot by subtracting.

It's a new day yall, yes it is

I agree it's picking up again. It was getting a bit stale the first half of the year and was just relying on the Finn/Joe rivalry with nothing else of note.

[LurkoLantern]

Finally caught last week's episode.

NXT is back on the upswing, baby!

Billy Kay's in-ring outfit is streets ahead

[kronzino]

Mandy Rose.... holy sh*t! :O

[LurkoLantern]

Mandy Rose.... holy sh*t! :O

It is pretty cool seeing the Tough Enough kids appearing starting to appear on the show. Always thought the Egyptian guy should have won. Last week they gave Patrick Clarke a jobber debut

[Thai_Clinch]

yeah mandy rose is fine as ****. she's no alexa bliss but got damn i would do terrible things to both of them in the sack.

[zabardast]

Bump for NXT Takeover starting now

[KBBaron]

Mandy Rose.... holy sh*t! :O

she is 10/10

[SerpentHearted]

bump.

Great cruiserweight tag main event this week.

In for Mickie James return at the next Takeover special too

[Rexcalibr]

Predicting Mickie is going to be jobbing. I don't think it will be a full time return and she's coming back just for this match.

[wings_unhinged]

Yep... Mickie coming back to put over a new star.

I doubt the Authors of Pain are going to lose to the dancing happy black men next week.

[SerpentHearted]

Joe & Tye had a great match this week.
I think it's kind of remarkable that they're building Tye up by having him lose clean every week, but it's actually working.

[Deathstroke]

Mandy Rose.... holy sh*t! :O

She Adam Rose's squeeze?

[SpartacusNYC]

She Adam Rose's squeeze?

Negged.

[Deathstroke]

Negged.

I never seen her. She puts most w we women to shame. But I noticed last name Rose.

Placed on ignore list.

[Deathstroke]

Placed on ignore list.

I don't watch nxt despite my bread and butter was it's first champion.

[tnel00]

iomiom

[SerpentHearted]

4 way elimination #1 contenders match last week deserves some appreciation imo.

[SerpentHearted]

and holy fkn crap THIS match!

[Iesous23]

and holy fkn crap THIS match!

Ciampa and Gargano once again proving GOAT status, DIY and Revival are on another planet

[zabardast]

and holy fkn crap THIS match!

Agreed!

[SerpentHearted]

this was a good match.

[wings_unhinged]

I don't really care for DIY. Good wrestlers though.

[I3igAl]

Anyone noticed the drifter Elias Samson got pretty shredded recently?

[LurkoLantern]

Anyone noticed the drifter Elias Samson got pretty shredded recently?

It's time for him to move on to Smackdown or get released. He's been in NXT wayyyyy too long and there's nothing more they can teach him. He's kind of in "Solomon Crow" territory. Developed but under-used.

[LurkoLantern]

I thought there were 4 members of insanity?

Looking forward to TakeOver San Antonio. If Aska is moving on to Raw, it makes sense to strip her title by a fatal 4-way (prediction, Billy Kay pins the insanity chick)

[Thai_Clinch]

havent watched since the last takeover. i need to. im a huge fan of authors of pain w/ paul ellering. these guys need to be the most dominant tag team on the roster. huge potential in my eyes for that.
