NXT Thread *SPOILERS*

Didn't realise the contract worked like MitB. Meant they didn't the obvious route

Yeah, the promos are crap and she can't really wrestle well but otherwise, she's great.

This new nxt hasn't grown on me yet

Some of the new guys/girls in it are fairly meh

Ciampa really looks his age now comapred others on the roster and seriously needs to think about moving up to the main roster

He might be Keith Lee's new manager but at least he might get to keep his name unlike what was planned for Adam Cole as us viewers might of thought Adam was Michael Coles son

Gargano might be happy in his spot. His wife works there, very little travel it seems, he must be an good money at this stage and clearly could go into a backstage role inside the company.

It's a lot of security to give up to try your chances in AEW or where ever.

They're reeeeally leaning into Mandy's sex appeal. It'll do nothing for ratings but bless them for trying.

interesting to see Bron jobbed out clean in the middle of the ring.. Joe Gacy is an obnoxious character but the mindset in how the lads behinds the scenes think of modern “liberals” is fascinating and gives an indication of the mentality of Vince and his goon. A guy comes out and says “we have a bunch of sexy women who are all dressed up for your entertainment” and is in interrupted by Gacy scolding the sexualising the female roster and he’s the heel. This show delivers every week in complete nonsense and it’s glorious

I sort of had the opposite thoughts. I expected nearly every title to change for this reboot. Felt like they wanted to get rid of the last vestiges of the old NXT, even expected the main title to change but glad it didn't. I haven't been keeping up on 2.0 though so who knows.

It was a decent show but it also gave me no interest in checking the show out weekly like I used to. There was so much crammed in and I don't like the presentation of it. I hope some of these people are being moved up to the main roster but given they just did a draft I'm guessing that won't happen. The matches were pretty solid overall but nothing on the level they used to be save for maybe the men's tag match.

I assume that promo was a pre-tape. As a big Chucky fan I'm glad corporate synergy allowed him to appear.

I assumed they would wait until the next takeover which is usually Survivor Series weekend, but checking now and doesn't seem to be a Takeover scheduled anytime soon

That is a very strange reaction.

Dangerous spot, sure but Io literally rotated to take the bump perfectly. Can you argue that it's a dumb and unnecessary spot, probably but you eliminate a lot of great wrestling spots by that logic. As for them all being green, the only person involved in the spot was Indi and her job was just there to make the ladder fall slower to give Io time to bump properly which she did if you watch the full clip. I mean if there was one critique of her it's that she left go off the ladder after Io left a bit early and it nearly followed her out of the ring but it didn't so kind of a moot point.

I don't know where the AEW bit comes in but I'll bite. The issue people had with that was that Lance Archer was injured and they let it continue so he could be rolled up instead of just calling the match. Io took this bump and was never involved again and the match quickly ended after. Had something gone wrong the match wouldn't have needed her anyway and she would have been able to seek immediate medical attention regardless. If anything that's good producing and good looking out in the event she had been injured.

Also, this is the spot you should pick if you're gonna whinge and play what-about...

Just catch him. It happens so often where wrestlers are just like "Nah, not my job."

Get in a pile, catch him. I'm not a wrestler but it's easy.

Luckily it was a move like that where they could more easily control the landing. If it was a suplex, they'd be screwed

Wouldn't be surprised if the guy doing the cutter is hurt. You can see right at the end, that doesn't look like "selling pain" more like "My fùcking back..."

She seems grand...
