Also god damn the NXT roster right now is fukking crazy

Undisputed Era, Finn Balor, Keith Lee, Dijak, Riddle, Gargano, Ciampa, Dream, Garza, Swerve, Dunne, Walter, Kushida, Bate, Gallagher, Lio, Trevor Lee, Lorcan and Burch, ACH, Ringkampf guys, Io, Rhea, Bianca, Shayna, and whatever randoms they want to have pop in from the main roster or UK.


Somehow it's a better PWG roster than AEW has with Excalibur and the Bucks heading things up.

1) Might have to check NXT out live or watch a recorded stream from the web instead of Hulu because Hulu is clearly cutting some matches out.

When I watched earlier today, they had Binky v. Rhea, Kai/Knox v. Duke/Shaffir, Riddle v. Grimes, and Lee v Dijakovic v Strong.

Didn't get to see the Swervango match or Garza v. Gallagher until later on YouTube. Feel bad for the Forgotten Sons.

Swerve is black excellence. Speaking of black excellence, Drake Younger is almost offensively tan. That man is TAN tan.

The week before l, I didn't see what ever the did with Grimes. I DO agree that it'd be dope to see him take up the Wyatt Family mantle. He could be "Cousin" Cameron and just

2) Dijakovic and Lee are fukking :wow:

Every time I see them, I find myself involuntarily going "No. fukkin wa-GETthefukkoutta he-Nonono-Oohh shyt!" aloud. :whoa: :damn::mindblown:

Roddy held it down, but I'd expect nothing less from him or anyone else in UE in this capacity.

3) On Bianca Belair: She gets better every time we see her and she's finding her groove. She's going to be a great babyface champ whenever they eventually pull the trigger. I get the vibe that they're going to have her eat babyface L's and give her a rub because she's essentially a Full Sail homer.



Regal said Dream is gone for a “long time” I’m assuming he failed wellness again. With Balor being heel too it means a new baby face has to step forward. We’ll see

Word on the webs is that Dream is legitimately hurt. Lumbar pain according to Alvarez and the NXT injury report, but people are skeptical as to whether that's kayfabe or not, so who knows...

Ya'll need to be DVRing AEW and watching NXT live or do like me and not watch AEW at all. :mjgrin:

Or just watch the replay at 10. That's why it's there. :heh:

I basically watch both AEW and NXT back to back on Thursdays lol. Those plus NWA Power basically give me all the variety in wrestling I need, and I check for certain Impact and NJPW matches whenever i read about them.

Balor kicked the shyt out of Gargano with the Pele kick :mjlol: Never seen him hit it anywhere close to as clean or as stiff in an actual match.

I just got around to watching this but it was a great show. I don't want to sit here and compare but I felt this was the first time NXT showed some urgency and everything looked great and delivered.

They have an embarrassment of riches down there in NXT.. the roster is stacked. shyt, even the women's division is stacked.

I like the team of Dakota and Tegan a lot so I'm looking forward to them battling Asuka and Kairi. That's 4 cute af women that can go :whew:

The triple threat main was great.

The Finn Balor turn was exceptional and needed. I laughed my ass off at that dropkick outside that sent Gargano into the stands. shyt was hilarious we need a neg gif of that one :mjlol:
