Renee is always a good start.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice facility. Wonder how much Vince pocketed from the good people of Florida to build there.
ReplyDelete5 minutes in and we already have two pre packaged promos that is trying to sell us on the WWE brand, basically.
ReplyDeletelol that nash is there.
ReplyDelete"i can't get a real sense of these guys. can we do this in an airport?"
Third meaningless video. Yay.
ReplyDeleteAs well as some snappy Kevin Nash.
ReplyDeleteAnyone having streaming issues?
ReplyDeleteMy iphone wont work and my computer at work wont either. It is also a piece of shit so that could be a reason.
Working OK for me on Chrome w/Windows 7 laptop.
ReplyDeleteVideo packages aside, that was a pretty good Rollins promo...
ReplyDeleteNow it works on my iphone
ReplyDeleteWorking fine for me on the PS4.
ReplyDeleteWorking fine on my Roku.
ReplyDeleteSo is this a PPV type card where Zayn vs. Cesaro could get 20 minutes? Or is this a regular episode with commercials and "big" matches?
ReplyDeleteBret and Nash would make an amazing announce team. Bret the straight man to Nash's, well... Nash.
ReplyDeleteBret also likes the Wyatt's because their beards remind him of Neidhart.
ReplyDeleteLove the Shield arguing over the type of animal the Wyatt mask is.
ReplyDeleteI'm in. Looks like they severely oversold the show though probably about 100+ people with tickets posed off outside because they ran out of seats.
ReplyDeleteI'll be watching the 11 PM replay.
ReplyDeleteNot sure, but I think it's 2 hours anyway with only 3 announced matches, so Zayn/Cesaro could definitely get time.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm hoping they brought Nash, Hart, and Heyman there for legitimate purposes. To fly them in a pay them for this 100% kayfabe pre-show seems like kind of a waste.
ReplyDeleteIdiot being interviewed by Heyman wants a selfie first.
ReplyDeleteThey're perfect for this kind of show, treating it like a sport and whatnot.
ReplyDeleteI hope so. Not only because of the potential quality involved, but also because I really hate when 2/3 Falls matches go less than 15 minutes.
ReplyDelete"NxT is the future, whoo.." Ugh.
ReplyDeleteI was waiting for Tyler Breeze to come out.
ReplyDeletePaul Heyman is way too valuable to be used to interview the crowd. But he's doing a damn fine job of it.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of damn fine, back to you, Renee...
LOVE Nash's checked blazer too.
ReplyDeleteLike anyone is watching for something other than Zayn/Cesaro.
ReplyDeleteWell it's not 2 out of 3 falls but I doubt it gets less than 20 minutes.
ReplyDeleteso... people in the crowd just said that they're there for the product and not anyone in particular.
ReplyDeletesound like a familiar booking philosophy...?
Paige?
ReplyDeleteI agree. I bought it with their last one though, because they sold it as Zayn got the first fall immediately in a fluke, and Cesaro got the second fall essentially because Zayn tapped so he would be able to have a chance for the third fall (whereas he probably doesn't tap in a one fall match).
ReplyDeleteThe ladder match should be good. In fact, so should the women's match.
ReplyDeleteGood video packages tonight
ReplyDeleteAre you sure? My understanding is it is.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, they just built that NXT women's championship match better than the Royal Rumble.
ReplyDeleteI don't think they know any of the matches.
ReplyDeleteTrue story.
ReplyDelete'Will have to face Ric Flair's 7' tall daughter Charlotte...'
ReplyDeletei'll amend my stance to say that emma is attractive as long as she doesn't move her mouth or anything. once she smiles or talks or makes facial expressions, she starts to look funky
ReplyDeleteNattie sounds like she's 70.
ReplyDeleteLast match was 2 out of 3 falls. I don't think they've ever said this inner is as well.
ReplyDeleteHer "character" is a bit off. Maybe she's trying to be a quirky Zooey Daschenel type?
ReplyDeleteHaha,I found a link to watch the ppv.
ReplyDeleteDark match starting. Sylvester LeFort vs Mason Ryan. Gah
ReplyDeleteWe also don't know who's going to win tonight, which is cool.
ReplyDeleteEmmaXT...cute.
ReplyDeleteBTW, if this was a different era, Nattie totally turns.
As much as I would like to watch this, the stream is already getting very rough on the pre-show, constantly buffering, but not giving up yet.
ReplyDeletenattie's gonna turn heel on emma, isn't she?
ReplyDeleteIf Dusty still has the pencil, yes.
ReplyDeleteI know it was, but I'm 100% positive I've read the rematch is also 2 out of 3 falls, but I don't recall exactly where so it's possible that it's not official, and whoever wrote that was mistaken. Wikipedia also lists it as 2 out of 3 falls, not sourced though so it could be someone mistakenly putting it (but wikipedia isn't where I read it, today was the first time I checked it).
ReplyDeleteWhat is Paige's accent?
ReplyDeletepaige's eyebrows should count as outside intereference
ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't happen to be in a First Row, would it.
ReplyDeleteCan someone explain who's the big babyface of NXT,and who's the Heel ?
ReplyDeleteSoutheast England.
ReplyDeleteIT'S DIALECT, OMFG IT'S DIALECT - DONT YOU KNOW ANYTHING
ReplyDelete/phreddy
I wonder if Nash and Bret are playing footsie under the table.
ReplyDeleteThat's the match I most want to see, but I'm looking forward to all of the announced matches, actually.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe they started to insult each other.
ReplyDeleteBret wouldn't know.
ReplyDeletehbk is under the table fellating them both
ReplyDeleteBo Dallas is the heel champion. I'm not sure there's really one single top babyface. Adrian Neville has been booked as his main opponent lately, Sami Zayn is probably the most ever face.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
ReplyDeletei will always think of corey graves as good ol' SJK here in the steel city.
ReplyDeleteglad to be able to say i saw him (and zima/shiima) before he hit the big time. he was definitely a standout in terms of his presence
I'd bet anything Dusty came up with the name ArRIVAL.
ReplyDeleteAlso, oddly enough, Cesaro is a top heel on NXT. Odd because he's been there as much as the actual NXT guys, even though he's a main roster mainstay.
ReplyDeletei know a link to watch all the ppv's
ReplyDeleteit's network.wwe.com
go away, bo. you're goofy looking and annoying
ReplyDeleteAscension will defend the titles against "mystery opponents".
ReplyDeleteNot available in my country.
ReplyDeleteIt really does suck that they couldn't get it available everywhere right away.
ReplyDeleteNew Age Outlaws are going to take those titles too. I'm sad.
ReplyDeleteThe funny thing is that was my very first thought too.
ReplyDeleteNash is gonna hate the main,two Vanilla migdets are fighting.
ReplyDeleteHaha, yepppp.
ReplyDeleteI guarantee Nash agreed to half-ass his way through a pre-show so HHH would pick up the tab when he goes out drinking afterwards.
ReplyDeleteCesaro/Zayn starting the show.
ReplyDeleteCesaro-Zayn opening the show makes Witlon very happy.
ReplyDeleteSomeone needs to do a character that's straight out of the Guy Ritchie flicks (we'll just ignore Swept Away here) and cut all his promos in Cockney slang.
ReplyDeleteInsert shitty quad tear joke...
ReplyDeleteKnee and quads will meet hell.
ReplyDeleteHe probably tore it sitting at the booth.
ReplyDeleteThis preshow is way better than what WWE does. Kinda feels like a UFC preshow.
ReplyDeleteI don't want spoilers, so just a yes or no is fine, but has NXT already taped shows past here? i.e., are the winners of the title matches already known?
ReplyDeletei wonder how many people will log out after the opening match
ReplyDeleteEarthquake!!!
ReplyDeleteI was considering it until they gave the awesome build to Paige-Emma. I kinda wanna see that match now.
ReplyDelete
