Shiiiit

Let NXT be a developmental for once, man. It's fun that way, regardless of ratings and such. Really, if they manage to season guys like Bron Breakker, Carmelo Hayes, Tony D'Angelo, Cora Jade and LdF (this one is 100% ready tbh) for the main roster, they are already doing a wayyyyyyyy better job than SKULL AND CROSSBONES BASEMENT NXT.

John Cena as the Peacemaker honestly smokes everything The Rock has ever done, in terms of acting. However Dwayne is probably one of the biggest box office names around. The profit for those Jumanji movies is disgusting.

The idea of pushing Toxic Attraction is goodt, but selling them (and the show, by extension) as the highlight of some T&A trash is absolutely not good. It's a shame because 2.0 is being really enjoyable, but its advertising is lacking.

Most NXT success stories are of people who never really needed it that much. Bianca Belair might be their biggest name, but she seemed ready from the get-go. Bron is also a similar case. He's so good, he almost seems above NXT.

Yeah. I mean, they even gave THE DIRTY DOGS a title run. Why not a more competent tag team? Everyone else in the roster already had their chance... Gotta say, tho: their finisher is some EVIL shit. It always looks disgusting and I love it.

Given how Aliyah was removed from the Survivor Series team with no explanation and Sonya was the one to nonchalantly give the news, they seem to be leaning into it. Also, when is Alpha Academy getting something to do? Otis has fucked around for quite a while without getting a meaningful push, and crowds like him and Gable enough to believe they could be credible champs. Specially that they are planting the seeds of dissension between RKBro.

MJF is mostly a miss IMO. I get why people like him, but to me he's basically 2006 Miz, but worse in his edginess. Most other acts are good to great, with emphasis on Kingston, Miro, TayJay (let Tay speak more Portuguese and less Spanish) and Britt. It's a very well-rounded roster, I'd say!

And KO is a big snek

HAHAHAHAH AALIYAH GETTING THE WIN OVER NATTIE LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Shotzi step on my neck

Woods vs Reigns? Sign me up.

That is a dangerous, dangerous mindset.

I am overall enjoying the build of the feuds (even Inner Circle vs ATT despite some dumb moments), but one thing is putting me off so much. You guys know I stan Tay Conti, but it is honestly baffling to me that she speaks Spanish in some of her promos. Not that her Spanish is bad or anything, but... I wish she would speak her native Brazilian Portuguese. It saddens me a tad because it is very rare to see a Brazilian person making it to the big leagues, and then she (or whoever is writing the show) would rather speak a different language (that has other representatives).

Eddie Kingston is awesome. Watched basically zero of his stuff prior to 2021 AEW - only one AWESOME promo he cut in NWA a while ago -, yet he immediatly captivated me by just being a really cool dude. The fact that he keeps it real all the time is icing on the cake. Punk cheating to beat him would be ok, if only as a way to make them work more against each other, but I'd prefer if he just won.

I live for the backstage drama

I was thinking the same thing, to be honest. Give us a DQ finish, then. Dunne shouldn't lose and Carmelo even less so.

Julius Creed has a sweet, sweeeeeet gutwrench powerbomb. Those two are GREAT in the ring, man. Actually, NXT was pretty damn good yesterday. Sure, there was nearly no Bron Breakker, but the six woman tag, Saree vs KLR and the main event were very damn good. Carmelo Hayes is so damn good already, and Trick is on his way to becoming one of the company's best promos. Looking forward to Tony vs Dexter next week.

HHH would just become H (not that one) in today's renaming economy

WALTER looks like he's lost some weight. Getting into that main roster shape, it seems. Good that we are back to having those house show recordings, man. There are so many little gems that get lost due to lack of tape. I remember some years ago Goldust and Braun were having super fun matches, and you could sense Dustin was having a blast working with a bigger dude, since he was doing sommersaults and what not.

She was just the best. Hate not being able to use so many characters but anyway

She was just great, man

It's awful because it's like 8 hours every week. Waaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too fucking much even if it was aces.

Oh my God

Look, it's better than nothing. I take Aaliyah getting featured over NATTIE. Where the fuck is Toni Storm? Also, Lince becoming the coolest wrestler on the planet is not something people antecipated
