Posted August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811115 Surprised there wasn't a thread for this already Blood Orange live performance was an awesome start to the show and got an already hyped up crowd even more pumped
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811116 Yeah if you are going to do a live performance it is much better to do it while showing the WWE opening promos. It gives it kind of a purpose. One of the reasons why nobody bitches about live music during entrances like in WM but always when it is just a concert to kill clock Man I can't believe how super over Gargano is. He might get the biggest pop of the night. Not sure if Almas should have won but damn what a great finish throwing a DIY shirt at Gargano to distract him
August 20, 20178 yr Author comment_5811117 Good opener by Gargano and Almas. Loved the finish with Vega throwing a Ciampa shirt at Gargano
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811118 Man, Johnny is good, and I'm glad to see Almas finally finding something that feels right for him. That Gargano Escape near fall was dope, and the finish worked too.
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811119 I think we can retire any talking points about Almas not working well in NXT. Also, Gargano has gone from a guy I was completely out on before he went to the E, to a guy I thought was a much better tag worker then singles guy, to just really fucking good.
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811120 I admit I popped for the Aussie girls trying to schmooze Daniel in the GM box.
August 20, 20178 yr Author comment_5811121 Figured Almas would win. He's finally getting over and they're pushing him hard. Gargano is the plucky underdog babyface who the crowd loves no matter what. The loss doesn't hurt him, the finish was really creative, and because the crowd likes Almas it didn't kill them
August 20, 20178 yr Author comment_5811123 Love Graves but a 4 man booth is tough. So far so good This match has been fun. AOP has improved so much. Creative spot with EY switching in before Dane entered the match officially
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811125 I was hoping for a tag team hoss battle, but I suppose it's more impressive visually to see AOP toss Eric around.
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811126 I was hoping that it would be like a live Freebird rule where they switch guys during the match but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case. The rumors of Dain going to the main roster are becoming a little bit clearer This is the best Wolfe has ever looked in NXT. But he kind of has to be
August 20, 20178 yr Author comment_5811128 Removing Dain in this match for EY fucking suuuucks. Nah, it was way better this way NEW CHAMPS!!!!!!!!!!!! That match was awesome. And it's the one I went into with the lowest expectations
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811129 Seriously in the poll of bat shit crazy women in wrestling history, Nikki Cross has to be in the top 5. seriously she is nuts taking that move That was a match I had no desire for and was really damn good
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811130 I like it. Sanity couldn't match them 2 on 2, but Sanity 4 on 2 doing everything in there power worked perfectly.
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811131 HOLY SHIT IT IS REDRAGON They had to put these guys together given how stacked the singles division is. They should be awesome together
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811132 Removing Dain in this match for EY fucking suuuucks. Nah, it was way better this way NEW CHAMPS!!!!!!!!!!!! That match was awesome. And it's the one I went into with the lowest expectations Can't argue. Credit to Wolfe with a great performance, and the match told a great crazy story.
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811137 Of course they have JR commentate the match with the Japanese guy in it.
August 20, 20178 yr comment_5811139 Just seeing Code Orange playing Black's entrance as crazy as possible and him just walking through them like he is all by himself make his gimmick so great My god we are 20 seconds in and this is incredible
