[Man God]

I feel bad for Itami.

 

[cr0w]

Apparently I picked a good first NXT event to watch.

I'm in the same boat.

Sure wish I could mute this crowd, but that's my only complaint.

 

[ScribbleD]

I don't think there was a bad NXT special.

Truth. There's either great Takeovers, or phenomenal ones.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Nakamura needs to do some squats.

Fill out those pants.

 

[Ravager61]

This is so damn good. All I keep thinking is how shit the main roster stuff is compared to this. Literally every aspect. Booking, build, camera work, commentary, characters. Fucking everything.

 

[Brinbe]

Doesn't look like he's toned it down at all.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Goddamn, Shinsuke's got the best knees in the business.

 

[Rellik]

How can one enjoy Wrestlemania after this?

 

[robotrock]

This is so damn good. All I keep thinking is how shit the main roster stuff is compared to this. Literally every aspect. Booking, build, camera work, commentary, characters. Fucking everything.

Yeah the camera work is seriously top notch.

 

[slightconfuse]

He did it

 

[KingBroly]

Interesting to see Nakamura work as a heel.

 

[Fox318]

Jesus christ that knee

 

[Hidden One]

I feel bad for Itami.

Yeah lol.

 

[dragonflys545]

That move so good.

 

[shanafan]

Was Nakamura's theme uploaded to YouTube earlier today? Trying to find it..

I refer you to the thread title.

 

[Couleurs]

oh no, don't try to make Swagsuke a thing

 

[CATDAFELIX]

:O

 

[shwimpy]

get hammered.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

King of Knees.

 

[Mengetsu]

How can one enjoy Wrestlemania after this?

We just try.

 

[Brinbe]

Daaaaamn

 

[MassiveNights]

Ooft, Sami getting hit hard.

 

[daemissary]

Shaky cam is really pissing me off. His stiff strikes are only impressive if you can actually see how stuff they are.

 

[Coldnoodle]

BOTCH

 

[Archaix]

How can one enjoy Wrestlemania after this?

I'd much rather watch a great movie, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy the hell out of The Room from time to time.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

Man, Nakamura really makes it looks like it hurts bad.

 

[Lum1n3s]

Was Nakamura's theme uploaded to YouTube earlier today? Trying to find it..

His practice video was but that's being taking down like asap.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

How can one enjoy Wrestlemania after this?

Wrestlemania is promising a man getting chopped in half by a chainsaw and another man jumping off of something really tall.

You gotta realize, we all love the carnival.

 

[ScribbleD]

Doesn't look like he's toned it down at all.

I worry that he'll have to eventually just because of WWE's non-stop schedule. That type of super physical style is likely going to result in injuries if he's wrestling 300 days of a week.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

This is so damn good. All I keep thinking is how shit the main roster stuff is compared to this. Literally every aspect. Booking, build, camera work, commentary, characters. Fucking everything.

That's what happens when you keep Dunn and Vince away from the product and let HHH and his crew run it.

 

[BFIB]

Yeah the camera work is seriously top notch.

If this were Dunn, we'd have missed all of Nakamuras strikes with his zoom button.

 

[def sim]

dang it kinda looks like they're hitting each other for real sometimes

 

[Angelcurio]

Is it just me or is the WWE Network lagging a lot? I have never had this problem before on any PPV or takeover event.

 

[shingi70]

Dang I'm glad I decided to jump back into wrestling with this.

Good shit.

 

[KingBroly]

Man, that was closer than it probably should've been

 

[Ferny]

dang it kinda looks like they're hitting each other for real sometimes

Strong style

 

[MassiveNights]

dang it kinda looks like they're hitting each other for real sometimes

They kinda are with this style

 

[Jimmy King]

dang it kinda looks like they're hitting each other for real sometimes

STRONG STYLE

 

[Anth0ny]

Fuck right on his head

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

They're going at it.

 

[Aiii]

That mid-suplex knee. Brilliant.

That's what differentiates guys like Sami and Nakamura from home-grown WWE talent.

 

[luchadork]

OMG

 

[Bluekaveli]

How can one enjoy Wrestlemania after this?

One doesn't enjoy Mania. We just watch it with no emotions.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

Oh fuck

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Is it just me or is the WWE Network lagging a lot? I have never had this problem before on any PPV or takeover event.

Running great for me. Has been crystal clear all night.

 

[Toki767]

dang it kinda looks like they're hitting each other for real sometimes

That's kind of what strong style is. Working stiff, but safe.

 

[Shadow780]

That looks legit bad

 

[Couleurs]

RIP Nakamura's neck

 

[Brinbe]

Is this real life!? WHAT THE FUCK, A NJPW MATCH BROKE OUT
