The time for a new NXT belt was the day after they debuted the NXT belt. It looks horrible and even Lucha Underground fixed their belt quickly and that's with far less of a budget than WWE has to work with.

Agreed. Also Lucha Underground doesn't have the big nautical compass belt anymore?

This might just be the best news ever.

Boots, if you haven't seen it, you should dig up Super J Cup 2004 and check out Marufuji vs Kasai. It's easy to forget Crazy Monkey can actually wrestle. And it's weird to see two peoplep who have such completely different career projection.

I actually got that match recently in RudoReel's Super J bluray set, but haven't got around to watching any of it yet though;

It's easy to rag on wwe for,shitty shirts but pro wrestling tees is like another level of shit

 

[Kaladin]

I like the NXT belt. The Big gold X.

 

[Data West]

Also nothing in wrestling makes me wince as hard as dudes landing on their feet from the top rope. Not razorboards, not cement blocks, not barbwire, not getting dropped on your neck. Every time I see dude land on his feet, my knees start screaming.

I'm thankful that most Jun Kasai matches aren't offered in HD.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Even without his recklessness, he's just really boring to watch. Yujiro's on par with YOSHI-HASHI to me and even then, I like YOSHI more. I mean, obviously he's not actively bad, there's just nothing remarkable about his matches.

This is YOSHI-HASHI's break out year. He's going to thwap people with his staff.

 

[British Monsoon]

Bruce Tharpe-des is in magical form on the New Beginning show, even if he is a total asshole for beating up announcer Shibata-san!

So many wrestlers putting out shirts with zero regard to what any sane person would possibly wear.

 

[DMczaf]

Triple H, your job is not done until I see NXT War Games.

And also 4 motherfuckers beating up Dusty Rhodes.

Why? Guys have been landing on their feet to save a top rope failure or do a double stomp for a while now. Nothing wrong with it.

They did away with the belt FORGED FROM THE GOLD OF SEVEN AZTEC TRIBES when Cage ripped it up - although to be fair, they haven't debuted the new belt, so it may actually be worse, but that's nearly impossible unless they copy AAA, CMLL, or Lucha Libre USA's belt designs.

go ahead and send cesaro there too

I was going to post a gif of Sid Vicious destroying his leg, but I can't even force myself to look at it. One of the worst sports injury I've ever seen.

He's also been on fire on Twitter. Everyone should take notes on how to do it. Great stuff. Really enhances his storyline he's in.

 

[jmdajr]

I liked NXT when it was in the underground. Then they sold out and went all mainstream.

 

[Data West]

Because it destroys your knees.

 

[DMczaf]

And then after NXT tonight, we get the fallout at Smackdown After NXT!

All things must grow eventually. Hell even Vince got the hell out of NYC and never looked back.

 

[Sephzilla]

I like the NXT "big X" title belt. It's probably the best looking title belt WWE has right now that isn't named the Intercontinental Title

 

[DMczaf]

I hate the white IC belt. Alternate color IC belts were meant to be special, now it's just permawhite

yeah most people hate it but I think it's fine

 

[Sephzilla]

it worked with Cody because he usually had white in his color scheme during his IC title reign. It should be a black strap now though.

 

[RP912]

I'm indifferent with the NXT title...while it's a oversized looking ugly ass belt...it works I guess.

I guess I'm a sucker for smaller prestigious looking belts like the undisputed belt and the NWA belt.

 

[Data West]

FE,

Even the youg lions are in better shape than flabby Okada

 

[iMax]

Just saw some of Seth's Instagram messages. Some, uh..., choice quotes in there.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

What's the most recent Chris Hero pic? Wondering if he's still going for Mastiff's look. I actually really like it on him.

Tiny championship belts are gross

small belts look terrible on Vince's mastodon... that's also why Jericho and Mysterio should've never been champ

 

[slightconfuse]

I like to think the NXT belt was in,storage somewhere because it was going to be used in the XFL

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Honestly, they should just revert to the Attitude era design. The "classic" belt is highly overrated.

 

[Uno Venova]

Don't have strong feelings for the NXT belt, it's big, and not too busy, serves it's purpose. Maybe once the brand gets bigger they can get something better.

 

[JPeeples83]

The classic IC Title design is fantastic, but the Attitude and beyond IC is fine, but inferior.

Bronson, what was going through your mind when you shot this?

NXT belt is ugly as fuck

IC belt looks awesome just needs that F

every belt look good on HHH because he's a real champion

Does the Sid gif replay in your head?

 

[avengers23]

Found Hero's next championship belt:

The glorious eagle!

(Competitive eating is a work.)

 

[rrc1594]

Leather Jacket HHH is best HHH

 

[JPeeples83]

Whoever told Doc the all-white painted head with black and pink everything was a good look for him was very very very very bad friend.

 

[jmdajr]

HHH knows how to...

play the game

 

[Sephzilla]

Man, I forgot how fucking boring looking the Attitude Era IC belt was. It's sad that the Winged Eagle belt got retired for a similarly boring ass looking title as well.

Isn't that denim?
