I wanted Asuka to win, but this just made Ember look like a chump.

 

[GiantBombGamer]

They gotta be waiting for Kairi to come beat Asuka. Which I'm fine with. Another good match!

One can only hope.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Ember did get a bit buried. She hit the Eclipse and still lost.

 

[NastyBook]

Get subbed, loser!

 

[serenewarfare]

Holy shit Ember is done.


She tapped wow


Not even a passout.

Nonsense. Tapping is not a bad move. Main roster WWE has taught people that idiotically. Top guys in NJPW tap out too.

 

[TimeEffect]

Ember is going to be fine

Asuka really has become S Tier

They really made her special

 

[half a moon]

OH FUCK, the rumor for tomorrow is still in play!

What's the rumor?

 

[The Strokes]

Best match Asuka has had in NXT. Best match Ember has had in NXT. Fantastic. This show is amazing so far.

Guess the rumor of

Spoiler

Asuka going up tomorrow and winning a main roster title and the MYC being for the NXT title

is still on the table.

Holy shit please make this a thing and make it the SD title.

 

[geomon]

2 4 star matches and 2 3 1/2 star matches. What a PPV

 

[Bronx-Man]

Ember looks like a joke and Asuka's dull fucking reign continues. Fuck off

 

[Draxal]

Nonsense. Tapping is not a bad move. Main roster WWE has taught people that idiotically. Top guys in NJPW tap out too.

Eclipse was unprotected, hit a nasty superkick and it was like lol nope.

 

[Ithil]

I'm sure they originally planned for Ember to win when they planned out this feud, but even though she's a great wrestler she's just not ready to be a top face.

 

[gun_haver]

just tuned in cos i thought this was going to be the main event and it's the only match i wanted to see

oops.

 

[Wagram]

Asuka does Rock tier selling. This match reminded me of Rock v. Austin at WM19 on many levels.

 

[Angry Grimace]

There is literally nowhere to go with Asuka other than promoted to main roster undefeated at this point.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Nonsense. Tapping is not a bad move. Main roster WWE has taught people that idiotically. Top guys in NJPW tap out too.

Sure and sometimes they don't.

Ishii didn't just last week.

A passout finish after an Eclipse kickout was needed here.

 

[RyougaSaotome]

Tonight has been a fucking winner. Again.

Pls, Vince. Just give Trips the keys to the kingdom.

 

[Rockandrollclown]

Give Ember a complete character overhaul and she's going to be something amazing.

 

[NastyBook]

Asuka sold the shit out of that Stunner and Super Kick. Thought she died after the latter.

 

[serenewarfare]

Lol at anyone saying Ember comes out of that looking bad. No one looks bad after a match like that. No one.

I don't think we are getting Kairi vs. Asuka. I think Asuka is just gonna come up and drop it.

 

[geomon]

Ember is getting called up.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Congrats on Ember carrying to Asuka to who second good match in NXT that didn't involve gimmicks. Wrong person won and The Eclipse should have been protected.

 

[JehutyRunner]

Ember's totally going up, isn't she?

 

[Beefy]

Will Ember get all depressed again? Then do the weird promos like walking out into a open stadium?

 

[TimeEffect]

Eclipse was unprotected, hit a nasty superkick and it was like lol nope.

As good as Ember is, Asuka deserves an even better opponent

In no way will she be hurt by fhe match, especially as its an NXT match

 

[DMczaf]

Clean finish and both wrasslers get put over

Trips doin it right

 

[The Strokes]

People think every finisher should be treated like the owa.

She hit the Eclipse, Asuka kicked out of it, the only wrestler in the entire WWE that would probably do it.

 

[ramoisdead]

Ember is gonna be alright.

 

[Xion385]

Please don't show Adam Cole before the main event... I hope he runs in.

 

[shwimpy]

why is she getting the extra rub?

 

[Angry Grimace]

As good as Ember is, Asuka deserves an even better opponent

In no way will she be hurt by fhe match, especially as its an NXT match

Becky and Charlotte are available.

 

[ReiGun]

The moon never outshines the sun, brehs.

 

[Gurrry]

ember call up?!

 

[Future Foundation]

What's the rumor?

Asuka defends, comes to Summerslam tomorrow and wins one of the Women's titles.

 

[SDBurton]

Best match Asuka has had in NXT. Best match Ember has had in NXT. Fantastic. This show is amazing so far.

Guess the rumor of

Spoiler

Asuka going up tomorrow and winning a main roster title and the MYC being for the NXT title

is still on the table.

Oh man if this is true I'll lose it. lol

 

[LiQuid!]

Clean finish and both wrasslers get put over

Trips doin it right

At least this crowd went from booing her and giving her nothing during the match to at least a respectful send off.

 

[daemissary]

Give Ember a complete character overhaul and she's going to be something amazing.

What if she came out to EDM with like neon lights and stuff?

 

[Phoenixazure]

why is she getting the extra rub?

Probably getting called up instead of Asuka

 

[Ithil]

why is she getting the extra rub?

Because she's a babyface who lost the feud. It's to save her some face.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Damn, that party got crazy towards the end, almost leapt outta my seat at the eclipse and following kick out.

Ember will be fine, she still comes out strong by taking it to the undefeated champ.
Also a great use of kicking out of a protected finisher.

 

[Draxal]

Sure and sometimes they don't.

Ishii didn't just last week.

A passout finish after an Eclipse kickout was needed here.

Ayup, if you were going to have an Eclipse kickout you need that.

 

[Professor Beef]

It's ok Ember, I'll never stop believing

 

[serenewarfare]

Asuka kicking out of the Eclipse is fine. Asuka is so goddamn strongly built that logically she would kick out of even the strongest finish.

 

[OriginofHysteria]

Thank you Ember? Is she going up? Lol

 

[blackaroni]

The moon never outshines the sun, brehs.

She's such an asshole. It's great.


Ember getting called up? Good for her.

 

[rrc1594]

Becky and Charlotte are available.

If we don't get Asuka Vs. Charlotte at WM I'm going to riot.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Announcers fucked up btw not selling that Ember's Eclipse wasn't as impactful because of her arm injury. That would have protected the move a bit more and sold the story of the match a bit more.

Great selling on the arm though all match from Ember

 

[DMczaf]

It's ok Ember, I'll never stop believing

You will at WrassleGAFMania




*points at sign*

 

[ratcliffja]

Asuka's Goldberg-topping streak should be emphasized.

 

[Adree]

Congrats on Ember carrying to Asuka to who second good match in NXT that didn't involve gimmicks. Wrong person won and The Eclipse should have been protected.

I do agree that they should have protected the Eclipse better since they were trying to tell the story that she couldn't do her moves right with a bad wing.
