Prince!!!

 

[slightconfuse]

Mike Bennett?

 

[Beefy]

That ref's tan is beyond a joke.

That has to be the result of some sort of rib, right?

He's more orange then Trump

 

[Foggy]

Velveeta Dream?

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Fun match but I think it's a huge huge step back from the last PPV where she had to cheat to win. We're back to Asuka wins lol.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Seriously. Get Asuka on the main roster. She's doing more harm than good for the division at this point.

I really agree. She's more then ready to move up and by destroying all the women over and over again she's doing more harm then good right now.

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

Hey look Metro Boomin is coming to nxt

 

[Data West]

nxts womens roster went from its most notable thing to a device to get over a 35 year old wrestler who isnt a big enough draw for the main event roster to want her while completely burning any sense of competition in the division

 

[Xion385]

Purple Rain!

 

[Wagram]

I don't really blame the finish on any of them. It required such precision timing, but at least Riot kicked out to make it more believable. Either way though, that match was pretty much best case scenario after the UK title.

 

[Hex]

Someone really should feel dirty about that Velveteen horse shit.
If the blatant Prince bit is not enough to shame you, the fact that it has been tried multiple times in the past should.

 

[serenewarfare]

Tag match the main event?

Heel turn incoming.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Man that finish just sucked.

I would agree to be honest. But the actual result was right. Asuka couldn't realistically lose.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Tag match main eventing?!

 

[Nocturnowl]

Velveteen Dream...
That name sounds like something out of a fancy chocolate selection box.

 

[Rhaknar]

Wait what happened to the ladder match?

 

[Keyser Soze]

They are giving the ladder match Main Event?

 

[Guzim]

Whoa. The tag match is main eventing.

 

[deli2000]

Asuka's booking is killing the NXT womens division.

 

[Gurrry]

Buried. Ez.

 

[Auraela]

guessing ladder match gets cancelled i mean the show hasnt got long left

 

[Wagram]

Possible the tag match was just cut.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Uh, is the tag ladder match main eventing?

I'm guessing they didn't want the main events to be "CM PUNK" chants if so

 

[serenewarfare]

We're going off the air with either Ciampa or Gargano turning heel.

Book it.

 

[RecRoulette]

Well, DIY is killing themselves tonight in this match.

Edit: Why do people think the tag match is cut? NXT isn't on PPV, there's no time limit

 

[LiQuid!]

nxts womens roster went from its most notable thing to a device to get over a 35 year old wrestler who isnt a big enough draw for the main event roster to want her while completely burning any sense of competition in the division

Nobody in the division is even close to being ready to be champ. Ember's the best wrestler but can't talk her way out of a wet paper bag. The rest of the chicks are just botchfests or super green

 

[Syder]

They are giving the ladder match Main Event?

Whoa. The tag match is main eventing.

They finally get it. Tag matches are the best thing about NXT and have been for a while.

 

[Ithil]

guessing ladder match gets cancelled i mean the show hasnt got long left

45 minutes for one match?

 

[ANuclearError]

The show still has an hour left, no way is the Tag Title match cancelled.

 

[Data West]

asuka cant talk either my dude

 

[Rhaknar]

guessing ladder match gets cancelled i mean the show hasnt got long left

Its at least 40min left

 

[Foggy]

That was the first time Nikki has even lost a match in NXT, she's doing fine.

With the women's tournament coming so soon, I wouldn't be so sure. But we'll see.

Itami not even in the main event? Damn dawg, forever losing.

 

[HashtagLapsed]

Asuka is the Shao Kahn of the womens tournament and will put over the winner.

That finish was a fucking awful burial though.

 

[serenewarfare]

They own the Network. It always runs long.

 

[RyougaSaotome]

Yeah. I actually thought Asuka was early when she was about to go through the ropes, but then I think she got a little stuck there and that caused the delay.

 

[Pikma]

asuka cant talk either my dude

She doesn't need to

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I would agree to be honest. But the actual result was right. Asuka couldn't realistically lose.

Why not? If you want to build Asuka as an unbeatable Godqueen then a triple threat is the only way to have her realistically lose.

She doesn't need to

She's not produced a match as memorable as any of the 4 horsewomen did and there's been no story since she got the title.

 

[Beefy]

Tag match the main event?

Heel turn incoming.

Yep

 

[Auraela]

Its at least 40min left

match will probs start at half past after entrances lol atleast 20 min match not long for ladder really

 

[excelsiorlef]

I would agree to be honest. But the actual result was right. Asuka couldn't realistically lose.

Oh I agree.

I mean she could have lost the belt via Nikki beating Ruby. They obviously want to keep the belt though for Ember.

No problem with Asuka winning because of that. Pin Ruby fine but pinning Nikki too... and pinning them in such a shit sequence? Doesn't make Asuka look better... just makes Nikki and Ruby look like scrubs

 

[RecRoulette]

Obligatory

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

can't even get my boy the main event slot

 

[Nocturnowl]

Based Trips and his discovery of talent from...somewhere.

Oh I agree.

I mean she could have lost the belt via Nikki beating Ruby. They obviously want to keep the belt though for Ember.

No problem with Asuka winning. Pin Ruby fine but pinning Nikki too?

Just pretend Nikki was conked out cold by Ruby's move.

 

[The Strokes]

Please don't split DIY, please.

 

[slightconfuse]

Completely forgot about itami

 

[Zach]

I don't see a problem with superior Asuka crushing.

Hideooooo.

 

[Beefy]

Roode and the best entrance in NXT

 

[Data West]

She doesn't need to

asuka is a great wrestler
yet no one can name a single great match she's had in nxt. because being a good in-ring wrestler really doesnt matter that much and her reign has done nothing good for the promotion and will end unceremoniously to io shirai which wont be built up at all either other than 'oh shes another wrestler that got popular somewhere else so lets give it to her'

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

That scar looks rough

 

[excelsiorlef]

Just pretend Nikki was conked out cold by Ruby's move.

I think Ruby's move sucking was also part of the problem lol
