Shush they are wonderfulThe "best breakout" award is acting as a warning of how bad the next year of NXT is going to be.
arena seems a bit empty, is that normal 45mins before the show starts? :/
Ah. Didn't know that. ThanksPre show isn't live, they are currently taping NXT tv in the arena.
Yeah, Twitch chat is exactly what a wrestling show needs. That would turn out splendidly.
It's a little harsh, but quite frankly he's probably gonna have a more successful and long career in WWE post-retirement than he ever would have as a wrestler.
NXT feels like a dead product. The brand split killed any momentum it had.

I think HHH himself admitted (I cannot remember where, maybe on the conference call), that they spread themselves too thin; having NXT worldwide tours ahead of the event. That means they could not give the storylines the work they needed to make them great in the last few weeks before Takeover.
Personally I think NXT has a good chance to improve between now and Mania. Roode is not going up anytime soon, so they can build a program around him. They have Chris Hero, who can do great stuff. Nakamura should go up, but if they keep him there for a few more months wherever they position him can lead to a great feud/match. Eric Young has it in him to pull out a great match when needed. DIY are fantastic, and if they decide to break them up Ciampa v Gargano could be one of the best things in all of wrestling for 2017. Roderick Strong is one of best guys on the roster, they just need to give him something interesting to do - he feels like "just a guy" right now. They have Itami and Aries coming back from injury. Both can do great things. Even Almas, who has been abit of a letdown in NXT, has a chance to do great stuff if they let him. I think his character is great now, but they need to not limit his moveset. Also, I still believe they have access to many of the Cruiserweights. There are amazing wrestlers in there - who are underutilized on RAW/205.
I do admit the Women's roster lacks in terms of quality. At the very least Asuka/Ember Moon has a chance to be great if they start to build to that. Kay/Royce are an amazing combo. They are not the best wrestlers, but they are getting there. There characters/friendships is amazing to watch. Crazy Mary Dobson / Sarah Bridges is a good wrestler too, but yet to put in actual work on the show.
I think NXT will be okay. Tonight might not be great, but they have more than enough quality in their ranks to build to a great show down the line.
I'm at the venue, this feels like a taping.

He means they are actually doing a taping before the show starts. They did a dark match and one match already.
Honestly wouldnt be surprised if the Fatal 4 Way was just Asuka and Cross murdering Peyton and Billie.
Wrestling Werewolf sorta kindathe fuck at Ember's eyes, is she supposed to be a vampire?
Yup. She seems way too normal and nice for her gimmick.Ember Moon is entirely too normal. She needs a character overhaul.
the fuck at Ember's eyes, is she supposed to be a vampire?
They've also got some homegrown talent. The women's division should start shaping back up this year.They've got several women waiting in the wings including Heidi Lovelace and Kimber Lee joining recently and Evie and Nixon Newell coming in on April.
Lol yep.Jesus Ember Moon's mind just broke lol
lol the red contact lenses. I wish ember moon would cut some goofy vampire promos with those, otherwise it just looks dumb and distracting as fuck.
This was all pre-taped earlier. I don't get why they didn't just reshoot it. Not enough time maybe?Ember clearly just had producers barking in her ear telling her not to predict anybody was going to beat Asuka. My guess is the Aussies are going to walk away with it.
