TheGoon Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Of you do one thing today, make sure it’s watching Takeover, the main event especially. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeArab Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Black v Cole match of the night for me. Really enjoyed that tonight. Rumble will not eclipse that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 EC3...fucking hell. NXT is stacked after the latest batch of signings. EC3, Galloway, Cole, ReDRagon, Sanity, Ricochet, War Machine, Dunne, Bate, Black, Gargano, Strong, Velveteen Dream, Almas. The worry is that there's so many talented, talented guys there that someone, somewhere is going to not get the run their talent deserves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Thought the main event was probably the best match in NXT to date. Just unreal action and it sucked me into it big time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 Main event was sublime! I was suckered in a number of times where I was sure it was over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 (edited) Back to back brilliant matches at the end. Great show, not fussed for Ohno or Dream though. Ciampa vs Gargano will be the best thing on WrestleMania weekend for sure. Huge match. Edited January 28, 2018 by JamieStevenson 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Tremendous show. Black vs Cole was the highlight for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Agree with all of the above. To add Percy Watson was v decent for once last night. Stepped up well in the absence of Big Nige instead of just interjecting with pointless garbage. Aye there’s a lot to be said for a commentator who is so behind someone like he was with Gargano in the main event. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also liked Dream being so absolutely sure of himself while also being tough as nails. Too easy to turn that into a pure comedy character which no doubt will happen when he goes to the main roster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kujabi_Kujabyou Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 What a fantastic PPV best one from Nxt so far. I love watching Gargano wrestle he reminds me of Shawn Michaels a lot. Cole vs Black was insane, what a match and the back breaker on to two chairs upright looked sore af. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Just finished watching. Sublime stuff. Tag match was alright although felt the teams just didn't mesh. Women's match was ok. I like Moon in the ring but her character is just too cheesy. Dream vs Ohno was good. Some amusing moments. Loved at the start when he thought he'd knocked Ohno out, only for Ohno to relive a huge forearm and a big boot. Black vs Cole was brilliant. Both are just quality. However, the main event was incredible. I was marking out big time and totally bought in to the false finishes. Absolutely love Gargano. He took some beating mind. Fair play to Almas as well. Thought he was done last year as he seemed to be drifting, but since he's got Vega he's totally turned it around and shown just good he is. As said further up, probably the best NXT match there's been (AOP vs DIY vs Revival runs it close for me). Johnny Wrestling is an absolute star. Is there a better babyface in WWE? I don't think so. Like how they got us at the end as well with the old credits trick. Also EC3! Great signing! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Gargano's selling is absolutely incredible. He's a potential star. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Venom Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Can't really add much to what has already been said. NXT go nuclear on a major WWE event weekend. Gargano is the absolute boy, and I'm glad Almas was able to end that incredible match pretty cleanly while still getting Ciampa in there at the end. I was exhausted by the end of that. Guessing it'll be Black for Almas next, but what do they do with Cole? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 The only negative was that the main event was so good that it made you forget about the very good matches leading up to it. I thought they were going to go with Gargano winning and Ciampa coming back for a title feud, but I reluctantly agree that they did the best thing. This way they can get a face Black in for the title feud, but agree that I'm not sure where Cole goes from here. But Gargano...fucking hell that guy can sell. They really had me going at several points during that match with the near falls, and it was a suitable way to end it with Almas trying to kill him via ring-post. I really can't stress how good I think the Gargano/Ciampa feud is going to be. I'll say now that it's likely to be one of - if not the - best match Wrestlemania weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire crowd was yelling at Ciampa with visceral hatred. Gargano is the closest superstar they've got to Daniel Bryan circa 2014.

cb_diamond Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Gargano vs Almas gets the big 5 stars from da Meltz. Only the sixth WWE match to get it ever and the 1st since 2011! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
