Jeff Venom Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I'd have preferred Ciampa's Road back to the top culminating in a Mania weekend win vs Cole and then some kind of turn by Gargano further down the line.For me it feels a bit unsatisfactory at this point. Jordan Devlin had a wee pisstake with it. I'm as confused as the rest of you by the new DIY rivalry. Why? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Venom Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Balor was tremendous. Jeezo he was so neutered on the main roster. Looked an animal in that match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... got to a point where I wasn't biting the near falls. I mean, they were great matches. But it was meaningless by about match four. Oddly, the opening match was the least guilty. It had nearfalls but protected the finishers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Took a wee while for me to work through it, but another typically solid NXT show, bordering on really good. But jeeeeeezo, those false finishes got tedious. I can kind of see them in the main event, I'd say they'd be almost excusable there. But there was one about 15 minutes into the show in the opening match, wasn't there? Think I remember a tope rope finisher that looked brutal just being kicked out of, which set the tone for the rest of the show. Reached the nadir in the main event, far too many to be believable. It's a shame too, because a properly done false finish is one of the best things in wrestling. It's really easy to ruin them though by just firing in a million of them to try and create tension. Surely it's not that hard to build up a match like Cole vs Ciampa towards, say, a couple of big false finishes before the true end? Also on the negative side (although it depends how it plays out) the big finish. Gargano turning heel looks like a crazy decision at this point. He's just not very good at it, particularly when he's opposite someone who made an absolutely incredible heel. Think Brian Zane put it that HHH is absolutely set on giving this storyline the natural conclusion it was robbed of, but this just feels like another third act twist just for the sake of it. It'll no doubt make a great match at the end of it all, but still, seems needless. I don't think those take away from the overall quality though. Lee/Deejackvic was very good, and I really got into the Nox/Kai match. They really made the most of their time (aside from the meh finish). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they have that much left to offer that we haven't seen. Unless it's going to be a plunder match. Which I'm 100% on board with if so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His promo didn't seem very face like but I guess being attacked by half of Imperium turns you by default. And obviously the fact that it's in Dublin helps... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEMSFC Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Thought it would have been Balor Vs Cole at TakeOver, but looks like it will be Balor Vs Walter, most likely in Dublin.Who faces Cole then? Dream? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Charlotte vs Bianca was decent enough. Can't see where Bianca Belair goes from here after losing clean in convincing fashion to champ and challenger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I think they'll have Balor work heel and WALTER tweener in the build up, knowing full well how the actual show will go. It really doesn't matter who the heel or face is in the build up. It's like Punk/Cena in 2011. Punk was the heel, but no c**t was fooled at how that PPV would go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieStevenson Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Gargano and Ciampa just got to have a big scrap all over the performance center. Don't care for seeing this again but that was cool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
