Ronda got announced for Total Divas this season so she's still around. I imagine she comes back sometime this year when the season airs.

NXT UK Takeover in 20 min, they just showed Cesaro and he's gonna have an open challenge. Should be good no matter who gets in there with him.

Watching the pre-show because I don't know any of the matches on this besides Walter/Bate, I hate when they force the announcers to say the FULL name of the event every time.

Like...you don't have to brand it, we're already watching it. Aiden English says "NXT UK: Takeover: Cardiff" every time he talks about the event

I hate when they do it on regular NXT as well when they force guys to work "At NXT: Takeover: War Games" into promos instead of just "at Takeover" or "at War Games".

Also I'm pretty sure Nigel is a coke head. Dude could not stop licking his lips/teeth/gums the entire pre-show

, he was also literally bouncing in his seat for the entirety of this week's 205 Live and was so excitable the other announcers were like wtf are you ok dude on air

Mostly didn't pay attention to the UK show, seemed like Mastif/Coffey really beat the shit out of each other, but Walter/Bate was great. Hard to believe Bate is only 21. If he were a couple of inches taller

Bryan Alvarez: WWE to break some big news next week, said to be on par with the NXT TV deal.

“I don’t know what the news is. I know that something happened within WWE yesterday that the people that do know what it is were expecting the word to get out yesterday but it didn’t. The feeling is that it will get out probably sometime next week. I don’t know what it is. I know that the people that know feel like it’s a very big story so we’ll have to wait. It’s very similar to the NXT to USA story in the sense that, I heard about the news in the morning and I expected the news to be out by the end of the day and it wasn’t so we waited until the news broke. Something absolutely happened and we’re gonna know about it soon enough and that’s literally all I can tell you about it. But people there do believe that it’s a big story.”

The end of UK Takeover sure seemed like a curtain call for British Strong Style. They've all been destroyed by Walter, and Dunne had already been moved to NXT, so I wonder if the whole group will be moved over for the move to TV.

LAX predictably were the masked men who attacked the Bucks and Luchas after the tag match.

As these shows go on, I keep getting more and more of a WCW/TNA vibe and I dunno if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

AEW spent a lot of bullets on this PPV. Almost feels like they're spent already before being on weekly TV.

AEW ain't it, bois. 4 underwhelming shows in a row ain't rookie mistakes. They clearly see it as live action EWR and have done a very poor job of building storylines and characters and are offering nothing that isn't being done better somewhere else:

Sports presentation wrestling: NJPW
Athletic spot focused super indie: NXT
Garbage deathmatch shit: BJW, GGW
Women's wrestling: WWE, all joshi promotions
General Sports Entertainmenting: WWE, TNA

Stro · « **Reply #8339 on:** September 01, 2019, 07:43:11 PM »

The only real character/story they have going right now is that Kenny would rather be wrestling in Japan instead of his own company
