    And it's been good buildup from what I've seen.

    Whitmer has always been a solid hand and he's mega over as a heel. Last ROH show I was at, he literally couldn't talk for over five minutes because the fans were booing him so much.

    Whitmer being a great heel doesn't excuse the fact that Steve Corino is co-headlining a major wrestling PPV in 2016.

    Corino barely had enough credibility to headline PPV's in 2000.

    I honestly don't know what to say

    There's like 20 different ridiculous things to comment on that happen in the span of just under 2 minutes. Where do you begin

    the best part of that hardy video is matt hardy trying to roll under the ropes and like...slamming his face and the papers into them? but they clearly didn't want to bother with more than one take so they just left it in because fuck it

    Does anyone know (or care) why Matt keeps referring to Jeff as "Brother Nero"?

    Here's the big secret:

    Anyone can be in a major ppv match. As long as the company does a good job selling it and the fans feel a connection to them.

    Actually you can play any Jontron reaction to that Matt/Jeff video and it would fit.

    Jeff Hardy looks like someone painted one of those QR codes on his face. Like if you pause him just right you can whip out your phone and be taken to a website.

    Here is the thing...I so want Becky Lynch merch....but there is something that rubs me the wrong way about wearing a shirt that says Lass Kicker when presenting as male.

    I'm so confused by everything in this video.

    (I didn't even watch the Hardy one, but I'd probably have a similar reaction.)

    But why fucking Corino of all people?!?! Couldn't they have picked an actual full time worker to get more out of the whole thing?

    There is just so much going on in the Hardy clip. It's hard to unpack it all by my favorite part is probably the fake baby.

    the best part of that tna clip is matt hardy inexplicably forgetting how to roll out of a ring

    a close second is that they're trying to have this big dramatic confrontation in an empty warehouse

    Everything about that TNA video is great.

    The slow-motion and dramatic music at the end really sells the entire scene.

    NXT tonight sounds interesting
    I really think Ciampa and Gargano should be added to the tag title Takeover match since they beat Revival and get beat down by them afterwards

    Also since there are only 4 matches so far for Takeover maybe we get one or two CC showcases?

    So wait is this thing in a steel cage? From what little I've seen of this "feud" I don't think these 2 performers warrant it. Then again 50% of their promos have been "hey remember when we were in that ladder match in WWE? That was awesome wasn't it?"
