    Holy shit

    Jinder Mahal equals ratings

    It was up 7% from last week and was still the 3rd lowest of the year, not that big a deal

    But everyone was expecting another slaughter thanks to Lebron

    It might be just a one week boost but still

    I could never understand the lyrics in Asuka's theme.

    But they're actually pretty awesome.

    Good amount of time to properly set up the insane barn-burner that will be Gargano v Ciampa. Maybe even get some big stakes on it.

    I know we give Lesnar shit now and rightfully so, but man this Lesnar/Cena match from SUmmerslam 2014 was something very special.

    It doesn't need big stakes, unless you want to put the first match of the feud on NXT TV.

    Allegedly Ciampa and Gargano will be on the main roster this year so maybe their Takeover match will be one in done.

    Guys, guys. I've finally got the chance to sit down and watch BoSJ night 1.
    I just sat through a bunch of absolute bullshit to get to this Taichi vs TAKA match and all I can say is
    Seven stars. MOTM. It was almost everything I hoped for.

    NXT tapes a good chunk of TV tomorrow so that should give us an idea of what's in store for Summerslam.

    Also, we have no idea if that dude can talk at all. If he's on the main roster he can't just be all stiff kicks and remarkably smooth transitions to the lotus position.

    If there's anyone I'd say "fuck it, just call 'em up now" to, it's Ruby Riot. I can't remember the last time someone showed up in NXT who already seemed to have all of the pieces put together, especially among the women.

    Taichi raising the referee's hand at the end of the match was just perfect. I love him so much, give him all the belts!

    I'm going to be pissed if Kairi Hojo isn't allowed to do her top rope elbow drop when Bayley and Patrick Clarke can.

    Clarke's looked nice though.

    the main roster is where good tag teams go to die.

    They have to figure out a better way of doing these post-Takeover NXTs. Use these matches to develop lower-card storylines that couldn't quite make the Takeover card or something. This half-recap, half-nonsense thing has to stop.

    Keep all good wrestlers in NXT

    It's not a "move up" to the main roster if you get Sami Zayned

    Unless they start paying everyone in NXT like the main roster, no.

    Yeah, this is the first time I've tried to actually watch NXT proper in a while and boy is this just not doing anything for me. Did they actually expand upon the DIY stuff? I left to get a drink during the recap and came back and it was over.

    There's always a chance a wrestler can eventually overcome bad booking and writing.

    Nothing that wasn't already on the website: they're not saying anything about how hurt Gargano might be because he's too heartbroken to speak to anyone. Which is amazing.

    I watcged for Aleister Black, watched a couple recaps to see if they added anything (not much) and now I am done until next week.
