Sublime Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I guess WWE just wanted some of the live crowd to get a similar experience to those watching on the network. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidKash202 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I will eventually get to it but I am hearing Cesaro/Zayn was on the level of the other classic. True/False? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 It ws fucking great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Was it better than the 2nd match that is considered a match of the year contender? Man that is going to be a hell of an argument on these boards. Tonight match was just so much more physical than the 2 out of 3 falls match. Those uppercuts were absolutely brutal.

cubbymark Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Paige's submission looked a bit like Blue Panther's nudo lagunero in the end position. While Panther's setup is having the opponent in a standing position, Paige twisting from the bottom was nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man Known as Dan Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Re-watching it now: This is the best Zayn/Cesaro match. I'd even argue it's not particularly close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I still think the 2 out of 3 falls was better, but the match tonight is a MOTY for sure. Already near the top, for me personally. Only match I've liked better was Shield/Wyatts at Elimination Chamber. Paige/Emma was fantastic. The women are easily my favorite part of NXT, my only complaint.... WE WANT BAYLEY.

JonnyLaw Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Is NXT a weekly show on every Thursday now? According to the ad that ran after Arrival, yep. Every Thursday at 9pm. #ThursdayNightWars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Is NXT a weekly show on every Thursday now? Yes. It's still going to air on Hulu too, I believe. Just not Arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man Known as Dan Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I legitimately am curious if the Emmabomb was better then any Batista Bomb ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggulator Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I think I liked the 2 out of 3 falls more but that's just because I like the gimmick better. But man, that match tonight was insanely great. Was it better than Cesaro/Cena? I think it might have been. Wyatts/Shield is still my MOTY. That would have been my 2013 MOTY, too. But we're off to a really great start.I think I'd take Cesaro over Bryan right now. Cesaro has had epic matches with Sami Zayn, Regan and Cena all in the span of two months. All three of those matches were so incredibly different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Between Tyler Breeze and Aidan English, NXT clearly has the market cornered on great entrances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Honestly, that Rusev beatdown was pretty great. They are really cleaning up what needed to be worked on with him in terms of attire. The new theme is fantastic too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubbymark Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Cesaro's counter to Zayn's tornado DDT through the ropes with the uppercut was absolutely insane. That whole match was fantastic. Too Cool was a pleasant surprise. Watching Victoria/Lisa Marie Varon do the Worm setup at her restaurant along with Scotty Too Hotty is one of the damnedest things I have ever seen. The stream at her place held out until the Rusev segment, but thank goodness came back for the main event. Attendance wasn't very much but those there were enthusiastic about it.

DreamBroken Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Loved Paige/Emma. Fantastic video packages on both building it up greatly.. Awesome match from the top two divas. Not really caring for Mojo Rawley at all. Cesaro/Zayn picked up a good bit towards the end, Cesaro looked especially great. Ladder match was good stuff too, thought both guys were real good in it. Also Too Cool was a nice little surprise to add in. What's the word on Becky Lynch/Rebecca Knox? Has she debuted yet? James She's worked a few of the live events but I don't think she's debuted on NXT TV yet. She's going to be an excellent addition, her and Paige were already fantastic together when she managed in Shimmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I somehow allowed myself to forget that the worm takes, like, 30 seconds from start to finish. God I hate that more than maybe any thing in wrestling ever. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I love that this is going live on Thursday nights. TNA are so worried about taking the fight to Raw that they didn't even consider the real enemy hiding right next door.... Watching them get crushed by the WWE developmental show is going to be amazing in a horrible train crash kind of way. I think it's going back to it's old schedule (taping several episodes at once), just that it's "debuting" on the network next week. But it'll be the same thing that's on Hulu now.

Cristobal Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Went off to play some GTA for a bit when the feed cut out. Came back and I was able to go pretty quickly to where I left off in the replay. God damn that was a good night of wrestling. Even the bits that I didn't care for (the Rawley match, the tag match) weren't bothersome to me cuz they were still decent wrestling matches. Having watched this, if the Network were nothing but NXT content, I'd still consider ponying up the $10/month for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my version of hell, the only wrestling match available on the WWE Network is Too Cool vs. The New Age Outlaws 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
