Eivion Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Borne/Conti was ok. Honestly it feels like Borne was cheated a bit not gettign the spot. On the other hand she has been on tv semi-normally the past few months. This is the first time I have seen Keith Lee wrestle and I certainly didn't hate it. Nothing noteworthy match wise, but they did a decent job building and moving all of the stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I'm guessing that finding him unconscious in the parking lot means Aleister won't be at Takeover: Brooklyn and this is the way to move him from the match. His injury sounds rough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peck Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 That EC3/Dream poolside segment was A+ in it's campiness. Hilarious stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Mann Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Can we please just skip to the part where Keith Lee gets shit on by the crowd and finds himself as a heel? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggulator Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Yeah that Dream/EC3 segment was the best. Dream freaking out in 3 feet of water was great. A funny callback to his tantrum after he ended up wearing water after harassing Tyler Bate a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Z Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Been waiting for this debut for the last 18 months, this is not quite how I imagined it to go down. I hope he doesn't get turned into one of those guys like Aichner and Mendoza, who only get to show up every few months or so only to make someone else look good.

MonteCarl Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 This was my first time ever seeing Keith Lee. Dude oozes charisma. Very cool finisher, too. Never saw a fireman's carry into a powerslam. They did give the German guy too much offense, but Keith came off as a major star in this match. He could really go places on the main roster if they let him.

You don't really need to start worrying until he get's his new name. If he's still doing it then, he's in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought they had bigger plans for him, because they didn't use him as a JTTS right away like the other guys I mentioned. There's even a guy posting right after me, saying he got TOO MUCH offense, *sigh*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, even if they don't do much with Marcel on the main brand, gotta think he would be a main guy for NXT Europe. Of course it would be nice if they did something with him before then.

Coletti Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Also, look at Danny Butch's NXT career. Granted, he had to leave and come back but dude definitely didn't come in with a rocket on his back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turk128 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Was this a throwback 80s episode? Probably one of my favorite episode of NXT too. Are all the jobbers already signed? Cause I hope they are. For just 2 years experience, Nova seem relaxed in ring. Ohno match was all kindsa fun. Really dig Adrian "Judo" Jaoude. EC3/Velveteen was like an 80s music video. Absolutely love Keith Lee/Marcel Barthel. The match was a blast and both guys looked great. Barthel's build is deceptive; he comes off like Alex Wright but wrestles great as a powerhouse.

hammerva Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I assume that the pool area was with small notice because I would assume the Dream''s experience would be a lot more purple. Plus it is kind of confusing that this is his place and he doesn't know how deep his own pool is Marcel Bethel is what Alex Wright's Berlyn character was supposed to be without the goofy WCW bullshit around it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
