RIPPA Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Per Meltzer - due to the time the matches need, it will only be a 4 match show Riddle/Ohno will be taped before the show to air on TV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Damn it I know Triple H isn't a fan for these really long WWE shows but Takeover is definitely to the point where 3 hours is not too much. But given how long you really should give to the War Games match and probably Black vs Gargano even that might be not be enough. Riddle vs Ohno is definitely a match that can't really be done in 6 - 8 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see this year's around the same or even longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if they stagger the entrances like a normal War Games match, as opposed to last year’s team entrances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eivion Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Hope that means Shayna/Kairi actually gets more than 15 minutes. I figured aside from War Games the other long match would be Black/Gargano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Part of me hates this video. The idea that guys can "practice" in the War Games cell for lack of a better term seems wrong. Also there should be the idea that the Undisputed Era have the experience of being in the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I kinda wish they made Executioner's Tax the official song for the WarGames match. It's reusing a song, but that song fucking rocks and it's way fucking better than the song they're using this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Man, I'm going to have to re-watch last year's WarGames match tonight. I'm so fucking pumped up for it. I thought the match last year was awesome. Just ridiculously fun. I'm starting to think of who might be the Killian Dain of this year's match (Dain ate the key to the cage!), who is going to bleed hardway, what goofy ass thing KOR is going to do, what crazy ass thing is Ricochet going to do, etc. It's also crazy to think of where everyone from last year is now. Cole became the first North American champion, TUE are two time tag champs, the AOP are Raw tag champs, Roddy did the logical thing and joined TUE and is a tag champ, Fish blew out his knee and is just now making his return in one of the damnedest matches ever, and Sanity is dead in the water. I know we all got giddy over Sanity getting drafted to SDL, but can we just send all of them back down to NXT? They were fucking awesome there. I want a renewed storyline with them and Black, I want Dain vs Ricochet, hell, I want Dain vs Riddle or Lee in an NXT ring, I want tag matches between Sanity and the War Raiders. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbarrie Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Heck, can we just cancel the main roster and make NXT a lot bigger? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehabilitated Rick Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 expecting Ricochet to do some ridiculous shit like a double-moonsault off the cage. Wasn't there rumblings~! of making NXT a two-hour weekly show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I just hope Ricochet doesn't try for something insane like a 900 off the cage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Canadian Stampede is unlikely to be topped in sentimental value for me, but these TakeOver cards have gotten ridiculous. The opening match to this show is either going to be a 2/3 fall blowoff to a year-long rivalry or Gargano vs Black. Wow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that though there really isn't a good reason choose SS if you are actually into to both NXT and the main roster. War Games has better build and more potential great matches. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Predictions: Undisputed Era beat Dunne/Ricochet/War Raiders. Ciampa retains the NXT Championship versus Velveteen Dream. Gargano defeats Black. Baszler defends the NXT Women's Championship defeating Sane. Most difficult match to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfrey Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Sane/Baszler is indeed tough to call. 'Winner get the title, loser gets called up' is harshest stip in the company but I think Shayna's the one who can swim a little better so I think Kairi should win here and they can keep the Horsewomen feud going by having Shayna go after Becky for Ronda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
