OSJ Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 This show is going to be epic, it takes a lot to get me excited about a WWE product, but this will do, this will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 So I guess we aren't going to lock this during the show. While I am glad we are seeing the teacher in Finn Balor vs the student Jordan Devlin right now, someone needs to explain to me why everyone in beating up Travis Banks in the back. Gallus destroyed him and now Jordan Devlin destroyed him. He hasn't even had a strong showing on the TV shows to justify this. Not sure why I didn't notice before but having the camera bounce every time Dave Mastiff jumps is a hell of a nice touch Jazzy Gabert and Kay Lee Ray added to the women's division. Great additions Yeah Toni winning back the title is bullshit to me. The future is definitely on Ripley for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 WALTER getting his original entrance music (or damn near close to it) makes it even more awesome. Dunne vs Coffey was pretty good but way too long for me and way way too many kicking out of finishers. I mean even Pete Dunne's finisher was extremely protective and that was not the case today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodear Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Just now, Edwin said: Don't think so. Had she gotten heat over that, they would have most likely had her delete it. Plus she put out all the tweets about taking pleasure in Tegan Nox's injury so that's obviously within her character to be a jerk face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was really pleased with that too. I know Dvořák has been dead for over a century—so no rights issues—and Bryan got a Wagner remix, but you never know.

Guest Edwin Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I thought the tag title and UK title matches were the best matches on the show. The rest was OK, but nothing mind blowing. I like Toni, but her matches feel repetitive after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The future is definitely on Ripley for me Haven't seen the show yet, but this isn't too surprising. Ripley only won the belt to build her rep off of what happened with Tegan initially. Who knows when Tegan returns, and Ripley herself is technically a part of regular NXT/PC. Don't think she had even done shows in the UK before the the title tournament. Wouldn't shock me if she is top female heel for regular NXT post Shayna. Also Toni wa snever champ. Rhea was the first and only champ before now.
