Casey Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Let someone like Deonna Purrazzo or Mia Yim get built up for the WrestleMania weekend Takeover and challenge Shayna Baszler. Ideally, for me, it'd be Deonna, but I'm just ready for the Baszler stuff to be over in NXT. I don't get the opinions that say Belair & Baszler put on an incredible match, or whatever, but I'm also one of those that thinks Ricochet/Gargano was MOTN.

Ramo2653 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I liked the show as a whole with the Riddle/Ohno match being my least favorite since I've seen it a few times (even live once). My favorite match was Shayna/Belair I really liked how the match was laid out and I think Shayna's control segments have gotten way better since she's been in NXT. I love the whole deal with her, the nasty offense, the slight vulnerability from her hubris which gives opponents a slight chance but she's got her goon squad who are goofs but juuuust effective enough to give her the edge when it gets tough, so when she does lose, it feels really good. And I'm a fan of Belair but even I would agree she's not ready to be champ. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricR Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I like most TakeOver's and this was no different. I loved Riddle/Ohno, totally delivered everything I wanted to. The tag was awesome, and Hanson was a guy who was always underwhelming to me, but he's really put everything together the past year. He's better every time I see him. really dug Baszler/Belair too. The other two matches weren't always my thing but were executed well for their thing. I had a blast the whole show. https://segundacaida.blogspot.com/2019/01/nxt-takeover-phoenix-12619.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Waiiiiiit...So either Dream borrowed Montez's hat, Montez borrowed Dream's hat, or they both came wearing the same hat. I'm not sure which of those I want to be true, but all options are acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're making an important point and the only acceptable answer is both were wearing the same hat and there was an awkward moment when they crossed one another in the corridor and the ladies on Dream's arm needed to try really hard not to mention the elephant in the room. I repeat: Important point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm a fan of Belair but even I would agree she's not ready to be champ. I don't think there was a better wrestling moment from Takeover than when Belair didn't know where to go when she had Shayna down and the referee was bumped. It was a great moment where the less experienced wrestler is stymied and unable to make a decision when choosing either one would have been a better choice than freaking out until the run in. I loved how the focus lost felt organic and real. Belair failed attempts to break the second choke was also super duper. I would love to see Gargano just blow someone out in 5 minutes one time. Is there any time when he would not try for 'the good match'? I feel like he's been doing that for years straight. Stop screaming Mauro, you joke. You cannot put every single moment of the show over like its the greatest Nitro of all time. If everything is important, nothing is. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Triple H talking about the Vikings on the post show conference call was hilarious.
