Dolfan in NYC Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Ricochet, DIY, and Black all tried their fucking best, but the worst crowd in maybe a decade was having none of it. Fuck them. 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Yeah, everybody pissed about Ruby should be pretty happy with that. Stiff and snug work all around and definitely not a squash.

Overly Critical Man Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Ronda doing lots of cool transitions into submissions is a whole lot more impressive than just her squashing someone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 This would have been a brutal show without #DIY, Ricochet, and Black. While I enjoyed them being on the show and they were the only reason I watched, I wish something would be done with EC3, Heavy Machinery, Lacey Evans, and Nikki Cross. They've been given absolutely nothing. It was nice to see Ruby Riott get some shine back after last night. I'd have the Riott Squad show up on Smackdown and attack Asuka to set up Asuka vs. Ruby. WWE creative isn't going to come up with anything better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the matches were bad but those debuts (if they were actually debuts and not just one-offs) were completely heatless. They still aren't doing much of anything with Heavy Machinery, Lacy, EC3, and Nikki but at least they got a couple weeks worth of previews to at least hype up their characters a bit.

hammerva Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I said on PWO board that it felt like the ECW invasion of RAW in 1997. Just something to put on to fill some time while they actually figure out what most of Wrestlemania should be. And if it helps the other brand that's just extra gravy. Although even that got more buildup than tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck them. Cole's shitty commentary didn't help either. I enjoyed the DIY/Revival match and then...oh it was non-title? RAW can go fuck itself. Oh and they make Ricochet CUT A PROMO? "I'm from Kentucky. I'm just some dude." FUCK YOU Vince. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagan Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Gotta assume it's a one-off as the DIY story is still headed towards its Lord of the Ring-esque (in scope and length) conclusion though honestly there is no reason guys shouldn't be shuffled in and out of these brands. At this point there's no reason to have church and state separation between the NXT brands and the main roster. Have guys do both as needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 MORELOCK should be happy. They let Black debut with his awesome entrance. And then struggle mightily against Elias’ dreaded chinlock. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Don't know what to make of this show. The crowd definitely SUCKED. But the debuts of NXT stars out of fucking nowhere might not have been the best idea in front of people who have clearly never watched NXT. All night was Who? WHO?! They tried their best.
