Tarheel Moneghetti Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I guess Dexter Lumis came out to help Dream in the main event? That makes me think Vince fired everyone in NXT except for about 12 people who were already on the show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. Tune in to find out in the weeks to come! He said something like "I'm excited to tell people the story of my journey" after the match. Also noticed they're not going with the name "LGB-DDT" for his finisher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They basically did everything except come right out and say it. The speech, the murals in the background.. I wonder how Daria Berenato would feel if they pushed Jake based on that?

Rev Ray Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I'm surprised they haven't given him the nickname Jake "Not that there's anything wrong with that" Atlas. Also in the "I'd like to think Vince is not evil enough to do this" but what are the odds Vince told a writer "Hey, remember that bit we did with Tim White committing suicide? Do you think we can reuse that now to lighten the mood with Drake?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turk128 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Jake "Don't ask, don't tell" Atlas Can't wait for Luchador Balor to reveal himself (using a voice box) as the mastermind behind the kidnappings. I'm really really digging how the tourney has become Drake Maverick's feast or famine story. Raquel Gonzalez seriously is great, so freakin fun to watch.

throughsilver Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Lumis is the best Heidenreich ever at the moment, with a bit of Truth Commission mixed in. But despite that description, I'm digging him a lot. Raquel working well as a monster. I'm glad she only got as far as one knee when she was selling damage. That's nice traditional booking. I forgot who Killer Kross was! I've not seen Impact in ages. I was trying to remember where I knew that mug when he beat up Ciampa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyLaw Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I’m digging the general sense of lawlessness and chaos in NXT right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
