Peck Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Since Regal doesn't reward people for bullying each other in to title shots, does Kross lay out Regal in retaliation to "earn" his shot and end Regal's tenure as Commissioner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Io/Tegan vs. Kai/Candice was good. Dug Kai's promo later in the night. Rhea getting in the way right after was neat. The lack of Raquel was disappointing. Hopefully she comes back soon as i was hoping to see her in action against Io & Rhea during this feud. I didn't really pay attention to Strong/Gargano. Was nice to see Reed get vid to build up his participation in the ladder match. Lee's promo was good. Loved seeing him pissed and running through Grimes. Shozi/Mercedes was nice while it lasted. Really hope Mercedes/Io is something they are building to in the new few months. Not sure what to think about UE destroying Imperium. Swerve/Atlas was fun. The triple threat was surprisingly solid-good. Like easily the best match Lumis has been involved in since he debuted in NXT. That said, it feels weird to see thatcher lose to Lumis. So far its looking like they are using this ladder match to build up some of the lesser guys on NXT which I don't dislike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) So there's two guys in NXT who came from TNA, have a gimmick where they're a creepy serial killer type of guy, use a sleeper as a finish, but they're totally different because one likes art and the other has a girlfriend? Also why would you spend years collecting all the biggest stars and best wrestlers on the indie circuit, and then decide to push Samuel Shaw instead?

turk128 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Kai and Shirai worked really well together. Absolutely loved Gargano/Strong, Strong was a beast. Scott/Atlas was really good. Good storytellin in the triple threat. Really interested in how they will handle the ladder match now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
