I love how dated the black and yellow look is, it comes straight out of the 80's.

And where those two patting each others backs? Are the both Canadian or something> Has WWE gone all let the best man win on me?

As always, thank you for the gifs, J-Ru.

The "Powerbomb countered into a sunset flip sitout powerbomb" is my favorite move, and I can't see enough of it. I know Goldust pulled one off a few weeks back (and it was probably even giffed) and that poo poo was cool too, but this was shot REALLY well.

I don't watch wrestling anymore (not since the Corporate ministry was a thing) but I do like these gifs and having a general understanding of the current kayfabe, so this back slapping stuff would be an interesting indication of a new direction of WWE.

So what is NXT's USP within the WWE stable? Smackdown is\was the family friendly show and Raw was the more OTT and hardcore show as I remember it.

NXT is the WWE's farm for Indy Darlings and Up and Comers. Kayfabe wise, it's meta as hell. WWE guys show up and sometimes act outside their heel/face affiliations, sometimes not.

Zayin and Cesaro have some indy history together, hence the hug.

The hug was more the culmination of the story line about Zayin wanting to earn Cesaro's respect than their indie history. It's the Rocky ending, he didn't win, but he went the distance and showed everyone he could, winning the respect of his previously dismissive opponent.

That's part of it, but the whole angle was Cesaro being unstoppable in NXT until Zayne got a "fluke" win on him. Then they had the 2/3 falls match that Cesaro won. After that, Cesaro was dismissive of Zayne and said Zayne didn't even deserve to have another match with him, would ignore Zayne in interviews, etc. So, even though Cesaro won the match at Arrival, Zayne earned Cesaro's respect. (That's the gist of it. Somebody who watched NXT more before the network could probably expand on it)

It's pretty reliant on upper body and core strength. I wonder if Paige would modify it into her Mum's submission if she had to sell her upper body getting worked over.
