You are coming down with me, hand in unlovable hand.

And I hope you die.

I hope we both die.

Best PPV (or whatever) of the year. I don't think there was a bad match on the card.

Corbin and Joe was the worst of the bunch and even that was above most WWE PPV standards.

that match was a good match but i was so emotionally spent from bayley's win

Yeah and it just doesn't have the build that the other had. It was an excellent match and right guy won. Also ladder match finishes are always a little weird. I thought it was great but tonight will be remembered for the Womens match

Awesome show, I've been waiting for something to re-kindle my interest in wrestling since I can't put myself through watching 3 hour Raws anymore. The Bayley/Sasha postmatch made me feel warm and fuzzy. :3:

Match was good and I legitimately feared for the safety of both guys a few times. I only wish the match was a bit longer and that suplex onto the ladder would have been rad as poo poo but I understand why they don't want their wrestlers to die

Main event was kind of boring. I'm glad WWE doesn't let guys kill themselves with head drops any more, but since they don't they probably shouldn't do matches like this very often.

That said if this had been a main brand WWE show I'd have been delighted with how it blew away expectations, so I guess it's just the NXT effect of expecting everything to be incredible instead of merely good

Blah blah blah blah!!
For real that was one of the best WWE shows in a long drat time. The whole show had a real energy that WWE hasn't had in forever. It was a show that actually made me think Corbin might actually be somewhat ok at some point in time. Bailey vs Sasha was match of the night, and Balor vs Owens ruled.

okay so NXT had by my count one MOTYC and three HMs

I will accept a Summerslam that has even one (1) legit HM contender and no (0) WMOTYC contenders. More than that is gravy.
