spongeh posted:Main roster titantrons are just words now too. They've moved away from the showing moves type. I think if the arena has a large screen suspended in the center of the building, those videos play on there because the tron's new shape doesn't work well with the video aspect ratios.

When do you all think No Way Jose gets called up? He's got charisma, size, and he's a decent worker. I think he's a guy they could build up for an NXT title run, but it wouldn't be surprising if he gets called up way earlier to his long term detriment.

I don't think he's had enough matches under his belt to make it to the main roster without being aimless. He also needs to make his character more rounded, show off his serious side more than just in his matches against Austin Aries.

Bringing up No Way Jose now would make him Apollo Crews 2.

beggar posted:I don't agree with any of this. The explicit purpose of a stinger like Fabulous or AJs organ intro is to get your brain prepared to hearing their theme song. It'd be like taking the glass breaking out of Austin's theme, or cutting If Ya Smell from The Rock's. Stingers are important, yes, but I'm talking about the song itself. Probably the worst example of what I'm talking about was Wade Barrett's theme. He had the "God save our queen" stinger, then 8 heartbeats, then 8 unaccompanied guitar riff beats, then the song finally kicked in when he was like halfway down the ramp.

I never saw him work on the indies but Oney owns. He was my favorite part of the No Way Jose/Lorcan/Dawkins vs Authors of Pain/Riddick Moss 6-man main event I saw at the last house show I went to. And then Jose got Oney to dance, which was worth the price of admission alone .

I'm hoping sometime they get that match between Oney and Ciampa at NXT Lowell on tape someday, since it was the same show where Joe got the NXT belt from Finn.

Biff's match with Ciampa in PWG was what made me into a fan of both guys, they work really well together.

Tells you something when the only other picture in that article is of Tommy End. They obviously have big plans for him.

That pic is a link to a gallery of the trainees, so I don't know if it's indicative of anything, but we'll see if he debuts as Tommy End or if he's renamed something like Butch McGuirk.

Nikki and Damo being a couple sounds funny, visually because he's a loving mastodon and she's so tiny. Sanity would be the biggest stable in a long time with 5 people in it.

It is weird. It is open secret in Wrestling but they don't overtly publicise it at all. Good on them for keeping something for themselves I guess. They are a really nice couple been together for years .

Man, the last thing NXT needs is a massive loving stable. The talent pool already feels kind of thin without grouping a bunch of people together.

Sanity is unironically the best thing about NXT right now and will continue to be until Team Thicc becomes a regular feature.

I don't hate Sanity but Tommy End's aesthetic is so far beyond pretty much everyone in wrestling that it will be a shame to see him out with the Mad Max cosplayers.

Tommy End will be their next CM Punk, probably. Also, the members of Sanity need to have occupations as to what they do within the group or at least skits where they're in some apocalyptic hell-hole and they're raising hel.

I wrote off Roddy being included as a recruit as NXT making up the numbers but there's good story behind it. To be clear Roddy didn't do thing wrong. He's making up for the actions of other person & rolling up his sleeves.

Because Cross has a giant Scottish flag on her jacket, and being German was the one thing announcers would mention about Wolfe in his pre-Sanity gimmick. So it's not really surprising that you would think that. I'm cautiously optimistic about Sanity because NXT has been treading water for months now, and perhaps this will make the format feel fresh again. At least they are a natural foils for The Authors of Pain (strength vs. numbers).
