I'm just a sick guy, I'm really just a dirty guy.

this was fine but I'm not going to remember it in 5 minutes, which is how I feel about all of her matches. that's okay though for NXT since that's basically the maxim of the weekly tv

STOP DOING HEROIN
I dunno, I like Kimber Lee and have seen some good matches, but it's kinda telling that her biggest claim to fame is taking a stupid Razor's Edge bump from a man and nearly killing herself.

I'm sure it's not the first time they've done that, though. The intimate atmosphere probably speaks to them a little bit as indie guys.

I'm super hype for Tommy End, but I wonder how much of this occultist "anti hero" persona is going to be allowed to shine through on WWE TV. He'll be fine in NXT but I wonder how they'll evolve him if he moves up to TV. No more Baphomet tshirts, that's for sure... :(

If the WWE are just collecting resources to sit on, and kill competition, then that would be funny, particularly in who they see as competition.

It's weird. I remember watching Ninja Warrior all the time on G4, and now my parents watch every single episode of American Ninja Warrior and I can't be arsed to watch a single one.

I just know that one of the better male competitors that did it recently was named Jon Stewart and I kept thinking of the comedian.

It will be nice to see what she can bring to NXT if they do get her. It takes a lot of ability to make it through to the finals of that show.

...Can we have the radio?
Just came back from NXT Sydney. Highlights:

- Akira Tozawa vs. La Sombra was not a match I'd have thought I'd ever see live but there you go.

- Billie Kay and Peyton Royce looking like they were having just the best time while trying to be heels (it didn't work) :3:.

- DIY vs. The Revival was awesome to see live, easily the best match on the show.

- The crowd singing You're the Voice during the TM61 match.

- The Drifter being legitimately entertaining.

- Buddy Murphy looked pretty good in the main event and he got to do the Nakamura pose afterwards .

Really fun, probably the best wrestling show I've been to.

EDIT: forgot to add:

- The guy in front of me kept trying to start stupid chants and getting increasingly annoyed when no one, not even his friends, joined in.

- The guy who got really annoyed and confused about why people kept saying 10 when the ref was counting people out.

Just some good old-fashioned heeling, getting annoyed when the crowd was goading him, that kind of stuff. Nothing spectacular but more than I expected from the Drifter. Also when the announcer said the main event would be a six-man tag everyone booed, so when he came out the Drifter said the six-man tag was his idea.

The main event was probably the worst match. Lots of show boating to cover for Joe and Nakamura not doing anything.

It definitely was. Crowd wasn't super happy about it, but I expected it after all the forum talk about it.

I just wanted to add that the Asuka/Ember Moon title match was a lot of fun, if about 5 mins too short.

He was pretty fun at the Melbourne show too. Made a big show of us not deserving his special song he wrote, then when we all cheered that he sang it anyway. He's still not great in-ring but his heel game is very strong.
