It's sad too because he's a really excellent talker, has a great build already and not a horrible worker for being 20 years old or whatever

Patrick will be fine, but it probably won't be with this gimmick.

Peyton did really well there and I'm glad Billie stayed out until after the match so Peyton could get some good work in.

He's incredible, to the point that he sometimes unfairly overshadows Ciampa who is actually way better than I remember him being in ROH.

Revival taking the attack of opportunity to take out DIY but then just going ahead and laying out AOP by themselves anyway was great.

I was sure that they were about to get owned by AoP, so that surprise low bridge into another Shatter Machine was great.

I want to like Patrick Clarks gimmick but I feel like there is no commitment from him. It doesn't seem like he believes anything he is doing. He is just being generic flamboyant guy. Even his tights are just black. Dude needs something a bit more.

This is why I was so confused by Billie carrying the workload on the ring for months leading up to Dallas.

This might have also been the first time that Ember Moon came to the rescue and the final result wasn't her getting tossed out of the ring while the Aussies leave victorious.

I was listening to the Observer from a couple days ago and Bryan said if it wasn't for Elias Sampson injuring his knee he would have been on the main roster for a year at this point, and now that he's recovered he is due to be called up any time now. Is that for real? I mean there's no way right

You could make the case that he was the most over heel on NXT, and has the body type they love. I would like to see him have a good match and stuff first though.

As soon as he starts having good matches people will like him. The Drifter must remain pure

Yeah, that would really be the perfect use of them. They still have a ways to go before they should be called up, but their character work would mesh perfectly with Alexa as her lackeys someday.

The crowd is impressively bad, but this episode thus far is also two non-matches and one barely-match with an inexplicable injury angle on a heel, so I'm not sure how much better it would've fared.
