NXT tapings happening right now

quote:

Jeet Rama over Maxx Stardom in the dark match. Jeet was accompanied to the ring by the Bollywood Boyz.
Hideo Itami over Kona Reeves.
Killian Dain over Danny Burch.
Heavy Machinery (Otis Dozovic & Tucker Knight) over some enhancement talent. After the match they say they want the Authors of Pain.
Sonya Deville over Lacey Evans. Both women are renamed, Evans used to be Macey Estrella and Deville was Daria Berenato.
Aleister Black over Cezar Bononi, once again in short order.
Hideo Itami over Roderick Strong to become #1 contender to the NXT Championship at TakeOver: Chicago.
After the match, Itami and Strong hug, but as soon as Roddy’s alone, SAnitY pounce.

DIY vs AOP for the tag titles in a ladder match announced for NXT Takeover Chicago.

Also apparently there may be a battle royale to become the number 1 contender for the NXT womens championship coming up as well.

There might be a match with Ember, Royce, Billie, Liv, Sonya, Cross, Ruby & Aliyah.


(although it should be painfully obvious who is going to win [its ember :ssh:])

I actually would bet not Ember. I feel they need to hold that back until Brooklyn. Throw one of the Aussies at Asuka in Chi-town, or do Nikki and/or Ruby and one costs the other the title match, playing into Asuka's heel turn where she doesn't win fair and square.

Brooklyn lookin' like Roode/McIntyre, Asuka/Ember (maybe with a gimmick?) and AoP/Heavy Machinery in a Big Boy Battle?

Eh, I'm still of the opinion that the only person who should take the title from Asuka is whoever wins the Womens Tournament. While Ember is good in the ring, she's still horrendous on the mic, and is pretty mediocre as a face right now. (this is assuming she wins the battle royale)

Honestly, they may end up doing that if Shirai signs.

I can see them doing it with Evie, Nixon Newell, or Kairi Hojo as well. Shirai is most likely staying in STARDOM, since she just won their trios title a few days ago. I'd say if they wanted to put it on someone who is skilled, Hojo would be the best bet, as she's probably the second or third best female wrestler in the world.

Oh, by the way: The final three are Ember, Nikki, and Ruby.

That would be a good match.

Also, Evie would be a good choice to beat Asuka eventually if they hold out that long.

With Itami on the rise, a stronger women's field, Heavy Machinery and the Flesh Golem Dylan Miley, NXT has me back on appointment watching.

Dylan Miley is basically Will Sasso's face, scalp and voice on Bruno Sammartino's body

People just need to stop doing suicide dives. Almost everyone does them so they're not special, they don't look that impressive, and it seems like everyone is one inch from loving themselves up.

Fans in attendance report Ember Moon may have suffered an injury at last night’s NXT taping when she was knocked from the top rope and landed shoulder-first on the guard rail. She didn’t participate any further in the match she was in, and was said to be crying as trainers helped her to the back.

Please stop doing dump bumps on regular TV matches, you guys :(

E: I'm guessing they'll just pull Ember from the title match, have Asuka retain at Chicago and do Asuka/Ember II at Brooklyn.

The way I read it she was pushed out of the ring somehow and ended up hitting the barrier like a suicide dive, not that she was actually doing a suicide dive.

Candice and Rachael are both just local talent here as they live in Orlando, plus they both have ins with Candice's husband and Rachael's father and boyfriend working there. Of course being "on the radar" makes a tournament appearance more likely, but both were odds on beforehand.

It makes sense to do this. Triple threats are normally better than 4 ways, and as Asuka was the one who threw Ember off the top rope they could actually take advantage of this to build some heat for the rematch.
