Every time I see Barbaro is still able to walk, let alone wrestle, I'm surprised.

Match was fun though, don't know if I'd call it a HM but that may largely because I'm unfamiliar with the product or the live experience with all the horns constantly blaring etc, which was kinda distracting.

That's called heat my friend.

2nd, incredible finish and both of them came out looking really strong. Really looking forward to the Welfare Queen feud now.

Even if it wasn't the ending I wanted, what an incredible loving match and it did NOT feel like the match was as long as it was. I mean that in a good way. The best way.

I know I'm late to the party, but Nth. I read about it since it happened and while I knew it was great I doubted they could top to Tokyo Dome match. I was wrong. I'm not sure what else there is to say other than I don't know what they do next but I'm already hyped for it.

Yeah I'd have made it MOTYC if it weren't for the Welfare Queen swerve that seemed to just be in there for a swerve's sake.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
Third to Nikki Cross/Asuka. I wish NXT still had the same staff working with them they did a couple years ago, the wrestling is still great but the stories could be so much better.

I'd only say HM myself, but that may be because I only know the background second-hand so the emotions wouldn't have hit as strong with me. It is a very good match though and people SHOULD see it.
