I'm really not sure the sociopath in denial will work for the guy- when he speaks, you can't believe he's a monster any more. At least it makes some sense of why he thinks he needs tag partners- he need to convince himself and others that he can cooperate and fit in. But hey, it's something new, and more plotlines!

That Ember Moon promo was pretty bad. The contacts are ridiculous and her heavy breathing idle animation stance was silly too. Should be a good match though! Sullivan's face looks like a beefier Baron Corbin from some angles and it was weirding me out.

I think that promo was a vindication of everything Bryan says about her (amongst other people). The fans don't hate Asuka, they don't want her to lose, nobody is in her league, they want Asuka to win forever. Or at least don't want her to lose in NXT.

if the dark tyrant of NXT, HHH, wants it run like an old school promotion, Asuka will leave on her back

Asuka is getting plenty of heel heat. It's not genuine visceral heat but still.

Put Asuka in a DQ still loses the title stipulation and have her brutalize her way to dropping the title.

I really like Ember in-ring, and they're gonna kill it Saturday, but I cringe when she picks up the mic. SleepCousinDeath posted:Big guys with goofy voices is the best tho. Brock made a career of it

I feel like the best way to approach this is if Ember wins on Saturday, turn her heel immediately after that. Give her a bit to try and work on her mic/acting/character skills, and if they still suck by time Takeover Houston comes around (which seems likely considering she's had 6+ months to work on these skills, and has made marginal improvements at best), have her either drop the title back to Asuka or someone like Kairi Sane. Asuka is on a whole different level compared to Ember, and it shows. DarkstarIV fucked around with this message at 17:40 on Aug 17, 2017 |

Tweak posted:why the hell didn't they just go with Nikki Cross forever ago Probably because its not outside the realm of possibility that Nikki Cross is main roster bound after Takeover. That's if AOP retains, that is.

Tweak posted:why the hell didn't they just go with Nikki Cross forever ago Using that Asuka/Cross match to show that Asuka can't be kept down, and then eventually having her fall to the Eclipse, is in theory a great idea to get Ember over. Their problem I guess is that Ember isn't able to connect with anyone yet and Nikki really owns so most people would've liked this in reverse. Are they gonna make Nikki change her name on the main roster in case Nikki Bella comes back? Have they ever had two active wrestlers with the same first name performing concurrently?

Well I don't think they ever made Undertaker remove his real life first name, Kane, from his driver's license.

Nikki Cross isn't on Asuka's level and had like 4 matches total before her title match. They made the right call.Wazzu posted:The fans don't hate Asuka, they don't want her to lose, nobody is in her league, they want Asuka to win forever. Or at least don't want her to lose in NXT. Yes, this.

Were Blackman, Austin and Regal on the roster at the same time during Regal's first run? That'd be three Steves.

i hope asuka wins, and we get a fake out of the iconic duo trying to end the streak with a taser but failing miserably between takeovers, and then asuka loses to ember in match 3.

I hope AB comes out to an actual black mass. I want a loving orgy of witches writhing all over the place covered in blood and cats and then aleister emerging from the center of them like dracula in the 1992 masterpiece Bram Stoker's Dracula Hail satan!

I was following the ticket prices for Brooklyn and it looks like I can get a decent deal. Here's the problem, as I see it: I don't want to give money to one of Trump's biggest donors. I don't have the network, I rarely watch the TV. I've gotten various reactions from friends after asking for some sort of moral guidance and it varied from "eh, it'll be ok" to "go but donate an equal amount to the ADL" to "that's a good point, boycott it". I know this is hardly the place for moral authority, but I'm seriously unsure as to whether or not I want to go this year.
