When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

There's this very uniquely NXT issue where they have too many stars and not enough midcarders/jobbers so people that SHOULD be stars become jobbers, and people that should be jobbers sometimes end up with way too much TV time.

Like if you took the entire NXT women's division and dumped them into SHIMMER 2k20 it'd be one of the best rosters out there but not even Io Shirai feels like a star anymore because the roster's so crowded and she doesn't get to just do Io Shirai things that often.

I'm still able to enjoy the NXT women's division more than the women divisions in the other big US companies or brands anyway for what it's worth, but I also don't have a ton of experience watching the indies so I don't have much else to compare it to. I like that everyone is a credible threat to anyone else.

If his downside is good and he just wants money, then maybe yes. If he wants to wrestle then maybe no.

I don’t even read the results anymore, NXT has strong workers and a good women’s division, but if every movie you watched by a specific director always had an ending that insulted your intelligence and made you feel hated would you watch that director’s movies anymore? Even if it starred your favorite actors.

And then they fired the director under the pretense that he was taking time away to mourn his daughter.

He stepped away. And he was never doing another one. The only reason he got to do Justice League was that production start was only a week or so after the release of BvS and there simply wasn't time to replace him when it became obvious it was a complete bomb.

He was fired and WB used his daughter's death to claim he was stepping away.

KO on commentary

Edit: What a bad ending I think. Ember gets that distracted that by hitting her finisher on someone else and takes a really bad angle kick and loses again. Since her return she is 0-6. And now she is getting beat up by 5 others.

I think they're waiting for the WrestleMania season to push Ember. Pretty likely her team will win War Games. I think she did win her first match back though?

Uh, Candice has been heel for most of this year. None of the people on her team beat her down the past two weeks. Do you mean Toni?

I like that there's another Ghostface and KO is just like "yeah of course, there were two in the movie."

Scarlett came out in the first segment as Balor was leaving the ramp. And Balor 'knew what you are going to say so tick tock" and left. Priest was in the ring and called out Kross saying he is up to fight anytime.

Hunter sees AEW alluding to TNT/WCW canon and being successful so he tries to do the same thing for NXT.

Balor's stock has dropped so hard that nobody cares who he was in NJPW anymore though. His stock has dropped so much that being the first Universal champion doesn't even matter.
