 NXT Takeover will take place on May 29, 2014 at 8PM EST with a pre-show starting at 7:30PM; with five matches scheduled so far. Recaps via Bleacher Report (http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...-more-for-event)  -Adrian Neville (c) vs. Tyson Kidd for the NXT Championship quote:Current champion Adrian Neville will be defending his title against the current No. 1 contender, Tyson Kidd.  -Charlotte (with Ric Flair) vs. Natalya (with Bret Hart) for the vacant NXT Women's Championship quote:Kidd is not the only Hart Dynasty member receiving a title shot at NXT Takeover. Charlotte and Natalya will be facing off the tournament finals to crown a new NXT Divas champion.  -Sami Zayn vs. Tyler Breeze to determine the number one contender to the NXT Championship quote:The No. 1-contenders match for the NXT title will see the egotistical, selfie-obsessed Tyler Breeze taking on the highly talented Sami Zayn.  -The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor) (c) vs. El Local and Kalisto for the NXT Tag Team Championship quote:The NXT champions will also be in action when The Ascension defend their titles against the team of Kalisto and El Local, who is better known to WWE fans as Ricardo Rodriguez.  -Adam Rose vs. Camacho to determine who throws the best parties in NXT quote:Adam Rose will be taking on Camacho in singles action. WWE audiences have only had a chance to actually see Rose wrestle on NXT, so if you haven't watched him before, this is your chance to see what he can offer.

Is it just me or is the logo placement in the women's match extremely unflattering to Charlotte? Also, juxtaposed like that, Adam Rose vs Camacho looks like "The Shield does wayyyyyy too much MDMA"

I like the new theme, but still think Lower The Boom was better. Although not to Adam Rose levels of BRING BACK HIS OLD THEME

Hijo Del Helmsley posted:Sami has a new theme. I like it. Sounds like it was ripped from a Canadian beer commercial or something. I guess it's also the first (vague) ska theme since the early days of Brian Kendrick. I guess if they don't want to simply dish out the licensing money for The Bouncing Souls, this will do nicely. Now just wait until they change it in a week.

Suben posted:Maybe someone should tell CFO$ that they should start using real loving instruments instead of having everything but guitars be lovely synths because it makes the entrance themes sound really amateurish. Yeah. Like, I love a lot of their work compositionally speaking, but loving hell. Also the other theme was much better, but also didn't really fit. If they did this theme, but had actual words to it and had an actual ska band performing it I feel like it could be pretty great. Also I've really fallen off NXT for several months, and feel like I haven't missed anything. Kidd doesn't feel like a threat to Neville's title (they need a top heel, gently caress) and if Breeze/Neville is the next title program I will continue giving zero fucks. Sami should be their guy down there right now. The iron was hottest with him/Bo for the title, and that ship sailed, only for Neville to win the title just because.

I watched the last big NXT special, enjoyed it, then tried to watch the next few shows but lost interest. I hope the news on recent signings are true, cause NXT really needs a shot in the arm in my opinion. Going to give this show tonight a shot though! It'll be nice to see Tyson get a chance to show off, if nothing else.

It is strange that they don't pair Natalya with her dad. If they want equal name draws, put Arn with Flair and have Jim & Bret.

I like Zayns new theme a lot. Mainly because it has an actual melody. I can't even tell you what his other theme sounded like.

Which episodes/matches/segments of NXT between arrival and now do I need to watch to catch up? I'm another who gave up after 3 or so weeks of nothing matches after arrival

Episodes after Arrival were pretty bad. I can't remember anything interesting happening. I would just watch the episodes from this month.

Blasmeister posted:Which episodes/matches/segments of NXT between arrival and now do I need to watch to catch up? I'm another who gave up after 3 or so weeks of nothing matches after arrival The Zayn/Breeze/Kidd triple threat from 5/15 is probably the only thing relevant to Takeover you should catch up on. watching The House That Bo Dallas Built crumble around him is also pretty good, his match with Big E last week was good, and his YOU PEOPLE promo on Full Sail was fun to see him stop Bolieving in them. Camacho vs Captain Comic (a Rosebud) from 5/8 was better than it had any right to be, and that episode had the Battle Royal in it if you are into those, RIP Dannah Burch (also Oliver Gray and Mason Ryan)

I don't know why they didn't do the Bo vs. Big match one week later on this show. It would have made the card a lot stronger.

Thanks, watched the triple threat and it was very good (highlight: 'All 3 guys!' chant, lowlight: Yoshi chants (?!) & Zayn crotching himself by accident) Any idea of when the Bo promo stuff was?

It makes it kind of sound like an Atom and his Package song, which is a thing I never thought I would say about wrestling entrance music.
