There was a very distinct shot of a woman walking, which stood out from everything else in that package, so I'm fairly sure this is Crazy Mary.

I can't imagine Ember wins the shot next week, because it feels like they'd save Asuka/Ember for Mania weekend. Maybe a Peyton win after turning on Billie?

Wait... now I can't remember? Is it Peyton/Billie/Ember or Peyton/Liv/Ember?

It's Liv.

I could see either Peyton or Liv as the winner there for a transitional feud until Mania. Ember or Nikki has to be the Takeover match.

If Peyton is going to be Champion, she needs a better theme.

https://youtu.be/l8ca54qrUnM

I mean, this is fine for a midcard heel, but a champion needs something a bit tougher.

So, what does that mean for Asuka, then? I assume she's going up, as there's nothing much left for her to do in NXT, besides fight some of the indie favorites.

DarkstarIV posted:

I can see Asuka getting called up after Mania (or even entering the Smackdown Womens Title match), because of the "there is no competition left in NXT" thing, and besides Ember, there is no one who is even remotely credible enough to face her. Have her show up on the RAW or Smackdown after Mania, and in exchange for vacating her NXT title, give her a RAW or SD Women's Title match, so she can continue her reign of terror on the main roster, until she breaks the streak. Because WWE will want to exploit that for ratings if at all possible.

As for the NXT Womens Title, they could use the upcoming Womens Tournament to put the belt on someone.

Nikki Cross is credible. Peyton could be made credible with a good program (maybe have her turn on Billie?). Not to mention the ton of indie talent that was just signed that could just Kassius Ohno their way into the main event.

There's a good division bubbling under the surface here, and I'm actually pretty positive on the directions it can go the rest of the year.

I also thought it was strange that the Drifter wasn't mentioned. Though there was a dark match before Takeover where Oney Lorcan fought "El Vagabondo". A masked luchador with a guitar. I'm sure those two things are unrelated though.

To be fair, Bo did the same thing. Came back one last time under a mask before going away completely

I can't believe how over El Vagabundo was, that's amazing.

His exit isn't exactly as good as Bo's, but it was still a fun segment.

man that sucks for itami

he got hurt and was out for like two years, then got hurt and was out for a few months, was replaced by nakamura as the breakout asian star, then broke one the jaw of one of the most hyped callups of the year

i have to imagine he's on the list for consideration for cutting

In WWE they are usually a checked box

exactly.

itami is japanese, hits hard, and comes off a legitimate threat.

tozawa does this in 205 already, plus is getting over by yelling a lot.

nakamura fills the niche, and has the added bonus of being the most charismatic man in existance.

now, its definitely possible that there could be two prominent japanese guys at once, especially with having two brands, so you never know, but i'd say chances are low
