    10 years ago, Nexus debuted and I'm not even sure if that's more recent than I would have expected or further back. Wrestling is weird to me in terms of placing things like that.

    Anyway, Takeover starts in just under 2 hours. There's a half hour pre-show before it but I don't think there are any matches, just the 6 matches that had been announced for the main card.

    Supposedly after getting fired, Vince called up Zack Ryder's wife and asked if they could use their pool for the Otis/Mandy segment and was pretty pissed about it.

    To add insult to injury, Miz and Morrison were in town, called to ask to hang out and brought Otis along not knowing about the pool request and Zack thought they were ribbing him.

    Trips can't handle Cody having a terrible live music performance for his entrance so had to 1-up that pissant with whatever the hell that was supposed to be. Wow.


    I do really appreciate them bothering with a set for this, even though I'm still scratching my head over using IYH.

    Eh, it was always going to be basically an extended squash. But yeah, doesn't help that he hasn't done anything good since like... Survivor Series/War Games?

    This show hasn't been bad by any means, but it feels completely unremarkable. At this point, I'm just expecting Rhea to pin Io or the other way around. You've got to have Charlotte be the one to take the pin, but this is WWE, so I dunno. Retaining wouldn't even shock me.

    Seems they have mics in the "crowd" and don't have them in sync. Been that way the whole night, which I guess is why there's the double ring bell. Some of the chants and stuff have seemed off too.

    Didn't they use the same finish where Rhea pinned someone(Sasha or Becky i can't remember) while Charlotte was using the figure-8 a few months ago?

    For some reason, at least in my mind, I picture Vince having a teleprompter somewhere for the NXT lackies in the crowd to go off of. Like when to cheer, when to boo, what to chant, etc.

    Vince browsed reddit so they knew what to chant.

    Vince forgot to tell them to social distance. Wasn't that what they claimed was the reason for no chairs?

    Didn't like the Charlotte back to NXT experiment and they could have done this without her, but at the end of the day I'm just glad Io won.

    Ten bucks says Charlotte gets moved to Raw and they job Askua out to her again for the title.

    Probably. I don't expect it'll be til Summerslam though. Next week Nia, next month Shayna needs a break from beating jobbers and Natalyas, so she can take her L to the champ and then go back to feasting on jobbers til early November. As the only woman important enough to get an actual program that's non-title, Charlotte will spend the bulk of the next two months feuding with Bianca, if someone on staff remembers that they called her up.

    Bonus points if Bianca does the "she doesn't even go here" bit again.

    Hire me, Vince!

    There's only really about 9 other guys on the roster and 3 of them are in his stable.

    If you're asking just about the next major match/Takeover in Aug/potential to end the reign, then jeez... I'd think it's probably 80% chance that it'll be Ciampa and/or Gargano, maybe Balor (who I'm hoping could finally get the WALTER match).

    Priest is good, but he's also damaged right now after being in that Lee-Dijak-Priest endless loop. He needs actual direction and momentum and I'm not sure that's something that would be so quickly done.

    Is Dunne officially in NXT or he splitting time between that and UK? Either way, he's not here now and though he's a viable repeat challenger, I'm not sure he'd be a priority.

    Keith Lee is probably closer to seeing a Universal Title shot than he is of seeing a NXT title shot.

    Kross has not been in front of a live audience yet. The character is good. The look is great. Find out how an audience takes to him and how he works their audience before going crazy. Challenging for/winning the NA title next Takeover would probably be fine.

    So that said, if Cole needs someone sooner, as basically a +1 successful defense between Takeovers? Someone that could answer the "I beat everyone and have nothing else to prove" promo that you know is coming, bounce back despite losing to that midget, who could have a good match with him, and maybe some fun leading up to it? Easy. Timothy Thatcher

    or it'll be that weird Lumis guy
