NXT Takeover: Orlando - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

There's a special going on.

In and optimistic.

Caught the last few seconds of the preshow. Didn't even know that was Renee Young until I heard her voice. Also very weird seeing Nigel not bald or not with spikes. Makes me sad

So 1st time watching nxt since kevin owens left. How is the announcer with the red afro? The arena was pretty empty 5 minutes ago

Not sure who you're referring to. I assume a backstage announcer whom I missed.

Nice to see Hero not in the Dream Team get up. Repping Sacramento tonight

I think he was talking about Sam Roberts on the pre show. He is not an announcer for WWE. He has a SiriusXM show and does a weekly wrestling podcast

One of the Sanity guys uses the One-Winged Angel?

If there is one move that the WWE should ban for the safety of their wrestlers, it the drop kick where the thrower lands flat on his back. Who thought it was a good idea to land that way. It doesn't add anything, and makes a drop kick look worse. Needs to go away right now

Black looks like a combination of CM Punk & Baron Corbin

Almas seriously ripping off Naito's poses and MiSu's armbar? The sanity guy ripping off the One Winged Angel? GTFO.

Black doesn't have the demeanor pre-match of a guy that should be trading ****ing headlocks with some jabroni. He should just rape this guy in his debut.

Black needs some work but he has a lot of potential. Loved the finisher.

That was really great stuff. A shame the booking was kind of ****. You knew once the AOP guy didn't tap to the crossface/figure4 that they were going over. The crowd lost a lot of steam once The Revival got eliminated. Everybody wanted to see Revival/DIY.

Almost certainly match of the weekend and good luck following this match, Asuka/Moon.

Revival are just so incredible at storytelling and psychology. The entire match comes down to them working with their bitter enemies for a common goal but the hatred getting the best of them as they couldn't resist fighting.

Great match.

yeah the things revival does with match psychology really puts them over despite not being very flashy.. hopefully they don't get nerfed / held back in that regard when/if they get called up. really great match for 3 teams that i dont really care about

Another really good match. Ember getting the upper hand most of the match and Asuka selling the vulnerability in the finish was great. A seed planted to end Asuka's reign and probably by Ember in August.

Nakamura and Roode might have the two best theme songs in WWE.
