Yeah, when I posted this...

I was thinking that once Bayley left, they would be fine because you still would have Asuka as champ, Nia as already main event level and Carmella and Alexa as credible challengers.

Now Nia, Alexa, Carmella are all gone. Bayley is certainly leaving soon.

So that leaves Asuka and....? Forget credible main eventers; they're isn't even a credible mid-card.

They should have been building up people up if they plan was to have 4 NXT women callups in/around the draft. For example, the tag division looks fine despite losing AA and Hype Bros because they've been building up TM61, Authors of Pain, and Gargano/Ciampa over the past few months.

You can't just put Billie Kay out there (who has won exactly nothing) and have her beat other people who have won exactly nothing and then think "hey, maybe she's not that far off from title contention."

Just catching up on last couple of weeks and MY GOD when Roode comes out there in his suit, he reminds me almost exactly of corporate HHH only with different color hair.

WWE Produces another great video package - this time for Bayley v. Asuka

Can't imagine that match not tearing down the house in Brookyn.

I cant figure out who is more bland, Hideo Itami or Andrade Almas

Dunno who almas is but I'm pretty confident he can't be worse than Itami

Just send that guy back to Japan or slap a mask on him and give him green mist or something

Joe/Nakamura interview was pretty lame. Shame, because it should be a really good match. Maybe they need to give Nakamura a manager? Because Joe's reason for getting mad at Nakamura was bad.

I'm sorry but Nakamura is one of the last wrestlers to ever need a manager. The problem is trying to put his character in situations like that interview, not the character itself.

Joe was already mad at him for what happened the prior week. I'm not saying that segment was the greatest ever, but I feel like you may have missed something to claim it was pretty lame

I missed last week's episode, so I guess you should take my criticism with a grain of salt.

Yeah you should go back and watch the end of that episode. The interview will look a lot different after you do

Introducing 3 women at once in a 6-person tag was a good idea. They should have done that a couple months ago. It looks like Billie Kay's "win streak" was just to feed her to Ember Moon. Hope she's good.

I was thinking about that Billie Kay vs Ember Moon match. Do we have any idea who Ember Moon is? Is she from the indies or Japan, or is she from WWE Developmental like Nia Jax or Dana Brooke were? It seems pretty risky to go straight from vignettes to debuting at a "PPV". I at least hope she does better than Dana Brooke did in her debut. That was horrible.

Can't wait for Joe/Nakamura. Should be a stiff match for the ages. Unfortunately I won't be able to watch live but I'm sure the wait will be worth it.

debating going

not sure if id rather do SS or Raw tho seems like prices are plummeting compared to where they were a week ago

Ember Moon is Athena. She's been on the indies for a while and is pretty darn good.

Her finisher is also amazing:

**** it just got a ticket

i'm going to Slam. Embarrassed at how much I paid on stubhub lol, but i'd been tracking them for weeks and haven't really noticed much of a dip.

Kobra Moon's sister? Max Moon's daughter?

On a serious note, that finisher looks cool but seems like it would be terrible for your back to be landing like that on a consistent basis.

Awesome enjoy

I noticed the prices getting lower last night. Slam not as much as nxt and raw though. Ill probably end up at one of those two anyway, i can never resist

In for Takeover, even though they're currently showing fans outside the arena chanting "NXT."

Any expectations for good matches outside of the main two? I haven't followed the weekly product in a while.

The Revival vs Gargampa should be great

tag team title should be really good i think. revival do a lot of tag stuff really well (stuff like trying to prevent tags, isolate opponents, tag a lot, etc) and gargano/ciampa are riding some good momentum after their CWC match and getting over well with their #gloriousbombs and stuff on twitter.

Oh God, the Rose Buds are back!

Crowd seems great
