That's a disheartening finish.

Maybe Balor stays in NXT?

i cant fault them for the issues in that match, the medical stuff really threw off any sort of groove/story

but i think that was the weakest match of the night even tho joe was great

Well, overall, that was a good show though the main was not as great as the previous two matches. I was thoroughly entertained.

Take care all. I don't know when I will be back, not for Wrestlemania. Probably for the next Takeover show, wherever it may be.

Austin/Hart finish is better because it was a Million Dollar Dream and not just a sleeper. Million Dollar Dream traps the arms in that counter in a way that a normal sleeper doesn't. (This thought ripped off from the Lapsed Fan, but I agree with them.)

makes sense

Why is Joe just walking away?

god stop trying so hard

It is so hilarious to see how overrated Balor is by the lolIWC. The dude is such trash and is basicaly NXT's Cena but hey he wrestled in Japan once and has a cool entrance.

I understand skipping Wrestlemania, but the following Raw almost always delivers.

It was better than Corbin/Aries, IMO.

I wish I could take your word for it, but I can't let the WWE main roster disappoint me again. It already ruined my love for wrestling, which had been slightly rejuvenated by these NXT Takeover shows and NJPW.

You should seriously give Lucha Underground a shot

Check out Lucha Underground.

So the stream quality for this was 100% perfect with not one second of lag for me.

What are the chances we have a problem free Mania?

I say quite unlikely given the more massive traffic from the mast people watching it.

I had lag issues tonight, and unfortunately several of them were early in Zayn/Nakamura.

During a four-hour show like WM you can expect them to at least happen occasionally.

my network was choppy until the women match

overall a great ppv, would be ecstatic if anything on sunday comes close to the best 2 matches tonight

If Joe gets called up to the main roster, he's the real winner. At least until he's turned into Joeasaurus the dancing third Uso.

Been to mania 25 and 30 and I think that was the most fun I've had at a wrestling event.

Not sure how the chants came through on the network. But that place was incredibly loud

Great night

just watched the card.

First time seeing Nakamura




I need to watch it again but my first thoughts watching it was that it was "too good". Like it seemed to violent for Vince/Stephanie and their whole PG thing. Maybe just because the first time seeing Nakamura his style is jarring but I kept thinking that if he ever goes on Raw they're going to water his style way down .... thoughts?

Overall the I thought the card was a 10/10, I was hooked for the entire time. Bad break with Joe getting cut in the eye but it was still a good match considering.

**** PG indeed

Missed watching live but just almost finished. Card was great until all of the "you must wipe off and try to control it". I thought about turning it off when the black outfitted guys were cleaning him up outside the ring. I turned it off the second one of them entered the ring a minute later. **** PG, indeed.

Grunch, watching now. Just watched the tag match and it was great but......

MOTHER****ING IBUSHI! That CW tourn is going to be awesome.

Finished watching. Corbin is such a good heel and looked great in that match. Kind of a lackluster finish and debut for AA though, I guess they're keeping the feud going. Corbin's belly button looks like a mouth which makes his body look like a smiley face.

Shinsky's entrance and theme was awesome. Sick match, not sure it topped Styles from WK10 but still obviously 4*+. Going to be fun to see if he gets to work that style against someone like Orton.

Waifu vs Bailey was also great. Easily Bayley's best match in NXT for me. She proved me wrong when I said her moves lack impact. I guess the obvious reaction is that Bayley is getting called up and confronting Sasha on Raw but the women's division in NXT isn't that deep atm.

Roode hype. Pretty awesome to see him getting a pop and staying all business. Starting to feel a bit like NXTNA but he is a perfect fit for the WWE.

I enjoyed the main event 99% for Joe and 1% for Balor. I also didn't mind the ref stoppages, stuff like that adds to kayfabe for me rather than detracts from it. Then Balor kicked out of the muscle buster and the match lost me. I hated that ending sequence and if Joe isn't getting called up immediately then I hate the result even more. Good match that turned to poo once Balor played his Cena card.

I like how in NXT(and pretty much every other promotion) the guy out first doesn't get out of the ring while the guy out second does his entrance routine like they do in WWE. It's a small little detail but it looks really dumb to me.

Graves was very good, Cole Jnr was average. I love how hyped the crowd was, a little cringy a times but they still made the show a lot better. Awesome show overall.

Does Nakamura speak English? I can't find any promos of his on Youtube. As awesome as he seems so far, how high is his ceiling really?
