Alucard Posted May 5, 2018 Report Share Posted May 5, 2018 I can totally see fans from 20 years from now not getting this feud, thinking it's something overly melodramatic, or even that Gargano is a very bland babyface and Ciampa is a cartoon villain. Some already do. I find Ciampa really goofy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Enthusiast Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I loved Ohno/Ciampa. Also, interested to see what a Ricochet/Dream match looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss Rock Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Ohno-Ciampa was really good and the segment with Ricochet and Dream was great. And in regards to Johnny-Ciampa, as much as I don't really want it to continue, I'd be fine with a hell in a cell match to blow it off.

Mad Dog Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 They get Hanson and Rowe better than RoH did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Speaking of Gargano, is he the early favorite for Wrestler of the Year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss Rock Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 In terms of in-ring work? I'd say so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Dog Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I'm trying to think of anyone that even touches his best two matches and not coming up with anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss Rock Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Almas was in one of them, ha. And the match with Black was probably one of the best matches of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 While Almas and Gargano had the higher end stuff this year, I would have to go with Seth or Miz due to the sheer volume of great stuff they amassed so far in 2018. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 I'm digging the new and improved Kona Reeves. Nice touches like DiBiase inspired offense and Ric Flair-style monogrammed trunks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 6-man main event was great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmartMark15 Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 6-man main event was great O'Reilly and Roddy make for some amazing big ragdoll bumping heels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Enthusiast Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 6-man main event was great Totally. Glad to see Oney get in a main event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.S. Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 Good show this week, but: 1. Lars Sullivan does nothing for me. I get why WWE would like him, but ehh. 2. Kona Reeves looks like he walked out of a 1970s dive bar wrestling show. His territorial look might be seen as a cool throwback to some, but it's all wrong for him IMO and I hope it's one of the presentation issues that gets ironed out over time, as we've seen in the past with NXT. 3. I zoned out during the main event because the Undisputed Era does nothing for me either outside of Roddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Evans Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Kona Reeves is so bad. Not in the so bad it's good territory but just awful. He was alright when he had the big Chinese guy named Jason being his bodyguard on the NXT Florida live events. So this weekend, NXT had the Revival on the Texas shows and Tyler Breeze on the Florida shows. I know it's because Black was in Europe with the main roster and all the callups being advertised but I wish they would do more of this. Especially the Florida shows during split crew weekends.

SirEdger Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Totally agreed. Gives something special for the fans and I think the NXT alums love being able to go back for a few shows as well. Win-win for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 I love that the ad for the NXT England show features Pete Dunne and Mustache Mountain as the stars, especially Dunne. Say what you will, but HHH knows how to promote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 It kind of sucks that Pete Dunne is going to be stuck in the WWE UK half-ass territory, he really should be killing people on either Raw or Smackdown every week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blehschmidt Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Did the main roster make up team get hold of Kairi Sane this week? Yeesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutenberger Posted May 27, 2018 Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 The Gargano-Ciampa saga might go down as one of the best angles of all time. Not only has it occasionally involved others (Almas, Black, Ohno), but the three main players do everything right.I loved the segment this week, and the highlight for me was Ciampa's almost shocked look when Candice was laid out. He may be a super villain at his point, but this was an accident that he didn't want to happen and it showed. Brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Enthusiast Posted May 27, 2018 Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 The Mauro Ranallo doc that aired on Showtime on Friday night was quite good. It was the realest depiction I have seen of someone who is living with the bipolar struggle and was just utterly heartbreaking at times and was extremely illuminating to me since I have never witnessed it firsthand. The movie is called “Bipolar Rock ‘N’ Roller.” https://youtu.be/CEgJO-zrtyk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 If given the right platform, Ricochet is the guy who would make wrestling mainstream again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrzfn Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I like Ricochet. He's charismatic, good looking, very athletic. But I have a tough time buying into him on that level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Jackson Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Watch his match and then the segment from the last show with Dream, he's over on another level doing things nobody else can do. The crowd is in awe of him. He got a friggen standing ovation mid match after that suplex spot. Sure it's Full Sail, but I think he's got big time crossover appeal. He feels like 2018 more than any other wrestler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
