Pretty good show. The throwback references were great. That IcoPro ad was classic

Didn't watch it. Reading the results, it sounds like a solid show but with no instant classic match. Is that an accurate assumption?

Pretty much. Nothing I'd say I would go out of my way to watch immediately but its a show to watch if you've got the time. TakeOvers are never disappointing and this fits that description. It's just not a top tier show, which by TakeOver standards, is a pretty high bar.

 

[The Q]

I agree. Guys...

I think a match has kicked Flair/Steamboat from Wreestle war 89 from my personal top 5.

That Women's match was perfection for their given time. It goes.

5) Mens wargames 2019
4) Steamboat/Savage WMIII
3) Flair/Shari/ Ripley Takeover In Your House
2) Edge/Orton WM36
1) Benoit/Angle Royal Rumble 2003

Idk if I have it that high.

but it was pretty damn good.

the timing In particular was on point.

3 way was damn good.

The Digs at Old school was good.

They did "Promotional considerations" commercials:

2 for the ice cream bars
1 for IcoPro
1 WWE sale with pettingal. 900 number

Oh and Dx, with road dogg, trying to run AOL.

 

[The Q]

I do t understand how that isn’t a double pin when you see wrestlers get counts in the figure 4 on the regular

 

[The Q]

Not even gonna lie, I wanted to see Charlotte 3 belts just to see the internet melt down

 

[wildturkey]

Guys, I think Roderick Strong and Bobby Fish are dead.

 

[Judge Fudge]

As usual. I didn't get to see it unless twitter vids and recaps, well... Till next Wednesday

I love the Ending though. No words spoken, no violence....

Just a message sent. Adam Cole....

 

[The Q]

They have a bizarre interest in having Finn balor go after irrelevant titles he hasn’t won yet.

cross going for the title after 3 matches is probably a bit rushed, but could be a fun story.

i watched number one on your list last night.

really enjoyed it. I love counter heavy wrestling like that

 

[The Q]

I feel like Vince would a lot of fun with dexter Lumis on the mid card on the top brands.

idk if he’s a top guy, but you can tell some stories with him and his creepy Stalker gimmick.

 

[The Q]

I thought HHH knew what he was doing with Balor....guess not.

 

[The Q]

Time to end the Robert stone brand. there’s no point to it at this time if they don’t win that match after everything else. It’s been less successful than rockabilly.

A couple of only ok matches so far for NXT this week. Just finished the Ripley match.

 

[The Q]

Strap match was the best match on the card by far imo.

pretty underwhelming night overall.

Spoiler: MASSIVE GREAT AMERICAN BASH SPOILER LEAKED

Keith Lee defeated Adam Cole to become the first double champion in WWE NXT history last night, winning the NXT title while also retaining the North American Champion when WWE NXT taped next week's Great American Bash Night 2 last night in Florida.

Some are saying it might not be the case because NXT has taped two endings before in the past but...

Spoiler

That seems like A LOT of confetti for something you won't even use. It was time to pull the trigger on Lee imo anyway.

Spoiler: Reason why it could be true

Photos of Lee standing in the ring as confetti rained down were posted on Instagram by WWE star Saurav Gurjar, who later removed them.

either answer is wrong.

the only person who should be champ on 7/9 is Finn balor

Question man.

Was the Lee/ Cole match worth to wait a week?

haven’t seen it yet. Will watch tomorrow morning.

was doing my taxes and watching aew now without sound because my dvr apparently fucked up royally. I have no sound for basically everything after the opening tag title match and I’m already on the 8 man tag.

no commentators is worse than no fans for me
