Kross vs Cole vs Gargano vs Dunne vs Kyle - NXT Title
Raquel vs Ember - Women’s Title
Bronson & MSK vs Escobar, Wilde & Mendoza - Winner Takes All Titles
Mercedes vs Xia Li
Grimes vs Knight - Ladder Match for the Million Dollar Title
I’ll miss the first hour but I’m thinking we get Kross losing the title without being pinned. I’m hoping they just go back to Cole. Maybe Kyle steals it?
I hope Grimes wins but aside from that, I don’t care about this show sadly. Should be good wrestling as usual, but I just haven’t cared.

Bronson Reed's voice and look don't match up.

Theory and Indi rule as Diesel and Razor. Candice looks delightful.

I wonder how much the final auction bid was to host the pre-show?

Karrion Kross is going to lose tonight without getting pinned and be King Kross on Raw in months.

Todd Pettengill looking like the uncle you don't let your kids talk to at the wedding.

By the way, that Naomi Fox who opened the show seemed like a healthy gal.

I haven't been following the creative here, but what if Dibiase has someone come out to beat the shit out of both of these guys at the end of the match?

My idea actually makes perfect sense. Apparently Grimes has been dying for Dibiase's acceptance. Grimes can be the new money face of youth versus Dibiase's suit. Knight can disappear and go to Raw or Smackdown.

Is it me or does the crowd seem way down for this match?

Kross is so much bigger than everyone else in this match. It looks like a man fighting teenagers.

"Boy, I love Regal but I think this GM gig is past the freshness date."
They're reading my thoughts. Must be the Peacock gimmick.

That main event was so good, but Kross just looks out of place. Not just because of his size, but because literally everyone else in the main event picture can wrestle circles around him.
It's weird, but he belongs on the main roster. That entrance, that gimmick, Scarlett, all is better outside of the CWC.
Regal seemingly leaving the GM position makes me wonder if he'll just be a scout/producer for NXT from now on? Certainly they can't let someone like that go and coach for AEW.

Everyone else in the match is a better wrestler, but Kross has the star look and size. The other guys look like indy nobodies compared to him.

That's the issue. You're entire brand is filled with these smaller guys you've recruited from the indies. Who the fuck is going to beat Kross? Bronson Reed? I don't see it happening, but Samoa Joe? Maybe they bring in WALTER? But they haven't really done a lot with him when he's in the States. I mean isn't Imperium feuding with friggin Breezango?
Who else though? Everyone is small. That's why they should've taken the title off Kross without him losing and call him up where he can wrestle guys his size.
I know the size advantage makes Kross look like a giant in NXT, but eventually enough is enough.

He could be like Asuka and just say fuck this belt, I'm on to bigger and better things.
That wouldn't hurt anything, right?

I certainly see your point, but you’re left with all the guys who couldn’t beat him fighting for the belt. They need to make a star on his way out.
Balor, Dunne, Kyle, Cole, Gargano, I legit am lost on who could win the title.
Where the fuck is Roddy Strong?
Did they announce anything with that Diamond Mine vignettes tonight? I seriously only caught the main event

I seriously only caught the main event I wasn't serious. Having Kross lose the belt without losing the match tonight made the most sense. Get it on Kyle and let him and Cole feud. |

It would’ve been a perfect finish. Kyle gets Cole to tap, while he himself is in the middle of passing out.
Kross can look heartbroken in defeat, he could’ve broke the submission, opted to try to choke out Kyle, but Kyle’s heart and determination wouldn’t let him pass out until he got Cole to submit.
