Von Wagner's three favorite wrestlers growing up were Snitsky, Heidenreich, and Tomko.

Been watching on and off for the past hour. This shit is bad. Like drizzling shits bad. That segment with Cora Jade and the other girl with that poster child for a serial rapist was pure cringe.

Did not accurately predict the ladder match.

Ladder match was a fun spot fest, as they should be. And I think no one got hurt, so that's a plus too. Better to get Hayes out of the N/A title picture if you want him as a main guy.
That haunted house garbage was the drizzling shits. They have never worked or been entertaining, I don't know why they feel necessary to do shit like that. The acting was faker than Mandy's tan.

I don't watch NXT all that much anymore, so Waller vs. Apollo Crews being in a Casket Match is just beyond weird.
The last Casket Match? Taker vs. Rusev at Saudi.

Why is there crushed velvet pillows inside the casket?
I like the talent involved in this, but this has been a dumb match. Crews went through the lid of one casket, so druids brought out a spare so they could close the lid?
Caskets R Us was open luckily for them

Next to Bron, Pretty Deadly is the best part of NXT and it’s not even close honestly.

So Roxy & Cora both fell off the balcony/structure thingy and Cora just essentially no sold it, popped back and up and went right back in the ring.
Pop Rox into the chair pile for the win.
They broke these two up too early, this feud has felt rather directionless. I like both, despite Cora being a local girl, I hope Roxy wins the title from Mandy eventually.
That was all I could watch tonight. Will catch the rest tomorrow morning

Good. Too talented for Main Event purgatory. Even if that means coming back to NXT.

"According to Bret Hart in his autobiography, both Michaels and Triple H held intense dislike towards The Rock. Despite being bogged down by an abysmal gimmick, Rocky Maivia was talented and Michaels felt that he would take the place intended for his best friend, Triple H. But it was mostly Goldberg."

As the resident NXT defender, that's the Flair v Steamboat of NXT 2.0. |

HBK unveiled a new match happening at Deadline, the Iron Survivor match. It’s essentially Ironman meets Scramble meets King of the Mountain.
5 people are in it. 25 minute match. 2 enter and every 5 minutes someone new comes in. If you win a fall, you get a point, if you lose a fall, you go to the penalty box for 90 seconds. Winner with the most falls becomes #1 contender for the Mens/Womens titles.
Credit for them trying something new, even though it sounds super convoluted.

That match sounds like something from 2008 TNA.

So honest question, Mandy has been women's champion for over a year now. NXT is for folks to improve, has she improved at all since being there? Her character is the same (she's hot, that's it), she cuts bad promos, her matches are quite bad (unless it's a multi woman match where others work around her).
It's just been very odd, I watched the Last Woman Standing match with her & Alba Fyre, who she has now beat 4 times during her reign. What's the end game here? Roxanne? They drag this out all the way to Mania weekend?
