Cannot believe I watched DIY win the titles live and in person. Did not expect that at all
The crossover I neeeeed ๐
God, both her and Bia getting injured is a major bummer.
This PLE card is a little underwhelming, but NXT has a history of killing it even with cards that on paper look a little "meh". I'll be hopeful going into the weekend!
I am going to say it every week, but Oba Femi just has it. When he says his catchphrase, I fully believe it. Super excited to see him live this weekend. Also happy Karmen and Arianna got themselves on the card! Wishing Tatum could've gotten a match, but alas
And that street fight was fucking awesome. Jaida and Michin killed it, each other, and themselves for us and damn I was entertained. Michin (even with losses) has looked amazing now that she's finally able to just go in the ring.
Oba and Wes are always must-watch for me. Hopefully they'll make some magic on Sunday. I cannot waaiiiit
That match was fucking ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ they brought it!
Lmao I love it. Chaos
I still think about a Trapper on RPD who seemed way more concerned with trap placements than hooking (I don't even think he hooked anyone at all before we finished gens) - it kind of seemed like maybe he was new or was just trying something new. Once we finished the last gen, he downed and hooked someone partway through EGC. We're all being altruistic and the guy gets unhooked, but once I make it back through a minefield of traps to the back exit, the Trapper is waiting there and we're blocked in thanks to Blood Warden.
We exchanged some nods as he watched us die. Dude outplayed the heck out of us ๐
๐ but also, those lavender fields are pretty scenic
God, I miss those blue mountain kits Utah had. So good, and perfect use of a sponsor on it
Godddddd the multiple passes between defender and keeper are so annoying. All that does is allow the other team to move in closer, apply pressure, and typically force a bad pass up field.
Every time they show the crowd, I'm reminded of the sheer quantity of fantastic merch KC has. So many good, colorful choices
I'm clenching every.single.time. a pass goes back. Few things I hate more than sending it back to the gk, especially if a forward is within sniffing distance
Lmao Mike getting so excited. Love it
Already huge turnover rate in the castle thanks to Larys.
Still feels weird as hell to see Arizona schools there. KU v UofA is going to be a fun rivalry for me and my dad.
Hell, I could imagine the response being different even with Pinoe and Sauerbrunn as locker room leaders.
I really think Albert got EXTREMELY lucky with the timing of her getting called into the team and having all her shit becoming public knowledge. She was able to slot in to a position that didn't really have much competition, and the locker room at that point didn't have a Pinoe or a Becky as a locker room leader once the controversy came to light.
Oba Femi just has IT. Dude looks/sounds intimidating as hell and he manages to back it up in the ring.
I don't even necessarily mind a heel turn (even though there really are too many at this point), but they've done nothing interesting with it. She's just become mean girl #7. And it doesn't really make sense to team her with others when the whole point of turning was to be more selfish ๐คทโโ๏ธ.
I will say that she's done a good job of switching up her in-ring moves to be heelish.
Fallon's heel turn is still just immensely baffling to me. She definitely felt like the next big face behind Lyra, but alas...
I still maintain that Roxanne has been most interesting as a heel when she's involved with Ava. I think they've worked really well in their bits together. I live for the sassy Ava snipes.
Main title scene on the men's side has been meh, but at least we have a really strong midcard with Oba. Heritage cup scene has also been entertaining. And anytime the Family is around, I'm happy. (Also, Rizzo has some GUNS)
I love when heel teams are supportive of each other, so I am always gonna be rooting for Meta Four. Love them together, and love that we got some Oro Mensah backstory
i NEED a shot or a segment of Ava cackling with glee when Roxanne finally drops the title. Or at the very least, a smug little smirk.
I hope she makes it in. Women's MitB is already looking like it's going to be ๐ฅ, and she'll only make it better. Could definitely see an in-match storyline brew between her and Iyo too
The smash cut to an Arby's commercial was jarring af
It's almost funnier that way - yeet was all over the place years ago and meant something completely different and yet Jey has managed to get crowds of thousands chanting it in 2024
