William Regal was revealed to be the new WWE NXT General Manager at tonight's tapings from Full Sail. The following matches were announced for the September 11th live NXT Takeover 2 special on the WWE Network:
Fatal 4 Way for the WWE NXT Title
Sami Zayn vs. Tyler Breeze vs. Tyson Kidd vs. Adrian Neville
The fatal 4 way could be the match of the year if booked right
It dont matter if its retarded. Anyone who has watched WWE for more then 15 minutes knew where they would go with him. This is pretty normal booking for them. It's perfectly in line with what the WWE have done before and what they will do again. We have no say (and for me rightly so) in these storylines. To be offended by something we know that the WWE is going to do is to me is pointless.
I could say I was offended by Zeb's comments on Raw about the flag being a symbol of Dad's taking their sons fishing and mothers teaching their daughters to cook. This is 2014 such sexism is not acceptable or the new stable of Xavier Woods etc, we all know where that will go.
If you going to sit and watch WWE you are going to see storylines like this, We have seen them before and we will see them again, Sitting arounding and moaning about it is just the type of thing HHH was going on about in his promo about him and his mate Mark.
If Vince did not take notice of the peoples views when they did the Hogan/Slaughter fued then he is never going to, Just people have a choice they can sit back and enjoy the show or they can sit back and moan and bitch about it and bang on about how shocking etc or they can switch off.
Me? I going to sit back and enjoy the show and see how they finish this storyline (be it 1950,1980 or 2025) and hope Lana and Rusiv make as much money as they can while this storyline is going on as I think both are very talented people.
I just think we have become over senstive to stuff nowadays. FFS people are spending their days complaining about a poster for the new Turtle film, Come on people have you really got nothing better to do?
Instead of moaning about it just take them for face value and enjoy. A bad guy is going to get his arse kicked sooner or later. For the first time since he has been around I want someone I think has talent to be put in a programe with Cena, Hell I would not even want Hitler and Putin have to suffer working with that waste of a place on the roster
WWE will use anything to make money or get a wrestler over
I don't pay to consume WWE. I am not a mark by any stretch of the imagination or definition. The last WWE product I paid for was a CM Punk limited edition print signed by the man himself and Jill Thompson.
A mark is someone who remains a fan of the product no matter what, tunes in every week and pays their way only to complain. I can assure you, I am proactively not endorsing the product with my wallet only to complain about the product I receive. I am not jumping for joy over expected returns, heel or face turns or lacking knowledge of the way the business works.
I understand how the business works on a basic level but I also think at this point it should be evolved to a higher station, just like movies and comic books. Mediums should raise their game in accordance with changing times and increasing expectations. The special FX in even the worst B movies exceed those of the 1970s. It's about raising your standards in relation to cultural development. As it is, Lana and Rusev's gimmick is literally profiting from real warfare. Even in the 1980s when the Col d War was still going on, Nikolai Volkoff was simply reciting the Russian National Anthem because bodies weren't falling out of the sky from shot down airliners, it was a bloodless tense conflict.
So, please do not opine to me as if I am somehow ignorant, it is insulting and if anything only illustrates your own perceived position while also undermining it through selective ignorance.
You want them to make as much as money as possible from this angle?
Tell me, had one of your family died on the MH17 flight, hypothetically, would you want them to profit from the death of your loved ones without even donating a penny to the UN fund or their funeral costs? It's easy to endorse and comment from afar when the suffering and loss doesn't land on your doorstep. I think your callous ignorance betrays a selective degree of detachment that borders on the inhumane. By that logic the victims of 9/11 were worthy sacrifices to give America reason to fear Muslim extremists. But that same logic is also cruel and sociopathic.
P.S. "It don't..." Sorry. "It doesn't...." master the basic before you presume to address the complexities of things. Again, it undermines your position of assumed authority if you type like a 6 year old ignorant of grammatical standards using Eastenders level diction. "What was done was done, innit? Now leavitout!" doesn't cut it on a credible level.
Can't say i'm too fond of having Enzo and Cass beat like that
The Bayley title chase is about time it happened. Shame the Sasha/Charlotte feud isn't going to happen
Regal as GM is a good choice
As for the matches announced for TO2, the Hair v Hair match should be great value. My one issue is with the fatal 4 way, while there is no denying that will be an amazing match, have they forgotten Breeze is the No1 contender and has been allowed to cash it in when he likes? Having Kidd and Zayn in there sorta kills the point of it
I haven't seen this week's NXT yet but will catch up this evening and post my thoughts.
And who knows, if we're lucky we may get Devitt and Kenta to debut at Takeover 2

] I think Breeze gets his one vs one match within this set of tapings and there's some sort of dodgy dealings to finish it. The four way should be good fun and is hopefully a way to put the belt on Sami but I always prefer a singles match because they just tend to have more magnitude. Still, it'll be fun because they're all exciting competitors.
I think we might get announcements about their débuts and maybe an appearance but I doubt they'll have matches. I think the Network débuts in Japan in October so I think they'll hold off Kenta's first match until then.
It is. I think Garrett Dylan is a reference to a movie Kris Kristofferson was in called Pat Garret and Billy the Kid - Garret obviously being a titular character and Bob Dylan being one of the stars.
Dr. Austin attacks Mr. McMahon (5th of October 1998)
John Cena attacks Edge in Edge's hotel room (10th of July 2006)
The Shield attack The Rock (21st of January 2013)
Sheamus attacks Jerry Lawler (16th of November 2009)
AJ Lee attacks Kaitlyn (25th of March 2013)
Brock Lesnar attacks CM Punk (15th of July 2013)
Kane attacks Daniel Bryan (21st of April 2014)
Vader attacks Gorilla Monsoon (22nd of January 1996)
Mankind attacks Jim Ross (9th of June 1997)
Wade Barrett leads Nexus to destroy John Cena (7th of June 2010)
I like the Austin, AJ Lee and Wade Barrett's (Nexus) attacks.

seen that episode before, had me in stiches.

could be a blank cd and the internet will eat it up to be fair.
Haha, think I nearly wee'd myself watching it
Garrett Dylan
Travis Tyler
Slate Randall
Mac Miles
Dani Jackson
Only thing I really see in this is some of the guys haven't been signed very long.
I had a feeling we would see more turnover and less hanging onto people for years in the hope they can make something of them.
Is that Kris Kristofferson's son?
One of them is, I'm not sure which though.
It is. I think Garrett Dylan is a reference to a movie Kris Kristofferson was in called Pat Garret and Billy the Kid - Garret obviously being a titular character and Bob Dylan being one of the stars.

Lets go R-Truth.
