knifeparty Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 it's not the best but it could be a lot worse considering it's WWE - regardless I purchased it only because it's the first WWE nakamura tee haha Ordered it last night for the same reason, lol.

Breezus Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 I love his new song. Takeover was so fucking good. This song has been on repeat all day. I was a bit worried that his new theme wouldn't be as epic as 'Subconscious' but CFO$ knocked this one out of the park. Watched Zayn/Nakamura for the second time. Match of the Life.

Family Friendly Rap God Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 What a fantastic show. Start to finish. Corbin finally delivered. I haven't been his biggest fan, but he and Aries had an absolutely great match. He really stepped up tonight with his best match by far. Nakamura and Zayn stole the show though, as expected. Match of the year, calling it. Corbin/Aries was the weakest match to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Corbin/Aries was the weakest match to me Really? I thought it was Bayley and Asuka, mainly because of the finish. Out of curiosity, what did you dislike about Corbin/Aries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabwalker Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 i agree. thought corbin/aries was only OK. It wasn't a bad match but compared to everything else it was blah. Thought Asuka v Bailey was fantastic. Didn't mind the ending at all. Just wish the ref would have picked up and dropped Bailey's arm 3 times like they used to do back in the day.

cfrancese5 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 I thought Bayley Asuka was the weakest match of the night... there style just doesn't mesh well... Asuka fights so dam stiff.. but I thought the way it ended was great it really drew the crowd back in... such a well booked show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knifeparty Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 What do you guys think of this HOF class? I feel it is pretty weak overall. Sure Sting, the Freebirds, and Stan Hansen are in it but the rest feels pretty meh. I say that as a fan of the Big Boss Man as a kid.

Out of curiosity, what did you dislike about Corbin/Aries? It was kinda disjointed. Corbin is getting better in the ring but he's still underwhelming to me. The ending was odd too. It didn't help following that awesome tag match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't help following that awesome tag match I can definitely see that it was a touch disjointed and I definitely agree that coming after the tag match was unfortunate. I liked the quick finish ending though. Gives Corbin an out for the future. Something like Aries pulled a fast one on him, and it won't happen again. I wouldn't mind a rematch between those two. They could probably put on an even better match the second time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Family Friendly Rap God Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 "They are signed to an NXT touring contact, but not developmental. They can't do TNA, Ring of Honor, Lucha Underground, New Japan, places like that. But they can still do Evolve or PWG. But, WWE has first call on their services." In regards to Gargano and Ciampa. If the other workers hated Blue Pants... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingvinyl Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Nakamura and Zayn stole the show though, as expected. Match of the year, calling it. I think fans who started watching within the past decade or so tend to think of a lot of falls finishes as keys to a successful drama-filled match. But this, this Nakamura vs. Zayn was a fucking WRESTLING match. It was brilliant. Lots of psychology, drama and even close pinfalls, etc. But it was wrestling. It was so good. Got me excited to be a fan again. If that wasn't a 4 or 4.5 star match, I don't know what was. Hell, it should probably be a five star match.

I have never been so excited just watching two men forearm each other for roughly 3 minutes. I loved the way Zayn changed his style to go head to head with Nakamura. I, also, really liked that Nakamura only had to hit one Kinshasa to take the win. It was a nice change of pace from the high drama matches with roughly 2 finishers from each competitor.

Breezus Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Ryder winning the IC Title now feels like Beck winning Best Album at the Grammys last year. Fucking love Ryder and he completely deserves it but it makes no sense at all. That victory should've gone to Sami Zayn (especially after losing against Swagsuke). Don't get me wrong though, it was still a really good match and a great way to start the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWindBlower Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The Jericho/Styles finish shocked me. Not sure how I feel about that one. Seeing Michaels, Foley, and Austin was such a great nostalgia moment. This Lesnar/Ambrose match is about to tear the stadium to the ground.

Breezus Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Nah man, Styles losing against Jericho out of all people is fucking ridiculous. What the fuck ... Shit, not even the nostalgia moment is doing it for me and these are some of my favorite legends ever. Would've been fine with it if at least the New Day didn't look like chumps at the end.
