I don't regularly watch NXT, so seeing Aleister Black tonight was delightful. Nikki Cross's theme is garbage. It's like Sanity's theme with a dubstep remix. The screams in it reminds me of Daffney in WCW. Seeing a women's battle royal was interesting since, with how thin their rosters are, neither RAW or SmackDown could pull one off. I don't understand WWE advertising on its own show, on its own network. I can understand it from a time perspective, where you need to cut entrances or something similar, but I can't fathom why ads play in the middle of matches. I found it hilarious how NXT got rid of Almas's pyro and put pyro in his tron instead. Roderick Strong's lack of character reminds me of playing role playing games where you can customize your character's face and hair and race, but instead you get lazy and just choose the first default option. Undisputed Era's theme is also garbage.

Question: Aleister Black, on Wikipedia, is listed at 205 pounds. Do you think he'll be called up to the Cruiserweight division? While I tremendously don't want that to happen, if WWE is to continue pushing the division then you need big names in it.

All I could think of as the stream of forgettable Mae Young Classic competitors were walking to the ring under the same theme was this is just like the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.

Hell, even the commentators were having trouble noticing half the women.

Question:
With the upcoming Takeover WarGames match, what were your past viewing experiences of them from WCW? I only ask as I listened to Review-A-Wai this morning.

Really digging Cien Almas' character now and his work in the ring. Strong looks so generic and boring...he could have fit in the Smackdown invasion roster with his jacket and nobody would have noticed.

The visual of Velveeta Dream popping up so close behind Black was perfect for his character. There feud is still the best one going on in the WWE.

Question (not related to NXT): I'm visiting Vancouver next month, any suggestions on where the best brewery is? I enjoy your discussions about the various beers you've tried in Canada and want to see what I'm missing out on.

Man they just see Oney as a jobber. Too bad because the crowd digs him. Tino and Moss improving. Tino is very easy to hate.

Billie Kay is awesome. Pulling the hair and then a proper use of social media to further an angle.

Let Adam Cole be Adam Cole.

Questions:
1. How many women do they move up? Iconic and probably Nikki for sure. They have a ton after the Mae Young.
2. Could WWE have fucked up Finn Balor any worse than they did after beating AJ and losing to Kane...They should have been setting up Bullet Club vs Shield

So I may of marked out with the audience when Lorcan stopped and Burch came out and finally teamed. New jobber team it seems.

The Battle Royale was fine but should have been called the Belair Royale as it did a fine job of pushing her…That hair spot was crazy. Shame the beginning of the show gave away who would be winning it though.

Black and Valveeta continue to have the best storyline and build to TakeOver just because they are the only ones with a proper build and storyline.

Almas/Strong turned in another cracking match. Think Almas could be the biggest redemption story this year in NXT.

Question: Does it anger you guys as much as me that the brass on the main shows seem to just screw over NXT talent? Asuka already looks normal after 2 matches. Really only Owens has made it work.

Cheers guys, keep up the great work.
