Live NXT October 1st 2024 Discussion Thread - NXT on CW Debut, live from Chicago

This isn't a culture thing. Mumble rap is merely terrible.

 

[Canadian Dragon]

Bad couple of weeks for those who don't like black culture in wrestling

the wwe superfan implying people are racist for not liking rap is quite the mental gymnastics

 

[Canadian Dragon]

I am a sad boy that Giulia lost to Roxanne. Also how long is WWE and Punk are going to milk the AEW exit and lockeroom cancer stuff? I feel like it is beating a dead horse now, move on.

Happy Trick got the belt back. Will be interested to see how they book Ethan going forward. Also interesting he got a run with the title but Guilia has to take an L.

 

[Y2Jayne]

Starting the show, gotta say I don't see how Giulia's "character" is different from Asuka's.

Rainbow hair, long coat, mask, dancing a bit during the entrance etc.
Hope they work on her gimmick in the future.

Cora is back

that's like 90% of joshis in Japan too

I don't watch Japanese wrestling, what's a joshi? Is that the word for female wrestlers?

yes.

fwiw I have no idea if she had a mask or a dance in Stardom. She was more an ice cold killer from what I saw and had very violent matches and promos. Hopefully she is not too watered down in America, would be a shame. If she's like Asuka it will be good. If she's watered down like Nakamura it will suck lol

 

[Y2Jayne]

Anyway I want to get invested in her, especially because she seems to speak English better than the Damage Ctrl girls, but that presentation is not enough for me so far. So I hope they work on her character unlike what they did with Iyo or Kairi.

Ah shit, Miz is here too.

personally didnt see her look tonight, but I was not a fan of her render or that get up. I much prefered her wit hthe side shave and and dreads or wtv. they made her look like an NXT girl with glitz and glamour in that render and I hated it lol

That was a good look, would make her stand out a lot more from other Japanese girls in the company.

yeah for my tastes this is peak. her new look and make up also, imo, do her natural beauty a disjustice. Obviously just my own tastes and likes though. If she likes her new look ultimately that is what matters.

 

[Bad News Booty]

I dug her look a lot I thought it was great personally

I would of preferred her to win too but with Cora they may be building up to something big with those 3 and Steph. Gonna be exciting for sure. The Punk stuff was meh to me personally.
And I have no idea what the black culture talk is about. Are we racist cuz we don’t like shitty rap? Weird cuz I love good rap…. I’m confused
Oh well

yeah that comment was way out of pocket. Especially coming from a mod. Would be awesome if they didn't antagonize people for no reason lol
