The go-home show for TO: Toronto was decent.

Liv/Peyton and the post-match stuff was OK. I guess we're going to see a 6-Woman tag at TakeOver.

Skimmed through The Drifter BS. The way Graves shits on him is hilarious, though.

Andrade vs Alexander was a good ME and the highlight of the show. Damn, heel Andrade is the best Andrade.

I marked so hard for this:

Anyways, looking forward to TakeOver: Toronto this Saturday!

This week's show was OK, I guess.

Nakamura vs Joe was short and disappointing, definitely their weakest match of the three.

This week's show was decent. It was heavily focused on the NXT title and the Fatal 4-Way match to determine the #1 contender next week.

Nakamura vs Joe was solid, but disappointing, just like their match in Japan. Hopefully this is it for Joe in NXT and he debuts at the Rumble!

The qualifying matches for next week's Fatal 4-Way were all short, but decent.

And, they set up Billie vs Daria for next week.

Also, what's Percy Watson doing on commentary? I don't mind the guy, but he brings absolutely nothing to the table. Graves and Phillips are perfect. There's no need for another announcer.

Next week should be better. We're getting Roode/Strong/Almas/Tye and DIY/The Revival.

Yeah I feel like the Steel Cage match closed the deal on Shinsuke & Joe's series as well as Joe's time in NXT, he should definitely be called up for the Rumble.

As for the Fatal 4 Way, who do you think will be the next to challenge Shinsuke for the NXT straps? I'd say Tye or Roode at this point but hey, I'm always up for a WWE swerve at any time ;)

It'll be Roode. Tye should be heading to the main roster along with Joe.

The absolute highlight was the ME. It was a pretty good match.

Another great show by the NXT guys. The main event was very good. I was hoping for a Dillinger win, but deep down i knew it would be Roode. I'm a fan of Roode aswell, so im ok with him winning.

Didn't think they'd show it on the Network, either. So, thank you, Papa Hunter. :hhh2:

They might've set a precedent with this one.. now we're going to expect all the special live overseas events to be shown to us at some point some people will make a fuss if they don't get future showings.

Personally, I'm content we're getting four TakeOvers per year.

And if some people wanna act like spoiled brats for not getting everything they want, then too bad for 'em. :dealwithit:

The final NXT show of the year was solid.

Lorcan vs Almas was good, the women's tag was OK, #DIY vs Tajiri & Tozawa was very good and MOTN, Asuka vs Nia and Nakamura vs Joe were both solid, but disappointing.
