NXT - Weekly TV Show Discussion

[Grievous 3D]

Yeah. No one's talking a about it on the forum from what I can tell.

Well...I mainly talk about Dakota Kai in this thread...mainly
because she is so worth talking about.

I swear its like is the word cute became a wrestler...

For me personally I don't check wrestling news sites anymore...
& generally try to avoid spoilers...although I did just have most
of the 2nd Mae Young Classic spoiled for me by looking up
Evolution on Wikipedia...because the Mae Young Classic final
is on that very pay per view.

The NXT UK Women's Championship will be defended at Evolution...
so I was going to wait till then to see the belt...hell...I don't even know
who the NXT UK Women's Champion is...& I'm trying to keep it that
way.

Hopefully its as awesome as the men's because that belt is my
personal favorite of all the WWE titles...with the incredibly sexy
North American title a close second.

I use to follow wrestling more closely...but to be honest...I had to take
a step back & be more "relaxed" with how I observe it.

Being a wrestling fan can be very, VERY frustrating & I have to remain
somewhat detached these days.

Hell...I nearly quit wrestling & this place entirely not too long ago through
sheer frustration.

Many people on this forum don't follow NXT and there is an NXT UK thread.

But NXT is for the smarkier crowds and that's what wrestling forums are made of lol.

And I saw the NXT UK thread after my original post lol.

 

[Grievous 3D]

But NXT is for the smarkier crowds

I still don't understand the term "Smark" &
if its a negative or positive title to be given.

Is it seen as stupid & lame to actually care
about wrestling?

Should all the fans simply sit there smelling
their own farts while rolling their eyes & stating:
"Don't work yourself into a shoot"

I just don't understand...

I want to care & be invested in the WWE product
the same way I care & am invested in other fictional
media I follow like Attack on Titan & Game of Thrones...
but its like I look like a moron for caring or having a
strong opinion about wrestling.

Its like the less you care the more of a fan you are...
it literally makes my mind bleed thinking about it.

I like NXT...its a classic case of "less is more" & the
story telling is incredibly solid & focused...unlike the
main roster where elements just seem to change from
week to week.

I guess if enjoying actual wrestling matches & caring
about the performers overall in ring skills instead of
how well they can recite dialogue & look hot in short
shorts...then label me a "Smark" I guess.

It is basic it is actual wrestling, not the bs you see on the main roster because apparently, people love to complain about wrestling shows with no wrestling, but when they are given one they hate it.

I still don't understand the term "Smark" & if its a negative or positive title to be given.

Smark uses to mean a Smart Mark, meaning you "knew" everything about Professional Wrestling like how it was fake, scripted, etc. It is a negative name. Now it is used by everybody to insult Indy/Mexico/Japanese wrestling fans like fans of Joe, Nakamura, Asuka, Kai, etc. Who think that they deserve a push because of their time and skill in the Indy as well as being an insult for anyone who actually enjoys wrestling and wants it to improve and not be shit, unlike Marks who just take whatever and defend dumb shit or criticize Indy or whatver style of wrestling even though they have never watched a bit of it, and hate when a show or something is actual wrestling and not the bubblegum shit like WWE. Also, it is just used to be a cool kid when really they are just being an idiot themselves. Plus, a Smark and even a Mark tend to think "the Attitude Era" was the best thing ever sliced bread.

Oh...I guess I'm a smark then...

& fucking proud to be one.

 

[Grievous 3D]

I know this is kind of random...and I actually still like NXT as
a product...

but...

Lacey Evans' finisher is really starting to piss me off.

I have always hated these "One Punch" finishers in
wrestling...unless brass knuckles are being used.

 

[Jay-Ashley]

So...Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir have made their official NXT debut at a house show...anyone else hyped about this? Or is it just me?

I guess it will be interesting to see how they fit into the grand scheme of things...

I'm also curious to see where Shayna ends up after Evolution...

From what I saw, they fit in pretty good. The match was Jessamyn, Shayna, and Marina vs Io, Kairi, and Dakota, and it was a pretty good match. If anything Jessamyn and Marina will be like a Juggernaut type character, you know, they go in kick ass and walk out. As for Shayna, I would like to see go to the main roster, mainly Smackdown, because I think they have done everything they can with her down in NXT, and a match between her and Becky could be good.

Wow...that sounds like a fantasy match you booked...lol.

Isn't Jessamyn or Marina incredibly tall with ridiculously LONG legs?

I saw a photo once & my jaw hit my desk.

I actually think SDL will get Nikki Cross & RAW will get Shayna...
mainly because she's friends with Ronda of course.

Shayna vs. Becky...yeah...that could work...

:emoji_thinking:

I'd actually really like to see a Ronda vs. Shayna main roster title match...
I mean...I'd be really curious to see how far they would go.

Who knows...they may start building to that match at Evolution?

I know I would if I was in charge of booking.

Haha, you are funny. Jessamyn is the really tall one and is basically an Amazon, and would be considered my Amazon Queen, you know.

Eh, I could see that and if they continue the storyline of The Bellas attacking Ronda and such we may eventually have Brie vs Shayna, which will be hilarious, and Ronda vs Nikki round 2. Eh, Shanya vs Rondy would just be another friend vs friend feud and by this point, I am tired of those.

 

[Grievous 3D]

Haha, you are funny.

And telling the truth...

Jessamyn is the really tall one and is basically an Amazon

Nice...

and would be considered my Amazon Queen, you know.

I can respect that...

I mean you're wrong...but I respect your opinion.

There is only one true Amazon Queen in the WWE my friend.

Eh, I could see that

Yeah...because the WWE main roster
is as predictable as a bus schedule.

Have I told you today that I hate you? How am I wrong? Jessamyn > Charlotte @me, mate. Eh, I guess so, man.

 

[Grievous 3D]

Have I told you today that I hate you?

Nope...but its okay...

I know you secretly don't.

:thumbsup:

Jessamyn > Charlotte

Stop doing cocaine Seth...

Its effecting your brain in terrible ways.

;P
