I was definitely surprised when EY got color

Especially when you hear stories of Vince fining Batista $100K for blading. The fine obviously won't be that extensive but was it worth it?

 

[Crippler]

Vince ain't watching weekly nXt, so TripsGOD can do whatever the fuck he wants

 

[Shane]

Triple H misses the attitude era so this is his comeuppance

NXT preview, April 26, 2017: Tyler Bate to face Jack Gallagher's sporting challenge

Twenty-year-old prodigy Tyler Bate puts up the WWE United Kingdom Championship against Gentleman Jack Gallagher tonight on WWE Network. Can the wunderkind match the prowess of one of WWE’s top Cruiserweights?

Who is the United Kingdom’s premier grappler?

Expect a wrestling showcase for the ages when WWE United Kingdom Champion Tyler Bate and Gentleman Jack Gallagher square off for the title. Two noble sportsmen who also happen to be world-class tacticians, Bate and Gallagher share similarities that extend well beyond country of origin. As such, it’s little surprise they’ve exhibited great mutual respect.

Will the story be the same, however, when they lock up inside the yellow ropes? Long established as a threat in Raw’s Cruiserweight division, Gallagher is hungry to score his first WWE championship, while the sensational Bate appears willing to go the distance to continue his reign.

Will the competitive fire torch whatever sense of sportsmanship exists now? And just how many tendon-stretching, muscle-tearing holds and counter-holds will be on display in what is sure to be a captivating game of one-upmanship?

Has Andrade “Cien” Almas committed a party foul?

When it comes to life as an NXT Superstar, Andrade “Cien” Almas and Drew McIntyre clearly take different approaches.

It seems Almas has grown charmed by the allure of celebrity nightlife, and if eyewitness reports are to be believed, “Cien” now spends more time partying in clubs than training in the ring. In contrast, McIntyre has been observed dutifully issue a challenge to McIntyre last week matters not; the gauntlet was thrown down, and when the two universally acclaimed Superstars battle tonight, the fruits of their labor will be revealed.

Aleister Black returns to action

Rarely has a Superstar emitted an aura of dominance like Aleister Black has. A win against Andrade Almas in his NXT debut at TakeOver: Orlando sent notice that a new world-beater had arrived, and his second match, a one-kick knockout against Corey Hollis, underscored that point in the most severe way imaginable.

With the NXT Universe fascinated by his every move, Black makes his highly anticipated return to action this week. Will the scary-intense Superstar continue his ascendency? Find out when NXT streams tonight at 8/7 C on the award-winning WWE Network.
