Yeah, it was supposed to be Liv and a mystery partner vs. Zelina and Carmella, didn't even get a dark match. Cena/Mysterios vs. Roman/Usos was the dark match.


WWE had a chance to showcase one of their own who lost her dad on 9/11 on the 20th anniversary to the world and they cut her out of the show. :smh:
 
I like Riho and I honestly can't explain why :lol:
She looks like a little girl in the ring and like she shouldn't be there, but she comes off well on TV and has a nice-looking cross body from the top rope.
I want to change the channel whenever she's on screen. I just cannot take anything that 80 lb waif does in the wrestling ring seriously.

That whole young Japanese schoolgirl look of hers creeps me out. Japanophiles love that shit though.

She plays up the adorable school girl vibe which works to her advantage. The fanbase gets behind her because she sells extremely well, knows how to work and it is a lovable babyface. Doesn't matter to me that she's 90 lbs. This isn't real combat it's professional wrestling. If this was real Nyla Rose would be running through the whole division and never be beaten.

In her hometown nonetheless! Had that been someone of a fairer complexion the whole damn show would have been dedicated to her and her white ass father.
 
Seems like a work.. if true though, Joe needs to hang up his wrestling boots.

Samoa Joe relinquishes NXT Championship....

I am interested to see her as a heel. I know her English isn't all that great, but her as a 90lbs heel has me curious.
 
I feel like the schoolgirl shot on Riho is from those who don't watch Joshi Puroresu (Japanese women's wrestling). Her outfit looks nothing like a schoolgirl's and is in similar taste of today's joshi's. I think the pink and frilly look throws some people off. As far as her size, while I don't think bigger opponents should be selling her punches as much as they do. She's the same size as Alexa Bliss, who be knocking bitches out with one punch and holding titles for months.

Yeah, this smells like bullshit to me. Joe doesn't fit in with the new NXT so they have him drop the belt suddenly because of an "injury".
 


This thread was interesting. A couple of butt hurt people in there, who for some reason keep wishing for WWE to be this pure wrestling company. When Vince has said over and over again he's about brand domination and making that money.
 
I'm interested to see everyone's favorites on this. List your top 3 favorite all-time male wrestlers separated by gimmick/character and workrate/in-ring. Mine would be ...

Gimmick/character
1. Ric Flair
2. Undertaker
3. Bruiser Brody

Honorable mention: Vader, Razor Ramon, Road Warriors, Mankind, Dusty Rhodes, Nikita Koloff


Workrate/In-ring
1. The Great Muta ( Keiji Muto)
2. Jushin "Thunder" Liger
3. Eddie Guerrero

Honorable mention: Chris Benoit, Bret Hart, Chris Jericho, Mitsuharu Misawa, Shawn Michaels
 
Hate to see Lashley lose the title….not mad it was against Big E.

Hope Big E would drop the shucking and jiving shit though and be a serious champion. Don’t want to see a repeat of Kofi’s run….
Happy for Big E, but it seems a bit forced starting with them promoting the fact he would cash it in tonight.
The whole point of cashing it in is that it's a surprise.
Looks like they were just trying to pop a rating tonight with having the Orton and Lashley match on Raw rather than at Extreme Rules.
