Who will be the fourth member of team Flying Skateboards Got Back? Absolute lottery. Jade being in there kind of necessitates a singles babyface, whereas if they had taken her out, you could have just slotted in the raver lesbians and called it a day. As it is, the only options on short notice would be Sarray (who is back in Japan at the moment for some reason), picking someone from the tag teams like Hartwell or Pirotta or Catanzaro or Carter, or someone even more green than those actually in the match now. It's likely going to be KLR. She had a staredown with Toxic Attraction in the aisle, Mandy talked crap about her in that parking lot promo afterwards, and they brought it up a potential conflict between KLR and Toxic Attraction in the Lash Legend segment so it's obviously something they want you to keep an eye on. I know she's a heel but they'll let her on team because "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" card all the while they and the announcers wonder "can she be trusted!". It would be kind of similar to Nikita in 1992 or Luger (who filled in for Vader who they had been doing the same angle with before he was fired) in 1995 in the build up to those wargames. |

But instead of Shirai, it should have been William Regal screaming War Games. Maybe Io burned Regal's clothes in a barrel and absorbed his powers. |

I鈥檓 guessing either KLR or Sarray will be the fourth member of Team Io.
Also Io is 0-2 in WG matches so far BTW.

That Women's War Games is going to be a disaster, I can't wait. I just hope nobody gets injured or dies (I'm looking at you, Jacy) 99% of this worry is Jayne, let鈥檚 be honest. Nobody鈥檚 questioning Shirai or Kai, Rose and Gonzalez are average but are rarely actively bad, and Dolin and Jade are green but have yet to really have that notable slip up. Assuming KLR is the fourth woman on the face team it actually doesn't look bad at all. Io and KLR are both great workers, Dakota is good; and Raquel, Mandy, and Gigi are all solid. Really the only question marks are going to be Cora and Jacy. Cora has looked really sloppy and has yet to prove she can work more then a three minute match where just gets beat up the whole time and wins with a roll up. Jacy shows flashes of being decent but for the most part is also really sloppy and has had some really bad botches. If they book those two to enter late it will probably be ok. Presumably both would have to come in third for their respective teams as that would be the latest both could possibly enter without either having to be let down final entrants as neither are big enough in star power or physically to be in the "clean up" spot of coming in last for a team. Also I'm sure they'll have rehearse a lot and go over it quite a bit before the show so it won't come off as sloppy with weak looking strikes like it did during that brawl tonight. |

The Women鈥檚 war games match should be fun. I miss Regal though.
The Poker segment entertained me for some reason. Maybe because I鈥檝e played poker before. Duke getting bent out of shape for one poker hand had me laughing. Grimes is a surprisingly decent player by the looks of that hand.
Greyson Waller baffles me. Is this guy supposed to be a face he isn鈥檛 likeable at all. He basically said he doesn鈥檛 want to work hard at all as a wrestler. Like how is anyone supposed to get behind him as a face?
Tony D needs more time on the show but him getting a win was good.
That Kacy/Kayden promo really really needed to read the room. Yes I like music and music festivals but was this really the week for this? Also I don鈥檛 see how this is going to get them over as faces anyway. We like music! Er cool so do most living humans.
Ciampa鈥檚 promo was great before he got cut off by Breakkkker. This guy is an actual face people.
Dunne v Melo v Gargano should be great. Trick鈥檚 promo was predictably complete shit though.
Where is Jones v Diamond Mine going? What does Jones have to gain from this? He can鈥檛 be Cruiserweight champ this is all pointless!!!
Escobar is back thankfully but he鈥檚 getting battered by Quinn you just know it. Electra鈥檚 acting was pretty awful here as well.
GYV are thief鈥檚 now. Vince knows Liverpool stereotypes now doesn鈥檛 he?
Von Wagner, KOR, Briggs & Jensen all in one match?! Do they want people to stick with this shit? Von Wagner as Adam Pearce鈥檚 bodyguard could actually be fine if he鈥檚 just that. If he gets a super push out of it鈥onestly this guy needs a reboot completely.
Lash Legend is a waste of time.
Gacy wanting to join Diamond Mine or does he want Haaland in it? Anyway interesting development.
Kai v Gonzalez was a pretty decent match.
Where was Solo Sikoa this week? You have room for Lash Legend, Waller, Briggs & Jensen, Von Wagner & a Persia squash but not this dude?

Greyson Waller baffles me. Is this guy supposed to be a face he isn鈥檛 likeable at all. He basically said he doesn鈥檛 want to work hard at all as a wrestler. Like how is anyone supposed to get behind him as a face? I think that promo was meant to be a heel turn and LA Knight鈥檚 one earlier was meant to have him leaning babyface now. |

Yeah I watched Fightful鈥檚 review and it did see that was the way they were thinking and yes that鈥檚 a much better idea. Can鈥檛 stand Waller so better he鈥檚 a heel at least. LA Knights promo did seem very faceish but I鈥檓 so used to him as a heel it just didn鈥檛 click that way. Great promo package as well. |

My boy Von Wafer-thin ham beating a bloke with BJ on his gear is what NXT 2.0 is all about.
Still hate Grayson Wally
Ciampa is still the absolute greatest at standing and getting off a chair angrily.
Barrett masturbating under the desk is amazing.
Sad to see this final run for Johnny Wrestling. I know he's had a few rough runs at times but he's been my favourite guy in NXT since it's inception with the quality of his Takeover matches. Farewell.
Duke Hudson is the f***ing worst professional poker player ever and his gimmick should really be something different every week in which he claims to be amazing at but actually f***ing sucks at. Next week he should be a professional windsurfer but gets eaten by a shark.
I was surprised how invested I was in the segment though. That should have been the worst thing on television.
Lash Legend is excruciating. So are Catanzaro and Carter.
Tony D'Angelo needs to recruit Dexter Lumis and use him as his Al Neri when Johnny goes.
Loved the Steiner math reference to Bron. I may be in the minority here but I really don't care that they're avoiding the Steiner name with him.

That was what I got as well - with Waller espousing the very things we know is the truth in WWE, so he's meant to hate appeal to the Smarks and get his heat from them for saying what they say WWE is. |

That's clearly what they are going for but I don't really get why they feel the need to go that route. Waller is just so naturally annoying and unlikeable that going down the smark bait heat route just kind of seems unnecessary and not needed. |

I like Robert Stone, but I genuinely dont understand what he is there for.
He rarely gets time to get his acts over as a manager, and even though he can wrestle, he never gets any actual serious matches either.
He's just employed, which is fine, but odd when you consider whose been cut.

Stone is literally type cast as a some hybrid man whore-manager who is a giant gawd damn curse since every woman that has been associated with him has had nothing but shitty luck following them.
Aliyah gets called up gets 1 win and then completely yanked from the SVS team
Franky/Taya released
Mercedes released
Jessi Kamea releeased
Someone better warn giant Billie Kay.
