Holy f***. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}
First of all, f*** YEAH! TEAM THICK!!! We finally found out just how thick they really are. I've been in the BAM circlejerk since summer. Hell yeah... So glad to see them win. So awesome to hear Norman Smiley described Blake as the purest in-ring talent he's ever seen.
Also.... The start of Tyson's entrance.... SOLOMON f***ING CROWE!!!! HACKER GIMMICK IS BACK!!!!!! Yes!!!! Now, go back to the Danzig look and not the one-piece women's swimsuit, please and thank you.
Boy,they are building up steam to the next PPV! |

On to the actually show.
#BAM out first. Time for a changing of the guard hopefully.
Alberts bad mouthing BAM when the Lucha Dragons had less time and maybe one more win when they got their title shot.
Sin Cara is amazing. Wish he had gotten this chance as Hunico.
NEW CHAMPS! BAM! Brains > Flippy shit!
Charlotte still seems like she is reading lines at times.
And she still sucks as a face.
CROWE WARNING?
Kidd busting out a baseball slide head scissors!
THAT POWERBOMB! HOLY BROKEN NECKS CATMAN!
Who the hell is the new interview dipshit?
Team BAE being interviewed by the camera guy? Okay
Still not sold on Becky Lynch.
Amazing how even as main roster failures, the Ascension are still treated as God Tier in NXT and that is used to put people over. I mean listen to #BAM hype up the Lucha Dragons as the team to do what no one else could and they took them down. Great stuff.
Nice to see Bayley back.
Poor Team BAE. This is an absolute asswhipping.
I'll give it a day or two but I expect .giffing of Sasha's Wacky Waiving Inflatable Flailing Arm Tube Men impersonation.
So one partner accidentally hits the other and the match comes to a grinding halt for them to brawl?
Hideo heel turn? Sounds good to me.
Emma demoted? Heel turn? Interesting.
Man I cannot wait for Baron Corbin: NXT Champion, whether out of this or on down the line.
The more I see Bull the more I like him but it is still not enough to make me want to see him or think he'll be a success.
You know, for as much as I want Corbin as champ, I kinda wish they had these two brawl out of the building and built to a street fight between them
Not bad on the mic for Baron. Love him pie facing Bull.
Contract signing time. Table looks nice and sturdy.
You know, Owens really has Zayn and Regal over a barrel. This could be interesting.
Love Owens theme. It is no "Unsettling Differences" but it is damn good.
Tons of KO shirts in the crowd.
Regal laying down the law nice.
There we go, tell it like it is Kevin. I love the face reasoning for his heel actions.
See, Owens has 2 matches and but his actions, his challenge still gets the face to give him a title shot. From the dawn of time....

So mad the jobber team won the belts after the Vaudevillains failed twice, this almost makes me as sad as Reigns. I don't read spoilers so I'm hoping we get a three way/six man tag at the next live show where the Vaudevillains win the belts. SIGH

I really don't get how this Corbin vs. Bull feud is shaping up...
Corbin beat him soundly twice in a row... that's kinda the end of the story...

are they still "fast-tracking" Kalisto to the main roster? I remember that the rumored reason for being paired with El Local and then Sin Cara was to help speed up the process since they wanted him to be the main roster's masked star.

Murphy and Blake won. Whoa! That was shocking. I like it. Kalisto is incredible, btw. Oh and Buddy Murphy is an ugly mofo. That was the first time I really took a good look at him.
I like how perfectly placed the t-shirts are in the locker room during the backstage segment. Buy this Macho Man shirt! I know they've dont this forever, but it really stood out to me tonight for some reason.
Holy shit wtf was that glitchy thing that played before Tyson Kidd came out. We might need to freeze frame that one to break this code. I saw the word "solution." Hmmmmmm...
Adrian Neville is an amazing athlete. I'm in awe of him. I don't think I could do any of the moves that he does. Hell I can barely touch my toes, I'm ashamed to admit, but that's another story.
Ugh, they aired a commercial for WWE Immortals in the middle of the match. Annoying. That game looks like poo poo.
Great showcase match for Adrian Neville. He needed that. Great performance by him. It was just full of highlight reel moves.
So many KO shirts in the crowd. I like it.
Sasha and Becky are so both so attractive. I love this team, even if they're nothing alike.
Damn Bailey and Charlotte are going at it! For the record, I pick Charlotte as the Diva most likely to suffer an embarrising wardrobe malfuntion someday.
Is Emma turning heel? I'm not a fan of hers so I really have nothing nice to say about that.
I wish they'd bring in Crimson and job him out to Baron Corbin.
Neville vs. Corbin is very intriguing. I look forward to that for sure.
Bull Dempsey: "You got lucky twice." Legit LOL
Man Dempsey has really been punked out lately. I wonder if he might interfere in Corbin's next match. Hmmmm.
The crowd at Takeover is going to be insane for the Zayn/Owens match. I can't wait.
That was the best contract signing ever. And they did it with no physicality. Amazing. I love NXT.

Jesus, the number of idiots on Facebook who think Team Thick/#BAM are the VaudeVillians is disturbingly high.

Jesus, the number of idiots on Facebook who think Team Thick/#BAM are the VaudeVillians is disturbingly high. And people here wonder why they repeat and recap everything on the main shows... When you're getting this...   ...confused with this...   ...then quite frankly, it's a miracle you can operate a television. |

I like that Regal's approach as GM is to try and avoid RAW things happening on his show.
As for Bull Dempsey, that poor lad is like Vader's Over The Edge promo in human form.

HECK YES SOLOMON CROWE. #CAWCAWCAW
Really enjoyed Neville and Kidd, and by god that powerbomb, most vicious one by a smaller man I've seen since Chris Benoit in WCW.
Not crazy about Dempsey still wanting to feud with Corbin despite being beaten in a combined two or three minutes.
Would have hoped the Divas tag would have had a finish, but I do like Bayley's role here as a more agressive shit-stirrer. Can't wait to see Becky and Sasha come to blows.
As for the main event segment, Regal was golden bring up traditional contract signing tropes, and Owens is clearly built up as NXT's Lesnar as the prize fighter who doesn't actually hate Zayn, he just wants the title. Two weeks can't come soon enough.

The weekly NXT episodes have had better matches in these first few weeks of NXT than the entirety of 2014. Adrian and Tyson had a great match, better than Itami/Balor last week, and even the tag title match was fun.
Interesting about Emma. I don't like that they'd just shrug their shoulders and send her back down since they're the ones who failed her but we'll see if it even goes anywhere.
As a WWE fan, I'm used to things being fairly black and white and this Owens/Zayn feud is the exact opposite of that. I can only imagine this story is just beginning because it's already so rich and yet still needs the to properly expressed. Kevin and Sami are acting like former lovers and if Kevin is going to continue to insist that it's not personal, when it clearly is, my headcannon is just going to be that they are in fact former lovers and that it ended quite badly when Zayn wasn't willing to come out of the closet.
...It's one reading. I like that the feud is tense. I like that Sami, more and more, is seeming like a little kid who can't face this particular bully. But I hope that the writers can manage to elaborate on Kevin's POV without losing all nuance.

Awesome show, as per usual. I was worried Sunday was gonna affect my enjoyment of anything WWE related and it did at first because I struggled to get interested in the tag title match but as soon as Neville/Kidd started kicking it into a high gear I was right back into loving NXT. They killed it out there with a great match and aside from my weekly 'skip Baron Corbin's segment' bit the rest of the show was great. The pinnacle of course being the contract signing which, somehow, without any physical contact told more of a story than most standard contract signings ever do.

I dont really understand Alex Riley on commentary. He has been going on about how Balor and Itami havent proved themselves and how they dont impress him, yet he was constanlty putting over Blake and Murphy saying that they are two of the best talents in NXT and work harder than anyone. It doesnt make sense for him to keep bashing Balor and (mainly) Itami if it isnt leading anywhere

Is Buddy Murphy the first Australian to win a title in the WWE? And only two days after Australia Day at that!
#BAM are just awesome!
