Two of the people in the match could have a good match with anyone on the roster, one of them is a very solid motherfucker. The other is Johnny Curtis. He couldn't stop the inevitable. Interesting to see the roles reversed for the tag finisher though. Gabriel's usually the one holding the victim for their Hart Attack vatiation.
Agreed.
I wouldn't. NXT Redemption was directionless and repetitive with no driving focus and the same shit being played out again and again. Didn't help that the featured players aren't very good.
It's not working because he's shit.

Question, have you seen any of his matches outside of WWE?

Why would I watch his matches outside WWE? I hate the indie style of wrestling, and Ohno is crap. I am not going to watch a guy who I already dislike wrestle a style I already dislike because the end result will be a match I don't like. |

Re: Official NXT Weekly TV Show Discussion Thread
It was really cool to see guys at the top talking about the NXT title and really putting it over, made it seem at least somewhat more important.

Oh lol where did you come from?
Fine, have a different opinion, but NXT:Redemption (once the competition thing ended) was the best part of 2011 in WWE...
O.K., after The Summer of Punk.

If you're a fan of irrelevance, pointlessness, shitty wrestlers and matches that have been done and done again it was. For those who don't no, it wasn't. This NXT has blown redemption out of the water. |

Really? I've seen a LOT of repetitive matches on this NXT already. From about October of last year, Redemption was miles above anything else the WWE was doing, and definitely better than this version. This NXT is just starting to do anything, and there's been very little to that bit of getting started. I'd go so far as to say that current NXT still hasn't even caught up with FCW in any area that doesn't involve main roster guys being better in ring performers (for the most part) than the FCW crew.
Much of the Redemption roster is carrying new NXT right now anyway, at least from an in-ring standpoint. They still haven't put on any matches that are even close to some of the stuff that Redemption put out there. |

Re: Official NXT Weekly TV Show Discussion Thread
Just watched this weeks show, and I'm loving Hero's new intensity. It really works for him in his matches. I think he should add a couple suplexes that land on the neck to add to his gimmick and provide variety in his moveset. His promo work seems to still be lacking a bit though, which sucks because I want to see the chris hero from ROH instead of a semi nervous watered down kassius ohno.

Hero needs to grow some muscles and not a beard if he wants to make it into this business

He also needs to improve his mic skills and workrate. I came in with an open mind, but man, has he been horrible so far.
