This reaction right here is gold, if he turns heel off this, that would be a great entry point, especially with who he touches in this video, a feud with Kassius Ohno? Chris Hero himself? The cursing/bleeping is absolutely hysterical. Great post-segment.

A Heel angry belligerent Hideo is best Hideo lol

Hope this continues.

Damn you, White Rope, I was about to make a thread :mj2

Hideo on the warpath killing everyone in his way only to have a HERO step up and attempt to stop him, sounds fucking AMAZING. They'll tear the house down at Brooklyn :mark:

Also, Hero teased this in his farewell speech when he said Hideo was heathy and he couldn't wait to "kick that asshole in the face" I hope that means this has been planned for months and we get an incredible feud out of it

YOU JUST REMINDED ME, THE ROPES WERE WHITE AGAIN but they're white every show...I forgot to blame the womens match on the white ropes.

Triple H can try to tell me he can book a better show with white ropes than Vince can. NO HUNTER, EVEN YOUR SHOWS WILL GET HURT BY THE WHITE ROPES IN SOME WAY. YOUR TALENT DOESN'T MAKE YOU IMMUNE, HUNTER! THE WHITE ROPE CRAPPINESS HAS TO GO SOMEWHERE ON THE CARD! :ayoade

If the ropes were Yellow I bet the shows would be perfect. Or if you only screw up one match per card, all you have to do is add one yellow rope and it will remove the one bad match. That's all you need :sasha3

 

[Martins]

Goddamn, now that's a proper post-match segment.

This doesn't really even need to signify a heel turn at all; guy just came off an injury after spending a long time on the shelf, finally gets the Title match he deserved, loses it, and should obviously be seething after it.

Should keep him in rage-mode, just give him 5 minutes to absolutely beat the piss outta some random jobber on the next episode of NXT and I'll be happy :brock4

 

[DGenerationMC]

Hideo's finally starting to get his old "KENTA" edge back.

Took long enough.

 

[Chris JeriG.O.A.T]

Lol first time I've ever enjoyed Hideo.

 

[They LIVE]

Da fuck does Ohno think he's doing?

He wasn't even on the show!

 

[The Reaper]

Send the guy to 205 live already honestly I do not want to see a rematch I would much rather have a Roode/Mcintyre match. Guy is 180 pounds, at least his name would give some recognition to 205 live.

 

[THE MAN.THE MYTH.THE SHIV.THE END.]

Awesome. I loved his passion and intensity. It's about time someone got frustrated after a tough loss. I def. care more about the loss when a wrestler does too.I want raging Hideo to start kicking peoples' heads in. A feud with Ohno could be great.

 

[IceTheRetroKid]

Lol first time I've ever enjoyed Hideo.

It kind of breaks the cycle I'm not into with NXT, I kinda don't like that almost EVERY major indy or international sensation that gets imported to NXT starts off babyface (thanks Owens for being different). So when one of them tries to do something heelish I go "thank god, somebody is stepping up to the plate to be the foil".

 

[OptionZero]

Wish the next takeover card weren't fucking AUGUST

Can you imagine if they saved all the builds from tonight for Brooklyn?

Gargano v Ciampa
Ohno v Itami
Riot v Cross

Thats three non title singles feuds worthy of 15 minute matches right there

 

[Jay Valero]

I wonder how many guys would normally be in the locker room at that point in the card?

 

[Genking48]

Asuka getting cocky, Hideo getting frustrated.

Actual development of characters that isn't just shock a heel turn but actually takes time so it happens organically :trips5

 

[Firefromthegods]

Fantastic. Perfect reaction to have. For a guy like McIntyre not so much as his had an easy nxtrun. But for a guy like hideo whose been injured for ages, has finally stayed healthy long enough to receive a opportunity absolutely perfect reaction

 

[maxninepower]

Now just let him slap regal in the face for Heel heat.

 

[chrispepper]

Takeover Brooklyn could be REALLY great. Feels like a real turning point for NXT is happening atm, and it's getting back to its peak.

We could have:
Roode/Strong
Ciampa/Gargano
Ohno/Itami
Asuka/Moon
Dunne/Bate II
Tag Match
And then some sort of match for Black and McIntyre :mark:

 

[DetroitRiverPhx]

I had an inkling that the HHH phone conference/presser was kayfabe in the comments directed at Hideo.

If only he'd come out and say "I tried it Hunter's way, WWE's way. Now I do it my way - KENTA's way! Hideo Itami is dead".

 

[CMPunkRock316]

Think Itami is OK but after hearing all this hype:

1) He invented the GTS
2) Punk botches the GTS
3) Then Itami dogs Punk on twitter and botches the GTS in Chicago LOL

 

[WalkingInMemphis]

Good stuff. :wow

There was a TON of hype about KENTA when he came into WWE/NXT, I hope they start to ratchet it up now.
