Wrestling Thread August 15th-20th/ Tonight NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn II At 8PM Eastern/ SummerSlam This

Anyone else notice the wrestlers that were just talking with Booker & Renee sounded so much more fluid than the wrestlers that were cutting promos backstage. Kalisto & Titus O'Neil cut some cringe worthy promos.

Yea, mentioned this last night man. So true. Some folks felt comfortable vs Scripted Nonsense
 
Also I hope this not drafting Heath Slater thing leads to some big angle otherwise it was completely unnecessary.


And I think that fight between Sin Cara & Simon Gotch messed up their original plans and Kalisto came out losing in the end. I think they originally intended to put Sin Cara on Smackdown and Kalisto on Raw but then the fight happened.


The end of Breaking Ground is so sad seeing how the Draft played out. BAEley thought she'd always just have her friend Carmella around and now she's all alone :{

Wasn't Carmella sad because she thought Bayley would be getting called up before her?

Looking at the draft results, I would say the biggest issues were Kevin Owens going so low and the complete botches of drafting NXT talent.

There is also no reason to have two separate womens divisions with the roster being so thin.

you been worked if you think they didn't tell these folks ahead of time for traveling purposes, and hotel booking
Only the certified top level "valued" wrestlers were notified beforehand.

Rollins, Orton, Ambrose, Cena, Charlotte...yes. Someone like Jericho...yes.

Guys like Cesaro and ADR...no.
