WWE NXT REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS Let’s talk NXT..2.0! Cora x Raquel in Disarray NXT, I have several bones to pick with you. Your initial main event of the night, Cora Jade & Raquel González vs. Toxic Attraction, made sense. The champ’s two partners soften up her opponents before their triple threat match. Cool. For undisclosed reasons, Gigi Dolin & Jacy Jayne weren’t around this week. We can speculate as to why but we won’t. Bottomline, NXT needed a plan B. I’m sympathetic to that and understand. If 2020 and 2021 taught us anything, it’s the value of plan B. Or plan Z in some cases. But why is that plan to put Cora and Raquel against Kay Lee Ray and Io Sharai with their title shots on the line? And by that, I mean why would Raquel and Cora agree to that? I needed to see the work here. I needed to see why these two women, who fought their asses off mind you, are suddenly cool with this stipulation. This is when an authority figure like, oh, I don’t know, William Regal, comes in handy. There needs to be someone forcing someone else to do things they don’t want to do but have to do. Or else. And I really don’t need to go into the “or else’s” at this point. As it stands, Mandy Rose made the match and her two challengers bent the knee to her will. For basketball reasons? The match itself was fine! It wasn’t anything to write home or anywhere else about, but it showed why all four women belong in a championship match. The ending though is where things got sloppy and weird. Raquel hits her finisher and the momentum backs her into Cora, constituting a tag in the ref’s eyes. They argue, they bicker, until Raquel tosses a high-flying Io out of the ring. Cora pins KLR but only gets a two count. The problem here is Raquel was late on the breakup. From what I saw, NXT, you wanted Big Mami Cool to break up the two count and get into a shoving match with her partner. Instead, she was a second late and things got discombobulated. And after all that, KLR, a future contender for the title, or so I thought, takes the clean pin to KLR anyway. Why her? Io can take a pin at this point, she’s freaking Io Sharai. Her crew is solid enough. So why not let her? But then again, maybe you want Io back in the title picture. I’m not mad at that, just confused a bit. Post-match, while Cora and Raquel are still arguing, Mandy appears via poolside, informing her opponents that this was her plan all along. Cue maniacal laugh. Mandy says their collective obsession over her title will be their undoing. She also wants her words marked. To which I say, duh. We already know this part of the story. Cora and Raquel formed an uneasy alliance at best, with both women making it clear as crystal the NXT Women’s Championship is all that matters. So, help me out NXT. To be fair, I’m sure this wasn’t the plan when the day started. Plans change, right? So a modicum of slack is cut for getting over the finish line at all. That said, the narrative behind the match along with the finish left me more than a tad puzzled. This ends my bone-picking session. Thank you for listening. The Rest S-C-I-N-T-I-L-L-A-T-I-N-G Malcolm Blevins figured Carmelo Hayes can’t spell “scintillating” in one of the many hilarious side comments during the contract signing. Melo and Trick Williams were fashionably late as Malcolm and the Diamond Mine looked ready for war. Trick came out talking a lot of slang that Roderick Strong didn’t understand, leaving the Diamond Mine manager to interpret for him and the audience at home. Hilarious. For a second, it looked like a contract signing might end peacefully. But then Blevins remembered this is professional sports entertainment. Blevins got underneath Trick’s skin, causing the big man with eight abs, three chains, two women, and two feet to overstep his bounds. The cats in the Mine didn’t like that, and the Brothers Creed powerbombed Trick through a table. Phenomenal Attention Grayson Waller, easily the cat with the most heat on the brand at the moment, ran his mouth. Odyssey Jones came out to shut it, but unfortunately couldn’t quite get the job done. Waller cheated of course, but a W is a W for the clout-chasing Waller. Fun match and Waller continues his job as the brand’s main heat magnet. So why phenomenal? AJ Styles made an appearance via the NXT-tron, stating Grayson will get all of his attention at New Year’s Evil, one-on-one. Total Eclipse of the Heart Solo Sikoa got a huge W over Santos Escobar. How? Two words: Xyon Quinn. Quinn didn’t interfere, but his pursuit of one Elektra Lopez is really getting under Escobar’s skin. The only reason we got this match is because Escobar was in his feelings and got extra aggy when Solo accidentally interrupted LDF’s conversation. Escobar needed someone to aim his frustration at, and he almost had it right. But Xyon showed up, Escobar lost focus, and Solo remains undefeated. Good match with the right finish as the wheels keep tightening with this story of family vs. love. Shaman x The General Let’s skip through all the talk: Riddle is joining MSK to fight Imperium—including WALTER—at New Year’s Evil. That is all. Chasing a Nightmare Remember last week when Brian Kendrick challenged Harland? Of course you do. If not, I just reminded you. Well, yeah, that didn’t happen. We didn’t get a reason, but we did get Andre Chase stepping in for another “teachable moment.” Problem is, Chase was the one getting a lesson in that it hurts when your head is repeatedly banged against the mat. The ref stopped the match and Harland, that psycho. got the W. One of Chase U’s star pupils came to the ring to save their lead administrator, but, to quote Arnold Schwarzenegger in Jingle All the Way, he picked the wrong day. Harland knocked him out and carried him to the back and for a second, looked ready to throw him off of the Performance Center’s roof. Gacy talked him down and Harland won’t get arrested for murder. At least not tonight. Dinner at Tiffany’s After weeks and weeks, NXT finally sent Stratton. Tiffany Stratton got her first NXT victory, dominating Fallon Henley. I like Stratton’s persona as the “Buff Barbie” thing might have legs in NXT. The match itself wasn’t much to write home about, with a couple rough spots. Emphasis on a couple because it wasn’t anything worth damning her out of the company. Hopefully she gets some mic time to further that persona while she works on some of the in-ring stuff. Von’s Payback? Von Wagner is mad he lost to Edris Enofé last week. This week, Wagner took out his frustration on Malik Black. Black is apparently a friend of Enofé’s, so I get the “why” of it. The match was okay, but something about Wagner still isn’t clicking for me. Enofé came to his friend’s rescue once Wagner looked ready to get extra dirty after the ding ding, so a larger feud between these two is on the horizon. The New Year’s Evil go home show was solid. A LOT happens on this show in two hours and it happens at a break neck pace. Even more so this week with apparently a bunch of people missing. But NXT pulled it off with the cats in attendance, so points for that. The logic of the main event is still kicking my brain, but it doesn’t sully the whole show. Plus, New Year’s Evil sounds like a lot of fun. Grade: B |
Minemrys:I get your point bro but this trailer and the first one they dropped are basically the same minus Penguin, I don't see it as them giving much away |
Minemrys:Sometimes the fun is also in the "stop comparing approaches" |
MJBOLT:Everytime you'll just drop a picture or pictures with "hmmmm" like these u23 girls that don't know how to talk ![]() |

sajmark:Di Caprio's panic face was a side amusement for me and Kate Blancett is a sexy MF |
Eke40seven:Thanks ![]() I think my List will look alot like yours with Miz a little bit higher and with Edge in there somewhere |
WWE RAW REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS Let’s talk Raw! Red (ish) Wedding Shoutout to Detroit for BOOING A WOMAN RECITING VOWS TO PROFESS HER LOVE. I loved every second of that. Never change, Detroit. But to Miz’s point, they do cheer for the Lions so, does it really matter what or whom they cheer for? Maryse & Miz renewed their vows in a ceremony officiated by Eazy Eric Bischoff. And it was glorious. The best part, besides Detroit, was Miz doing his best to recite his vows in French. Of course, he kept swinging and missing, eventually speaking Spanish to his wife. This was all setup for Edge to make an entrance, which Bischoff understood. And what celebration of love is complete without Edge’s mind games? After teasing an attack from his own wife, Edge said “nah.” Maniacal as always, Edge revealed he really wasn’t there to ruin anything. The Rated R guy just wanted to say hi and make his presence known. But yeah, that too was a double whopper of a lie. Edge asked if the happy couple planned for a white wedding—shoutout to Billy Idol—and a familiar Brood tune played in the Detroit arena. Cue the blackout, red lights, and a liquid substance that, regretfully, has more in common with black than the red from Brood Blood Baths of the past. The segment didn’t break new ground. Especially since wrestling ceremonies of this kind are very meta now since we all know an uninvited guest or two will show up. However, it reaffirmed just how awful Miz and Maryse are as people. While Edge might not be the best guy, he at least knows he ain’t sh*t. The other two really believe their own hype. Edge needed revenge for what happened last week, and this was the best moment to strike. Ultimate opportunist got an opportunity. And when I’m still not sure where this match is headed on Streets is Watching Before we get into this very dope tag match in the RK-Bronament finals, a brief word on Montez Ford. Homie is a freak. Do yourself a favor and watch this match if you missed it. One of the things you’ll see is Ford jump from the top turnbuckle to the other side of the ring and land a picture perfect Frog Splash. Montez got all of it, too. Like the matrix, one must see it to believe it. Especially since my words don’t do it justice. Okay, enough gushing. The Street Profits battled The Mysterios for a shot at RK-Bro at Day 1 (Ish). Both teams told the story that Dominik is better with his dad than without. Young Mysterio is the weak link for a team going against another team who has no weak link. Angelo Dawkins and Montez can hold their own and work beautifully together because they trust each other to hold it down when the brown stuff hits the fan. When you’re going against Rey Mysterio, a lot of brown stuff is going to hit the wall, so they were prepared. The high flying moves slowly came out to play. The teams played it relatively safe for the first few minutes, feeling each other out and—pun fully intended—learning the ropes. It’s almost as if all four men realized what was on the line and collectively shifted to another gear. Dominik can play on that gear but he can’t sustain it. He’s at a bit of a loss when his dad is out of the picture, as the ending illustrated rather perfectly. With Dawkins grounded on the outside of the ring, Rey and Dom—not that Dom—went for a 619 in stereo. But Dawkins had just enough time to recover, tripped Daddy Mysterio, leaving jr. all by his lonesome and a tad confused. Dominik’s stumbling and bumbling was the start of his ending. One Blockbuster/Doomsday Machine later, the Profits have a date with the champs. January 1, to be exact. If any team dethrones RK-Bro, it better be the Profits. The Mysterios still have a hump to get over and one wonders—one being me—what Rey plans to do about it. The Rest WWE Championship. Live via Satellite COVID ran wilder than that other guy used to back in the ‘80s. As a result, the build for the WWE championship match at Day 1 was, like most of our lives these days, done digitally. Big E was live from his home with choice words for his challengers. This is his story, not theirs. It’s about his struggle, not theirs. And he knows he needs to be himself and find his mojo. Seth Rollins, live from Chateau de Man, let Kevin Owens have all the credit for what they did to Bobby Lashley last week. Rollins doesn’t care. At the PPV, he will reign supreme. With Lashley on the sidelines and the other two men at home, MVP and Kevin Owens did their best to sell the match in front of the Detroit faithful. The word “ectomorphic” was uttered, eliciting a chuckle from me and disbelief from KO. Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin showed up, apparently realizing their Hurt Business spinoff wasn’t a thing. What did this lead to? Well, a match between Cedric and KO, of course. Bad Business Cedric and Shelton Benjamin believe Bobby Lashley is better with them than without them. To prove their point, Alexander battled KO to get in MVP’s good graces. Yeah, that didn’t happen. Cedric was in control for most of the match but ultimately looked up at the lights for three seconds. Shelton, before he got to say what was on his mind to KO, got a stunner for his troubles. Sigh. Good match but I’m crestfallen—yes, crestfallen—at whatever this thing is Cedric and Shelton are doing. Phenomenal Momentum AJ Styles needed this win over Apollo. Grayson Waller showed up in Detroit to talk his normal trash. Apollo and Commander Azeez showed up to take advantage of a colossus-less Styles. AJ was the weak cat in the Omos & AJ collab, so it makes sense two people are ready to pick on him and make themselves famous. AJ and Apollo have pretty good chemistry together, working a match showcasing how athletic and agile both men are. AJ not only pinned Apollo, but took down Azeez with a Phenomenal Forearm and avoided the typical post-match beatdown. One for Riddle... Riddle picked up the W over Chad Gable in a short but good match. The story? Alpha Academy, specifically Otis, having RK-Bro’s number. Riddle proved that might not be the case and it was followed by... One for Raaaandy Randy Orton finally, finally, slapped an RKO on Otis. After failing to get it done last week and three times this week, the fourth time was indeed the charm. And despite what Riddle said before the match, R, K, and O are not words. High education, indeed. Not as good as the Gable and Riddle bout but serviceable. This might mean RK-Bro is losing the titles to whomever wins the RK-Bronament as they move American Alpha off the board. Mixed Messaging R-Truth jumped and clicked his heels, the highlight of the match and probably the highlight of the night. Tamina & R-Truth went two-on-two with Dana Brooke & Reggie, who dressed like a cross between a chauffeur and a Chippendales dancer. Reggie picked up the W for his team. Just short and silly enough to showcase some cool moves, and not long enough to make you wonder what in the world is happening here. Tag Champ Rematch Super Brutality (remember when that was a thing?) challenged Carmella & Queen Zelina for the tag championships at Day 1. The champs accepted and immediately started with the mind games. Their goal is to coax Nikki A.S.H. (Almost a Sane Human, according to Corey Graves) into doing too much. Nikki is the weakest link, so flattering Rhea Ripley and demeaning A.S.H. is the smart play. Carmella cut an effective promo, saying Nikki is almost a lot of things. But almost isn’t good enough. Unless it’s partial credit on my middle school math tests, she’s right. Two-Face Damien Priest let his darker half get the best of him, leading to a DQ victory for Dolph Ziggler during their United States Championship match. It was an okay match until Damian snapped, as it felt a bit clunky for my taste. Damian’s evil face is still way more comical than it should be. Eventually, Dolph is going to ask for a match where Damien loses the title if he’s DQ’d, right? Right now, the character trait isn’t harming Priest at all. There’s gotta be at least a couple consequences. Maybe it’s because of COVID tying their hands, but Raw had good energy this week. We got one incredible match sandwiched by solid matches, a new match for Day 1, and some comedy that worked. They did their best with the hand they were dealt and delivered a pretty good go home show. Grade: B+ |
