DissTroy:
If you know your two balls aren't as shrunken as Pendu's Dubai d'Or, mention Beks or outrightly attack Messi/Barcelona on Sports Twitter and outrightly identify as a Madridiot. In 4 hours, give us feedback.

After Cules, Chelsea fans are the most formidable on Football Twitter. If there's an obvious L to be had, Cules won't engage you.

Madridiots? Cules are the reason Pendu and Perez always trend for the wrong reasons on Twitter. When next there are negative trends about these two, go check the accounts behind them.

If you are really on Sport Twitter, you'd know better than to attack Messi/Barca needlessly. Even Frank Edoho, rabid ass he is, avoids trolling us.
Beks has chopped more L's than llama Bellingham his name should be Belllks already, the other ones are just modified yesmen... especially this season, the content has been endless against Cules, you guys just started breathing a little cos of Messi's seventh but we are gradually returning to normalcy.

He calls you "Deepshit" without even quoting you, and you reply. He tells you to "FOH" as a "Barka" fan and you reply.

Are you sure you're a Cule? 'Cause the Cules on Twitter would take this guy to the cleaners to put him in his place. Why keep allowing a Madridiot have one over a Cule?

Bring on your fan ultra side! I should give you links of Twitter Cules to follow to know how to serve it scalding hot if the scalding you see here isn't enough.
which link? Edmund Oris? Beks? Twitter Cules done chop L's pass any other Fanbase for that app

WWE NXT WARGAMES REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS


Let’s talk NXT WarGames.
Case of the P.T.A.
There was a moment in the men’s WAAAARGAAAAAMES match when every individual feud had a moment to shine. Grayson Waller landed an elbow drop from the heavens on top of a defenseless LA Knight. Tony D’Angelo put Pete Dunne in a swinging neckbreaker from the top rope. Oh, and he had a crowbar around the Bruiserweight’s throat. Dexter Lumis reappeared to chase off a nosey Trick Williams! And then there were the main four: Tommaso Ciampa, Johnny Garagno, Bron Breakker, and Carmelo Hayes.
Those four had multiple moments that changed the temperature of the match. Whether it was Johnny and Melo during the match’s first five minutes, Ciampa calling in an Air Raid on Bron with a metal trash can breaking his fall (trash cans don’t really break falls), or the multiple mini DIY reunions perfectly in flow with the match.
The beauty of this particular WarGames match is it’s steeped in history. We’re talking about a battle between NXT’s past and its future, so everything has to count. That context is the only way a freaking crutch pops the crowd. They know what it means to the wrestlers, to the brand, and why its appearance is momentous. But if you get your Sherlock Holmes on, you’ll notice it was the Black and Gold team doing most of the callbacks. “Purple,” you’re saying to yourself, “of course they had the callbacks. They’re the team with all the history!” And you’re 100 percent correct. At a certain point, focusing too much on the past and the way things were done can inhibit one from focusing on the present and what’s happening now. And that’s how The Black and Gold walked away as losers.
Team 2.0’s number one rule was there are no rules. They’re the ones who bought in the plunder. They’re the ones who locked the cage door to use the numbers game to their advantage even if it was for just a few extra seconds. Melo and Bron’s crew didn’t have it easy, but they used every edge—no pun intended. Hey Beth!—they possessed to stall, punish, or surprise their counterparts who believed they just weren’t ready. That means we had several near falls, a lot of momentum swings, and many moments where the Black and Gold crew figured they had the entire thing wrapped like presents, mummies, or sandwiches.
Which brings us to the closing moments of the match. As I said, it was all about the four main players in our performance. Johnny announced this was his first WarGames and it might be his last. It only makes sense that he Ciampa showed off the moves and chemistry that made DIY, well, DIY. If that teamwork and showmanship ended the match and sent Team 2.0 crying? That’s pure poetry. And it’s what almost happened.
After a Meeting in the Middle put Bron out of commission, it was Melo shooting at Ciampa and Gargano. A thumb to the eye here, a low blow there, and it looked like the North American champ was ready to make history. Then that DIY teamwork kicked in again, as Gargano held Melo long enough for Ciampa to nail the champ with a knee to the back of his head, with Johnny taking some damage in the process.
Ciampa grabbed Melo, positioned him near a table placed ever-so-properly in a corner, and prepped him for a Fairytale Ending. Yet, somehow, through all that, they lost sight of the Big Bad Booty Nephew. Seriously, how do you take your eyes off of a human that large? Anyway, in one of the best moments of the night, Bron speared Ciampa through the table right as the NXT champ lifted Hayes into the air. It was poetry in motion because it said so much in less than 15 seconds. The NXT Champion took his eye off his biggest challenge because he doesn’t think he deserves a shot. While taking his sweet time to finish the match, he was caught off guard by that same man, put through a table, and then powerslammed for the three-second tan.
It wasn’t the greatest WarGames, but it was a damn good story, a satisfying ending, and the boys put on a hell of a show.
More importantly? I have no idea where we go from here. As someone who wants surprises from his wrestling, that’s the best place in which to be.
If you didn’t know already, it’s official now: 2.0 season has begun.


Separation Anxiety
The question going into the women’s WarGames match—for me at least—was whether the babyface squad could get on the same book, much less the same page. Everyone had their own agendas and that normally leads to at least a mild case of chaos. Opposites attract but they can also repel. Nope, that’s not how science works, but you get my point.
In the end, the story was about the rookie and youngest person in the entire match: Cora Jade. Jade, the third entrant, wrestled with something to prove. And who can blame her? Her teammates and her opponents are champs, former champs, or wrestling legends. Of course she goes after Dakota Kai with her skateboard. Of course she goes after everyone like a rabid dog. And, of course, she took the riskiest high risk of the match.
With her squad placing Jacy Jayne on a table, Cora went to the top of the cage. High on adrenaline, and, again, needing to prove her self, Jade goes for a Senton. I say goes for because she landed awkwardly. Sure, anytime you land on someone, it’s not a smooth landing, but you normally don’t land on your shoulder either. Cora held on to that shoulder and was clearly in agony. After some discussion with the referees, it looked like Cora was on her way out. But Dr. Io Sharai wasn’t having any of that. Sharai popped Jade’s shoulder back into place after telling everyone she would handle it.
Cora nursed her shoulder for the rest of the match while the fighters fought. And fought they did. Trash cans, tables, and utter violence. At this point, Raquel González, Kay Lee Ray, and Sharai were just trying to protect their injured partner.
But then something happened. Once Mandy Rose entered and the match “officially” started, Cora summoned the Power of Greyskull, and broke up a potential match ender with a Kendo stick. Once again, that adrenaline kicked in and she managed to get a few shots in before getting a surprise rollup pin on Jayne.
The one-armed woman in a wrestling match scored the W for her team, and the biggest one of her career to this point. A fun opener that had a couple sloppy moments, but props on the ending that makes sense based on the main story the match conveyed.


The Rest
No New Friends
Kyle O’Reilly is done with affiliations and friends. O’Reilly and Von Wagner—still an awful name—put up a really good fight against Imperium. But that good fight didn’t equate to a meaningful win. Their newfound friendship wasn’t enough for the longtime chemistry the champs developed. Kyle fell victim to an Imperium Bomb and unloaded his frustration on his partner and only friend in NXT. Kyle’s paranoia got the best of him because he doesn’t trust a soul anymore. Good match with an interesting twist in the end.
I hope the Powers That Be weren’t going for a heel moment there because the crowd was fully on Kyle’s side. Almost as if to say, “Von Wagner, we’re just not that into you.”

Luck Be a (Grimey) Lady, Tonight
The right man won. Does it matter that he had a handful of tights? Not really. The whole thing between Cameron Grimes and Duke Hudson is about outplaying the opponent. Poker isn’t about playing the cards; it’s about playing the person in front of you. Bluffing and hustling are built into the rules. In that context, I have no problem with a babyface playing loose with the rules to get a win. Another good match with the added bonus of seeing Duke Hudson humbled with a God-awful haircut. Seriously, a bowl cut is better.

Get Your Weight Up
Roderick Strong walked into the Performance Center as Cruiserweight champ and he leaves the same way he entered. I’m not sure how to feel about the match because if Joe Gacy isn’t going to win, what was the point? Not even saying I’m a fan of dude, but it’s just weird.
Gacy stopping Harland from harming Ivy Nile was the most interesting part of the match. Other than that? Meh.

This was a fun show for the most part. The one match I wasn’t feeling is the match I predicted I wouldn’t feel, while the rest was, unsurprisingly, consistent. We also got a lot of vignettes in this show.
It didn’t need to be anywhere near 3 hours and it felt like they were dragging it out for Sports Entertainment Reasons ™. The two matches that needed to stand out did, while setting the stage for a very interesting week of television.

It also mattered during all this time below

He hasn’t scored an away goal in the Champions League beyond the round of 16 since April 2, 2013, when he scored in a 2–2 draw against Paris Saint-Germain in the quarter-final.
Messi has since played in nine away knockout matches beyond the last 16, failing to score in any of them.

In 2009 Barcelona played Chelsea in the Champions League SF. Messi was absolutely horrible, failed to score home or away. This was the born of Uefalona, Chelsea were denied 4 clear penalties. Barcelona should have been eliminated and thus this CL win is void.

In 2010 Barcelona played Inter in the CL semifinals. Messi, as is often the case with him in big games was absolutely rubbish. He recorded ZERO assists or goals over the two legs and Barca were eliminated.

In the 2010 World Cup, Messi played 5 matches. In all the tournament combined he scored a grand total of 0 goals, “ZERO” in five matches and registered a single assist only. Argentina were eliminated in the quarterfinals.

In 2012, Barca faced Chelsea again, but with no referees to help, they were eliminated. Messi again drank the potion of invisibility. He did not score or assist in 180 minutes, also missed the penalty that would’ve sent Barca through. Later he was found in Gary Cahill’s pocket.

In 2013 UCL semifinals, Messi again was a bystander for the entire game as Barcelona were beaten and embarrassed by Bayern 7–0. He did not score or assist in 180 minutes of play, as Barca crashed out.

In 2014 UCL quarters, Messi was again his usual horrible self against Atletico Madrid. He dropped one of the worst performances of his career over the 2 legs, not once scoring or assisting. He missed several easy chances in the 2nd leg, including an easy tap in from a metre out.

In 2014 World Cup, Messi stat padded against teams like Iran, Nigeria & bosnia herzegovina in the group stages. But he had ZERO goals & assists combined against Belgium QF, Holland SF & Germany in the final. Again not showing up in big matches when his team needed him the most. In the World Cup final, Messi was through 1v1 vs Neuer. It was time for Messi to finally get the most prestigious trophy in football. But Messi, being the choker he is, missed an absolute sitter and put it wide. No one, but Messi is to be blamed for this loss.

In 2016, Messi again put his usual UCL semifinal disaster class. This time ZERO goals and assists in 180 minutes against Atletico Madrid. The second leg away was one of his worst career games, choking a 2–1 lead from the first leg.

In 2015 and 2016, Messi lost back to back Copa America finals with Argentina. He had ZERO goals and assists in both finals. He crumbled under pressure in the 2016 final shootout and missed the penalty. After this humiliating defeat, he took a fake retirement.

In 2017 UCL quart finals, Messi again ghosted, this time against Juventus in the quarterfinals. He again did not score or assist in both legs. Barca were humbled 3–0 and were sent packing. His national teammate, Paulo Dybala, outshone him over the two legs.

In 2018 UCL quarters, Messi and co were again sent packing, this time, by Roma. Messi’s performance at the Olimpico will go down as the worst ever performance by a superstar in CL history. Didn’t do anything & missed an absolute sitter. Messi bottled a 4–1 lead.

At the 2018 World Cup, Messi again choked at the grandest stage of world football. He missed a penalty against Iceland, who’s keeper is a film director. He was invisible against Croatia in a 3–0 thrashing, and again, vs France as Argentina were knocked out.

In 2019 UCL, Messi stat padded against weak opposition but went missing again when the going got tough. He was knocked out by Liverpool, after winning the first leg 3–0. Another all time Champions League bottle job.
He’s is the best player in spain right now I admit but outside la liga the Argentine Frodo Baggins is shit with a weak mentality can never be my goat

Those two seemed like an odd pairing right from the beginning.The news about retiring the cruiserweight title breaks my heart. I followed that title right from the 2016 cruiserweight classic tournament, to 205live and then nxt. I guess wwe no longer wants smaller athletes in nxt 2.0
People like kushida, Roderick strong etc may be chasing 24/7 title in the near future. That is if they don't get fired.
Kushida already looks prime for a 24/7 title reign cry
