So is it racist? Is it just coincidence that the name is a combination of two black guys? :lol:

He probably gave them a list of names, and that's what they chose from it. That's usually how it works.

If I worked out, Charlotte and I would have the same body, minus the breasts.

If the Flair facial features weren't enough, now you're saying he has a body of a man.

I want to look at her as a her, man. Hard enough that I see Ric.

I don't think I'm biased when I say that Charlotte is the most talented woman in the Diva's group - regardless of who her pop is. She almost HAS to be - in order to silence folks from saying she's getting over because of her father.

Otoh, if Bram ever comes (back) to WWE, I won't give him any similar type of benefit of the doubt.

As long as he doesn't come out dressed like Consequences Creed, the name Apollo Crews is fine.

I feel like there will be some Terry Crewsesque comedy in his character.

Only thing I'll say about her is this, Charlotte should not be wearing booty shorts she has negative ass.

The tag division has been the area NXT has been lacking in since its inception but now business seems like its picking up in that area. I don't particularly like the teams at the top of the division, Blake and Murphy are still too generic to me and The Vaudevillains are a little too one note for me. And I think they're making a huge mistake by not having Enzo and Cass win the tag titles at this show. Winning the titles in Brooklyn should be there moment. And while I'll argue until I'm blue in the face that Zack Ryder got a raw deal his moment has long since passed and his team with Mojo Rawley sucks. But they've got Enzo and Cass, even when they were redneck jobbers I liked Dawson and Wilder and Jason Jordan and Chad Gable have some potential as well. The tag division is probably as deep as its ever been.

Hate to get into this because she's so damn talented, but if we're on the topic of her body, the main thing I always notice is that she doesn't have any hips. That's the big thing that gives her that sort of masculine look. She's not the most attractive of the current crop of female competitors but she's definitely not a dog.

That was actually my point. Weird way of putting it, I realize.

Wow, that is... unusual. But I'm an upper upper torso kinda guy, so she looks fine to me.

Thought Dillinger-Crowe was good. Crowe finally looks comfortable in an NXT ring. I can see now why he was so highly thought of coming in. Liked Graves on commentary. Not sure about Dillinger's new gimmick yet, but at least he has something.

Mojo gets chicks.

So, will Baron Corbin be known by his first or last name on the main roster? He's getting mad heat at the moment.

I was watching this weeks episode... Tye Dillinger is alot of fun. Marcus Louis looks like his character is based of the abby's from wayward pines.

NXT Takeover: Brooklyn! Championship results?

Spoiler:
Owens wins back the NXT title and Banks retains according to the post SS NXT tapings. Owens and Banks were both carrying their championships. Seems odd to me since both are now main roster call ups.

Spoiler:
I think the Owens part of that spoiler could be a swerve.


They finally changed Samoa Joe's entrance theme. It's so much better now, and is actually one of my favorite themes currently. The beginning of the theme before the change was so awesome and then the horns kicked in and ruined it. Glad they finally got it fixed.

Spoiler:
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if neither of those matches made it to air. The Owens match reads like a dark main event and they could probably easily take the Sasha match off air as well. The bigger news is Gargano and Ciampa!

Spoiler:
Yeah, that's pretty big news. I remember reading about Gargano possibly coming to NXT a few months back but bringing along Ciampa is an even bigger get.
