We're in England all week and Smackdown is Syfy bound. But before we get there this fall, we have the rookies who carry kegs in action battling not to get eliminated from contention to become the next WWE Superstar.
We open with all eight rookies in a Talk the Talk Challenge and the winner gets to make their own entrance at WWE HQ. You get 30 seconds and Stryker gives them and random word they picked out of a hat. Once you know your word you have to talk for said 30 second on the word, and the audiences cheers determine the winner. What this has to do with wrestling I have no idea, mic skills development I guess. Well Wade "The Botanist" Barret and Skip "To My Lou" Sheffield we're the final two. Maybe we get a match to determine the winner, oh wait this is WWE, so goodbye logic. Instead of a match we have a talk off one more time. Well we are in England so naturally Wade wins. Nice Wade is one of the 4 I like. Also please shut the announcers mics off during promos, I'm sick of Coles terrible out of control announcing and least Josh "Goofy Smile" Matthews chucked at something funny. I think was all completely
Christian w/Heath Slater beat Wade "The Botanist" Barret w/Chris Jericho in a singles match via pinfall: 5/10 or 2.5/5 Stars
Early on Barrett hits a nice springboard backbreaker on Christian. And we also get a out to the floor let's go to commercial break. Nice. As we comeback Barret hits a nice Tilt O' Whirl backbreaker on Christian. End match Christian hits a flying reverse elbow on Barret. Y2J gets involved and helps Barret sets Christian up for The Flower Shop but Slater gets involved. It lets Christian slip out the back (no homo) and hits the Killswitch for the 1-2-3. Solid match with good action from one of the better Rookies in-ring.
We have Miz harping on Daniel for only coming up with "I love England" earlier tonight and calling him the Susuan Boyle of the WWE (Thanks for posting Britain's Got Talent) and that he needs to go out in his match next and make himself star power-fied.
William Regal w/Skip "To My Lou" Sheffield beat Daniel Bryan w/The Miz (United States/Unified Tag Team Champion)in a singles match: 1/10 or 0.5/5 Stars
End match Bryan puts a Guillotine Sleeper on Regal which is countered into a suplex. Then good old Bill hits the knee trembler on Bryan for the pinfall. After the match Miz takes out Regal and then gives Daniel Bryan the Skull Crushing Finale. I hate Cole on NXT with his higher than almighty, douchebag character. Someone tell him if he's gonna be a heel announcer he has to hate everyone who is a face not just the one guy he doesn't like cause he got big online rather than being with the WWE for 20 years.
Darren "Unh Se, Unh Se, Unh Se" Young beat Luke Gallows w/CM Punk/Serena in a singles match via pinfall: 2/10 or 1/5 Stars
If Darren loses he gets his head shaved publicly, but if Darren beats Gallows his transgressions from last week will be forgiven. Oh no Darren didn't get an entrance, that doesn't bode well for good ol' black John Cena. End match Gallows goes for a second fall-a-way slam but Darren counters into a school boy for the win.
NXT: 4/10 or 2/5 Stars
Last Week: 5/10 or 2.6/5 Stars (Unofficial FJ Rating)
My thoughts. Rookie challenge- bad, SES promo- ok, first match (30 dagum minutes in)- good, Miz promo- ok, second match- meh, third match- meh, and Coles announcing is TERRIBLE! That's the show, it wasn't good at all. What keg-carrying and debate club have to do with becoming a WWE Superstar I'll never know. But at least they're bringing in the ratings....oh wait.
That's it for The NXT Notes. As always suggest to me stuff you'd like me to write on n' shizz. Also if you wanna add me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter, please do so. Really I don't mind.
