Well shit that was quick

Hints were already dropped weeks ago for Black with the Dark Arts comment by Dom to.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Bloody hell. I knew it was a possibility, but I really didn't expect them to move THAT quick on debuting Starks in NXT

Guess it helps when one of his best mates is Cody


Like the days of guys appearing on WCW after appearing the night before in WWE because of pre-tapes

 

[Ry009]

Surprised he's not rated much around here. Thought his stuff with MJF and Danielson was really good. Always been a fan, so am stoked he's in NXT - should thrive.

Gonna miss his theme though, was an absolute (pun intended) banger.

Cora Jade added to WWE NXT Vengeance Day title match, card finalized

The Women’s title match at Vengeance Day is now a four-way following Tuesday’s episode of WWE NXT. Cora Jade defeated Bayley on Tuesday’s show, and after the contest was added to Saturday’s Vengeance…

looking at the Vengeance card, are we expecting any title changes? (Vaquer, and maybe an outside chance of tag titles?)

I think he's massively underrated. Likely because he's been kept off TV for so long that people forget how good he can be.

they're doing a livestream of Takeovers on YouTube if people want to check it out...

Roxanne showing up as old school Bayley was creative.

A lot of tension between Waller and Theory, no doubt both will be breaking up each others pins at Vengeance Day.

Interesting they switched JDC's music to his TNA System theme the 2nd time around.

Yeah made no sense last week. Nothing Fandango about him. Wonder if it was a production stuff up last week.

I feel like they did it once so people remember who he is, and then switch to his TNA theme after.

Also on Ricky Starks, I reckon NXT is a good place for him. The men's main event scene is so light, they've got Waller and Theory having to help fill spots from the main roster. More likely he gets lost in the shuffle if he went straight to the main roster. He shouldn't be in NXT for too long however, he's already developed with a 14 year career with a lot of experience with TV wrestling in the NWA and AEW.

Was just a quick nod to his Fandago time, he mentioned it himself and how the song means so much to him then pivoted to talking about The System.

Would have been completely lost in the shuffle on the main roster leading into Mania. This way he can have a couple of programs for the North American and NXT Championship throughout 2025.

Spoiler: Vengeance Day spoilers

Vaquer new champ. the mystery group is here. Jordynne Grace is also here.

 

[Cleavy]

seems like a fun dynamic

 

[Ry009]

Looking at the results and who ate pins, reckon a couple of call ups are happening soon?

definitely looks that way (or they're getting demoted to Evolve)

Good to see Santino show up.

it better not be a 2 hour show.

it better not be a 2 hour show.

If it's the same format as Level Up, then it could be 30 minutes with 2-3 matches.

my fingers are crossed, although I thought reports suggested there would be interviews and angles etc. did they do much of that on Level Up?

Every few weeks they did like one 1 minute backstage promo in the middle of the show. But mostly was just 2 cold matches.
