  • Mick Foley Praises Two NXT Divas, Has High Expectations For NXT Takeover Match

    WWE Hall Of Famer Mick Foley is hyping up the upcoming NXT Women’s Championship match between Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch at the upcoming NXT Takeover live special on the WWE Network.

    In his latest official Facebook blog, Foley touched on the Banks-Lynch showdown.

    “I’m going out on a limb here and predicting ?#?BeckyLynch? and Sasha Banks will have a ?#?MatchOfTheYear? type of contest on May 20 at ?#?NXTTakeover?. (No pressure at all ladies.),” said Foley. “I just get the feeling that both women are at the right place, at the right time, with the right combination of skills, character, and in-ring chemistry to pull it off.

    “One of my GREAT regrets is that I didn’t make it to the WWE NXT show in ?#?SanJose? during ?#?Mania? week, for what I heard was a sure fire contender for Match of the Year with Sasha and Ms Charlotte.”

    Foley concluded, “No doubt about it, 2015 is shaping up to be a great year for ?#?WomensWrestling?”

  • Latest On Randy Orton’s WWE Return, NXT Preview For Tonight

    – As noted recently, Randy Orton has been advertised locally to return at several of the past WWE television tapings, but was held back due to creative decisions made by the company. Orton is being advertised for the February 16th edition of RAW in Orlando, which is the Fast Lane “go-home” edition of the show. With Orton scheduled to return in time for a program at WrestleMania 31, one would assume that if he doesn’t return on the 2/16 RAW show, he will be returning either at the pay-per-view itself, or at RAW the following night.

    – The following matches were taped at Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida for tonight’s edition of NXT on the WWE Network:

    – Emma vs. Carmella

    – Adrian Neville vs. Baron Corbin (Semifinals of the No. 1 Contender’s Tournament)

  • WWE NXT Report Card (1/14)

    The WWE’s next generation was back in class last night, meaning it’s time to grade their performances. Matches will be graded based on usual factors such as workrate, in-ring psychology, crowd involvement, and overall impact on the storyline. Important promos will also be graded based on entertainment value, believability, and originality.

    Without further ado, here is this week’s NXT Report Card.

    Tyson Kidd vs. Finn Balor

    This week’s show kicked off in a big way, as two of the most talented athletes in NXT locked up. Balor came out firing, going for the diving double foot stomp just seconds into the match.

    Kidd eventually took control and slowed the match to a methodical pace, at one point driving Balor through the barricade into about the third row. Balor eventually turned it around after hitting the move Alex Riley so eloquently described as a “floating, spinning neckbreaker of some kind.”

    After delivering a kick to the head and hitting a somersault over the top rope to the floor, Balor dominated the rest of the contest (aside from a minor Kidd offensive), eventually picking up the victory after hitting a diving double foot stomp.

    Result: Finn Balor wins via pinfall

    Analysis: Most importantly, I think it’s awesome that Tyson’s gimmick is basically a guy who loves cats and Beats headphones. With that said, these two worked very well together. The action was fast paced for the most part, and it was nice to see Balor get the win. He definitely needed the win more, and as much as I love seeing Balor and Itami together, I’m hoping he starts his solo career in the near future.

    Grade: B+

  • WWE NXT Report Card (12/18)

    The future of the WWE went to school last night, and I’m here to grade their performance. Matches will be graded based on usual factors such as workrate, in-ring psychology, crowd involvement, and overall impact on the storyline. Important promos will also be graded based on entertainment value, believability, and originality.

    While this is supposed to act as a weekly report and recap for NXT, more importantly, it’s a place for you, the SEScoops readers, to discuss this week’s episode, dole out your own grades, and discuss the future of the product. Without further ado, here is this week’s NXT Report Card.

    Adrian Neville/Kevin Owens Opening Promo

    kevin-owens-steen-hype-video-ses-1

    This was a pretty good way to start the show and the crowd really seemed to be into it. Neville did his best to make amends with the fans and put over Sami Zayn, saying things like, “We went to war” and “The better man won.”

    Neville isn’t the strongest promo man in the game, but he did his best, even if he can be a bit redundant at times. Owens, on the other hand, cut an intense and articulate promo that seemed to have the crowd on the edge of their seats. Overall, it was a good way to start the show and set up the main event between Neville and Owens.

    Grade: B+

    Bayley vs. Becky Lynch

    This one started off a bit sluggish, with most of the early action consisting of Bayley throwing punches and not utilizing many wrestling moves. The action picked up toward the end, however, with the ending sequence being particularly impressive. The counter into Lynch’s finisher was fresh and it worked well with the in-ring psychology due to Bayley’s injured knee.

    Grade: B-
