Has anyone else been frustrated with NXT leading up to TakeOver tomorrow night?
There’s some matches I’m super excited for, but all of the lead up has been pretty annoying, week after week, we have the big name stars facing unknown guys.
Bayley vs Banks: little to no build up.
Samoa Joe vs Baron Corbin: little build up.
Lyger vs Prince pretty: little build up, we just knew about it for a while.
It feels like the only two that have had decent build up are Owens vs Balor, and the Tag titles match!
Normally, I’d not care as much, but I’m more invested, cause I get to see it live with cool friends. and I’m excited for the matches, but for their first TakeOver event outside of Florida, the lead up has been less than stellar compared to so much stuff they have done before.
Argh.
maybe so about Bayley, but the two have had little to no interaction, espescially compared to the last TakeOver with Becky vs Sasha, there was a great amount of build up and heat between the two.
This feels weird in comparison. And I feel like it’s mostly cause a lot of NXT talent is injured, or moving on to Raw.
I believe Sasha/Bayley lack of build was probably due to Bayley’s injury, they were probably planning this for a while with all the top women in nxt going to the main roster sasha had to drop the title to someone and Bayley is the only real option, if Bayley didn’t get injured we would’ve had a much better build, but since she did they hit the fastforward button to get it done in time.
I feel like there’s been a good amount of build up for a weekly show that’s an hour long. Certainly better build than the main roster.
