Top 4 of NXT 6/13/12
The last episode of NXT Season 5, also known as NXT: Redemption.

However, on the horizon is a … Continue reading »
Top 4 of NXT 5/30/12
We are reaching the end of the NXT that is being taped during Smackdown. What will happen to that extra hour? Will it be shorter shows now? How will we see Full Sail’s NXT? And what about FCW?

Top 4 of NXT 5/23/12
Once again NXT has forgone plot of any kind and become NXTStars instead of what we had grown to love, which was a show about stories and the wrestling ability.

I really wanted to break this into more sections, but I cheat enough during my Top 4, so here’s 4. Ish. 4. All the promos Darren: “I’ve made reservations at McDonalds!” Derrick: “It’s getting weird.” Johnny: “It’s my line!” Derrick: “That was my fiancée.” Johnny: “We are not going to get outdone by a couple … Continue reading »
Top 4 of WWE NXT 3/28/12
I was going to cancel the Top 4 this week because there were only two matches and one segment, damn the Road to Wrestlemania. But then I kept looking at it wondering if I could write a straight review of the show, and the answer simply was, ‘no’. I am just not good at continually … Continue reading »
