It was definitely intentional

Big Show switched alignment 3 times during that match, if I recall.

I couldn’t find the NXT thread, but I decided to watch some this week since they seem to be putting effort in. Some thoughts:
SPOILER: show After this I had to take a break. It wasn’t horrible, but the “acting” on the show is so bad. Everyone is green, but that’s kind of a problem. They really need to dial back on some of these gimmicks too. Makes it way harder to care about the ring stuff. |

Oh, how have Los Lotharios managed to avoid the Autumn Clean? They’re a couple more guys in NXT most likely on main roster money (even if on the low end of the scale).

WWE probably sees value in them. Young Hispanic dudes with no known attitude problems.

Maybe they could be the “next Rey Mysterio” they’ve been looking for for the last 15 years?

The next Rey Mysterio? Why would they want a man who is a horrible father and beats his son? If that's the case just rehire Alberto Del Rio if he isn't in prison already.

I feel "bad" missing out on the work that Christian is doing right now. Clearly the best part of AEW, but I just can't commit to watching....
Maybe if MJF and Christian swapped titles that would get me to watch, not to mention start a new boom period in wrestling. |

He's a great follow for that reason. And actually has a decent sense of humor.

Mr. Nerfect, it’s happening…
HBK on CM Punk: “Of course, we’d welcome him here in NXT. My guess is, he would probably want to go to the main roster. I always enjoyed working with Phil. Didn’t get to do it much. I understood him. Whether you want to say there were similarities in us. I can’t lie. We were at TV, and he once pulled out his wallet, on the spot, an autograph that I had signed for him in a hotel that he still had. I’ve always liked him. I understand he’s a different kind of cat and can sometimes be challenging to get along with people, but that is probably why I like him, because I suffer from the same thing. Obviously, that’s for people to decide higher up on the food chain than I am. He’s a guy that does numbers and makes money. That would be a risk-reward ratio that from a company standpoint, they’d have to consider. When it comes to, ‘would we take him in NXT and have him on our television?’ Are you kidding me? Of course I would. I just don’t think anybody would let me. Who wouldn’t take that kind of star power? I don’t know. If I get in trouble for that, I’ll let you know.“ |

Need to have the NXT locker room start being unruly and HBK can handle it so he has to bring a real Locker Room Leader.

Punk should play the gimmick Dave Meltzer made up for him. Turn NXT into a Punk branded show. Have him act like a babyface as he goes over and the internet cries. Then slowly lead people to realize he’s not the hero he wants to be presented as.
NXT Champion Punk dropping sly disses at the AEW Title and World Heavyweight Title as he smooches up to Becky and Seth gets jealous is money. |

Man if CM Phil went to NXT and beat Dynamite in the ratings, Tiny might legit explode.

Both are accidental.
The Meng one could be explained, because everything happened so fast. However with Jimmy Hart Goldberg clearly didn’t have a good grip on him, and shouldn’t have thrown him yet. Basically I’m saying Meng is pure accident while Jimmy Hart is careless accident. |

Yeah cause he tried to intentionally do it to Meng, then there would be no more Goldberg.

They are in Oakland so lots of Luchadors in this episode
Psychosis vs Eddie Guerrero next. One of the better episodes of Thunder in ring. I'm sure Brian Adams will screw that all up at some . Or Mongo, Bulldog and Anvil |
