      Balor's entrance just now at TakeOver was one of the best I've ever seen in WWE. So F***ing awesome with facepaint.

      Itami just teased the hell out of everyone setting up for a GTS (he used it before Punk)

      NXT has such a great feel to it, unlike the rest of WWE programming

      FINALLY.... Sami Zayn has become NXT Champion! 

      Holy sh*t what a match that was. Kudos to both guys.

      Well it will take something special for TLC to top that

      Been very few that weren't enjoyable listens, love to see him given a go on commentary, especially a team up with Regal. They had a great 2 parter episode on AOW.

      What Meltzer wrote about the main rosters view on Takeover, can only mean good things for Sunday. Right?

      Quote
      There is some real motivation on the main roster to not get blown away from yesterday's show, so the feeling is that because of last night, Sunday's TLC show will probably be better than it would have been.

      I didn't get to see it but it sounds like Takeover was something special.

      The main roster would want to put on a serious show at TLC for quite a few to keep their jobs!

      Credit to the guys and girls at NXT, they've finally created competition for WWE in a sense. And alot of that credit has to go to HHH.

      Even with NXT pushing the main roster, I can't see Kane v Ryback or Big Show v Rowan being great matches. Both those matches though should be won by the younger stars. Neither Kane nor Show need the victory.

      The only problem with bringing up the NXT stars is they can lost in the roster or just don't connect with the fans. Adam Rose and Bo Dallas being two prime examples of that. They were over in Florida, which is why they got called up, but on the main roster it didn't have the same affect. Dallas is no off telly while Rose is feuding with a fella in a giant rabbit outfit. Big E and Xavier Woods are another two who have been given no direction. It looks like they're even struggling to know what to do with Rusev now because he's back feuding with Swagger - who I genuinely hope isn't the man they finally have to beat Rusev. Paige, Emma and Summer Rae all had quality matches on NXT, on the main roster they are playing second fiddle to the Bella's. Even Charlotte, making her debut, gets fed to Natalya who she beat in a great match on Takeover 1.

      The only ones they've really worked from NXT to the main roster are the Shield and maybe the Wyatt's - depending on how they handle Rowan and Harper's singles careers.

      Also once Bryan, Orton and Reigns return, there's going to be a crowded main event scene (especially with babyfaces). That leaves a very small opportunity for the likes of Zayn, Neville, Itami, Steen, Balor, Dempsey, Corbin and the main roster don't pay any attention to the women division so Charlotte, Sasha, Becky Lynch and Bayley are probably better on NXT.

      The best way to get them on the roster, in my opinion, would be to bring a few of them in as tag teams. The Shield and the Wyatts are the ones who've worked, they both came in as teams. It allows the fans to get to know them. There's also a couple of tag teams they can beat to get going and then anybody can have good matches with the Uso's and Goldust & Stardust.

      Got work at 7 in the morn but since I'm so pissed off anyway today with the footy, I thought I'd stay awake, watch all of TLC and go into work as one tired, moody c**t and make all their days as miserable as mine is now.

      Cant help when it's accidental haha.

      Awesome match. Hopefully the rest try to outdo it.

      I thought it was accidental but three in a few weeks span when there's hardly been any over the past 5 years.

      Maybe when it adds to the match Vince allows it now. Definitely made the Ziggler win feel sweeter with him battered and bloody

      Also made the beating Orton got from the Authority look better and more vicious.

      Pretty boring match.

      Would be cool if Seth somehow had Cena all but beat and teases him with throwing the match if Cena rehires the Authority
