#roddy in suspenders

[witchofthesouls]

Hello, I don't usually ask questions on social networks, but I wanted to know what you think of a story where our human friend suffers an accident aboard the lost light in the Brainstrom laboratory and now the bots are able to see his thoughts. Bonus points if it's weird stuff (most of our minds are very weird), (sorry if something is poorly translated, I'm writing this with the translator) ^^)

One, I absolutely adore this concept.

Two, did you know there are people that think in pictures rather than use an internal voice?

And to top it off, people go around referencing pop culture, iconic scenes, memes, and their favorite media as well as the weird, intrusive thoughts and extreme, nonsensical daydreams...

I like to think there would be a media war between the Cybertronians that never went to Earth and only know beloved cartoons and shows and memes from the weird reenactment from the resident human's mind but with the Lost Light crew getting morphed into it versus the Cybertronians that actually had direct experience and personally downloaded those shows and movies.

As the "I Ship It" song goes, canon ground versus crack ship space.

Does anyone else remember those Naruto animation videos where the Akatsuki are drawn drunk or doing hilarious dances? The human looked up the Decepticon Justice Division, cross referenced on what they do, and immediately thought of a full sequence of the D.J.D. doing the Gang Torture Dance from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

The human thinks of sequences, including but not limited to:

Ultra Magnus as Steve Harvey from Family Feud with Rodimus with the "Nekkid Grandma!" bit

Rodimus doing "Goofy Goober Rock" because Roddy would love to be suspended in the air and dressed in wizard swag with a killer rip on a peanut-themed guitar. Drift has the legs to fulfill Patrick's fishnet-and-heels dance.

Megatron and Ratchet in The Office because he would stare deep into the camera at whatever new trouble has plagued the ship

Getaway and Rodimus doing the "Tony and Ezekiel" bit

So many fire-related memes: Elmo and the "This is fine." Dog.

The overlap of Rodimus in Gurren Lagen and Bang Brave Bang Bravern

The continuously weirder and weirder thoughts on how Cybertronian strip club would look like based on Futurama, Cyberpunk, and Night runner's Magnum Bullets. "Snu-snu" bit included. It's both highly ridiculous, strangely erotic, and absolutely terrifying at the same time to the Lost Light crew.

Whenever a mech does something stupid, the human immediately reimagines the mech in Wheel of Fortune fails, or a shoving potatoes in the exhaust

Nightbeat in a noir setting or as Sherlock Holmes

Rung is "Mister Cellophane" from Chicago

Assigned character theme songs

The last bullet causes so much drama because mechs want to have really cool or badass themes, but no! The human assigns them sex or porn songs like "Life is a Highway" and "Shut Up and Drive" and "Two Trucks," or something silly like "Barbie Girl" or the opening theme to Mega XLR or the sad song on the world's smallest violin to the poor bastard that gets stuck with the engex bill at the end of the night.

I absolutely love the idea that outliers lose control of their abilities when they overload

Like, I don’t even know how it’d work for Thundercracker. Maybe getting thrown across the room at best.

For Skywarp, it’d be more embarrassing than anything (unless you were an exhibitionist, of course). Like, you could teleport anywhere. A room full of your friends/enemies/superiors, the middle of the street, someone’s house. Literally anywhere

It’d be easy for bots like Mirage, he’d just disappear. It could be interesting though if his partner could still see their spike/transfluid inside his valve

It’d probably be mainly annoying for Trailbreaker. He’d have an amazing overload and immediately be trapped in a bubble for half an hour (I think). I also like to think that when Trailbreaker is in one of his panic bubbles, he either can’t make a regular force field or it’d just really sap his energy/make him pass out if he did, so he’d probably have pretty high stamina/have to really concentrate on not overloading during interface so he wouldn’t end up accidentally trapping his partner in a force field with him when he’s unconscious/too tired to do anything.

-Red (5 days without sleep? I’ve stopped counting at this point)

YES, i also love this idea so much. i hc that an intense overload could make a bot's horn or siren go off, so those with an outlier ability are basically in very big trouble. 

Trailbreaker with extreme, almost unbelievable stamina because he has to watch his overload, since he's had one too many incidents where he recklessly fucked himself on a spike, and in his orgasmic bliss he ended up trapping himself and his partner inside a forcefield…

Mirage shaking underneath his partner, literally blinking in and out of reality, disappearing with each little twitch in his abdomen, until he yells out and throws himself back against the bed, turning completely invisible. His lover watches as their transfluid spurts inside, and the way it drips down the channel of Mirage's valve and pools in his forge, it looks like their transfluid is suspended in thin air. 

Thundercracker accidentally sonic-booming his partner off of him in overload. Great for pre-negotiated impact play, and an absolutely terrible surprise to experience without warning. Skywarp's frame cackling with the tell-tale charge of his outlier ability booting up, but he's too lost in pleasure to notice. As he jerks in overload, he suddenly finds himself dizzy with vertigo and standing in the middle of a random hallway. 

tbh I've been thinking about Rodimus going ablaze when overloading for like, months. Roddy shaking in his partner's lap when suddenly his vents start to steam and the moment his valve cycles down he literally explodes, scorching his poor partner with the heat of his overload…  

hghhh… bots with outlier abilities having to surfer ruined orgasms or literally only ever getting to overload by themself, otherwise they'll either injure their partner or cause an embarrassing scene... poor things.

[autobots-in-training]

Now I wanna know what the twins did- so uhm- if yall don't mind answering this- what did they do? ALSO IS RODDY OKAY?????

Sunstreaker- I want to preface this with: Hot Rod is fine, he's a baby, hes still mostly protoform, we could put him in a hydraulic press and he'd be fine. He'd enjoy it!

Sideswipe- We kinda... showered him with rocks.

Sunstreaker- That makes it sound worse than what we did!

Sideswipe- But it's what happened!! Basically, it was this big tarp, suspended over OP's bed, we filled it with rocks-

Sunstreaker- He's a big bot! The rocks wouldn't've hurt him! What we didn't realize...

Sideswipe- Hot Rod was in OP's room, napping. He's so small! You can't blame us for what happened!

Sunstreaker- He's small, but he was still able to trigger the trap.

Sideswipe- The booby trap...

Sunstreaker- Yeah, when we heard that we got Roddy instead of OP... We confessed immediately. They still banned Halloween this year though.

Sideswipe- It sucks, cause now everyone is blaming us!

Sunstreaker- it would have been funny to get OP. Too bad we got the wrong Prime.

Sideswipe- He's not a Prime.

Sunstreaker- He's Prime's kid, so is Bee, so they are under Prime to me.

Sideswipe- Ugh, you got me there.

"Dear me, Dark Knight. I'd forgotten how your mind struggles to keep up... At least try and make this a challenge for me..."

So lately I've been toying with the idea of drawing Bookworm from the 1966 Batman series in the style of different Batman media, just to play around with what the character might look like. The Arkham games seemed an easy enough starting point, since it tends to be more toned-down.

I figured an Arkham Bookworm probably wouldn't be wearing a suit made entirely out of book-leather, so I opted for a sturdy suit in more typical materials, but gave him leather driving gloves to preserve some of his original look. Also let him keep his tie. I kept his thick-framed glasses, but in a more modern style, and swapped the book-lamp hat for a smaller pen-light attached to the glasses, sort of mimicking more modern book-lights. I gave him darker hair here even though it's always covered by a hat in the show, and I think Roddy McDowall's hair was closer to brown than black. I don't know. It seemed fitting for my attempt at Arkham Bookworm.

For some reason, I felt like Arkham Bookworm would have suspenders.

He'd still be largely a non-combatant like his 60s counterpart, and his side-quests would probably largely involve misdirection and puzzle-solving, possibly using deliberately archaic technology, ending with an escape that promised a satisfying conclusion in the next game, but would ultimately never be followed up on. I had toyed with the idea of whether or not he would act as an informant before his full side quest was revealed, but since I feel like the Arkham games would have dialed his arrogance up to 11, I find it somewhat unlikely that he would be able to work with any of the other rogues or with the Batman, even briefly. Oh, he'd still have the worm squad for sure, but they probably wouldn't have the same bond they had in the show, and Lydia's role would probably be diminished somewhat. Though I feel like she could potentially become a composite character with Printer's Devil. Potentially.

Who I believe could be The Devil, ranked in order of possibility

Well folks. We have another masked man angle in wrestling again. The Devil mask MJF used during his All Out return is being used again, but this time the suspense is lasting longer that one night. Jay White and The Acclaimed have been the targets, although it all seems to tie back to MJF, with Jay being attacked the night he challenged MJF and The Acclaimed a week after teaming with MJF.

Now I love a good masked mystery man angle, so I've been reading a lot of different predictions for who this could be. Now, in my opinion, I think this could be one of 8 different options. So here I am, ranking those in order of possibility (in my opinion) with 1 being the most possible, and 8 being the least.

Let's do it.

8. CM Punk

I had to bring it up. I really don't think he's coming back, but I had to bring it up. There's a reason this is at 8.

With that said, there is a little bit of evidence towards this theory. MJF used the devil mask to win the Casino Ladder Match, and then unmasked to challenge Punk. Punk has a connection to the mask in a way, and definitely has a connection to MJF. There were also a few lines on last week's Dynamite that could be interpreted as being Punk references.

One of the main things I'm also considering here is if it makes kayfabe sense for whoever The Devil is to need to mask their identity. Punk, considering he was fired, would need to conceal his identity in kayfabe.

Now, again, I really don't think it's him. He was fired with cause, and there's an insider report that it is not him. However, considering that Punk himself has been teasing it on his socials and the whole "the greatest trick the devil ever played..." thing, I had to include him, if only to be thorough.

7. Roderick Strong

It makes sense, at a surface level. Roddy hates MJF and blames him for taking Adam away from him and Adam's injury. Jay was credited for Adam's concussion on All Access, so if The Devil is trying to go after those who hurt Adam (or who they perceived to have hurt Adam), Jay makes sense. The Acclaimed also make sense, as he's attacking those close to MJF, or he might even think MJF is replacing Adam with The Acclaimed.

The major hole in this theory from a kayfabe standpoint is that I don't think Roddy would want, or need, to hide behind a mask. From a non-kayfabe standpoint I don't think it's him because it would be a letdown of a reveal, but I digress. Honestly, with Roddy's current character, he'd likely take pride in the attacks. It's not like he's been fired, or suspended, or is turning. He's an active member of the roster who is a heel. The only reason I can think of is that he's not showing his face because then it's obvious the "neck injury" isn't real, but he shows that everytime he's in the ring.

That all being said, I do think he's one of the henchmen. He's just not The Devil.

6. Dolph Ziggler, Mustafa Ali, or any of the recently released WWE wrestlers

This is another theory I've seen a bit. As far as I can tell, it's mostly built around predictions that they'll sign with AEW and that maybe it could be as The Devil. My mask credential fits for this on account of them being unable to appear until the beginning of December due to non-compete (which isn't the case for Ali, actually- I believe it was reported he had a 30 day non-compete since he was part of the NXT roster at the time of his release).

I feel like there's a small possibility one of them could be The Devil, just because it would be a shock to see them when they unmask, but it lacks motivation. Why would they debut by attacking Jay and The Acclaimed? To get the attention of the Champion? That might work, but out of all the options, they have the least motivation at the moment.

5. Jack Perry

Look, we haven't heard anything about his status since the suspension, and Full Gear is in LA...

It makes sense that he'd have to be masked, too, since he's still suspended. He has to orchestrate the attacks with his face hidden so he isn't recognized amid the suspension.

The only other "evidence" I have for this theory is the fact that The Acclaimed attack had a glass spot, and Jack was doing a glass spot that kind of became infamous the last time we saw him.

Again, another possibility to consider, but I do think it's unlikely it's him.

4. MJF

To be absolutely fair, we've never seen The Devil and MJF in the same room. Sure, MJF was in the ring when a video played on the tron, but maybe it was prerecorded? Maybe he was sick of being a good guy and went back to his heel roots, but he couldn't give himself away by doing it without a mask. He attacked Jay because he challenged him for the title, and he attacked The Acclaimed for thinking they could be friends.

This one would take a lot of explaining, but I do think it's possible that the Champion has snapped and gotten sick of the good guy act.

3. Kyle O'Reilly

Essentially the same reasoning for why Roddy could be The Devil, except he's hiding behind a mask for a bigger return reveal.

2. Adam Cole

I'm not ranking Adam number one for one simple reason...he's not gonna be healed for a while. Like we're talking Spring 2024 at the earliest. I don't think they can extend the reveal much past Worlds End, and definitely not until Adam can wrestle again.

Again, same reasoning as Roddy and Kyle, except it's him trying to get revenge for what was done to him rather than his friends trying to get it on his behalf.

This would need some serious backtracking, though. For The Devil to be Adam and to be there during the attacks, walking and standing fine, the injury would need to be explained as a work in kayfabe, despite it being real outside of it. And, again, Adam won't be able to wrestle for months and months.

I do think that whoever The Devil is, their motivations revolve around Adam. I just don't know if it's actually Adam.

1. Britt Baker

There's rumors that it's not her, but whatever, I still think she's the most logical choice. She attacked Jay as revenge for what he did to Adam, attacked The Acclaimed to show MJF what they can do and also, maybe, because she believes MJF was replacing Adam.

She's behind a mask because she wants everybody to think it's a man, and have them all point fingers at one another in the men's division, while nobody even considers it could be a woman.

And, no offense, but Britt hasn't been doing much lately. Something like this gives her a story again.

You could also go a few different ways with this when Adam can come back, about whether he agrees with what she did/is doing or if he's against it. There's some mystery in there that could be interesting to explore.

So there's my list. Have I thought about this way too much? Probably. But it's alright. This was fun. And when The Devil is revealed, we'll see if I'm even close to being right with any of these predictions.

Spring Stampede

April 19, 1998

Denver Coliseum

Denver, Colorado

Macho Man” Randy Savage faces Sting in a No Disqualification Match for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. Hollywood Hogan & Kevin Nash take on “Rowdy” Roddy Piper & The Giant in a Baseball Bat on a Pole Match. Raven takes on Diamond Dallas Page in a Raven’s Rules Match with the WCW United States Championship up for grabs and much more.

News & Notes: We won’t see Ric Flair for a while on this blog. Eric Bischoff suspended him for no-showing a Thunder taping. Then Eric sued him for breach of contract. Flair requested the night off to attend Reid’s wrestling tournament. WCW initially granted his request, but then Bischoff asked Flair to appear on the episode. They hyped Flair’s appearance. He was going to make an announcement about his career. However, Ric was already fed-up with his creative direction. He decided his son was more important. Flair attended the wrestling tournament instead. So Bischoff suspended him. Ric won’t return until the fall. They turn the real-life issues into a storyline upon his arrival.

In other news, the 83-week winning streak ended! RAW defeated Nitro in the ratings for the first time since 1996. The shows trade wins for the rest of the year, but the WWF pulls into the lead by 1999. Things are heating up!

Hnggg if I may add to the egg trade ideas: The Lost Light runs into a species they need to trade with that refuses to do it the egg way. When they ask why, the aliens say most cybertronians are too cold, they can't run at a hot enough temperature to not kill the eggs

And then Rodimus is like, wait a minute. That temp matches my specs. I run hot enough!!! :D :D :D

It's the first time Roddy ever gets to feel eggs growing inside him... Maybe it's even a viviparous species, and he gets to feel the eggs hatching in his tank...

-v3nth

Drift would probably offer to pay in money, assuring Rodimus he doesn't have to do it, but there's not a chance Rodimus would pass this opportunity. Not a chance in hell. Suspended in air by the sleazy, perverted alien limbs, he gets his pretty valve ruined by thick, hot tentacles, moaning loudly with each warm egg that stretches his calipers... Once his gestation tank is stuffed full of eggs the fun starts, he gets to feel them growing inside of him, stretching out his tank as the days pass, belly heavy and engine running as hot as he wants, eggs happy and warm inside of him.

mhfmmm eventually the eggs hatch inside of Rodimus... He feels them crawl out of their soft shells, squirming inside of him, slipping past the duct of his gestation tank and right into his channel, squirming against the inner nodes of his valve as he births out the alien babies. He's moaning in pleasure, his legs held open by the very aliens who the eggs belong to, coaxing every little squishy baby out of Rodimus' winking valve until he's empty...

They definitely come back to trade with them again. No reason. Rodimus just felt that the fuel they traded was somehow... more high quality.

Hi 🌸 I wanted to ask, do you have any short quotes about new beginnings? The thing is, I'm working with at risk youths and they will be leaving here soon, and starting their new life against all expectations- most of them didn't believe they could finish their journey here, but they fought hard and did so anyway, so I'm searching for quotes to give them that will express how proud of them I am and will also wish them good luck, y'know? Thanks! 💜🧚 I'll be super grateful!!

i’m sending endless love to all of you this is so incredibly kind and heartwarming ♡ these are the lines i love most and always come back to - i don’t know if they are what you’re looking for but i hope they help. i hope you are all safe and well wherever you are, lovely ♡

Hi all, decided to update my FNM/MB thing to be general ‘Bunglesphere’ with all the stuff associated with those 2. Still VERY much a work in progress, not even close to done yet, but spent like an hour adding stuff today so wanted to let people know.

Stuff I have added as of now other than Mr. Bungle and Faith No More:

The Animated - 4 song EP (very first pseudo-FNM thing to exist that I know of)

Faith No Man - Song of Liberty + Quiet in Heaven

Fantomas - Self Titled, The Director’s Cut, Delirium Cordia, and Suspended Animation

Trevor Dunn’s Trio-Convulsant - Sister Phantom Owl Fish

Peeping Tom - Self Titled

Umlaut - Self Titled

Madlove - White With Foam

Dead Cross - Self Titled and the also self titled EP

Corpse Flower

Of course will get around to adding everything else I can ASAP but if there is anything you’d like to be added RIGHT NOW, tell me and I’ll put it on there (and get around to listening whatever it is LOL)

My one “rule” is that I can’t put someone’s discography on there if they haven’t collaborated with someone like Mike Patton, Trevor Dunn, Roddy Bottum, etc, on like multiple albums but I can put whatever album/song they DID collaborate on in there probably. Maybe subject to change.

WWE NXT 10/2/19 Review

So, I became a wrestling fan in 2011. I watched through to about mid 2012 before falling off and taking the hiatus that all fans seem to take. In those days, I just suspended my disbelief and rooted for the babyfaces and enjoyed myself. I came back to the sport in early 2017 before the Rumble and that was when I started to overanalyze everything and look at the booking and stuff, and I think I enjoy it even more. I started to watch NXT as Wrestlemania rolled around, so just before Takeover Orlando. I’ve seen just about every episode since then. That is my history with NXT, and I will say that this was the single best episode of NXT ever. Now I haven’t seen them all, but I’m still fairly confident that this stands. There were a bunch of great matches, with really only one “disappointing” (in quotes because it was still good). There were even a few moments thrown in to pop the crowd, and holy shit did it pop the crowd. This was great, like, pay per view quality. Here is my full review of this week’s NXT. 

Adam Cole vs. Matt Riddle for the NXT Championship: A huge match starting off the Wednesday Night wars. Riddle started with a series of takedowns, and immediately looked for the Fujiwara armbar, but Cole slid to the ropes just in time. Cole started to land some strikes, but Riddle countered right away with a trio of gutwrench suplexes for a near fall. Cole retreated to the outside, where he landed an ensiguri as Riddle exited the ring, and proceeded to beat him down with a series of strikes. Cole targetted the neck with several strikes and a yoshigaroshi. Riddle fought back with a series of strikes to the chest, followed by some of his signature offense to take control back. He then nailed a ripcord knee and a fisherman suplex for a near fall, and followed it right up with a deadlift bridging suplex for another two count. He was going for another move out of a fireman’s carry, but Cole countered with a huge lungblower for another near fall. The two started to brawl a bit, trading knees and superkicks. Riddle nailed a release German suplex that nearly landed him on the top of his head, and Riddle countered with the brainbuster on the knee for a great near fall. Cole then gave him a pump kick off the apron, but Riddle caught him with knee. Back in the ring, Cole was able to score a great Panama Sunrise, but still only a near fall. He looked for the Final Shot, but Riddle collapsed in the middle of the ring. So instead, he tried the Panama Sunrise again, but Riddle countered with a Bro to Sleep, followed by a powerbomb, flash knee, and then a twisting senton for 2! The two started to brawl on the top rope, with Riddle putting him down. He tried to slingshot into the ring, but Cole countered with a huge superkick. He nailed another Panama Sunrise, but Riddle countered the last shot into a Bromission, only to quickly transition into a Fujiwara armbar. Cole was desperately able to break out, before nailing the Last Shot to the back of the head for the win. 

After the match, FINN FUCKING BALOR came out to an absolutely enormous  pop. He grabbed a mic, and simply announced that as of now, he is NXT. THIS IS AMAZING AND HUGE. 

Grade: A+. This was a great match, and a shocking opener for the show. They just pulled out the biggest moves and hit each other as hard as they could. It was actually incredible to see the two of them put on such a good war, and to open the show. It got me sufficiently hype to say that least. Finn Balor showing up was, to be frank, totally goddamn awesome. It was unexpected, and it was super cool to see him back home. I’m really excited to see where this goes. The match on its own was an A, but the debut bumped it to an A+. So while I don’t think this was a 5 star match, it was an incredible match followed by an incredible segment. Match of the night. 

Velveteen Dream Promo: He announced that the feeling we had while seeing him, was the Velveteen Dream experience. He said that he doesn’t mind fighting more than one guy at a time, and then challenged Roddy for the North American Championship. 

Grade: C+. Fine promo. Kinda deflating to come right after that match. 

Io Sharai vs. Mia Yim: Sharai started the match by putting Yim in the corner, but Yim quickly fought back with a backbreaker. Yim started to shower Sharai with chops and strikes on the outside. Sharai fought back as they entered the ring, and took her down with a dragonscrew leg whip and a double stomp to the back. Sharai stared to work over the ribs with knees and strikes. Yim was able to fight back with a fallaway slam, and both were down. Yim started to fight back with a series of strikes and huge kicks. Sharai fought back with a huge spike rana, and followed it up with a tiger fang kick and a springboard dropkick for a near fall. Yim then hit a shock Code Blue, but Sharai still kicked out. The two continued to fight, and brawled up to the top rope. Sharai slapped the crap out of Yim, and gave her a huge superplex. Sharai followed up with a moonsault for the win. 

Grade: B-. This was a pretty good match, lots of fun stuff. It was a cool mix of brawling and striking, if you kinda get the difference. I get why Sharai got the win here, especially if LaRae goes on to win the Women’s Championship later on. Fun stuff, and I hope Yim gets a bit of a push soon. 

Johnny Gargano vs. Shane Thorne: The two started with a bit of chain wrestling, and the two went counter for counter. Thorne quickly took control with a kick to the gut and a huge saito suplex for a near fall. Gargano fought back with a suicide dive, followed by a slingshot spear back into the ring. He tried to hit a slingshot DDT, but Thorne caught him on his shoulders and threw him into the corner for a cannonball, and then a powerbomb followed by a huge series of kicks. Gargano fought back, but Thorne hit a high kick, only for Gargano to respond with a poison rana and a superkick for the win. 

Grade: B+. Really good match here, and it probably could’ve been great if they had been given more time. They hit some really nice kicks and agility based moves, and I think it makes sense for Gargano to get the win here. I think that he should probably move down to the cruiserweights for a while, just to get out of the main event for a few months. Either way, this was a really good match that I really liked. 

Candice LaRae vs. Shayna Baszler for the NXT Women’s Championship: Baszler quickly took LaRae down, but LaRae popped right back up for a dropkick and a tope suicida. Baszler quickly fought back by working over her arm. As she did, the two fought onto the apron, where LaRae tried for a German off the apron, but eventually settled for a flatliner on the apron. She then nailed a triad of tope suicidas, and fired up the crowd. We cut to commercial quickly, where Candice caught Shayna coming off the ropes with a German, but Baszler qucikly locked in a Kirufida Clutch, only for LaRae to lock in one of her own! Baszler quickly fought out of it, and locked in a hanging Kirifuda clutch on the ropes, only for Candice to hit a swinging neckbreaker of the top. Baszler tried for the choke again, but LaRae quickly stacked her up into a pin. She then went for the Cabrada, but Baszler dodged it and locked in the submission one more time. LaRae struggled for a really long time, but eventually had to tap out. 

Grade: B+. Another really good match. LaRae is a great underdog, and was incredibly fiery wrestler. The way that she connected with the crowd was totally awesome, and it made for a really fun and intense atmosphere. Great stuff from them, and another notch in Baszler’s belt. LaRae can still win the belt, and I would definitely like her to, but now that she has lost, I feel like it may be Dakota Kai. We will see. 

Pete Dunne vs. Danny Burch: The two started with some grappling and technical exchanges, before moving into some qucik striking and suplexes from each man. Dunne nailed a huge combination of strikes that looked great, including a German, a high kick, stomps on the fingers and a powerbomb for a near fall. The two started to exchange uppercuts, with Burch gaining the advantage with a headbutt. He followed up with a knee to the face and a hangman’s DDT from the top rope for a great near fall. They started to exchange more and more huge strikes, but Dunne grabbed the fingers and snapped them. He then hit the Bitter End for the win. 

After the match, Damian Priest attacked Dunne. He hit a forearm to the back of his head, and hit a rolling cutter to put Dunne down. 

Grade: B+. Holy crap, we have only had really good matches so far. A British style match that blended together great technical wrestling, awesome strikes, and amazing power moves. They proved that they are great after a really good UK Championship match earlier this year, but they bested that match with this. Another really good one. 

Adam Cole Interview: He defended his use of the cast in his match, before the rest of the Undisputed Era ran up and started to run down Finn Balor. They quickly dismissed the interviewer, and left to prepare for the Tag Team Championship match. 

Street Profits vs. The Undisputed Era for the NXT Tag Team Championship: a rapper came out with the profits, and I was excited for a live rendition of their theme, but he just sorta hyped up the crowd by yelling We Want the Smoke. So that was disappointing. Angelo Dawkins and Kyle O’Reilly started with some amateur wrestling, a strong suit for both of them. Quickly, all four guys entered the ring, but the champs backed off to retain some control of the match. Bobby Fish tagged in quickly, but Dawkins took hold of him and tagged in Montez Ford. The two traded some strikes back and forth, with Ford coming out on top. Fish was able to take control after some quick tags with O’Reilly and destroying Ford’s base. As the two tried to keep Ford from getting the tag, they worked over both his legs and back in a very interesting blend of power moves and strikes. Ford nearly got the hot top after low bridging Fish for a rough bump, and then a vicious uranagi to O’Reilly, but Fish kicked Dawkins off the apron. Ford was finally able to get the hot tag, where he destroyed Fish and O’Reilly with some awesome lariats and splashes. He took Fish out with a spear, and when O’Reilly tried for the Axe and Smash, Dawkins met him with a forearm after the axe kick, before nailing a leg trap suplex. Dawkins tried for another spear, but O’Reilly nailed a knee to the face and pushed him into the corner. While the ref yelled at O’Reilly, Fish nailed a dragonscrew leg whip through the ropes. Dawkins threw O’Reilly to the outside, and crawled to his corner, but O’Reilly nailed a knee drop to his knee and locked in a heel hook. Ford tried to break it up, so Fish nailed several strikes, and locked in a guillotine choke, but Ford plunged him into the submission. Dawkins then went for the hot tag again, with Fish trying to cut him off with knee drop of his own. Fish missed and Dawkins got the hot tag, and Ford nailed him with a splash, but only got two! Dawkins started to brawl with them both to the outside, and Ford wiped everyone out with a dive over the goddamned corner. He pulled O’Reilly back in the ring, but Roderick Strong ran out and caused a distraction to Ford on the top rope. Dawkins nailed Strong with a spear on the apron, taking them both out. Fish and O’Reilly then hit the high and low and got the win.

After the match, Strong celebrated with his cohorts in the ring, and Cole came out on the ramp. They were all yelling to each other and slapping their belts, but as they did TOMMASO FUCKING CIAMPA RETURNED AND I SCREAMED. Holy shit.

Grade: A. Another great match that was made greater by a huge return that bumped it up a grade. The match was really exciting, with ReDragon making that isolation on Ford look absolutely awesome and brutal. The final stretch was also really fun, and I didn’t realize how much I missed that dive over the corner. Really good stuff. Also, CIAMPA IS FUCKING BACK. I cannot express my excitement enough. NXT is awesome right now. 

Overall Grade: B+

Pros: NXT Championship; Gargano vs. Thorne; NXT Women’s Championship; Dunne vs. Burch; main event. 

Cons: I guess they could’ve used more character work? I dunno, I’m kinda grasping at straws here. But I’ll go with that.
