GDT: NXT Takeover: Brooklyn II - August 20, 2016

[Cor]

Seeing as there is typically a 3 month gap in between the December TakeOver, and the WrestleMania TakeOver, it would be cool to see a NXT Title Match at Fastlane.

 

[GKJ]

They did do a takeover in February two years ago but then didn't at Wrestlemania.

 

[These Are The Days]

Holy cow! You guys weren't kidding!!

Nakamura's entrance last night was one of the best I have ever seen. I might be overzealous saying this but other than Hogan circa 1980's Hulkamania and Austin around 1999 has anyone else captivated an audience to THAT extent when coming out? Now granted Hogan and Austin did that EVERY night because of how people loved them so.

But I guess my point is that for about 5 minutes last night I think Nakamura managed to at least come close. It makes me wonder how Balor's demon entrance will be responded to tonight.

I'm not sure if I'm saying more about the Brooklyn crowd than I am about Nakamura himself but that was incredible.

I don't think I've seen Billie Kay have a good match in NXT yet.

Definitely agree about Nakamura's entrance. Amazing stuff. But that Brooklyn crowd needs a lot of love, too. They made the night so much fun. They didn't try to takeover anything but they were loud at the right times. They were awesome.

It felt like watching the Attitude Era again. If those same fans are back tonight then the roof is gonna blow off the Barclays center.

Nakamura entrance >> Balor entrance.

 

[GKJ]

i haven't seen any videos of her crying or anything, and it seemed that Bayley's curtain call didn't last as long as it should have. Now watching that, I think they're going to have that match first before Bayley leaves. There's no one else who can make Ember Moon (or anyone) look strong enough before they face Asuka.

 

[Habsfan18]

Hideo/Aries will be incredible.

What an atmosphere last night. Raw and Smackdown can't compete with the NXT feel and atmosphere.

 

[These Are The Days]

Nakamura entrance >> Balor entrance.

In other news water is wet, fire is hot, Nakamura is champ, SHUT UP TIM!!!

Jericho jokes aside I'm excited to see how they react to Balor. They welcomed Nakamura like the coming of Christ

 

[Habsfan18]

Not sure about you guys, but as a huge classic wrestling guy, I see a lot of Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard in The Revival.

One of my friends says they're two Arn Anderson's

 

[Kimi]

Well when they're flat out watching their tapes and then doing the same thing, ya they do .

 

[Virtanen18]

These live performance entrances are so overrated.

 

[iamjs]

I've rewatched the Roode and Nakamura entrances like 10 times already this morning. So epic.

NXT gets it.

[ColePens]

These live performance entrances are so overrated.

Sarcasm or just trying to be different? I think the entrance is sometimes worth the price of admission. Those 2 entrances from NXT give me chills. I connect and feel like I want to invest my time into those individuals. It makes it feel larger than life.

Nakamura's entrance was out of this world good. I have watched it about 10 times today.

 

[NYGBleedBlueNYR]

Roode & Nak's entrances are WM quality. Like those 2 entrances alone are better than most WWE ppvs

Revival ... I've been on their bandwagon since the first match I saw of them. They're so far ahead of the rest of the roster in terms of tag team wrestling it's almost disturbing.

Ember moon: nice look, I think they should've given her the black light entrance that Mrs Uso used Tuesday(legit can't remember her name). Great finisher

Aries:been lost in the shuffle, deserves something meaningful. Hopefully he got it.

Bayley: great curtain call
Asuka: needs to be a monster heel eventually imo, as it stands I think they should use an injury angle to take the title off of her eventually and let some others in the division get some momentum before she makes an epic hot return before called up

Which brings me to a question(maybe complaint). Did they change Revival's entrance music for tonight?

 

[Kimi]

Naomi.

 

[GKJ]

William Regal always says that the audience decides if they care before you get a third of the way down the ramp. Entrance needs to be the best you can make it.

 

[Kimi]

And then we got Almas after they did that special where they were talking about just that.

Roode's entrance was Glorious!

Or maybe it's just my own opinion? Crazy, I know.
