GDT: NXT TakeOver: Chicago (16th June 2018)

[DerekDevils30]

Keith Lee is a BEAST

 

[Jussi]

Keith who?

 

[CreamOfTheCrop]

Shit, again Black isn't closing the show.... Dammmn.

 

[DerekDevils30]

This match will be a showcase for Lars. He will decimate Black for much of it

 

[Cor]

Love me some Aleister Black

 

[GKJ]

Keith Lee going to run in and do a moonsault

 

[DerekDevils30]

Lars is one of the better mic workers in NXT

 

[DerekDevils30]

Will Lars be the first to kick out of Black Mass?

 

[GKJ]

Storytelling.... a consistent variable in NXT. If only WWE, a story based promotion, would follow suit

I'm mixed on that ending. Nikki didn't have to tap, but smiling while you're being choked out...I mean it looks different, but I don't know what you're gaining by her accepting defeat like that.

Unless you're going to do something like in all of Shayna's big matches she fails to get a tap out.

Aleister still needs to look good and not get too lucky or barely escape

 

[DerekDevils30]

Great start

Good start for Aleister. Making him look great

 

[Serac]

Black's grunts and screams (in Dutch presumably) while striking are so good. Just one of those small things during matches that I love

 

[Tw1ster]

With Lars and Dream, it's pretty cool to see some homegrown guys come up and impress. Lars has come a long way for a big man

 

[DerekDevils30]

Lars is strong. Almost fell on that catch

 

[Jussi]

That was smooth from Lars.

 

[Jussi]

I think that really hurt Black more.

 

[DerekDevils30]

Bah gawd its the Brock Lock!

 

[DerekDevils30]

These two have some chemistry

 

[Serac]

No more flying headbutts pls

 

[Cor]

No more flying headbutts pls

We saw the crossface and the diving headbutt today

 

[DerekDevils30]

Aw damn there's a botch

 

[ColePens]

Oh no... crowd shitting on it, too

 

[ColePens]

Come on, crowd. It was the ONLY thing all damn night. It's been awesome. Let it go.

 

[DerekDevils30]

Good showcase for Lars. Damn shame about the black mass botch as that was the first time someone kicked out of it

Aleister is so smooth in the ring

And damn Lars is busted open

 

[Tw1ster]

Make up for a botch by knocking his teeth out with a knee! Pretty good showing besides the botch. This is developmental after all
