I know I won't get alot of love on this board for this opinion but Aries reminds me of Jamie Noble, its going to take alot to make him a true player in the WWE.

Im a sucker when a heel talks shit to the wrestler and fans in the match.

Still talking about the Corbin vs Aries match...can anyone ever get in at 8 instead of 9? Ever?

I know Aries came from TNA....but this is really my first time seeing him, this is the first big time NXT debut NXT has had in a while where i feel ....meh about. Didn't really stand apart to me today, maybe in the future.

Aries and Noble are both REALLY good. Noble in the WWF was nowhere near peak Noble.

And Corbin needs a haircut or plugs.

Aries is good, so it pains me to say that I really didn't care for his match. I want to blame Corbin, but really, it took a combined effort from the two of them to bore me out of my mind.

The tag team opener was really fucking fun, though! That is how you do tag team wrestling!

For me I dont' know if its because he looks like Ricky from trailer park boys, or he reminded me of Noble, he just seemed average to me. IM sure he is great and a great cruiserweight, but I need to be able to believe somewhat who Im watching. I think this guy will get lost quick on any WWE roster, and probably this current NXT roster.

The tag match was bad ass, and I look forward to the Tag Team Revival that I think is coming to the WWE.


Whoever wrote Sammie Zayn's music nailed it..... soo fitting for him.

Already drinking the Nakamura Kool-ade and haven't even seen him wrestle yet.

Well...I think we can honestly ask if that was the single greatest debut appearance of any kind for any wrestler in WWE history....because...holy shit...Total Fucking Package Not That Anyone Didn't Know That Already Shinsuke Nakamura.

Aries/Corbin, probably at the behest of the Powers That Be, didn't even seem to try to do anything beyond a WWE-style TV match. They can't all be full-speed-ahead.

That said, Nakamura/Zayn blew away my expectations, and I was expecting a lot. I don't know about "Match of the Year," because of all the other presentational things that you need for a MotY that you don't get on the C-brand's A-show... but that may endu p as my FAVORITE match of the year, just because of the bits where it came so close to embodying the spirit of the "They Live" fight scene. "FITE FORE EVER," indeed~!

Nice send-off/kiss-off for Zayn, too, as the fans and announcers managed to make his loss less significant than the fact that this, essentially, means he's done with NXT, and is playing with the big boys, now. Now that they pulled it off with him, do they really try to pull the same trick with Bayley or Balor on the same show?

We shall see soon enough.....

Shut Wrestlemania down, it's only downhill from here.

I feel bad for Finn and Joe. And poor Asuka and Bailey have to follow that. Oof.

Hater.

In all honesty, I think that match mostly sucked because of Corbin and not because of Aries. Or maybe just because of how they decided to work it. Is the reason you can't buy into Aries because he's short, or is there more to it than that? Because he's about as tall as AJ Styles, he's just a couple inches short of Balor, and he's better on the mic than both of them. I think you're judging him pretty harshly off of one match of his against a pretty crappy opponent.

I mean...everyone wants to do the "Wrestlemania vs. NXT" thing as a negative towards the former (when both are great)...but just to take this out to the nth...

What exactly *this year*...*anywhere* is going to live up to that match? Cesaro-Zayn just got erased from the record books. Wonder what else did.

Uh...yeah...completely on the same page as Matte here...when you have Aries' history, if you're going to blame someone for that match, it's not him. I don't even hate Corbin as much as most, but there was a clear bad combination there and we'll see tons better from Aries going forward to the point that we'll forget that one pretty fast.

I hope IM wrong about Aries and I admitted that was my first time really watching him. But he didn't really stand out to me, with that said Ive been wrong before, and I would love to be pleasantly surprised.

Good match. Bit of a quick ending, but it worked. Asuka's best match in NXT.

Gotta say - bit of a stomach punch seeing Bayley lose the belt. Wasn't prepared to see that happen.

That was a great match. Bayley's climb back to the title will be great. And as good as Bayley is...Asuka is the one who I'm most excited to see called up. Asuka vs Sasha? Yes please.

I was just thinking about that. And the fact that she is STILL such a beloved character, and still has all of her heat as a babyface after all this time is truly impressive. Really curious what's next for these two. Asuka going to go killer heel? Bayley getting called up, or getting a rematch? Very interesting.
