1. If you need to kill some time, here is an awesome Randy Savage playlist:

2. Do we all think Adam Cole shows up tonight? If so, what does everyone see him doing?

   1. I think something big happens tonight. Something like the formation of the rumored “former ROH wrestlers” group.

      1. I’m with you on this, Matty.

   2. The card isn’t exactly loaded so yeah it wouldn’t shock me if they do some kind of big angle.

3. Yankees have removed Chapman from his closer role.

   1. Besides his recent performance, not backing up Romine last night did him in. Girardi was fucking pissed.

   2. Good, games are too important right now. They can fix him for next year.

4. My NXT Picls for tonight

   Drew Mcintyre
   Ember Moon
   AOP
   Johnny Gargano
   Alesister Black

   Plus the debut of Adam Cole (Bay Bay)

6. After a tough week in many ways, hopefully this weekend of shows will be just what the doctor ordered and both will deliver.

7. Kurt angle looking forward to akooka vs ember moon

8. 2011 Mavs and 2016 Warriors confirmed for NBA 2K.

9. Bate and Seven vs. Dunn and Wolfgang going down

   1. Hell of a dark match.

   2. Would have loved to see that wonder if they taped it for this weeks show

      1. I think they did. Only other match was Peyton Royce vs. Sarah Logan. Lars Sullivan jumped No Way Jose before their match so it didn’t go down

10. Takeover should be solid but telling the anticipation over Cole’s debut is bigger than anything else on the show.

    I also think Almas vs. Gargano can steal the show.

11. Saliva wasn’t available?

    1. Code Orange is actually decent. They just happened to play the worst song on the album they have out right now.

       1. Code Orange is what they should show on screen whenever Trump is talking.

    2. Its a shame that they had to take even 5 minutes away from the matches to make us have to sit through that dumpster fire of a performance.

       1. Yeah, that was a poor musical performance.

12. Mauro!!

13. Great choice for an opener. This is my pick for the showstealer.

14. Why the winky emoji for Johnny? Don’t watch the weekly NXT…

15. Is that Aries girlfriend?

    1. Yes

       1. My god

16. Mauro and Nigel announcing together is pretty neat….modern wrestling nerd dream combo.

17. This match is what 205 Live should strive to accomplish. The action here is fast and furious.

    1. This is what every Crusier match should be…not four min restholds midway through that kill the pace.

18. Hell of a match so far

19. This match is fucking great.

    1. Great call

20. I’m shocked

21. Fantastic opener.

    1. Finish was meh, distracted by a dumb t shirt but great overall

22. That was the tits.

23. Was very good best I’ve seen almas look

24. Really think aop loses tonight

25. AoP stil do nothing for me

    1. You don’t like the ninja turtle wear?

       1. Its an improvement but they are just big and bland to me.

          1. I agree seems they are a team that I go back and forth on depending who’s wrestling them..loved the 3 way with revival and diy, but obvious as to why

26. I’m surprised that they didn’t save the AOP/Heavy Machinery match for this show.

27. Bo Dallas yelling at the tv, “SEE! LIZARD PEOPLE!”

28. Smart move having EY in this match. Give AOP someone they can throw around the ring.

29. This match is much better than I thought it would be.

    1. Agreed. Fun match.

30. Alexander Wolfe busting out tonight.

31. Wow Nikki cross

32. Good Lord!

33. Mamma mia!

34. Wow!

35. That match was shockingly awesome.

36. Yeahhh

37. Oh shit!

38. This show has been tremendous so far.

39. AoP getting called up I guess.

40. JR, Mauro, and Nigel on the same announce table. Talk about an All Star team.

41. #GiveBlackAllTheTitles

    1. Getting the star entrance

42. This is my most eagerly awaited match of the night. I’m glad I got home just as it’s starting.

43. Welp. That was awesome.

44. They got big something in black

    1. Oh yeah..whenever they give a guy the live band entrance, it’s usually a great sign for him.

45. Black bleeding from mouth stiffing each other

46. Jesus Christ that Black Mass was brutal

    1. Vicious.

47. Part of me wants Moon to finally topple Asuka and become the one…other part wants Asuka to stay undefeated and get called up as champ bc she’s just so damn awesome.

    1. I think tonight is Ember Moon’s night.

       1. Would need Heyman to come out hand over his mouth to complete the visual.

48. Instead of Running Butt Attack, it’s the Running Hip Attack.

49. Great near fall.

50. Great match!

51. Wow. That’s it. Asuka is never losing the belt.

    1. She’s getting called up with it.

       1. It certainly looks that way.

          1. As she should. She’s the shit.

    2. They’re playing the long game with this rivalry. Ember will be the one to give Asuka her first loss on the main roster

52. I want Drew’s old theme back. They just teased it in this video package.

    1. That Chosen One gimmick feels like 20 years ago

    2. My biggest pop of the night.

53. If this delivers, this is in the running for best Takeover ever.

54. Nice! The WM 1 treatment

55. God Bless Bobby Roode.

    1. That song never gets old.

56. Roode doing Flair’s strut down the ramp.

57. Dijak and Drew are gonna tear down the house at a Takeover

58. That was a stupid if a great move by drew

59. Wow. Huge upset.

60. HERE WE GO!!!!!!

61. ADAM COLE BAY BAY!!!!!!!!!!

62. So sounds like Takeover is worth watching?

    1. Yep! Definitely in contention for best Takeover in my opinion!

       1. Starting it now before I pass out.

63. A couple surprising outcomes tonight but a good Show. Loved they saved Adam Cole for the end.
