NXT Takeover available for just 33 cents. (Because it’s one event on one day over a 30 day period. Do your math before you make another 9.99 joke.)
Giving their thoughts and predictions on what to expect from the PPV are members of the site @JoeySplashwater, @TimWelcomed and @TomBlargh.
Mojo Rawley vs. Bull Dempsey
Joey:
I don’t know these people. When I hear Mojo Rawley, I think ex TNA legend Cody Deaner. When I hear Bull Dempsey, I think ex ROH legend Bobby Dempsey. So I’m imagining this as Deaner vs. Bobby.
Interest Level: 0/10
Prediction: Bobby Dempsey wins.
Tim:
Mojo Rawley’s gimmick is annoying and I feel like bros would love him. Bull Dempsey goes by “The Last of A Dying Breed” because that’s imaginative. These two will not excite and will not turn any hands unless it’s in a repetitive back-and-forth motion.
Interest Level: 0/10
Prediction: Bull Dempsey wins.
Tom:
I’ve not seen much of either guy but both seem to be generally regarded as the worst guys on NXT TV. Can’t wait!
Interest Level: 1/10
Prediction: Bull Dempsey wins.
Enzo Amore vs. Sylvester Lefort in a Hair vs. Hair
Joey:
WHAT’S WITH THESE NAMES?! ARE THESE REAL PEOPLE?
Interest Level: 0/10
Prediction: Brutus Beefcake wins.
Tim:
LeFort doesn’t do anything for me but he seems like an okay wrestler from what we’ve been able to see of him in NXT. Enzo Amore’s schtick has grown old but he is solid. This one could easily be really boring or delightfully midcard-mediocre. I don’t care too much but I’m definitely looking forward to it more than Rawley vs Dempsey.
Interest Level: 3/10
Prediction: Sylvester LeFort wins.
Tom:
I know Enzo Amore is the guy who does the ‘SAWFT’ thing and is apparently from Queens, which is where I’m currently residing, so I can confirm that he is officially MY GUY. Also, Sylvester Lefort was trained by Lance Storm, which makes him deeply suspicious as a potential hater of charity / Tom Cruise.
Anyway, I like hair matches! Or at least I like hair matches where the actual hair shaving is really drawn out and poorly planned (i.e. every hair match ever), so I’m onboard with this.
Interest Level: 6/10
Prediction: Enzo Amore wins.
