411’s WWE NXT Report 5.29.14

  • Welcome!
  • Remember, ladies and gentlemen, that match times are NOT exact. Now strap in and come enjoy Thursday night’s WWE Network programming with me as we take this magical journey together.
  • They open with a PPV level opening video package. It talks about putting over the future and shows clips of NXT talent on the WWE main roster (Paige, Wyatts, Big E, Rusev, etc.). It’s time for NXT Takeover!
  • Adam Rose and his Rosebuds are marching into the arena from the outside area, fully in costume and ready to party nonstop. Regal even says he went out with Adam Rose the other night. I hope they turn that into a reality show. Regal and Rose out on the town, getting into foreign shenanigans and doing CRAZY things!
  • My internet IS being a bit spotty, no idea if it’s me, the Network, or a combination of both. So if I get a bit behind just bear with me and I’ll do the best I can.

    Adam Rose vs. Camacho

    They start out early with Camacho taking control quickly. He lays the boots in and gives Rose a HUGE butterfly suplex for a two count. Camacho locks in a cobra clutch type deal as the crowd enthusiastically sings Rose’s music to get him to come back to life. It works as Rose gets a bit of an arm drag. Camacho quickly cuts him off…. BUT ROSE IS ROSING UP! But no, none of that. Big boot from Camacho for another two count. Camacho goes back to that Cobra Clutch deal and the crowd really begins to get behind Rose again. He tries to fight out but once again Camacho just cuts him off. This time Rose kicks out at one. Camacho picks him up and hits a few headbutts, just like his dad. He whips Rose off but he cuts him off with a kick. Rose comes out of the corner and throws a few punches followed up with one big one and Camacho is down! Camacho tries to cut Rose off again but HE HITS THE SPINEBUSTER! ARN ANDERSONESQUE! Big running elbow in the corner from Rose followed by a majestic hair flip and the Choo Choo bronco buster deal in the corner! Rose hits the party foul and gets the cover for the win.

    OFFICIAL RESULT: Adam Rose @ 5:00 via pinfall (Party Foul)

  • They air a Sami Zayn hype in preparation for his big number one contender match with Tyler Breeze tonight. This piece is actually really cool. It reminds me of a UFC style hype. It makes the match FEEL like something. Good work, WWE production staff!
  • Tyler Breeze has entered the building!

    NXT Tag Team Titles: The Ascension © vs. Kalisto and El Local

    On a personal note, I’m hoping that this is the end of the Ascension’s tag title reign as I’m not the biggest fan. We’ll see though. I’m just a lowly wrestling writer after all. Ascension start out by straight up bum rushing our masked heroes. They whip them off the ropes and the two come back with stereo ranas! TAKE THAT STUPID ASCENSION! They go for what I assume are dives and I lose my internet. It comes back and The Ascension are in total control. Sorry, guys. Kalisto is tied up in the corner and Viktor drives him straight into the mat with a clothesline. He locks in a headlock and really starts to work it over. Viktor then throws Kalisto straight to the outside. Conor then throws him against the ropes on the outside and Kalisto bounces right off. He goes for a second but Kalisto holds himself. Viktor runs at thim but Kalisto grabs him in a headscissors type deal and drives him to the apron! Awesome! He goes for the tag on the inside but gets cut off. They’re really doing a good job playing up that dominant monster heel deal. AND KALISTO HITS AN OVERHEAD HEADSCISSORS AND GETS EL LOCAL TAGGED IN! BEAUTIFUL! Local gets a babyface springboard forearm on Viktor. Viktor throws him to the corner but he stops short and hits a moonsault. Local goes for the cover and only gets a 2. Kalisto runs a bit of interference allowing Local to get up top but he misses his dive and eats an STO from Viktor in the middle of the ring. Fall of Man on El Local and that’s the end of it.

    OFFICIAL RESULT: The Ascension @ 6:00 via pinfall (Fall of Man)

  • They air a hype for Tyler Breeze, very similar to the one that’s already aired for Sami Zayn.

    Number One Contender: Sami Zayn vs. Tyler Breeze

    I could be wrong, but I think this is new music for Zayn. And I have to say, I’m a fan. It’s super ska like. I feel like moving and grooving! Breeze is also now singing his music. Tyler Breeze is professional wrestling. The two start off wrestling back and forth. Zayn ends up taking control with a top wrist lock type deal. Breeze grabs the hair and fights Zayn into the corner. The ref counts them out and Zayn gets a side headlock. By the way, if you weren’t aware, Zayn is actually the best wrestler in the entire company. He hits a big dropkick and throws Breeze into the corner. He goes for another whip, Breeze reverses, but Zayn gets him with a shoulder. He pops up to the top rope and throws a kick, but Breeze catches it and throws Zayn to the outside! Woah! He’s out on the outside for eight before rolling back in. Breeze gets him into the corner and begins laying his beautifully tasseled boots in. He gets a choke and the ref counts a five, forcing Breeze to break. Breeze drags Zayn out into the middle of the ring, drops a knee, and gets a one count. Breeze continues to control. He gets a side headlock and runs Zayn into the second turnbuckle with a bulldog. Breeze continues to control until he goes for a DDT type maneuver but Zayn is able to throw him off. He gets Breeze to chase him and pulls the top rope down, sending Breeze to the outside. AND THEN HITS AN ASAI MOONSAULT TO THE OUTSIDE! SAMI ZAAAAAAAAAAYN! Tell me this guy isn’t the future, I dare you. El Generico’s teaching has really paid off. A big top rope crossbody nets Zayn a 2 count. Tyler tries to fight off but Zayn pulls him back into a BIG BLUE THUNDER BOMB! AHHHH! TWO COUNT! The crowd chants one more time, and I agree. Zayn climbs up top though but Breeze is up. Zayn jumps over him and runs back but Breeze is able to get a modified DDT for a 2! Breeze tries to pull Zayn up out of the corner and does so RIGHT INTO A POWERBOMB! WOAH! TWO COUNT AGAIN! Also, side note. Know how you know this match is serious? Breeze’s hair is down. That’s the equivalent of Angle pulling down the straps. For real. Breeze picks Zayn up in the corner and begins throwing punches. Zayn tries to block but Breeze just keeps slugging as the ref counts him off. He goes for something, but Zayn counters with an exploder into the turnbuckles! Both men are down and my flash player crashes so I hit refresh and I’M REALLY HOPING FOR THE BEST HERE! Thankfully the magic of replay shows me that Breeze is able to hit his kick finish but it only nets a 2. Tyler Breeze throws a couple serious right hands. He tries to fight Zayn off the ropes but Zayn won’t have it. He picks Breeze up and flips him over but BREEZE COUNTERS! NO! ZAYN STANDS! ORANGE CRUSH! ONLY! A! TWO! AHHHH! MY INTERNET JUST DIED! Ugh, the neverending trials of a Network owner. My stream comes back and Tyler Breeze has won. The replays show me that Zayn hit the Helluva Kick but Breeze hit him down low and got his wheel kick.

    OFFICIAL RESULT: Tyler Breeze @ 14:00 via pinfall (Spinning Wheel Kick)

  • Still to come, we have the Women’s title match and the NXT Title match.
  • The ring announcer brings out Lana. She foregoes her usual Hail Putin deal and just brings out Rusev who is proudly waving a Russian flag. I also would like to take this time to talk about how much I absolutely LOVE Rusev’s entrance music. Lana finally goes to speak and MOJO RAWLEY CUTS HER OFF! FOR AMERICA! HE SAYS HE’S GONNA SHOVE A FLAG UP RUSEV’S POOPER! Mojo hits the ring and Rusev immediately lays him out. He throws Mojo into the corner and hits the big corner splash. Accolade. And ladies and gentlemen, I was mistaken. Mojo succumbs to Rusev, JUST LIKE THE REST OF THE WORLD HAS! Rusev throws Mojo to the outside of the ring and poses to a chorus of boos. He’s stopped the hype, and the crowd doesn’t like that. Lana does her RUSEV CRUSH yell and Rusev goes up the ramp to Mojo. He locks The Accolade in on the ramp and sits there with his icy terminator eyes. Lana then walks up to him and tells him to release the hold. It’s odd that they would have him do this to Mojo and not some random scrub. I’m also surprised at the lack of a Big E appearance.
  • They show Charlotte walking backstage with her father, Ric Flair.
  • They show a hype video for Charlotte vs. Natalya for the vacant Women’s Championship.
  • Kris Kristofferson is at ringside!
  • Out comes Divas Champion, Paige. She gets on the microphone and says it’s amazing to be home at NXT. She says that this is going to sound cheesy and cliché, but she wants to thank each and every one of the fans. She wants to thank them because she wouldn’t be where she is today without them and NXT. And she wouldn’t be the WWE Divas Champion. She says talking about championships, she couldn’t be prouder of being the first ever NXT Women’s Champion. She says tonight we’re going to be crowning a new champion and this new champion has to have strength, character, and grace, because while holding the NXT Women’s Championship she is holding the key to the future. And Paige says holding that can lead to the Divas Title. Good thing Natalya is in this match, then. Paige says thank you and enjoy the rest of the show because it’s going to be memorable.

    NXT Women’s Championship: Charlotte w/ Ric Flair vs. Natalya w/ Bret Hart

    Lock up to start the match. Natalya gets the advantage early and gets a quick cover for one. Natalya gets a rear waistlock and takes Charlotte down. Charlotte counters out into a grounded hammerlock. Natalya gets up to her feet and counters into a fireman’s carry. Charlotte counters that into a grounded headscissors. The two stand up and lock up again and Natalya gets a quick headlock takedown. Charlotte powers out and there’s a mini stand off. They lock up again and Natalya goes after the arm. Charlotte counters with a cartwheel and gets Natalya down to the ground with an arm bar. Natalya counters that into a leg hold. Seeing divas WRESTLE is weird, even if it’s happening more and more. Not a bad thing, just a new thing. And I like it. Natalya gets her into another serious submission but Charlotte fights out. She gets Natalya into a headlock. Natalya counters into one of her own and lets out a woo and gets some heat. YOU CAN’T WOO. ONLY ONE MAN WOOS. Eventually Natalya gets a wheelbarrow and victory rolls but it’s only for a two. And then she locks in a rear bodyscissors and gets a sleeper type of move locked onto Charlotte. I have my first internet breakdown in a while. And this one is considerable. I’m back and they’re in a figure four battle. I’ve switched to my Xbox. Let’s hope we have better luck. I apologize for this MASSIVE information gap. The two roll all the way to the ropes and Charlotte pulls her down to the floor. Charles Robinson forces them to break the hold. I can’t tell you the exacts because of these connection issues, but Charlotte does win with her finisher.

    OFFICIAL RESULT: Charlotte via pinfall

  • The Network is giving me SERIOUS issues. The main event is up, hoping I can get you all the coverage you deserve.
  • Adrian Neville def. Tyson Kidd via Red Arrow. I will get real recaps of this and the Divas match up tomorrow! I WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN!
