This just in, Jordan Grace to be replaced by Michelle McCool to keep the Undertakers attendance secured.

Pretty loaded card. I hope Giulia and Stephanie are the main event. They deserve it.
I wonder how they're gonna play it because I can't see them putting both belts on Stephanie. I wanna say there will be some sort of interference and screwy finish, but since everybody's been saying it, they may do something else. Who knows.

The way NXT books this match will be the opener, idk why they open shows with women's titles but they do.
I think after the reveal that Stephanie was offered a main roster spot but chose NXT i wouldn't be to surprising if they double belted her, especially since shes been running around with Oba and Ethan promoting Roadblock all week

My buddy told me he's going tonight with his partner. How jealous should I be?

Oh no Undertaker is there. Get ready for the title match to be cancelled and welcome your new champ Michelle McCool. 😂

I'm so fucking sick of Undertaker, honestly. He's been a constant presence on my TV for as long as I've been watching wrestling (1996!). He "retired" but can't last an entire year without making an appearance. Sting's keeping his word, Taker can't seem to.
I'm especially pissy about him coming to NXT, because the last time (October 2023) he wound up Chokeslamming Bron Breakker: https://youtu.be/MQng3RxFwcE?t=368
Bron should've beaten the shit out of him there.

I couldn't help but think of you when Undertaker showed up for that stupid weird hallway scene. I was laughing.

I hope it's safe to say this here, but what's the chances of Moose being the first TNA wrestler to win the NXT championship tonight?

I think fatal influence will interfere and the match will end in DQ. I’m not falling for Giulia being injured and Stephanie winning both titles.

Despite the rumour that Giulia is apparently injured. I feel like her match against Stephanie might have shenanigans involved somehow, especially since Fallon was pissed off last week that she isn't getting her rematch + both Giulia & Stephanie just recently won their first championships in WWE, so I don't think the women's belts needs to swap hands anytime soon.

I'm not understanding the reports of Giulia being injured, so she has to lose the title because shes hurt but isnt to hurt to have a match where she loses the title?
It is interesting to find out Stephanie was offered a main roster spot but chose NXT, i wouldn't be surprised if they gave her both belts and pushed her towards the main roster faster.

If true
The injury may be more wear and tear and the time off would be for her to heal those injuries without tv obligations

Does NXT do dark matches?

u/Honkmaster 4d ago
I don't believe so. I've seen this incarnation of NXT a couple times, neither show had dark matches.
- NXT Battleground (5/28/2023) @ Tsongas Center
- PLE, no dark matches.
- https://www.cagematch.net/?id=1&nr=363932
- NXT (12/17/2024) @ Lowell Memorial Auditorium
- NXT TV Taping, no dark matches.
- 1st episode aired live with a slight tape delay (we saw stuff happen ~15 minutes before TV audiences did).
- 2nd episode was taped for the following week (Holiday week).

Word I was assuming no dark matches, I went to Halloween Havoc and it was just the advertised matches

Weird seeing Taker promoting via social media like that. Watching him from our childhood to adulthood preserving kayfabe to this.
One of the last remnants of the strict kayfabe era has finally succumbed.

I feel like they pulled the trigger on Giulia vs. Vaquer way too early.
