Adam Cole's finisher looks very similar to Bryan's running knee. It may work well for him.

I want Cole to prove me wrong but I see nothing good about him apart from his BAY BAY shout. He just looks like a NXT jobber and not a good one at that.

I've been a huge proponent of Adam Cole coming to WWE for quite a long time, because I think his style blends nicely with their roster. With that being said, now that he's there, he looks so small. I don't see any way he finds success on the main roster, regardless of how good he is, unless he bulks up.

I'm glad its not just me that thinks Adam Cole looks small, he's safe while in NXT but I can see Vince not taking to him.
Anyone find it weird that they allowed two matches to finish back to back via top rope elbow drop?

Didn't miss anything this week! Ha. Lars Sullivan - Christ! He could be a big deal if handled properly, I reckon (and hope) Adam Cole looks to have lost quite a bit of weight - I'm not just seeing things, surely... Evidently not - glad you other blokes think so. After seeing Roddy and Drew kill it in PWG, I was pleasantly surprised by how good their match was here - and the prospect of a mini-Mount Rushmore 2.0 reunion is quite intriguing. Would’ve preferred it if Lars Sullivan didn’t talk just yet. Still biased towards the Iconic Duo - their facial expressions are priceless. Good to see Kairi but part of me wonders how different things would’ve been if Io had come across after all. Aliyah has improved a fair bit, which is great.

Glad it's not just me that thought Cole looked tiny 😂

I decided to watched NXT this week. I liked the 3 way match between Royce, Morgan and Cross. Interesting how Taynari Conti might be joining the Undisputed Era. Royce winning was fine. The Velveteen Dream vs Lio Rush was good. If Lio Rush had a mask, i swear he'd be the black Rey Mysterio. Wasn't too familiar with his work. From what i seen, he has 205 Live written all over him. I know that sounds like an insult, but trust me, I'm becoming a fan. Speaking of becoming a fan of, The Street Profits. That team was entertaining as f***. I honestly don't see future tag champs in them. .......yet, but they're entertaining the hell outta me. Main event was great, though not as great as their Takeover Brooklyn match. Gotta get this out the way, Zelina Vega is hot af. Ok, back to the match, loved the finish where Gargano almost let the DIY shirt lose his focus, but at the end lost the match with the knees on the back of the head. Looked good. Gargano is one of those wrestlers that despite losing, he still looks great. Good episode, glad i decided to tune in
EDIT: Forgot about the Lars Sullivan vs Danny Burch match. It was pretty the type of match his character is supposed to have, so it was good to out

I really don’t care for Lars or characters exactly like him that have come in the past. I think he needs a mouthpiece. His promo last week was pretty awful.
I love that they’re pushing Cien. I like his character direction and giving him a manager/valet has helped out a lot. He’s also really good in the ring. I wouldn’t mind seeing him get a shot at the Title at a Takeover.
Gargano is always great.
I’m hoping they aren’t adding that chick to the Undisputed Era (still not crazy about that name). They don’t really need her. I’m assuming they were just trying to find a way to mess with a Sanity member.
The women’s match wasn’t my favorite but it also had Liv Morgan in it. Glad Royce won it but I always wonder why Billie Kay is rarely getting the chances. I’m assuming Ember will be one of the participants in the Fatal Four way as well.

Still fairly impressed with Sullivan - as long as he doesn’t talk. Danny Burch is good value too. Great to see that Royce wasn’t affected by that strange spot with Cross earlier on - here’s hoping she has a good showing in the Fourway down the line. Lio Rush is just as crisp as I remember from seeing him on the indies, and Dream did well to keep up. Gargano and Almas have awesome chemistry, no denying that - a superb showing from both guys as they had the time to do so...but where Gargano goes from here is a mystery for me...

Adam Cole needs to start eating like a body builder. Even when he debuted at Takeover, he looked like a teenage girl compared to Drew.
Whats with all these knee/stomp finishers? They need to get creative with these things.

They need to get creative with these things. They just need to let him use the Figure Four and then have the Florida Key be his regular finisher. The Key has that Perfect-Plex feel to it imo. He's always done the Shining Wizard as a signature but I agree it doesn't do him any favors as a finisher in WWE. It's too easy for people who hate him to go, "whelp, another Indie guy!" I think people are forgetting how small Seth Rollins looked when he signed to FCW. Go back and watch DBDVIII with Davey, Rollins was pretty small in his own right. I think it's inevitable that Cole will bulk up. He's never really been a gym guy. Now he's got a chance to become one. Guy has abs for the first time since like 2009. Comparing him, or anyone, to Drew is silly though. Drew is a solid 6'5. He was the Chosen One for a reason. Drew is a genetic jackhammer.

If I'm not mistake Drew was never really a massive guy (muscle wise). When he returned that was the first thing I noticed, the guy is jacked. The thing comparing him to Cole is the mass thing. There's guys like Aj Styles who are way shorter than guys but because they are more muscular and thick, it doesnt look quite ridiculous. Cole is just too skinny and short. Hopefully he bulks up and gets a new finisher. All these guys have double stomp, running knee, kicking finishers

It doesn't get talked about enough, but I love how Zelina Vega is a legit manager. She's not just with Almas because they're a couple or as his arm candy. She's a businesswoman who is trying to get her client more opportunities. I'd like to see her build a stable full of clients at some point.

I love Locan and Burch’s theme music. It has a cool early 80’s punk vibe to it.
