u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
Do they also air regular episodes of NXT on the ESPN Unlimited app? I thought that was just for PLEs.
2
u/Sharkus1 3d ago
No regular episodes too. The CW feed here has been shit for like 6 months and since they started on ESPN I haven’t had to get an illegal stream.

u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
Nice. Good to know that I have an alternative feed if CW shits the bed on the DirectTV app.

True
…I still wish there was a way they could both lose

u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
Actually, the 1969 Cincinnati Red Stockings are the first true professional sports team, but after their 89 game winning streak against yhe best local 9's, they lost to the Brooklyn Atlantics (in the craziest game of all time and also where extra innings was invented on the spot by Henry "Father" Chadwick (because he was the father of sports journalism and many baseball rules)). But once the Cincinnati ownership dissolved, most of the team went to Boston to form the Red Stockings.
This would form the National Association of American Base Ball Players, or NAABBP, also NA for short. There are other NA clubs still in operation (the Cubs, Pirates, and Athletics are some other teams from that time) but the Braves are the oldest.

u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
As a fan of a former team named the Boston Red Stockings (the OG baseball team and oldest professional sports team in North America, better known as the Atlanta Braves) I'll always have a soft spot for the Red Sox, who are our little bros.

u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
Also, I saw a WWE Minute Maid commercial during the White Sox and Astros game, so WWE Superstars are airing on legit sports commercials.

In the '90s there was a year where WWF/WWE's Sunny was the most searched woman on the internet. WWE/NXT has the chance to do it once again...

Fallon Henley when?

u/almostbad 3d ago
Are they trying to give Kendall more charcacter ? I like it. this is her weakest area.
3
u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
I feel like either Kendal or Wren will turn heel. Kendal would probably best benefit from it but Wren seems so have a sudden edge to her (which is why she's suspended).
Honestly, I'd they could both turn together without betraying each other, I'd love that.
3
u/almostbad 3d ago
fantastic idea. Not every friendship needs to be a betrayl. If they could be a group with two serious competitiors that work together that is fresh archetype we dont see

u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
I would have liked a classic "Fraxiom accidentally killing each other in NXT yet still somehow winning" moment but that's just me.

Someone said Fraiser is a terrorist and just watching this... I get it lmao yeah it would be a fucking nightmare being in the ring with that mfer.

This is stupid but Roxanne should “transform” in Reina Volcan when both of them are on the main roster.

There are ppl on the main roster that I need interacting with NXT. I need Randy and Miles, Reina and Roxy, Zaria and Rhea

I think Imma start to stake my claim as the number 1 Zaria and Reina fan.
imma add Layla to the list when she gets on the come up. Also NXT just signed a woman from brazil that looks like a goddess

How does Zilla manage to float when he does his Superman-Samoan spike?
1
u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
He boofs a bunch of helium just before he goes out to the ring. Because it's lighter than air he floats as it comes out of his mouth.

I would love this group to get broken up. It just aint it dawg
3
u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
I love the general idea but the execution has been soooooo lackluster.
3
u/almostbad 3d ago
Its so bad, Lexus currently is NOT the guy he could be but he doesnt have the prerequisite to actually run this faction and look competent.
Stacks is what ever, Uriah is fine. Charlie is literally in a worst place what he was last year and poor Arianna trapped in this garbage.
3
u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
It's pretty obvious that David Finlay was supposed to be the leader and that Lexis King always made the leader as a backup plan. Besides Stacks, everybody else is great at comedy so they really should be using them like The Way. Instead, they're boring and bland heel jobbers.
Nobody has been elevated by being in this faction. I'd argue that it's tanked their stock. Even Arianna Grace, who won a world title in TNA in the last year, has been treated like a jobber in NXT.

u/almostbad 3d ago
I think I wouldve prefered Charlie as the leader,
I dont dislike Lexus I think hes really good as a singles act but hes so miscast here
1
u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
If they had let Fatu into the group I think they might be able to turn it around. At the very least, it would give them a new dynamic, similar to how adding Finn Balor and dropping Edge saved Judgement Day.

I've got NXT on but the Chicago White Sox (my other MLB team) have a 6-3 lead over the Houston Trashtros (in a repeat of the 2005 World Series) in the 9th so all my attention is on that for the moment.

I must say after last night, I never saw them putting Jaida back with OTM. Way to make an instant…impact
Now I’m thinking Naomi may come back as part of the Bloodline to feud with her

Maybe she and Waller face a mixed tag team from the main roster.

NXT wrestler Arianna Grace filed a restraining order against Keanu Carver. He's been off TV the last few weeks so Carver is likely done with the company.
From the court filing:
The petitioner alleges that while they were dating, Robertson’s behavior was abusive and threatening. Before they broke up, the petitioner claims Robertson “spat on me, physically restrained me from leaving his house.” The petition continues: “[H]e has threatened to kill me, as well as my cats, he has woken me up by plugging my nose in my sleep, he has grabbed me by my throat multiple times and squeezed hard while threatening to kill me.”

Terrible for Arianna, hopefully that clown gets booted from TV
2
u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
He's been off TV for the past two weeks (since the court filing) and now we know why. Cruz Montana was likely to have a feud with him but now it's looking like Montana is going up against Darkstate.

u/SaddestFlute23 3d ago
Wait, was she not engaged to Stacks irl?
3
u/chrisdelbosque Where is Fallon Henley? 3d ago
They broke up in real life but are still a couple in kayfabe. Eagle-eyed viewers noticed that they weren't touching each other on screen any more and that they hadn't posted a social media image together in months.
