Itami, Balor, Zayn, Neville, and Owens ladder match? Yes please!
Fuck yes, with full Balor entrance. I think he could take over the Rey spot if the reports of him wanting a release and refusing to come back from injury recovery are true.

Just reading the report of the opening segment and I'm dreading the scenario that popped in to mine.......they turn DB heel against Reigns, have him join the Authority and then get treated like shit by them.

I guess Rollins had his social media stuff hacked and someone sent out a nude pic of Zahra Schreiber an NXT diva. At which Rollins fiance then released two pics of Rollins naked saying "Zahara?"

The pics are here if you are interested:Lets Dong (NSFW)

I hope Paige just wrote that shit on her arms last night because that would be a major boner killer.

Did you guys see all of the stuff on Rollins and his nude pics? Rumor has it he'll get a de-push, in this PG era.

Nah, HHH already said that it was an obvious hack and that he won't be reprimanded. More than anything I bet that NXT girl gets fired or something in the future.

So Takeover: Rival is tomorrow with the following card, seems like predictions time
NXT TAKEOVER: RIVAL
February 11, 2015

NXT Championship Match
Sami Zayn (c) vs. Kevin Owens

NXT Women's Championship Match
Charlotte (c) vs. Sasha Banks vs. Bayley vs. Becky Lynch

NXT Tag Team Championship Match
Wesley Blake & Buddy Murphy (c) vs. The Lucha Dragons

#1 Contender's Match
Finn Balor vs. Adrian Neville

No Disqualification Match
Bull Dempsey vs. Baron Corbin

Singles Match
Hideo Itami vs. Tyler Breeze
Zayn is the obvious winner here

Sasha Banks due to Bayley turning full heel

Thinking Lucha Dragons regain for merch sales reasons but Blake & Murphy haven't held long so not sure really (and don't really care as long as Vaudevillains never get the titles, such a ridiculously bad and one-note gimmick)

Really want Balor to win (was an immediate fan) and think that's going to be the case but will be through a Neville DQ since they have moved Zayn on to Owens and they will keep the Balor/Itami feud at bay for a while

Given Corbin's gimmick seems to be winning in under 30 seconds, and they are pushing Dempsey as an old-school tough shooter I'm thinking that Dempsey guts it out of an early finisher, we get a decent length match and he goes over as the lead up to Corbin turning to join forces with him or a "mutual respect" style rivalry

Itami without a doubt, but given HHH's comments about him on the conference call it's not as easy a "without a doubt" as it would have been yesterday.

I think Owens will win tonight; I can't recall if there has been a heel champ in NXT, but with Neville's long reign and Zane recently victory, it would be a nice change of pace. Sami is a great underdog and I love watching him chase dreams.

I think Lucha Dragons lose, Banks, Corbin, Itami and Balor all win.

Yeah, case has been made elsewhere that Zayn is great as the underdog babyface chasing the title so Owens should go over but I think given the whole year-long chase last year before finally "winning the big one" I think it hurts him more to lose so soon after finally getting the title.

Yeah I don't like Zayn losing so quick. I'd rather see Owens just go out there and get DQ'd while he's destroying Zayn so they can stretch it out a little more.

Will reserve full judgement until I actually see the match but I think I like the finish to Zayn-Owens even taking in to account my comment above.

Not sure how many of us are in here but will spoil this just in case

So having Zayn lose, and Owens win obvs, through ref stoppage makes Owens look strong as fuck while giving Zayn an "I didn't lose" out and a reason to chase yet again (though everyone should be chasing the title as their main goal) and allows fans to invest in him a lot more than if he'd lost straight up as that would then make his victory over Neville look like a fluke.

So this was from a few days ago but with WWE's response how long before Young is gone?

I can see his points about WWE running UAE for sure, but when WWE make you take a tweet down and then start talking about you using your real name it can't be long before you're future endevoured

"WWE does not discriminate against individuals regardless of age, race, religion or sexual orientation, and we continue to proudly support Fred Rosser (aka WWE Superstar Darren Young) for being open about his sexuality.

Unfortunately, WWE cannot change cultures and laws around the world, and thus we did not send Fred Rosser to the United Arab Emirates for our upcoming events for his own protection.

WWE also fully supports Fred Rosser's right to express his views on personal social media accounts rather than WWE's corporate platforms."
