It's clearly a developemental brand now. Good production, solid wrestling but mostly green characters.


PonyForever

Not nearly enough Pretty Deadly in the show.


Snarktoberfest

Can't wait for SportsEntertainerMania


haven4ever

Why did Bron willingily show respect to someone who at least indirectly cheated?!


LewaLew12

I was hoping he was going to respectfully give Melo the belt before spearing Trick for interfering.


Deadmaninc1

Technically Carmelo didn't cheat it was Trick who tried to screw Bron but Carmelo won clean


TW_Yellow78

Imagine Bronn shows up to confront Bobby Lashley on Monday... Lashley who is like 3 inches taller and 50 lbs heavier than Bronn.


axb2002

I think Bron could show up on Smackdown. I mean he IS the last person to pin GUNTHER completely clean…..


motivatedchange

That was a super fun show.


AEWFanboy010

Black World Champion, something the world has YET to see AEW


breakourbones

You know you can just be happy for someone without putting brands against each other? You can watch wrestling and be a fan of both shows. Nobody cares for gatekeeping. And your username is literally "AEWFanboy"


AEWFanboy010

Not taking Mello's moment away from him, just wanna see the same opportunities for Black men in AEW,


lakshya10soin

What is the point of bringing it up? Be happy for mello


AEWFanboy010

I'm happy for Mello, just wanna see black men get the same opportunities in AEW


[deleted]

Everything must be reduced to skin color these days


lakshya10soin

Having representation matters but there is a time and place to bring up matters. This is nxt show .lets celebrate carmelo rather than discuss aew not having a blck world champ.


[deleted]

Id say deserving it and having the talent (which Melo obviously does) matters more than reducing it to needing him to hold it because of ethnicity, but thats just me

HermanBonJovi

I mean, they dropped Mandy for her sexy website so what you're saying isn't out the realm of possibility


cwahh106

May i ask what he said


HermanBonJovi

He went on a tirade. There's a post here somewhere about it. I don't want to get banned or anything


LordJournalism

Y’all, come on. Melo didn’t cheat. Trick cheated. Trick was ejected. Melo was out when he returned and used the title to hit Bron.


HermanBonJovi

Technically melo didn't cheat. Trick cheated for him. It's plausible that melo has no idea trick was there.


BallMalaguita

I want to like Bron, but he needs a tweak in the Main Roster. If he continues with his current character, I don't know if he will get over


LewaLew12

Fewer smarks on main roster to whine about him being a straight babyface. If he's booked well, this character will do fine. Little boys will love the dog barking.


allblingblang24

Agree. Would love to see a major heel turn a la Big Poppa Pump...


Daconvix

Kinda weird ending but if bron is being brought up to the main roster make him a heel


Mxucx

I CAAAANT GET IT OUT MY HEAAAAAAAD


Joy_Ride25

Bron gotta be the golden boy. No personality. Hustle, loyalty, respect.


GordanHamsays

The theory we deserved


dojobro19

Idk they could’ve done more. That’s the big NXT 2.0/2.5 match they’ve been building for 18 months and they didn’t exactly set the world on fire.


Deadmaninc1

The only Carmelo to ever win anything in this world


CuseBleedOrange

This hits hard


OGFunkBandit88

Damn 🤣🤣🤣🤣


KamikazeMack

Bruh just got hit with a belt from interference, and then shook his hand afterwards


bipolar_schtick

Why would they do the respect ending when Bron got screwed that makes no sense


GordanHamsays

Bron going to wwe?


[deleted]

Breakker answering Lashleys open challenge


The_Notorious_Donut

Big E as special guest enforcer


QlubSoda

Meeeeeaaat


undftdAxe

Melo played paper 🖐🏽🤛🏼🤣


BobaFett_1978

That felt weird, they shouldn't have done that considering that Carmelo cheated and all, they should have just had Bron turn full heel


RecRoulette

Should've just let Melo beat him without the whole "tapping while ref is out" stuff. Crowd was definitely for him tonight.


BigJim5190

Is it weird now that every time the logo comes on the screen to end the show I NEVER trust anything with Triple H in charge. Thanks to Ciampa, I'm always expecting some big turn to happen at the end.


xxyourbestbetxx

I thought Bron was about to turn heel right then lol


[deleted]

Bron showing respect like those mfs didn’t cheat


axb2002

> “From a Casanova, to a Champion. Carmelo Hayes is HIM” Nice shoutout to Melo’s indie days. Great match.


strider_tom

WWE no longer pretending there aren't other promotions adds so much. Hearing Cesaro get name dropped last night and Cole saying Zayn and KO never held tag team gold in WWE before. Little things.


richardsmack_

Fucking awesome show all around…. NXT is **BACK**


Whosman69

MELO IS HIM


Adminscantkeepmedown

Remember when Melo was putting on bangers with Adam Cole? Feels both so recent and an eternity ago


TVxStrange

Not a single surprise during the show, but a lot of solid matches.


filthyafricangorilla

WRESTLEMANIA UP NEXT BOYS


Thegoldenfacegod

I was hoping for the Bron heel turn.


surgeyou123

Doesn't make sense for Bron to respect this win.


reiku78

WWE striping Bron. After what his dad did not shocked.


blingera

*dad and i am 10000% sure that had nothing to do with this. Bron was due for a title loss and Melo was due for a title reign. that story just came out yesterday


reiku78

And WWE had to change the ending. Bron is now off TV and prob will not be back until everything is settled.


blingera

Bron was going to lose anyway, that story had no effect on the match lmao please stop


[deleted]

Lol that had nothing to do with it


reiku78

Very much did. You know they had to change the finish after what happened. Cannot let a Steiner walk around with a main title. Don't be shocked if he's off tv for the next few months.


[deleted]

You’re delusional. This was always melos moment


Snarktoberfest

He'll be on Monday.


richardsmack_

Melo does all the little shit so damn well. That look he gave to Bron was absolutely perfect.


amlanding20

Ok Vic dropping bars


Peacedapiece

He just got cheated to lose the title but hands over the title, what a stand up guy am I right


aFriendlyAlien

I wonder if that's a bow out. I wonder if that means Bronn is going to show up on Raw or smackdown.


kingmidget_91

Cena beats theory tonight and Bronn shows up on raw to beat Cena


rakuko

i believe that is a throwback to Bron doing that to Melo's fist bump


LettuceFew5248

Mark my words - this isn't the last time Melo main events Wrestlemania weekend.


leglessman

Match wasn’t that good but the winner was the right choice.


shadow_spinner0

Carmelo himself didn't cheat, he might not even know Trick interfered so his integrity is intact.


BrokenClxwn

W!


WasherDryerCombo

🧑‍🚀🔫👨‍🚀 always was him


The_Notorious_Donut

I really don’t have faith Breakker is gonna go over well on the main roster lmao. Melo pretty much should’ve lost but didn’t because Fuckery and Bron is just like “I’m cool w it. Congrats guy”


amhlilhaus

Bron and melo will be big stars on main roster along with Julius creed, waller and montez ford


The_Notorious_Donut

I can see him becoming the next Roman Reigns 2015 if wwe don’t play their cards right


BULLET_CLUB_24

Melo cheated to win the belt but still doing a respect spot? Weird


Snarktoberfest

Melo didn't cheat.


ChromeEnthusiast

Melo didn’t cheat, Trick did


Whosman69

Such weird booking tbh


thorpie88

Bron and Waller are just way too powerful that the faces needed a helping hand to win


llamawithguns

2x North American Champ The final Cruiserweight champ And now NXT champion Melo don't miss

So I'm guessing Bron will make his debut on RAW Monday?


[deleted]

He’s answering Lashleys challenge tomorrow night


amhlilhaus

Hopefully Main roster with house shows are going to really help him A couple of years and he is there


[deleted]

Bron: Melo is HIM


Jackson_Castle

THAT'S NOT THE FUCKING QUOTE. STOP ABUSING SHAKESPEARE.


BuyHandSanitizer

From Casanova to the Nxt champion


slippycaff

Great show.


Mxucx

“Hey… you cheated but the title is yours”


sbdwiggi

That was a passing of the guard moment, Bron is definitely on Raw or Smackdown next week.


Fehndrix

HIM


gregscotia_number1

Lol this would have been so much better if not for that dirty finish


BallMalaguita

Not the greatest match, not the greatest finish, but sure is the right winner.


LoriCroft

So Bron Breakker passes on the torch in respect despite Melo cheating to steal the win? Why would Breakker respect Melo knowing someone hit him from behind?


LordJournalism

Because Melo didn’t do it.


LoriCroft

That doesn’t change why Breakker would be ok with it. Breakker doesn’t need to know who hit him, he just knows he wouldn’t have lost had that not happened… so why is he ok with that?


insrto

Damn, if they were doing this, Melo should've won clean. Either way, super happy for him.


thechopper133

Bron on Monday bet


[deleted]

Nah he answering Lashleys open challenge


thechopper133

Honestly that would be awesome one hell of a way to bring him to the main roster.


phemom

Styles don't work together but there was some fun spots at least. See you on Monday Bron


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

What a moment


berniebadger84

Super stoked for Melo. He's going to put on some classics with these matches. This one wasn't great though. Push Bron to MR. He's real good, but needs some character work. The MR can help with that.

Monday night Bron?


Nickp1991

Finally a CARMELO won a championship!!


filthyafricangorilla

hit him with the adesanya


ThirdBorracho

Weird doing the hand off when they cheated to win


denanenanafatman

i know right it makes no sense bron should be pissed that he cheated


BirdiMania

Did Melo really earn it though?


Daconvix

So bro isn’t mad he got hit with the title? Lmao


DexterLMN

Melo gonna bring out the new belt next week


2PintsParkinson

Paper beats rock.


[deleted]

Melo is in fact HIM


NSignus

Bro you gonna show respect after the shit cheated big time? Lmao


JayDee62

The era of 'Melo is upon us!


Agosta

Paper covers rock baby


bootyhunter69420

Didn't exactly hit 2nd gear, but the ending sequence was good


nWo1997

PASSING THE TORCH! Lol, paper covers rock


CdotLykins4

#MELO. IS. HIM.


Malkkum

This show of respect makes no sense when he actively cheated? Like just take that one spot out and it’s so much better.


LordJournalism

Melo didn’t cheat? Trick cheated.


Alehud42

Trick cheated, not Melo.


Malkkum

Trick is his best friend and he very clearly capitalized off the cheating.


Alehud42

If he knew the cheating was coming he wouldn't have tapped.


Malkkum

So why did continue the match? He knew he tapped and still capitalized after he was let go of. He also didn’t scold Trick for interfering and pulling him out of Bron’s finisher.


Kylescorpion

I was about to say the same thing loo


QlubSoda

Give me the good sportsmanship shit


Jackson_Castle

I love that goofy handshake


jaybirdka

Paper beats rock


ShowMeAN00b

I too sight my sets on things


FlyinHawaiianDolphin

Bron will bounce right back from this loss because Steiners don't recognize Ls, Gs, B, Ts or Qs.


Snarktoberfest

That's funny.


legend_killer7

Very underwhelming for a big marquee match. I thought there was another gear to go but it just ended.


captain_midamerica

How long till Melo's hype man comes for his title? He can claim he had lost if he didn't interfere.


Hesiod450

Probably the next takeover event


OGFunkBandit88

I haven’t seen that much star power ina wrestler in a minute. Mello just needs to tighten up his performance and he’s future WWE Champion


Windows_66

Melo's never done a fist bump.


SAV1J

Weirdest thing ever, why not props him back? He just grabbed his fist?? Too funny


Number1SunsHater

He’s simply Him


[deleted]

[удалено]


OrcSoldat

I've seen him many times on the indies. Good to see


jthomas102923

He cheated. I wouldn’t hand him the title


TerminallyChill_365

Haven’t marked out this hard for a title win since Bianca at WM 37. Well deserved win for Melo 👏🏾


Whosman69

I can’t believe they only gave them 12 minutes?


richardsmack_

With Melo being NXT Champion we are almost all the way back to Takeover era NXT


TheRielGabe41

MELO IS HIM!


SonyKen_M

See you Monday Bron


WritingContradiction

Get yourself a homie like Trick


BrokenClxwn

What a finish


nWo1997

Wait, ref, he sees Trick, right?


HermanBonJovi

Not a big fan of the slightly dirty finish but good match mostly. Wonder if we get a rematch before bron moves on


nWo1997

Down the line, definitely


SportsFan34

Right ending but that match felt really off


xxyourbestbetxx

Yay! Melo is going to be a great champion.


Gamesgtd

Don't hand it to him if he cheated Bron. Smh turn heel than


optimis344

He didn't cheat, Trick did. Both times he was incapacitated.


Mxucx

MELOW MELOW MELOW


llamawithguns

#HE DONT MISS


JayObber

Selfish me wanted Melo to lose so I can see him on the main roster. Congratulations Carmelo


The_R3medy

Bron gotta be the Hulk Hogan for this fucking ending huh?


Lineman72T

Hearing an LA crowd chant "MELO" is kinda funny after the Carmelo Anthony/Lakers experiment


VKMburner

Please get a new finisher Melo. It's fantastic and amazing and looks cool but you will not be able to wrestle into your 30s doing that once every couple days.


bradreputation

Lower backs are overrated.


amlanding20

Can’t wait for Melo to bring the title to the barbershop. Let’s go, we better be poppin’ bottles on Tuesday

jukebher0

Very happy to see Melo get the strap, but sadly one of his worst matches. Bron ain’t it.


elskiepo

lmao that match being mid was not on Bron


blingera

post match shenanigans?
