Welcome to “ Scraping the Barrel ” — Cheap-Heat ‘s official TNA Impact Countdown , brought to you by B+ Players Radio. This week was Lethal Lockdown— a former pay-per-view event and fitting choice for a week overflowing with pro wrestling excitement. With much to discuss from this broadcast, picking a Top Five was nearly impossible, but we managed to do it. Check out this week’s “ Scraping the Barrel ,” complete with full length video clips.

5. The Contract Signing
It's Total Nonstop Action versus Global Force Wrestling in a " Winner-Takes-All" Lethal Lockdown Match! Jeff and Karen Jarrett enter the Impact Zone, and sit opposite Dixie Carter. The owner of TNA wishes there could have been peace between the warring sides, and stresses that the decision to leave TNA was Jeff Jarrett's. Nobody asked him to leave. Karen continues to mock Dixie throughout the contract signing, and tells Borash to take the briefcase with the documents—"they'll be picking them up at the end of the night." Jeff then says that he's going to do something he's wanted to do for a long time; as Jeremy Borash places the contract inside the case, Double J blindsides the Voice of TNA wrestling with a cheap shot.

4. TNA Knockout's Championship
I didn't get the chance to watch this event live, and before I knew it, TNA announced Gail Kim versus Awesome Kong for the Knockouts Championship at Bound for Glory . What? I thought Brooke was the champion. Rewind—now I'm caught up. The champion Brooke is set to defend in a four-way competition against GFW's Lei'd Tapa, Awesome Kong, and a woman who might one day be the first female inductee to the TNA Hall of Fame, Gail Kim. The two Amazonian women all-but take each other out, and Brooke is left defending her championship against the most celebrated Knockout in the division. Gail reverses a pin attempt by Brooke after the champion countered "Eat Defeat," and scores a surprising three-count. Gail Kim is your new TNA Knockouts Champion , tying Madison Rayne with five separate title runs.

3. Mahabali Shera is SUPER Charismatic
Mahabali Shera—formerly known as the Revolution 's Khoya—is really coming out of his shell, and it seems to have happened overnight. Well, I guess being that all of these episodes were taped over a weekend in JULY, it did happen overnight. Shera is embracing the Bollywood traditions of his homeland, and is rocking his arms and hips to the sounds of his badass Indian entrance music. He gets everyone in the Impact Zone on board with what's been dubbed " The Shera"— I was admittedly doing it as well in my living room. Granted I can't do it as well as the ladies in the front row, or Big Foot , it's still a lot of fun. He's not a great wrestler, but Shera is a former Ring Ka King World Champion —and at 91-days is the longest RKK Champion ever. His match with Abyss was decent considering the two mechanics involved, and ended with Shera having his arm raised. Given his charisma and apparent aptitude, bet Mahabali Shera could become true championship material should he ever fall under the tutelage of the WWE Performance Center coaches. At least better than Baron Corbin—right?

2. Ethan Carter by Ethan Carter
Ethan Carter is a lot of things: a champion, a business man, a politician—this past weekend in Brooklyn New York he even confessed his sins to "Father Goldman" AKA Colt Cabana. What more can EC3 do to put himself above and beyond every single wrestling roster? Introduce his own fashion line, of course! Tonight Carter's got Jeff Hardy tethered by a stipulation the " Charismatic Enigma " agreed to some weeks back. When Matt Hardy failed to capture the world title from EC3, Jeff gave up his freedom and became Carter's indentured servant. Tonight Jeff drove Carter to the arena, and did his dirty work as EC3 and Tyrus sat back and watched "Cat Videos" on EC3's iPhone. Now Jeff is inside the Impact Zone , and sporting the latest EC3 creation—a suit stitched with Carter's own-likeness. Of course Rockstar Spud came out to doll out a piece of his mind, but the greatest take-away from this segment is Jeff Hardy's attire. Which coincidentally enough, is a goofy custom suit —that Rockstar Spud fails to even address. I feel that was prime real estate for a tirade, but I suppose a few underhanded comments will do, and we'll move on to a more contrived conversation ending with an inevitable beat-down.

1. Lethal Lockdown
The future of TNA Wrestling is on the line as Jeff Jarrett and Global Force are set to take on Dixie Carter's most valiant warriors. It's very telling of what sort of shape a company is in when it's being defended by Drew Galloway. Nevertheless this was an entertaining contest featuring some of the most exciting athletes on either roster. Regardless of any sort of handicap placed on Dixie Carter, the result was never in question. Especially since Jeff Jarrett publicly backed out of TNA as a minority owner just days before the broadcast. It might seem silly to have GFW win if Jeff has no stake in the promotion for the first time since 2002.

Welcome back to " Scraping the Barrel"— a weekly video countdown of must-see moments from TNA Impact. My name is Mark Adam Haggerty and I'm happy to be with you on another lovely Thursday morning, fresh off the heels of Total Nonstop Action . I think some readers might get the wrong idea when it comes to the tongue-in-cheek nature of this column. The joke is that TNA couldn't possibly have five memorable moments every week, right? Well, to be honest I've been pleasantly surprised since the debut of this column just over one month ago. Wait a tick—a TNA-centric article introduced in August of 2015? This venture could very well prove to be the cruiserweight tag titles of wrestling blogs. I will choose to be optimistic however, and look forward to continuing this tradition well into the future. But enough talk. You didn't come here to talk, you came here to sit back and watch videos. So let's get the party started with number five on this week's edition of " Scraping the Barrel. "

5. The TNA World Tag Team Championship

Click here to view the embedded video.

The TNA world tag titles are on the line for the second time in as many weeks, with the newly crowned champions—Trevor Lee and Brian Meyers—defending against the former title holders, the American Wolves. If you're a fan of uh—Earl Hebner, then you definitely don't want to miss this!

4. Eric Young Has Three Legs

Click here to view the embedded video.

Chris Melendez is in the Impact Zone —without a leg. He calls Young out, and issues a challenge for a second confrontation, so Melendez can win his BODY PART back. Young tells the crowd to look at their American hero; the former member of Team Canada says that if Melendez is a hero—he doesn't want to be a hero.

3. Six Man Tag Team Competition

Click here to view the embedded video.

The ongoing rivalries outside of the overall " TNA/GFW War " are just as important, if not more so, to the future of the company. Global Force Wrestling can't always be part of TNA—then it becomes the NWO, and eats away at the rest of the roster from the inside out. Tonight we get a six-man tag team match which helps to cross promote various stories including Robbie E's rivalry with Jessie Godderz, and the ongoing conflict between former partners Eli Drake and Micah.

2. The Knockouts Division is on Fire

Click here to view the embedded video.

TNA's Creative Department deserves a special kudos for concocting not one, not two, but three separate programs involving the very talented women of Impact Wrestling . The WWE's "Diva Revolution" might be turning heads toward women like Charlotte and Sasha Banks, but booking nine out of twelve main roster Diva's in the same program is lazy. Check out the full match between Gail Kim and Brooke for the Knockout Title , and stay tuned for the final moments featuring Awesome Kong and Lei’D Tapa.

1. Global Force Wrestling Maintains its Edge

Click here to view the embedded video.

Tonight's main event is a lumberjack match that will decide which team should have the advantage going into next week's Lethal Lockdown where "Winner Takes All." Drew Galloway competes with Chris "The Adonis" Mordetzky, with members of both rosters surrounding the ring. After Drew hits the Future Shock DDT , he makes the mistake of NOT going for the cover. As he sets his sights on further crippling the GFW infrastructure, Jeff Jarrett and Eric Young become involved with the finale.

It’s been a long week but I’m finally back! Welcome to "Scraping the Barrel"—the once-weekly video countdown series that tries to pick at least five enjoyable moments from TNA Impact on Destination America. I thought this was at least an enjoyable two hours of wrestling; nothing incredibly offensive in terms of booking caused me to step back in horror. Perhaps it's coming off an incredibly jam-packed WWE weekend, but I went into this week's episode of Impact with higher hopes than usual. I think I was probably just ready for something different. Let's start Scraping the Barrel , and see what comes in at number five.

5. Rebel is the Newest Member of the Doll House!

Click here to view the embedded video.

Women's Wrestling is alive and well on a national stage. The WWE is finally seeing the same light that TNA embraced over a decade ago. It might seem as though TNA's Knockout Division has fallen off in recent months, but this is TNA—what hasn't? Give the women credit for working with the 10 minutes their allotted. Tonight we've got Brooke going head-to-head with Velvet Sky; the Dollhouse interrupts to cause a DQ, but the story is just beginning to unfold. Rebel hits the ring as if to stand beside the babyfaces, but instead attacks Velvet and joins the Dollhouse. Taryn Terrell appears on the screen, and cautions the Velvet to read lightly in the coming weeks.

4. Chris Melendez Relinquishes His Leg to Eric Young

Click here to view the embedded video.

TNA Impact opened with a match I wasn't all too excited about—a singles bout with Sgt. Chris Melendez's prosthetic leg on the line. After coming out strong and earning and early advantage, it was clear Melendez had blown up any chance he had of catching the wily Eric Young off guard. The cagey veteran was thwarted at almost every turn until he managed to roll Chris up in a school boy, using the ropes for leverage. Eric Young wins the match, and now Melendez must suffer the consequences.

3. The �Wolves vs. The Revolution for the Tag Team Titles

Click here to view the embedded video.

After keeping Davey Richards away from his partner for the better part of the match, Edwards gets a hot tag and enters the bout like a ball of fire. The �Wolves hit a set of twin enziguris on Abyss, and the action continues will all our hell breaking loose. Abyss falls toward the turnbuckle and the �Wolves capitalize with mirrored missile dropkicks. The �Wolves are about to win when James Storm makes the save by pulling Davey Richards from the ring. The referee is distracted, but Mahabali Shera arrives to attack Storm. The �Wolves hit the "Force of Nature" on Manik and retain their world tag team titles.

2. Sonjay Dutt vs. DJ Z vs. Tigre Uno for the X-Division Title

Click here to view the embedded video.

DJ Z and Sonjay Dutt sent Tigre Uno spiraling to the outside of the ring early on, and took advantage of the one-on-one opportunity. It wasn't long however until the "Pride of Mexican America" returned in a fit of fury. He dismantled GFW's Sonjay Dutt and set his sights on retaining his title against DJ Z. With a powerful belly-to-back release suplex, Z collided with the nearby turnbuckle, and lay privy to an impending Frog Splash.

1. Who is responsible for the recent attacks on TNA talent?

Click here to view the embedded video.

Jeff Jarrett and Dixie Carter begin the main event segment by enjoying a few friendly words inside the six-sided ring. Dixie and Jeff are both happy to be working together again; Dixie says that when they team up, they're unstoppable. An ironic thought as Drew Galloway's music hits and the party comes to a screeching halt. Galloway says that he knows Jarrett was behind the attack on both he and Bully Ray, and intends to hold both Double Jay and the GFW roster accountable. Karen Jarrett emerges from the back and takes full responsibility for the attacks. A riot ensues when Jarrett hits Galloway with a low blow; the TNA and GFW rosters pour into the ring, where only one side is left standing. Dixie Carter looks on in horror as Jeff Jarrett and Global Force Wrestling are now in control.

Ladies and gentlemen WELCOME to the debut edition of "Scraping the Barrel: The Top 5 Moments from TNA Impact." My name is Mark Adam Haggerty and I'm proud to make my return to the ranks of TNA reviewers at Cheap-Heat.com! I used to write " Total Nonstop Analysis"—actually I still do—but moved it to our sister-site, Daily Wrestling News. In addition to my regular recap and review, I'm excited to introduce this weekly countdown of exciting segments. If you're ever unsure about what to watch, and what's worth skipping through, you can always count on Cheap-Heat to steer you in the right direction! This week's show featured inter promotional matches between members of both the TNA and Global Force Wrestling rosters. Let's begin with the FIFTH MOST IMPACTFUL MOMENT of the night…

5. Lei'D Tapa vs. Awesome Kong
This week saw the debut of several GFW talents, including Royal Red and Lei'D Tapa. Royal Red escorts Tapa to the ring, and introduces them to the Impact Zone , before Tapa's opponent can be introduced. The two battle back and forth in a match closely resembling one of the campier Godzilla films. You know, when he's fighting other Godzilla-like monsters? This match is eventually thrown out when both women worked their way to the top of the ramp, causing a ten-count. Awesome Kong finally took the celebrated Tapa off her feet, and slammed her on the stage. I'd like to learn more about this Royal Red dude. His beard is the coolest.

4. Sonjay Dutt vs. Tigre Uno
Sonjay Dutt made his return to TNA Wrestling after a multi-year hiatus—save for a couple " One Night Only " pay-per-views. Tigre Uno is the current X-Division Champion and is tasked with showing Sonjay what the roster of 2015 is all about. I wrote on Daily Wrestling News that I wasn't keen on this match, and the truth is I wasn't. I thought Sonjay looked piss-poor, and Tigre Uno is becoming almost mechanical. That being said, there's a certain nostalgia factor that cannot be ignore when it comes to someone like Sonjay showing up. Dutt broke into the business in 2000, just before WCW and their famed Cruiserweight Division were on the brink of foreclosure. He needed a company like TNA to get noticed on a national level in the United States, and is considered one of the forefathers of Impact Wrestling. Tigre Uno won the match, as well he should have. It remains to be seen if Donald Trump will show up and accept Tigre's challenge, by the way.

3. Jessie Godderz vs. Bobby Lashley
The upcoming King of the Mountain Match will most certainly need a handful of competitors, and both Bobby Lashley and Jessie Godderz want in! I thought this was a fun match, believe it or not. It was all Jessie, for most of the bout; "The Man" focused on dissecting the Destroyer so that he could eventually defeat him with the dreaded "Adonis Crab." I think Godderz looked a little stiff in this match. And by stiff, I don't mean the wrestling term—I mean STIFF. Like if he was the "Tin Man," he'd need some oil. That being said, he had a decent showing against a former TNA World Champion . Godderz stood over Lashley ready to perform his signature submission but Lashley shook him away and won the match with a successful Spear out of nowhere.

2. Tag Team Championship Match
The tag team titles are on the line tonight as members of the TNA Roster—Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards of the American Wolves—are set to defend against a pair of GFW Invaders. Those invaders are none other than former WWE Superstar Brian Meyers [Curt Hawkins] and 21-year old independent sensation Trevor Lee. Maybe sensation isn't the right word. Uh—wrestler? Maybe hyperbole is best saved for Monday Nitro. A highly competitive match, and probably match of the night in my opinion. When the dust settled, the American Wolves walked away victorious and still in possession of the most legitimate championship in TNA. Never fear GFW fans— SPOILER ALERT —TNA is taped SO far in advance that the GFW boys will win the titles, and then lose them to the Wolves again. Seriously.

1. The King of the Mountain Match
I'm not a fan of the whole King of the Mountain Match format, nor am I all about this title belt that means you can challenge for another title belt. That's all sort of screwy to me. But it's the main event and it's the "First King of the Mountain Match on Impact." Which is 150% not true. TNA is represented by Bobby Lashley, Eric Young and Robbie E, while Global Force Wrestling's side features PJ Black [Justin Gabriel] and the former "Masterpiece" Chris Mordetzky [Chris Masters]. An absolutely catastrophic collision of events that culminated with Robbie E taking what's been described as a "leap of faith" from the top of the ladder. I thought this was an absolute train wreck, as are most of these HIGHLY choreographed King of the Mountain bouts. But at the same time, I was excited to see key players from another promotion cross paths with TNA talent on Destination America. If only those "key players" were from Ring of Honor. This all seems like a more elaborate rendition of the "NWO Invasion." PJ Black won the match, and will wrestle Ethan Carter in the near future for his world championship. I hope they don't somehow involve Matt Hardy in that.

GFWВ – Grand Slam Tour
Knoxville, Tennessee (@ Smokies park in Kodak, Tennessee just outside Knoxville)
June 13th, 2015

Attendance: 400-500

– Tate Twins def Best Friends (Trent Baretta and Chuck Taylor)

Slow developing match with several high spots. For the finish Baretta misses an attempted super-kick, hits Taylor and the Tate's take advantage for the win. Tensions running high after the match before the Best Friends Hug It out.

– Sonjay Dutt and Chase Owens def Jason Kincaid and Jamin Olivencia

Best match on the card from the standpoint of wrestling action. Owens and Kincaid were spectacular exchanging high spots and carefully executed holds and counters. Owens executes the Package Pile Driver to capture the victory.

– Thea Trinidad def Lei'D Tapa

Obvious David vs. Goliath feel with the massive size differential. Tapa controls majority of the match using her superior strength before a surprise roll-up from Trinidad brings her the unexpected win. Tapa goes crazy after the match claiming only a two count and proceeds to slam the referee.

– Moose def Kingo Kong .

Crowd reaction for the Moose chant was encouraging but the ring action was labored and slow. Several missed spots but in the end Moose corrals the win. The crowd was behind Moose, especially when he brought out the Dusty Rhoades tribute elbow, but they clearly wanted more from him.

– Chris Mordesky (Chris Masters) def Devin Driscoll

Masters still looks phenomenal and Driscoll, a Knoxville native and former WWE/Developmental talent got the biggest pop of the night. It was a really solid match as both big guys used their strength, several holds, feats of power and some really good power bomb variations. Driscoll looked especially strong with some of the best punches of the entire show. In the end Masters applied the patented Master Lock hold and Driscoll was unable to answer the count.

Jim Cornette was introduced to the crowd and he spoke of his passion for the Knoxville Wrestling scene and out of respect gave the 10 bell salute to the great Dusty Rhoades. He introduced Jeff and Karen Jarrett who thanked the fans for coming out to the park.

Main Event:
The Bullet Club (Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows w/ The Bullet Babe) def New Heavenly Bodies w/Former Tennessee Head Basketball Coach Donnie Tyndall

Cornette, racket in hand, addressed the crowd and Coach Tyndall. Tthe former mentor did a solid job of stating his reasons for being here.

Good match with action all over the baseball diamond. The Bodies got the upper hand early before Anderson slipped away hot tagged Gallows who proceeded to clean house. Several near falls and two counts before Coach Tyndall inexplicably pulls one of the Bodies off Gallows as the referee counts. An argument ensues while Cornette moves to the other side of the six-sided ring and slips the racket to Anderson who proceeds to use it on one of the Bodies. Tyndall then does the same with his clipboard and the Bullet Club rolls them up for the victory.

GFW Debut show
June 12, 2015
Jackson, TN

Crowd was between 400-500

Former USWA manager Brandon Baxter was the ring announcer.

The Tate Twins pinned The Best Friends, Chuck Taylor & Trent Baretta in the opening match. Best Friends looked good. Crowd did not know what to make of The Best Friends.

Sonjay Dutt pinned Jamin Olivencia after a big splash off the top. Olivencia played old school heel berating ring announcer for not pronouncing his name correctly.

Thea Trinadad pinned Lei’D Tapa with a spinning DDT in a classic David vs. Goliath match.

Moose pinned 2 Cocky Kevin Matthews after a spear. Matthews pinned Moose with a roll up which got reversed by officials and they restarted the match. Moose did the Dusty Rhodes flip flop & fly into a bionic elbow which got a huge pop. Moose the most over performer of the night so far.

Chris “Adonis” Mordetzky (aka Chris Masters) defeated “5 Star” Dustin Starr (local guy) with the Masterlock. Ring announcer played up his local West Tennessee connection. Lot of back & forth and hope spots for Starr.

Jim Cornette came out to thank the fans. He paid tribute to Dusty Rhodes and did a ten bell salute. He the introduced Jeff Jarrett. Jarrett thanked the fans.

Karl Anderson & Doc Gallows with Bullet Babe pinned the New Heavenly Bodies. Before the match Bodies cut a promo on Cornette and the original Heavenly Bodies. Causing Jim Cornette to cheer on/stay at ringside with the Bullet Club. Bodies worked over Anderson until he tagged in Gallows. Cornette nailed one of the Bodies with the racket allowing Gallows to get the win. After match Jarrett comes out and shakes hand with Bullet Club.

We have seen nXt for years as WWE switched the development program from OVW, which gave us Cena, Orton, Batista, and Brock Lesnar, to FCW. В Florida Championship Wrestling then got morphed into nXt which now comes from the Full Sail Arena.

In my opinion it is the single greatest thing in wrestling today. В В Although Lucha Underground and Global Force Wrestling are just a few competitors looking to change that. В For now however I must urge any wrestling fan to try the energetic next generation.

So far Rusev, The Wyatt Family, and The Shield have already changed the face of Raw, Smackdown, and even Wrestlemania.В All who have come from nXt and the funny part, nXt is even better now than it was with them!

So what follows are 5 reasons you have to watch nXt!

The Tag Team Division:

Yep Raw has had a fair chance at amazing tag team divisions. But alas they always get overlooked.В So Usos and Ascension will have their dance for the belts and hopefully Cesaro and Kidd get a much deserved push, but the line of potential teams pulled apart continue.

No more Real Americans, no more Rybaxel, and soon no more Dust Brothers.

But at nXt Triple H is stewing some great teams.В Take the former nXt Champs the Lucha Dragons!В Sin Cara has his best and sometimes worst work at nXt and his partner Kalisto is the very definition of cool.

Murphy and Blake are bringing their best to hang, and the Vaudevillians bring a totally unique blend of technique and persona unlike anything WWE has done before.

Don’t forget Big Cass and Enzo who are over and also entirely unique.В This is a tag team division that is growing and has an insane level of pure potential.

In fact if WWE 2k16 does not expand its nXt roster, I won’t even buy it in protest cause the tag team matches alone are more exciting than anything on Raw.

I mean admittedly the Usos vs The Wyatts was tremendous but with the Wyatt Family disassembled, nXt is left providing equal quality matches one a weekly basis.

The Diva Division:

I love AJ Lee, and Paige and Natalya from the WWE Divas, while the rest of sex appeal they flop nearly every time in the ring.В I mean I am trying to exercise less criticism but every time I hear Brie Mode, I think that means Change the Channel.

Sorry D-Bry she is cute as a button but just as talented in the ring.

But what about nXt Divas… well that is money. I mean Charlotte is superior to many of her male counter parts, Natlya has stellar work there, Alex Bliss is awesome, Sasha banks is someone to love to hate but always respect, Bayley is unique and solid, and hell I even love Blue Pants… Yep dumbest song and gimmick ever and yet so dumb it is instantly endearing.

Watch Natalya vs Charlotte for the nXt Diva Championship on the WWE network and tell me that isn’t the best Diva WRESTLING match you have ever seen.

While they have a few lookers who don’t yet click in the ring, nXt Divas are the perfect mix of attractive and talented.

Oh and AJ Lee and Paige both have roots there too so if you aren’t getting the picture yet, stop wasting time on Divas and get your fill of nXt Divas today for only $9.99!

Phoenix Effect:

In ancient mythology the Phoenix was a bird of fire that would self resurrect and fly again.

Well at nXt Titus O’Neil, Tyson Kidd, and even Curtis Axel have returned to nXt to reignite their careers.

Now the man beast Rhino is back in WWE via nXt and the fans are on fire!

So how can you make the future of WWE even brighter, by adding the element of surprise when you take an underrated career like Rhino and give him the pheonix treatment to bring life back to a career.

Now not only do you have the best Diva Division, the best tag team divisions, and heart pounding action, but you never know who is gonna make their comeback?В I F’n love nXt!

Wrestling Love:

Ok WWE is sports entertainment, you got it Vinny Mac!

But Triple H knows we love WRESTLING!В And he means to give it to us!

For over a decade names like KENTA, El Generico, Pac, and Kevin Steen have dominated the internet as indy wrestling darlings.

Now they are Hideo Itami, Sami Zayn, Adrian Neville, Kevin Owens and they are all on nXt!

You want matches that redefine wrestling, well Raw and Smackdown have nuggets but nXt bleeds gold.

I mean look up Cesaro vs William Regal, or Cesaro vs Sami Zayne 2 out of 3 falls… or heck just Watch nXt on the WWE network just after the most recent Takeover: Rivals!

Seriously Adrian Neville and Kevin Owens had a breathtaking match, one of the beat nXt main events ever.

Sure nXt is not perfect, but it is becoming a real challenge to find flaws in the presentation, but it is damn near impossible to find a bad match on nXt.

If you love wrestling, you love nXt and if you don’t it is only because you just don’t know it yet!

Takeovers:

In WWE the main stage is Wrestlemania, then you get great shows mostly with Royal Rumble, Summerslam, and Survivor Series. В Everything else WWE does PPV wise is hit or miss.

Take Fastlane for example, I couldn’t care less about this show. В Get it free on WWE network, ok cause I wouldn’t buy it for $9.99 period.

Sting vs Triple H is the hook right, because there is no Lesnar defending.В And who in their right mind predicts Cena as the new US champ over on Rusev? В No one, we know Sting vs Triple H is gonna be at Mania and this is just more build up.

Rusev will go one Undefeated to Mania, and so this whole PPV is Mania filler.

But would I pay the full six months up front for WWE to ensure I get the nXt Takeovers?В As Austin once said “Hell ya!”

Everytime nXt gets to a Takeover Special it carries with it a Wrestlemania Energy every single time.В Presentation is flawless, intros are memorable, and the matches are jam packed with “watercooler” moments.

Every match matters, the job match matters, and the main events are so good you catch yourself so hyped up you watch the instant replay that comes on the WWE network when the live special goes off the air.

In closing I have been married for 12 years and if I could have an affair with nXt I would cause it is just that awesome.

So if you haven’t watched nXt yet think ECW meets WCW Nitro meets RAW and all three have a baby called nXt.В It alone is worth WWE Network asking price, so get your free month of the network now!

Then go and watch nXt and you too will fall in love with Wrestling again!
