Where can I watch this Nakakura NXT match from the other night that everyone's buzzing (I wrote jizzing but iPhone was having none of it) over?

Rock has posted a video about how he's going to do the Discus Punch in tribute to Von Erich so looks like he's getting physically involved at some stage.
Reigns will commit suicide in a similar tribute.
"Holy shit" chant for an entrance. Fuck off.
Might do the months trial for the network, save pirating it.
One question though. I'll only be watching 'Mania on Monday evening with two friends, if I access it via the network, how likely are spoilers going to be?
What do you mean? There's no form of communication on the network and they don't publish results. Usually old shows have "time stamps" you can skip to and the time stamps will ruin the outcome if you look at them but if it's Monday morning they likely won't he there and if they are you either don't use them or just skip to the start of each match and not the end of said match.
Like now if you go on the network page, it tells you Sting announces retirement in Hall of Fame speech. Something that if I was interested in watching the HOF, I wouldn't want to know about beforehand maybe.

If I log into the network Monday evening, curry on my lap and beer by my side, it isn't going to have a splash page with "Relive HHH amazing victory over Reigns' or anything is it?
I've never seen anything like that. Is that via a PC? I only ever use it via my PS4.
If you're using it on a PC, I'd advise going to:
http://network.wwe.com/?&
Instead of WWE.com. If you look at that now I can't see any HOF spoilers.
Yeah, Via PC. I asked elsewhere and they said to just bookmark the PPV section and I'll be golden.
Cheers
The Nakamura match was decent. I can't see it ending up as a MOTY contender, although I was distracted at points so didn't watch it too carefully, but it was very good. Nakamura is very impressive.
T'was pretty decent but nothing special. Good viewing. "holy shit" needs to die
People were chanting it when Foley came out for the Stone Cold podcast and he said something along the lines of "Man, this is an easy crowd."
That and "This is awesome" are now chanted basically every time anything happens.
That Bayley chant is amazing.
The Bayley match was better than the Nakamura one.
Bayley
Glad to see my Bayley > Horse Face bandwagon is picking up steam.
Change it from Divas back to Womens. Actually take it seriously and put Bayley on the main roster. Job done.
Bayley > all.
I've been a long term fan. When they finally gave her the title..... one of the best thing I've seen in Wrestling, and not just for Sasha Banks making that little girl cry.
Change it to 'Ladies', and replace the belt with a sash.
Same. I said at the time Bayley carried those matches, and she did. She's just so damn good.Originally Posted by Mike

The reason it sucks on the main show is they're always crappy short matches with no build up. Sasha Banks vs. Bayley was like a 12 month build up wasn't it?
On the other hand, Sasha Banks is a bird and Bayley looks like she uses a pram to shoplift.
Happens non-stop with women's wrestling to be fair, and always has. First one I remember was Molly Holly who was meant to save the division (though there were probably loads before her too), and there's been countless since, including the laughable claims that Cherry was some amazing wrestler being wasted accompanying Deuce and Domino to the ring and she'd save the division. Turned out she had no training whatsoever.
Bayley is the first one I actually believe could make a difference, but only because she's already known to WWE fans, and already over as fuck, way more than the other 3 were. Plus she's better than them. But if she fails.... it'll just be the latest name on a long, long, long list.
That was to Smiffy's point, of course.
The 'Divas' Revolution' will go down as a footnote to the Bella Era, so they need another major re-launch.
Preferably with a new Mrs Cena st the helm. I guess his ability is sexually transmitted.
He should have a kayfabe go on Eva Marie. Everyone hates you, love; but Never Give Up.
Why is Asuka pronounced Oscar?

Thankfully they've changed it with stuff they've put up since so it just has 'end of match' or something non-spoilery, but the older stuff is annoyingly there still.
I posted some of the odds for the matches yesterday, but quite a few of them have changed and there's been some other markets added which I'll post unspoilered.
A referee to be knocked down in any match (Betfair): Yes 8/15, No 7/5
Any match to end in a DQ (Betfair): No 4/6, Yes 11/10
Conor McGregor to be named as any wrestler's opponent for Wrestlemania 33 (Betfair): 33/1
Shane or Undertaker to jump/fall/be thrown from the top of the Cell (Betfair): No 5/6, Yes 5/6
Total German Suplexes performed by Brock Lesnar (Betfair): Over 9.5 5/6, Under 9.5 5/6
Total Number of Chokeslams performed on the night (Betfair): Under 6.5 4/6, Over 6.5 23/20
Total Number of Finishers used in the Battle Royal (Betfair): Over 1.5 3/10, Under 1.5 9/4
Total Time for Undertaker to enter the ring (Betfair - From the first gong to the first foot in the ring
Triple H to use the sledgehammer (Betfair): Yes 2/5
And the current match odds, all from Sky Bet:

There's quite a bit of variation between bookies but it's interesting how some of them have changed since yesterday.
If anyone's going to post about anything within the spoiler tags, spoiler it as well.
Some of those are very surprising.
Wasn't Emma about as over with the NXT lot as Bayley is now? Purely based on her not having 'the look' I reckon she'll get Tyler Breezed on the main roster.
The Dudleys are fucking brilliant at the HOF.
As are the New Day.
Just seen this originated on the UK tour. Of course it did. America wrestling fans could never come up with anything other than "LET'S GO BAYLEY".

Use spoiler tags you twat.
Hell in a Cell to close the night at 13/8 seems good value, given they've been saying it will.
Betting odds.

Amazing banter.
I'll catch up tomorrow...
So I cracked on with the Raws that followed Mania 17 for the Power Trip stuff. Austin gives Lita a battering with a chair that they wouldn't even consider airing now. She gets hit with it about ten times while she's on the ground and then he chokes her with the edge of it.
Then the following week Jeff Hardy defends the IC title against HHH and in a hilariously bad bit of direction the finisher and three-count are only shown in replays.
Then they're about to knock Lita about again and the Brothers of Destruction turn up.
Been watching Takeover Dallas to get back into things for Mania tonight. Just finished Sami/Nakamura & it was alright, although if it's meant to be a MOTY candidate I'm glad I've pretty much given up on wrestling again. Hopefully Bayley/Asuka will save it.
WrestleMania looks HILARIOUSLY shit as well. Someone it seems to get worse every year. IC Ladder match is probably the only thing that could end up being worth watching. Looking forward to the three hours exclusively dedicated to HHH, Rock, Taker & other Attitude Era/HOFer cameos.
Renee YoungIs that Nikki or Brie in the back?
Looks like Nikki... but not sure why she'd be there dressed to wrestle, so it's probably Brie.
Asuka/Bayley did not save it, and I don't even care about Balor/Joe enough to watch that one, so I guess I'm pretty well prepared for an evening of disappointment.
First match starting now.
The size of Kalisto on that stage.
Also, having them wrestling in a half-empty stadium (even if that means there's still tens of thousands there) is shite.
