Zayn is great. Think more athletic Daniel Bryan. Not quite as technically sound but not far off either.

with him and styles now i'm just glad there are finally upper tier faces i want to pull for
Sami definitely is the heir apparent to Bryan. He's a fantastic worker, and just a really like able guy. One of the few guys around today that can get over with a goody two shoes babyface gimmick.

If cultivated properly a Zayn/KO feud over the IC title would be incredible and would make the 4th promotion in which they have feuded against each other.

Not incredible but has really improved I think.

Neville v Kalisto for the US title at Mania would be badass. Give them 12 mins and it will be really fun.

Kalisto can come out and cut a promo about how he is an underdog and wants to give someone similar a shot. Enter Neville.

If last night was any indication, Kalisto CANT come out and cut a promo.

Well, I didn't say it'd be a GOOD promo.

So the match between Joe and Sami on last nights NXT was indeed excellent. It took up the entire show, probably the best non PPV wwe match in years.

i thought the special was pretty good. kudos to jericho for the mic work and still getting people to boo him even after 'all american' swagger was introduced as his opponent - what a strange choice for an opponent given the circumstances. i liked the womens match and the new day/league matches. i bought in to the ambrose 'pinfall', but thought the match kind of ended anticlimactically after that. i'd venture a guess this will be better than reigns/hhh. the "if it reigns it bores" sign was sign of the night. i feel for reigns- what a crap position they've put him in (and by that i do not mean his spot on the card, obviously).
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.
