8/9 Shore's NXT Live Coverage: Will the season that never ends finally announce an elimination?
Aug 9, 2011 - 09:00 PM


By Chris Shore

WWE NXT on WWE.com
Live from Sacramento, Calif.


The opening video aired, and Todd Grisham and William Regal sent it up to Matt Striker in the ring. Striker had a table with a bowl off eggs and three spoons. He started to explain the contest was an egg relay and Darren Young cut him off.

Young came to the ring and said he wasn't doing any stupid contests and recounted all his past accomplishments. Striker said he didn't care if Young did it or not and went on. Young cut him off and said Striker couldn't cut it in the ring.

Striker said he was happy to be doing what he was doing and all Young does is talk about the past when he needed to be worried about his future. Young said he was right and he was going to start worrying about his future right then. He clocked Striker and left the ring. He challenged Striker to a match and the crowd popped big…

Backstage, Tyson Kidd was asked about facing NXT alumni Justin Gabriel. Kidd said he was the alumni of the greatest wrestling school in history, and he was greater than all the legends that came before him in the dungeon. He said he would show Gabriel that tonight…

Shore's Slant: I guess this is good news. At least no stupid challenge. Can't say I'm excited about seeing Striker wrestle again, but it beats an egg relay. And Tyson Kidd has the weirdest looking face I have ever seen. When he smiles, he looks like one of those sock puppets from Little Big Planet.

1. Justin Gabriel defeated Tyson Kidd at 14:40. They traded blows to start and then Gabriel sent Kidd to the floor. He went for a moonsault, but Kidd kicked his legs and then they botched something that sent both guys to the floor to recover…[C]

Back from commercial, Kidd worked a headlock. Gabriel slipped out and hit several kicks and strikes. He hit an enziguri and went to the top. Kidd rolled to the floor, and Gabriel hit a corkscrew plancha on the floor. He rolled Kidd in the ring and hit a cross body that Kidd rolled through for two.

Gabriel locked in a strange submission hold around Kidd's neck. Kidd made the ropes and Gabriel went back up for the 450. Kidd swept the legs and climbed up on the outside. Gabriel slugged him on the chest, and Kidd kicked the shit out of Gabriel. He hit a springboard Frankensteiner for two. There were several more near falls by trading moves and then Gabriel hit a STO. He followed with a 450 spalsh for the win…

Shore's Slant: Wow, I didn't expect a 15 minute match and wasn't ready for it. Very good work from both men. Justin Gabriel has money as a babyface. I've known it for a while, but that just proved it. Definitely see this match. Especially that kick from Kidd on Gabriel in the corner.

2. Darren Young defeated Matt Striker at 4:$4. Striker looks like somebody put Chris Masters in a dryer. Striker went right at Young and showed he was out of ring shape pretty quickly. Young hot a neckbreaker on the apron to take control. Young hit an overhead belly to belly suplex and their heads collided. Striker bled from the nose and hit a Gory bomb, but Young hit his finisher for the win…The announce team hyped Derrick Bateman vs. Titus O'Neil for later…[C]

Shore's Slant: Jason always wants us to give good analysis in these spots. And contrary to your hate mail, most times I do. But what do you say about that? Young didn't look impressive beating a guy who's been holding a microphone for three years, and the other guy has been HOLDING A MICROPHONE FOR THREE YEARS. Who cares?

A video recapped the C.M. Punk vs. John Cena feud…Backstage, Daniel Bryan found Derrick Bateman playing one of the WWE video games. He turned the TV off and told Bateman he had been making a fool of himself, and until he figured out who he was, he was on his own…[C]

3. Titus O'Neil (w/Hornswoggle and AJ) defeated Derrick Bateman at 3:33. The bell rang and the crowd died. Seriously, there was no sound. Wow. Bateman hit a drop kick in the corner for a near fall. He tried for a sunset flip, but O'Neil dropped to his knees and scored the pin. Post-match, Bateman attacked O'Neil from behind. He went after Honry next. AJ just watched. Way to be a good woman there AJ. Horny escaped and O'Neil hit his finisher on Bateman. Horny hot the tadpole splash and all three celebrated to close the show…

Shore's Slant: Talk about a show that was all downhill. This match was terrible. Even worse than Striker and Young. The opening match was hot, but that was it. This show will never, ever end, will it? Thanks for watching along with me tonight.
