88 - Too Sad To Be Hot

May 3, 2023

The episode of NXT that originally aired on January 28th, 2015 leaves us with a lot to think about and a lot to feel because it's contract signing time between Kevin Owen and Sami Zayn! Along with the tension between them, we get into:
  • Brad Maddox methadone
  • Zeroth-level men
  • 2023 is the year of Sin Cara
  • Carny switch-ups
  • Seasonal residence in wherever
  • Indiscriminate bouncers
  • "Right, little buddy?"
  • The birth of #Blurphy
  • The rolled-up newspaper of a heel headlock
  • Anticipatory blow-off boner
  • Catch the fever!
  • Order Muppet vs Chaos Muppet
  • "This Is Ours" by Mith https://mithgifs.substack.com/p/this-is-ours
  • When you're feelin' D;
Our theme song is called "Learnbuckle" and it was created by the uniquely talented Rafael Medina, whose work you can and should follow via his Twitter account, @EarthMeauxFaux! You can also follow MeganBob @meganbobness, and the show itself @nxtwrestlingfan. If you want to get in touch with Kris Newton, set up a pit trap in the Pacific Northwest with a giant pot of coffee and wait patiently. And if you'd like to support the show, check out our Patreon at www.patreon.com/nxtwrestlingfan.
