Hey hey, back online to watch me some NXT! This will be a little quick and dirty as I am pressed for time this week. Having to seek this out online proves to be an unavoidable annoyance. Not only has Roger’s fucked over Western Canada for The Network and watching NXT on TV, they also have the exclusive rights to FXX, so it’s not like I am just sitting around watching The Simpsons marathon either… because I can not watch it. Thanks Roger’s! Alright, enough complaining, let’s do this thing!

What ever you call this time!

“Rarely do I ever have a problem watching NXT. It’s almost always solid from top to bottom. I have spent time reviewing Smackdown and Impact, but why punish myself? Fuck that. NXT is where it’s at. This is not a move for move recap, just a diary of the experience of watching the show. I wish the WWE was always like NXT.”.

– * NXT Tag Team Tournament Semi-Finals Match: The Vaudevillians Simon Gotch & Aiden English vs. Big Cass and Enzo Amore. We get the normal rants off the top. This should be a fun match… It’s comical to see the so-called-strong-man in Gotch start off against the legit giant Big Cass. But Cass’ tagging in Enzo proves to be a mistake. Gotch catches Enzo midair, and rolls over him setting up his partner to land “It’s a Wrap” for a quick decisive pin and the Vaudevillains advance.

Before there was Stardust… Johnny Ace was producing the necessary sprinkles.

– The Legionnaires jump Enzo post match and begin to shave him via electric clippers! Big Cass makes the save, so we know where those to teams are headed.

– JoJo of Total Divas introduces HHH to make an announcement. The Game talks about Takeover 2 on September 11th. All titles will be defended. New NXT GM will debut NXT week… and HHH teases that fans of NXT will mark out for who it is.

– Phillips, Saxton, and Young hype up the event…

– Devon/Devin or whatever interviews Tyler Breeze about getting fucked over in this title match last week by Tyson Kidd. Prince Pretty proclaims possessing pissed-off personal perturbations.

– * Tyson Kidd vs. Tyler Breeze. This is a grudge match. Breeze gets irated early on and walks out shouting, “I don’t need this!”. Kidd wins via count-out. Kidd mocks Breeze post match by donning Breeze’s jacket. Breeze is interviewed briefly afterwards and brushes off it off claiming he is more concerned with the announcement for the title next week.

I could just watch this over and over, AND OVER. 😀

– * Non-Title Match: Charlotte {C} vs. Becky Lynch. We are told Bailey is the number 1 contender for the title. So that’s why this is a non-title match. The two square off, and have a good little bout. Neither do anything that stands out dramatically, but that’s fine. I’d rather see this match over most of what we are given on RAW. Charlotte, of course, wins with a Cutter as her program is on track for Takeover 2.

– Enzo and Big Cass. Enzo proclaims he has a lightsaber-razor for French hair. He challenges Sylvester LeForte to a hair-vs-hair match at Takeover 2.

– * Mojo Rawley vs. Steve Culter. The story here is that Dempsey attacking Rawley last week after their loss to the Vaudevillains in the Tag tournament. Steve Cutler is here to kill time. Rawley is here to run around like an idiot (i.e. normal Rawley bullshit). Jojo is announcing tonight, so my dream team of Mojo Jojo is THAT much closer to reality. This is not a squash, and Cutler has some skils I must admit. Mojo wins. He gets on the microphone to little fanfare. He calls out Bull Dempsey. D’aww, he’s angry.

Sharon Stone was pretty hot in that film.

– * NXT Tag Team Tournament Semi-Finals Match: Sami Zayn and Adam Rose vs. Kalisto and Sin Cara. It’s a shame one group has to lose here. I’d love to see either of these teams take the titles away from The Entrance. Kalisto has fantastic chemistry with Zayn. It’s as if they have worked together when both were under a mask (HA!). This match is given lots of time, and it’s a treat to say the least. Both tandems get time to dance with their opponents and trade momentum. It becomes a great showcase for all, and this is certainly the match to ensure you watch this week.

– After one hell of a match, Sin Cara 2 lands a top rope seton onto Adam Rose, and picks the victory for his team. While the lucha celebrate, Zayn consoles his teammate outside the ring. Solid match, solid episode!

I criticize because I care. I did enjoy the show. I wouldn’t watch if I didn’t love this shit.

The WWE logo comes up, and I’m out.

I land my finisher, the “Delete Recording” and call it a night.

Tell me I’m a retard on Twitter! Yes, you can mock me on social media now here: @GoftheInternet

WTF?

———————————————————–

Sept 6, 2013. I am a clone of G. I am currently handcuffed to one of the lower legs of G’s sofa in his apartment. Yesterday, while the real G was at work, monkey nearby shrieked at me to attempt to lift the sofa. It worked! I went to thank the monkey located in an open-doored cage on the stairs leading down to the basement of G’s basement apartment, and noticed a large man strapped into a chair in the basement. I then heard the original G returning home. I need to find his magical device that created me…

Sept 13, 2013. The real Gee has noticed my writing. That stupid fuck hasn’t deleted anything, but he did taze me repeatedly. I still think there is a monkey held captive on the stairs to the second level of this building.
Sept 20, 2013. Made progress today. Discovered some kind of cloning device. I used it to clone the device itself, and hid the copy under the couch I am “hand-cuffed” to. The monkey saw this, but I don’t think he’ll say anything. He’s a monkey, after all. Some dude named Johnny Storm stopped by to say hi. Weird.

Sept 27, 2013. An obese man who claims to be famous magically appeared in the living room today. He told me the cloning gadget I made a copy of has the powers to do much more. Sounded like a bunch of crap to me. I immediately knocked him out and tied him up beside the one the “real” G calls “Barks.” Both look the same. I killed the new guy and fed him to the other captives. I think. They both look the same. All of that future-talk and preventing the death of kayfabe annoyed me. Either way, one of the “Barks” was dinner. He tasted like chicken. Big surprise there.

Oct 4, 2013. So I guess the guy I fed to his doppleganger was actually able to escape last week with help from that J.T. guy. He was screaming something about “his” chair. Either way, G is pissed and punished me all week. He said something about maybe sending me to Fall Camp. I decided to not make any decisive moves. It seems for the best. Just like the WWE, I guess, albeit “best” isn’t the “best” word I’d use to describe the product.

Oct 18, 2013. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to write here. G has been continually sending me off to ancient historical eras to collect random artifacts. I don’t understand why a stool sample from Henry Hudson is so important. And what was the point of leaving a smoke bomb in the front hall of the Palace of Versailles on May 6, 1682? I’m told I’m going to have to… gotta go. He’s home.

Nov. 8, 2013. I’ve been sent on a bunch of weird missions. The most weird was when G sent me back to 2008. See, I snuck former PM Tony Blair into Buckingham Palace and stapled old-people-face to his kind of already old-people-face. No one has noticed even until today. I still don’t understand why he made me do that.

Nov. 15, 2013. This last week was even more bizarre. He made me put on some suit and a red tie and shave my head, and then pretend to be in control of his weekly scab collecting group. I burst in, and told the vice president and current scab champion collector that I was in charge. We bickered back and forth for a while, and then G kicked in the door dressed in drag and began shrieking that since he was the vice president of the chess club next door he was taking over. Very odd.

Dec. 6, 2013: Charles Barkley recently abducted me and took me on a cruise ship with him. We circumvented the planet, stopping at various ports-of-call, and living the high life again. It was really awesome. Then sadly, today, I awoke only to find myself back on the couch of G’s apartment. Was it all a dream?

Dec. 13, 2013. Nope, not a dream. In fact somewhat of a nightmare. This week I was forced to go to work for G while he vigorously stayed home masturbating (I can only assume) and eating nachos. Work sucked. Firstly, I am not trained to do anything G actually does at his jobs, so I looked like a complete idiot. Oddly enough, some fellow who has a Bruce Springsteen complex and calls himself “The Boss” told me that my work had shown significant improvement today. I am pretty sure G’s jobs don’t involve a body count, though.

Dec 20, 2013. Just got back from a reconnaissance mission to infiltrate Charles Barkley’s place. G insisted I take the monkey from the open cage on the stairs with me. He told me the monkey was given special orders, and my job was to get the little guy into the house. I did as I was told. Once inside, the monkey went to every toilet in the house and proceeded to defecate inside the water tank of each one. I don’t know what G is feeding that monkey, but damn!

Dec 27, 2013. Shit, I’m tired. G outsourced me to that dude who always invades via the apartment balcony to deliver bass strings to the bass player children of the world the other day. Turns out, I fucked up and gave a bunch of five and six string bass player kids, four string packs, so he made me go out AGAIN the next day to fix the problem. Turns out, that for some reason, descending into people’s homes via chimney is only considered acceptable behaviour one night out of 365. Or at least, that’s what police officers in 45 countries on the planet seem to think. I have to go out again tonight, but I’m just going to drop molotovs down the chimney instead. Fuck getting arrested again.

Jan 10, 2014. G sent me to the year 2018 to find some lady. Turns out she was laughing historically on February 6th. I return with this information. Not a very exciting adventure, and then me and the monkey play a game called hide G’s sandwich. The crawl space is full of’em.

Jan 24, 2014. I find a diary penned by a version of me, 8 generations ago. In clone generational math, that was about 3 minutes. Weird.

Jan 31, 2014. Today was a good day. I got to use my A.K. Daviel Batryan won the Regal Vibration. The WW’Eh Channel is available in Canuckstan. And the company hired a mainstream darling named D.N. Goth. This is the brightest timeline.

February 7, 2014. Went to the opening ceremonies. Yeah, that’s the ticket. The opening ceremonies. Many were lost in the battle today. I live on. Remember the fallen clones.

February 14, 2014. G said since it’s Valentine’s Day, I have to do something special for J.T. who is trapped in his apartment basement. When I asked why me, he screamed back at me, “THERE’S NO TIME!” and he proceeded to watch men’s doubles in luge. So, I took J.T. back in time to ride a brontosaurus. I don’t think he understand what I meant, but I have to admit, I’ve never seen a brontosaurus smile like that before!

February 21, 2014. G sent me back to lift Jamie Benn’s stick on a shot from the point to ensure the dreams and hopes of USA hockey fans were crushed like the hopes and dreams of Canadian WWE fans unable to order the WWE Network.

March 14, 2014. I was sent to get some popcorn from the future. Corn had become extinct in the year I was sent to. I searched for months and months (since time is relative) to no avail. When I was summoned back, I was repeated whipped and forced to drink bleach. I can see through time… Then I fell down a mountain and some random redhead giant kept shoving his pet snake in my mouth.
March 21, 2014. G sent me to be a ringer in some college basketball game today. Not sure why, he was mumbling something about busting 99% of people’s brackets. I think he really must have issues with shelves.
April 4, 2014. It’s been real quiet around here lately, ever since G took off to parts unknown. He didn’t leave me much to eat, and supplies are running dangerously low. That monkey is starting to look delicious. I wonder where Diddy keeps getting those Twinkies?
May 9, 2014. Finally home. G sent me on a very long bus trip where I was forced the wear a bunny suit and eat these little pills that made me feel funny. Every once in a while, a herd of these nut jobs on the bus and I would be led down to a boxing ring and play catch. But not catch with a dog or a ball. No. We had to catch this oily guy who must have kept slipping and falling off the ring apron every single time he went out to dance. I’m so glad that’s over with.

May 30, 2014. G said there is a special event this Sunday. I asked him what that meant. He looked at me with a dead stare for about 34 minutes, never blinking. Unrelenting, he opened his mouth and then closed it, and extended his middle finger. Great. Now I’m on monkey feces cleanup duty again.

August 1st, 2014. I am free. No more being caged in by Smackdown time travelling. I am free. Charles, Diddy and I enjoyed a Wendy’s Frosty on the patio today. G was said to be in a happy mood as he unlocked us. We returned to his apartment to watch Sharknado 2 as friends. It was a good day. I only used my AK once.
