88 - Too Sad To Be Hot

The NXT Wrestling Fan

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;
