WWE NXT DEADLINE LIVE BLOG & MATCH COVERAGE

But down here I’m so alone with my fear, with everything that I hear. And every single door that I’ve walked through brings me back… back here again. I’ve got to liveblog this here pro wrestling show for you, folks.

The main show kicks off with “Heartbreak Man” Shawn Michaels making his entrance and getting on the mic and making me pause my live Colony of Slippermen so I can hear whatever he has to say.

He welcomes us to the show and says he has one question for us— are we ready?

CM Punk makes his entrance and joins Michaels in the ring and on the mic.

Punk says he didn’t want to step on his gimmick if Shawn wanted to tell ‘em to suck it or whatever. Are we still doing that? HBM calls out his Bret Hart hoodie and CM says they made up and he made up with Triple H, anything is possible! Punk has good news and bad news.

Backstage people come up and say they grew up watching him and now he gets to take a selfie with Michaels because he grew up watching him, and he missed his flight and owes him a phone call and figured he’d do it now. Punk talks about what brand he’s going to sign with and an NXT chant gets going and then he gets them chanting his name and then his music plays and he hugs Shawn and honestly I feel like I just lost time but nobody really thought he’d sign with NXT so I guess SAYING it would be kind of mean.

Now we get the usual show-opening video package.
