After the Road to Redemption hit a pretty major buffer, what is next for Sami Zayn?
*Bayley vs. Becky Lynch *The Vaudevillains (Aiden English & Simon Gotch) vs. "The Lucha Dragons" *Baron Corbin vs. Elias Sampson *Bull Dempsey vs. Steve Cutler *CJ Parker vs. Tyson Kidd *Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady vs. The Mechanics (Dash Wilder & Scott Dawson)
Those quotation marks in the second match are important, by the way...
Last week on NXT, Adrian Neville appeared to suffer a knee injury following a failed Red Arrow, but Sami Zayn was just too trusting. Instead of taking advantage of the injury, Zayn was suckered in, and Neville rolled him up to retain his NXT Title... whilst still seemingly being injured. Tonight on NXT, we will hear from Zayn - how does he explain what happened, and how will he react to all this? And is Neville really hurt, or did he pull a really fast one on his "friend"?
Elsewhere this week, The Vaudevillains look to make a statement ahead of a future Tag Team Title shot, Baron Corbin and Bull Dempsey both get opportunities to see who's more dominant, and Bayley has a great chance to get revenge on the latest "friend" who turned on her, Becky Lynch. All this from 4pm ET (with repeats at 9pm ET and Midnight ET, and on demand) on the WWE Network.

In my opinion, 4 or 5 matches in the show should be enough. Couldn't Parker vs. Kidd be held next week?

Huge potential spoiler {Spoiler} According to some people on reddit, there is a video package on Kevin Owens and they announce his debut for TakeOver: Our Evolution.

I like that they seem to be building Bull and Corbin to face each other.

Thoughts on the Show: {Spoiler} -Bayley keeps losing due to opponents grabbing her tights. Next week she will counter by not wearing any.
- I really like the video apron. Not much to this thought but its pretty neat.
- D'aww! HUG! Really like Charlotte and Bayley. Its nice to see a complex friendship on wrestling for once.
- Renee's Lucha Loompas comment made me groan. Well played.
- BAH GOD. THOSE AIRPLANE SPINS. SOMEBODY STOP THE DAMN MATCH!
- Vaudevillians win a hard fought match. Actually act like Villains for once.
- Anyone want to bet whether that Steen promo makes some people confused as to why Bray Wyatt's coming back to NXT? I like the video but it doesn't show off much. "Here is Kevin's face. He'll be here for our pay per view. See you next week"
- Love the crowd chanting along with Baron's matches. Love it. Hilarious in the best kind of way.
- HOW THE HELL DID THEY JUST SWITCH OUT JOBBERS LIKE THAT. ITS MAGICAL.
- Hahahahaha, the crowd booing bull for not finishing his match as fast as Baron is pretty amazing. "Baron's better!"
- Oh man I thought CJ Parker was due to win one. But not really.
- See No Evil 2 seems to have the production quality of old College Humour skits. Do with that as you will.
- Cass, Enzo and Carmella are pretty awesome as a team. Love the entrance
- Really like how Cass and Enzo work as a team, you rarely see that kind of teamwork anymore.
- Carmella booking it like a champ when Ascension attacks. "Enzo and Cass are down? Seeya later guys!"
- Guest stars on Raw? Aww shit, We're back into this era again aren't we?
- Sami threatening to quit if he doesn't win the NXT title from Neville. He IS the new best in the world!

Good show again. Random thoughts:
• Nice women's match. I hope Bayley doesn't get pushed aside in the next few months • Still not feeling Sasha and Becky together, and the post match taunting was lame. Charlotte looked like a boss coming down though. • Loved the little segment backstage, and Bayley hugging Charlotte was so sweet • The music isn't quite as good, but I love the intro to the Vaudevillains • Bit disappointed that NXT went with the "little people are funny!", though I appreciate the fan chants • Commentary in general (not just Riley) is one of the low points of NXT. None of them could pick a side whether they thought it was funny or distasteful, and it just led to a muddled narrative. • The Steen/Owens video was fine. Short and sweet • I don't mind Baron Corbin, but all the talk of his "presence" is excessive • LOVE the fans counting along. • Would have been nice if they'd made a bigger deal of Bull and Corbin walking past each other • Hate the flying headbutt anyway, but Bull sure has a shitty one • I was distracted having never noticed CJ's ass tattoo before • Love Enzo, Big Cass and Carmella, but that was a nothing match • The Ascension...boring • Good final promo. Neville is a little shaky on the mic, sure, but he gets the job done. Sami...what can't he do? Great wrestler, great promo...he has star written all over him. Loving this feud.

My thoughts: Bayley vs. Lynch was crap. Like that Bayley is being more aggressive but they need to find something else for the women than "beats Bayley a lot"
Bayley is going to do something stupid next week isn't she?
Lucha Loompas was a great line and the whole thing a great segment.
Steen is without a doubt giving the title to Sami at T:OE. I'd put good money on Sami being a heel by the end as well.
I love Baron's street light entrance. I did fear that the jobber broke his leg on the finish. He may need something else for the taller guys.
Loved Bull and Baron passing by with little acknowledgement. The crowd counting and declaring Baron's better was great.
Tyson's skin being the same color as his jacket was disturbing.
Finn/Kidd should be awesome.
Still not feeling Carmella with Cass and Enzo.
I've said for months I want Zayn to take the title and turn heel and I love it seems to be going this way. Zayn finding his darkside after all the good in his life has failed him will be amazing.

Amazing how twice Bayley's tights have been pulled, yet not enough to make it REALLY fun. Not sure of Charlotte pretty much being Bayley's mum now.
I'd have Owens have his first match on Takeover 3. If they just say he's coming, and we don't see him before Neville/Zayn, totally telegraphed...
Can't wait for Bálor/Kidd next week. Bálor and Itami vs. The Ascension, not so much, unless it's completely one sided like Bálor's debut.
Just get the sense that Owens gets involved and helps Zayn win the title. Almost like Austin/Rock at The Mains 17, where Austin would do ANYTHING to get the title, same with Zayn.

Riley gets ripped on a lot for his ocmmentary, and rightfully so. Well, Renee Young is awful too. Her alignment changes every match and she seldom makes any good points. Most of the time she sounds like she's just trying to find something to blurt out.

Watching that video at the start made me realize that I want nothing more than for Sami Zayn to win the NXT title.

Not gonna lie, I tuned into her and Riley going back and forth and almost turned off the Network.

Carmella could get it. Like, she's trashy but it's a classy kind of trashy if that makes sense. And I know it doesn't.
