 That match did not get out of 1st gear. It seems once Rhea banged her head this match really slowed down and she was visibly pissed at the end |

Yeah, this needed to be said. It was poor.
Don't know if something happened to affect them. Doesn't help its perception though that every other match tonight was incredible

Sad it wasn't as good as we were expecting. Hopefully they're both ok.

Yeah injuries and possibly injuries aside. I just don't think they have chemistry. Nothing wrong with that. Just alittle disappointing.

It sucks that they disappointed again, because I'm such a fan of both. I'm not even joking, the best thing about it was Rhea slapping her on the ass. They just don't have the chemistry, I guess. It's kinda like Charlotte vs. Nattie where on paper it looks good, but never delivers.
Good thing nobody was really hyped for the match since everybody knew who was winning and the rest of the show was so great..

That match never got going idk what their other matches were like but I am sure they had to atleast have been a bit better than that.
But also that match was slooowwwwwww as all hell idk if it was because of anything happening to Rhea or they just do not click but not a good showing at all for either woman.

Rhea and Toni have never had chemistry when facing each other in the ring. So it doesn't shock me that this match wasn't very good. Both of their NXT UK title reigns have been mediocre to underwhelming as well.
The NXT Women's Division is in deep trouble if this is the average quality we can expect from Rhea title defenses going forward. Her house show title defenses have been really bad as well according to various reports.

Rhea has surprisingly good chemistry with Bianca so I think that will be a better showing for her in Portland.

Like it was said, Ripley was probably a bit off because she clanged her head on the ground, and her and Storm have had iffy chemistry anyway. It happens.

It was alright.... Unfortunately, when every other match was good and above it sticks out. Too bad I like both ladies but there wasn't meat to it. I expected one of them to be more aggressive and beat the other around the outside of the ring might have added more to the bout. Instead they just went for a match and it was fine

She had the f***ed up shoulder against KLR, but I'd think she'd be healed by now. Her match with Io on Wednesday was good, but Io is also one of the best wrestlers in the world. Seems like she's been really hit or miss in general lately. Don't know why it was so slow paced. |

Idk, it just seemed like Toni wasn't paying attention and it pissed Rhea off because she started going to the neck and head after Rhea was in pain Rhea slapping her on the ass was the biggest huh moment i've had in a while. |

Rhea kicked her in the ass after the match too.   Most likely just best friends f***ing around, but still funny. |

If you check the last national tour (not this latest one), people commented on how sloppy Rhea looked (she also could barely lift Shayna up beyond her knees as shown in a few clips), and her defense during this tour against Reina was talked about on social media if you look at the #NXTMemphis tag. This division is in trouble either way, because Rhea's reign as NXT UK Women's Champion was pretty underwhelming/average, and people were just as excited for that reign as they were for this reign. And it fell apart quickly. And all the signs are starting to line up for this one as well. |

Rhea kicked her in the ass after the match too. Yea, she did it twice She was pissed. I'm thinking it was a playful kick until she did it again like okay yeah she is mad |
