(Found out this week that we have to move house in a month, so I don't know how many more of these I'll be able to do for a while)

8 out of 10 for me personally. Best parts being Damian Priest, Shotzi Blackheart, UE and Toni Storm. No real negatives but 8 feels like the right score to give this episode of NXT.

Very very solid no-nonsense show. Enjoyed the whole way through.

0 OUTTA 10! but I aint mad mah girl is in her healing chamber

This was a straight up fun episode and really did well in hyping up Halloween Havoc and they ended on a cool cliffhanger both in story and artistically which they don't really do a whole lot of and something I wish they would do more of instead of just the tropey Mr Regal has announcement ones they more often than not go to.

It really feels like this will be the Garganos swan song like they are making one last deal with the devil because of how desperate they are.

Priest has the rocket absoloutley strapped to him and I aint mad at him at all dude has completely come together as a huge star...I fully expect him once he does drop the NA title he is going straight for the NXT title.

Giving this show an 8, mostly because I really do not like the Gargano Power Couple stuff. It's cringeworthy and not entertaining in the slightest right now. I really hope they do not win the titles.

8. Loved that show.

Great match between Burch & Lorcan and UE as expected. I think UE will take the titles back next week and eventually lose them to Dain and Maverick.

Didn't really have an opinion on the TAFKA Tehuti Miles vs. Jake Atlas match, but I f***ing loved Escobar's green jacket.

Theory vs. Gargano was pretty good, even though I wasn't looking forward to it.

Shotzi vs. Candice was fantastic and I didn't even have a problem with the ending since I saw it coming. Shotzi showed once again that she can hang with the best of the women's division. There's no doubt she'll be champion one day, even if I think she might be better as a chaser.

TONI TIME! It was a short match so I won't get too carried away, but I thought they did a great job hyping Toni's return and making her feel like a big deal. She just has SO much star presence and will do great things if she gets the in ring part back down. NXT's women's division is so much more interesting than Raw and SD's, it's almost embarrassing.

I love the Maverick and Dain tag team.

Priest vs. Lumis was excellent, with both guys showing that they belong in the main event. I did laugh at Gargano attacking Priest with the chair after the match. Shotzi's promo announcing THE WHEEL for Halloween Havoc was pretty crappy, but I don't even care because she rules.

8! So much better than last week. Maybe they had to fine a groove going back to live TV?

Anyway I wrote my thoughts down a little different today.

UE vs. 1&2:
- Good promo by Kyle
- Good match. Glad to see NXT have a good back and forth tag matche.

Balor Update:
- Glad they're going to see how his recovery is going. It's a smart way to go about it for real and storyline purposes.

Moon Sitdown Interview:
-  Much better than her live promo.
- Her putting over the division was great.

Adonis vs. Atlas:
-More of a segment to set up Legado Del Fantasma vs. Swerve and friends.  I'll take it. More Santos more money!

Power Couple Interview:
- Johnny and Candice are fantastic as these delusional dbag heels.

Theory vs. Gargano:
- I love Johnny trash talk early in the match.
- love Wade talking about losing to bigger stars is better than beating no names.
- Theory continues to look like a really good prospect imo
- Love Theory trash talking
- Really good match!

RHEA VS. RAQUEL at Halloween Havoc! LET'S GO!

Ciampa Hype Video:
- lmao He's dead! Short and sweet!

Shotzi vs. Candice:
- Shotzi just rules!
- Great back and forth start
- Slowed down alittle, but really picked up again
- Awesome match with a good storyline finish.   Not mad at all.

Drake & Dain Segment:
- These 2 are gold together!

Toni vs. Ayliah:
- RS promo fantastic.
- Toni getting that star entrance!
- Toni is a star, still need to she her in a longer match, but good restart.

Imperium vs. Drake & Dain:
- Imperiums' entrance looks great on the new set.
- Dain and Drake are so good together
- That was a fun match ! When Drake and Dain win it'll be awesome!

NA Title Match:
- Both these guys rule!
- That match was pretty close if not Takeover worthy.

SPIN THE WHEEL! YES HALLOWEEN HAVOC IS GOING TO RULE!
