1 and that's only because Io won. Easily the worst NXT since moving to USA by far and really shows just how far the quality has slumped lately.

I already know who voted that 1 lmao
I'll give it a rare 10 on a fun factor. It was stupid in the best possible way but while embracing the crazy they also advanced storylines for after this
Go out your way to watch it. Nothing groundbreaking or something you going to watch again and again but it should be seen once

As much as I've loved NXT since the move to USA, I think this is the first time I'm giving it a 9.
-Shotzi was completely in her element as the host. I understand she's not everyone's cup of tea, but I think she's such a delight. You can tell she was having fun out there.
-Gargano vs. Priest was a lot of fun, even though Johnny Failure winning was not how I wanted it to go. Hopefully this means bigger and better things for Priest, who needs to be in the NXT Title picture.
-Saw Dunne betraying O'Reilly coming from a mile away, but was happy to see him back. I'm really digging McAfee's new stable and looking forward to seeing them vs. UE in War Games.
-Escobar vs. Atlas was thankfully kept short. Escobar's a cool dude but his matches are just missing a certain something for me and I have absolutely no interest in Atlas.
-I wanted Lumis vs. Grimes to take place entirely at the house, but it was still a lot of fun. Grimes just gets it when it comes to being a heel.
-I knew Rhea vs. Raquel would be good, but I didn't expect it to be that good. I actually want this feud to continue because they work really well together and Raquel just keeps getting better.
-Drake and Killian were entertaining as usual.
-Ciampa's promo was really good until he started talking about Patrick. What the f*** is it with them and this creep, and why is Ciampa being wasted on him?
-I like Beth as a commentator, Ember Poon is an all time classic mistake.
-Io vs. Candice was unsurprisingly pretty good and Io retaining was obviously the correct decision. Since Shotzi's going to need someone to help her against Candice and Indi, I hope they make Toni her partner for a few weeks!

That was an easy ten.
Everything was great. They even had little clips promoting other feuds that weren’t in tonight. Just great tv. It’s what wrestling is meant to be.

I don’t feel perfect shows exist.
But that’s as close as you can get to it.
NXT is probably one of my least favorite wrestling shows to be honest and this show really won me over.

Okay, now have watched both shows.
I enjoyed it, especially since I'm rather fond of Shotzi. Thinking an 8.

This is a really weird hill you've chosen to die on tonight. It wasn’t even like it was a polarizing show. It was pretty much universally loved around here! “I hated it” is fine, opinions for everyone, but that’s very different than the what’s in his quote. Lol

Lol Honestly I did get a kick out of just how overwhelmingly negative they were. Like they made something like 20 more posts, all negative, after they said they were going to stop watching. You have to respect the hustle of hating that hard.

Look, if he didn’t like a show and he has his reasons for it that aren’t straight out trolling, let him be free to express that without being mocked for it. I know it’s weird to say “Let the dude be negative about WWE”, given that’s like 90% of the subforum most days for a multitude of reasons, but it’s true. We all should be able to say what we feel about a show within reason without being piled on for it.

First time I've watched NXT in a while, it was great, just the right amount of silliness, nothing insulting and pretty much everything could be explained in the 'real world' (yes, even the zombies)
