I appreciate that Spooky Taker is retired and heβs sticking to Bikertaker now. Now, we just got to work on getting Surfer Sting back. Nowadays if he stops dying his hair it would be closer to Surfer Sting colors than Crow Sting...

Here are my NXT Thoughts: I love the kid's sign. If Cody Rhodes follows him on TikTok, his dad will take him to WrestleMania. Yes, I have been waiting for the return of the Dusty Classic & the Men's NXT Breakout Tournament. It is cool that it was Cody Rhodes that made the announcement. And it's great he's the GM for the Night. Good segment with Cody Rhodes, the Birthday Boy Ilja Dragunov & Dominik Mysterio & Rhea Ripley to set-up an NXT Championship Match with LA Knight as Special Guest Referee. Cool, Shotzi on Commentary & she's returning to host Halloween Havoc with Scarlett. Wow. I thought Roxanne Perez VS Asuka would be a longer match, but it was pretty good. Roxanne showed she can go 1-on-1 with Asuka. Asuka remains undefeated in 1-on-1 Matches in NXT. Nice save by Shotzi taking out Kiana James. FACT: It was Asuka's 1st NXT match since she & Kairi Sane defeated Dakota Kai & Tegan Nox on 10/30/19, 1st 1-on-1 on NXT since she defeated Ember Moon at Takeover: Brooklyn on 8/19/17 & 1st 1-on-1 on NXT TV since she defeated Nikki Cross on 6/28/17. Tyler Bate & The Brawling Brutes VS Gallus was a fun Pub Rules Match. FACT: This was the 2nd Pub Rules Match & 1st since Briggs & Jensen VS Gallus on NXT on 9/27/22, making Mark Coffey & Wolfgang the only wrestlers to wrestle in multiple Pub Rules Matches & was Tyler Bates, The Brawling Brutes, & Joe Coffey's 1st Pub Rules Match in their Career. Mark & Wolfgang is now 0-2-0 in Pub Rules Matches. Great video package on Becky Lynch VS Lyra Valkyria Halloween Havoc will be the 1st time ever 2 Irish women will wrestle each other for any Women's Championship Match in WWE History. Good exchange between Lyra & Tegan Nox. Awesome promo by John Cena. Nice exchange with Bron Breakker, as well as Breakker hitting Cena & then Cena hitting the AA. Fun segment with Tony D'Angelo, Channing Lorenzo, & Cody Rhodes. I'm glad that the Battle Royal will be next week so I have time to get my Records organized for it. It should be fun. Solid promo by Baron Corbin. Ilja Dragunov VS Dominik Mysterio was pretty good but the audience was a big distraction that took me away from it, especially the YEAH Chant with LA Knight egging them on & the You F'd Up Chant. All of the interference with Judgment Day was a bit much, but LA Knight took care of them. I like Dijak attacking Dragunov before Baron Corbin could. FACT: This was Ilja Dragunov's 1st NXT Championship Defense, so if he would have lost, he would have been the 1st since Johnny Gargano who lost to Adam Cole at Takeover 25 on 6/1/19 to lose in his 1st Defense. As of NXT, Dragunov's NXT Championship Reign has lasted 10 Days, which is the 2nd Shortest Reign of All-Time ahead of Karrion Kross (8/22/20-8/26/20, 4 Days). If Dominik Mysterio would have won, he would have been the 3rd 1st-time Champion in a row, the 1st Double Champion since Keith Lee in 2020, the 4th to be a NXT North American Champion after Adam Cole, Johnny Gargano, & Carmelo Hayes, & 8th to be a former Smackdown Tag Team Champion after Finn Balor, Big E, Shinsuke Nakamura, Kevin Owens, Robert Roode, Sami Zayn, & Dolph Ziggler. LA Knight will be the 3rd Special Guest Referee for an NXT Championship Match after Shawn Michaels for Drew McIntyre VS Adam Cole on 1/3/18 & Samoa Joe for Johnny Gargano VS Karrion Kross on 7/13/21. Good segment with John Cena, Carmelo Hayes, & Trick Williams. Wow, Paul Heyman is talking to Ava. And now Jade Cargill is with Shawn Michaels. OK segment with Cody Rhodes & Baron Corbin. I like the continuity of their past. So Cody made more matches for next week too, not just tonight. OK segment with Dominik Mysterio & Rhea Ripley & Nathan Frazer setting up his next challenger. Nice cameo by Dante Chen too, along with Axiom, & Briggs, Jensen, & Fallon Henley. Dani Palmer VS Lola Vice wasn't good at all. FACT: It was Dani Palmer's 1st NXT since she lost to Thea Hail on 9/26. It was Lola Vice's 1st 1-on-1 since she lost to Roxanne Perez on 9/19. This is the 2nd 1-on-1 Match between them after Level Up on 1/27/23, which was won by Palmer. This was Vice's 1st 1-on-1 win in her Career. Hilarious segment with Chase U & Andre Chase cursing at the guy looking at his phone. Jacy Jayne was OK. Awesome segment with Paul Heyman & Bron Breakker. Another cool video for Brian Pillman Jr. Now we get to hear from him. And it looks like he's going to be a heel & they explained his new name, Lexis King. I like all of the women introducing themselves to Asuka. I like the matches scheduled for next week. The Battle Royal should be great, as well as the #1 Contender's Triple Threat. I love Tegan Nox returning to NXT to wrestle Lyra Valkyria. Nice intro for Bron Breakker by Paul Heyman. Carmelo Hayes VS Bron Breakker was fun. I love Solo Sikoa & John Cena brawling. FACT: This was the 3rd 1-on-1 Match between them after Stand & Deliver on 4/1/23 & Battleground on 5/28/23, which were both won by Hayes. Unbelievable. Undertaker on NXT as Bron Breakker calling himself the only Bad Ass in WWE. Taker teamed with Rick & Scott Steiner at Survivor Series 1993. I'm cool with Taker laying out Breakker as there's nothing wrong with that. I'm over the crowd already. I love Taker endorsing Carmelo Hayes as NXT went off the air.
Here are my NXT Match Rankings: 1) Carmelo Hayes VS Bron Breakker 2) Tyler Bate & The Brawling Brutes VS Gallus 3) Ilja Dragunov VS Dominik Mysterio 4) Roxanne Perez VS Asuka 5) Dani Palmer VS Lola Vice
What an awesome episode of NXT. I loved all of appearances. The matches were all good except for 1. And I don't care about Ratings & what show is better (For the Record, I will watch Dynamite tomorrow). It is a fun night tobe a wrestling fan.

Iβm going to need my boy HBK to stop fooling around and actually start using Fallon regularly. They're perfect rivals for each other. I want to see Tiffany getting her hands dirty on a farm or working at Fallon's bar.

If you'd told me 4 years ago when NXT and Dynamite started on TV that in 2023 head to head episodes would end with Undertaker and Edge well...I'd probably be like okay that makes sense wrestling is nuts like that.

Trying to decide on a new Jacy avatar from tonight's segment. There's so many options, I don't know which to choose. Kinda like my dating life. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW} It's not.

Came in to say I really like the BPJ promo
They did a really good job of giving him an instant motive and considering he didn't really care for his moms or pops, it makes for an interesting gimmick. First impression is a good one
In regards to the show, I thought it was fine. I feel like everything from the guest appearances was to help the acts in NXT. Roxanne continues to catch fades from Asian women in NXT. Ilja interacting with Cody along with Trick getting involved. Bron and Melo basically being surrounded by wrestling royalty
The show itself has moved forward beyond just the appearances which is all you can ask for

I dunno, the WWE Variety Hour didn't really do it for me.
Well I was hype for Asuka vs. Roxanne (and was honestly the only reason I wanted to watch) but it was okay-ish, with Shotzi and commentary being a distraction for a lot of it.
and the (former) Brian Pillman Jr video package was so damn good. Already looks like a much bigger deal than he ever has.
And that's all I'll say because I don't want to shit all over everyone's enjoyment, I'm glad so many people liked it, and the most important thing is that it was a great night to be a wrestling fan overall no matter what.
