Tonight on NXT...
*TAG TEAM TURMOIL FOR #1 CONTENDERSHIP FOR THE NXT TAG TEAM TITLES: Hudson River Crossing vs. The Legionnaires vs. CJ Parker & Tyler Breeze vs. The Ascension *Bayley vs. Sasha Banks *Aiden English vs. Bull Dempsey *Sami Zayn vs. El Local
Yup, Zayn takes on a masked wrestler whose name begins with "El" this week. Olé~!
In addition to all those matches, WWE COO Triple H will be in attendance to make a major announcement concerning NXT's future. Bearing in mind that NXT's commissioner just so happens to be Dusty Rhodes, one has a feeling this announcement may not be good news for the American Dream.
There's another announcement on this show, as NXT Champion Bo Dallas will reveal how his next challenger will be determined. What system does the Leader of the Bo-lievers have in place? And is there any room for Sami Zayn in this system?
If you're wondering why CJ Parker and Tyler Breeze are suddenly teaming, well, just watch for goodness sake. And as for Bayley vs. Sasha Banks, their match was described as the best Divas match in years by none other than The Undertaker who was in attendance. Make sure you tune in to see how the newly deranged Banks and the dinosaur/pogo stick/hug loving Bayley impressed the Dead Man.

Not even NXT is safe from the Best for Business Era.

Watching right now.
Renee Young may be the best female to ever be on commentary.

Tyler Breeze is just magnificent, the perfect amount of obnoxiousness; I haven't enjoyed a character/gimmick this much in awhile!

I said it last week... Aiden English is going to be in that same "heel that gets mega face pops" area that Tyler Breeze seems to be in right now before long.
On the other hand, CJ Parker seems to be slowly heading into Bo Dallas territory, which is a bit of a shame because I like the gimmick.

I got a kick out of Aiden English saying "TAKE A BOW!" when he hit his finisher.

This episode was a lot better than last weeks, Great seeing El Local and Aiden continues to work his gimmick right. I'm hopeful that Breeze will be able to hold those megapops during longer matches. Hate for him to suffer the Goldberg effect where he's only good for short quick matches.
Really enjoyed the divas match, and especially Sami Zayn

- I loved the interaction between Breeze & Maddox, I want something to come out from it like a handsome men team maybe On the other hand CJ Parker is becoming the next Bo Dallas - Amore & Cassidy got robbed, turmoil matches are just not fair - Shasha won a good divas match, I think they made Summer Rae her manger after seeing her bad acting - The fans are appreciating Aiden English singing more as they should - They didn't give Sami enough time time to steal the show this week - Ohno is back next week - I'm really happy to see JBL become the NXT general manger, because Dusty wasn't doing anything special in that role Can someone explain to me why Kassius Ohno need to work on his physique & Ricardo/El Local doesn't

Can someone explain to why Kassius Ohno need to work on his physique & Ricardo/El Local doesn't One is meant to be a jobber and one is trying to be a legit person to be pushed towards becoming a champion or main roster superstar?

Aiden English is too close to damien sandow. He should sound more like thurston howell or stewie than some regular dude. The whole entrance and finisher work for me though
Ricardo just needs to be el local in wwe. And zayniacs. Bo-lievers.
This is so great.
Jbl being a gm?
Good wrestling from everybody? Cool.
Still not sold on cj parker

*I liked the backstage segment with Brad Maddox, Tyler Breeze and CJ Parker... well, in spite of CJ Parker. Maddox and Breeze can be greatness together in segments.
*Guaranteed death whenever Enzo Amore ends up in the ring with a monster. Though that means the pop will be huge if he ever beats one... or manages to hit a move on one.
*Though Sasha Banks isn't a good actor, which is why they've put Summer Rae with her, her overhand chops RULE. Bayley's great too, and I love the HUGPLEX~!. Glad Taker liked it, but I've seen many better women's matches this year, quite a few of them on NXT in fact.
*Renee Young's pretty good on commentary, but I'd like to hear her be the lead announcer for some matches to see if she can do that. Imagine her doing SmackDown instead of Cole.
*English continues to impress. I like that his songs change every time so we aren't hearing him sing the same one.
*As I mentioned, Sami Zayn against a masked luchador with "El" in his name is a glorious rib. Good match too, and a nice segment with Bo Dallas (booooooo) afterwards.
*"We know how much you like wrestling, so we kept you off TV to mess with you" is a heck of a BS weaksauce excuse for Kassius Ohno's absence. Technically he could get compensation for that. Nice to see him back, though, and his body's looking better.
*Trips no-selling the fans wanting him to mention Tyler Breeze and Paige... him mentioning Corey Graves is very much part of his douchebag chills. JBL will do well if he gets those fans at Full Sail to hate him, given they pop for nearly everyone off TV.

Guys, I can't Bo-lieve nobody is mentioning the huge storyline arc reveal HHH made during his NXT address. He said that he's super glad that the NXT Superstars and Divas are a blessing because with them he can always just fire every last person on the main roster like he did Cody Rhodes and replace them with NXT rookies as needed.
Considering the Wyatts, Fandango, and The Shield are all thriving in the 2nd Facgime Era (and they all came from NXT) I don't really think it's a bluff. This is destiny. /ADR

Great to see Kassius back. It's cool that they have synergy between WWE programming and NXT with the way they had Triple H allude to the Rhodes family storyline in his announcement of JBL as the new GM of NXT. I didn't take it this way, but I suppose you could see Triple H's comment about being able to replace the current WWE superstars with the stars of NXT as a threat to the 11 superstars who are rebelling against Triple H and Stephanie. I strongly doubt this will actually happen, but maybe it was meant as a veiled threat.

One is meant to be a jobber and one is trying to be a legit person to be pushed towards becoming a champion or main roster superstar? good point, but being a jobber doesn't mean that WWE should let RR let himself go, i mean things could change Considering it looks like they're just going to make him go from announcing RVD to announcing Rey if reports out there are true, I doubt they have any plans of him wrestling full time, unfortunately, so they probably just don't care. He can still go either way, so eh.

Ohno isn't doing himself any favors with those outfits. Skinny arms and a gut under the baggy shirt. I thought it was some old out of shape wrestler when first they showed him (couldn't see his face) while Brad was talking on the phone. And it's not like he's killing it with his promos, every single sounds so bland and boring.
Enzo & Big Cass got robbed. Can't believe that anyone sees anything in those two fake Undertaker guys. The bigger one sucks and had a constant NXT/FCW push for like 3 years now. He's the definition of sawft.
I like Tyler Breeze, but his partner The Moonchild... I'm not a fan, and he's using Pam Andersons name. What's he trying to be Dude Love? Is he even a face or heel?
Commentary trio with Regal, Random guy & Renee was awesome.
Girls match was good as well. I thought for a second that Summer was gonna say that her & Sasha will have a threesome live sex celebration next week with Fandango.
Surprised that Triple H managed to cut a promo that lasted under the usual 15 minutes. He's improving well on NXT.
Never stop Bolieving!
