I kinda wish that Balor vs Crews was longer but it was awesome while it lasted and we're getting Joe vs Balor at Takeover.

Please don't tell me that she won with her "big boot" Had a look at this (gif form since I'm at work)... I'm not normally one to harp on about a bad-looking spot, but holy damn, you could park a bus in that gap. Not to mention she barely got her leg up for it.

So that Eva Marie fan in the audience... Was most likely paid off to pretend that they were a fan. My god, Kris Lewie thinks she sucks.

So an interesting mix on this show. I like Asuka destroying people, but there were clearly moments of wait what's next all through that match. Cameron is still hot though.
All the backstage stuff was good tonight, minus the bad guy apologizing for running into Tom.
Loved the new big match set up with the spotlight. Solid hard hitting match, but lacked bad blood between them. Let's see what feuds set up from here. A Fatal 4 Way?

I want to show my grandmother's nursing home workers how they pronounce Asuka's name. They won't stop saying the damn "U" in my Japanese grandmother's name, despite what we've told them.

That Cameron/Asuka match was pretty kickass for about a minute and some,, that slap/armbar spot was awesome and Cameron sold it perfectly when she shot her that awestruck "I'm trapped in a cage with a lion" look, the rest of it was alright but that was a really great beginning.
So sad how I completely forgot about the Ascension, Gable and Jordan gave me ample time to scratch my head and think of who the best team of NXT was and goddamnit if it isn't the Ascension. Did they plant the seeds for a WGTT reunion? Would they not be perfect for NXT? Or would they just get in Gable & Jordan's way? I like their characters, I like how they're allowed to kind of act like cocky heels and get away with it because they're just young guys being treated like rock stars and riding this wave of overnight success.
That main event was the best I think that Finn's looked in NXT to date. He definitely has a killer instinct to him now that he didn't before, I'm not currently the biggest fan of Apollo for the same reasons I'd beeh sour on Balor for a long time in that Balor was the resident handsome, good at everything, kind of plain guy who had a lot of flash but didn't seem to have much substance to him, and now here comes Apollo Crews who is pushes that "perfect specimen" schtick even further. He's bigger than Finn, can match speed, jump higher, everyone loves him and Finn came off very conscious of that.
I don't know how to feel about Joe's turn at the end, I hope this wasn't some flip out over Joe getting booed against Breeze because that was more about Breeze than it was a rejection of Joe, but the turn was well done anyways and arguably isn't even really a turn yet, as Joe has something of a right to feel like he's been dicked around for not getting a title shot after killing everyone in sight for so long. NXT's main event scene is shaping up pretty well between Corbin, Crews, Finn and Joe. I'm also glad that Corbin seems to fit in that role now because I've always liked him.

Watching Eva Marie wrestle makes me wish food poisoning finished me off a few years back. She's the only thing about NXT that I truly dislike. That and whathisface salivating over her on commentary. This whole thing is smarkbait, isn't it? They are trolling us with this red turd, aren't they? There can't be any other reason for presenting her like female succotash. They really can't be thinking that she is any good.

Did... Izzy try to grab Finn's butt? She looks way too excited for that. She's too young for that, dammit!

Cause god forbid some of these people in the audience actually like this woman. For the love of god, there was Mojo section. These audience has fans that will cheer anything! I only pray that these "Smart" fans come up with some clever Vinny-related chants towards Cameron.

For the love of god, there was Mojo section. Made up of his friends and family, who left the show after the match happened. You never see the Eva fan in that spot before or after Eva's match, either.

I'm not sure, but I think he has his logo embossed on the back of the jacket, which is cool enough for that reaction. Didn't get a clear look but it looked like there was something interesting going on there.

Man, Cameron wasn't too bad against Asuka. Granted, it takes two to tango, but still, I expected worse.
Oh, and Dawson & Wilder are great heels. Old fashioned as hell, I love it.
Oh, and the WGTT name-drop was hilarious, as was "We can't wrestle ourselves!"

I have a feeling that Joe probably feels slighted because he thinks that Finn is ducking him. What with not outright giving him a title match after they won the tournament.

That kind of shit is disgusting to me. If you have a clear favorite wrestler, sure, cheer for them, but don't LEAVE after they wrestle, not only does it show you don't care but it shows you clearly didn't pay to see this show... just all around F***ing toxic.

That has to rank up there with the most shocking of all heel turns. Why Bayley why?
