I do find it surprising that Shirai turned heel before Asuka officially has in WWE. If anything, I thought Candice would end up turning on her. |

I guess I'll take heel Io if he means she's going to start wearing leather all the the time now.

Clearly, she just really misses Kairi. She’s pissed that Kairi barely appears on Smackdown. |

I guess you can say Io Shirai woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

Not sure about those shoulder horns, Ligero... I'm guessing he wants to try and do an Ultimo Dragon kind of look, but it looks incomplete. It's like he's wearing a tiny bra. |

Angel Garza has insane screen presence! I had only seen a little of him in TNA when he was teaming with Laredo Kid, but my goodness. He could be a big star.
He’s got the presence of Del Rio with hopefully none of the extracurricular issues. Between him, Andrade, and Humberto, WWE has some killer Mexican talent right now.
Even just the part of his entrance where he faked out a dude on a high five and then kissed an old lady’s hand... he had the crowd from that point.

Holy f***ing shit the gear on Nykos Rikos. He looks like what a 1970s sci-fi film expected us to look like in the future.

NXT UK
Connors/Andrews. Fun little match with the crowd was into it. Also Connors in long tights is a smart move. Skinny legs, way less generic. and looks a million times better.
Say it everytime. Zack Gibson is sooooo good.
Killer Kelly/Xia Brookside. Too short. More of a story for Xia vs. Jinny &Jazzy. A lik so well Kelly isn't as polished as most in the division, I wish she wasn't such a jobber.
Noam Dar/Ligero. Good match. Like Ligeros addition to his gear. Looks like a WCW Cruiserweight. Dar is a great douche heel.
Walter/Banks. Very nice hard hitting match.
NXT UK continues to really growing into a nice 1hr wrestling show.
NXT
Joaquin Wilde/Angel Garza. Awesome f***ing match. God damn Garza already with that charisma just with his entrance, not to mention video package and the match itself lol. Wilde looked real good too. Nice breath of fresh air in NXT. Great start to the tournament.
Great Kushida Vignette
Street Profits/Forgotten Sons. More of a story setup than a match. Atleast Forgotten Sons didn't win.
Cool Dain Vignette
Lee/Jobber. Awesome squash. Lee pounced that dude to the Moon.
Adam Cole Championship Celebration Tour Part 1 Vignette was fantastic.
Baszler/Shirai. Love Shayna wearing MMA gloves for the cage match. Really good cage match. Which is hard to do nowadays in WWE. Creative finish as well. Also love the heel turn. She lost a bunch of big matches and snapped, plus after the suplex on the chair Io had a sick smile. Which was a great visual.

Turns heel... still loses.  I still have to watch this week's NXT UK. Jobber Kelly turned? A few weeks ago when Jazzy Gabert debuted. Kelly acted like she was going to help Xia fight her and Jinny, then she bailed leaving Xia to be murdered. |

Also Download missed a trick by not having Aiden English perform on-stage somewhere.

-Nykos Rykos' gear wasn't just bad, but LEGENDARILY (or Mythologically, for those so inclined) bad.
-I know it's just one match, but Angel Garza looked like a freaking HUGE star.

Is Roadie contractually obligated to turn people who aren't from America heel or...
