Automatic deduction for patrick. Other than that, it was a great show. I’m so pumped McAfee is back.

7. Some parts felt like it dragged. Others did not. I deducted points because of Drake Younger and Velveteen Dream.
The good definitely outweighed the bad though.
The Good:
+ Kushida winning the triple threat + Johnny and the Wheel + Cameron Grimes + Io Shirai's promo + Pat McAfee returning + Oney and Danny getting the tag titles.
The Bad:
- Candice in that segment with Johnny was absolutely uninteresting. She's like the sixth most interesting woman on the roster right now, and that's me being super generous. - Timothy Thatcher's segments do nothing for me.

The 2 shows were different in content, but NXT has found a good flow in terms of segment to segment moving well. They lost that for awhile on USA. Hopfully they have it down now. Like I said in the live thread those first 30 minutes went by fast in the best way possible.

10 OUTTA 10 ON THE IO BEATS CANDICE AT EVERYTHING SCALE...especially battleship.

NXT keeps just straight puttin out absoloutley quality shows that thankfully atleast for now are no longer being used in a reaction manner and has made for much much better paced shows in line with what is expected of them.
They didn't even really use any of their big hitters tonight at all outside if promoting their matches for next week and it still made for a great f***ing show and I love that about NXT they can basically shelve all their top talents for a bit and the depth shows through and tonight was a great example.
And now with UE all tied up in a building faction feud it still leaves the mystery of what they plan to do with the NXT title as a big ole question mark.
NXT is probably right now in its most intriguiging state right now because of all the directions they can take anyone and any of the titles.

I think Kross is walking right back into the title. Dude looks pretty ready on socials, and I don’t think Finn’s close enough yet (though that’s pure speculation on my part)

Thought it was pretty great so I'm giving it another 8. Highlights for me were the 6-man tag, the segment with the Garganos, Drake x Killian, and the finish to the main event. The opening triple threat would've also been one of them if it weren't for Dream, whose presence was the only thing I disliked.

Missed it due to work but MacAfee needlessly being brought back makes me glad I missed.

If the next NXT title feud is Kross Vs Finn....TAKE ALL MY SATANTIC APOCALYPTIC MONEY!
But also because from what I have heard from people close to Kross...he and Finn don't really like one another which stems from Finn being kind of jealous of how big time they were treating Kross immediately when he debuted and how Kross's entrance bore a little similarity to Finns entrance.
So I would be intriguiged to see how that feud plays out with Finns playing with the kayfabe meta and insider terms etc.

8/10.
I liked Kushida and Ciampa kicking Velveteen Creep's ass together early on in the Triple Threat match.
Shirai's promo was short and to the point.
Maverick going crazy with the chair on Ever-Rise and Dain praising him, Grimes being unaware of Lumis staring through the door window during the whole promo, and Gargano being pissed at the wheel for wanting him "dead" were all funny.
The finish with Lorcan and Burch finally winning the NXT Tag titles with McAfee's help shocked me. The metal mask was hilarious.
