Here are my NXT Thoughts:
Wow. Shawn Michaels stripped Solo Sikoa of the NXT North American Title. I wanted him to defend the title on Smackdown. But, if he wasn't a sanctioned opponent, why would Michaels allow the match to take place in the first place & then sanction Sikoa's Title Defense on Smackdown against Madcap Moss. But I like the idea of Carmelo Hayes & 4 others in a Ladder Match at Halloween Havoc. This wasn't part of the spoilers. Interesting. And for the record, this ended Sikoa's North American Title Reign at 7 Days with 1 Defense, giving him the Shortest Reign of All-Time ahead of Johnny Gargano's 14 Day Reign (10/28/20-11/11/20) & is the 1st time that the North American Title has been vacated since Keith Lee gave it up when he won the NXT Title in 2020. Oh and to the people that want to see change to NXT. The next 2 weeks are taped. They're not going to change anything until October 4 when they go live again. Axiom VS Nathan Frazer was an incredible match. I can't wait for their 3rd & final match. That should also be a Qualifying Match for the North American Title Ladder Match. And this isn't a spoiler since they didn't tape a 3rd match yet. Solid promo by Alba Fyre & response by Mandy Rose. Nice. I like them going back and explaining everything that happened to The Diamond Mine was all Damon Kemp's plan. NXT acting like the old WWE, with wrestlers coming to the ring and then doing all of these other promos & segments, while people are waiting for in the ring for their match. Ivy Nile & Tatum Paxley VS Toxic Attaction was not good at all. And speaking of not good, here comes Joe Gacy & The Dyad. The only good thing about that segment with Joe Gacy & The Dyad was that hooded person that has been around a few weeks in the background on top of the crowd. Good attack by Malik Blade & Edris Enofe to set-up their match. Even though I don't like their gimmick, The Dyad are still great wrestlers so their match with The was a great match. I just wished that they went back to being Grizzled Young Veterans. A stupid recap of Quincy Elliott & this is followed by Wendy Choo coming to the ring, as NXT gets stupid, forcing my brother to change the channel, since he doesn't want to watch crap like that. Good recap on Meiko Satomura & Roxanne Perez & Cora Jade. I'm still shocked when I see that Satomura wrestled on Monday Nitro. Wendy Choo VS Cora Jade was a pretty decent match. And now Lash Legend is going to feud with Choo. Please God help me. She couldn't even to do a kick right. Good promo by Bron Breakker. Wait a minute. They can't air the next segment. I read the spoilers, Carmelo Hayes & Trick Williams talk about how they got screwed out of the North American Title by Solo Sikoa. That won't make a bit of sense after what we saw at the top of the show. It's good to see Kelly Kinkaid on NXT interviewing Oro Mensah. I like that they explained why his name changed from Oliver Carter, but it's still stupid. That promo by Carmelo Hayes didn't make sense. We saw that he's happy that Shawn Michaels stripped Solo Sikoa of the North American Title, so why does he want everyone fired? He's going to get a shot. I like Chase University coming out to set-up the next match. Even after reading the spoilers, I was not expecting Chase University to defeated Carmelo Hayes & Trick Williams. It was a pretty good match. I guess that would qualify Chase for the Ladder Match without having him win a Qualifying Match. Uh Oh. Sanga VS Von Wagner is next. Chaotic segment with Briggs & Jensen & Gallus. but between Briggs & Jensen's Southern accents & Gallus' British accents, I have no idea what they said to each other. Every time he wrestles, I get more & more impressed by Von Wagner. That Olympic Slam style move was great especially on someone as big as Sanga. How come he improved but others cannot? Good promo by Wes Lee So, his match with Tony D'Angelo and now Oro Mensah VS Grayson Waller are Qualifying Matches, but they weren't when NXT was taped last week. Nice post-production editing magic by WWE. Nice intense promo by Cameron Grimes. Oro Mensah VS Grayson Waller was an awesome match, but I hate that they are treating Mensah like this is the first time we are seeing him. He's a former NXT UK Tag Team Champion & one of the best wrestlers on the roster. He's not making his TV Debut. He's been part of WWE for 3 years. Him beating Waller should not be considered an upset. Apollo Crews & his stupid bloody eye appearing was stupid. Another cool moment with Bron Breakker Thriver (I love that they call them Thrivers) Landon The Conqueror Chase. Good luck to him & all of the other kids that are sick. Good segment with The Creed Brothers. I like them arguing about who's going to face Damon Kemp first. Either way, it's going to be a good match. Another Sol Ruca promo. I'm looking forward to seeing her make her NXT TV debut next week, though I have liked her on Level Up. The spoilers for next week's NXT ounds good. The Pub Rules match sounded like fun as it's a No DQ Match. NXT has to stop doing the overrun and have the show end at 10, not 10:04. New Amsterdam returns tonight, so now I'm going to miss the opening of the show. Tyler Bate VS JD McDonagh was a tremendous match. They have had great matches in the past in NXT UK. It didn't matter who won to me. I want to see both of them against Bron Breakker but the addition of Ilja Dragunov is amazing. I hated the camera spinning when Bate was doing the Airplane Spin. I almost threw up. Ends a great NXT. The matches were all great except for the Women's Tag Team Match. My favorite matches featured all NXT UK Imports: Axiom VS Frazer & Bate VS McDonagh, which showed how awesome NXT UK was & and how much it will be missed.

Is it just me, or does Bron not look much bigger than JD and Ilja I was surprised by that too. Looked like he only had about an inch on both of them. Bron's a shoot 6'0" as that's what his NFL profile has him at. So I guess the other two are both 5'11" apiece which is still taller then I thought both are.

Dragunov submitting WALTER and then posing with his foot on his chest was one of the coolest conquering babyface moments in a long time.

I always picture JD as a giant headed little twerp and he was nose-to-nose with Breaker who has size.

Is it just me, or does Bron not look much bigger than JD and Ilja He's definitely much heavier and bulkier than they are. But yeah, Bron was never a tall guy. I think he's the same or slightly shorter than Ciampa. He's going to look pretty small on the main roster but I think he'll still be very successful.

Missed the final 10 minutes of the show.
I was busy punching a bag and ranting about Damon Kemp.

Erase Bron from that entire thing and I'm sold. Please get the NXT title off of him. I would LOVE if HHH/Shawn gave it to Dragunov and let him be a badass workrate cannibal babyface champion. I would absolutely watch again.
