Heritage Cup sucked but the rest of the show was so damn good I'm giving it a 10 anyway. Holy shit both that Melo / Ilja match and the main event, anyone who didn't watch this show go do it.

Screw it.
They earned a 10/10.
Nothing brought the show down and we had two show stealers in the NXT Men's and Women's title matches.

That was 10 dammit
Every match was banger except for the boring heritage cup match
Dragunov/Hayes and Stratton/Lynch we’re MOTY candidates by far

9/10:
The Heritage Cup match was the only meh part.
Everything else delivered, especially the last two matches.
It feels like Tiffany has hit her ceiling in NXT. Maybe time to consider a call up?

9 only for the Heritage Cup match being a slog.
Even with that it was the best top-to-bottom NXT show since before the pandemic.
Two instant classics back to back was nuts

If that's the case about Tiffany. Then it's crazy how fast she is learning and moving up in the system. One of their best prospects ever if she continues to grow at this pace. |

I think it might bare doing a bit of a test drive at how she'd be as a face first, but she definitely should be on the main roster after Mania. |

9/10, would've been 10/10 if not for the Heritage Cup match. Even the Corbin vs. Bron match, which I had negative interest in, ended up being better than expected.
No one has it better than the NXT fam!

IDK what you do with her now that doesn’t feel like a step down? She’s been champ, she feuded with freaking Becky, first women’s PPV ME in years, etc. Mania is still 6 months away, that’s quite a long time to wait? |

Super fun show. I planned on calling it a night early cause of some serious jet lag. But once I turned no mercy on, I couldn't stop watching. Even the N64 intro was fun.

I love NXT Baron Corbin
I felt this was an easy 10, even if the Heritage Cup match wasn’t as good as the others, but the final two more than made up for it

Easy 9. That was an absolute banger of a show.

Loved the intro with the N64 stuff.
I didn't care for the opening match, not a fan of either guy, but it was crazy hearing Corbin get his name cheered.
Did not like Trick winning. I get why from a storyline perspective with what happened later if they choose to go that route, but I think Dragon Lee should have won it first.
Tag Title 4 way, while solid, didn't have me invested in any of the teams. The 4 corner superplex spot was nice though.
I'm in the minority that liked the Heritage Cup match. The first and only time I can say that about this kind of match.
Realizing that Pete Dunne shaves the very front of his hairline was distracting.
NXT Title match was fantastic. Ilja as champ is such a good feeling having been a fan for so long.
NXT Women's title match was very good. I don't rate Tiffany as much as others, but she showed up for this one.
The ref telling her she had the brass knucks on backwards made me laugh out loud.
Not sure where you go with her from here other than to call her up.
Pretty cool video package with Brian Pillman Jr.
Gonna go with 7.
Before you get mad just remember current NXT isn't really my thing, and anything above a 5 is like a 10. So this is like a 12.
I said I'd always give the shows in front of actual crowds that doesn't look like a web game show a chance.
Look forward to Deadline.

Also in the minority that really enjoyed the heritage cup match, but I’ve always enjoyed the round format. Gave the show a 9, definitely think they over delivered but I feel like they tend to when running the same weekend as a hot AEW show.

In a weekend full of great wrestling, my favorite match was Ilja Draunov vs.Carmelo Hayes.
