Preview for tonight's show:

The start of this women's tag match might be the sloppiest start to an opening match in NXT in recent years.

Not sure if its just a bad case of the nerves or Ember & Shotzi don't mesh well with Raquel to start off a match.

Women's tag match was mostly decent despite it being sloppy at times. One of the weaker openers in terms of quality since NXT moved to USA Network.

Yikes at Pete Dunne's neck.

Fish T-Bone suplexed him right onto the ropes and Dunne bounced right off of it and landed rough on his head and neck.

Bobby Fish vs. Pete Dunne was pretty good and would have been a way better opening for tonight's show instead of the Women's tag match.

2 beatdowns after matches

Going to laugh if they actually write out Fish despite him only recently returning from his injury.

Maybe I'm just not getting hooked into the group soo far or something about Hit Row has been really off.

Right now they come off as a watered down version of The Acclaimed, mainly Max Caster, as a rap/hip hop based group. They have all the pieces to be a really cool group but are missing that one key piece or person to actually be great.

is there another ripoff rosemary

More like a Su Yung ripoff.

Whatever happened to Xia Li? She was great. Jacked, and had great looking offense.

:lol: at Grimes

Poor Grimes, wanted to be just like his idol The Million Dollar Man and instead just keeps getting mocked by him.

:| at LA Knight calling the crowd incels.


No clue.

Supposedly Triple H, HBK, and other NXT officials have been very high on her new gimmick but have a really odd way of showing it in recent times.

That Million Dollar Faceoff segment was way less comedic than I had expected.

LA Knight vs. Cameron Grimes feud might be good but not really that interested for it.

Never realized until just now that Indi Hartwell's voice sounds very similar to Peyton Royce.

:n: at Franky not bringing along her cute adorable dog for her debut match.

Guess her dog was among those who got their pink slips recently from WWE.

Is WWE the only company that regularly has the habit of champ loses belt and then immediately jumps into a title feud for a belt that is one step higher or lower than what they had just held?

NXT just did that with Santos Escobar where he recently lost his Cruiser title and now is starting a feud with Bronson Reed for the NA belt. No climbing the ladder or anything to get that feud.

Edit: Holy shit, they sort of just did it again with Johnny Gargano getting put into a #1 contender's match for the NXT title just a week after he lost the NA title.

I'll take that over endless rematches for the title, thank you very much.

NXT title match was pretty good overall but could have been several minutes shorter. Took way too long for it to hit that next gear and felt like almost every Kross match in NXT so far in terms of pacing and flow.

This week's show was all right overall although last week's show was a lot more entertaining for comparisons.

I find Karrion Kross to be very underwhelming outside of his entrance. Like, when he fought Balor and just started forearming him for the end of the match?


Anti-climactic as fuck.

Watching NXT now. Gargano / KOR / Doon match v good, terrible ending. Why even have this match if you can't have a decisive ending?

Don't really care about LA Knight or Jake Atlas, but what's the point of all these interference/dq/clusterfuck match endings?

Scarlett is literally the only good thing about Kross, and she just stands there while he cuts a generic angry promo.

This NXT is probably gonna outdraw Dynamite by 250,000 viewers :rofl:

I haven’t really been following NXT much at all. I think Kross is going to lose the NXT Title so he can go up to Raw though. He and Scarlett seem like an act Vince would love. Unless he decides Kross has no charisma and he can’t understand why Scarlett would fuck him. Honestly, I do get Sable/Mero vibes from them.

If I HAD to subtly suggest to the WWE ways to improve NXT and the main roster within their own universe, I would float the idea of having Bray Wyatt return to NXT. He’s a “name,” which helps NXT. He’d also get more autonomy over the direction of his gimmick and make it more “earthy.” Plus he’s no longer clogging up the WWE main roster.

He could have a fine feud with Finn Balor or something. You could even build to The Fiend vs. The Demon, without supernatural stuff, and have something give there. And I don’t have to watch it.

And yes, it probably will do better than AEW.

anyone going to watch this tonight to see if joe shows up.

Hell Yes!

joes going to kill you

DAMNIT Joe is awesome already killing people lol

Joe fucking rules.

Great show. I loved everything. I just hate the name LA Knight. Lose the LA and just call him Knight.

Is it possible they're setting up a Dibiase JR return? Or is he high on coke somewhere?

Pretty sure he's got a successful career outside of wrestling.

You are thinking of the wrong Dibiase, that was Brett.

la knight has the best promos

I’m hoping with the teasing of a Dunne and Joe feud that they don’t go that road. Would rather see Dunne become Joe’s boy to wrestle in matches for him and do his dirty work as he hasn’t been cleared to wrestle.
Just keep teasing it for a while and have Regal and Joe in the ring. Regal could be thanking Joe for helping to sort out NXT and then Dunne runs down , talks some shit to Regal in his brummie accent and then starts attacking Regal. Then Joe plays like he is about to take out Dunne and instead just smiles and shakes his hand.

Toni Storm has come out as bisexual

Another win for Juice Robinson

Watching Great American Bash.

Really would like to see Ciampa / Thatcher vs. Riddle / Orton.

Seems weird to have Bud Light Seltzer as a sponsor.

Cameron Grimes face turn has probably been my favorite thing on the show recently.

I'm glad this rapper gimmick is getting Swerve his well deserved push, but the rap promos aren't my thing I guess.

Surprised they haven’t just thrown caution to the wind and done Raw vs. NXT in a battle between the USA properties yet. Ricochet vs. Kushida for the CW Title, Orton/Riddle vs. Ciampa/Thatcher, Kross vs. McIntyre. There’s plenty of stuff you can do to make both shows slightly more interesting.
