Another week, another episode of NXT. Here are my quick thoughts on this week's episode:
- The Vaudevillians have such a great entrance
- The Hype Bros are basically my nightmare tag team. Average wrestlers with annoying characters
- Specifically Mojo Rawley. His character is "yell, jump, and run"
- Corey Graves throwing shade at Johnny Manziel is an early highlight of this episode
- Glad the Vaudevillians are actually playing up to the "villains" in their name again
- I know he's saying "Woo" but it sounds like Rawley was trying to get the crowd to chant "Moo"
- Zack Ryder should not be able to beat up two people. Or one.
- It never ceases to amaze me how over Ryder still is.
- I just realized Aiden English is the closest thing we have to a Guerrero in WWE
- I'm a big fan of Dash & Dawson's old school gimmick
- However, their name is really awkward. It's a first name and last name. "Dash (Wilder) & (Scott) Dawson"
- Carmella still comes off like a heel in her opening promo to me
- Emma has the best entrance theme in the NXT Women's Division
- I'm so glad Emma has come back from her run on the main roster and is back to being amazing, maybe even better
- Dana Brooke is hilarious at ringside
- Tom Phillips: "You're my friend". Corey Graves: "...Whatever you've got to tell yourself"
- Carmella is fine in the ring, but she definitely needs improvement still
- NXT has some weird obsession with the "more than one person won the #1 contenders match" ending. Last week wasn't the first time they've done it. It's not a bad finish, but they can't over use it.
- Samoa Joe looks younger now than he did in his last few years in TNA
- American Alpha should be on the main roster already
- Enzo and Cass should have won the Tag Team Championships in London
- Corey Graves' commentary is on fire tonight. Just straight fire.
- Enzo Amore could rival Paul Heyman as the best promo in WWE today.
- Big Cass: "I'm gonna spell it out for ya" (gives up at "S")
- Apollo Crews has one of those voices that doesn't match his body
- Just remember the guy who sings the WrestleMania 32 theme lost a rap battle to WWE's biggest geek last week
- Baron Corbin seems angry. Hopefully there aren't any indy stars showing up on (just throwing a random date out there) March 2nd or so.
- SANTANA GARRETT!
- Santana Garrett vs Asuka would be an absolute banger if she was actually on the roster.
- Asuka's jumping armbar is such an incredible move
- I still miss Devin Taylor.
- Finn Balor has the best entrance in not just NXT, but WWE all together right now.
- Balor's leather jacket look looks pretty heelish
- It's hard to describe Balor-Crews as anything but "amazing"
- The Coup de Grace to the back of the head would have been a great finish
- Bloody Sunday is a great name for a finisher.
And that's about it.
