Hella good match from Dijak and Lee before being interrupted by Roddy and now it’s a triple threat match next week for Roddy.

Roddy vs Dijak vs Lee

Matt Riddle and Bronson Reed was a fun match even if it was short

Pete Dunne and Damien Priest with a really good main event match, probably Priest’s best match in nXt so far imo.

This was a super good show.

NXT hitting the mark hard this Week on USA Network that's for sure, but I'm left with plenty of questions. It's good to see Ciampa back and doing his thing and he had a good Match I feel with Angel Garza. I liked how during the Match it was all Angel showing the Ring rust the clearly has, but just the Champion he has he was able to overcome it and get the win. Imperium might be in top 3 favorite Tag Teams in the WWE right now they have all the tools to be the best in the World and they proved it against Burch and Lorcan. Lorcan and Burch are tough as Nails Wrestlers, and they got outsmarted by Imperium showing that you might feel confident thinking you're in control, but if you make a mistake they'll make you pay and Imperium gets a great win over a respected Tag Team.

I wonder right now what WWE has in store with alot of these ladies in the NXT Women's Division. Rhea Ripley for sure has been a spark of energy into the Division, but do I want to see her beating down and taking wins over a lady like Io? Nope. I do see Rhea beating down Bianca shutting her up finally. She's had plenty of shots and opportunities and clearly doesn't want to admit her failings. She still thinks of herself as the best and I honestly don't think she at that level right now. I speak about that and then later you see Shayna stopping the Return Party with Nox and Kai. Listen it's a blessing those two ladies have been able to come back from major injuries and continue their dreams, but neither should be able Title Shots right now. If anything Candice is above them and she was no where to be found. Shayna is right and I can't wait to see her lose the NXT Women's Title, that they both need to do something more than what they have so far to catch Shayna's eyes. I would also like to put that Conti outshine Nox during her Match and it's good sign for her that she might be moving up in the World.

Riddle had a good bout with Reed this Week as well. Riddle keeps showing no matter the size and skill of his opponent, he's going to break you down like a Calculator and find the Formula to get the win. Dain gets a win over Boa who showed alot of intensity in his own Match and it seems we might get a Dunne vs Dain bout down the road yes please.

The Fourth Battle with Keith Lee and Dominik Dijakovic was another entertaining Match. I say bravo to the guys in this Match giving us something new to this Match vs the previous encounters. No shock to see the finish, and it made me more hype to see how Strong will be able to handle these two next Week. He's going to need alot of help!

Dunne vs Priest was a heck of a Main Event. I've gone the record not feeling Boricua Superstar Priest, but this Match turned the corner with me a little bit. He's showed plenty of skills throughout vs Dunne and he shows what he could be for NXT going forward. I didn't like the finish at all, you say you're somebody, and WWE clearly is saying it as well, but you need a kick to the nuts to beat Dunne not really smart to do with the Character he is to be honest.

Pretty solid show all around, but that main event was bonkers.

The close of the show was great too.

I refuse to believe Rhea Ripley is a woman.

That is all.

Okay just finished AEW Dynamite and NXT this Week and damn I'm wiped out hard right now. NXT had one of the best Shows for them this Year setting up so much great shit going forward which is another Takeover in November I imagine right? Man is the Women's Division in NXT really heating up these days as Belair vs Ripley had a heck of a Match with each other. Neither lady dominated for too long, but Rhea gets the win and bumps over Bianca as a lady who could be next in line to face Shayna for the NXT Women's Title. I don't get Candice LaRae getting involved in Io's business with Rhea though. She beat you clean girl...he if anything you want the Heel to start up the feud again and honestly it felt weird seeing that, considering they have done nothing towards each other to further the feud since the Takeover Classic they had with each other.

Riddle vs Grimes had my emotions up and down like a Roller Coaster. I was like hell yes this Match fucking rules between the two checking the boxes of the needs I love to see in Wrestling, but on the other hand I was like what is Grimes getting this right now? He's had maybe 10 Matches total if you count the Breakout Tourney, and his Matches on NXT were snoozefests, yet you give him this with Riddle and he's kicking out of Riddle stuff as if he's someone with a shit ton of momentum. He has no Character, a lack of Charisma at times which is why I felt in Impact he was hard to watch at times even with those skills in the Ring. I feel he needs to change himself up, or this might be the only highlight he ever has with Riddle. I do like Bate getting involved too, more of the Big Strong Boi on NXT yes please!

Isaiah Scott and Breezango vs. The Forgotten Sons. Even though I'm not a fan of The Forgotten Sons, they worked really well with Breezango and Scott in this one. Scott picks up the good win for the team, giving us that hell of a Dive off of Ryker just amazing. Garza vs Gallagher man I need some of that Matchup in my Veins I dug it hard. High Flyer vs Technical Bruiser messed well together and Garza got a good win lining himself to face Lio for the NXT CW Title down the line as well. You feel for Gallagher though he's been a staple for the Division, and Angel was getting all the love in this one poor guy.

Team Kick vs Shayna's Goons. Quick and to the point with this one. I remember Nox and Kai wanting to face Kairi and Io for the Tag Titles when they announced to have them now we sorta have our wish. I can't wait to see Kairi and Asuka return and how the NXT Crowd handles them because they love Nox and Kai, and I'm hoping next week we see a new Kairi and Asuka with new gear and a new look.

Strong vs. Keith Lee vs. Dominik Dijakovic. I don't know if words can describe how great this Main Event was for NXT. The way it was mapped out was so perfectly done as Strong early on was picking his spots and letting Lee and Dijakovic beat each other up. Later once Lee and Dijakovic were right for the picking, Strong would get in more of his Offense, while also taking his own licks during the Match. Lee and Dijakovic man those two together are magical and it was no shock to see Strong come and get a victory like he got it, he made sense from the get go bravo fellas.

Now to Balor turning Heel this Week. Man it was great I honestly thought were could of seen Balor in Wargames, but damn we got a Heel turn at the right moment this Week. For sure you wanted to build on that Turn, but they have plenty of time to build up two of the most beloved NXT Wrestlers against each other. Balor I'm really looking forward to what he says because I have a feeling it will be about how the fans forgot about him quickly and moved on to other people etc. Still Wargames with Lee and Dijakovic together, with Dream I imagine to go with Ciampa is going to be insane vs Undisputed Era!

I just watched the episode from last week and damn NXT is easily the best thing going in WWE today. Every match was amazing and the wrestlers are actually over with the crowd. Can't wait to watch the latest episode.
