-LOL at Eva's botched kickout being an angle now. The rib of her getting the foot on the ropes but the camera missing it was genius! Expected this to be a big thing about a crooked referee - thankfully it wasn't.
But, I've gotta give the devil her due... no, not that one, Carmella seems to be going to the early days of NXT school of "Stop trying to do signature spots and just brawl around and you'll come off a lot better". It worked for Camacho and Jinder Mahal and made them come across as decent workers and it's doing the same for Carmella, who's adding more of the Enzo character in the ring and...
-Speaking of working wonders for a guy.. Maybe Bull Dempsey can try the same thing? How do you have a shitty match with Prince Effing Pretty, geez.
NXT's in a weird spot. There's a lot of little angles I really like, like the frustrated/bored Tyler Breeze arguing with Regal and wanting a shot and not caring about silly matches with scrubs like Dempsey, and now getting shoved down the card against Crews after looking past Liger... As the one NXT guy who's the "glass ceiling" victim that we see on Raw, it's actually part of his character. I love that! Problem is, it's a lot of little story quirks like that that's making the show enjoyable but no real sizzle right now.
Yeah Prince that's what I thought to. Just wanted to hear "ba-da-da-da trouble trouble trouble trouble trouble trouble trouble... TROUBLE!!!" from the eerie voice in the darkness... I already reviewed Asuka's debut, but when walking down the ring I couldn't help but remember the Kharma viginettes with the sick laughter behind the torn-up doll. Can't wait for Nia Jax to show up!
Please show some of these damn tourney matches! I love the freshness of seeing them try new things, and this "cutaway to the broadcast booth" seems like a winner. Please bring Kyle Edwards to Raw!
Two Dudes' rematch against the Vaudeheroes was a pretty good match, I guess
