Sorry this is a little late! Please rate NXT and let us know what you thought of the show by commenting!

First Round Match in the Dusty Rhodes Classic: Sanity vs Riddick Moss and Tino Sabbatelli

Sanity won by pin fall and advanced to the second round of the tournament.

Tommasso Ciampa

Ciampa came to the ring but never said anything while the crowd chanted for Johnny Gargano

Lacey Evans vs Dakota Kai

Dakota Kai won by pin fall

Shayna Baszler and Ember Moon

The two were in the ring and Ember Moon got angry and attacked Baszler. They brawled and Shayna got a good punch in on Ember. Ember, however, nearly knocked Baszler out with a kick. Moon got to the top rope and Baszler recovered with a kick to Moonn's head. However, when Shayna was setting Moon up, Dakota Kai came and knocked her down with a kick to the head. This gave Ember Moon the time to deliver a takedown from the top rope and she stood over a fallen Baszler.

First Round Match in the Dusty Rhodes Classic: Street Profits vs Heavy Machinery

The Street Profits won by pin fall to advance to the second round.


WWE United Kingdom Championship: Champion Pete Dunne vs Adam Cole


Dunne retained his title via disqualification when the Undisputed Era interfered. Roderick Strong interfered but was beat down until Dunne recovered and cleared the ring.


NXT Championship Contract Signing


Aleister Black came to the ring but Andrade Almas did not. Zelina Vega came to the ring and tried to insult Black, but he really ignored her and insulted her height. She slapped him and he signed the contract and was about to leave. While Zelina continued to insult Black, he stopped and informed her that although Zelina came out alone, he did not. Candice LeRae came out and began beating the crap out of Vega until she was left laying in the ring.

10/10. This is what a non PPV hour of wrestling should be like. The tag team matches were short, but fun. Both were enjoyable to watch. Ciampa's segment was classic. He has accrued so much hatred by saying NOTHING. The animosity he built in the crowd is phenomenal.

The highlight of the show was the **** match by Adam Cole and Pete Dunne. Cole sold Dunne's offense really well and Dunne came across as he always does, a young and brutal William Regal. But he also sold a lot of Cole's move. To get a match like this on a weekly show is wonderful.

I've never been a big Aleister Black guy but I loved his poise in this segment. And since I don't like Almas, I am looking forward to the match. Watching Candice LeRae beat the shit out of Zelina is ALWAYS fun. Great show

Okay...so I managed to avoid spoilers for the most part...so lets
have a look at the best weekly wrestling show in the world!

~ And we open with my crew SAni†Y...so already this show
is better than RAW & SmackDown combined.
+ So we have Young & Wolfe vs. Moss & Sabbatelli...
& SAni†Y win of course...& Nikki Cross is just Adorable.

She just gave the ref a hug?! Give me a "Crazy" hug Nikki!

Forget Bayley...I want a hug from Nikki Cross...

~ Next up we get another visit from "Dead Eyes" Ciampa...
& if Vince watched this segment he'd think Ciampa was the
top face in NXT.

~ And Oh look...its Lacey Evans & I really like her look. Hey
Main roster creative...I think I found someone who could play
that "Diva" role on the main roster & actually make it work.
+ So we have Lacey Evans vs. Dakota Kai...and wait...Dakota
is from New Zealand? I did not know that. She is awesome!
~ And Holy roll up Batman! Dakota Kai scored the win.
~ And play time is over because here comes Shayna Baszler...
who as we know is not to be fucked with.
~ And here comes Ember Moon! Man I'm loving this episode
of NXT...the women are out in force!
~ And now Ember & Shayna are just fighting...I mean this isn't
a match...but I don't care...
~ And Dakota Kai comes from out of nowhere...& Ember Moon
gets one up on Shayna...but she couldn't do it alone.
~ Ember just isn't working for me as the Women's Champion...
& I think all comes back to the fact she could not defeat Asuka
for the title.

+ And now we have the Street Profits vs. Heavy Machinery...
~ And the Street Profits get the win in a highly entertaining match...
and I'd call that it an upset.

~ Stop dancing Nigel...

+ And now Pete Dunne vs. Adam Cole for the U.K title...and its time
for Cole to finally impress me...
~ I love how Pete Dunne carries the U.K title with his teeth...
~ Okay...so I'm just going to say it...Pete Dunne may just be
my favorite worker at this point in time.
~ I wish Fish & O'Reilly weren't out here at ringside...
~ Does Adam Cole remind anyone else of Shawn Michaels?
~ And the match ends in a no contest...0 Stars!
~ It is always good to see Roderick Strong...but for me the end of
this match was pretty ordinary.

And I'm still not sold on Adam Cole...maybe its just the catchphrase?

+ And now a contract signing...& I'm not really a big fan of these...
~ Aleister Black may have the best theme music right now...such a
great tune that fits his character so well.
~ Seeing Black in a suit is still kind of weird to me...
~ Okay...I just going to say it...Zelina Vega is a stunningly beautiful
woman...she's like a Latin Alexa Bliss that I can actually stand to
listen to.
~ Okay...Black moving the table to sit down was great...I laughed
out loud.
~ And Candice LeRae shows up? Okay...I guess that kind of made
sense. Shame the WWE released Sage Beckett because I would
rather have seen her playing this part.

All in All another great episode of NXT with plenty of great action
& plenty of my favorite performers on display.

8 out of 10...
