Strong episode without going overboard with the invasion angle.
There's no united front in NXT, so that's interesting going forward.

NXT should go over at Survivor Series. Maybe not the tag team match and that should go to the Raiders, but definitely Bazler and if there's a traditional elimination match

It's such a luxury to have a guy who is incapable of having a bad match flying under the radar every week. Talking about Pete Dunne of course.

Haven't watched the second hour of NXT yet. The Kai-Baszler match was very good though. I'm not sure Kai has put it all together yet in terms of personality/character but her wrestling ability is already there. Baszler is another NXT wrestler who seems incapable of having a bad match. Her presence also adds a lot of gravity to a match.

Next to Ripley Bazler might be my favorite female performer in WWE. Still weighing how much of my bias weighs into that Ripley opinion.

Same. Those two women are too bad ass. Legit looking, backed up by skills.

Rhea's oozing with charisma and sex appeal as well.

Kinda figured that rivalry would turn into a Cesaro Sheamus kind of deal.

Mauro's off apparently tomorrow as well, i hope he gets better but honestly, for his sanity maybe he should leave the wwe entirely i think (not the best workplace culture it must be said).

Instead, Graves should be fired. What is the upside of an announcer getting heat at the expense of another announcer? No one is buying the WWE network or watching WWETV to see Corey Graves get what's coming to him. He's not a wrestler. He's just working the marks for the sake of it.

Agree about dumping Graves. I've never looked at him the same again after all the stories about him cheating on his pregnant wife (multiple times) or when he started a bar fight in Mexico but ran out the door and let his brother get beat down. The guy is a giant tool.

Hey everyone, go watch that Balor v Lee v Ciampa on tonight's NXT. It was fantastic.

I think they are close, but I'm sure we cna all agree both are far better than Raw or Smackdown

I read that the opening match was fire too.

I'm not liking the short term storytelling recently, it seems they've gone away from the longer term storytelling from last year to a more short term payoff (then again i'm a sucker for long term, consistent storytelling, hence i loved NXT and how different it was from the main roster that way).

Also, i think they should have capitalised on Lee and had him win the title. Also isn't Cole vs Balor basically heel vs heel, i'd love to see how HHH books that (should be fun, heel vs heel matches are always good).

What I called a while ago is starting to come to reality: that once NXT became mainstream, it would lose the "less is more" power. Not having to feature everybody every week kept things fresher for longer

A tweet he sent out to Kenta,

Kenta said who are you and fans started trolling, so he snapped back at them.
