Dream/Black was such an old school NXT feeling for me. Two jarring gimmicks actually creating a great moment.

I still don't like the character, but I have to support Patrick Clark. I also knew they would shoehorn another suit appearance out of Aleister Black :russ:

Definitely think the women's division will be stacked. Really need women's tag belts...eventually doing the same when these ladies eventually hit the main roster.

They have got to stop putting Aleister Black in that suit.

Edited to Add: OK. Finished the episode. I feel like NXT is courting the fangirl dollar.

Between Aleister Black in the suit, ~whatever Patrick Clark was doing, Tyler 'thick thighs save lives' Bates, Adam Cole's sweet little cheeks in those tight jeans and a man bun and a smirk, and Drew McIntyre looking like a Calvin Klein ad. . .I'm about three seconds away from saying something weird and R=Gish.

I think Lars Sullivan is legit.:smugfavre: I'm gonna be early to his bandwagon.

Bianca Belair looked great again I hope she become NXT women's champion:blessed:

Tag Team match was good. I started watching a Progress show and Mustache Mountains on it gonna be interesting to see the difference and what they're like there in contrast to NXT.

Alister sounded like I figured he would:francis: but it was a good segment regardless. I'm happy for Patrick Clark he did a good job winning over the crowd that just wanted to see him eat a kick. I think he can get over BIG in this feud. :ehh:

Feels like NXT is finding its stride again.

Hopefully we can get back to the glory days of Zayn/Neville/Kidd/Tyler

Black should be in the title picture instead of Cole. Cole is wack to me :manny:

VD has potential. Should be an interesting feud

Aleister Black vs Velveteen Dream was a perfect segment. It really shone a light on how important it is to have actual characters. Seems like Patrick is finding a balance too with playing into the homosexual innuendo but not going there fully.

Bianca Belair got next. Full package wrestler. And Lars Sullivan is the next Braun Strowman. He needs to be in the NXT title picture instead of all those generic indie darlings. I can't believe they're still trying to make Roderick Strong happen. Unless you are one of the absolute best in the ring you just can't get away being that bland a personality.

Glad I wasn't the only one who laughed at Drew McIntire coming out like he was just doing a magazine shoot backstage. I'm not too high on his in-ring ability but at least dude looks like a legit champ.

Side-note, Tyler Bate is a goddamn monster for his size and age. They need to cut the bullshyt and turn him and Pete Dunne into a Owens/Zayn fight-on-sight rivalry.
