Very good show. Glad they gave the tag match decent time as it was excellent.

Naka vs Aries should be a great match. I never get tired of hearing his entrance music.

Dominican Funkasaurus is still wack and he smiles too much.

Main event was better than I expected. Alexa looks like she's getting better, Carmella looks about the same and Nia will make a great opponent for Asuka.

I've come to realize I hate Nia Jax' entire presentation. She's supposed to be a monster heel but she comes out to that weak-ass wack-ass song and has the most feminine girly cadence in her voice when she speaks. Completely no-sells her entire intended persona.

I liked the debut of The Mighty Don't Kneel...though there mannerisms and selling could get better. I like their general work but they seem very "hokey" at times.

That main event triple threat was...i'll just say it...surprisingly pretty fukkin awesome considering the parties involved. Carmella was still pretty unproven...she was good with a great ring general like Bayley but she showed that she can carry her own tonight. Nia Jax played her role perfectly and didnt fukk anything up or look soft. Alexa had a breakout match imo. I've been very critical of her in the past but she was great. The psychology made sense and they all executed. I would have actually liked to see Bliss go over if she won on some sneaky shyt...I think it would have done her a world of good. Very good episode of NXT.

It's like you pulled everything out my head. I'll just add that her ring attire is STILL unflattering, and even though she's huge and a leg drop can be bought as a finisher, it's still 2016 and they can't be your finisher. She'd do better using that Samoan Drop or a Torture Rack as her finisher.

The song is the worst part about her. Just give her Kharma's theme.

Nia powerbombs Asuka during a contract signing, maybe she starts using that.

She needs to use the Boss man/Blackhole slam. That is still dope :blessed:
