He was a hilarious jobber heel, but he sucks ass as a face.

Kind of weird people are criticizing Roode for that, he's doing classic heel stuff.

I don't see Tye Dillinger getting anywhere on the main roster but Mojo Rawley is in the Royal Rumble so wtf do I know.

Sanity seems straight out of TNA, Eric Young can be good but this does nothing for me.

I also stole your tweet.

I watched the whole thing, really enjoyed the main event but nothing else was that great, it definitely didn't leave me wanted to watch more NXT. No Joe or Revival is going to hurt them. If Hero, Strong and Cien are the only other contenders for the title then there's a problem.

And of course, lol James Storm.

Not been watching NXT lately but still enjoyed this ppv

My fav match was the tag team, feel like both of these teams will do well on the main roster. Last time i watched was when the AoP made their debut and just looked like they were only there for da look but they have improved a bunch since then.

Massive dudes + foreign + Paul Ellering should = elite heel tag team if they can keep on booking them strong

I don't watch NXT weekly, I watched the week before to be prepped because I attended this live. Fun show live, really enjoyed it. Thought the tag match and main event were excellent.

Fandango's GOAT moment was in the Raw after WM 4 years ago when Jericho lays him out but he grabs the mic to correct the ring announcer on the pronunciation of his name. "IT'S FAN-DAHN-GO"

I was disappointed by the main event honestly. It wasn't actively bad, but the beginning was dull, the middle to end was quite entertaining, but the ending was lame.

I hate the doctors coming out to "check on" Nakamura (or anytime that happens). The whole premise of the sport is to injure your opponent, why would you stop the match for that?

If you want to set up that ending with the knee injury, have Roode actually injure it in some way (throw Nakamura into a railing, into the stairs, with a chair, somehing) rather than just have it be a fluke.

Thought the first two matches were meh, the tag match was pretty solid, AoP were much better than I thought they would be, and the woman's match was ok.

Watched the three title matches. They were all good. I wouldn't call any of them "great".

Those "ten" chants are almost at "What?"-level on the annoyance factor. I'll begrudgingly accept it when it's a Dillinger match, but saying "ten" constantly during count-outs for every other match is really getting on my nerves.

Totally agree with your sentiment though I the "what" chant.

There was a point in the match where Asuka had just kicked out of what I presume is their double team finisher and then they have a talk mid-ring with Asuka laying there. I assumed that Peyton was telling Billie to laydown when Billie started to go down but it was only to one knee........and then I presumed they couldn't do that. That's a huge missed opportunity.

All of this especially since they did this not too many TakeOvers ago with Steen/Zayn having a main event injury angle albeit different circumstances. I really enjoyed the tag match though.

Also, someone kicked out of a finisher in every single match. I don't recall that ever happening before.

This is exactly how I feel about the women's division after Asuka too. Except maybe the Peyton Royce part. I don't even know which one is which nor do I really care to at this point.

Nikki Cross is my new favorite thing at NXT.

Yeah I was there and it was GOAT live wrestling experience. People were singing the Fandango theme in the parking garage. Just a crazy, joyful experience.

Just watched the card back

Can never take that sort of women's title match seriously if one of the two teaming people doesn't immediately pin the other given the slightest chance
