Pirate girl's entrance garb is certainly terrible, but the highlights of her ringwork looked intriguing enough that I'm hoping this is decent.

Odd to see such a small wrestler employing a hulk-up routine.

That spinning backfist looked brutal.

So kinda the opposite of HHH, Rhonda is a heel in NXT?

That wasn't horrible, but it was the weakest of the night so far. Can't say I liked the ending, and a lot of it is owing to her facial expression right before magically creating a winning pinfall.

That was awesome. Much better than the usual WWE women's match IMHO.

Great show so far. Nothing weak yet, no piss break matches to be found.

HHH rocking the same look as Jeff Bridges in Iron Man is consistently tilting.

Nigel: "The man who came up with NXT". That quote got me thinking if it was really like that and my mind instantly went to lapsed HHH talking to lapsed Vince. "hey Pops...". It was a good convo

Did not realize this show only has 2.5 hours on the WWE Network schedule. Subject to overrun obviously, but if that's the penciled-in timeslot, why start as early as 7?

I'm fairly sure this is the first time it's started at 4. Kinda weird. They used to have preshow at 4.

They usually schedule them from 8-10 ET and then end up running over a half hour.

Ciampa's no-music entrance is so great.

Yeah, I may be remembering it wrong, but I was thinking this used to have a way later start time.

I'd really like to see them destroy the ring during the first match one of these days.
