I'm guessing they'll have Finn Balor win the NXT Title in Japan, then Hideo Itami comes out to congratulate him, setting up a future match between the two. Everything wraps up in a nice little package for them.

I really liked the Tyler Breeze/Adam Rose match. Breeze is one of the most entertaining workers they have, in my opinion. Rose had his game-face on, and the dude really did a good job here. His persona needs to evolve to allow him to bust this stuff out and really become three-dimensional.

Kinda worried about the women's division with the inclusion of legendary performer Eva Marie.

Yeah, they need to show clips of her training with Brian Kendrick. But I feel they might do that after she surprises some people and shuts up the "You can't wrestle" chants.

Jason Jordan has got the look and probably has the fundamentals down, but he's missing something. Maybe he just needs to dip his toes into the water a bit more. The hinted Chad Gable pairing might bring it out of him. Apparently Gable is pretty good. Bring back The World's Greatest Tag Team in a veteran role to feud with them after they are done with The Vaudevillains. The Enzo/Cass vs. Blake/Murphy feud could have legs based on their personal issues, and you can always call down The Lucha Dragons to put over Blake & Murphy in the interim.
Rhyno's apparent nastiness is interesting. He was pretty fine in his "I'm an established guy that you like but can also work the de facto heel spots and no one is bothered." I wonder where they are going with this? Maybe a feud with someone who calls Rhyno on his shit, like Solomon Crowe or a face Tyler Breeze? Or maybe he's going to be Balor's first challenger once he wins the title in Japan? Rhyno vs. Joe? Maybe he's Uhaa's first target? Maybe he and Corbin become "The Unstoppable Forces" and add some heavies to the tag scene? |

Kendrick should appear in Eva Marie's corner. Give her a feel good story. I know they advertise her as having a boyfriend, but let some romantic tension develop between the two. Get people into both characters.

Tyler Breeze is the smartest man in wrestling.
Fat man? Make him run until he can't stand up. |

So Bull Dempsey's new gimmick is just him being a fat guy?
How is that any different than before when he was the "last of a dying breed" aka fat guy wrestler. |

Because now he eats doritos and has a chocolate bar hidden in his tights.
Very different. Character development. |

If Dempsey manages to win a match with a chocolate bar as a hidden weapon, I'd be extremly impressed.

Kevin Owens showed up and proved Bull wasn't really the last of a dying breed he was just somebody who could do Bam Bam Bigelows's headbutt.

Apparently the main event at the Pittsburgh show was a four-way match between Kevin Owens, Samoa Joe, Finn Balor, and Tyler Breeze.
I am desperately hoping for fan cam footage to show up somewhere. |

I knew they'd be fucking. Those young, attractive people are always at it. This show needed more Alexa.

Nope. I've discussed my absolute hatred for the fact that she looks like she should be in the music video for "Vogue" most of the time when she's doing her overly elaborate, awkward posing over and over and over and over.

Had a good time tonight at the show in Cleveland. Sat next to Dana Brooke's aunt and uncle and it was funny that they were getting mad at her being booed.
LOVED the main event 4 way. Hell of a match from all competitors. Here are the results: NXT Results from the Agora: Enzo and Big Cass defeated the Vaudevillians Bull Dempsey defeated Jason Jordan Baron Corbin defeated Rhyno with the "end of days" Bailey and Carmella defeated Emma and Dana Brooke when Emma tapped out to Carmella. NXT Tag Title match: Blake and Murphy defeated Zack Ryder and Mojo Rawley Womens Title: Sasha Banks defeated Charlotte in a fantastic match with her Bank Statement submission. Fatal 4 Way for NXT Title: Kevin Owens retained in what would be a classic ppv match over Samoa Joe, Finn Balor and Tyler Breeze when he hit the pop up powerbomb on Breeze for the win. |

Finn Balor hype video was insanely good. They showed all kinds of photos and videos from all of his indies. Becky Lynch bits were really great too.
I can't think of another package I've seen that they've done like this before short of a full DVD. I can't wait for part 2 next week, which feels like a ridiculous thing to say about a video package. |

I wonder if these video packages are from Full Sail or the WWE video team itself. They need to make sure that the production values of their videos dontdon't lower as well.

Probably just NXT guys with the WWE doing whatever finishing touches are needed.
Think most if not all of NXT's production is done by Full Sail students and interns. |

That Finn Balor package was a thing of beauty. I'm absolutely convinced he is winning the NXT Title now. Well, like 90% sure. The stuff with Becky Lynch also helped show off more of her personality too. Great stuff.
Alexa is hot as hell, and The BAM Factor's feud with Enzo, Cass & Carmella gets points for effort. It's been a simple progression and I'm looking forward to Enzo & Cass' big moment. I'd be happy for these two teams to feud for a while. It doesn't feel "main event" like the other title programs do, but give things time. They've got plenty of stories left to tell. KC Cassidy was a girl I wanted the WWE to sign for ages, just based on her look alone. I liked the story she told with Charlotte. The Queen was pissed off that she got beaten down, and actually played something of a de facto heel against the cutesie from Australia. KC looked good, showed pluck, and lost honorably. I'm looking forward to her next appearance. I think she may have found a gimmick with the plucky girl with something to prove. She could easily fill the hole left by Bayley when she leaves for the main roster in six months to a year. I'm looking forward to the next Charlotte vs. KC match. Let them tell a "next time I'll get you" story. Sort of like Zayn & Cesaro. |

According to the ongoing batch of NXT tapings, Sami Zayn confirmed he's out till 2016 because of the shoulder injury and rehab.
