Leo Kruger's vignette was really well done. Kruger is good at being creepy. He was good in his patriotic male model thing at the start, too.

Michael McGillicutty showed personality! For a dude that has probably always known he was going to be a professional wrestler, he started pretty late -- only debuting in 2007 when he was in his late twenties. He's coming along really nicely. I still think that an R-Truth & Kofi Kingston vs. Johnny Curtis & Michael McGillicutty feud would make sense, given that Truth & Kofi were Pros to Curtis & McG on NXT.

I've got be honest -- The Ascension's act is wearing thin on me. Like, they are still awesome, and I know that -- but I just don't care beyond initial impressions. Structurally, the feud between them and The Usos is great; but it's just lacking that care factor for me.

I want to care about Kassius Ohno, and he is such a heel, but there's something...off about his act. I don't know what it is. Like The Ascension, I know he's great, but I don't know. I think maybe he's missing backstory -- an explanation as to why he likes hurting people. Something like that could go a long way to building Ohno.

Paige is amazing.

Rick Victor impressed the fuck out of me. The dude was so good in there, and made Rollins look great, too. He's the first guy to take the Blackout and make me believe it as a finisher. The wrist-biting was weird. At first I thought he was doing it to get his tape off and to use it to heelishly choke out Rollins -- but it was just a thing he was doing to get noticed, or something, I guess. If they're going to go forward with him being "weird," maybe putting him a team with Johnny Curtis wouldn't be a bad move? Michael McGillicutty could still be in the picture. Maybe they could do a weird Freebirds sort of thing?

But yeah, as far as ring work goes, Rick Victor impressed me about as well as anyone in NXT so far. He, Paige and Rollins are the acts that I feel are the strongest down there, at present.

Good for Oliver Grey.

Vic Raptor would be an awesome name for Rick Victor. It's just a shame that Tyler Reks is now gone.

Kassius Ohno should actually be doing a homeless gimmick. That would be pretty fun. They should show him as a street bum brought in by William Regal and groomed into someone ready to be a champion.

It's sad that his best moment in NXT so far has been his backstage confrontation with Ricky Steamboat, though. "What are you going to do? Arm drag me?"

Vader must've fucked one hot lady to produce Jake Carter

That's what I always think when I see Jake Carter. I think that could be turned into some sort of tagline for the dude. "The offspring of a monster and a model." I actually really like "Your Girlfriend's Favorite" as a nickname for him, too. I wish they were still doing that tag team with Corey Graves, because I liked them as a sort of "Ladykillers" tag team. Give them a re-modelled Shaul Guerrero as a valet and I think they would get over pretty quickly.

Mr. Nerfect

09-30-2012, 07:43 PM

Michael McGillicutty is really fucking great. I love the "Shah!" chants for him. I did fall asleep during his match with Bo Dallas, though. Literally. I did go back and watch it after I woke up, and it wasn't bad. There just wasn't much good about it, either. Dallas needs more work. He's so young, but there's just nothing organic about the guy's performances yet. Stick him with Derrick Bateman as "The USA Guys" and let Bateman lend the dude some personality.

I look forward to Michael McGillicutty vs. Seth Rollins. That will rock.

Leo Kruger continues to be pretty good. Good on him. Ryback still doesn't thrill me, though. I don't know what it is. Feed him three, or something.

Kassius Ohno and Richie Steamboat had a great little match. I hate Steamboat's finisher, though.

Newest episode of NXT, for anyone with Hulu Plus:

http://www.hulu.com/watch/408763

Mr. Nerfect

10-04-2012, 10:52 AM

The longer this feud between Steamboat and Ohno goes, the more I am into it. It's got a real old-school feel to it. Steamboat has proven time and time again that he might just be the better wrestler, but there is enough doubt for drama, and Ohno is showing himself to be dangerous and vindictive.

NXT, in general, has a real old-school feel to it. Having JR and Regal on commentary; Dusty being called "Commissioner" all of a sudden; tournaments to decide champions; The Fink doing special ring introductions for the NXT Title match; the way a lot of the feuds are turning out.

I really wish that they had allowed NXT to open up with a Seth Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose feud, though. I really think they could have set the tone for NXT quite strong early on, with Ambrose moving on to the main roster quicker, given that he has got the mic skills for a main roster spot, whereas Rollins could use that more steady approach.

Kassius Ohno is growing on me as the weeks go by. The booking is putting Ohno's "I'm a bad guy because...well, I'm just a bad guy" persona into context, and it's telling a story.

10-13-2012, 03:56 PM

Every time Kruger matches start, I want him to leap out of the corner and "pounce" on his opponent like an animal and starting "ripping into" his face (not literally).

Guy has too much of a Kraven the Hunter/Crazy African Safari guy look about him. He should have more animalistic traits to his character.

Mr. Nerfect

10-13-2012, 06:46 PM

* I really like Johnny Curtis, but the dude has like nothing to do. I liked him in his tag team with Michael McGillicutty, but they don't really seem to have that "theme" a team often needs. How about pairing him with Jake Carter as "The JC Connection" and have them play suave and charming, but dark personalities? A sadistic male model type thing?

* Bo Dallas will one day be good, but right now he is just boring. Very boring. Stick him with Derrick Bateman as "The USA Guys." Bateman's got personality for two, so maybe he can help Bo out in that department.

* Hey, there's your next NXT tag feud! Throw in The Ascension, Mike Dalton & Jason Jordan (The Thrillseekers?), Hunico y Camacho, Tyson Kidd & Justin Gabriel (Air Force), The Usos and Corey Graves and a tag team partner he chooses out of revenge for being dumped by Carter (maybe Luke Harper -- the ring name for Brodie Lee), and you could have yourselves a nice little tournament for a set of NXT Tag Team Titles. No rush to bring in belts, though, I guess.

* Paige is more over than Bo Dallas.

* Audrey Marie actually looks like she can work a decent match herself. Give her some more time down there with Sara Del Ray, and she'll only get a lot better.

* Recently I've been interested in the state of women's wrestling. I'd like to see someone given the task to officially try and make it something profitable for the WWE. I honestly think that the females could have their own writers and be an independent attraction to the male portions of the show. Almost like what the cruiserweights were in WCW. A lot of the girls still need more polish, but with Sara Del Ray, Natalya, Paige and AJ Lee under contract, you have some girls that are over and can work. It's a shame that they've let Kharma go, and that Beth Phoenix seems next.

* Sign Saraya Knight and two joshi (Japanese female wrestlers). Saraya plays the heel against her daughter to help get her over; the joshi fight each other for a main roster contract on RAW, with the babyface one winning and the heel heading down to NXT to help Sara Del Ray and Saraya help polish off the younger girls, before making it back to the main roster to feud with her joshi rival.

Mr. Nerfect

10-13-2012, 07:29 PM

* Jake Carter and Trent Baretta's backstage segment seemed weird to me. I'm looking forward to their match, though. "Where's Trent?!"

* Leo Kruger is really good at playing his current character. He or Kassius Ohno seem like logical choices for your next NXT Champion, or next real feud for Seth Rollins, anyway.

* Michael McGillicutty's interview with Briley Pierce was not bad. I kind of wish Mike McG would become a "Heyman Guy" and change his surname to "Hennig" after a pep-talk from Heyman about his lineage and what he should be fighting for. Maybe leave that until after WrestleMania next year, though. Keep him doing awesome work on NXT for the moment, specifically working on his promo skills and just getting that little bit more crisp as far as an in-ring personality goes.

* I like the idea of NXT having visiting Superstars every now and then. Cody Rhodes makes sense given his connection with Dusty Rhodes. That sort of thing could help get the show and a lot of the talent involved over.

* I absolutely love the commentary on NXT. Michael Cole gets a bad rap, and I think he deserves more credit, but I wish they would dial back his role on WWE TV. Accepting that he is now "The Voice of WWE," I wish they would permanently change the RAW commentary team to include Jim Ross and JBL. When Jerry Lawler is ready to return, have him play the role of "RAW Active Social Media Ambassador." So he basically shows up and talks about what people voted for and all that. He can also do the commentary for WWE Main Event with Jim Ross, or something -- it could lend that show a "special" feel.

* I like Rollins using the Shiranui to finish his opponents. I also like the way as McGillicutty was setting up a potential Perfect Plex, JR talked about "the perfect way to finish."

Decent episode

Carter vs Baretta was solid

Good to see Riley back. Surprised he beat Mahal

Nice 6 man tag to close the show, although Steamboat and Ohno both are terrible.

Mr. Nerfect

10-21-2012, 10:20 PM

Riley is still really good. He still needs some polish, but he's got that "star" quality you can't teach. Jinder Mahal seems to get better all the time, and he's still so young. It was good to see Riley pick up a win -- people need a reason to care about him every now and then.

Carter vs. Barreta really impressed me. I wish Carter would get more time to establish a character, because he seems to have a lot of charisma. He really impressed me here. Trent Barreta is someone that I hope gets to stick his head in somewhere on the main shows. I think he could have a 1-2-3 Kid like charm and usefulness.

Paige, Paige, Paige, PAIGE, Paige, PAIGE, fucking PAIGE!

Damien Sandow is fucking amazing. I'm so glad he's managed to go past being an amazing character to being an all-round amazing performer with an amazing character. Depriving people of the cartwheel was fucking great. Heel 101. That dude that Sandow faced impressed me, too. The finish was never in doubt, but the Harley Race-trained dude showed some good stuff that makes me want to see him again as a no-nonsense babyface.

Ohno grows on me and grows on me. It used to bug me that his "thing" was so simple ("I hurt people!") but now I like it. He's starting to embed himself in NXT as this dude you want to see get his ass kicked, but you have to admit is really talented and quite dangerous. He's doing a good job of being the heel on NXT. Conor O'Brian impressed me, and he seems to be getting better and better at being a bruiser.

Richie Steamboat's hot tag was a bit weak, though. I think he should have gone straight for Ohno, instead of just standing there being angry like a goof. He's got a lot of potential, and he's great in the ring as a worker -- but he's just missing something. It's that thing that Kofi Kingston channels into sometimes that allows you to take him seriously when sometimes in the mid-card you don't. Steamboat really needs to find that, so that his anger gets people right behind him, and not just cheering him because he's the "good guy."

Brodus Clay vs. Camacho was good old fun. Camacho looked good, and then looked stupid getting distracted, but he's a heel. The right man went over.

Kassius Ohno is great, and I love Trent Barreta. The ending with the towel was quite creative, and it protected Ohno, built his feud with Steamboat and kept Trent's winning streak going. Now there's some good booking.

PAIGE! God, she is amazing. I'm a fan of Audrey Marie, too.

Bronson instantly has me intrigued. He just has that appropriate tough dude vibe. Lincoln Broderick looked like a beast, though! I'm interested to see more from both of these men.

Mr. Nerfect

10-26-2012, 11:14 PM

The arrogant foreigner thing is a pretty tried and tested way to get heat, but it does seem cheap and it's not really working for Cesaro, although I did enjoy him getting everyone to stand for the Swiss anthem. Cesaro's promo was not riveting, although he is a confident speaker. It made me want to see him do an angle where he gets Americans to do things to embarrass themselves, because he is their champion. When they initially refuse, he waves money in their face and then talks about how they have no pride.

Vickie Guerrero should officially become the "band manager" for 3MB. She and Heath were great together. The match between Slater and Rollins was pretty good, too. I like Rollins using the Shiranui in his matches. I don't know what was wrong with Avada Kedavra, though.

So if this was taped weeks ago, shouldn't members of Vickie's stable start to show up with her on Raw now (ex. Slater and his band).

Holy shit, Big.E.Langston needs to be kept as far away from the mic as possible!

Romain Reigns was pretty meh.

Usos have been entertaining.

Amazing Main Event, even though the end result wasn't in doubt.

Yeah the main event was terrific definetly a candidate for WWE MOTW.

Mr. Nerfect

11-03-2012, 09:40 PM

I'm trying to think of what sort of blow-off The Usos and The Ascension could have. I'd like to see them try all sorts of different tag team match styles.

Xavier Woods is charismatic, but acts like a bit of a git. Leo Kruger's entrance is amazing. He's pretty roster ready, I think. He seems like the best choice to go against Seth Rollins next.

Mr. Nerfect

11-03-2012, 09:54 PM

Big E. Langston's promo was unintentionally hilarious. Seeing him an Byron Saxton together made me think that he could come in as Langston's spokesperson. William Regal or Paul Heyman would also do.

Justin Gabriel is showing some personality. Nice. Drew McIntyre is actually not that bad on the mic. Kind of excited to see that Fatal 4-Way. Out of the potential matches, Rollins vs. McIntyre would have me the most interested.

Mr. Nerfect

11-03-2012, 10:16 PM

Roman Reigns was acting too dark, in my opinion. Just let the guy be himself. There's definitely something in the air about him. I think he might need some time to work on his craft a bit, but that's what NXT's for right? I liked his finisher and the constant arm work.

Tyson Kidd is fantastic. It is a shame that he's a bit awkward on the mic, but I hope that like Dolph Ziggler, he can learn. Would love to see Tyson Kidd vs. Chris Jericho is Jericho ever comes back. Cesaro is also amazing, but his character just needs that tiny little bit of tweaking. I actually wonder if Cesaro would benefit from comedy elements being introduced into his character. As long as they keep him serious and dominating in the ring.

Antonio Cesaro & Kassius Ohno vs. Tyson Kidd & Richie Steamboat would be a fantastic tag team match.

This. The dude needs quite a bit of work. He's clearly someone they want to push, but they should just cool their jets with him until he can put two and two together in the ring. I actually fell asleep during one of his matches once, because it was just so...formulaic.

His budding friendship with Derrick Bateman could be turned into a full-time tag team alliance, I think. Call them "The USA Guys" and have Bateman lend his personality to Dallas. As I've said before, this team would make great foils for The Prime Time Players.

Tom Guycott

11-09-2012, 03:43 AM

Two questions:

Is NXT it's own universe (no pun intended)? I mean, I get the "tapings happened already" thing, but it seems kinda weird to have Vickie stir shit up with Cena/AJ over fraternizing, then turn around and try to recruit Big E Langston because she's "a cougar looking for men for [her] stable." Also, 2/3rds of what is now 3MB are in drastically different roles- Even when Jinder was flying solo (well, milling around) and got steamrolled by Ryback, he has consistantly been like THE biggest threat to Seth's championship. Drew Mac is a very over tweener in spite of being a clearly established heel who just doesn't get much TV time outside of NXT- but while IN NXT, he doesn't exactly downplay or redirect his positive reactions by turning on the crowd. Is this going to keep happening here?

Is it a requirement for hobo beards to appear on the show?

Tom Guycott

Nah, Cottonwood chose to leave the WWE a few months back, I think. Since that I've been saying that Luke Harper should be associated with Bray Wyatt, so I kind of marked when Harper came out. I have to admit that I was not too impressed with his showing here. He didn't suck, and I hope I will grow to like Harper, but I was far more entertained by Wyatt's mic work than Harper's ring work.

I've also never been a big fan of the Boss Man Slam as a finisher.

Mr. Nerfect

11-09-2012, 11:44 AM

Ohno vs. Barreta was amazing, and I really want to see a rubber match between the two. Ohno's actually feuding with two people at the moment, and that's pretty cool with me.

Big E. Langston is so much more interesting to me than Ryback. I think it's because he doesn't do the exact same thing every week. We didn't really get to see much out of Alberto Del Rio's little brother -- who reminds me of a cross between Del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez -- which is kind of creepy.

I liked the Fatal 4 Way being elimination rules, but I don't really agree with the booking of it. I get that they want Bo Dallas to get over, but he's not, and it comes off as really awkward. The dude should probably be a heel and worshipping his brother as the next member of the "Wyatt Family."

Poit

11-09-2012, 01:29 PM

The strangest thing I noticed about the main event was that at one point, someone broke up a pin. Why would you do that during an elimination match?

Bray Wyatt's return was pretty great. Also nice of him to find a local hobo to beat up someone for him.

Mr. Nerfect

11-09-2012, 10:34 PM

I still really want to see a Randy Orton vs. Bray Wyatt feud, with Wyatt bringing "justice" upon Orton for all his wrong-doings over the years (and a throw-back to when Orton punted him in the head). All Wyatt would need to do is hang with Orton for maybe twelve minutes before it looks like Orton is going to win. Then Luke Harper attacks causing the DQ. At the next PPV, have them fight in a Steel Cage Match, and let the depravity of Wyatt's character really come out. Orton can bust him open and Wyatt can get excited at the sight of his own blood, etc. Have Wyatt manage to crawl out of the cage door after continously provoking Orton into staying and fighting to win the match.

The dude is so young, he could be an awesome heel for years to come for the company.

Mr. Nerfect

11-09-2012, 10:37 PM

Jason Jordan has got energy and a good look. I kind of wish his team with Mike Dalton was still going (and it probably will resume randomly on-and-off for a while). Jordan & Dalton could also pick up "Emma" as a valet for their team, although I'd change her name to "Melissa Storm" ("Mel Storm" will ring with Australian fans, and it'd be a throwback to her training with Lance Storm). Why not call them "The Thrillseekers," as well? They could be a nice little babyface team.

Roman Reigns' music doesn't seem to fit the gimmick. Also, I can't help but think that he'd be better off working babyface. He would probably work better with Bo Dallas' current shtick than Bo Dallas does.

Fignuts

11-09-2012, 11:00 PM

Langston is like Ryblack.

Vastardikai

11-09-2012, 11:04 PM

One of the big things going for Luke Harper is that he doesn't have to really change his style much.

Skippord

seriously how shitty were those Bo Dallas spears?

I swear Bray Wyatt absorbed all the talent in that family

Mr. Nerfect

11-10-2012, 01:02 AM

To be fair, Bray Wyatt might come off as shitty if he were trying to be an "all-American good ol' boy" babyface, too. Bo has got the hard job of being a bland babyface.

Fignuts

11-10-2012, 01:04 AM

Bo Dallas looks like an ugly chick.

He's like skinnier Takeshi Morishima.

Fignuts

11-10-2012, 01:17 AM

Kassius Ohno could be amazing, but dude needs to bulk up. He's got a good frame, and actually with his hard hitting moveset, and epic hair and beard combo, he almost reminds me of Bruiser Brody.

Needs to pack on some muscle though, cause his physique is just really nonthreatening.

Really don't know why they are so high on the Rhode Scholars, when they have two far more interesting teams in The Usos and Ascension. Rhode Scholars just aren't that interesting as a team. They are just two guys thrown together as opposed to an actual tag team. And there's no one really like The Usos or Ascension in the WWE right now. I guess there is no one really like Sandow either, but Cody is generic as hell.

Speaking of generic, I can't believe McGillicutty is Curt Henning's son, because he is probably the most boring guy in the company. He's like WCW Saturday Night jobber material. Even if they actually gavr him some sort of gimmick, I don't see him having the talent to get over with it.

Cesaro vs Kidd was great. Too bad Kidd's mic skills suck. Still not feeling Cesaro. His matches and in ring ability are fantastic. Love the remixed malenko theme too. But everything else is just so bland. He just goes out and plays a stereotypical bad guy.

Justin Gabriel is pretty good. Shame he is still apparently learning how to speak english.

Bray Wyatt seems cool, but not as good as I thought he'd be, given the hype he gets around here.

Marked for Roman Reigns using Ruby Frosion as his finisher.

Langston on the mic is almost as hilariously awkward as Lord Alfred Hayes at Wrestlemania I.

I can say that the move from Cottonwood to Bryant (Brodie Lee) is a huge upgrade. All Cottonwood could do well was stand around and look menacing. Bryant can do that. He can also move around and not look awkward. He can also talk and not sound like he's special needs. He can also wrestle, which is a huge plus.

* Bo Dallas actually showed something! That's awesome. He's young, seems to green for his current position, but he's got a bright future ahead of him. He seemed to be more natural as a cocky personality. I also love it when a face tricks a heel. I can't really identify with "stupid faces," but when a heel does something because they are provoked or because of their pride, if you think they are foolish, you are at least thinking it of the person you are meant to want to see get beat.

* Kind of forgot that Yoshi Tatsu & Percy Watson existed. I wish the WWE would do more with both.

* Conor O'Brian looks more intimidating with his new look. Kenneth Cameron surprised me with his flip into the ring. I do like these guys as a team, but they don't really have anyone substantial to feud with. I just had the random thought of an Ascension vs. Briscoe Brothers feuds, which I think would be really cool if the WWE somehow landed Jay and Mark.

* Layla seems so forced as a babyface.

* Corey Graves still exists! Really wanted to like that guy when I saw him that one time on one of the early Full Sail NXT episodes. He's got a distinct look, and he's got this vibe that he just doesn't give a fuck. He really does seem like that guy who smoked cigarettes in elementary school. He's got dark loner down-pat. It works well as a heel that lacks empathy for his opponents, but his frame and rebellious attitude could also make him an intriguing babyface down the line.

* LOL, poor Oliver. He thought the fans were going to get behind his comeback but they were chanting "Let's go Corey!"

* The submission win for Graves made sense, because he targeted the leg. Smart and logical. I think he could be a good regular addition to NXT. Oliver Gray was also perfectly likeable as the enhancing babyface.

* Oh god...they're letting Langston talk again? "Big End" Langston? I like it, although it does sound kind of euphemistic. I kind of like Langston's goofy promo style. It's like he chooses every word he begins his sentence off with so carefully. Why does every guy need to ooze intensity, even during promos? Just let him talk as he does and kick ass in the ring. The best part of this was Tony Luftman doing his best to put Langston over as an enjoyable force by nodding when Langston brings up "five reasons." Langston has been to the Matt Striker school of interviewing, I see.

* I will give whoever is behind NXT creatively credit for knowing that Langston doesn't need to compete every week to be over. This also seems to set up Langston vs. Camacho quite nicely. Cam should be the first guy to get in any sort of meaningful offence on Langston.

* Dusty's former daughter-in-law here. Wait, did she and Goldust actually get married? I know she turned on Goldust eventually, but was that before or after the "I do's?"

* Trust the NXT developmental Divas to be better in the ring than the main roster girls. Aksana probably shouldn't be used in the ring. As she began to channel Xenia Onatopp from Goldeneye, she got better, but still.

* Roman Reigns playing to the cameras and showing a bit more personality. Nice. Not entirely sold on the guy in the ring just yet. He'll get better. He looks comfortable, if nothing else. Byron Saxton was the ring announcer? I wonder where he went. He does a good job, but I wish they used him more. He did a great job forcing enthusiasm.

* You know, that wasn't a bad main event. People don't give Jinder Mahal enough credit around here, and Bo will be something one day. I like the decision to have Mahal win cleanly -- it builds him as the rightful #1 Contender and a threat to Rollins' NXT Championship. Rollins making the save was a perfect ending to the show.

NXT continues to be the best booked thing on WWE television. This episode did suffer from a notable and depressing lack of Paige, however.

Roman Reigns is Sika's son, so he should have the goods.

Bo Dallas still sucks. His promo in the 4-way was horrible last week. Looked so awkward and out of place compared to all the real talent around him. It seems they really want this guy to get over but he's too small and he's goofy looking. Put a mask on him and called him Son of Juvy Juice.

A couple notes:

1. Bronson should be TPDub's favorite wrestler. I mean, he's already a Bad Assed Submission Machine and it looks like he snapped long ago.

2. I read someone compare trading Eli Cottonwood for Luke Harper as "The Wrestling equivalent to trading a bag of baseballs for a solid #2 hitter."

That sucks monkey balls although they could always substitute him with someone else that's on the roster that isn't doing anything currently I'm sure if they really wanted to persure continuing the gimmick.

SSSSSSSSSSSSPOILERS!

Dark Match #1
WWE United States Champion Antonio Cesaro b. Justin Gabriel with an uppercut in a non-title match. After the match, Cesaro delivered a Neutralizer to Gabriel for good measure.

Dark Match #2
Natalya b. Emma with the Sharpshooter.

Episode 1; Airing January 23rd

* The Wyatt Family b. Percy Watson and Yoshi Tatsu when Luke Harper steamrolled Watson with a clothesline to advance in the WWE NXT Tag Team Championship tournament*. (* – The ring announcer never acknowledged this being apart of the tournament, but only 3 other teams are in the semi-finals as seen later on in this report, so it looks like this was a tournament match after all)

* Sasha Banks b. Alicia Fox with her finisher.

* Corey Graves b. Jake Carter with the Fuller Lock. After the match, Graves cuts a promo about being screwed out of a NXT Championship rematch and being excluded from the tournament to crown the first-ever NXT Tag Team Champions. Graves says management better be watching him and tells Alex Riley that he’ll see him next week.

* Adrian Neville and Oliver Grey b. 3MB (Drew McIntyre and Heath Slater; no sign of Jinder Mahal) when Neville hit a corkscrew from the top rope on McIntyre to advance in the WWE NXT Tag Team Championship tournament.

* WWE NXT Champion Big E Langston b. Axl Keegan with the Big Ending in a quick non-title match. After the match, Langston went to hit another Big Ending on Keegan and was about to do the 5 count, but was interrupted by Conor O’Brian on the titantron. O’Brian promises Langston that in 2 weeks, everyone will see what the 5 count means to him. Langston carried on with the 5 count and delivered a few more Big Endings which the crowd ate up to close the show.

Episode 2; Airing January 30th

* Kassius Ohno and Leo Kruger b. Alex Riley and Derrick Bateman when Ohno made Riley tap out to a chinlock to advance in the WWE NXT Tag Team Championship tournament. After the match, Corey Graves came out and attacked Riley from behind but was quickly chased away by Bateman.

* Mason Ryan b. Sakamoto with a jackhammer.

* Paige b. Aksana with a cloverleaf. The crowd erupted when Paige’s music started. After the match, Summer Rae entered the ring and laid out Paige before leaving through the crowd.

* Bo Dallas and Michael McGillicutty b. Epico and Primo w/Rosa Mendes when Dallas hit a scoop slam on Primo to advance in the WWE NXT Tag Team Championship tournament to close the show.

Off-Air: Byron Saxton enters the ring and hypes the appearance of WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels for later and introduces Ricardo Rodriguez. Ricardo announces that the next taping, scheduled for January 31st, will feature an appearance from World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio.

Episode 3; Airing February 6th

* Adrian Neville and Oliver Grey b. Kassius Ohno and Leo Kruger when Neville hit a corkscrew from the tope rope on Kruger to advance in the WWE NXT Tag Team Championship tournament. Grey and Neville will face the winner of the Bo Dallas/Michael McGillicutty vs. The Wyatt Family match in the finals at the next taping.

* “The Ascension” Conor O’Brian b. Mike Dalton with a dropkick. O’Brian was announced with the Ascension term as a new nickname. After the match, O’Brian mocked WWE NXT Champion Big E Langston’s trademark 5 count which led to Langston coming out to confront O’Brian. In an attempt to one-up O’Brian, Langston hits the Big Ending on Dalton. It is announced that Langston will defend the NXT Championship against O’Brian at the next tapings.

* Xavier Woods b. El Local with Culture Shock.

* The Wyatt Family b. Bo Dallas and Michael McGillicutty when Luke Harper clotheslines McGillicutty following a distraction by Bray Wyatt to advance in the WWE NXT Tag Team Championship tournament. The Wyatt Family will face the team of Adrian Neville and Oliver Grey in the finals at the next taping. After the match, Bray enters the ring and extends his hand to his brother Bo, but Bo smacks his hand away. Erick Rowan and Luke Harper surround the ring to distract Bo as he gets hit with a splash by Bray. The Wyatts lay out Bo.

Dark Segment

* WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels comes out to the ring. He puts over the entire NXT roster and talks about the NXT Tag Team Championship, saying he was once a Tag Team Champion and it’s one of the biggest honors of his career. Fans chant for Triple H and Michaels says he’s busy right now. Triple H comes out moments later, but heads to the back and comes back out to Degeneration X music.

* Michaels and Triple H exchange stories and talk about their hair problems. Eventually fans started to chant for Kevin Nash, who came out. The three of them chatted before DX music interrupted and out came Billy Gunn and X-Pac. Fans wondered where Road Dogg was and Triple H responded by saying he’s at home. Damien Sandow interrupted the DX-Kliq reunion, but they barely paid attention to him.

* Triple H eventually apologizes to Sandow on behalf of them all and asks him to do his cartwheel so they can apologize and then end the event. Sandow takes off his robe and Triple H asks that the audience does a drumroll. Sandow does the cartwheel and is immediately hit afterwards with a Sweet Chin Music from Michaels. Everyone but Michaels leaves the ring. Michaels closes things out by saying if you’re not down with that, we got two words for ya and fans say “suck it!”.

From 5 members to one- “The Ascension” Conor O’Brian :'(:'(
