I really want to marry Emma. I don't think I'm asking for too much here.

Apparently Emma is born in 89, only 24.

Kofi Kingston ever jobbing on NXT. I like Rusev, but he really needs his old messy hairstyle back. Don't take him seriously with his current hair style.

Pretty good match with Emma and Natalya. Why can't they put this kind of women's rasslin on the main shows?

That sing-off was a surprisingly good segment. Looking forward to Aiden English's first feud here.

What is going on with Mason Ryan? Weird dude in a weird place.
I like how 2 out of 3 falls matches have sort of become an "NXT Specialty Match". To the point where they have created a graphic for it. |

Right so I've only watched the last two episodes of NXT.
My thoughts after watching with 'Fresh Eyes' The Good - Kane/Kofi - Big star appearances can only be a good thing. - Fans pop on hearing that Tyler Breeze has arrived in the building...WWE don't do this anymore but it made him seem like a 'Big Deal'. He was good in the ring and worked his gimmick really well...top marks. Loved him calling Adrian Neville so he didn't have to look at him. - They havn't removed the guys who have moved to the main roster from the opening titles..Shows that these guys are on the verge of 'making it' - Emma looks awesome...I always go for a piss when Diva segments come on...it's like a personal tradition...I didn't during Emma's match with Natalya that says alot to me....Bailey also looks pretty good...Summer Rae should never be allowed to lace up boots again...she's more suited to being a valet. - Rusev looks like an absolute beast. Regal made a comment that managing him would just be a case of pointing and saying 'destroy'....Thats how he should be booked..Never.speak..Just maul and destroy at the behest of a really good voice guy, - Sami Zayn - He's a cool gimmick away from being ready, His ringwork was really crisp and he's got that something a great underdog should have. I'd give him a spot in The Rumble... Three Way next week between Zayn, Breeze and English for the spot would be great. - The Acension - Cool look, Good in the ring. Every ingredient there...Probably get called up soon. Proper team and loved that the tag titles were the main event this week. The Bad - The 'Sing - Off' was dreadful....made both guys look awful. - Rusevs Valet was just annoying...Didnt get 'heat' from me...I just wanted her off the mic and indeed the screen. - Aiden English's Gimmick is awful...Its like Cena's 'rapper' but irrelevant in its time. He's decent in the ring though. - Colin Cassady looks really 'gangly' He'd benefit from getting into some pants like most other workers with that body type do... Nash/Test etc - Xavier running straight at Rusev at the start of the match..Sure it makes him look like he's full of 'heart' but NOBODY should approach Rusev without caution. I'll be watching in future though..I was overall very impressed. |

I liked when Neville was like "do you like games?" and Breeze was like "no, I hate them".

Bayley is just adorable and a pretty good worker. She joins Paige and Emma as Divas who could shake up the babyface side of the female division on the main roster. Paige and Emma are about due to be called up (Paige is an obvious choice and Emma has been working house shows and is also amazing). Bayley can step up in this time and do some work with Summer Rae, Sasha Banks (my pick to take the NXT Women's Title from Paige) and Charlotte. She may find some allies in the likes of Becky Lynch and Sarah Blackman (or whatever her ring name is).

Before the announcement of the WWE Network, I always envisioned NXT eventually putting on "specials." I always imagined Bo Dallas vs. Sami Zayn in a Ladder Match for the NXT Title and Paige vs. Emma for the Women's Title at the very first one. Tyler Breeze vs. Adrian Neville would have been a nice touch, as well.
I hope that in the future, NXT runs a "Clash of the Champions" live show, with the NXT Champion vs. WWE World Champion, NXT Tag Champs vs. WWE Tag Champs and Women's Champ vs. Divas Champ. You could also run an IC Champion vs. US Champion match if you wanted to pad the show out. |

Now that NXT is part of the WWE Network, I wonder if they will make more of an effort to push the brand as something worth watching. It has probably been the best booked show the WWE has for a long time. Michael Cole even called it his favorite on SmackDown.

Push as in a lot more promotion in general for NXT or for them to get a lot more hands-on with the show?
Would be great if it got a lot more promotion but would be really wary of the WWE meddling too much causing more harm that good down the line. The WWE being very hands-off with NXT has been one of its biggest strengths so far. |

Tyler Breeze was pretty great in his segment with Neville. Neville ain't that great at talking, though.

I just meant more promotion and more of an emphasis on what is going on down there. I wouldn't want things becoming too meddled up down there.
I absolutely loved how Kane brought up the petition Xavier Woods started. |

Neville doesn't usually do great promos, but sometimes I've heard him speak and have been pleasantly surprised. Real hit or miss.

Good match between Neville/Breeze. Best I've seen from Breeze yet.
That Rusev/Kingston match was the first time I have seen the NXT fans dump all over something. I like Rusev, he just need to learn to be more... I dunno... "interactive" with the fans. Engage them more. |

He's gone slightly downhill since changing his hair style and doing away with his wooden boards. I still see potential in him though. I loved his debut match against Dolph Ziggler. Possibly still his best work.

He seems like he can work just fine, but the character is just so played out.

Rusev isn't that bad as a wrestler but his biggest problem is he's slowly becoming just another typical big man monster heel that Vince/WWE still favor way too much. He's a bit bland character-wise now for NXT but fits perfectly as someone to be fed to Cena/another top face for the main roster like almost every other big man heel. |

I think Rusev has potential, there's just something that needs a bit of tweaking. Maybe Rusev needs a slicker look?
