NXT Title Samoa Joe vs Shinsuke Nakamura
NXT Women's Title Asuka vs Bayley
NXT Tag Team Titles The Revival vs Ciampa & Gargano
Bobby Rooooooooooo vs Andrade Almas
Austin Aries vs No Way Jose
Ember Moon vs Billie Kay
Joe & Nakamura should both be on the main roster. However, I think in order for Bobby Roode to become NXT champ, he'll need to defeat a face champion, so I'm going with Nakamura & we'll get a Joe call up soon. Speaking of call ups, I think this is Bayley's last night. Crowd should be hot tonight, I'll definitely be watching.

No Way Jose vs Aries to kick things off. NWJ out with a conga line of "NXT fans" going around the ring. He got a loud pop. So did Aries.
Squared Circle douche is firmly planted at ringside.

This is like getting a Nintendo for Christmas in 1988 when you think you're getting socks. Life made me totally forget about this show. So fucking jacked right now.

Ridiculous name aside, for being still relatively green, No Way Jose has looked really good in this one. I liked this match better than Corbin/Aries a few months back.
Aries taps Jose! Solid opener.
Aries is a stud & Jose impressed me, dude hung in there and didn't look the least bit out of place.

Itmai should do an anti-Punk thing once every six months.

I thought it was Eva in blue/brunette doing a Yellow Dog gimmick. Cameron got thick.

Ibushi in the locker room with Nakamura and Funaki. My neighbor heard my pop. I'm serious. No, Jerry, I'm not taking the grandkids for tennis lessons right now. Fucking Ibushi is chilling with Funaki and Nakamura!!!!

Hell of a finisher. Leaping Stunner off the top? I liked it.
Crowd was quiet for most of it, but I enjoyed it and they picked up at the end. Billie Kay was the right girl for her to be in there to make Ember Moon look good.

It's a battle of opposites. I couldn't care less about La Sombra with this dumb gimmick. Yet, I'm a huge fan of Roode & hope he gets the NXT title by years end.
GLORIOUS!!!

This time last year Roode was wrestling Eric Young on a Global Force Wrestling taping. (thank you profightdb)
He's already a bigger star in this entrance than he was at any time in his TNA run.
What an entrance!
La Sombra getting booed. This gimmick is awful.

Revival v Alpha, when Alpha won the titles, is one of the greatest tag matches I've seen in the last thirty years.
