BRM Reviews the 5/22/2013 NXT

SAMI ZAYN vs. CURT HAWKINS- 3.5/10
This new Sami Zayn guy is ugly. He should wear a mask.
To all those claiming that Sami Zayn is former indy worker El Generico, the announcers told us that Zayn has dedicated his whole life to training so he could make it to WWE. Anyone who knows anything about El Generico knows that Generico has dedicated his whole life to helping orphans, so they clearly are not the same person.
A very short match, but Zayn actually got “let’s go Sami!” chants in his first match, so that is a good sign. The announcers also did a job of putting over how big a win over a former WWE Tag Team Champion is.

CORY GRAVES VIDEO PACKAGE- great

YOSHI TATSU vs. ANTONIO CESARO- eh squash. After the match, Cesaro demands better competition. His challenge is answered by Sami Zayn. Zayn spoke English, French, and some Arabic in this promo, and everyone knows that El Generico only speaks Spanish, so they are clearly not the same person.

ANTONIO CESARO vs. SAMI ZAYN- no rating, great segment.
The match didn’t go too long, and Cesaro got in most of the offense until Zayn got a roll-up victory, and Cesaro jumped him afterwards. This did a great job of getting over Zayn’s resilience.

DIVAS BACKSTAGE- when did Audrey Marie turn heel? Anyway, this segment was pretty fun

ENZO AMORE PROMO- good words, but his delivery was way too over the top.

ENZO AMORE vs. MASON RYAN- squash

COREY GRAVES vs. BRAY WYATT (w/the Wyatt Family)- 5.25/10
Wyatt dominated pretty much the entire match on his own, then got caught in Graves’ submission and needed help to win. After the match Kassius Ohno comes out and attacks the Wyatt family, but gets beaten down.
Hold #712: ARM BAR!
