BRM Reviews the 7/3/2019 NXT (great!)

[Big Red Machine]

MIA YIM vs. ALIYAH (w/Vanessa Bourne)- 4.25/10
Mia Yim wins, then throws Vanessa Bourne into the steps for good measure. Then she cut a promo saying she was coming for NXT Women’s Title.

THE FORGOTTEN SONS INTERRUPT WILLIAM REGAL GIVING US AN UPDATE ON CANDICE LERAE- great segment
They storm in and demand that Regal give them a tag team match. Regal pointed out that he gave them one last week and they got themselves DQed, so now they have to “go to the back of the queue.” The Forgotten Sons left, vowing to not forget this slight. They had actual personality. It was great. Regal also announced that Danny Burch & Oney Lorcan would be facing the Street Profits next week.

ADAM COLE RUNS AROUND CLEVELAND BEING A DICK- This was part two last week’s video with Adam Cole celebrating being champion. This was a lot of good heel stuff, including going into Gargano’s Pizza and hanging his own picture with the NXT Title on their wall next to all of the pictures of Johnny, with “To Gargano’s- a champion you can be proud of” written on it.
He took the pizzas he ordered to what I assume is the AIW school where Johnny Gargano had visited back in May and was a total dick to all of the students there, burying both them and Johnny Gargano.

KUSHIDA vs. JEFF PARKER- squash
They’re now calling his Kimura the “Sakuraba Lock.”

SARAH SCHREIBER INTERVIEWS TYLER BREEZE- good

VIDEO TAPE GUY IS ACTUALLY KILLIAN DAIN- He’s angry because “everything I had was taken from me!”

NXT BREAKOUT TOURNAMENT QUARTERFINAL MATCH: Isaiah “Swerve” Scott vs. Cameron Grimes- 7/10
Both guys got decent little video packages and promos. These guys had a very well-paced match which Grimes won cleanly.

BIANCA BELAIR vs. ZUNIGA- AWESOME squash
Bianca obliterated this chick without mercy.

MATT RIDDLE TRAINING VIDEO- good

TYLER BREEZE vs. RODERICK STRONG- 8/10
Roddy worked over Breeze’s back, starting with a SICKENING back suplex onto the steps. Breeze made a great comeback but lost after an Undisputed Era run-in.


A great episode of NXT!
