OPENING SEGMENT- GREAT!
Corey Graves comes out to explain his motivation for turning last week, but he is jumped from behind by an angry Adrian Neville and they have a short but good brawl. instantly, this just became the most heated rivalry on NXT!

EMMA vs. SASHA BANKS (w/Summer Rae)- 3.25/10
Emma lost! BOOOOOO! Paige jumped Summer Rae to build to a match between those two... and then Emma and Paige had a miscue, so I guess we're building to a three-way.

BO PROMO- He says he is going on vacation... so NO MORE BO! HOORAY! But I swear to God, Bo, if you give us another stupid video from your car, I will throw something!

CASEY MARON & TOMMY TAYLOR vs. THE ASCENSION-
I thought that after winning the belts, the Ascension would stop it with the damn squash matches, but apparently not.

SAMI ZAYN PROMO- very good. He even draws some parallels between himself and Daniel Bryan and tries to tie the main WWE storyline into NXT.

JBL PROMO- F*CKING AWESOME!
And Sami Zayn is suspended. BOOOO!

ALEXANDER RUSEV vs. CJ PARKER- Squash
Parker gets squashed while some random blonde appears at ringside and seems happy.

WHAT THE F*CK?! We just had a MAJOR angle (Tyler Breeze jumped CJ Parker and cut some of his hair off) take place DURING A COMMERCIAL BREAK!

COREY GRAVES vs. ADRIAN NEVILLE- 6.75/10
I'm not too happy with the heel getting a clean win in the first match of the feud, but they told a good story here. Graves attacks Neville on the outside after the match and locks Lucky 13 in on him.
