BO PROMO-
I cannot wait for the pop when Bo loses tonight.
IF BO WINS, HE GETS A TITLE SHOT, IF HE LOSES, HE MUST LEAVE NXT FOREVER: Bo Dallas vs. Big E. Langston- 5.5/10
HUGE pop for Bo losing. I particularly enjoyed the "Bo Leave!" chants.
Bo goes out like a heel should: Totally humiliated. I'm just disappointed that we didn't get to see him be dragged out of the ring by security, kicking and screaming, a la Stephanie McMahon in 2002.
TYSON KIDD PROMO FROM LAST WEEK- decent babyface promo.
SAMI ZAYN & TYLER BREEZE BACKSTAGE SEGMENT- we have another match for Takeover.
PAIGE vs. TAMINA SNUKA- 6.25/10
ADAM ROSE vs. CAMACHO- DUD!
Camacho got himself intentionally counted out, meaning that this went nowhere. A Total waste of time that could have been given to the women's title tournament match.
NXT WOMEN'S TITLE SEMI-FINAL MATCH: Natalya vs. Sasha Banks (w/Charlotte)- 4.5/10
Why do they think it is a good idea to turn Sasha babyface?
ADRIAN NEVILLE vs. CURT HAWKINS- 4/10
Based on his tights, I assume that Curt Hawkins is a Mets fans. He has now been on the main roster for seven years, and I now know ONE thing about him.
This match was short and pointless.
TYSON KIDD & ADRIAN NEVILLE SEGMENT- Tyson Kidd cut a competent but generic promo. He claimed to have a Wreslemania moment, but I cannot, for the life of me, figure out what it was. Neville then cut an okay promo.
Decent build to Takeover.
