BRM Reviews the 7/1/2015 NXT
Posted: Jul 2nd, '15, 00:03
THE VAUDEVILLANS vs. DASH WILDER & SCOTT DAWSON- 3/10
Why are the Vaudevillans still around? Their gimmick is dumb and they haven’t improved in any way since their debut.
BECKY LYNCH INJURY NEWS- she’ll be off of TV for a few weeks, but when she comes back she wants to win the title. Cool.
BARON CORBIN vs. TUCKER KNIGHT- DUD!
Baron Corbin has now entered “The Ascension Zone,” which mean all of his squashes from here on out will be given a DUD!
ENZO, CASS, & THE VAUDEVILLANS BOTHER REGAL- these two teams are facing off for #1 contendership next week.
FINN BALOR VIDEO PACKAGE PART 3- nowhere near as good as the other parts.
MVP SIGHTING!
EVA MARIE TRAINING VIDEO- Well… Eva doesn’t look completely terrible now, but more importantly… SARA DEL REY SIGHTING!
CARMELLA vs. EMMA (w/Dana Brooke)- 2.75/10
The person with the sign declaring that “Carmella is the queen of NXT,” can go f*ck right off.
BULL DEMPSEY IS FAT AND WANTS JUNK FOOD- He is also a slob. Regal lectures him. This angle is dumb, but at least it seems to be ending.
DEVIN INTERVIEWS JASON JORDAN LAST WEEK- Chad Gable shows up again. He’s getting quite annoying.
TYLER BREEZE vs. TYE DILLENGER- 2.5/10
Tyler’s new seasonal resident is in Cairo, Egypt. In the middle of the summer? What an idiot!
EMMA & DANA BOTHER SASHA-I don’t like it. Why are we turning Sasha babyface. I mean… a BFF reunion won’t be awesome without Summer Rae, so why build to it? Also, Dana’s delivery is way too goofy. Then again, this whole segment was a little goofy.
KEVIN OWENS & RHYNO vs. FINN BALOR & SAMOA JOE- 7/10
Great for such a short match. Balor pins Owens to build to The Beast in the East, but if I were booking it, I’d have had Balor pin Rhyno instead.
This show was the same as a lot of the recent NXT shows have been: a bunch of squashes or short matches followed by a main event… and I’m not a fan. It makes everything but the main event feel entirely pointless.
