Grayson Waller’s gimmick seems to be a cross between Marc Mero and Too Cool.ĭuke Hudson’s poker playing did not come into play (pun intended) in this match, though I don’t know how one would use the cards as a weapon. I don’t even want to see the spin off into a feud because each needs a more charismatic counterpart to make the other more interesting.Īndre Chase is the only NXT Superstar who gets to say the f-word multiple times per segment, good on him. I’m just counting down the days for this Von Wagner and Kyle O’Reilly tag team to end. The two snaps and a clap is going to get over in live arena settings. When all is said and done, there might be nothing she can’t do. In addition to her undeniable charisma, Lash Legend can sing as well. Lash Legend made a timely “Squid Games” reference that got enthusiastic (if not fake) laughter from the live audience. Julius Creed and Ikemen Jiro are two of my favorites in NXT, though I like the Creed Brothers better as a tag team so I was rooting for Jiro. Julius Creed fantastically no-sold a forearm from Ikemen Jiro by taking a bump and popping right back up. She’s obviously athletic but has a fantastic presence in the ring, though the match got sloppy in parts. Of course, this match was kept short, but NXT is on to something with Ivy Nile.


There was a vignette for a mystery star that said “I have to bury the past so I can start again,” and all signs point to Elias. This match was all but ruined by dueling chants for Quinn and Malik Blade that didn’t let up.
