NXT is taking home a lot of our favorites this week. As if there’s something big going on in wrestling, they’re aware of it and want to look good for a reason. do not know.Anyway, Geno blog this week. He’s not Claire, but he does.
Let’s talk NXT!
he bleedswe can kill him
Anyone who comes to Blonbreaker looks for weaknesses. W. Ilja Dragunov believes he found it last week when he accidentally headbutted Bronn. Granted, it wasn’t meant for Bronn, but he’s glad it happened.
The fact that we are where these two are at odds shows that JD’s plan is working. This is a fact Kevin Owens pointed out while the three men were guesting on his KO show. Since KO is human, he is put off by McDonagh’s creepiness. Even during the segment, JD creeped everyone out with his presence alone. He went to me too, but I wasn’t there either.
You watch wrestling, so you know how this goes. In the end, everyone involved fought even though KO told them to calm down.When in wrestling has anyone heard that?JD said he thought the two were fighting I’ve been watching you for a while. halloween havok— but eventually got caught in the action. Rather, he was involved in the action.
But that’s not the big story here. None of the interesting character work between the three men or his KO comedy is a cliffhanger for NXT’s next big event. No, that honor belongs to Austin Theory.
A theory emerged with a briefcase in hand, hinting at cashing in on the NXT Championship deal. Based on Theory’s last few weeks, it all makes sense in the world Rawplus the fact that he hasn’t beaten Roman Reigns at any point between now and now. wrestlemaniaDragunov, the last man to stand in the ring, held his belt high and acted as if theory didn’t exist. Based on how both men portray their respective characters and how other wrestlers react to them, this is appropriate.
It’s a nice wrinkle that goes inside halloween havok And it really makes us wonder if Bronn’s time as champion is over.
Best segment of the night ever.

Overpowering Rhea Ripley was never an option for Roxanne Perez. Smarter and quicker than Ripley was the name of the game if she wanted a chance to get her W. Rhea dominated most of the match with overwhelming power. It was a classic David and Goliath story. Of course, in this version, Goliath is outfitted with Dominic and the rest of Judgment Day. That was the difference in the game.
Now, on an analytical level, which is why I’m here, WWE is in trouble. Rhea Ripley is second to none in NXT. Even more so with Roxanne.But Roxanne doesn’t look weak halloween havokLogic says the card has a shenanigans-filled finish. Granted, the distraction turned out to be lethal as Perez caught Riptide by taking his eyes off his opponent, but the distraction isn’t real interference. but that’s not what we got. Roxanne doesn’t look like a competitor overwhelmed by the number of things she put her all into, but rather a competitor who isn’t smart enough to keep her attention squarely on her opponent.
Lubou.
But more…
Cora Jade vs. Raquel Rodriguez got the finish I wanted over Roxanne vs. Rhea. Korra lured Raquel to attack with a kendo stick, the referee rang the bell, and Roxanne attacked her cheap W glory-bathed rival.

Shinsuke Nakamura is back in NXT for at least one night, all thanks to Tony D’Angelo. Nakamura served as Stax’s punishment. And yeah, it was punishment. Don made a meal out of the fact that the stack went down after two Kinshasas, but that’s also kind of untrue. The first knocked Stax out of the ring, but the second came when Stax accepted the inevitable.
Hmm.
Got That Fire
So, as I always say, NXT, stay away from abduction angles. Mandy Rose showed up this week after Alba Fire kidnapped her a few weeks ago. There was no explanation, no reason, no real solution. It’s just that Mandy said Alba made the wrong move to kidnap her. what? that’s it?
At that point Alba defeated the rest of Toxic Attraction and Sonya Deville and got tangled up with Mandy. The Alba that was on the road now looks like another bump on the road.
The match between Sonya and Alba was good. I just don’t have enough time. This always has a negative effect on this packed show.
Score
Speaking of quick! Carmelo Hayes & Trick Williams in a tag team match against Wes Lee & Oro Mensah, where he lasted five minutes. It really was an instant, missed match that started in the locker room and ended quickly in the ring. The point was to gather the ladder match contestants into a ball of confusion.
The “match” did nothing for me, but I’m still high on this ladder match.
young guns
The 6 man tag team was so much fun and really dope. OC paid Cameron Grimes to go against The Schism. Grimes worked brilliantly with Gallows & Anderson. It looks like a veteran trio. We got smooth interactions, fluid teamwork, and contrasting styles. The split worked well too, so it’s a shame they’re trapped behind this current gimmick. He despises Grimes for his inability to control him. Gacy feeds on easily manipulated minds and lost souls. Finding someone who is neither is his Kryptonite. I love it and wish for more.
Of course, OC got the W for the team. Because no one from the main roster showed up this week and took the L.
The host with the most … and tanks
Shotzi is your halloween havok host. thought you should know Oh, and Chucky will also appear. i promise you. And Quincy Elliott is her co-host, thanks to a pretty crushing victory over Shion Quinn. Elliot is too much for that. Quincy really reminded me of old-school Missy Elliott this week, either because of her last name or her outfit, and she’s so grateful.
Hank is still working for Quinn.
This was a very average edition of NXT. Especially for a homecoming show. They definitely set the stage, halloween havok, There were many balls in the air which created a very difficult juggling act. Sometimes it wasn’t attractive TV.Doesn’t mean it was a bad show, just a little below average. But that didn’t dampen my hopes halloween havok Jeez. that’s a plus.
Grade: B-
That’s my grade and I’m sticking with it. your turn.
