Last week's episode of NXT was one of the best NXT show of 2019 so far. The question is, Can this episode of NXT top that? No, but it was a decent episode though.
Mustache Mountain vs The Forgotten Sons.
This was a decent match. During the match, Tyler Bate delivered a double aeroplane spin to Steve Cutler and Wesley Blake. The match ended with The Forgotten Sons did a reversed DDT into a double stomp from the top rope, won the match and is in the finals of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.
After the match, Matt Riddle was interrupted by Adam Cole and Adam said that he's deserving of a North American championship match. Riddle then proposed a match between himself and Adam Cole. Count me in.
Io Shirai vs Bianca Belair.
This was okay. The match ended in a DQ because of the champ Shayna Baszler and she put Bianca Belair, Io Shirai and Kairi Sane to sleep with a clutch submission. Gotta be honest, not a fan of that ending.
I get it that WWE wants to set up a fatal four-way match between all of those women but it made the champion look really dumb with that finish. Like can't Baszler just watch two wrestlers beat each other for an opportunity to face her rather than interfering the action if you know what I mean? I will say this, the percentage for Shayna Baszler losing the championship is pretty high.
Aleister Black and Ricochet vs #DIY.
A very entertaining main event. Aleister Black’s moonsault mix with his quickness is a thing of wrestling beauty. The team of Aleister Black and Ricochet won the match with the black mass followed by a 630 splash from Ricochet.
After the match, Tommaso Ciampa tried to turn on Johnny Gargano again but Gargano got the best in the NXT champion with the full sail crowd chanted “Johnny Wrestling”. I believe this is the Tommaso Ciampa’s last televised match before his neck surgery. Get well soon champ.
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos:
Like: Aleister Black and Ricochet vs #DIY.
Didn't like: The ending of the Io Shirai vs Bianca Belair match.
