Thoughts: I liked what we got of it. The crowd was into it and they had some power behind their slams and spinebusters. They did a nice job here. Both men really need some promo time though each week to grow though.

Thoughts: I liked what we got here. Joe's a good foil for KC as he's a likeable, not so intimidating face while KC is the exact opposite. The only bad thing is that Joe is a little taller than KC and it exposed his height a little.

Lizzy Rain does a video. She says they said she was too loud and gritty and unapologetic. She says hse will never apologize for who she is. She says the stage is set for her debut and find out that her and heavy metal will never die.

Thoughts: Rain won an MVP award at a tryout recently and I guess they were impressed enough to put her on NXT right from the start. Every European they put on NXT though gives me less hope in NXT Europe happening...

WWE Speed Title - Lexis King vs EK Prosper

EK flips over him into a backslide. King pulls him by the hair and slaps him. EK chops him. EK flips into the ropes and dropkicks him. EK dropkicks him in the corner and slingshot guillotine legdrops him for 2. King slides out and King hides behind Arianna Grace.

EK is knocked off the top. EK overhead throws him off the apron. EK top rope moonsaults King and his buddies outside. Arianna slaps EK and EK hits King's buddies outside. King hits the coronation neckbreaker on EK and pins him.

Thoughts: It was a little rushed but they didn't do that bad with all that was going on. I guess this helps give King's group some credibility. Like Dion and Myles, EK needs some more mic time to get the audience familiar with him.

The Vanity Project are at a bar and they want to spy on Drake's date. Drake says the girl never showed up. Smokes and Brad try to make him feel better. Drake says Lebron took L's and if he can take an L, so can he. Bayley Humphrey then asks if he got stood up and seems to want to go out with him. We then cut away.

Shugars says he's not getting the rematch and said Stone told him it had to be him who got the rematch. Shugars says Dion meant "by any means" and asks if he meant that. Shugars says he's bringing the title home next week.

Thoughts: It was an entertaining bout with some gimmicky weapons and the two having some fun moments against each other. I enjoyed this. This probably should be Blake's swan song in NXT as it's not really helping her all that much.

Jackson Drake is dating with Bayley Humphrey. She says she used to be a mortician assistant. He thinks it's hot. He says he's never been so happy to be stood up before. He shows her the girl he was supposed to date and she says it's an AI bot. Drake says he knows who did this. Bayley says let's go get some dinner and says his friends can join if they want. Drake doesn't want them to come but Bayley does. Bayley then shoves a guy as they leave.

Lola Vice comes out to talk. She says she showed everyone the champ she could be in her first title defense. She says Jacy Jayne reinvented herself. She says the hardest part of being a champ is keeping it. She says she feels it and sees it. She says the division is deep, hungry and full of girls ready for their moment. She says the girls aren't competition but threats. She says she's ready to face the girls who want a shot as she is that girl. She says you are stepping into a fight with her. She says facing her will just get you knocked out and danced on.

Izzi Dame comes out with The Culling. Izzi says Lola acts like she cleared out the whole division with one defense. She says Lola called her a threat and it's true. Izzi says the whispers are getting louder in the locker room. Izzy says she's watching and learning while Lola swings on everything that moves. She says she's waiting for Lola to make a mistake. She says Lola is a champ who will lose in small moments, not big one. She says she will rip her apart.

Lola says Izzi's waiting sounds like hesitation to her. She says by the time she comes for her, she will get her @ss kicked. Izzi says she's 2 steps ahead. The Culling surround Lola, Niko grabs Lola's title and Izzi facekicks her down. Izzi then poses with the title on her.

The Birthright are interviewed. Kin says he's the fastest man alive as the Speed champ. He says they are real stars and won't stop until everyone has gold. EK Prosper comes in. He says King wouldn't be champ without his crew and they need to run it back. Dorian Van Dux comes in and says the heels won't fight fair. He says he will team with EK though. The heels talk smack and agree. Arianna says they have to leave as they have a championship celebration.

We get a video on Kendal Grey. She talks about amateur wrestling and growing up in Vegs. She says she competed against guys in high school. She says she was a tomboy.

Stone is asked about Shiloh Hill but he has no updates.

Tony D'Angelo is given a box with Japanese characters on it. Stone tells him he will know who his challenger is next week. Keanu Carver comes in. He says if he wants a shot he will take it. He says the box has a symbol of war on it and he better be ready as there's sharp snakes circling around here.

Last Man Standing Match - Sol Ruca vs Zaria

Zart tries to attack her from behind. Sol hits mounted shots and lariats her over the top. Sol 2nd rope tornillo's her outside. Zar boots her in the face then throws a trash can at her face. Sol dropkicks a trash can into her. 

Zar whips her with a cord. She then wraps it around Sol's mouth and lifts her. Sol hits her with a trash can lid. Sol facebusters her. Sol hits her with a kendo stick. Sol puts a kendo stick in her mouth and pushes her into the mat.

Zar pump kicks her outside. Sol spears her through the riser. We go to PiP break and return. They fight on the rail top. Zar F-5's her off of it through the commentary table. Zar puts a table against the riser. Sol germans her on the floor and running knees her. Zar bangs Sol's head off a table and off the post. Sol hits her with the side legs of the commentary table. 

Sol climbs on top of the riser. Zaria goes missing. Sol leapfrogs her spear on the riser. Sol hits a sol snatcher off a rail maybe onto the riser top. They trade shots. Sol nearly pushes her off. Zar says she's sorry and she loves her. Sol pulls her away from the edge and stares at her. They look at each other and hug. Zar then pushes Sol off the riser through the two tables next to each other. Sol seems to hit her head on one table as she goes through another. Sol then can't meet the 10 count and loses.

Thoughts: They went all out here and put out a strong effort for this. It's a shame it got cut up some by a break. Sol was a dumb babyface in the end, but it made for a good dramatic ending. This was a good bout and should be the end of Sol's run in NXT as she heads to the main roster.

Overall thoughts: It was a good show and they basically gave us a PLE level card for free here. I liked Borne/Dion. The stuff with The Vanity project was entertaining. Hendry/Carver clicked well together. King/Prosper had too much shenanigans going on. Paxley/Blake was an entertaining bout and the main event was very good. This was a complete NXT and as always, they got a lot done. This show also should be the final NXT matches of Sol, Blake and Hendry which made it more special I'd give this an 8 out of 10 and I thought this was worth a look.
