WWE NXT Level Up 6/3/2022

Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2022/05/wwe-nxt-level-up-5272022.html

Fallon Henley vs Brooklyn Barlow

I think this is Brooklyn Barlow's 2nd match. Fallon hits a nice armdrag then they stand off after a headscissors. Fallon rolls to get our of a wristlock then tries for a trip to get out but can't. Barlow then rolls and wrist throws her. Barlow goes for a pin but Fallon rolls with it and tries to pin her.

They do a knucklelock and Fallon hits a dropkick. Barlow throws her by the wrist then legdrops the arm. Barlow then hooks her with her leg and pulls on her chin for an interesting hold. Fallon breaks free, hiptosses her, lariats her and facebusters her. Fallon then hits a running kick and wins it.

This really wasn't bad at all. Brookyln Barlow looked decent here and this was maybe the best thing I've seen Fallon in yet.

Tatum Paxley vs Sloane Jacobs

Tatum goes for a backdrop but is rolled up. Tatum then rolls her up and takes a backslide. Tatum rolls backwards out of it and slips into a butterfly suplex position. Tatum then squats her and slams her. Tatum double reverse armbars her and pulls on the chin in a neat move. Sloane gets out and headlock takeovers her. Sloan shoulder blocks her and kicks her in the chest for 2.

Sloane puts her in some kind of sleeper/headlock. Sloane runs at her and takes some chest forearms then a neckbreaker. Tatum dropkicks her then hits Karelin's lift for 2. Tatum catches her kick then does a neat electric chair drop into a powerbomb to win it.

This was different than other Tatum matches. They worked slower here and did more holds. Tatum's finisher was really cool and pretty unique. This wasn't a bad effort at all.

 Edris Enofe and Malik Blade vs Dante Chen and Javier Bernal

 

Blade goes up the buckles and armdrags Chen early. Chen gets thrown into the buckles chest first, is tripped then Enofe 619's him. Bernal hiptosses Enofe then Chen corner splashes him. Bernal bends over and Enofe jumps off his back and dropkicks Chen. Blade trips Bernal and Enofe back elbows him.

Blade gets stuck on the 2nd rope and takes a backcracker. Bernal sliding lariats Blade as Chen holds him. Blade takes an atomic drop then takes a knee buster on Bernal's leg. Blade rolls into a hot tag then Enofe comes in and lariats and dropkicks Chen. Chen is tied up in the ropes and takes corner attacks from Enofe. Enofe then flips onto the apron using the ropes and does some kind of knee off the apron on Bernal.

Enofe hits a very high top rope elbow on Chen for 2. The crowd chants "that was 3" over it, though it didn't look like it. Chen pump kicks Enofe then Enofe hits a reverse sling blade on Bernal. Bernal then is put on Enofe's shoulder and has his legs held for a stunner and the Enofe/Blade win.

This wasn't bad at all with Enofe having a couple of nice highlights. Enofe and Blade continue to show that they are a decent tag team.

They all shake hands after.

Overall thoughts: All 3 of the matches were fine, so this ended up being a fun little show.
