Thoughts: It was good at times and it was a disaster at times. There were a lot of sloppy moments. The face vs face dynamic hurt things here as Ig hitting faces with his toy doesn't work as well as when he does it with heels.  There were also just awkward moments where the flow was lost. I can't really put this one over as it had too many issues.

Thoughts: It went a little too long and they did too much. They really botched the mask ripping spot. Doc should have had a big comeback off of it with him being furious and instead they ruined it from the start with Page booting him, killing all the excitement. At least Page didn't win clean here. I still liked the match overall though..

Thoughts: Blake was definitely the favorite here and won as expected. That should make for some interesting drama between these three and lead to a Sol/Blake match at some point. It was a decent match here and they did a good job of incorporating Sol into this.

TP rolls her up for 2. They trade forearms and punch each other at the same time. They go for flying kicks at the same time. The Culling and Fatal Influence both come out. Security stops them. Izzi Dame comes in the ring with the title. She seemingly tries to hit TP, but is hit by Jacy. TP then then hits a tequila shot on Jacy and wins.

Thoughts: It went a little long and the finish was a bit unusual here with Izzi seemingly trying to hit Tatum. The match was alright but would have been better if it were shorter. I don't mind Tatum winning. She's as over as she may ever be and Jacy doesn't really need it. I'm curious where things go now as Jacy doesn't need the title again.

Thoughts: It was much better than their match at Showdown. Dion maybe botched a table bump but that was only half on him. The match got a little too much time but it was good bout. The Hardy's went all out as usual and Dion had some nice highlight moments here. The booking of The Hardy's losing the title so soon is a little weird but that's what happens when you are the junior partners in a partnership. 

Evans and Leon Slater talk in the back. They say that was a war and they aren't happy Dark State won. They say that doesn't sit right. Leon says it's always a numbers game. Evans says they have unfinished business with Dark State. Leon says they should jump them. Evans says they should go after the tag titles. Leon says he's a little busy with the X-Division Title but he's locked in after.

El Grande Americano does a promo in Spanish. He says he's heading home to Mexico. I think he tells Rio and Bravo to go after the Speed title.

Thoughts: It was one of Trick's longest matches yet. He did a bunch of stuff he doesn't normally do and unlike in some other matches, they didn't limit him much here. It was acceptable and okay but nothing too great. I'm interested to see where Trick goes from here as he has done everything in NXT and I'm not sure what's next.

Tatum is interviewed in the back with The Culling. She's thrilled and hugs the interviewer saying it's the biggest night of her life. Izzi is asked about her intentions and says not to make this about her. Tatum says if you thought NXT was crazy, it'll get crazier on Tuesday.

Overall thoughts: It went almost 3 hours, which I expected as this was competing against AEW Collision which went from 8pm-10pm. The opener had an even mix of good and bad. Page/Wagner got a lot of time. They had a chance to do something great but didn't get there. It was still good though. Zaria/Blake was a decent match. 

Tatum Paxley pulled off the upset in her match and won the title. It was an alright match but would have been better if it was shorter. We had a good Hardy's/DarkState hardcore match which was the best thing on here. Trick/Saints was alright but not great. Trick got to do more than usual and was not as limited.

I'd give a 6 out of 10 overall. It was good but everything went a bit long here and nothing was great.
