BRM Reviews the 11/27/2013 NXT

[Big Red Machine]

ANTONIO CESARO vs. YOSHI TATSU- good squash
Cesaro comes down to the ring and starts to harass the ring announcer, so William Regal gets up from the commentary desk and pulls the poor ring announcer to safety. Meanwhile, the babyface in this match, Yoshi Tatsu, just stands by and does nothing. Then he takes advantage of Claudio's back being turned when the bell rings to immediately go for a roll-up. Some babyface he is.
During the match, Cesaro would occasionally look over and call out to Regal, which means we might get a match between those two. That would definitely be a dream match for me, and based on the commentary here, it would be a dream match for Renee Young, too, albeit a different kind of dream match.

BO DALLAS & CJ PARKER BACKSTAGE- Parker is clearly kayfabe high, but still came up with an awesome catchphrase: "you just landed yourself on the dark side of the moon child."


CJ PARKER vs. BO DALLAS- 3.25/10
Very short

EMMA & PAIGE BACKSTAGE- apparently Emma got jumped backstage at some point and is now injured, so she can't wrestle. She and Paige have a confrontation to build up to an eventual title match.

PAIGE & NATALYA BACKSTAGE- Okay, this REALLY feels like I missed a week where women's angles are concerned because now Nattie is confronting Paige over Paige being disrespectful to her in the locker room. Paige alledges that Nattie doens't care about the "women's title" (Paige is awesome) now that she is doing Total Divas. Paige challenges Nattie to a title match TONIGHT and Nattie accepts. WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU NOT DO THIS FOR A TIME WHEN YOU COULD GIVE IT MORE BUILD! IT'S PAIGE VS. NATTIE!
(edit: apparently that match didn't happen tonight. They really should have been more clear on this.)

KASSIUS OHNO vs. TYLER BREEZE- no rating. Good segment.
Rusev jumps Ohno before the match, allowing Breeze to get the easy win.

BAILEY & THE BFF'S BACKSTAGE- a good segment reminding us of Charlotte's heel turn and teasing a mystery partner for Bailey in an upcoming tag match

DEVIN TAYLOR INTERVIEWS ADRIAN NEVILLE & SAMI ZAYN- both men were good. Especially Neville.

HUNICO & CAMACHO vs. THE ASCENSION- too short
but WHOA! The Ascension lost!

WINNER GETS AN NXT TITLE MATCH NEXT WEEK: Sami Zayn vs. Adrian Neville- 7.25/10
Bo Dallas was on commentary and kept saying "un-Bo-lievable." I hate Bo SO MUCH!

Overall, a pretty good episode of NXT.

must have been a slip of the tongue, remember they do tape several episodes on a single night

Yeah, but that is all the more reason why they should have re-shot this segment.
