BRM Reviews the 7/12/2017 NXT

[Big Red Machine]

ALEISTER BLACK vs. BOBBY FISH- 7.5/10
Within the span of a minute, all of the following were said on commentary:
Kazushi Sakuraba
Pride
The UFC HOF
Puroresu
One of the Gracies

If you want to kill Vince, just get him to watch this match with the commentary.

ITAMI & OHNO BACKSTAGE AFTER LAST WEEK’S LOSS- Itami blames Ohno. Ohno gets annoyed at him. Good stuff.

MAE YOUNG CLASSIC QUALIFYING MATCH: Jayme Hachey vs. Vanessa Borne- 0.5/10
Well… they didn’t embarrass themselves, so that’s good. They both looked green as goose poop.

THE STREET PROFITS ARE COMING- they look fun.

THE VELVETEEN DREAM REBUFFS KAYLA BRAXTON’S ATTEMPT TO INTERVIEW HIM- decent I guess.

FOOTAGE OF SANITY JUMPING DREW MCINTRYE IN THE PARKING LOT LAST WEEK- fine.
SAnitY was still down to just Wolfe and Dain.

WILLIAM REGAL & BOBBY ROODE BACKSTAGE- good
Dain and Drew are both undefeated, so they’re going to have a #1 contendership match next week, with the winner getting a title shot at Takeover: Brooklyn III.

JOHNNY GARGANO PROMO- meh

NXT TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH: The Authors of Pain(c) (w/Paul Ellering) vs. Heavy Machinery- 4.5/10
F*ck this standard “babyface in peril” sh*t. When you give me a match between these two teams, I WANNA SEE A HOSS-FIGHT!

POST-MATCH SEGMENT- SAnitY show up (including Nikki Cross but without EY). Apparently they stole the book of dominance and ripped it up.

An easy show to sit through from NXT, although the only thing that was particularly good was the opener.

Yeah I wanted and expected so much more from that main event lol.
