BRM Reviews the 9/16/2015 NXT
Posted: Sep 16th, '15, 21:46
OPENING SEGMENT- Tyler Breeze showed up to have a match, I think. Then Adam Rose came out and I think Rose was supposed to be his opponent. Adam Rose’s new gimmick appears to be that of a spiteful buzzkill, which makes perfect sense when you consider how his career went. His promo was awesome!
Then Bull Dempsey came out and cut a promo on Tyler and the two of them had a segment while Rose just stood there in ring with them, not doing anything. That was weird.
Dempsey: “You look surprised to see me, Breeze. Did you think I was just going to crawl into a hole?
Breeze: *shrugs* “maybe.”
Tyler Breeze is so awesome.
Bull asked Rose to let him take his place in the match, but Rose said no and slapped Bull in the face. Bull beat Rose up. Breeze jumped Bull from behind, but bailed when Bull started to make a comeback.
TYLER BREEZE PROMO- he wants to face Dempsey next week.
TYE DILLENGER vs. DANNY BURCH- 0.25/10
Like a squash, but slow and boring.
CORBIN & RHYNO PROMO- good
ASUKA (Kana) VIDEO PACKAGE- well… that was awesome.
And she’s debuting next week, too. None of this Nia Jax a million video packages bullsh*t for Kana.
APOLLO CREWS vs. SOLOMON CROWE- 2.75/10
GARAGNO & CIAMPA PROMO- eh. Ciampa looks a lot smaller and leaner than he used to. And it’s not because he is in the ring with bigger guys. Here, the only other guy in the frame Gargano, who is smaller than Ciampa, and he still looked smaller than he used to.
DEVIN INTERVIEWS DANA BROOKE & EMMA- bad.
Also, Dana really needs to stop using “playtime is over” as a catchphrase.
SASHA BANKS EMERGES FROM HER BOSS-MOBILE-
DUSTY RHODES TAG TEAM CLASSIC UPDATE- Hype Bros. advanced by beating jobbers. Vaudevillans advanced by beating Blake & Murphy.
DUSTY RHODES TAG TEAM CLASSIC QUARTERFINAL MATCH: Baron Corbin & Rhyno vs. Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa- 6.25/10
DEVIN INTERVIEWS THE VAUDEVILLANS- they cut an eh promo. Then Alexa, Blake and Murphy showed up and Alexa cut a promo saying that they were invoking their rematch clause.
NIA JAX- video. It’s been, like, a whole month already. That doesn’t fall into my definition of “soon.”
Bayley’s Biggest Fan vs. Angry Miz Girl for the Divas Title- WrestleMania LII! Book it, Vince!
BAYLEY vs. SARAH DOBSON- 2/10
I guess Sarah Dobson is Crazy Mary’s sane identical twin.
The match was fine for what it was.
SASHA & BAYLEY SEGMENT- AWESOME!
Perfect build for the Iron Woman match.
Also, am I the only one who is really disappointed at Orton didn’t RKO the pop-up in the corner?
