BRM Reviews the 4/3/2019 NXT

[Big Red Machine]

WAR RAIDERS vs. TWO JOBBERS- no rating, awesome squash
After the match, they said Regal has allowed them to send a message their opponents by calling out another team, so we got…

WAR RAIDERS vs. ADRIAN JAOUDE & CEZAR BONONI- squishity squash #2

VARIOUS VIDEO PACKAGES- great

VANESSA BOURNE & ALIYAH MAUKE FUN OF CANDICE LERAE OUTSIDE OF THE PERFORMACE CENTER- good
Candice’s road to a title shot begins. Also STOKELY HATHAWAY WALKED BY!

JAXSON RYKER (w/the Forgotten Sons) vs. ONEY LORCAN (w/Danny Burch)- 5/10
They did a good job of making Gunner look like a beast without hurting Lorcan by beating him too quickly.

MORE TAKEOVER HYPE VIDEO PACKAGES- great

KEITH LEE PROMO- awesome… but I’m a little worried that this “chosen one” business is going to wind up in a needless anti-authority angle. But the stuff about Dijak has me excited. They’re having a match in two weeks.
Speaking of matches taking place in future weeks, Aichner & Barthel vs. Street Profits and Candice LeRae vs. Aliyah have both been signed for next week.

KAIRI SANE vs. BIANCA BELAIR- 7/10
Bianca Belair has the best music in NXT right now. This is not up for debate. I’m stating a fact.
These two had a great match that ended in a frustrating but predictable Horsewomen run-in. Io Shirai ran out to make the save, and soon afterwards we had all of the referees and the whole women’s roster running out to get between them, which didn’t really work the way I assume General Manager Regal wanted it to and things got schmozzy. Io got the last big move off and posed with the belt at the end.


A great go-home show from NXT.
