    Damn. I forgot that ROH has an event on the same night as NXT.

    I had some doubts about the pairings of some of these matches but they've all really delivered. It's surreal to see NXT sold out in a 20k+ arena with a red hot crowd

    A good (happy) crowd makes all the difference in wrestling. NXT events are always fun.

    The womens matches on NXT specials continue to be stupidly good. I can't for the life of me figure out why they can't replicate it on the WWE PPV's.

    All the talent is there now, but I'm sure they will continue to f**k it up.

    Two names. Vincent Kennedy McMahon and Kevin Dunn. Moreso Dunn, since Vince is pretty much dependent on what his underlings tell him about what's working.

    I think after SummerSlam once they end the multi-team tags it will improve these matches don't allow them to focus on the psychology elements that make it as special and emotional as it is time and time again in NXT, they are just relegated to hitting there spots quickly and it just doesn't come across the same way. They need a good 20-30 minute match on RAW every month for a #1 contender match and the same thing on a PPV once the title is focused on Sasha, Charlotte, Becky & Paige.

    Bayley and Sasha completely stole the show and the curtain call afterwards made me tear up and smile big for about 10 mins

    Call me old school, and they are having great matches.

    But a curtain call is a bit much.

    Disagree. Favorite part of a fantastic show. Three of my top 10 matches so far this year feature those 4 women. I can't believe that would ever be the case

    Bayley and Banks stole the show for sure. I'm okay with the curtain call. My only complaint about the NXT women, more specifically when they are on RAW...have no heat. During matches, Banks really shines and added to the match.

    As usual WWE could have executed it better, make Banks more resistant.

    Yeah it was good, but there wasn't a lot of juice left in the building. The women should have gone on last, that was a hard act to follow.
