Overall Thoughts Of Show :
This show just ended a few moments ago, I have been a wrestling fan since 1996 but in 22 years of watching Pro Wrestling this was the best put together wrestling show i have ever seen. This show had everything you could want in modern wrestling, The opening match had all the high spots you could want and just plain brutality and in my mind the best ladder match since the TLC days ( i know making the comparison the day after the Dudley Boyz go in the Hall Of fame) Leading into the Women's match which was much shorter but told a different story and kept the crowd hot which was not an easy task. Shayna Baszler when she came into NXT no one really respected but she has blossomed into a really good talent and her going over was the right call as i feel we will see Ember Moon moving up to Raw. The NXT Tag Team Title match was really good, Dragged in the opening but near the end it really pulled off some great action.. The ending was unpredictable that no one saw coming with Roderick Strong turning heel and joined Undisputed Era which was the smart move because it breathes new live in Roderick Strong. Black Vs Almas was everything i wanted it to be, Hard hitting, False finishes and told a great story of Zelina Vega helping one too many times as her mistake gave Black the opening to become NXT Champion. Now the main event, Wow just wow both of these men deserve a pay raise, The crowd was so against Ciampa and so into Gargano. The storytelling, the brutality, the facial expressions were near perfect. The ending sequence was amazing where you thought Gargano was too weak to put out Ciampa and tricked Ciampa and that made me mark out so loud. NXT you have done this wrestling fan proud and i will remember this event in 25 years.
Show Grade: A+
