WWE NXT North American Title Match
Carmelo Hayes (w/Trick Williams) (c) vs. Giovanni Vinci

Both heels but they are made it work because of this being a fast paced match. Really fun spot filled that never slowed down so the crowd stayed super into it. 

4 / 5 

Singles Match
Cora Jade vs. Roxanne Perez

Just an okay match here. Told a good story with Cora being the only one able to use the weapon. Both women here are just so young and show so much potential. 

2.5 / 5

Legado del Fantasma’s Freedom Vs. Santos Escobar’s NXT Career Street Fight
Santos Escobar (w/Cruz Del Toro, Elektra Lopez & Joaquin Wilde) vs. Tony D’Angelo (w/Channing Lorenzo)

This feud has been going for awhile and I was not a fan of this match. It felt sluggish and slow an All Or Nothing Street Fight it was tame and lackluster. There were some story elements here but this match didn’t do much for me. 

1.5 / 5

WWE NXT Women’s Title Match
Mandy Rose (w/Gigi Dolin & Jacy Jayne) (c) vs. Zoey Stark

A solid match here with some close falls and Rose filling the hell spot well. Working over the leg worked well as a story and Rose using the brace to get the win makes her look crafty and Stark look like a huge threat that needed cheating to be taken down. 

3 / 5

WWE NXT Title Match
Bron Breakker (c) vs. JD McDonagh

A slow and mediocre at best match. Bron didn’t sell his body being worked much. It picked up more at the end but this wasn’t a great championship match and didn’t show off Bron great as a champ. 

2 / 5
