WWE NXT Battleground 2023 (Wrestling Review)

Really solid opening match. Lee is a solid champ and can put on good matches. Thank god they didn’t have Gacy take a belt. Bates here was sort of just here, would love to see him get a solid solo run though. 

3.5 / 5

Not huge on these style of matches. This had its moments but the pausing in between kills the pacing. When this worked though it was enjoyable. 

2.75 / 5

Dijak rules first off. This was a super physical match where they just spent the entire team beating each other down and it worked perfectly. 

3.5 / 5

A fun match with some good spots. Julius is clearly the star of both teams here and a future singles run is likely. 

3 / 5

This was a solid match but easy to see who would win. Stratton has been built up more and more and it was clear as day she was taking it. 

3 / 5

A solid main event but nothing that really wowed me. Hayes needs a good challenge now and Breakker is a monster but clearly wasn’t taking the belt back. If anything his NXT time is limited as I figure a main roster call up is coming soon. 

3 / 5
