Nygma Says
As I was saying in the introduction, some things were definitely in the works. Joe Hendry’s Fatal 4-Way defence was predictable. Johnny Gargano’s coming back to NXT was definitely not. Tatum Paxley and Blake Monroe’s segment was enjoyable. A match for the NXT Women’s North American Championship becomes inevitable.
The episode was pretty good, with a lot of build-up for the upcoming events. Then, we can ask ourselves plenty of questions about what’s next. Will there be some call-ups after Mania? If so, who? We’ll know more about it once RoadBlock and Stand and Deliver happen, but that’s a lot of question marks that could turn into exclamation points.
NXT RoadBlock will take place in the Theatre at Madison Square Garden in NYC next week. The road to NXT Stand and Deliver is huge. Well, this new era of NXT is as exciting as it can be surprising. I’ll see you next week as I keep on exploring the NXT world through the NXTNA “cold war.” Till then, may the Nygma be with you.
This kid has a REBEL HEART! 🏆
