The October 14 edition of WWE NXT emanated from the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, FL. The NXT Showdown<\/a><\/span> fallout show was also a TNA Bound For Glory<\/a><\/span> one, as NXT was involved in a few TNA Championship matches. But NXT is now on the road to Halloween Havoc<\/a><\/span>, on October 25, so we can expect some PLE matches to emerge from the episode.<\/p>\n

Four matches were advertised<\/a><\/span> for this week\u2019s NXT episode, including the return of Matt Cardona to WWE and an interbrand Battle Royal<\/a><\/span> to determine the new #1 contender for the NXT Women’s Championship (I have to say the episode was taped last week, as Jacy Jayne got injured<\/span><\/a> a few days ago, and Xia Brookside was not at TNA Bound For Glory due to illness). Because TNA is involved, let\u2019s Nygma dive into what happened last night.<\/p>\n

Ricky Saints Has Something to Say<\/h2>\n

Saints said, when his back is against the wall, he’ll fight for himself and the fans, while Trick Williams folds under pressure when things get tough. Williams abandoned “NXT” when it got too hard for him. Saints said he won’t be waiting for a new Number One Contender to emerge and challenged Williams<\/a><\/span> to an NXT Championship match at Halloween Havoc.<\/p>\n

Williams appeared on screen<\/span><\/a> and said his” size 15 shoes” are too big for Saints to fill. While Saints waited his whole life to get where he is now, he’s a VIP and didn’t have to work for it. Saints says he should’ve expected Williams not to come to the ring to face him like a man, then added he’ll show Williams why he’s “Absolute<\/a><\/span>“.<\/p>\n

Matt Cardona is back, but fails<\/h2>\n

Five years after his last WWE match, Cardona came to NXT to face The Man of Mayhem. The towering Josh Briggs was all over Cardona, even mocking<\/a> <\/span>the former WWE Superstar with his signature chant, but Cardona fired back<\/a><\/span> with a counter and a huge dive over the top rope. Cardona even hit Radio Silence after Briggs\u2019 chain was confiscated, but The Man of Mayhem rallied and managed to hit a massive match-ending Big Boot.<\/p>\n
