Trent Barreta vs. Johnny Curtis
All right, I always liked both of these guys, especially Trent. We get a solid little back and forth sequence to start it off, until Curtis starts working on the recovered tricep of Barreta. Barreta was out for 6 months with the injury. Curtis sets up Trent for the superplex, but Trent covers and hits a sunset flip powerbomb and gets a 2 count. He didn't hit that quite as crisply as he probably hoped for. Step up enzuigiri by Barreta and then a leaping elbow into the corner. Barreta climbs to the top rope and hits Curtis with a moonsault. Barreta's tricep is hurting and his hesitation allows Curtis to his a suplex into the turnbuckles. Curtis is now up top, but misses with the leg drop. Running knee by Barreta and he gets the victory. Barreta looked a little off, but this was still a decent little match.
Match Rating: **1/4 (Out of 5)
Alicia Fox vs. Paige
Paige goes for a bunch of pinfalls at the beginning, but none of them score the victory. Tilt-a-whirl backbreaker by Fox, which may be the best move I have seen her pull off. Northern Lights suplex by Fox into a bridge for a 2 count. Fox is looking as crisp as I can remember. Paige fights back and hits the RamPaige for the victory.
Match Rating: 3/4*
Jimmy Uso vs. Conor O'Brian
Lots of headlocks by O'Brian. Uso gets up top, but Kenneth Cameron pulls him down. Conor hits a dropkick and gets the victory. This feud seems to be going nowhere. After the match The Ascension attack Jey Uso.
Match Rating: 1/2*
Bo Dallas is backstage about to do an interview, but Michael McGillicutty interrupts. Dallas attacks him and they have to be pulled apart.
NXT Sparring Session
Kassius Ohno vs. Oliver Grey
This was so quick, that I didn't even get much of a chance to gather enough words to form a sentence. Ohno wins by submission. Ohno says that it was easier than expected, so he is giving him another chance. He hits the spinning elbow and then gets him to submit a second time. This causes Richie Steamboat to come out and Ohno heads to the back. This was just an angle.
Match Rating: 1/4*
We get a Leo Kruger vignette of him trying to be creepy.
Rick Viktor vs. Seth Rollins
This is a non-title match. I actually did not know that Victor trained with the Harts. Rollins goes for a suicide dive, but Victor hits a forearm before he can leap. Suplex by Victor and a 2 count. Victor is biting himself and the commentary team just can't get enough of it. Rollins fights out of chinlock, but eventually gets knocked out by a knee to the face. Victor goes for an elbow to the corner, but Rollins gets his knees up. After a slap, Rollins just destroys Victor. Rollins is now setting up an elbow and then a dropkick. Blackout and that's all for Victor. Victor got some moves in, but that was just a short showcase for Rollins.
Match Rating: *
Well, they continue to be in kind of a rut still. I liked the opener enough and the main event did an okay job of making Rollins look good. However, there just wasn't enough to this episode to make me really want to like it.
Overall Rating: 31%
