Adam Rose vs. Danny Burch
Rose goofs around and gets the better of Burch. He hits a Bronco Buster and then takes of his elbow pad. He hits an elbow drop off the second turnbuckle and that is all. It's amazing how quickly this got over with the NXT audience.
Match Rating: 1/4*
They show us highlights of Zayn losing by ref stoppage last week and interview the referee of the match. He said that safety is his number one concern. Gripping. They then show an interview with Graves, who calls a win a win.
Bayley vs. Sasha Banks
Have these two wrestled each other like 500 times on TV? After a quick pin attempt from Bayley, Sasha takes control. Bayley makes her comeback and hits a reverse elbow off the second rope. Sasha tries to slow her down, but Bayley hits the Bayley-to-Belly suplex for the victory. As usual, another short women's match here on NXT.
Match Rating: *
Sylvester Lefort vs. Mojo Rawley
It doesn't get any better than this. Mojo shows off his wide range of styles with a splash in the corner, a butt to the face and a splash for a victory. At least it was quick.
Match Rating: 1/4*
After the match, Brodus Clay comes out and hits a powerbomb on Lefort and then a splash off the second rope. After the powerbomb, the NXT crowd chanted "Better than Batista". Yeah, okay. He calls out Adrian Neville and tells him to face him now like a man. They do some trash talking and then Brodus heads to the back. Hopefully forever.
Oliver Grey is about to be interviewed and he's interrupted by Camacho. He complains about Adam Rose, which leads to Oliver Grey challenging him to a match. Make sense?
After a long video package of WWE Access at WrestleMania, they go to Great Khali. Bayley comes up to him and gives him a hug. CJ Parker comes in and hopes that Khali recycles. Bayley translates for Khali and lets CJ know that Khali will see him in the ring next week.
Bo Dallas is out here now and he says that he's going to occupy NXT. The crowd turns their backs on him and he is beside himself. JBL comes out and makes fun of Bo. He tells him that he's not getting a title match tonight, but he gets Justin Gabriel instead.
Bo Dallas vs. Justin Gabriel
This match has been going on for at least four minutes and I just can't find anything worth typing about. Gabriel comes back and hits a top rope crossbody for a 2 count. Bo counters an inverted DDT into one of his own. Bo hits a double underhook DDT for the victory. That was probably close to a 10 minute match and nothing interesting happened. Bummer.
Match Rating: 3/4*
To put it nicely, this episode was simply just not good. Bo Dallas, Brodus Clay, Mojo Rawley. Not exactly a stellar group of pro wrestlers. 2014 NXT is pretty much all over the place and this week the spinner landed on garbage.
Overall Rating: 38%
