NXT TakeOver New Orleans Results & Review

by JR Goldberg | Apr 8, 2018

If the main event of TakeOver New Orleans isn’t for you, have a long hard think about whether you’re still a fan of the WWE’s concept of modern wrestling. It’s totally cool if you aren’t, but if this didn’t do anything for you, I’m not sure what else from them will.

The WWE Draft Made NXT Stronger…Somehow

by Alex Wendland | Jul 20, 2016

While there’s plenty of things to complain about following the WWE Draft, NXT is not one of those things.

NXT Takeover: The End Makes NXT WWE’s Supershow Indie

by Alex Wendland | Jun 1, 2016

With five months between NXT Takeover London and Dallas, WWE effectively killed off much of its buzz with a lack of meaningful episodes in between. Now, WWE reaps what it sowed.

WWE NXT (May 25): Nia Jax vs. Carmella vs. Alexa Bliss

by Alex Wendland | May 25, 2016

The main story on tonight’s WWE NXT revolves around who will replace the injured Bayley as the No. 1 contender for the NXT Women’s Championship.

WWE NXT (May 11): Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Alex Riley

by Alex Wendland | May 11, 2016

The May 11 WWE NXT is entirely watchable but shows a lot of the traits and pitfalls that have made the weekly NXT shows a disappointment.

WWE NXT (May 4): Samoa Joe vs… Eric Young?

by Alex Wendland | May 4, 2016

Though his match was an ever-so-mild disappointment, tonight’s NXT was a clever little side track in the history of NXT Champion Samoa Joe. His obstacle tonight – a familiar face in the name of Eric Young.

WWE NXT (April 27): NXT Championship Change

by Alex Wendland | Apr 27, 2016

Every NXT w/ Nakamura is worthwhile, but a series of month-old squashes and lackluster coverage of the NXT Title switch from Lowell leaves much to desire.

WWE NXT (4/20): Samoa Joe vs. Apollo Crews

by Alex Wendland | Apr 20, 2016

Tonight we say goodbye to a couple of WWE NXT favorites on their way – well, long since gone to – Monday Night Raw and the WWE main roster.

WWE NXT (April 13): Nakamura vs Dillinger

by Alex Wendland | Apr 13, 2016

Stop me if this sounds familiar: following an incredible Takeover special, WWE NXT begins a run of relatively meaningless NXT episodes filmed weeks in advance. But also, Shinsuke Nakamura…

WWE NXT (April 6): A Dose of Nakamura

by Alex Wendland | Apr 6, 2016

Tonight’s WWE NXT is recap heavy. Just about everything you haven’t seen before involves lots of Cathy Kelley and a green screen. That sucks from a viewing standpoint, and is a super garbage cop out, but I get to dive a little deeper into a lot of the developments from Takeover, so stick with me in this review.

WWE NXT (March 30): Is it Takeover Time Yet?

by Alex Wendland | Mar 30, 2016

Every match on WWE NXT is predictable tonight. The card is set, there’s nothing left to build too, even if Baron Corbin did drop the promo of his career. This is the last chance to put guys over leading into Takeover: Dallas, and most of the attempts worked.

WWE NXT (March 23): Asuka vs. Emma II

by Alex Wendland | Mar 23, 2016

The penultimate episode of WWE NXT sets up the midcard of Takeover: Dallas and revisits one of Takeover: London’s best matches in the main event.

by Alex Wendland | Mar 16, 2016

by Alex Wendland | Feb 24, 2016

More CFE Arena! More holding patterns! Right here, on WWE NXT!

Tonight’s WWE NXT features a handful of entertaining matches, but mostly more of the same. With the promise of a major debut and huge main event next week, NXT promises to be on fire between now and Takeover: Dallas.

WWE NXT (2/17) Review: Samoa Joe vs Sami Zayn

by Alex Wendland | Feb 17, 2016

We’re getting close to the actual build for WWE NXT Takeover: Dallas, but the holding pattern is getting stale. Quickly. Thankfully Asuka and tonight’s main event both help make this an hour worth watching, holding pattern or not. Let’s dive in.

WWE NXT (Feb. 10) Review: Carmella vs. Bayley

by Alex Wendland | Feb 10, 2016

WWE NXT (January 13): NXT Returns!

by Alex Wendland | Jan 13, 2016

It feels like it’s been a month since we had a meaningful, half decent episode of WWE NXT, and that’s because it pretty much has been a month. NXT’s return to regular programming was exciting, if only because we’ve been starved for fresh content from the best program in WWE. Come for short but sweet matches, stay for multiple Commissioner Regal segments setting up the next few months of NXT matches.

WWE NXT (Jan. 6): Best of NXT 2015 and NJPW Raid

by Alex Wendland | Jan 6, 2016

The NXT of 2016 has a chance to be even more exciting than 2015 depending on the result of the rumored New Japan raid, but the state of this week’s NXT? Not nearly as exciting.

WWE NXT (Dec. 30) Review: The Best of 2015 NXT

by Alex Wendland | Dec 30, 2015

NXT’s Year in Review Part One effectively ends with John Cena’s shoulders pinned to the mat. If that isn’t a metaphor for everything we love about this program, I don’t know what is.

WWE NXT (December 23) Review

by Bryan Rose | Dec 26, 2015

For a filler show, this week’s episode of WWE NXT was really good.

NXT Takeover: London Review (December 16): Finn Balor vs Samoa Joe

by Voices of Wrestling Staff | Dec 16, 2015

It’s time! NXT travels outside of the United States, presenting Takeover for the first time ever in England. NXT Takeover: London gets the panel review treatment as the VOW staff looks at the winners, losers, and future of NXT.

WWE NXT (December 2): Samoa Joe vs. Tommaso Ciampa

by Alex Wendland | Dec 2, 2015

A good episode of NXT that was clearly highlighted by Tommaso Ciampa vs. Samoa Joe in the main event. Don’t sleep on the Vaudvillains vs. Jordan and Gable, though, and James Storm’s second WWE-sanctioned match.

WWE NXT (November 18) Review: Bayley vs. Alexa Bliss

by Bryan Rose | Nov 19, 2015

This week’s episode of WWE NXT was an easy show to watch and digest with build to NXT Takeover: London and Bayley solidified herself as champion.

WWE NXT (Nov. 11): Dash and Dawson vs. The Vaudvillains

by Alex Wendland | Nov 11, 2015

WWE NXT has been on fire since Takeover: Brooklyn, and the match quality has been off the charts for a weekly one hour show. Seriously, the only bad thing about NXT has been Byron Saxton’s regression to a six-year-old’s logical capacity. Tonight’s episode was no exception when Dash and Dawson challenged The Vaudvillains for the NXT Tag Team Championship.

WWE NXT (November 4) Review: Apollo Crews vs. Finn Balor

by Alex Wendland | Nov 4, 2015

This was the week for WWE NXT; we hadn’t seen either NXT champion in action since Takeover: Respect and they’ve hardly been on NXT TV for the past month. Tonight, however, Apollo Crews challenged Finn Balor for the NXT Championship in what was an excellent match between two of the most exciting names in NXT.

WWE NXT (October 28) Review: Tyler Breeze vs. Samoa Joe

by Alex Wendland | Oct 28, 2015

WWE NXT went the full hour for the first time in months and had what would’ve been the best match by a mile in any WWE week that didn’t include that bonkers fatal four-way from RAW. Fatal four-way or not, you need to watch which episode of NXT.

NXT TV (October 21) Review: Baron Corbin vs. Rhyno

by Alex Wendland | Oct 21, 2015

Get excited; WWE NXT is buzzing again. Fresh roster, new stories and working relationships. NXT is going on another run. Strap in, this is going to be fun.

WWE NXT (October 14) Review: No. 1 Contendership Battle Royal

by Alex Wendland | Oct 14, 2015

As always, WWE NXT has a lot to live up to following an exceptional Takeover special. These first episodes following Takeovers are often resets and, as a result, lackluster. This time, however, there were literally (maybe) dozens of possible storylines set up for months in the future. Can the debut of Nia Jax and a battle royal to determine the No. 1 contender carry the show?

NXT TakeOver: Respect (October 7) Results & Review

by Voices of Wrestling Staff | Oct 7, 2015

Worried that NXT TakeOver: Respect wouldn’t deliever? Worry no more. NXT TakeOver: Respect knocked it out of the park.

WWE NXT (September 9) Review: Samoa Joe & Finn Balor vs. The Lucha Dragons

by Alex Wendland | Sep 10, 2015

WWE NXT (August 26) Review: The 90-Minute TakeOver: Brooklyn Extravaganza Bonanza

by Alex Wendland | Aug 27, 2015

These were decent-to-above-average NXT matches, but they had no place on the NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn card proper.

NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn (August 22) Review

by Voices of Wrestling Staff | Aug 23, 2015

NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn was everything hardcore and casual NXT fans were looking for: guest spots from legends like Jushin “Thunder” Liger, well-protected characters throughout the card they generally cared about and more than anything, great matches.

NXT (August 19) Review: Take(over) Me Home Tonight

by Alex Wendland | Aug 19, 2015

The final episode of NXT before Takeover: Brooklyn features the official contract signing for Saturday’s NXT Women’s Championship match, plus several strong confrontations for important Takeover matches!

NXT (August 12) Review: Becky Lynch vs Bayley

by Alex Wendland | Aug 12, 2015

NXT finally gained some momentum last week and could use another couple of weeks heading into a sold out Takeover in Brooklyn on August 22. There are going to be 13,000 (!) in the Barclays Center to watch WWE’s “developmental” territory. This is clearly shaping up to be the shining moment of Triple H’s pet project; they need the momentum and they need to deliver.

WWE NXT (August 5) Review: Almost Everyone Has a Name

by Alex Wendland | Aug 5, 2015

Tonight’s NXT was actually one of the best in a long, long time with Charlotte/Bayley as the highlight followed closely by Joe/Rhyno, the BULL-FIT promos, plenty of Commissioner Regal and exactly zero Dana Brooke.

NXT (July 29) Review: Vaudevillains vs Blake and Murphy

by Alex Wendland | Jul 29, 2015

by Rob McCarron | Jun 17, 2015

Ever since May 20, when Samoa Joe made his surprising debut at NXT Takeover, we’ve been wondering just what Kevin Owens vs Samoa Joe in WWE would look like. We got the answer tonight, although only partially. Also, Part 1 of “Who is Finn Balor?” looks at the beginning of Fergal Devitt.

by Rob McCarron | Jun 3, 2015

The big news coming out of tonight’s all new episode of NXT is that WWE is doing something really cool with the WWE Network in July.

by Rob McCarron | Apr 29, 2015

WWE NXT (April 1) Review: Breeze vs Itami, Best of 3 Falls

by Rob McCarron | Apr 1, 2015

The rivalry between Tyler Breeze and Hideo Itami hasn’t been the main focus on NXT lately, and rightfully so. Kevin Owens is mowing through the NXT roster with no lacking of confidence, and Sasha Banks is doing the same on the women’s side of the roster as well. With those two huge personalities taking control of NXT lately, Hideo and Tyler have been fighting to get back on the top of the scene by proving who the better of the two is. The focus of NXT changes for one night, tonight, as the rivalry culminated on WWE NXT with a Best of Three Falls matchup.

WWE NXT (March 18) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Mar 19, 2015

Solid episode. The women’s match was a little disappointing but watching Kevin Owens destroy Alex Riley and a hot opener makes this worth a watch.

NXT Live in Columbus (March 5) Review, Notes, and Photos

by Rob McCarron | Mar 6, 2015

On Thursday night (March 5), I made the last minute decision to travel from my home in Northeast Indiana to the first ever (except for that one in Georgia) NXT Live event outside of Florida. NXT Live in Columbus, Ohio, had been a much anticipated event, with tickets selling out in under one hour for the live show. Over 1,000 people attended the event, with many of them standing for the entire show as there were only about 400 seats at the LC Pavilion in Columbus. To be short with it, the show was quite fun, with some small surprises that made a big impact, as well as featuring an enthused crowd that wanted to love this show.

WWE NXT (March 4) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Mar 5, 2015

An otherwise forgettable episode of NXT saved by a tremendous main event as Sasha Banks continues to prove herself as one of the best talents (regardless of gender) in WWE.

WWE NXT (February 25) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Feb 25, 2015

WWE NXT February 25, 2015 Full Sail University No bullshit tonight, we kick it off quick with the opener Hideo Itami taking on the floundering Bull Dempsey. Tonight is the “The Brian Kendrick” supershow. Seriously, I...

WWE NXT (February 18) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Feb 20, 2015

This wasn’t a blow-away show by any means but it was important in continuing storylines and had some solid to above-average matches with a really good main event. NXT is on a roll and I don’t think it’s going to stop anytime soon.

NXT Takeover: Rival (February 11) Review

by Voices of Wrestling Staff | Feb 11, 2015

Are we spoiled or what?

WWE NXT (February 4) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Feb 5, 2015

Another fantastic episode of NXT who have really put together a masterful 2015 thus far. The build to NXT Takeover: Rival overall hasn’t been as good as prior specials but I’m salivating at finally getting to see Owens/Zayn so everything else is just the cherry on top at this point. Go watch this episode and seriously, start watching NXT regularly if you don’t already.

WWE NXT (January 29) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Jan 30, 2015

Another solid episode of NXT. This was more of a story-building episode but there were a few good matches and as has been a trend of late, nothing bad. NXT continues their run of solid shows as we draw ever close to NXT Takeover.

WWE NXT (January 21) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Jan 21, 2015

This was a great episode of NXT that you should definitely check out. It was a blend of both good matches, storylines and match announcements so it wasn’t only a entertaining show but it was an important one. The momentum of great TV from NXT continues.

WWE NXT (January 14) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Jan 15, 2015

One of the best episodes of NXT I’ve ever seen. From top-to-bottom, a perfectly-paced hour of wrestling. This has the match quality of an NXT special and if you’ve watched those, you know that’s high praise. Go watch this now.

WWE NXT (January 8) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Jan 9, 2015

Decent episode of NXT with no much to write home about but some good segments, builds and a few solid matches. This felt more like a go-home show for next week’s debut on Wednesdays, which is fine, they can’t all be great nights. Zayn had a great segment to start the night off while Itami/Axel had a solid match you should definitely check out. Like most episodes of NXT, nothing was bad and what more can you ask for out of weekly TV?

WWE NXT (December 18) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Dec 20, 2014

This was a really solid episode of NXT with a blend of well worked matches and some early storyline progression. Go out of your way to see the main event, it wasn’t anything special but a good look at the direction of both Neville and Owens.

WWE NXT Takeover: [R] Evolution Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Dec 11, 2014

All we can say is….wow.

WWE NXT (December 4) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Dec 5, 2014

This was a decent go-home show for what’s looking like an unbelievable NXT special next week. The final segment between Neville and Zayn is must-watch if only to see how great Zayn is.

WWE NXT (November 27) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Nov 28, 2014

Meh, this was just an okay episode of NXT. The opening segment/match thing was really bad and I couldn’t wait for it to end but otherwise the rest of the show was watchable. The Kevin Owens vignette should be watched and while the main event wasn’t given enough time to ability to get a great match, it was still very entertaining.

WWE NXT (November 20) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Nov 21, 2014

This is an hour that goes by quick but I’d be lying if I told you it was a good show. The only good match on the show was quickly ended by a distraction finish and the rest was storyline progression or squash matches. The closing segment with Zayn and Neville is definitely worth watching but this was mostly a build show leading to December’s Clash of the NXT Champions.

WWE NXT (November 13) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Nov 14, 2014

If you haven’t watched this episode yet, drop everything you’re doing and go watch it.

WWE NXT (November 6) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Nov 7, 2014

A great episode of NXT. No, there wasn’t any standout matches but everything was really good and built to the future. We have a main event for next week, Prince Devitt debuted as Finn Balor and the ladies’ continued to steal the show. Don’t miss this one.

WWE NXT (October 30) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Oct 30, 2014

A great episode of NXT! Sure, nothing was spectacular but everything was really good and it’s the easiest, most rewarded hour of wrestling you’ll watch this week.

WWE NXT (October 23) Review

by Rich Kraetsch | Oct 23, 2014

This was an okay episode of NXT. The matches all got a bit more time and there were no backstage segments or prolonged promos but it still felt like a hollow show.

WWE NXT (October 16) Review

Must-watch episode of NXT this week. Everything that had the potential to be bad but was kept very short and everything that was good went a prolonged amount of time. Very little filler on this match and even the 30 second (or 10 second) squash matches meant something. Hot crowd, good matches, Sami Zayn’s re-coming out party and meaningful storyline progression — don’t miss this one, folks.
