NXT: 5 Points to Note (September 06, 2017)

#4 Babyface uses heel tactic

This did not feel like a No DQ match until the end

When you hear of a No Disqualification match between Kassius Ohno and Hideo Itami, you expect everything AND the kitchen sink. Unfortunately, this wasn't an all out brawl as one would have expected but still built to an interesting conclusion.

Yes, a steel chair reared its ugly head during the match, but the carnage wasn't a fraction of the destruction we witnessed between Asuka and Nikki Cross, during their Last Woman Standing contest. This was a hard fought match, but the most interesting thing to note in this match was how Kassius Ohno used a low blow to win the contest. Yes, Ohno and not his heelish opponent, Hideo Itami!

Despite the fact that it is Itami who has been showing a darker and seemingly eviler side to him, it was Ohno who really capitalized on the No DQ stipulation, in this regard. Kudos to him for selling his elbow to the very end. Even when he was celebrating with the crowd in attendance.
