Primarily a recap episode, with a few points to note.
#2 An underwhelming main event

Sadly, this week’s main event did not live up to the hype

For a man who was a former tag team specialist to get so much offence over Drew McIntyre, the man we think will challenge Bobby Roode next for the NXT Championship, was criminal. Wesley Blake is a decent wrestler at best, and while every episode of NXT has had a fantastic main event since the ‘new era' began...this one was quite underwhelming.
McIntyre has a great look, he is a fabulous worker inside the squared circle and could very well be your next NXT champion. Blake has a long way to go before he can even cement his place as a legitimate NXT mid-carder.
