NXT: 5 Points to Note (26 July 2017)

An explosive main event capped off a great NXT episode

#3 Too classy for NXT?

The Velveteen Dream is one to watch out for

Both The Velveteen Dream and Cezar Bononi knew that they had limited time in front of the NXT Universe this week. Both of them made full use of the opportunity and put on a show to remember. The finesse of both men, especially The Velveteen Dream, is something to behold!

However, what caught our attention was his post match segment with backstage interviewer Kayla Braxton. When asked a question, The Velveteen Dream refused to answer a question in front of the shabbily attired NXT Universe (guess nobody's going to buy his own merchandise then, considering most of them were dressed in official WWE merchandise). This is one compelling character and we look forward to watching him develop over the years.
