[6.0] "It was a good episode of NXT, although obviously the absence of the audience made it more "sappy" to watch. I found it hard to stop yawning, and that played a bit on the final score, but didn't impact it in any crazy way. We also got to see the television debut of Dexter Lumis, and that's cool. Rating of the show : 5.75/10"

[5.0] "I love NXT, but these last few weeks I couldn't stand to watch without fans. I wanted to give this week's episode a shot, because I hadn't watched since Gargano and Ciampa tore down the PC on 3/11. I wanted to get my feet wet too on watching a wrestling show without a crowd before I tuned in for WrestleMania. Everyone on this card tried hard. Kushida vs. Wilde was solid and had an interesting twist with Wilde being abducted as Mendoza was on 3/11. Blackheart was fun to watch as the underdog who came up short against the devious Kai and Gonzalez. I will say the only character who made the most of the empty crowd was Dexter Lumis. We really got to see how creepy and eerie he was and he was able to succeed in this spot. Overall, the situation just is what it is, but wrestling will not be the same until crowds can come back. I shudder to think about some of the big WrestleMania moments going down with only the commentators to hype it up. No roar from the crowd, no huge pop for the stars. It's a difficult situation, but NXT tried this go-around, can't blame them for that."

[7.0] "The Kushida/Wilde was only 5 minutes long ? o_o It felt much longer, it had a great feeling of completion. I'm impressed. I really enjoyed that match, so much creativity."

[6.0] "Overall this show was okay. Shotzi despite losing, did really well in that gauntlet match, and the 3-way was fun. Heel Sam Roberts must go."

[6.0] "I didn't give a flying fuck about Lumis/Atlas, but other than that the other matches were at least enjoyable. The main event was good, and I also liked very much the gauntlet match, they managed to put over Shotzi Blackheart but also to give the victory to the right person. Obviously, as usual, the absence of the crowd is tough, but I also found this episode way better than the last week's."
