"I don't leave show comments often, but I have to mention that WWE is playing crazy with this Lexis King character. He turned face by losing a match convincingly, then it built to him eventually winning this cup. This episode featured the longest Lexis King segment in front of the crowd so far. He had the mic for almost 10 minutes and he cut a really strong face promo that they disguised as a heel promo because they want him to work Fandango for a week. The crowd hated him talking for so long and he was truly unphased by it. King is making some good progress in NXT. It's a paintbrush and not a spray, by the way."

[6.0] "Good show here, pretty enjoyable, opening match was pretty good along with the segment afterwards being pretty fun as well. we're just gonna move past the ridge match. The women's tag match was good even for the time it got to be honest. The women's segment was pretty cool to watch too. The final two matches were fun to watch as well. Overall, pretty solid show."

[2.0] "How the F this episode can have a rating above average ? Two of the most stupid things I've seen IN YEARS happenned on this show : number one there was a match where someone's friend interfered in the match and broke the pin right in front of the referee but there was no DQ because "she hit her friend and not her friend's opponent" which is absolute bullshit, and number two someone won a match but the decision was reversed because of a post match beatdowns which is once again absolute bullshit because there are postmatch beatdown every week and the decision is never reversed.... So I should rate the show 0/10 for those two things only it was some real WcW 2000 type stuff but I'm a nice guy so I'll give it a 2"

[9.0] "This is probably my favorite episode of the year so far for NXT. Every match delivered consistently, leading up to an outstanding main event. It was great to finally see Zaria in action, and with her seemingly set to team up with Sol Ruca, their partnership should bring an intriguing dynamic moving forward."

[5.0] "A program with typical matches and disastrous ending.The ending of the first match was very strange and hurt the efforts of Stephanie Vaquer and Jacy Jane.In the main event, I expected Oba Femi to be pinned by A-Town, but they decided to end the match with interference.Ridge Holland is still one of the worst parts of NXT.Despite all these problems, we had two good promos (especially the women's promo)."

[4.0] "Solid event had a great diversity of matches I enjoyed most of the show but I skipped some that's why I watch replays"

[7.0] "A decent episode of NXT. NXT Women's Title Summit was a great segment especially when Charlotte Flair made an appearance. JDC (FKA Fandango) appearing to confront Heritage Cup Champion Lexis King was shocking. Stephanie Vaquer vs Jacy Jayne: A solid match to open NXT, Jayne gave a better performance than I was expecting, Vaquer getting the win was obvious mainly to build momentum heading to Vengeance Day to challenge Fallon Henley for the Women's NA Title, they had some chemistry and it showed with a solid set of exchanges [***1/4]. Ridge Holland vs Channing Lorenzo: A short match that was obviously gonna be won by Holland, it was like a squash match [*1/4]. Sol Ruca & Zaria vs Gigi Dolin & Tatum Paxley: An okay tag team match, would have been better if it had been given more time, Zaria and Ruca getting the win was good to see [**]. Karmen Petrovic vs Kelani Jordan: This match was highlighted by the character switch of Kelani, Karmen is showing improvements, Jaida Parker getting involved and influencing the result was played well especially where the change in Kelani is concerned [***]. Austin Theory & Grayson Waller vs Oba Femi & Trick Williams: A great main event match featuring three of the wrestlers in the NXT Championship match at Vengeance Day, with Trick Williams teaming with Femi, Femi and Williams' tension was the main focus on this one, Eddy Thorpe being factored into the result was intriguing [***1/2]"

[6.0] "After a solid on-road episode, NXT came back to its roots of building a strong foundation for its rivalries. That was the case here with fewer chances to step out and perform and more segments to create tension. Fandango's appearance threw me off guard as a cool surprise, while Charlotte somehow killed the momentum that was built in the summit (despite Cora saving it back). Otherwise, it was a cool episode that had a nice balance of good in-ring action and a great build to Vengeance Day."

[7.0] "A solid NXT episode. Some fun women's matches, Inamura about to finally debut and some fresh matchups that I'm looking forward to. The only stinker was Ridge's match, but I'm eager to see how does the cage match go. Again, I'm disappointed in the amount of main roster members on NXT, but it wasn't as overwhelming as in last week's episode."

[7.0] "A very well-balanced episode of NXT. There was a few matches that were solid and then the rest were below average. I enjoyed the summit segment with Giulia, Bayley, and Roxanne Perez as it added more layers to the upcoming match. Charlotte appeared during the segment, also we saw Cora Jade attack everyone in the ring during the segment showing her frustration. But all and all this episode was okay nothing bad but not great just balanced out."

"Very easy to watch stupid and funny NXT episode as usual that really flew by. Every single match had a build of some sort. It felt like a match heavy episode by NXT standards. Fandango returning was a huge surprise to me. It was nice to see Trick and Oba tag. The D'Angelo family story is actually very imteresting and nuanced by NXT standards. I'm not quite sure what will happen next. 8/10."

"[7.0] Very consistent show, but it many areas it could have been even better. Good to see Fandango back thanks to the partnership between WWE and TNA."

[6.0] "This episode of NXT was really solid, with good progression and the arrival of a former talent thanks to the TNA partnership. We can see where they're heading with the champions, which is interesting--especially when it comes to Tony D. There's a real possibility that he could drop his title soon to move up to the world title scene."
