Even with no Finn Balor, Hideo Itami and Sami Zayn, NXT was solid, thanks to an awesome card that had plenty of depth and an awesome main event.
Check out this week’s NXT Power Rankings to see who starred in another damn good episode of NXT.
Honorable Mention: Becky Lynch: Not on the winning side of many matches so far in her NXT career, Lynch’s submission win over Bayley this past week was the biggest of her WWE life thus far. With plenty of potential and a budding partnership with Sasha Banks, Becky is one young Diva to keep an eye on.
5: Bull Dempsey: The old-school bruiser continues to dominate every one in his path. With his showdown with Baron Corbin all but set, he’ll be tested like never before.
4: Baron Corbin: Just like Dempsey, Corbin has been on a hot streak, but has a better look and an amazing finisher. More over with the crowd, Corbin looks to be the guy to end up on the better side of their feud.
3: The Ascension: All but set for their WWE debut, Viktor and Konnor took down a damn good tag team in Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady this past week on NXT. Although they’re still a bit rough around the edges, Viktor and Konnor, the longest-reigning tag champions in NXT history, will be a breath of fresh air in the WWE tag team division.
2: Adrian Neville: It looks like his NXT career isn’t over just yet. Avenging Kevin Owens’ betrayal of NXT Champion Sami Zayn at R-Evolution, Neville called out Owens and apparently has one more feud left in him. Don’t be fooled here. putting over Owens will do wonders for Neville as well, as it’ll be his highest profile feud of his NXT career and one that is sure to stir up talk on the internet.
1: Kevin Owens: He’s pissed and ready to earn a top spot in NXT. How many people get a shot at Adrian Neville after just one match? No one. Well, except Owens. The reason? He’s special. If you don’t know who he is, just wait. You’ll see.
