WWE NXT

Right off the bat, while I dislike the new NXT logo, I love that Poppy got the theme. NXT often makes huge swings and misses with their TakeOver song choices by relying on out-of-touch musicians but Poppy is their best bet in recent years.
Kyle O’Reilly kicked things off. He was in a good mood after TakeOver and discussed what his future potentially held in regards to winning championships. He went to call out Karrion Kross but was interrupted by Cameron Grimes. I love Grimes. He wanted them to work together as Grimes could invest in him and they could go TO THE MOON. Of course, Kyle eventually leveled Grimes and set the tone for a match tonight. Kyle’s gimmick is goofy but he’s a weird dude and it works for him. Fine enough as an opening segment.
