As much as I want to see the rocket strapped to Paxley\u2019s back, Yim has such a storied past in NXT that I can forgive her being given the rub. Paxley has come such a long way and her grasp on her new character makes me hope she gets to move upward and forward soon in the division.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HIT: Ridge Holland vs. Riley Osborne<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m still not sold on Holland\u2019s &#8220;sad Dad&#8221; character, but this match exceeded my expectations and held my interest throughout. I\u2019m hoping for a decent payoff to the slog of Ridge\u2019s woes sooner than later though.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HIT: Luke Gallows &amp; Karl Anderson vs. Malik Blade &amp; Edris Enofe<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Another &#8220;when will the saga end&#8221; storyline with Enofe and Blade losing constantly, but overall it was a decent match and I like Gallows &amp; Anderson getting a push on NXT. As much as I like Axiom and Nathan Frazier, I wouldn\u2019t mind a small run with Gallows and Anderson holding the belts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HIT: Dante Chen<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My man, you\u2019ve earned every bit of screen time you\u2019re getting.

Good golly gosh darn was I giddy!

I\u2019m not sure how long this push will last, but I\u2019m definitely along for the ride.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HIT: Je\u2019Von Evans &amp; Trick Williams vs. Joe &amp; Mark Coffey<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As much as I don\u2019t like to see the Coffey Brothers take a loss, I know this was more for the Ethan Page debut. I\u2019m not terribly familiar with Page\u2019s work, but after doing some research, he comes with high marks from what I\u2019ve read, so I\u2019m excited by any new roster member.<\/p>\n<p>Did I mention JORDYNNE FREAKIN\u2019 GRACE???
