The partially elevated ring and outer apron were an unique look and one I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve seen before. When NXT goes to smaller venues, I wish they\u2019d use this same setup. Now, on to the show\u2026<\/p>\n<h3>Josh Briggs vs. Yoshiki Inamura: Massive Hit<\/h3>\n<p>Damn! This was a hard-hitting, big man street fight that exceeded my expectations. Briggs and Inamura brought everything and deserve accolades for the match. Several sick spots, including the superplex onto the railing on the chairs The rare (unexpected) blood was perfect in a match like this one. Both men are going to feel the effects of this match for a few days. Just awesome and nice to see Briggs pick up a win.<\/p>\n<h3>Ricky Saints vs. Jasper Troy: Minor Hit<\/h3>\n<p>An okay match. Troy wasn\u2019t asked to do too much outside of some big man moves, which is good this early in his career. My only gripe about Jasper Troy is his win\/loss record. He\u2019s supposed to be a monster, but that element of his character disappears in the ring with loss after loss. He\u2019s got a great look but won\u2019t be taken seriously until he shows up more in the win column.<\/p>\n<p><em>ARTICLE CONTINUED BELOW&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Check out the latest episode of &#8220;PWT Talks NXT&#8221; with Kelly Wells and Nate Lindberg, part of the PWTorch Dailycast line-up: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/episode\/pwt-talks-nxt-wells-lindberg-discuss-je-von-evans-vs-trick-williams-fatal-attraction-vs-the-elegance-brand-the-peace-treaty-more--67450184\">CLICK HERE<\/a> to stream (or search \u201cpwtorch\u201d on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or any other iOS or Android app to subscribe free)<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"PWT Talks NXT - Wells &amp; Lindberg discuss Je'Von Evans vs. Trick Williams, Fatal Attraction vs. The Elegance Brand, the &quot;peace treaty,&quot; more\" src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/player?episode_id=67450184&amp;theme=light&amp;playlist=false&amp;playlist-continuous=false&amp;chapters-image=true&amp;episode_image_position=right&amp;hide-logo=false&amp;hide-likes=false&amp;hide-comments=false&amp;hide-sharing=false&amp;hide-download=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"200px\" frameborder=\"0\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>The Elegance Brand vs. Fatal Influence: Hit<\/h3>\n<p>All women worked hard in the match, my only gripe is that both groups are heels, so there really wasn\u2019t anyone to root for (unless just for the particular brand of your liking). I expected more friction between the Fatal Influence members as we\u2019ve seen over the past few weeks, but they worked as a unified front.<\/p>\n<h3>The Canadian \/ American Peace Summit: Hit<\/h3>\n<p>A bit boring and drawn out at times, but it gets a Hit based on the fact that I love the chemistry between Ethan Page and Chelsea Green. They are awesome together. I\u2019d love to see Page go the Main Roster with Chelsea and The Secret Hervice.<\/p>\n<h3>Je\u2019von Evans vs. Trick Williams: Hit<\/h3>\n<p>These guys work well together with their conflicting styles. An Evans \/ Oba Femi should be a blast. I envision Evans being tossed like a rag doll a lot during that match. Could the scrappy underdog overtake the giant and win the NXT title? I\u2019m more excited about a Evans \/ Femi fight than I would have been seen another one on one with Trick and Oba.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"PWT Talks NXT - PWTorch NXT Post Show w\/Wells &amp; Lindberg\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YpXAwocaoTM?start=2&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-2260486540\"><div id=\"pwtor-1889123424\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>First off, I love the venue setup in Philly.
