NXT 25th March 2015- 5 promising developments

This week’s show focussed mainly on the immensely anticipated main event that was Finn Balor Vs Kevin Owens. So much was expected off this match and the reason for it was simple and obvious. Two great performers with a legit wrestling background were set to face each other. There were happenings in the tag team scene and of course, the divas division. This week came out with another set of good to great stories. There was much to talk about and some very memorable, defining points to noteHere are the five promising developments from this weeks show, which was probably the last show before Wrestlemania-

#1 Kevin Owens is pure badass

There is nothing better to have a wrestler with a legit background of independent wrestling, with a hardcore fan following, be booed for being a heel. This was storyline perfection.Kevin Owens has developed into the best heel in NXT and quite possibly the entire WWE. He’s arrogant, yes, he chides away that spell-binding Balor’s paint ordained self as a demon. As if he’s a cartoonish demon. But he’s one passionate individual, striving to survive for his family and himself. His deeds are painful to watch, unforgivable and all of that has culminated in making him a great character and that too in such a short time.

He wrestled a great main event and his in-ring psychology was top-notch. Touches like not giving the referee the title belt or trash talking to Balor saying,” Where’s the demon now, huh?” stay with you.  He’s a heel who like his chant, fights. And when in those rare occasions he does run, it makes a meaningful point about his opponent. With that simple deed he can put over his opponent as one major threat. That is no small feat.
