NXT 26th August 2015- 3 points to note

A scene from BrooklynThis episode was straight out of Brooklyn. These were the matches that happened during the Takeover event but weren’t aired as part of that card.The matches made it to NXT this week instead of the usual tapings at Full Sail Arena. So not much happened on the show when it comes to the storyline development. We will have to wait until next week to see some storylines kicking in.But it was apt for NXT to air these matches on their usual television slot. It worked well as we’re still sinking in from the brilliance that was the latest Takeover.Here are the three points to note from this week’s show-

#1 The home turf

Home crowd advantage

The kind of ovation Enzo Amore and Big Cass got for their arrival was rabid. This was their home turf.

Imagine if they’d actually won the tag team championship. That would have brought the roof down. This team is the most over team at NXT. They get some of the biggest pops, night after night at Full Sail University.

The fans have learnt all their catchphrases word to word. That is such a difficult thing to do, but they’ve succeeded in making the cardinal rule of wrestling work- controlling the audience. 

Their mere entrance to the arena and the reaction to it by the audience was a thing of beauty.
