NXT 4th November 2015 - 5 points to note
Asuka: Colourful and viciousThis was no Takeover, but this edition of NXT had a championship match for the main event that had everyone chanting 'This Is Awesome' before they even rang the bell.New storylines kicked off and some were continued taking one step at a time. The main event scene looks quite set and the female performers in NXT still have more interesting stuff to deal with than anything else WWE has come up with in the main roster. It is also important to note that Asuka and Finn Balor, despite their limiations on the mic, have some tremendous screen presence. Here are the 5 points to note from this weeks show-
#1 \"Asuka\'s Gonna Kill You\"
It’s quite amazing how over Asuka has become in NXT since her first match was just about a month back. She kicked off the show with her badass theme music and her marvellous presence.
Despite her limitations on the mic and her command over the English language – her wrestling skills and her chilling expressions have made her quite an attraction. This week she faced Cameron who made her NXT debut in her pursuit to become a better wrestler.
Her entrance was met with an immediate chorus of boos. Much of it turned to amusement soon as the audience realized she’s an easy prey for the Japanese star and they aptly began chanting ‘Asuka’s gonna kill you’ as soon as the match began.
Much to Cameron’s credit, her magnified expressions were the perfect foil for Asuka’s viciousness.
And man, oh man, Asuka turning that slap into an armbar an awesome moment. Also, Asuka made, what the commentators called the ‘hip attack’ seem like a legit dangerous move. Cameron did get some offence in, most of it were variations of using a full split, but it was Asuka’s colourful yet vicious presence that you mostly took away from this match.
She’s certainly the best addition to the women’s division in NXT this year.
