I like Mendoza. Hopefully we&#8217;ll see more of him which will mean more fast-paced matches with great, agile sequences.

Strong then comes in and has to be held back from attacking Roode.<\/p>\n<p>William Regal tells Strong he needs to be a professional about his grievances with Roode. Strong asks what he can do to get at Roode, but Regal says the McIntyre\/Roode match is already set for Takeover.

This was a great debut for O&#8217;Reilly, and it was easily one of Black&#8217;s better matches in NXT. These two were very evenly matched throughout, and there were some nice sequences of moves, holds, and strikes. I liked the exchange in the finish. I&#8217;d like to see this match again sometime when O&#8217;Reilly has a little momentum in NXT.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nI liked this show. Other than the women&#8217;s match (which did alright to build up Deville but still felt like a throwaway segment), this episode had a lot of good packed into it. I think the NXT title picture is interesting with Strong apparently not finished even though Roode seems to be moving on to McIntyre, the women&#8217;s title feud is still shaping up nicely, and O&#8217;Reilly&#8217;s debut helped get me a little interested in Aleister Black.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Aleister Black vs Kyle O&#8217;Reilly<\/strong><br \/>\nAs stated above, a great debut for O&#8217;Reilly and a memorable NXT main event.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Johnny Gargano returns to in-ring action against Raul Mendoza and Kyle O&#8217;Reilly tests Aleister Black in a good episode of NXT.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3183,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[255,297,622],"tags":[1040,1162,936,556,1067,854,1660,549,999,1478,671,925,1713,775,1149,719,737,871,1654,638,567,852,1130,908,1039,801,1263,1653,1133,76,1477,7],"class_list":["post-3182","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nxt","category-show-results","category-wwe","tag-akam","tag-aleister-black","tag-angelo-dawkins","tag-asuka","tag-authors-of-pain","tag-bobby-roode","tag-da-brewer","tag-eddie-orengo","tag-ember-moon","tag-florida","tag-full-sail-university","tag-hideo-itami","tag-jenna-van-bemel","tag-johnny-gargano","tag-kayla-braxton","tag-kyle-oreilly","tag-mauro-ranallo","tag-mike-rome","tag-montez-ford","tag-nigel-mcguinness","tag-nxt","tag-paul-ellering","tag-percy-watson","tag-raul-mendoza","tag-rezar","tag-roderick-strong","tag-sonya-deville","tag-street-profits","tag-tom-castor","tag-william-regal","tag-winter-park-fl","tag-wwe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3182","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3182"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3182\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3184,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3182\/revisions\/3184"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3183"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3182"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3182"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
