Percy Watson/Axl Keegan/Scott Dawson vs. Shield
Dawson gets hit with the TripleBomb post match.
Bellas vs. Funkadactyls
We look at Wrestlemania week.
Regal is ready for Ohno.
Kassius Ohno vs. William Regal
A belly to back suplex puts Regal on his head again for two more and Kassius is getting frustrated. William is getting all fired up and gets to his feet, only to have his head kicked off for two. Ohno loads up the rolling elbow but Regal nails him in the ribs to set up the Knee Trembler for the pin at 14:06 shown of 17:36.
Overall Rating: B. Another solid show here as NXT does what it does best: make any feud feel like the biggest thing going on in the promotion at the time. Regal vs. Ohno was a well built feud with a classic story and the resulting match worked out very well. What more can you really ask for than that? Good show here and more compelling TV with a match set up for next week.
Results
Shield b. Axl Keegan/Scott Dawson/Percy Watson – Standing Sliced Bread to Keegan
The Bellas b. The Funkadactyls – Rolling mat slam to Naomi
William Regal b. Kassius Ohno – Knee Trembler
