#2 Best: Grayson Waller gets an insurance policy on NXT

NXT kicked off with LA Knight calling Grayson Waller out, before being hit with a restraining order from him. This led to the former Million Dollar Champion setting up the return of Dexter Lumis, who appeared from under the ring to scare the Australian.

Lumis and Waller faced each other in a solid match but it did not have a clean finish, as would be a recurring theme throughout the night. Saurav from Indus Sher appeared from out of nowhere and attacked Dexter Lumis, allowing Grayson Waller to win with the Rolling Cutter.

It looks like the two of them are now aligned. This is an interesting development, furthering Waller as a hated figure. It is also funny that Veer Mahaan's old tag team partner has resurfaced on NXT before he could on RAW.


#2 Worst: Duke Hudson ruins Dante Chen's big return

Ad

As WWE's first Singaporean wrestler, Dante Chen has done himself proud. He looked to further his stock on his return from a knee injury. There even was an elaborate video package detailing his emotions regarding the same and his father passing away.

This looked to set up a strong win for Chen against Guru Raaj before he goes on to bigger and better things, but it wasn't to be. Duke Hudson made his own return and viciously assaulted him.

This could have been achieved after Dante Chen got the win, especially with his impressive performance during the match.
