Aiden English continues to shine a spotlight, as do we on the life and career of Bull Dempsey. Plus, the fastest Tag Team Termoil match in WWE history.

After weeks of anticipation, we finally see the start of Sasha Bank's iconic heel run. But will the future multi-time world champions in Sasha and Paige main event over Xavier Woods and Leo Kruger? "Will they heck." - WWE, 2013

This episode also features a more-focused Bo Dallas character, and one of the strangest referee DQ finishes in the history of televised wrestling. And if that's not enough, William Regal is back in the booth.

After a hot episode last week, we simmer things down with Conor O'Brian vs Adrian Neville in our main event. Summer begins to convince Sasha to turn heel. Alexander Rusev makes a statement. And we finally put the Bo Dallas character confusion to rest, with a great white suit.

It's time to talk about one of the greatest matches in the history of NXT, after three months of feuding Sami Zayn and Antonio Cesaro battle in their iconic 2 out of 3 falls match. AJ Lee and Dolph Ziggler make their main-roster way down to NXT. And Alexander Rusev and CJ Parker both make their singles (character) debuts.

The main roster invasion angle (non-canon) continues, as Double M makes his triuphant return to NXT, where he's managed by Paul Heyman as Curtis Axel, a man. Paige defends her championship against Summer Rae. The Shield take on Team NXT in our main event. This taping continues to dissapoint, but we manage to get a lot out of the News Desk, with some dubious conspiratorial alien chat.

The Divas (why are they not women yet WWE?) join the men in the doldrums of NXT history, with NXT's first ever #1 contendership dance battle. Bo Dallas continues to confuse, with the return of his inconsistant booking. We learn that Ambrose vs Neville is not the same as Mox vs Pax. But at least Tyler Breeze faces Danny Burch, in Pretty vs Britty.

After a solid run of great NXT episodes, we return to the doldrums of NXT as TWO dance-based storylines kick into gear. Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks face off for the first time ever. Corey Graves and Adrian Neville have zero chemistry as tag-champs. And CJ Parker taunts Tyler Breeze, in the highlight of what we're dubbing "NXT: It Could Be Worse"

After months of matches and build, Paige and Emma, two of the most over wrestlers in NXT, are robbed of their main event matchup to crown the first ever NXT Women's Champion. For some reason, Luke Harper and Sheamus are in the main event. Tyler Breeze catwalks his way to his iconic NXT debut, and The Ascension 3.0 (4.0?) are competing together at last.
