Afterwards, we go to Tony Dawson, alongside William Regal. They talk about all the action we've seen in recent weeks in the new tag division. Also, how two Superstars will make history to become the first ever NXT Tag Team Champions. The final match in the tournament will be tonight's main event, as British Ambition takes on The Wyatt Family. But first, Divas action.


--COMMERCIAL BREAK--

We come back to see Alex Riley in Dusty Rhodes' office. He talks about how Graves attacked him a few weeks back after his match. He demanded a match against him so he can seek retribution. Dusty agreed with him and made it official for later on in the night. As Alex left the room, Sasha Banks entered. Dusty said she's just the person he was wanting to see. He said he's gotten word from her valentine that they want her to meet him in the ring later on tonight. They both smiled and Banks left, as the cameras went back to the ring.


Graves vs Riley is up next. Dawson and Regal hype it up as it is coming up right after the break.

--COMMERCIAL BREAK--

A-Ry's music hit and he got a big pop. But he only made it about halfway down the ramp before Graves attacked him from behind. He threw kicks, punches, and proceeded to throw him into the steel steps before finally rolling him inside.


Graves wouldn't release the hold and once again, multiple referees had to break it up. Corey was escorted to the back as he stared Alex down with a wild look in his eye. The other refs eventually helped Riley to the back as he could hardly walk on his own.

--COMMERCIAL BREAK--

Sasha Banks is now in the ring with a microphone. She announced that she knows her valentine wants to meet her tonight, and she wants them to come out now. She stood in the ring anticipating their arrival. Finally...

Dusty Rhodes' music hits and the crowd erupts. Sasha stands in shock as the crowd chants for Dusty. After a few moments, Rhodes begins to speak. He told Sasha that she's a beautiful young lady, but he's not her secret admirer. He's just out here to introduce the man that had been sending her the cards lately. And here he is!



Fandango heads down to the ring, dancing along the way. He offers Sasha a rose, then she smiles and accepts it. They dance in the ring, and the camera goes to the announce table. Regal and Dawson talk about what just happened, and Regal jokingly mentions wanting to see if the guy can wrestle as good as he dances. Up next, we crown the first ever NXT Tag Team Champions!

--COMMERCIAL BREAK--


Rowan and Harper throw a fit outside the ring, as British Ambition celebrates their win. They eventually leave to go search for Bray. The cameras go backstage where Wyatt and Dallas are now brawling in the locker room. WWE Officials finally come in and try to split them up. Dusty Rhodes starts yelling for them to stop. After both men are held back, Dusty tells them if they wanna get their hands on each other, they can do it next week...in an Anything Goes, Falls Count Anywhere Match! Both men stare each other down, as Dawson reminds everyone to tune in next week for that match, and watch Big E Langston put his NXT Championship on the line against Conor O'Brian.

WWE NXT: Wednesday 13th February 2013...Alright, I'm an avid viewer with NXT, so this I can get my teeth into. I think the layout could use some serious word, it looks incredibly unneat and unprofessional for the main part. Another thing though, I hate Verdana, haha. Summer Rae with a win against Paige is fine, a decent showcase for Rae in her new character after evolving from being a ring announcers. I liked the cheap finish, as it kept Paige somewhat strong at the same time. Alex Riley with some talk time alongside Dusty Rhodes? A tad strange, but nonetheless, it did the job in setting up our upcoming match between Riley and Corey Graves, although it seems clear that Graves will be picking up the win. Sasha Banks seems to have an obsessive gimmick about her, this should be quite interesting as to where it leads. Mason Ryan with a win against enhancement talent, Aiden English is cool. I'd like to see you make Ryan work this time around. Corey Graves with the win was cool, although the pre-match attack on Riley isn't something new, honestly. We've seen it with Kassius Ohno and Trent Barreta recently. I like that Graves put Riley out of action with the 13th Step though, very good way to put over the submission hold. Hah, Fandango makes his debut...return? It'll be interesting where this relationship pairing goes, to say the least. And finally, a solid tag team main event to determine the first ever NXT Tag Team Champions, with Olivery Grey and Adrian Neville managing to overcome the much larger Luke Harper and Rowan in the Wyatt Family. Is British Ambition seriously Neville and Grey's team name or did you come up with that? It sounds incredibly cheesy. I didn't like the ending though, it didn't give the NXT Tag Team Championships much prestige in the long run, it immediately leading into a rematch next week. It fit the Wyatt Family characters, though. I'm a little concerned with how next week's show will be booked though, because you have both NXT Championships on the line, in a show that is to last forty minutes. Overall, a fair start but very basic and followed the formula of real life goings on, and hopefully you're able to go on your own way from next week onwards. Just tidy up the layout, this is a firm show to start off of.

I love you for doing this. NXT is my favorite show at the moment, and I really want to see you where you take this. Off the bat, I would say add a bit of color to the layout. All black can be a bit boring. Solid opening bout with Summer Rae getting the cheap win over Paige. Interested in seeing how far you stretch this feud as I think it would really benefit from a long build with the audience waiting to see Summer get her comeuppance. The Sasha Banks Secret Admirer storyline seemed so random in reality, but I want to see what you have planned for it. Simple squash victory for Mason Ryan. Aiden English could be good in a personality role, me thinks. Great victory for Corey Graves here. Really helps establish the 13th Step as a deadly maneuver. Oh, it's Fandango! Wow, wasn't expecting that. I do think it's a bit odd that after having vignettes air on the main roster shows, he makes his re-debut on NXT. I did enjoy this segment, though. Lastly, great main event with British Ambition overcoming the much larger Wyatt Family to become the inaugural NXT Tag Team Champions. A great moment for Neville, Grey, and the audience, but it seem flattened by having another closing segment backstage. Wyatt vs. Dallas in a Falls Count Anywhere match does sound intriguing. Just maybe could have come earlier in the show as the image of Neville and Grey as the championship seemed like a much more proper closing point. Overall, a great starter show. Really can't wait for more of this.
