If last year's In Your House TakeOver show taught us one thing, it's that Triple H and the gang will stop at nothing to pump as much feel-good nostalgia into this unashamed throwback as humanly possible in order to keep their key demographic happy. Who needs 18-49's anyway, am I right?

Sure enough, the latest edition of NXT saw the return of Doc Hendrix (a Michael Hayes clearly happy to join in on the fun) and his Slam Jams. Setting the stage for this Sunday's event, Hendrix reeled off the already announced bouts, all while channeling the sort of energy and all-round feeling of a wrasslin' show from the early '90s.

If you're a New Generation mark, you probably popped your t*ts off here. If not, well at least they didn't overstay their welcome.
