6 Ups And 5 Downs From WWE NXT 2.0 (Dec 14)

Ups...

6. Cameron Grimes Comes Up Trumps Again

If the decisive result of this show-opening No Holds Barred showdown between bitter sparring partners Cameron Grimes and Duke Hudson was anything to go by, this mixed bag of a feud looks to be finally on the way out.

Now, don't get your writer wrong, there have been a few unexpected high points along the way, with the live poker back and forth in particular being an unanticipated delight a few weeks ago. But aside from that, much of the programme has devolved into typical "you're not worthy to be in the same ring as me" b*ll*cks that hasn't felt fresh in years.

That being said, Grimes and Hudson definitely threw everything and the kitchen sink at what looks like their last battle, with bin kicks, a slingshot German suplex (from Hudson of all people!), and a wicked poker table powerbomb bump filling out an energetic pinball fight.

Sure, seeing Grimes attempt to seal the deal with a roll-up during a No Holds Barred plunder-brawl felt odd, but all that was forgotten by the time he Caved Hudson into next week through a chair and picked up a feud-winning victory. That being said, your very much bald writer couldn't help but feel sympathetic towards a Kurt Angle wig and head gear wearing Aussie getting exposed post-defeat, with the look of dejection as he drank in his new reality being a feeling the rest of the community know all too well.

Justice 4 Hudson, I say!
