7 Ups And 3 Downs For Last Night's NXT (May 6)

4. Kushida Is Really Good

Here we are ladies and gentlemen, it's time once again for the best thing in NXT. The Interim Cruiserweight Championship tournament that is giving some of the company's most talented yet perennially underutilized performers a brilliant and substantial platform on which to craft technically engaging, proficient matc... oh it's finished already is it? Awkward.

The reason this match gets an up and Tozawa/Gallagher got a down is because, like I said, you can have these things run short and have them make sense. Yes, they should be given more time as the whole point is that all these guys haven't had enough of the spotlight, but at 100mph with an Outtanowhere™ finish they take your breath away. No rest holds, you'll notice.

If anything, Atlas came out of this week looking better in defeat that Tozawa did in victory. That's the difference the right match can make to the results. The former looked like he got beat by a genius, the latter looked he just managed to overcome a dope.

Please though, 10 minutes minimum for these matches next week. They deserve it.

- Honor the Cruiserweight Champions of the past? Like TJP and Enzo?
