Enzo Amore, Colin Cassady and Carmella promo
Enzo came out and did the introductions for him and Big Cass, before introducing Carmella.
Carmella came out and called herself the “Princess of NXT.” She said that all the Divas in NXT should watch their backs while she is around, “bada bing, hottest chick in the ring.”
Enzo said he had a surprise for Carmella, and Big Cass was really excited. Enzo then introduced independent wrestler Leva Bates, affectionately known as “Blue Pants,” to a huge pop.
Enzo and Big Cass promised that Carmella would take care of Blue Pants easily.
Carmella seemed very comfortable on the mic, she’s making big strides.
Carmella vs. Blue Pants
Carmella hit a couple of shoulder tackles and dropkicks before locking in the leg choke hold.
Carmella defeats Blue Pants via submission.
They are doing a great job easing Carmella into things, and she’s doing a great job of complimenting Enzo and Big Cass.
Finn Balor backstage
Balor said he is ready to make a big impact, and despite Kidd’s recent focus on history, it’s time to prove he’s the future.
Balor was asked about Kidd’s claims from last week, and he confidently suggested that Kidd should make a DVD of tonight’s match and send it to “Uncle Bret.”
Balor obviously is much more comfortable with English than Itami is, and I think that’s translating to overall comfort. Balor just seems to be fitting right in.
