⭐️Kayhan: Funky how these 3 were brought together with a common enemy... and funky how we didn't know which 3 were gonna be in the match from Dark State. they got a little bit of a 4-on-3 advantage before the match started... Well, I seen Lennox before, but I really liked Shugars work. Very unique. great selling... Cutler as well... Im actually impressed. I guess management thought very highly of all these guys to put them in such a high profile angle... Despite the fact that Femi & Williams abandoned their teammate, it's still an impressive victory for these guys on paper. Im not down on these guys anymore after seeing this. I like them. I guess it's up to the booking to see how good this can be...

⭐️Kayhan: Im not really understanding why Roxanne is still down here in NXT, after the Royal Rumble and everything. ??? Maybe they can't fit her in anywhere yet... as for this, so much talent leftover without matches. shows how deep this roster is. as long as they come up with something meaningful for all these women, i guess i’ll be ok…

⭐️Kayhan: Love this! Meet us in the parking lot! so good. that’s my typa rasslin… as far as the storyline, it seems like Stacks is going rogue without Tony D’Angelo here? also it’s 4 on 3, and even more of a disadvantage considering one of the Family’s 3 is Luca Crusifino. so i don’t really know what Stacks has under his sleeve here.
