Our Reading
The game followed a familiar script.
Hendry came in as the fan favorite, but faced three hungry challengers. Saints and Page tried to weaken him early on, but their rift grew as the match went on.
D’Angelo spent the early minutes on the outside, regaining his composure before focusing on Hendry. The teamwork between Saints and Page lasted only moments before Hendry hopped over the ropes and took them out.
In the end, D’Angelo stepped back into the ring, power-up multiple German suplexes, and broke up a Standing Ovation to hit Hendry with a spear.
This one felt recognizable early, with a slow start, a late push, and a thrilling finish.
Original Observation: The NXT Championship is often won by those who can capitalize on chaos and momentum shifts.
