its pretty good but going a little long
Mickie's second shine went a bit long and then the match just ended.

Still a fine match.

Please tell me this is the start of a Mickie comeback and Asuka feud.

It's pretty decent, I dunno why you guys are down on it. Other than your innate fear of women but hey,

The match itself was fine, seeing Asuka work through adversity was nice, but I personally just don't care for seeing Mickie James return to the WWE and go after the "minor league" championship. I realize her spot was probably decided due to the main roster being pretty full, but still. James was last seen fightin for the ol' butterfly belt, she feels out of place stompin around NXT.

Oh Asuka, you delightful bitch.

I look forward to the rematch of this, please sign her Uncle Hunter.

Asuka being beyond alignment is rad but I think it sometimes leaves crowds confused about whether to cheer or boo.

They could do a fuller feud with this if Mickie sticks around and have her be the first one to beat Asuka. I'd buy that.

Unless they really can get Trish back.

Mickie did very well, good match. It was doomed from the start because of the previous match, but i was surprised with how well she did.

credit to the crowd, they were still hot. i would have been exhausted from the tag match but they were pretty active throughout

The only one that can take down Asuka is clearly Kelly Kelly and her dreaded roll-up

I take it as a savvy veteran recognizing that the NXT belt means way more than either the Raw women's belt and a savvy veteran knowing she can't compare to Alexa Bliss.

Asuka's been tweening, now she's a full-fledged rear end in a top hat. We can only hope some sort of ninja werewolf girl can save us from her evil reign.

Unless Joe/Nakamura is like really great, I think there'll be suggestions that the tag match should have been the main event.

Eh, that wasn't a heel move, it was a Stone Cold Antihero move. She smiled and danced right after she did it and the crowd popped. You can be a face without doing every single White Meat thing on the checklist.
