NXT Recap & Reactions: Farewell’s Never Been This Tough

Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams Go Their Separate Ways in Surprising Fashion

This week’s episode of NXT brought a shocking turn of events as Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams, the dynamic duo known as MSK, decided to go their separate ways. However, unlike most wrestling breakups, there was no animosity or betrayal involved. Instead, the two friends sat down and had a heartfelt conversation about their future.

Trick expressed his desire to step out of Carmelo’s shadow and establish himself as more than just a sidekick. Despite Carmelo seeing Trick as his best friend and equal, he understood Trick’s need for independence. This decision gives Trick the opportunity to start his own story and gain more solo exposure, while also freeing up Carmelo for future endeavors.

Their separation didn’t come without consequences, as Trick found himself in a simmering feud with Ilja Dragunov. The upcoming match between Trick and Ilja promises to be a thrilling encounter, showcasing Trick’s abilities as a solo competitor.

Child’s Play

Another standout moment from this week’s NXT was Lyra Valkyria’s dominant performance against Jacy Jayne. After an impressive showing against Rhea Ripley last week, Lyra continued to assert her dominance in the ring. Jacy Jayne played her part well, making Lyra look like an unstoppable force. The decision to showcase Lyra’s superiority over her opponents was a smart move, solidifying her as a formidable competitor in the women’s division.

Victory Lap

Valentina Feroz and Yulisa Leon carried their momentum from The Great American Bash into this week’s NXT. Although they didn’t come out victorious, their performance in the ring was solid and crisp. Elektra Lopez and Lola Vice provided tough competition, but Valentina and Yulisa showcased their skills and left a lasting impression. The highlight of the match was Lola Vice’s impressive kick that secured the win for her team.

Give It Up Fast

The match between Baron Corbin and Andre Chase was not only entertaining in terms of in-ring action but also had a compelling storyline. Thea Hail’s resentment towards Andre for throwing in the towel during her match added an extra layer of tension. The match took an intriguing turn when Thea contemplated throwing in the towel for Andre but ultimately didn’t. This decision led to Andre’s loss and potential fallout between him and Thea. The storyline between these three wrestlers is definitely worth keeping an eye on.

Been Around the World

The ongoing storyline involving the Creed Bros. and Dyad took an unexpected turn this week. Instead of admitting their attack on Dyad, the Creed Bros. continued to deceive Schism, prolonging the inevitable confrontation. This segment felt anticlimactic and silly, dragging out the story unnecessarily. Hopefully, this storyline will reach its resolution soon so that we can move on to more engaging narratives.
