Bayley comes to the ring to start NXT, followed with separate entrances for Emma and Paige (WWE Divas Champion), to face The BFF's (Sasha Banks, Summer Rae & Charlotte (NXT Women's Champion)) for a 6 Diva Tag Team match. Charlotte gets distracted by Summer Rae lying in the ring and kicks her out, allowing Bayley to roll up Charlotte for the win. Summer Rae argues with her teammates after the match, saying "I made you two" and showing general dissention.
We see a clip "earlier this week" of NXT General Manager JBL signing a new masked superstar to a contract. Who could it be?
CJ Parker is shown in the crowd with a protest sign again, with "100% Organic" and "I speak for the trees" on it.
"Big Cass" Colin Cassady pinned Sylvester Lefort (with Marcus Louis) after the East River Crossing.
Backstage, Natalya is talking to Tyson Kidd while he warms up for his match. She is going to be at ringside to support him.
Sami Zayn pinned Mr. NXT after hitting the Helluva Kick. Zayn removed Mr. NXT's mask during the match, revealing Bo Dallas. Afterwards, Zayn goes backstage to get security to remove Bo. Bo runs around ringside until he is caught and carried away. We then see him taken away in a large golf cart.
The main event is a NXT Championship Rematch between Adrian Neville and Tyson Kidd, with Natalya at ringside this time. Kidd got a three count during the match, but Neville's foot was on the ropes, causing the ref to wave off the three count. Kidd then applied the Sharpshooter, but Neville crawled to the ropes to escape. Kidd then brings a chair into the ring, but Natalya stops him. Kidd gets hit with a kick while arguing with Natalya, and Neville hits the Red Arrow and gets the victory. Natalya comes in the ring afterwards to console Kidd. Natalya looked "very concerned" during the entire match.
Honestly, I find the Bo Dallas thing quite funny. He gets a spot on the main roster, but still persists to be on NXT. I guess that he BO-lieves that he belongs on NXT
OK, Bo was just absolutely golden. From doing all of his trademark poses and taunts, to shouting in the middle of the match, "I'M NOT BO DALLAS!!", it was all great. The kids couldn't stop laughing at "He touched my bum!" as he was being dragged away.
Also missing from the report was the first sighting of Simon Gotch, who approached Aiden English backstage. After looking him up on Youtube (under Ryan Drago), I am very much looking forward to where this is going.

Welcome to the board!
I haven't seen this particular episode yet, but yes, Bo Dallas is cracking me up, too.
Somebody suggested in another thread that they should give Bo a submission finisher during which he implores his opponent NOT to give up. That would be absolutely hilarious.

Well, you guys beat me to a Raw one, so I figure I should do this instead. SmackDown Mid-Term Report Akio: C -- Could be using him far better than fodder for others. Billy Gunn: D -- Still on my TV, sadly. I guess I could deal with him being jobbed out....
