Bully Ray praises the latest WWE NXT main event.
This week’s edition of WWE NXT ended in controversy as Lola Vice tapped out Kendal Grey at the same time that Grey scored a three-count pinfall on her, thus leaving referees and the competitors to argue in the ring as the broadcast went off the air. Before the chaos ensued, though, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray believes Vice and Grey delivered a stellar performance in the ring, so much so that they might have eclipsed WWE’s main roster.
“Kendal and Lola had one hell of a professional wrestling match,” Ray said on Busted Open After Dark. “That was one of the best women’s matches I’ve seen so far this year, if not the best. Far superior to anything that I’ve seen on the main roster. Far superior to anything I’ve seen in AEW, in TNA, in Ring of Honor, anywhere.
“My God, did those ladies bring it. Amazing athleticism, great mat wrestling transitions, smooth, fluid, good false finishes, quality main event. Kendal Grey, the future of the WWE women’s division. Lola Vice stepped up to the plate tonight. Lola’s got an amazing background, but Kendal with that amateur wrestling ability, I think Lola had to step up, and she did. They had me hooked.” (H/T WrestleTalk)
Grey and Vice’s main event fight came with the added stipulation that the winner would earn the right to challenge NXT Women’s Champion Jacy Jayne at NXT Stand & Deliver this weekend. Due to the nondefinitive finish, it is unclear if one, both, or neither of them will fill that spot now.
