(www.PlaytimeCares.com) - WWE NXT is exclusively shown on the WWE Network and is worth your time, energy and effort to see it. You can see that the WWE will be around for a long time because of the talent pool that is constantly showcased here.

NXT gave you 2 matches this week because the Pay Per View (PPV) - NXT Takeover Brooklyn II, is live Saturday night.  This episode was average in regards to the shows that NXT provides weekly.  This was expected with a PPV so close to the air date.

 Here are the highlights of the show:
