NXT 390 on the WWE Network:

Verdict: 4 matches and, yet again, still just a decent show.  This episode was graced by showcasing new Women talent in route to finding out who the number 1 contender would be for the Women's Championship. 

Episode tidbits: 

Heavy Machinery called out the Authors of Pain for a tag team championship match, but #DIY says that the line for the championship title matches starts behind them.

NXT continued their insightful expose on the NXT star Roderick Strong.  It is aptly named, Who is Roderick Strong?" Part 2 was shown this week.

The #1 contenders match for the Women's Championship ended up yielding 3 challengers for the title.

Match 1: Killian Dain defeats Danny Burch (Match Grade: C)

The monster of SANitY makes quick work of his slimmer opponent.

Match 2: Heavy Machinery smashes Hector Kunsman & Ricardo Watts (Match Grade: C+)

Heavy Machinery sent a visual reminder of what happens when you have a huge weight difference going against each other.

Match 3: Hideo Itami puts Kona Reeves asleep (Match Grade: C)

Reeves started off aggressive and strong but ended the match thoroughly punched and kicked!

Match 4: Over The Top Battle Royale ends in no contest due to Asuka interference (Match Grade: B)

This 15 women battle royal showcased the current popular women talent, as well as the lesser known talent that is in the locker room.  The match picks up when the field of 15 goes down to 8, but the match really picks up steam with the final 3 opponents are end ring.  Asuka interfering pushed a slow starting match, that turned good, to a really intriguing match.
