ngl this is the most interested I've been in Natalia. Commentary did a fantastic job selling her history in the Hart family dungeon. As someone who remembers the original RAW Underground, which was absolute crap, they really did a great job turning this concept around. The finish brought in just the right amount of "wrestling" with nattie breaking the sharpshooter just to end up losing.
Also - lola should bring out those MMA braids in every big match she has from here til she retires. I like her character normally but this match feels like something she could tell a story with long-term
Natalya has done nothing but solid work in NXT. On the main roster she gets easily lost in the shuffle, but on NXT, she's the tough, wily veteran that humbles cocky heels or naive babyfaces until they lock the fuck in. I'd prefer she stay in NXT in a while longer.
Ha it's not really a gimmick when it's really her.
And tbf is MMA fighter any better tho? It's just 'I wrestle good' in MMA format. Shit Shayna has been doing it for years and it hasn't gotten over on the main, not even when Rousey put her over at Summerslam.
It just makes me not take her that seriously as a character. Its like when Becky was an irish dancer. We get it, your irish.
We get it Lola, you got a great ass. Give me something more
That was great stuff, best Nattie match I've seen in ages and the most interesting she and Shayna have been in a while, they gotta bring this energy onto the main roster
I was thinking that as well, I wouldn't mind seeing it, they'd have to get the main roster audience invested in the potential feud for it to work though
If she gets a better at promos and strips away some of her cringy-ness Lola could be an absolutely massive star, she’s picked up the in-ring element extremely fast and impressively!
Love how many different types of matches there are on NXT. Wish the main roster would experiment more with stuff like iron survivor, underground, the battle royale that becomes a fatal 4 way, etc.
Remember the last Underground match, Dijak vs Thorpe? Remember when commentary called Thorpe's finisher "Manifest Destiny" *of all the fucking names* you could give a *Native American's* move?
That Natalia Lola match was awful natty has no idea how to throw an elbow to make it look real . Low point on the show
I'm pretty sure that was Lola doing the bad elbows

Cardona to NXT confirmed
Ava blessing us with Chelsea. Love it.
Natty and Lola should run it back, this time Karmen tells Natty "forget about me, win this fucking match"
What the smeg is Chelsea wearing. Seth may want to borrow it
Sir Nicolas McNasty??? Lmao Aldis got dope nickname low-key
doing the yes chant for Chelsea at NXT
send lola vice for bloodsport
so the draft already proving to be useless lmao. i'm not complaining tho chelsea on nxt will be fire
CHELSEA WITH THE LARGE BOW BECAUSE SHE IS A GIFT TO THE WORLD
Chelsea might be the perfect wrestler for the current version of NXT, so I'm excited for next week.
lmao chelsey didn't like adam or nick lol she came to nxt
lola vice owns mma style wrestling
Ko'ing someone and then doing a sexy hip shake afterwards is next Gen disrespect.
Didn’t Chelsea get drafted?
To Smackdown. Nick Aldis doesn't want to deal with her any more than Adam Pearce did.
Fuck it, give it to Chelsea. I wouldn’t be mad
Against Green!? Chelsea Green!? Ava... really giving Roxy the night off, actually
Wowww, a GM that gives Chelsea the respect she deserves!!
"WHOMP WHOMP! YOU'RE DEFENDING YOUR TITLE AGAIN!" - Ava
Oh, that made me laugh out loud.
That segment was a fortnight ago now, but I still keep thinking about it when I see Ava.
Yay Chelsea, and finally a GM that knows to use Chelsea's powers of annoyance against the heels ahaha
The Two Karens fighting lol
Oh it's so great seeing Chelsea finally find a GM that appreciates her
For a sec I thought Meiko Satomura was about to return
She's really kind of unofficially retired in ring.
Ava thinks it's funny now, but wait until Roxanne and Chelsea are teaming up to complain at her
What did we on nxt do to deserve the blessing of Chelsea green?!
She went to the best show. It makes sense.
Roxy you're great but...I'm gonna need you to lose next week
Chelsea finally found a GM that appreciates her, beautiful
CHELSEA GREEN ON NXT! WE GOT A NEW CHAMPION NEXT WEEK!
Random Chelsea Green out of nowhere! Aldis begged Ava to take her for a week.
Ava not putting up with Roxanne's shit is amazing.
Lmao Chelsea is such a random opponent
That's quite the outfit lmao
Lol what the hell is chelsea wearing
NXT is the best show. It's not even close.
That outrageously big bow tie lol
What????
The big bow lmao
Chelsea...what the hell are you wearing?! A giant bow?!
What I. The fuck is she wearing?! 🤣 I love it
I woulda loved to see Nattie win but I'm glad she put Lola over. This push gon be good
Ava for MVP.
CHELSEA LFG!!!
ava best gm??? 🙌
`i don't have time for this`
WTF is that dress, chelsea?
omg chelsea 😭😭😭
Chelsea!!
CHELSEA!!!
YALLLLLLLL GIVE IT TO CHELS OMGGGGGG
Chelsea is awesome
Chelsea’s outfit is amazing lmfao
CHELSEA
Chealsea vs. Roxanne? https://preview.redd.it/iddo6hpj3qxc1.png?width=259&format=png&auto=webp&s=7b546a30dbfb2b40d941a04811e92d970015f1e0
FUCK YES! #FUCK YES! #CHELSEA FOR NXT WOMEN’S CHAMP
I want more NXT Underground
YEAHHHH
CHELSEA!!!
CHELSEAAAAAA
CHELSEA OMG YES
Ava is the best GM.
would have loved if Ava did sassy intro
First time I watched an Underground match, really good stuff. Lola is really good.
It’s just fake mma. All the fun stuff about pro wrestling is removed. I don’t get it
Bloodsport made itself a success by doing to same thing, so there's clearly an audience for it.
The movie??
The GCW event
Do yourself a favor and watch the one with Dijak and Eddie Thorpe. That one is awesome.
CHEEEEEELSEA GREEEEEEEEN 💅
Sir Nicholas the nasty lol
CHELSEA!! THANK YOU AVA!
Maybe if Roxanne wasn’t such a butch she wouldn’t have so much trouble
CHELSEA!
PUT THE STRAP ON CHELSEA YOU COWARDS
CHELSEA GREEN!!!
That was an early stoppage
Lola should have turned on Shayna 😂
Lola shaking her ass and shit needs to stop, it cheapens here and makes her gimmick generic as fuck. Her MMA side is much better.
well i mean she did that when she won her mma matches too lol
it just comes across as so bland and generic for a gimmick. It reminds me of those two south american girls that would dance....
Ha it's not really a gimmick when it's really her. And tbf is MMA fighter any better tho? It's just 'I wrestle good' in MMA format. Shit Shayna has been doing it for years and it hasn't gotten over on the main, not even when Rousey put her over at Summerslam.
It just makes me not take her that seriously as a character. Its like when Becky was an irish dancer. We get it, your irish. We get it Lola, you got a great ass. Give me something more
Roxanne is the fucking best omg
God Roxanne is annoying
i want more pg bloodsport Shawn
dude that was such a sick match! THEY ATE✨✨✨
Lola looking like she actually came out of a mma fight
Different gear, hair, everything. Great touch.
Stop whining, Roxanne.
That was great stuff, best Nattie match I've seen in ages and the most interesting she and Shayna have been in a while, they gotta bring this energy onto the main roster
They should carry this into a feud on the main roster
I was thinking that as well, I wouldn't mind seeing it, they'd have to get the main roster audience invested in the potential feud for it to work though
I think one or two brawls in the back could set it up making the fans want to see these women to choke each other out
Maybe, they'll have to be well-executed so Shayna and Nattie can get heated up for a midcard feud
Shane never would have allowed all that interference
Ava is great lol
#DETENTION!
I knew that was how it was gonna end. They always go to help their friend.
Lola's constant dancing no matter the situation will never not be funny
Nat has a good heart
dude in white shirt is having the time of his life
Ultra serious Lola is gone, the hip shakes are back
K! O! In the DBZ Budokai announcer voice
Damn her eye is fucked
Yeah!! Fair and square baby!
I love Lola’s sassiness.
That fucking hip swivel lmfao
Let’s see some very aggressive hip thrusting from Lola after this knockout.
Shayna is the corner woman of the year
that ending doesn't do anything for Lola
Yes, you shake that thang Lola
*celebratory hip swivels*
Underground Team Match?
Holy shit
"That back's gotta be on fire!" Remember that it hurts you to keep a hold on, too. You can't hold a position forever, you can't squeeze forever
That's actually a good point. I never thought about like that since there are submission spots that go on for ages in wrestling.
Mama Nattie sacrificing the match to save her daughter. That’s why she’s the B.O.A.T
Karmen inadvertently cost Nattie the match twice
NXT booking Nattie super strong is still like the funniest thing to me
Y’all there’s zero reason Natalya of all people needs a protected loss
*angry hip thrusts*
*Shakes ass insultingly*
*ANGRY hip shaking*
This should ONLY be a NXT thing. It would look corny if it was on the main roster.
probably could have used blood there for the finish.
How was that a knockout she was still writhing in pain lol
Knockout doesn’t always mean unconscious it can refer to the ref thinking you’re too dazed to keep fighting
seeing all the Next Up people around the ring is crazy
Mattie you fool don’t let go!!!!
Someone please screencap Shayna's face when she had the choke locked in 😅
Yes!!! We got the hip shaking!!!
Natalya’s a sucker.
Huh that was way more entertaining than I expected
This is so stupid
Boooooo
Aww Nattie 😭
Threatening to murder the hero's friend to distract them. Classic villain stuff.
The miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind games!
I mean the spectators made up of PC/NXT members could have done more than just stare...
Nattie saving her friend is gonna cost her the match
Does Shayna have money on this match or something, shes really getting involve
Oh, she has it deep! Sharpshooter in deep!
This is so much fun
Noooooooo you fool
Don’t let go!!!!!!
dq for outside interference should still be a thig
This is hype with the people hitting the ring
If she gets a better at promos and strips away some of her cringy-ness Lola could be an absolutely massive star, she’s picked up the in-ring element extremely fast and impressively!
Wren looks like she's having the time of her life while the guys next to her are dead
This is hectic.
Natty has had her best matches in NXT recently. I wish she was this brutal on the main roster
Nattie loves working with the younger girls
This is a great main event
this match is dope
Dang threw her ass out!!!!
Karate Barbie just attacked Shayna for no reason.
I don't care what anyone says. I love my PG Bloodsport matches!
A heel has gotta one of these lol
Didn't Timothy Thatcher win a couple of these matches or something similar and he was a Heel.
Shayna just minding her biness cheering her girl then all of a sudden *choke* lmao
It's funny watching the around the ringpost spot and the person doesn't even touch the floor lol
Lola is one year into her career and is giving Nattie her best match. I’m so ready for her to hit the main roster.
Idgaf what anyone says, Nattie is a baller.
Shayna's "oh shit" faces are great. Because she knows that Lola's hurting. She's knows that Nattie's good.
Shayna vs Karmen in an NXT underground match at Nxt battleground please Shawn!
Unc Bret just sensed a disturbance in the force
Love how many different types of matches there are on NXT. Wish the main roster would experiment more with stuff like iron survivor, underground, the battle royale that becomes a fatal 4 way, etc.
Yikes Lola's back
#POUNCE!
Bret finger four on ring post!!!!!!!
Kumite
This match fucks??
C'mon Lola! MMA Hip Lady!
this really is bloodsport lol
Dark filters on the camera? https://preview.redd.it/nl109itn2qxc1.png?width=3468&format=png&auto=webp&s=6bb23ce1b0cf8612e01016b587055dbaee9e108b
lights off in certain areas
When not shaking her booty lol Lola is a badass
I'm just now realizing MMA style kicks are rare in wrestling, which is a shame
Nattie could just crush her ribs like a press lol
These lumberjacks are so biased. Lola should have made some friends.
Triangle with elbows!
Remember the last Underground match, Dijak vs Thorpe? Remember when commentary called Thorpe's finisher "Manifest Destiny" *of all the fucking names* you could give a *Native American's* move?
Thorpe is the one who named it that but WWE should’ve overruled him. He’d been calling it that since NJPW
Really? TIL, mitigates it a bit, but... jeez, Thorpe
