Welcome to this week’s review of Nxt, right here on Nerdly. Let’s get straight into it and see what went down in this episode…
Match #1: Fallon Henley def. Thea Hail The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Fallon Henley punched her ticket to Nxt Battleground by defeating her former friend Thea Hail, thanks to an unintentional assist from Chase U ally Ridge Holland. Hail had the upper hand and a frustrated Henley slid out of the ring and grabbed a chair, only to be thwarted by Holland. The Nxt official was unaware that it was Henley that introduced the weapon, and promptly ejected Holland as well as all of Chase U. Hail managed to rally without her teammates, but Henley managed to knock her around the ring before hitting a Shining Wizard to punctuate her win. After the match, Jacy Jayne’s friend Jazmyn Nyx attacked the helpless Hail.

Match #1: Sol Ruca def. Izzi Dame The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
The first entrant into the Nxt Women’s North American Title Ladder Match at Nxt Battleground was determined when Sol Ruca and Izzi Dame went toe-to-toe for the honor. Ruca looked to use her aerial attack but took a hard fall to the outside before Dame chucked her onto the announce table. Dame, even without former mentor Kiana James by her side, grounded the high-flying Ruca. Just as Dame looked to be in control, Ruca hit the Soul Snatcher, booking her ticket to Las Vegas.

Match #1: Nathan Frazer & Axiom def. The Lwo and Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Nathan Frazer and Axiom are officially headed to Stand & Deliver after the dynamic duo defeated The Lwo and Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson in a Triple Threat Tag Team Match to become the No. 1 Contenders to the Nxt Tag Team Titles. The speed of Frazer and Axiom was matched by Joaquin Wilde and Cruz Del Toro, but the brute strength of Gallows and Anderson clashed with their speedy and athletic opponents. Chaos ensued when all six Superstars found themselves in the ring, and a Magic Killer to Wilde opened the door for Frazer to hit a scintillating 450 Splash to punch his team’s ticket to Stand & Deliver.

Match #1: Roxanne Perez def. Tatum Paxley The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Roxanne Perez is one step closer to Stand & Deliver as she defeated Tatum Paxley, challenged Lyra Valkyria, and attacked the champion once again. Before the match could even begin, Paxley attacked Perez as the two brawled at the ringside area. Paxley put up a fight, but a Pop Rox into a crossface from Perez sealed the victory. After the match, a sling-wearing Valkyria confronted The Prodigy only for Perez to lock her in a crossface as well.

Match #1: Austin Theory def. LA Knight The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Austin Theory became the No. 1 Contender to the United States Championship after The Miz showed up to Friday Night SmackDown and cost LA Knight the match. Knight was on a mission to prove a point, especially with The Miz at ringside, as he bashed Theory’s face on the announce table right in front of The A-Lister. Sick and tired of Knight’s success, The Miz hopped off of commentary, and his distraction allowed Theory to roll up Knight and win the match, securing his championship opportunity.
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Asuka & Charlotte Flair def. Bayley & Iyo Sky The following is courtesy of wwe.com:...

Match #1: LA Knight def. Sheamus The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
LA Knight backed up his trash talk and his megastar status by defeating Sheamus in front of a few of his opponents for the SummerSlam Battle Royal. Sheamus didn’t take Knight’s pre-match barbs lightly as he brutalized the megastar, even hitting a back-breaking White Noise onto the rock-hard apron. The other competitors in the Battle Royal started surrounding the ringside area, and due to confusion and chaos caused by the Superstars, Knight hit Blunt Force Trauma and came away victorious.

Match #1: Undisputed WWE Tag Team Title No. 1 Contenders’ Gauntlet Match – Winners: Pretty Deadly The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
It was Fight Night x 5 to kick off SmackDown, as a No. 1 Contenders’ Gauntlet Match put an Undisputed WWE Tag Team Title opportunity on the line. The Brawling Brutes got things rolling, as a quick tag teed up Sheamus for a decisive Brogue Kick set the tone with a defeat of The Street Profits. The O.C. stormed the ring with fury, but when Karl Anderson let down his guard, The Celtic Warrior connected with the second victorious Brogue Kick in a row. The next two victories would come in rapid succession, as a winded Sheamus tagged in Ridge Holland who overpowered Lwo.

Match #1: Austin Theory & Pretty Deadly def. The Brawling Brutes The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
The Brawling Brutes left SmackDown in a fit of rage after the team of United States Champion & Pretty Deadly outsmarted and defeated them in six-man tag team action. Sheamus seemingly had the match won after a devastating Brogue Kick to Theory, but Pretty Deadly snatched the United States Champion out of the ring before the referee could finish his three count. Later on, Ridge Holland was in position to win the match, but when the referee had his back turned, Elton Prince & Kit Wilson wisely switched places and the confusion allowed them to hit Spilled Milk and stun the Brutes.
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: The O.

The 18th Austin Film Festival is here. To help celebrate all the locally connected movies at this year's fest, we've reached out to a number of filmmakers to find out about their Austin and Texas-tied films screening at the fest.
Strings is a a thriller co-directed by Austinite Ben Foster and written by co-director Mark Dennis (pictured above at Tulsa Film Festival with Ben on the left). The film is about a grieving man who opts for an experimental therapy to start a new life with unexpected consequences. I haven't seen the movie yet, but Austinite Karl Anderson, who has a significant role in the film, was very impressive during the script reading of By Way of Helena at Aff last year, so I can't wait to see his peformance on screen. In the meantime Ben Foster graciously took the time to answer some questions about Strings, Aff and Austin.
