While I am a huge fan of The Nexus, they seem a tad bit too overpowering with WWE's pay-per-view being Sunday.
 
I guess it does bring some intrigue into the matches, but so many key superstars are getting beat down on a regular basis that the matches are getting lost in the shuffle.
 
I thought WWE delivered a strong NXT show Tuesday.
 
The matches/angles:
 
1. Mark Henry (pictured above, Getty Images)/Lucky Cannon beat The Miz/Alex Riley. REACT: Lucky Cannon looked much better than in past weeks. He should survive the next cut. I like how The Miz-Mark Henry feud from Raw was followed up on.
 
2. "The Showtime" Percy Watson show. REACT: Purpose accomplished in setting up the main event. Watson still annoys me.
 
3. The Nexus wins the 20-Man Over-the-Top Rope Battle Royal. REACT: Strength in numbers. The Miz was smart to bail. I like the "You're either Nexus or you're against us" phrase.
