The NXT women's invasion and the entire US Open Challenge segment were great (closest we've come to Cena being on the road to turning heel).

 

Stardust going full comic-book villain (while also getting in a nice homage to his daddy) was good too.

Pretty much this. Everything else was a bit meh at best.

 

How long have they been using "fireflies" for Bray Wyatt's name display, I only noticed it this week?

Triple threat US challenge match was awesome, Cesaro vs Rusev needs to be added to Battleground. The NXT 'women' debuting on Raw was also very refreshing, I thought Paige looked a little out of place??

They've been doing it for quite a while now actually.

 

Also, how awesome is Cesaro right now? Just hope they don't blow this one to pieces.

I thought the NXT diva stuff was bad, let's bring out these girls and put them into the factions so there is 3 v 3 v 3 it was so artificial and fake it was terrible. They should have had them make a save, cut a promo, etc, not go your a faction and your a faction and your a faction fight on screen awful way of doing it

The entire angle was leading up to Charlotte and one of Becky or Sasha joining with Paige against the Bellas / Fox, leading to a tag-match of some description, so it's not illogical.

 

Personally, I would have preferred it being Paige introducing them (much in the same way Itami introduced Finn to help him against The Ascension) and it being her, Charlotte, Sasha and Becky against the Bellas, Fox and one other Diva, but at least they were brought up, put over as threats and actually treated with respect by the announcers.

 

Also, to note, all four of the NXTers use submission finishers, which is pretty damn cool.
