The wrestlers have to wrestle at 50mph and if one of them slows down they lose the match.

I think it was called The Wrestler That Couldn't Slow Down.

Whats a Speed Championship? 

It was an ill conceived idea for a 5 minute match based off a Paul London idea from 2005 where replacing the limits of a weight division by being for bigger folks who can move at speed and intensity can also have a shout at titles without limits. X without the Pac. On X. 

Then when it didn't work it got booted to NXT, again with more X's, for the middle ground who weren't North American Title ready but they need to fill TV time. The current men's champion is Lexis King, the least talented member of his generational wrestling stable and the least interesting member of The Varsity Blonds (a group now made up of the lesser talented of the three Toxic Spiders in AEW and who the fuck is Griff Garrison?) 

I don't even know if this is a moan about nepotism, too many titles, too much TV or all of the above.

Would probably be better if they had to wrestle while on Speed.

Brutus Beefcake matches suggest otherwise.

Hardly anybody on NXT really stands out to me these days. Zaria has a unique look and could do well. Same with Myka Lockwood but other than that I'm not massively inspired by most of the current crop. 

Nobody grabs me and makes me want to watch the show. That could be down to the lackluster booking too but I used to watch NXT pretty regularly and now I usually skip most of it.

Kendal is pretty much my only reason these days.

Kendal Vs Kelani was really good, mens title match not so much but then I'm biased as I'm bored to death of multi man (or women) matches 

Tag title match and NA title match were decent enough, good twist with Borne being the one to turn when everything hinted at Tavion

Nattie's character is decent enough but her matches still aren't the best, she should just be fodder for the up and comers on Raw or Smackdown 

Disappointed Wren didn't win, though that's partly to do with how much 15 year old me would've loved her ring gear

Think they might've gone slightly overboard with heels holding every title
