On this week's WWE NXT, Lucky Cannon was down on his luck once more with another loss to Cody Rhodes, this time in a tag team match involving Mark Henry and Husky Harris.
Rhodes, who now insists on being identified as "Dashing" Cody Rhodes, got another pinfall win over Cannon after defeating him two weeks ago in a five-minute challenge match.
This time around another dose of Cross Rhodes got the win for the "Dashing" Pro and his rookie, Husky Harris, who got his first notch in the win column as a result.
The biggest news of the night however was the announcement of the return home for the "Nexus". The group of NXT Season 1 rookies who have been on a warpath on Monday Night RAW are revisiting NXT next week.
While no-one knows what the group's real agenda is, it could prove to be bad news for both the Pros and rookies on Season 2.
Dominating
No.1 ranked Kaval suffered another loss, this week to the United States Champion, The Miz.
Kaval was close to picking up a surprising and impressive win after landing his unorthodox Tidal Krush, a cartwheel then high kick at the turnbuckle.
The "Awesome" Miz however kicked out and soon countered with the Skull-Crushing Finale to pick up the victory.
Michael McGillicutty continued his winning streak, with his fourth in four matches against "Showtime" Percy Watson.
The match barely got going but while "Showtime" was dominating, McGillicutty countered with a perfectly executed Sunset flip to pin a crestfallen Watson.
He does have one reason to cheer however after winning the talk-the-talk challenge which opened the show.
Watson, who clearly oozes the most charisma, will now host his own talk show on NXT next week after the WWE Universe in attendance voted him the victor of the surreal challenge in which the rookies had to talk about a chosen subject for 30 seconds each.
Don't miss the return of the "Nexus" on next week's WWE NXT, every Thursday at midnight on Sky Sports HD2.
