On the latest episode of his podcast, Booker T discussed the opening match of NX Great American Bash this past weekend, that saw Nathan Frazer, Yulisa León, Valentina Feroz, and Dragon Lee defeat Meta-Four (Noam Dar, Jakara Jackson, Lash Legend, and Oro Mensah) by pinfall in an eight-person mixed tag team match on the kick-off show.
Booker admitted being worried about convoluted nature of the pre-show match due to the high number of competitors and the mixed tag team rules. In the end, however, Booker heaped praise on the match. He said,
“I was so worried about that match too. I think if you heard me tell Vic, I said, ‘You’re gonna have to help me out with this one. Because it’s way too many people out here, I don’t know the rules. So hook me up, you know?’ But it turned out to be a damn good match, it really did.”
In particular, Booker T praised Yulisa León and Valentina Feroz for their chemistry.
“They’re really good together. They could be literally the spice that really put that tag team in a position where people can look at it. I really feel that way, those two got something special… They should keep ’em together. When they do finally move, they move together, and they move with the tag team. And if they break off from there somewhere down the line, that’s one thing. But that feeling of having tag teams come in as teams, that’s gone. And it felt a certain way when you saw the Road Warriors, the Nasty Boys, the Steiner brothers, Harlem Heat, the Rock and Roll Express, the Midnight Express. Those guys made you feel like they were buttoned at the hip. Like they were tag teams, twin brothers from different mothers, all that type of stuff. So, yeah, man. Yeah, I think so.”
