Maybe, just maybe, the Nucklavee was beaten by RNJR because after years of Haven's huntsmen and generic NPC red shirt hunters widdled away at it for 8 something years. Maybe the day RNJR fought was just the day it was on it's last legs. But if that's the case, one of the soldier should've said so. To me the cave scene with all the blades there, meant the monster would be attacked but never by Huntsmen or anyone with real power or skill to drop it. Implying that it was a smart foe that was too cunning to be caught by Huntsmen. But that doesn't add up either because Huntsmen are suppose to be the best of the best. Especially at Grimm hunting. When the soldier said they saw the smoke he should have added:

Soldier: "We've been trying to kill that thing for years. We'd get close but it would always hide somewhere and leave a swarm of Nevermores to keep us from chasing after it."

Then I'd have nothing to say. Instead we just see it leave it's cave, attack RNJR and there's just suddenly no other Grimm in the area and it's a push-over compared to any human villain warriors in the show.
