01:25:34,929 --> 01:25:35,930 Lars Sullivan more than I have. 1673 01:25:35,997 --> 01:25:40,768 Lars stated Aleister Black has never been challenged by anyone like him. 1674 01:25:41,169 --> 01:25:42,103 Do you guys agree? 1675 01:25:42,170 --> 01:25:43,071 [Vic] A hundred percent. 1676 01:25:43,138 --> 01:25:46,107 I mean this freak had just rammed through people 1677 01:25:46,174 --> 01:25:48,443 from Kassius oh no, no way Jose, 1678 01:25:48,510 --> 01:25:51,880 Velveteen Dream, and Ricochet, and even the champ himself. 1679 01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:56,384 I mean this guy is just freakishly relentless and brutal. 1680 01:25:56,718 --> 01:25:57,685 [Nigel] Absolutely. 1681 01:25:57,752 --> 01:25:58,586 Black said, 1682 01:25:58,653 --> 01:26:01,222 "I only need one shot to make my opponent fade to black." 1683 01:26:01,723 --> 01:26:03,758 Lars Sullivan made him a liar. 1684 01:26:04,359 --> 01:26:08,396 Catch him, not just block him, catching the Black Mass spinning 1685 01:26:08,463 --> 01:26:12,066 heel kick and emasculating the NXT champion. 1686 01:26:12,767 --> 01:26:13,968 [Percy] So Nigel, I got to ask you. 1687 01:26:14,035 --> 01:26:15,670 Do you believe the Black Mass 1688 01:26:15,737 --> 01:26:16,938 can put down Lars? 1689 01:26:17,005 --> 01:26:19,174 Whoa, I wouldn't dare to guess. 1690 01:26:19,574 --> 01:26:23,578 The bigger question is can he hit the Black Mass spinning heel kick? 1691 01:26:25,346 --> 01:26:27,982 Certainly not when Lars isn't a hundred percent. 1692 01:26:28,850 --> 01:26:29,751 We've seen that. 1693 01:26:29,817 --> 01:26:31,786 On this past Wednesday on NXT TV 1694 01:26:31,853 --> 01:26:35,190 was Lars Sullivan who is standing tall over a fallen Black. 1695 01:26:35,557 --> 01:26:38,026 Will that be the result tonight? 1696 01:26:38,092 --> 01:26:43,431 [music] 1697 01:27:42,991 --> 01:27:44,792 [Vic] Aleister Black said the devil 1698 01:27:44,859 --> 01:27:48,663 on his back is now the devil around his waist. 1699 01:27:49,397 --> 01:27:52,033 [Nigel] Well, now he faces a humongous devil 1700 01:27:52,367 --> 01:27:54,235 in the form Lars Sullivan. 1701 01:27:54,302 --> 01:27:56,537 It's often that you see a champion 1702 01:27:56,604 --> 01:27:59,741 come out here to be considered an underdog. 1703 01:27:59,941 --> 01:28:01,075 [Vic] And I would have to say that 1704 01:28:01,142 --> 01:28:04,512 exactly what Aleister Black is when he faces Lars Sullivan. 1705 01:28:04,579 --> 01:28:07,115 Well, a lot of people in the NXT universe would agree with you, 1706 01:28:07,181 --> 01:28:08,316 but, Percy, what say you? 1707 01:28:08,383 --> 01:28:10,084 [Percy] I think--i think Aleister Black 1708 01:28:10,151 --> 01:28:11,552 is climbing an uphill battle, 1709 01:28:11,619 --> 01:28:14,589 but Sullivan did say he's gonna take everything Black 1710 01:28:14,656 --> 01:28:16,824 has worked his entire life for. 1711 01:28:20,862 --> 01:28:24,999 [Nigel] Being obviously that prestigious NXT title around Black's waist. 1712 01:28:25,066 --> 01:28:32,040 [music] 1713 01:28:33,574 --> 01:28:34,809 He's defended it with pride. 1714 01:28:37,578 --> 01:28:40,515 He is the 13th NXT champion. 1715 01:28:40,848 --> 01:28:42,884 Will it be a lucky title defense 1716 01:28:43,251 --> 01:28:44,652 for Aleister Black tonight? 1717 01:28:53,261 --> 01:28:58,366 [crowd cheering] 1718 01:28:59,734 --> 01:29:00,735 [bell ringing] 1719 01:29:01,235 --> 01:29:08,109 The following contest scheduled one fall is for the NXT championship. 1720 01:29:12,180 --> 01:29:15,950 Introducing the challenger, from the Rocky Mountains, 1721 01:29:16,751 --> 01:29:22,423 weighing in at 303 pounds, Lars Sullivan. 1722 01:29:27,962 --> 01:29:32,100 And his opponent, from Amsterdam, Holland. 1723 01:29:32,867 --> 01:29:35,470 Weighing in at 215 pounds, 1724 01:29:36,304 --> 01:29:42,944 he is the NXT champion, Aleister Black. 1725 01:29:44,178 --> 01:29:48,516 [crowd cheering] 1726 01:29:49,951 --> 01:29:52,787 [Nigel] The eyes of the champion burying into his opponent. 1727 01:29:53,821 --> 01:29:55,723 [Vic] And Nigel, I want to ask you about strategy, 1728 01:29:55,790 --> 01:29:59,093 this championship match because it feels that Lars Sullivan 1729 01:29:59,160 --> 01:30:02,897 is the reality that Aleister Black may not be able to figure out. 1730 01:30:03,164 --> 01:30:05,833 So, how does Black retain his title tonight here in Chicago? 1731 01:30:05,900 --> 01:30:08,136 [Nigel] Well, really, obviously it comes down to the Black Mass 1732 01:30:08,202 --> 01:30:11,939 spinning heel kick or perhaps if he's got something else, 1733 01:30:12,006 --> 01:30:13,574 a plan b. But if I'm Aleister Black, 1734 01:30:13,808 --> 01:30:14,709 that's what I'm doing. 1735 01:30:14,776 --> 01:30:15,777 I'm attempting to hit that. 1736 01:30:17,311 --> 01:30:20,214 The question is we've seen--if Sullivan at a hundred percent, 1737 01:30:20,448 --> 01:30:22,116 he can catch that hold. 1738 01:30:22,550 --> 01:30:25,787 So, Black's gonna have to weigh down Lars Sullivan. 1739 01:30:25,853 --> 01:30:27,955 [Percy] That's the key. It's one thing at a time. 1740 01:30:28,289 --> 01:30:30,825 Aleister Black is undefeated in singles action 1741 01:30:30,892 --> 01:30:33,361 but that could all change by the end of the night. 1742 01:30:33,428 --> 01:30:34,429 You said it takes one shot. 1743 01:30:34,495 --> 01:30:37,432 But it's not what is gonna take for me. 1744 01:30:45,873 --> 01:30:47,675 I'm gonna take you out. 1745 01:30:48,142 --> 01:30:50,812 I'm gonna hold you [Indistinct] 1746 01:30:50,878 --> 01:30:52,814 [Crowd chatter] 1747 01:30:52,880 --> 01:30:59,454 [Indistinct] 1748 01:31:00,955 --> 01:31:04,725 And Black seemed unfazed by that stare down with Lars Sullivan. 1749 01:31:04,792 --> 01:31:05,626 But now Sullivan, picking… 1750 01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:07,228 No. 1751 01:31:07,295 --> 01:31:09,530 He was looking for freak accident.
