One man has a bullseye on their chest
and it's Grayson Waller.

[Wade] I'll be honest with you,
if I got jumped in the parking lot

30
00:01:36,396 --> 00:01:39,199
like LA Knight did four or five weeks ago,

31
00:01:39,265 --> 00:01:44,370
if I got put on the shelf for a month,
I'd come back here with a vendetta too.

32
00:01:44,437 --> 00:01:48,975
Waller has made so many enemies at NXT,
I've kind of lost count of them,

but front and center is the megastar.

[Vic] Take a look at the NXT universe,
on their feet.

The atmosphere, at an all-time high.
They're almost up against the ring now.

You know, that's about what I expected.

You know, I have to turn my back
to get you out here?

53
00:03:41,888 --> 00:03:45,525
Because we all know
you ain't going to look in these eyes.

54
00:03:45,592 --> 00:03:47,427

You got to understand something,
Grayson Waller.

59
00:04:05,545 --> 00:04:09,482
Week after week,
there's a sound that you hear,

60
00:04:09,549 --> 00:04:12,452

But… But as much as that…

As much as that chaps your ass,
there's one sound that just haunts you.

65
00:04:28,801 --> 00:04:32,171
There's one sound
that brings a feeling to you

66
00:04:32,238 --> 00:04:35,608
that you can't quite describe
and that's the name of the man

67
00:04:35,675 --> 00:04:41,114
who's going to drop you on your head
with everybody saying, "LA Knight."

68
00:04:41,180 --> 00:04:42,582
Yeah.

Because let's go ahead
and go on back to Halloween Havoc.

71
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,324
You tried to sabotage the car
so I couldn't make it, but guess what?

72
00:04:51,391 --> 00:04:53,626
You couldn't get the job done.

73
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,998
So then we go on to WarGames.
You do one halfway cool move.

74
00:04:59,065 --> 00:05:02,468
People think you're kind of cool.
Actually, nobody except yourself.

75
00:05:03,369 --> 00:05:07,306
And you figure, "Hey, man,
maybe that took out LA Knight."

76
00:05:07,373 --> 00:05:11,044
Nuh-nuh. You couldn't get the job done.

77
00:05:12,245 --> 00:05:15,782
So then a couple of nights later,
you get all upset

78
00:05:15,848 --> 00:05:19,318
because here's this sweet little chickadee
outside.

79
00:05:19,385 --> 00:05:24,724

-Yeah.

But you know why she turned you down?

82
00:05:29,329 --> 00:05:32,732

you couldn't get the job done.

00:05:36,369 --> 00:05:38,971

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on right there.

This is a restraining order,

89

which says you can't touch me.

90
00:06:13,206 --> 00:06:18,811

you're gonna regret, let me talk to you.

92

There is nothing I would love more
than to get in there and fight you.

93
00:06:28,454 --> 00:06:32,492
Especially after you acted
like a dog last week,

94
00:06:32,558 --> 00:06:36,596

96

But… But my lawyers advised me
that for my safety,

97
00:06:46,172 --> 00:06:50,943
and more importantly, your safety,
this is what has to happen.

98
00:06:51,010 --> 00:06:55,248
This is your fault, LA Knight.
You made this happen.

Check it out yourself, mate.
Oh, oh, oh. Have a look. Have a look. Hey.

"If you get within 50 feet
of Grayson Waller,

103
00:07:13,699 --> 00:07:17,470
you get arrested immediately."

No, no. I got something better for you
because although this is good,

you got a restraining order against me,
that's pretty big,

119

against him.

trying to Silence…

127

Grayson Waller, it's real simple.

128
00:08:49,529 --> 00:08:53,633
You can lift this restraining order
and get dropped on your head by LA Knight

129
00:08:53,699 --> 00:08:57,003
or you can get put to sleep
by Dexter Lumis.

130
00:08:57,069 --> 00:09:00,606
Either way, you're getting your ass kicked
and that's not an insult,

131
00:09:00,673 --> 00:09:02,942
that is just a fact of life.

132
00:09:03,543 --> 00:09:06,646
[Vic] Who's going to face Waller?
It's Waller's choice.

133

We're gonna find out
when we come back next.

134
00:09:08,748 --> 00:09:10,483
Waller's got to make a decision.

135
00:09:15,054 --> 00:09:16,889
[Vic] We are back live on NXT,

136
00:09:16,956 --> 00:09:19,458
and there's never a dull moment
here on Tuesday nights.

137
00:09:19,525 --> 00:09:23,462
We found out during the commercial break,
Grayson Waller chose Dexter Lumis,

138
00:09:23,529 --> 00:09:27,400
meaning the restraining order
against LA Knight is still intact.

139
00:09:27,466 --> 00:09:31,203
[Wade] Yeah, indeed. Perhaps felt Lumis
was the lesser of two evils

140
00:09:31,270 --> 00:09:34,507
with a clear rage inside LA Knight
right now,

141
00:09:34,574 --> 00:09:38,644
but I gotta be honest with you,
I'd not wanna face Dexter Lumis either.

142
00:09:38,711 --> 00:09:42,915
[Vic] Lumis right now piercing
into the soul of Grayson Waller.

143
00:09:42,982 --> 00:09:44,450
Hey, hey, hey. Hey, hey.

144
00:09:44,517 --> 00:09:46,686
[Vic] And staying
one step ahead of Waller right now.

145
00:09:47,186 --> 00:09:49,822
You just see how low Grayson Waller
is willing to go.

146
00:09:49,889 --> 00:09:52,625
Have you ever slapped
on a retraining order to someone?

147
00:09:52,692 --> 00:09:55,294
[Wade] Listen, even I…
Now, I got to be honest,

148
00:09:55,361 --> 00:09:58,497
I could never afford the lawyer fees
when it comes to restraining orders.

149
00:09:58,564 --> 00:10:03,436
But it goes to show you the kind of guy
that Grayson Waller really is.

150
00:10:03,502 --> 00:10:06,806
Stoops low.
Looks for excuses in the easy way.

151
00:10:06,872 --> 00:10:08,341
[Vic] Boom! Feel that impact.

152
00:10:08,407 --> 00:10:12,912
Look, Dexter Lumis has a lot riding
on this for himself personally.

153
00:10:12,979 --> 00:10:16,682
He does not forget what Waller did to him
several weeks ago.

154
00:10:16,749 --> 00:10:20,219
For someone who doesn't say much,
he certainly sees and hears everything.

155
00:10:20,286 --> 00:10:21,887
[Wade] Yeah, he sees, hears everything.

156
00:10:21,954 --> 00:10:25,391
He's seen all the creepy
social media interactions

157
00:10:25,458 --> 00:10:27,927
that Waller has been sending his wife,
Indi Hartwell.

158
00:10:27,994 --> 00:10:33,265
Listen, I've not approved of the marriage
of Indi Hartwell and Dexter Lumis,

159
00:10:33,332 --> 00:10:35,334
but you don't mess with a man's wife.

160
00:10:35,401 --> 00:10:36,969
Great recipe for trouble.

161
00:10:37,036 --> 00:10:40,906
[Vic] Right now, Waller is focusing
on the left arm of Dexter Lumis.

162
00:10:40,973 --> 00:10:42,942
[Wade] Yeah, very smart to do so.

163
00:10:43,009 --> 00:10:47,179
He knows full well that Dexter Lumis needs
that left arm to slap on the Silence.

164
00:10:47,246 --> 00:10:49,248
He already tried that once
earlier tonight.

165
00:10:49,315 --> 00:10:53,552
Of course, who could forget the injury
to Dexter Lumis' hand not so long ago?

166
00:10:53,619 --> 00:10:56,088
Couldn't express himself
with his art of corn bats.

167
00:10:56,155 --> 00:10:58,457
That's not going to play well
for Dexter Lumis.

168
00:10:58,524 --> 00:10:59,825
[Vic] This is the first time
we've seen Lumis

169
00:10:59,892 --> 00:11:02,461
since being attacked by Grayson Waller.

170
00:11:02,528 --> 00:11:05,464
[audience chanting "Grayson, you suck"]

171
00:11:05,531 --> 00:11:09,201
[Wade] Attacked by Grayson Waller.
Yet another cheap shot.

172
00:11:09,268 --> 00:11:10,670
Blindside attack with a chair.

173
00:11:10,736 --> 00:11:12,972
We've seen him do that
once or twice before.

174
00:11:13,039 --> 00:11:16,008
And of course, Indi Hartwell
had to watch her hubby laid out.

175
00:11:16,075 --> 00:11:18,144
Took a mental toll on her, I'm sure.

176
00:11:18,210 --> 00:11:21,280
Indeed, in turn,
a mental toll on Dexter Lumis.

177
00:11:21,347 --> 00:11:23,616
Revenge should be swift.

178
00:11:23,683 --> 00:11:26,685
[Vic] Revenge right now
on the mind of Lumis.

179
00:11:26,752 --> 00:11:29,021
And, whoa, what an uppercut.

180
00:11:29,088 --> 00:11:30,589
[Wade] Nice pop-up uppercut there.

181
00:11:30,656 --> 00:11:34,860
Using gravity and momentum
on Grayson Waller.

182
00:11:34,927 --> 00:11:37,296
Grayson Waller has no idea
where he's at right now.

183
00:11:37,363 --> 00:11:40,299
[Vic] And right now,
Lumis in full control of this matchup.

184
00:11:40,366 --> 00:11:46,105
Center of the ring, nice neck breaker,
and Lumis, that slow methodical pace.

185
00:11:46,172 --> 00:11:50,643
He's going to take a lot of enjoyment
into inflicting some pain into Waller.

186
00:11:50,709 --> 00:11:52,945
[Wade] How badly does he want
to win the match

187
00:11:53,012 --> 00:11:56,048
versus how badly does he want
to torture Grayson Waller.

188
00:11:56,115 --> 00:11:59,852
[Vic] We also know that LA Knight
somewhere is watching very closely.

189
00:11:59,919 --> 00:12:02,822
[Wade] Yeah, he wishes
he was a little closer than 50 foot,

190
00:12:02,888 --> 00:12:03,923
I guarantee you that,

191
00:12:03,989 --> 00:12:07,760
thanks to that restraining order
that the cowardly Waller has taken out.

192
00:12:07,827 --> 00:12:11,864
Jump a man in the parking lot,
there's gonna come a time to pay the toll.

193
00:12:11,931 --> 00:12:13,699
[audience chanting "one more time"]

194
00:12:13,766 --> 00:12:18,637
[Vic] You ask, NXT universe,
Dexter Lumis delivers.

195
00:12:18,704 --> 00:12:22,608
[Wade] I cannot believe I'm pulling
for Dexter Lumis right now.

196
00:12:22,675 --> 00:12:25,211
[Vic] Lumis, into the cover
out the trifecta of neck breakers,

197
00:12:25,277 --> 00:12:27,113
and a kick out by Waller.

198
00:12:27,179 --> 00:12:31,183
If one wasn't enough, two wasn't enough,
how about this third?

199
00:12:31,250 --> 00:12:34,186
Devastating neck breaker
delivered by Dexter Lumis.

200
00:12:34,253 --> 00:12:37,990
And, look, everything Lumis is doing
is with serious intent.

201
00:12:38,057 --> 00:12:41,160
[Wade] Of course,
he's trying to damage Grayson Waller.

202
00:12:41,227 --> 00:12:44,430
There's an entire locker room of men
in NXT

203
00:12:44,497 --> 00:12:46,465
who want to see Grayson Waller punished.

204
00:12:46,532 --> 00:12:48,567
I'll include myself in that group too,

205
00:12:48,634 --> 00:12:51,504
and I'm sure our NXT universe
feel the same way.

206
00:12:51,570 --> 00:12:55,074
What a slime ball Grayson Waller has been
for the past couple of months.

207
00:12:55,141 --> 00:12:58,377
[Vic] Now Waller, trying to stay one step
ahead but it is Lumis right now,

208
00:12:58,444 --> 00:13:01,147
and again back to the injured left arm.

209
00:13:01,213 --> 00:13:05,851
Waller has been focusing, has a plan,
and Waller now…

210
00:13:05,918 --> 00:13:08,621
You said it was choosing
a lesser of two evils

211
00:13:08,687 --> 00:13:11,223
between Knight and Lumis,

212
00:13:11,290 --> 00:13:16,228
as right now looks like right here
in front of us. Big clothesline.

213
00:13:16,295 --> 00:13:18,931
[Wade] This is the most frustrating thing.

214
00:13:20,332 --> 00:13:25,070
[audience chanting]

215
00:13:27,106 --> 00:13:30,075
[Vic] Back live on NXT, as we've seen
throughout the commercial break,

216
00:13:30,142 --> 00:13:33,145
Grayson Waller has been in control
of this match.

217
00:13:33,212 --> 00:13:36,015
Look, he's kicking things off tonight.
He was in the main event last week.

218
00:13:36,081 --> 00:13:39,351
And Wade, how much momentum
could Waller have lost

219
00:13:39,418 --> 00:13:41,453
and losing to AJ Styles last week?

220
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,155
[Wade] Listen,
here's the ridiculous thing.

221
00:13:43,222 --> 00:13:46,392
Waller has actually gained momentum
even in defeat

222
00:13:46,458 --> 00:13:48,494
against someone like AJ last week.

223
00:13:48,561 --> 00:13:51,630
AJ Styles,
arguably the number-one performer

224
00:13:51,697 --> 00:13:52,965
on the entire planet.

225
00:13:53,032 --> 00:13:56,468
Waller lost.
Let's face it, he came really close.

226
00:13:56,535 --> 00:14:01,273
A millisecond away from beating AJ,
but now he is getting an absolute whopping

227
00:14:01,340 --> 00:14:04,043
at the hands of Dexter Lumis.

228
00:14:04,109 --> 00:14:07,179
[Vic] The lesson wasn't learned last week
by Waller from AJ Styles.

229
00:14:07,246 --> 00:14:09,481
Maybe a lesson will be learned this week.

230
00:14:09,548 --> 00:14:12,685
[Wade] Yes, indeed. I hope so,
but there could be no doubts left

231
00:14:12,751 --> 00:14:15,221
about Waller's caliber
in the ring right now

232
00:14:15,287 --> 00:14:18,157
even if his attitude completely sucks.

233
00:14:19,191 --> 00:14:23,996
[Vic] Lumis, showcasing
that scary strength he possesses.

234
00:14:24,063 --> 00:14:28,200
Dead lift, belly-to-back suplex,
and there's some innovative offense.

235
00:14:28,267 --> 00:14:32,004
Inverted leg drop, Dexter Lumis.

236
00:14:32,071 --> 00:14:33,672
[audience cheering]

237
00:14:34,139 --> 00:14:38,110
And you just feel the energy
from the NXT universe.

238
00:14:38,177 --> 00:14:42,548
[Wade] It's coming completely unglued
right now for Dexter Lumis.

239
00:14:42,615 --> 00:14:46,852
Wanting to see Grayson Waller
get his final battering.

240
00:14:47,786 --> 00:14:52,791
[Vic] Can it be Lumis
who Silences Waller here tonight?

241
00:14:52,858 --> 00:14:55,361
Waller… Oh, the grip.
Almost got the Silence locked in.

242
00:14:55,427 --> 00:14:58,897
And like a snake slithering home,
Waller able to get to the ropes.

243
00:14:58,964 --> 00:15:00,633
[Wade] Scurrying away for dear life

244
00:15:00,699 --> 00:15:03,502
but immediately on top of him
is Dexter Lumis.

245
00:15:03,569 --> 00:15:07,106
[Vic] Right back here in front of us. Oh!

246
00:15:07,172 --> 00:15:10,175
Talk about the action
being closer than ever.

247
00:15:10,242 --> 00:15:11,543
That includes us as.

248
00:15:11,610 --> 00:15:14,580
[Wade] That's kidney-first
into the corner of our desk.

249
00:15:14,647 --> 00:15:17,916
-You see the welts forming.
-[Vic] Who in the…

250
00:15:17,983 --> 00:15:19,551
[audience cheering]

251
00:15:19,618 --> 00:15:21,920
[Vic] The referee's distracted.

252
00:15:21,987 --> 00:15:26,525
-[Wade] Who the hell's this beast?
-[Vic] Our official not realizing…

253
00:15:26,592 --> 00:15:30,930
Who the… The match continuing.

254
00:15:30,996 --> 00:15:34,166
Waller, big stunner, center of the ring.

255
00:15:34,233 --> 00:15:36,001
-[Wade] No.
-[Vic] Not like this.

256
00:15:36,068 --> 00:15:37,636
[audience] One! Two! Three!

257
00:15:37,703 --> 00:15:40,739
-[Vic] Waller picks up the win.
-[bell ringing]

258
00:15:40,806 --> 00:15:41,974
[Vic] Who is this guy?

259
00:15:42,041 --> 00:15:45,611
[Alicia] Here is your winner,
Grayson Waller.

260
00:15:45,678 --> 00:15:47,880
[Wade] I'll let you go and ask him.

261
00:15:47,947 --> 00:15:50,516
["Eye On The Prize" playing]

262
00:15:50,582 --> 00:15:52,084
[Vic] That guy's huge.

263
00:15:52,584 --> 00:15:55,120
[audience booing]

264
00:15:55,187 --> 00:16:00,759
[Vic] The NXT universe
not feeling the Waller effect tonight.

265
00:16:00,826 --> 00:16:02,828
[Wade] Yeah, let's face it,
it wasn't just the Waller effect.

266
00:16:02,895 --> 00:16:05,464
It was whoever that giant guy over there.

267
00:16:07,333 --> 00:16:09,034
[Vic] Let's go back to the action, I mean.

268
00:16:09,101 --> 00:16:12,304
For Dexter Lumis,
this was the best chance in the matchup

269
00:16:12,371 --> 00:16:15,507
to not only win
but to Silence Grayson Waller,

270
00:16:15,574 --> 00:16:19,978
but as we said, slithering his way free,
the snake that Grayson Waller is.

271
00:16:20,045 --> 00:16:23,048
[Wade] Grayson Waller,
just about having that wherewithal

272
00:16:23,115 --> 00:16:25,951
-to get away from Dexter Lumis.
-[Vic] Here's the turning point.

273
00:16:26,018 --> 00:16:30,723
[Wade] Where on earth this guy came from?
I need all the facts on this guy ASAP.

274
00:16:30,789 --> 00:16:33,892
Because this was the turning point
in the matchup

275
00:16:33,959 --> 00:16:37,763
which led to this,
the grand finale from Grayson Waller.

276
00:16:37,830 --> 00:16:40,399
We're going to have to hear about this
for weeks now.

277
00:16:40,466 --> 00:16:41,734
[audience] One! Two! Three!

278
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,070
[Vic] The door was open
and Waller walked right through.

279
00:16:45,871 --> 00:16:47,339
LA Knight.

280
00:16:48,807 --> 00:16:51,276

[audience booing]

282
00:16:55,180 --> 00:16:57,916
[Vic] Waller, all smiles here tonight.

283
00:16:57,983 --> 00:17:00,619
We got to turn to our massive main event.

284
00:17:00,686 --> 00:17:05,224
It all came together with an incident
that took place over the weekend.

285
00:17:10,129 --> 00:17:12,664
Well, the Creed Brothers aren't gonna run
through the tournament.

286
00:17:12,731 --> 00:17:14,666
They are going to sprint.

287
00:17:14,733 --> 00:17:19,972
Once they win the Dusty Classic,
we're onto the NXT Tag Team Championships.

288
00:17:20,039 --> 00:17:21,373
No one's worried about Imperium.

289
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,409
I heard everything they had to say
last week.

290
00:17:23,475 --> 00:17:26,845
-And Imperium, they're just a bunch of…
-What? What are we?

291
00:17:26,912 --> 00:17:29,381
-Hey, I said you're a bunch of body guys.
-Want to act tough?

292
00:17:29,448 --> 00:17:31,750
-Who's your personal trainer?
-Act tough now. Huh?

293
00:17:31,817 --> 00:17:33,585
-Act tough now.
-Put him down.

294
00:17:33,652 --> 00:17:36,455
-What are you talking about?
-Put him down!

295
00:17:42,261 --> 00:17:46,165
You're stepping up for this guy?
You want to take his fight?

296
00:17:46,231 --> 00:17:48,467
Look, I'm not scared of you.

297
00:17:48,534 --> 00:17:52,337
Everybody else in this place is,
but I'm not.

298
00:17:53,138 --> 00:17:54,406
That's good for you.

299
00:17:55,707 --> 00:17:58,377
-You should be scared.
-[chuckles] Yeah, right.

300
00:17:59,945 --> 00:18:03,248
[Vic] Well, It's a matchup
we never thought we would see tonight.

The leader of Diamond Mine,
Roderick Strong, showing no fear

as he goes up
against the Ring General, Walter

303
00:18:10,189 --> 00:18:12,057
in our massive main event this evening.

304
00:18:12,124 --> 00:18:15,961
[Wade] What a main event in store for us.
I got to be honest with you.

305
00:18:16,028 --> 00:18:21,200
I am so thrilled that the general, Walter,
is here in NXT full-time now,

306
00:18:21,266 --> 00:18:24,269
but Roderick Strong,
he's got a big problem on his hands.

307
00:18:24,336 --> 00:18:26,505
We're also very excited because tonight,

308
00:18:26,572 --> 00:18:31,510
it's the start of the men's

since their arrival.

406
00:23:50,495 --> 00:23:54,966
And with Malcolm Bivens at the wheel,
I just don't think anybody can stop them.

as Brutus starting things off with Jensen.

about this duo of Briggs and Jensen.

-And they started to win you over?
-[Wade] Yeah, they certainly have.

Listen, I wasn't sure about the chemistry
when they first got here.

in bars so I already knew they were tough.

of the top lip after that knee?

That was almost…
That's a… That's close to a KO.

Just as I was saying how tough they were,
now we know.

00:24:35,407 --> 00:24:38,476
Listen, they lacked a little finesse
and perhaps they still do,

and they're just fearless.

from Brooks Jensen.

Listen, that was scouted exactly
what the Creeds were going to do.

That kind of move has caught everyone
by surprise from the Creeds,

424
00:24:59,531 --> 00:25:02,868
but Jensen there absolutely scouted that.
I think he's bleeding from the mouth too.

on display by Briggs in the match.

its head right off the bat.

at the physicality
in this tag team matchup.

438
00:25:37,435 --> 00:25:39,504
[Wade] Nobody has done this
to the Creeds so far.

439
00:25:39,571 --> 00:25:42,741
They haven't been beaten
at their own game. Raw power, strength.

440
00:25:43,775 --> 00:25:46,811
[Vic] Look, Briggs and Jensen win tonight,

Things are looking bright for this duo.

442
00:25:50,215 --> 00:25:51,616
[Wade] Steady on. They haven't won it yet

443
00:25:51,683 --> 00:25:54,920
and they certainly haven't
got Kayden and Kacy to themselves.

444
00:25:54,986 --> 00:25:56,187

the hearts of Kacy and Kayden?

449
00:26:07,332 --> 00:26:10,135
[Wade] I get it. They are a couple
of young lads on the prowl,

450
00:26:10,201 --> 00:26:13,238
they're looking to hook up,
but they need to be focused on the ring,

-not the bedroom.
-[Vic] Uh-oh. Whoa.

and strength

457
00:26:27,385 --> 00:26:30,989
Brutus and Julius no doubt,
as physical as they come.

458
00:26:31,056 --> 00:26:34,926
This could be a big night
for Diamond Mine. Tag.

459
00:26:34,993 --> 00:26:37,062
[Wade] Absolutely. Let's face it,
big opportunity here

460
00:26:37,128 --> 00:26:40,031
to advance to the semifinals
of the Dusty Cup.

461

How huge is that?

462
00:26:41,066 --> 00:26:43,969
Of course, later on,
we have a massive main event

463
00:26:44,035 --> 00:26:48,373
when Roderick Strong of the Diamond Mine
squares off with the formidable Walter.

464
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:54,679
[Vic] And take a look right now.
Getting right up in the grill of Jensen.

465

as Julius Creed right now
inflicting some punishment.

467
00:27:03,221 --> 00:27:07,192
And to you, Wade,
what separates Julius and Brutus

468
00:27:07,258 --> 00:27:08,426
from the other team in this tournament?

469
00:27:08,493 --> 00:27:10,161
[Wade] There's a bunch of things
that separate them.

470
00:27:10,228 --> 00:27:11,096
[Vic] Woah!

471
00:27:11,162 --> 00:27:14,399
[Wade] That's just part of it right there.
Listen, athletic prowess,

472
00:27:14,466 --> 00:27:19,237
unique offense we've never seen before
in all of sports entertainment.

473
00:27:19,304 --> 00:27:21,906
Just as I say it,
they perform a move like that.

474
00:27:21,973 --> 00:27:24,075
Complete intensity, non-stop,

475
00:27:24,142 --> 00:27:28,079
and, of course, the guiding mind
of Malcolm "Big Money" Bivens.

476
00:27:28,146 --> 00:27:31,716
[Vic] You can just feel the air
rushing out of the lungs, in that moment,

477
00:27:31,783 --> 00:27:34,919
and then followed up
with that unique innovative offense

478
00:27:34,986 --> 00:27:37,555
as unique way to tag.

479
00:27:37,622 --> 00:27:39,424
Have you ever slapped
your tag team partner across the face?

480
00:27:39,491 --> 00:27:41,159
[Wade] I don't like getting slapped
in the face myself.

481
00:27:41,226 --> 00:27:42,227
You know, if it's going one way,

482
00:27:42,293 --> 00:27:44,029
it's coming back the other way
sooner or later.

483
00:27:44,095 --> 00:27:47,899
Listen, Brooks Jensen must feel like
he's been run over by a steamroller

484
00:27:47,966 --> 00:27:49,000
at this point.

485
00:27:49,067 --> 00:27:51,770
[Vic] Julius right back in,
focusing on those ribs,

486
00:27:51,836 --> 00:27:55,206
focusing on the midsection, and… Whoa!

487
00:27:56,207 --> 00:27:59,310
Snapping right off the middle rope,
went Julius.

488
00:27:59,377 --> 00:28:02,480
[Wade] This has been an all-out war.
It hasn't been going too long.

489
00:28:02,547 --> 00:28:04,182
It literally can't go much longer.

490
00:28:04,249 --> 00:28:08,853
The amount of abuse these four men
have incurred thus far in the match.

491
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,524
[Vic] These two teams know what it means
to win the Dusty Cup,

492
00:28:12,590 --> 00:28:14,059
what it could do for their careers

493
00:28:14,125 --> 00:28:17,462
because the winners of the Men's
Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic

494
00:28:17,529 --> 00:28:21,599
earn a guaranteed
NXT Tag Team Championship opportunity,

495
00:28:21,666 --> 00:28:26,071
and right now Briggs, hitting, dropping,
and splashing anything that moves.

496
00:28:26,137 --> 00:28:31,176
[Wade] Josh has to be the freshest man
in the matchup thus far.

497
00:28:31,242 --> 00:28:34,112
Both Creeds getting rocked and rolled.

498
00:28:34,179 --> 00:28:35,113
[grunts]

499
00:28:35,180 --> 00:28:37,182
[Vic] It's not been very long
for the Creed Brothers,

500
00:28:37,248 --> 00:28:40,385
but they have never been taken…

501
00:28:40,452 --> 00:28:42,921
They've never taken this much punishment
in a matchup.

502
00:28:42,987 --> 00:28:44,923
They've never been taken to this limit.

503
00:28:44,989 --> 00:28:46,391
[Wade] That could be it right now.

504
00:28:46,458 --> 00:28:51,529
Briggs and Jensen looking to advance.
And just breaking things up, Julius Creed.

505
00:28:51,596 --> 00:28:55,266
[Wade] Just in the nick of time
after that huge choke slam,

506
00:28:55,333 --> 00:28:58,870
but immediately back in is Brooks Jensen,
cleaning house.

507
00:28:58,937 --> 00:29:02,707
-Now, Josh Briggs has the opportunity…
-[Vic] Did you see the rail bend?

508
00:29:02,774 --> 00:29:05,944
[Wade] It's bent. That's solid steel.

509
00:29:06,010 --> 00:29:09,047
[Vic] From the impact.
And Briggs swings wildly.

510
00:29:09,114 --> 00:29:12,283
Malcolm Bivens,
he's got to be thanking his lucky stars.

511
00:29:12,350 --> 00:29:14,986
Tag was made. Briggs didn't realize it.

512
00:29:15,053 --> 00:29:19,157
Certainly realizes it now as Julius Creed,
the legal superstar.

513
00:29:19,224 --> 00:29:21,259
And look at this tag team offense.

514
00:29:21,326 --> 00:29:22,727
[Wade] Effortless strength

515
00:29:22,794 --> 00:29:26,164
and power combined
with an unnecessary clothesline.

516
00:29:26,231 --> 00:29:27,999
-[Vic] Into the cover.
-[audience] One! Two! Three!

517
00:29:28,066 --> 00:29:31,369
-Creed Brothers. First team to advance.
-[bell ringing]

518
00:29:32,237 --> 00:29:36,007
[Alicia] The winners, the Creed Brothers.

519
00:29:36,074 --> 00:29:40,044
[Vic] What an absolute banger
of a tag team match.

520
00:29:40,111 --> 00:29:43,448
[Wade] The entire arena on their feet,
rightly so.

521
00:29:43,515 --> 00:29:46,384
These Creeds are legit.
They are the real deal.

522
00:29:46,451 --> 00:29:50,188
Hats off to Briggs and Jensen,
stepping up to a whole new level.

523
00:29:50,255 --> 00:29:52,123
That was something special.

524
00:29:52,190 --> 00:29:54,025
["All Rise" playing]

525
00:29:54,759 --> 00:29:59,731
[Vic] NXT universe on their feet
after this tag team matchup.

526
00:29:59,798 --> 00:30:03,368
Look, Briggs and Jensen,
they're in control for most of it.

527
00:30:03,434 --> 00:30:07,005
Briggs is so close to advancing his team.

528
00:30:07,071 --> 00:30:12,243
And look, Malcolm Bivens
was absolutely relieved at that moment.

529
00:30:12,310 --> 00:30:16,114
But here's the turning point.
Take a look at the bend,

530
00:30:16,181 --> 00:30:20,318
that steel bending
from the force from Julius Creed,

531
00:30:20,385 --> 00:30:22,787
and in the end,
here's an innovative offense.

532
00:30:22,854 --> 00:30:26,791
[Wade] What a performance.
Just shear humanity getting thrown around.

533
00:30:26,858 --> 00:30:27,826
[Vic] Wham!

534
00:30:27,892 --> 00:30:31,496
[Wade] Josh Briggs,
one of the biggest athletes in NXT,

535
00:30:31,563 --> 00:30:35,366
getting slammed down easily by the Creeds.

536
00:30:35,433 --> 00:30:37,368
What a matchup.

537
00:30:37,435 --> 00:30:39,804
[Vic] It was your pick, Wade,
the Creed Brothers,

538
00:30:39,871 --> 00:30:42,640
they advance to the semi-finals.

539
00:30:42,707 --> 00:30:46,945
And let's take a look at an updated
Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic bracket.

540
00:30:47,011 --> 00:30:51,716
There you see the Creed Brothers
etching their name in the semi-finals.

541
00:30:51,783 --> 00:30:53,985
Who will they face?
Either Grizzled Young Veterans

542
00:30:54,052 --> 00:30:57,622
or will be Andre Chase University?

543
00:30:57,689 --> 00:31:02,660
Are we looking at this year's
Dusty Rhodes Classic Champions?

[upbeat music playing]

546
00:31:09,267 --> 00:31:12,537
Four months ago,
when NXT 2.0 first launched,

547
00:31:12,604 --> 00:31:15,607
I was one of many superstars
getting an opportunity

548
00:31:15,673 --> 00:31:17,342
to prove themselves.

549
00:31:17,408 --> 00:31:22,180
I became the first Singaporean
stepped inside the WWE ring

550
00:31:22,247 --> 00:31:24,549
and I made my debut September last year.

551
00:31:24,616 --> 00:31:27,652
[Vic] What a debut for Dante Chen.

552
00:31:28,119 --> 00:31:30,321
But the reason you haven't seen me since,

553
00:31:30,388 --> 00:31:33,024
it's because of a leg injury
put me out of action.

554
00:31:34,125 --> 00:31:37,462
It has been difficult watching my peers
find success

555
00:31:38,596 --> 00:31:42,367
and be involved in events
like Halloween Havoc, WarGames,

556
00:31:42,433 --> 00:31:43,968
and New Year's Evil

557
00:31:44,035 --> 00:31:46,004
because I have to watch them
from the sidelines.

558
00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:49,574
My father would tell me to keep pushing
so that he can see his son on TV again.

559
00:31:50,942 --> 00:31:53,211
Two months ago, I lost my father.

560
00:31:54,946 --> 00:31:57,115
He was my biggest fan and mentor in life.

561
00:31:57,181 --> 00:31:59,651
While he got to see his son's debut match,

562
00:32:00,118 --> 00:32:02,587
I have plenty more matches
for him to watch.

563
00:32:02,654 --> 00:32:05,390
I've been working hard
on this road to recovery.

564
00:32:05,456 --> 00:32:07,759
I've never been more tested in my life.

565
00:32:08,559 --> 00:32:11,596
I've got a whole country to represent
and a father to make proud.

566
00:32:12,430 --> 00:32:13,865
As of today, I'm back,

567
00:32:14,565 --> 00:32:17,902

is ready to compete.

he has been counting down the days

-to make this return.
-[Wade] Absolutely.

of the big-time in NXT four months ago

before being brutally struck down
by injury.

I got to bring this up
right out of the gate,

603
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,236
will Chen be questioning himself
with that lower leg injury

604
00:34:32,303 --> 00:34:33,237
in this return match?

605
00:34:33,304 --> 00:34:35,706
-You can see the brace on the right knee.
-[Wade] I can speak to that.

I had a few injuries during my career,
some surgeries.

You cannot all implicate match speed,
match intensity…

608

[Vic] Cover by Raaj and a quick kick out.

609
00:34:45,116 --> 00:34:48,586
…with rehab, all the rehab in the world
isn't gonna replicate that.

Simply never know how a repaired body part
is going to respond,

611
00:34:52,423 --> 00:34:56,461
and that absolutely is going to be playing
on the mind of Dante Chen right now.

in this matchup

since he's been in rehabbing.

right now with that dive to the outside,

we could've been one of those teams

638
00:36:30,354 --> 00:36:33,524
who advanced to the semi-finals
of the Dusty Cup.

639
00:36:33,591 --> 00:36:37,662
That could've been us. I'm not mad at you.

Disappointed we won't have an opportunity
to have our names on that cup,

643
00:36:49,907 --> 00:36:53,878
but times like these are opportunities
for growth and development.

644
00:36:53,945 --> 00:36:58,382
Hold on. You don't actually believe
the words coming out your mouth right now

645
00:36:58,449 --> 00:37:00,351
or do you know you're full of crap?

646
00:37:00,418 --> 00:37:04,221
Mr. Jones, thank you.
Thank you for your feedback.

647
00:37:04,288 --> 00:37:06,190
I will take that under advisement,

648
00:37:06,257 --> 00:37:11,162
but how are you doing
after your unfortunate accident?

00:37:11,229 --> 00:37:12,763
Oh, this?

650
00:37:12,830 --> 00:37:17,034
Little training injury, sprained knee.
I'll be back on a couple weeks.

651
00:37:17,101 --> 00:37:22,306
Well, good luck with your rehab.
Please, allow me.

652
00:37:24,308 --> 00:37:25,376
Thanks.

654
00:37:30,915 --> 00:37:37,788
Harland, you can't allow negativity
to spread like wildfire.

655
00:37:38,189 --> 00:37:44,228
Having the strength to face it
is the true measure of progress.

656
00:37:53,871 --> 00:37:57,141
[Vic] I don't necessarily know
what Joe Gacy just said to Harland,

657
00:37:57,208 --> 00:38:01,212
but I also don't know
what's on the mind of Tony D'Angelo

658
00:38:01,279 --> 00:38:04,081
as we're about to witness
the Pete Dunne memorial service

659
00:38:04,148 --> 00:38:07,184
conducted by D'Angelo next.

so find your fit.

661
00:38:18,863 --> 00:38:22,466
NXT Shop, yeah, it's like that.

662
00:38:24,235 --> 00:38:25,436
Welcome back to NXT.

663
00:38:25,503 --> 00:38:27,972
I'm now joined
by the NXT Champion Bron Breakker.

664
00:38:28,039 --> 00:38:32,043
Bron, I have to ask. Has it set in yet,
Bron Breakker, NXT Champion?

665
00:38:32,109 --> 00:38:35,446
It has. It's been my goal
since I've stepped foot in the door here,

666
00:38:35,513 --> 00:38:39,116
and I understand the responsibilities
that come with it but I'm ready.

667
00:38:39,183 --> 00:38:42,420
What about the brief interaction
you had last week with Santos Escobar?

668
00:38:42,486 --> 00:38:44,655
Santos Escobar is a great performer.

669
00:38:44,722 --> 00:38:47,758
He's a former champion
but him, just like everybody else,

-Bron Breakker.

671
00:38:54,031 --> 00:38:55,633
NXT Champion,

672
00:38:55,700 --> 00:38:58,869
one of the fastest-rising stars
in the history.

I'm not interested.

You don't have to be interested in her,
cabron.

676
00:39:08,813 --> 00:39:13,084
Now as for Santos Escobar,
now that's a different story.

You might have become el campeon…

678

but you're not ready
to carry this brand on your shoulder.

00:39:27,365 --> 00:39:32,103

with that championship around my waist.

Dearly beloved, we gather here today

692

to celebrate the career
of "the Bruiserweight" Pete Poppins.

693
00:40:28,092 --> 00:40:34,432
Pete Poppins was a pigheaded man
and he didn't listen to nobody.

[audience] What?

695
00:40:36,100 --> 00:40:40,538
So he needed to be taught a lesson
by me, Tony D.

[audience] What?

697
00:40:42,306 --> 00:40:45,042
And I tried and I tried,

698
00:40:45,109 --> 00:40:47,278

to learn a lesson the hard way.

706
00:41:08,632 --> 00:41:13,304
I don't think anybody in here
wants to see Pete

right across his thick skull.

00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:02,246
I won three weightlifting gold medal
at the 2019 World Cup.

826
00:48:02,312 --> 00:48:05,649
I was in the process
to go to Olympic games,

827
00:48:05,716 --> 00:48:08,218
but I choose to follow my dreams.

828
00:48:08,285 --> 00:48:12,055
We are two badass women.

829
00:48:12,122 --> 00:48:15,492
We fight hard and we play hot.

830
00:48:17,828 --> 00:48:21,498
We are from different countries
and we have different backgrounds.

831
00:48:22,165 --> 00:48:26,970
[in Brazilian]

832
00:48:27,037 --> 00:48:30,874
[in Brazilian]

833
00:48:30,941 --> 00:48:35,479
-Welcome to our jungle, baby.
-Welcome to our jungle, baby.

834
00:48:39,016 --> 00:48:42,052
Well ladies, an impressive resume,
but it's Dusty Cup season.

835
00:48:42,119 --> 00:48:45,522
How excited are you to be competing
in the Tag Team Classic this year?

836
00:48:45,589 --> 00:48:49,026
-McKenzie, we are so excited!
-Woo!

837
00:48:49,092 --> 00:48:51,862
This is the opportunity
we have been waiting for.

838
00:48:51,929 --> 00:48:56,733
-Welcome to…
-[Dakota Kai laughing]

839
00:48:57,267 --> 00:49:00,804
This is adorable. [chuckling]

840
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:05,709
Yeah. Okay. I'll give them a heads-up.

841
00:49:05,776 --> 00:49:09,146
Hey, ladies,
let me give you some advice, all right?

842
00:49:09,579 --> 00:49:14,117
Nothing divides friendship
more than success.

843
00:49:14,184 --> 00:49:15,319
No manches.

844
00:49:15,385 --> 00:49:18,355
What is with you thinking?
Our friendship will last.

845
00:49:18,422 --> 00:49:19,790
What's your problem?

846
00:49:19,856 --> 00:49:23,627
[laughs] I'll make you a problem.
How about that, huh? Yeah?

847
00:49:23,694 --> 00:49:26,730
Nothing is going to happen to her,
mi amor.

848
00:49:26,797 --> 00:49:30,934
[laughs] Okay.
I see that you are pumped up.

849
00:49:31,668 --> 00:49:35,472
All right. How about we see about that
later on tonight?

850
00:49:35,539 --> 00:49:39,076
Looking forward to it, mi nina.

851
00:49:40,310 --> 00:49:41,678
Bye.

852
00:49:41,745 --> 00:49:47,818
[chuckles] Yes, Mac. Can I help you?

853
00:49:49,553 --> 00:49:51,221
["Venom" playing]

854
00:49:51,288 --> 00:49:52,289
[bell ringing]

855
00:49:52,356 --> 00:49:55,092
[Alicia] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

856
00:49:55,158 --> 00:49:59,830
Making her way to the ring, Kay Lee Ray.

857
00:49:59,896 --> 00:50:01,631
[Vic] It's a busy time for Kay Lee Ray.

858
00:50:01,698 --> 00:50:06,403
Wade, let's go back
to what transpired last week on NXT.

859
00:50:10,340 --> 00:50:16,013
She can show up to do photo shoots,
but she can't show up to defend the title.

860
00:50:19,316 --> 00:50:23,487
She thinks she's so perfect,
doesn't she? [laughs]

861
00:50:23,887 --> 00:50:26,156
[objects clattering]

862
00:50:26,223 --> 00:50:29,593
Everything is perfect for Mandy.

863
00:50:30,327 --> 00:50:32,929
How about you take a photo of this?

864
00:50:33,363 --> 00:50:35,399
[crashing and smashing]

865
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:37,501
[Vic] Are you talking about a smasher?

866
00:50:37,567 --> 00:50:40,003
Ms. Kay Lee Ray's set to compete
against Ivy Nile.

867
00:50:40,070 --> 00:50:44,141
I wonder what does Mandy Rose think
of that destruction.

868
00:50:44,207 --> 00:50:46,777
That's who the message was sent to.
Directly to the champion.

869
00:50:46,843 --> 00:50:50,047
Let me talk. The only thing going
through Mandy Rose's mind right now

870
00:50:50,113 --> 00:50:52,582
is what time
is her next mani-pedi appointment.

871
00:50:52,649 --> 00:50:55,585
In fact, she might be focused
on some extra training

872
00:50:55,652 --> 00:50:57,954
seeing as the women's Royal Rumble
is coming up.

873
00:50:58,021 --> 00:51:03,960
Can you imagine, Toxic A stunned,
pointing in unison at the WrestleMania.

874
00:51:04,027 --> 00:51:06,463
[Vic] I bet you wouldn't sleep for a week
if that happened.

875
00:51:06,530 --> 00:51:07,964
[Wade] It will be on repeat at my house.

876
00:51:08,031 --> 00:51:11,501
[Vic] Back to the matchup at hand.
It is Nile, it is Kay Lee Ray.

877
00:51:11,568 --> 00:51:13,336
This is a tough test tonight
for Kay Lee Ray.

878
00:51:13,403 --> 00:51:14,504
[Wade] Absolutely.

879
00:51:14,571 --> 00:51:18,341
Listen, Kay Lee Ray has been in there
with some of the absolute best,

880
00:51:18,408 --> 00:51:20,077
but Nile is undefeated.

881
00:51:20,143 --> 00:51:23,313
She's never been really tested in the ring
thus far.

882
00:51:23,380 --> 00:51:24,247
That's how good she is

883
00:51:24,314 --> 00:51:27,851
and how high above the competitions
she's been so far.

884
00:51:27,918 --> 00:51:32,089
We really don't know
just how good Ivy Nile really is,

885
00:51:32,155 --> 00:51:34,991
but we know all about Kay Lee Ray,
veteran competitor,

886
00:51:35,459 --> 00:51:40,096
former NXT UK Women's Champion,
a.k.a. "The Forever Champion".

887
00:51:40,163 --> 00:51:41,698
[Vic] A great transition by Nile,

888
00:51:41,765 --> 00:51:43,834
and Malcolm Bivens on the outside
all smiles.

889
00:51:43,900 --> 00:51:45,869
As the smile may have gone away
from his face.

890
00:51:45,936 --> 00:51:49,172
It has been a big night thus far
for Diamond Mine.

891
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:52,342
Creed Brothers advancing
to round two of the Dusty Cup.

892
00:51:52,409 --> 00:51:56,313
And right now, though, Ivy Nile
is having it taken to her by Kay Lee Ray.

893
00:51:56,379 --> 00:51:58,448
-Into the cover. Nile, able to kick out.
-Two!

894
00:51:58,515 --> 00:52:00,150
[Vic] But all joking aside, Wade,

895
00:52:00,217 --> 00:52:04,955
you don't think Mandy Rose is worried
about Kay Lee Ray, of KLR?

896
00:52:05,021 --> 00:52:07,224
[Wade] Worried isn't the right… Listen.

897
00:52:07,290 --> 00:52:08,291
[audience chanting]

898
00:52:08,358 --> 00:52:13,463
[Wade] You thought that Mandy Rose
was worried about Raquel Gonzales.

899
00:52:13,530 --> 00:52:15,265
Guess what? She beat Raquel Gonzales.

900
00:52:15,332 --> 00:52:17,968
You thought Mandy Rose
would be worried about Cora Jade.

901
00:52:18,034 --> 00:52:20,270
Guess what? She beat Cora Jade.

902
00:52:20,337 --> 00:52:24,875
Let me be clear.
Mandy Rose is the attraction in NXT.

903
00:52:24,941 --> 00:52:27,477
She's the reason people tune in.

904
00:52:27,544 --> 00:52:29,779
Don't worry about the competition.
They'll all fall.

905
00:52:29,846 --> 00:52:32,048
[Vic] Ivy Nile off the enzuigiri,
into the cover,

906
00:52:32,115 --> 00:52:34,384
and a kick out by Kay Lee Ray.

907
00:52:34,451 --> 00:52:36,353
Let's look at what's going on at hand
right now

908
00:52:36,419 --> 00:52:39,556
as Malcolm Bivens excited
for what Ivy Nile is doing right now.

909
00:52:39,623 --> 00:52:43,126
Ivy Nile has never competed
against a superstar like Kay Lee Ray.

910
00:52:43,193 --> 00:52:46,429
[Wade] Of course, she hasn't. Kay Lee Ray
has a massive amount of experience,

911
00:52:46,496 --> 00:52:48,198
15 years plus at this point.

912
00:52:48,265 --> 00:52:51,468
She's been in huge spotlights
like the WarGames matchup.

913
00:52:51,535 --> 00:52:54,771
She's been winning championships
around the world.

914
00:52:54,838 --> 00:52:59,109
Nile can overcome all of that
despite the gulf in experience,

915
00:52:59,176 --> 00:53:01,611
and it's all thanks to the training
in the Diamond Mine.

916
00:53:01,678 --> 00:53:03,914
Working alongside the likes of the Creeds,

917
00:53:03,980 --> 00:53:06,249
working alongside
the likes of Roderick Strong,

918
00:53:06,316 --> 00:53:10,086
and, of course, with her career
guided by the mastermind, Bivens.

919
00:53:10,153 --> 00:53:14,624
Look how she is now,
dominating the scary queen of Scots.

920
00:53:14,691 --> 00:53:18,695
[Vic] Nile now is certainly in control
of this matchup as Kay Lee Ray,

921
00:53:18,762 --> 00:53:21,031
you talked
about the championship Pedigree,

922
00:53:21,097 --> 00:53:26,603
certainly going to be tested here tonight
as Nile, one more time trying to hold on.

923
00:53:26,670 --> 00:53:30,540
And unique counter by Kay Lee Ray.

924
00:53:30,607 --> 00:53:34,544
[Wade] Kay Lee Ray managed to get out,
but how much damage has been done though?

925
00:53:34,611 --> 00:53:38,715
[Vic] Talked to Kay Lee Ray earlier.
She said she respects for Ivy Nile

926
00:53:38,782 --> 00:53:40,417
on what she has accomplished
in such a short time.

927
00:53:40,483 --> 00:53:44,054
Also said, she's looking forward
to rooting for fellows Scot, Doudrop,

928
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:46,990
who faces Becky Lynch
for the Raw women's title

929
00:53:47,057 --> 00:53:49,759
at the Royal Rumble
a week from this Saturday.

930
00:53:49,826 --> 00:53:51,294
Into the cover for Kay Lee Ray.

931
00:53:51,361 --> 00:53:55,599
Hooks the inside leg,
and able to kick out was Ivy Nile.

932
00:53:55,665 --> 00:53:57,467
[Wade] Cannot wait
for the women's Royal Rumble.

933
00:53:57,534 --> 00:53:59,936
My opinion,
Becky Lynch is the best on the planet.

934
00:54:00,003 --> 00:54:01,871
Doudrop needs to bring her A-game.

935
00:54:01,938 --> 00:54:05,208
To be honest, she's started doing
exactly that last night on Raw.

936
00:54:05,275 --> 00:54:08,411
[Vic] Right now, Ivy Nile looking
to bring her A-game to this matchup.

937
00:54:08,478 --> 00:54:11,781
Oh, nice… I was going to say nice kick,

938
00:54:11,848 --> 00:54:15,752
but Ivy Nile certainly has continued
to evolve her game.

939
00:54:15,819 --> 00:54:18,054
-[Wade] Modified leg DDT.
-[Vic] Into the cover.

940
00:54:18,121 --> 00:54:21,024
Will this put away Kay Lee Ray?
And another near-fall.

941
00:54:21,091 --> 00:54:24,928
Would you consider this an upset
if Ivy Nile were able to win?

942
00:54:24,995 --> 00:54:28,865
[Wade] Let's be honest. This will be
an upset, but with moves like that,

943
00:54:28,932 --> 00:54:32,002
she is getting closer and closer
to shocking the world.

944
00:54:32,068 --> 00:54:36,139
You know for a fact that Malcolm Bivens
is loving every second of this,

945
00:54:36,206 --> 00:54:39,676
because he smells money with Ivy Nile.
Quite rightly so.

946
00:54:39,743 --> 00:54:41,978
[Vic] I'm talking about the tough test
for both these women.

947
00:54:42,045 --> 00:54:46,383
This certainly is a premiere battle
here this week on NXT.

948
00:54:46,449 --> 00:54:48,318
[Wade] Superkick was a game-changer.

949
00:54:48,385 --> 00:54:52,155
[Vic] And now Kay Lee Ray looking
for the KLR Bomb to put Nile away.

950
00:54:52,222 --> 00:54:54,457
[Wade] Nile clearly having it scouted,
though.

951
00:54:54,524 --> 00:54:56,926
[Vic] Whoa, wait a minute.
There's Mandy Rose.

952
00:54:56,993 --> 00:54:59,296
You asked for it.
You're talking a little trash.

953
00:54:59,362 --> 00:55:02,332
You have to imagine the champion
is going to come out at some point.

954
00:55:02,399 --> 00:55:06,136
Kay Lee Ray again
looking for the KLR Bomb. Can she connect?

955
00:55:06,202 --> 00:55:10,040
Rolling through. Shoulders are down,
center of the ring. Nile.

956
00:55:10,106 --> 00:55:11,775
-[bell ringing]
-[audience cheering]

957
00:55:11,841 --> 00:55:13,209
[Vic] Wow.

958
00:55:13,677 --> 00:55:16,179
[Alicia] Here is your winner, Ivy Nile.

959
00:55:16,246 --> 00:55:17,747
[Wade] What a shocker.

960
00:55:17,814 --> 00:55:19,749
-[Vic] Wait a minute.
-[Wade] Okay.

961
00:55:19,816 --> 00:55:24,487
[Vic] The women's champion, Mandy Rose.
Yeah, you said she wasn't worried, Wade.

962
00:55:24,554 --> 00:55:26,656
What's this look like?
She's certainly worried.

963
00:55:26,723 --> 00:55:28,425
[Wade] Listen, you turn up

964
00:55:28,491 --> 00:55:31,828
and you smash up
Mandy Rose's photo shoot location,

965
00:55:31,895 --> 00:55:34,898
there will be a price to pay,
but it might be backfiring right now.

966
00:55:34,964 --> 00:55:36,399
[Vic] There's the rest
of Toxic Attraction.

967
00:55:36,466 --> 00:55:37,567
[Wade] Here comes the cavalry.

968
00:55:37,634 --> 00:55:42,806
[Vic] The NXT Women's Tag Team Champion,
Gigi Dolin, Jayne, out here now.

969
00:55:42,872 --> 00:55:44,474
The numbers advantage.

970
00:55:44,941 --> 00:55:46,276
[Wade] Oh!

971
00:55:46,343 --> 00:55:48,845
-Prop her up. Prop her up.
-[screams]

972
00:55:48,912 --> 00:55:50,346
[audience cheering]

973
00:55:50,413 --> 00:55:53,083
[Vic] There's Mandy Rose
telling the troops…

974
00:55:53,149 --> 00:55:54,417
[Wade] The hell is this?

975
00:55:55,051 --> 00:55:58,054
-[Vic] Hartwell and Pirotta.
-[Wade] What's it got to do with them?

976
00:55:58,121 --> 00:56:00,790
[Vic] Persia Pirotta,
Indi Hartwell evening the odds.

977
00:56:00,857 --> 00:56:04,461
[Wade] Sticking their nose
where it doesn't belong.

978
00:56:04,527 --> 00:56:07,931
[Vic] What do you mean? They have beef
with the NXT Women's Tag Team Champions.

979
00:56:07,997 --> 00:56:09,666
[Wade] Jealousy's more like.

980
00:56:10,900 --> 00:56:14,404
[Vic] Hartwell's taking care of business.
So is Pirotta.

981
00:56:14,871 --> 00:56:16,806
[Wade] Jayne's in a world of trouble.

982
00:56:16,873 --> 00:56:20,744
This has backfired in the worst way
for Toxic Attraction.

983
00:56:20,810 --> 00:56:25,281
[Vic] Oh! Talking about in your face.
Boom!

984
00:56:25,348 --> 00:56:27,984
[audience shouting indistinctly]

985
00:56:28,051 --> 00:56:31,054
[Vic] Tasting your own medicine
to Toxic Attraction.

986
00:56:31,588 --> 00:56:36,726

987
00:56:36,793 --> 00:56:38,228
What the hell?

988
00:56:38,294 --> 00:56:40,663
We are going to be the champion.

989
00:56:40,730 --> 00:56:42,499
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

990
00:56:42,565 --> 00:56:46,236
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-You can't get up, huh?

991
00:56:46,302 --> 00:56:47,570
Be careful.

992
00:56:49,272 --> 00:56:53,309
-[Odyssey groaning]
-Just relax. Put it down, Harland.

993
00:56:53,376 --> 00:56:57,013
-Put it down.
-Harland, get out. Get out!

994
00:56:57,080 --> 00:56:59,716
[Odyssey's continuous groaning]

995
00:56:59,783 --> 00:57:01,317
Just breathe, all right?

996
00:57:03,186 --> 00:57:06,156
[Odyssey] That's my knee.
Something's wrong with my knee.

997
00:57:06,723 --> 00:57:10,226
-Get somebody. Get somebody.
-Breathe. Breathe, Odyssey.

998
00:57:13,863 --> 00:57:15,231

[in Japanese]

1008
00:58:07,450 --> 00:58:11,621
Inside the ring,
I am the Warrior of the Sun,

1009
00:58:11,688 --> 00:58:15,692
but outside, I am just Sarray,
and that's okay.

1010
00:58:15,758 --> 00:58:18,962
Now, I will return back to America

1011
00:58:19,028 --> 00:58:23,500
and NXT with a new passion and energy.

1012
00:58:23,566 --> 00:58:25,168
[music fades]

1013
00:58:27,937 --> 00:58:31,908
[Vic] NXT universe can't wait
for the return of Sarray.

1014
00:58:33,476 --> 00:58:34,377
[bell ringing]

1015
00:58:34,444 --> 00:58:36,346
[Alicia] The following
is a first-round match

1016
00:58:36,412 --> 00:58:38,982
to the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.

1017
00:58:39,048 --> 00:58:44,120
Making their way to the ring,
Legado Del Fantasma.

1018
00:58:44,754 --> 00:58:48,024
-[Vic] The second first-round matchup…
-[Wade] No, stop it.

1019
00:58:48,091 --> 00:58:51,928
You just stop right there,
because I need to make something clear.

1020
00:58:51,995 --> 00:58:55,398
I told you and I told everyone else
around the world

1021
00:58:55,465 --> 00:58:59,269
that nothing,
nothing is stronger than La Familia.

1022
00:58:59,335 --> 00:59:03,573
All of the naysayers, all of the doubters,
including you Vicky Joe, you got it wrong.

1023
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:08,378
Last week, Elektra Lopez
put Xyon Quinn in his place.

1024
00:59:08,444 --> 00:59:14,284
Let's face it.
Legado Del Fantasma still run the bingo.

1025
00:59:14,350 --> 00:59:16,386
Before you start,
if you got any more dumb questions,

1026
00:59:16,452 --> 00:59:18,288
you wanna get out of the way.

1027
00:59:18,354 --> 00:59:20,456
[Vic] Legado Del Fantasma
is going to advance tonight?

1028
00:59:21,724 --> 00:59:25,194
[Wade] Of course.
Are Legado going to advance tonight?

1029
00:59:25,261 --> 00:59:30,033
You always seem to cease me, Vicky Joe.

1030
00:59:30,099 --> 00:59:31,701
Always taking shots.

1031
00:59:31,768 --> 00:59:33,703
-Always being a doubting Thomas.
-[Vic] It was a question.

1032
00:59:33,770 --> 00:59:35,738
[Wade] Just watch and learn right now.

1033
00:59:35,805 --> 00:59:39,175
Legado Del Fantasma
have everything in control

1034
00:59:39,242 --> 00:59:41,244
against a pair of rookies tonight.

1035
00:59:41,311 --> 00:59:44,981
[Vic] They believe that being Enofe
and Blade, they are far from rookies.

1036
00:59:45,048 --> 00:59:46,883
[Wade] Okay, I admire their confidence.

1037
00:59:46,950 --> 00:59:50,853
I admire their swagger, their attitude,
but then reality hits, doesn't it?

1038
00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:56,326
Listen, Legado Del Fantasma have
a combined 30 years in-ring experience.

1039
00:59:56,893 --> 00:59:59,662
I'm sorry, lad. Thanks for coming.

1040
00:59:59,729 --> 01:00:02,332
Congratulations
on getting into the competition.

1041
01:00:02,398 --> 01:00:05,001
It ends tonight.
"You are rookies in this match."

1042
01:00:05,068 --> 01:00:06,769
[Vic] As we mentioned,
this is a quarterfinal matchup,

1043
01:00:06,836 --> 01:00:09,339
and it was Enofe and Blade,
who were in control of the match,

1044
01:00:09,405 --> 01:00:12,008
as Enofe just chugged himself
into the matchup,

1045
01:00:12,075 --> 01:00:16,045
defeated Harland and Gacy last week
to earn a spot in the tournament.

1046
01:00:16,112 --> 01:00:17,513
Now looking to advance, and a kick out.

1047
01:00:17,580 --> 01:00:19,816
[Wade] Yeah, listen,
that was a Pyrrhic victory last week.

1048
01:00:19,882 --> 01:00:20,917
They won by default,

1049
01:00:20,984 --> 01:00:23,920
because Harland could not control himself
and got disqualified.

1050
01:00:23,987 --> 01:00:27,790
Well, now, unfortunately,
they are in way over their heads.

1051
01:00:27,857 --> 01:00:30,360
It's a great achievement
to tell your family about.

1052
01:00:30,426 --> 01:00:34,030
You were in the Dusty Cup proper,
but don't get carried away.

1053
01:00:34,097 --> 01:00:36,899
[Vic] Oh, another cover to advance
to the second round,

1054
01:00:36,966 --> 01:00:39,068
and a kick out again by…

1055
01:00:39,135 --> 01:00:40,837
Hey, look, if you're so pro-Legado,

1056
01:00:40,903 --> 01:00:43,072
then why didn't you pick them
to win the tournament tag,

1057
01:00:43,973 --> 01:00:46,175
-Mr. Creed Brothers?
-[Wade] Why didn't I pick Legado?

1058
01:00:46,242 --> 01:00:49,012
[Vic] Yeah. You're so pro out here saying,
"I told you this, and this."

1059
01:00:49,078 --> 01:00:50,847
-Why didn't you pick Legado?
-[Wade] I picked the Creeds.

1060
01:00:50,913 --> 01:00:54,283
Why don't you pick a team?
Who's your pick, wise guy, huh?

1061
01:00:54,350 --> 01:00:55,251
Who are you picking?

1062
01:00:55,318 --> 01:00:58,154
[Vic] I'm a broadcast journalist.
I don't make the picks, I ask you.

1063
01:00:58,221 --> 01:01:00,423
[Wade] You are absolutely
not a journalist, first of all.

1064
01:01:00,490 --> 01:01:03,693
[Vic] Cover by Mendoza, hook to the leg
to get to the semis, another kick-out.

1065
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:05,962
[Wade] Do not try and drive a wedge

1066
01:01:06,029 --> 01:01:08,898
between Wade Barrett
and Legado Del Fantasma.

1067
01:01:08,965 --> 01:01:11,768
I am a huge admirer
of the two men in the ring,

1068
01:01:11,834 --> 01:01:14,604
Santos Escobar,
and of course, Elektra Lopez.

1069
01:01:14,671 --> 01:01:17,240
-[Vic] He benches.
-[Wade] Maybe they would be my 1B.

1070
01:01:17,306 --> 01:01:19,709
If the Creeds are 1A,
for my picks, they would be 1B.

1071
01:01:19,776 --> 01:01:22,078
-[Vic] Who's your 1C?
-[Wade] Probably Grizzled Young Veterans.

1072
01:01:22,145 --> 01:01:23,646
[Vice]
Oh, so you're just going to have 1D, E,

1073
01:01:23,713 --> 01:01:26,315
and now you've just picked the whole field
by the end of the day.

1074
01:01:26,382 --> 01:01:29,018
Again, I'm a broadcast journalist,
I don't make picks.

1075
01:01:29,085 --> 01:01:31,521
-[Wade] You're not a broadcast journalist.
-[Vic] Mendoza… Oh!

1076
01:01:31,587 --> 01:01:33,923
Charging in, nobody home.

1077
01:01:33,990 --> 01:01:37,293
It's now Enofe trying to make a tag,
desperately needs one,

1078
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:40,029
and Mendoza
wisely able to cut the ring back off.

1079
01:01:40,096 --> 01:01:43,299
[Wade] This is what a veteran does,
Raul Mendoza is in complete control.

1080
01:01:43,366 --> 01:01:44,767
[Vic] You mentioned Santos Escobar,

1081
01:01:44,834 --> 01:01:48,271
he's certainly put his focus
on Bron Breakker and the NXT title.

1082
01:01:48,337 --> 01:01:50,273
-[Wade] Of course. It's about time.
-[Vic] Tag.

1083
01:01:50,339 --> 01:01:54,911
[Wade] Santos Escobar just sheer quality
and absolutely championship caliber.

1084
01:01:54,977 --> 01:01:56,879
[Vic] Now, Blade tagging back in,

1085
01:01:56,946 --> 01:02:00,183
and it's Blade and Enofe
first looking to focus on the Dusty Cup.

1086
01:02:00,249 --> 01:02:02,652
Been looking
at championship gold of their own.

1087
01:02:02,719 --> 01:02:05,388
Again, the winner
of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic

1088
01:02:05,455 --> 01:02:10,393
earns a guaranteed opportunity
at the NXT Tag Team Championships.

1089
01:02:10,460 --> 01:02:11,861
Now on the outside.

1090
01:02:11,928 --> 01:02:12,795
[audience cheering]

1091
01:02:12,862 --> 01:02:16,032
Santos Escobar sticking his nose
where it doesn't belong.

1092
01:02:16,099 --> 01:02:18,701
[Wade] Oh, come off it.
At least that was a moment away.

1093
01:02:19,302 --> 01:02:21,571
-Santos Escobar getting…
-[Vic] Tag was made.

1094
01:02:21,637 --> 01:02:23,673
[Wade] …ejected from ringside
by this referee.

1095
01:02:23,740 --> 01:02:27,143
[Vic] The referee saw what happened.
The referee had to make a decision.

1096
01:02:27,210 --> 01:02:31,347
Whoa. Escobar, right now,
costing his own team.

1097
01:02:31,414 --> 01:02:33,816
[audience cheering]

1098
01:02:33,883 --> 01:02:35,918
[Vic] Speaking of Bron Breakker.

1099
01:02:35,985 --> 01:02:36,886
What are you doing?

1100
01:02:36,953 --> 01:02:38,955
[Vic] NXT champion
making his presence felt.

1101
01:02:39,021 --> 01:02:40,957
[Wade] Escobar is out cold.

1102
01:02:41,023 --> 01:02:43,059
-Face first into the…
-[Vic] We're back into the ring.

1103
01:02:43,559 --> 01:02:46,662
-Blade rolls and… Whoa. Oh!
-[Wade] No.

1104
01:02:46,729 --> 01:02:47,830
[Vic] Bracket busted.

1105
01:02:47,897 --> 01:02:49,298
["Far From a Rookie" playing]

1106
01:02:49,365 --> 01:02:54,270
[Alicia] Here are your winners,
Edris Enofe and Malik Blade.

1107
01:02:54,337 --> 01:02:55,838
[Vic] What were you saying
about the Legado?

1108
01:02:55,905 --> 01:03:00,710
[Wade] I will tell you.
The single worst refereeing performance

1109
01:03:00,777 --> 01:03:03,813
I have seen in 20 years
of this entire industry.

1110
01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:06,482
[Vic] Just like the Dallas Cowboys,
blaming the official.

1111
01:03:06,549 --> 01:03:08,384
Huge win for Enofe and Blade.

1112
01:03:09,752 --> 01:03:13,589
Well, let's go back. I mean, right here,
Santos Escobar, plain as day.

1113
01:03:13,656 --> 01:03:15,024
How can you blame the official?

1114
01:03:15,091 --> 01:03:19,662
The official saw Santos Escobar
interject himself in the match.

1115
01:03:19,729 --> 01:03:25,568
[Wade] Wait a minute,
because this is where we see Bron Breakker

1116
01:03:25,635 --> 01:03:27,503
sticking his nose into business,

1117
01:03:27,570 --> 01:03:31,174
KO-ing Santos Escobar
causing a huge distraction.

1118
01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:33,709
The referee was all fine and dandy
without…

1119
01:03:33,776 --> 01:03:36,679
[Vic] One, two,
and if you filled out your brackets,

1120
01:03:36,746 --> 01:03:40,583
-certainly busted here tonight.
-[Wade] Everyone's bracket is now busted.

1121
01:03:40,650 --> 01:03:43,352
Nobody picked Malik Blade and Edris Enofe.

1122
01:03:43,419 --> 01:03:46,856
[Vic] As you can see, have advanced,
as have the Creed Brothers

1123
01:03:46,923 --> 01:03:51,561
to the semi-finals
of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.

1124
01:03:51,627 --> 01:03:52,461
[Wade] What a shock.

1125
01:03:53,663 --> 01:03:58,234
[Vic] What a shocker, what a feeling
this must be for Enofe and Blade.

1126
01:03:58,301 --> 01:04:00,570
[Wade] It must be Legado Del Fantasma.

1127
01:04:00,636 --> 01:04:05,841
[speaking Spanish]

1128
01:04:05,908 --> 01:04:11,280
-[speaking Spanish]
-You'll never have this. You hear me, man.

1129
01:04:11,347 --> 01:04:14,016
Tonight, Diamond Mine is two-for-two.

1130
01:04:14,083 --> 01:04:18,521
Ivy now has proven
that she can defeat any woman in NXT.

1131
01:04:18,588 --> 01:04:24,060
And the Creed Brothers are one step closer
to winning the Dusty Classic.

1132
01:04:24,126 --> 01:04:26,729
And later tonight,
we will be three-for-three,

1133
01:04:26,796 --> 01:04:29,532
because Roderick Strong,
the leader of Diamond Mine,

1134
01:04:29,599 --> 01:04:33,336
he will wipe the mat
with the leader of the Imperium.

1135
01:04:33,402 --> 01:04:36,005
And, Walter, you put your hands on me.

1136
01:04:36,072 --> 01:04:40,543
But you know what the crazy thing is,
you think that this mat is sacred.

1137
01:04:40,610 --> 01:04:42,044
The mat is not sacred.

1138
01:04:42,111 --> 01:04:45,147
The mat is a revenue generator
for us to get paid,

1139
01:04:45,214 --> 01:04:49,819
so we can move on up
and get that deluxe apartment in the sky.

1140
01:04:50,319 --> 01:04:53,756
Walter, you're big, you're strong,

1141
01:04:53,823 --> 01:04:56,125
you won a bunch of matches in Europe
or whatever,

1142
01:04:56,192 --> 01:05:01,264
but tonight, the mat belongs
to Roderick Strong and Diamond Mine.

1143
01:05:01,330 --> 01:05:02,698
[audience booing]

1144
01:05:02,765 --> 01:05:06,836
[Vic] Huge main event
still to come tonight on NXT.

1145
01:05:09,405 --> 01:05:13,309
Boa, I said I take on whoever shows up,

1146
01:05:13,376 --> 01:05:16,646
but last week,
you took it to the next level.

1147
01:05:18,114 --> 01:05:20,182
I had never been hit
with a firebomb before,

1148
01:05:20,650 --> 01:05:22,118
burned half my face.

1149
01:05:22,952 --> 01:05:26,689
You wanna bring out your ancestral powers,
well, let's go

1150
01:05:26,756 --> 01:05:29,892
because you're not the only one
who can call on his past,

1151
01:05:29,959 --> 01:05:32,895
whose bloodline came from wolves.

1152
01:05:38,634 --> 01:05:44,540
Next week, I don't care where it goes,
the ring, the streets, the locker room,

1153
01:05:44,607 --> 01:05:47,910
bring your battle paint,
because I got mine.

1154
01:05:47,977 --> 01:05:50,813
Next week, we're going to war.

1155
01:05:52,815 --> 01:05:54,317
[music fades]

1156
01:05:55,751 --> 01:06:02,191
[Wade] Man, Boa versus Sikoa next week.
That one is guaranteed to get ugly.

1157
01:06:02,258 --> 01:06:03,626
["Kombat" playing]

1158
01:06:03,693 --> 01:06:04,727
[bell ringing]

1159
01:06:04,794 --> 01:06:07,330
[Alicia] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1160
01:06:07,396 --> 01:06:11,033
Introducing Dakota Kai.

1161
01:06:11,467 --> 01:06:15,638
[Vic] Kai has said for weeks
and even said it again tonight, to Leon,

1162
01:06:15,705 --> 01:06:18,541
"Nothing ruins friendships like success."

1163
01:06:18,607 --> 01:06:21,577
[Wade] It's hard to blame Dakota
for thinking that way.

1164
01:06:21,644 --> 01:06:25,581
Just look back at Dakota's friendship
with Raquel or the ruins of it.

1165
01:06:25,648 --> 01:06:29,652
Perhaps they won last year's
women's Dusty Cup together.

1166
01:06:29,719 --> 01:06:33,255
They were the inaugural
NXT Women's Tag Team Champions.

1167
01:06:33,322 --> 01:06:37,560
Raquel, of course, went on
to win the NXT women's title,

1168
01:06:37,626 --> 01:06:43,366
thanks to Dakota's guidance,
and then Dakota was left in the shadows.

1169
01:06:43,432 --> 01:06:46,669
Now, her life in ruins,
her career in ruins.

1170
01:06:46,736 --> 01:06:49,672
Success can certainly be a poison chalice.

1171
01:06:49,739 --> 01:06:53,109
[Vic] Leon and Feroz,
certainly focusing their attention

1172
01:06:53,175 --> 01:06:57,179
ready to compete
in the Women's Dusty Cup this year,

1173
01:06:57,246 --> 01:06:59,615
which is going to start very soon
here on NXT.

1174
01:06:59,682 --> 01:07:03,386
[Wade] Be very careful what you wish for.
Use Dakota Kai as an example there.

1175
01:07:03,452 --> 01:07:05,554
Last year's winners were Raquel and Kai.

1176
01:07:05,621 --> 01:07:06,956
[Vic] Shoulders down, kick out.

1177
01:07:07,022 --> 01:07:08,357
[Wade] Raquel went
from strength to strength,

1178
01:07:08,424 --> 01:07:12,161
whereas Kai's career and personal life
have just nose-dived ever since.

1179
01:07:12,228 --> 01:07:16,599
[Vic] Let's talk about Dakota Kai.
When is she going to let the past go?

1180
01:07:16,665 --> 01:07:18,000
[Wade] She will let the past go

1181
01:07:18,067 --> 01:07:20,403
when the past stops affecting
her presence.

1182
01:07:20,469 --> 01:07:23,105
She's been on a huge
losing streak of late.

1183
01:07:23,172 --> 01:07:28,344
Let's face it, she should be challenging
for the Women's NXT Championship here.

1184
01:07:28,411 --> 01:07:30,346
She is miles away from that right now.

1185
01:07:30,413 --> 01:07:36,085
[Vic] Feel the impact, boom! Face first.
Dakota Kai able to side-step her opponent.

1186
01:07:36,152 --> 01:07:38,220
Maybe Dakota Kai
just needs to find a hobby.

1187
01:07:38,754 --> 01:07:42,625
[Wade] Dakota Kai needs to learn
how to relax, let the stress go.

1188
01:07:42,691 --> 01:07:45,294
[Vic] Shoots the half, hooks the leg,
is it enough? Kick out.

1189
01:07:45,361 --> 01:07:46,829
[Wade] Do what I do,
wake up in the morning,

1190
01:07:46,896 --> 01:07:48,497
cup of tea, and a game of Wordle.

1191
01:07:48,564 --> 01:07:51,133
-It will set you up for the entire day.
-[Vic] Wordle?

1192
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,270
[Wade] Yeah, I'm nice and relaxed,
aren't I? Calm, cool.

1193
01:07:54,336 --> 01:07:56,639
That's what people say about me.
You should try it.

1194
01:07:56,705 --> 01:07:59,542
-[inaudible] it's gonna be you as well.
-[Wade] It's too difficult for you, pal.

1195
01:07:59,608 --> 01:08:02,378
[Vic] Now Dakota Kai is certainly
in control of this matchup.

1196
01:08:02,445 --> 01:08:05,781
It's been very vocal
in the past recent weeks.

1197
01:08:05,848 --> 01:08:11,087
And look, Dakota Kai becomes very almost
possessed sometimes inside the ring.

1198
01:08:11,153 --> 01:08:13,255
[Wade] Yeah. And this is the problem
with Dakota Kai,

1199
01:08:13,322 --> 01:08:17,960
her inability to control that demon
that seems to be possessing her at times

1200
01:08:18,027 --> 01:08:22,364
and remain focused on the task at hand,
which right now is defeating Yulisa Leon.

1201
01:08:22,431 --> 01:08:24,567
[Vic] Now, the cover, another hook
to the leg, and another kick-out.

1202
01:08:24,633 --> 01:08:27,403
[Wade] And getting her in-ring career
back on track.

1203
01:08:27,470 --> 01:08:31,207
I think Dakota Kai feels slighted as well
from Leon and even Feroz.

1204
01:08:31,273 --> 01:08:32,908
They didn't want her advice
earlier tonight.

1205
01:08:32,975 --> 01:08:35,311
[Wade] Dakota Kai is talking to her
in the ring.

1206
01:08:35,377 --> 01:08:36,912
I have no idea what she's feeling.

1207
01:08:36,979 --> 01:08:40,516
I don't think she has any control
over her abilities right now.

1208
01:08:40,583 --> 01:08:41,784
[audience shouting indistinctly]

1209
01:08:41,851 --> 01:08:43,686
[Vic] A call chat with somebody. Oh!

1210
01:08:43,752 --> 01:08:46,689
[Wade] I can't imagine
she has a cohesive strategy in this match.

1211
01:08:46,755 --> 01:08:50,559
[Vic] Whoa, whoa, whoa. Oh!
Nasty right across the face.

1212
01:08:50,626 --> 01:08:54,330
And that could be the final boot
that puts Dakota Kai back

1213
01:08:54,396 --> 01:08:57,166
in the winning circle,
and another kick out.

1214
01:08:57,233 --> 01:08:59,135
[Wade] That's impressive from Yulisa Leon.

1215
01:08:59,201 --> 01:09:03,472
We're learning a bit about her tonight,
her durability, her desire to win.

1216
01:09:03,539 --> 01:09:07,243
[Vic] Kai was almost surprised and shocked
but Leon firing back.

1217
01:09:07,309 --> 01:09:10,846
[Wade] Clean shot
to the jaw of Dakota Kai, starting to…

1218
01:09:10,913 --> 01:09:14,016
[Vic] Oh, you talk about a clean shot
to the jaw.

1219
01:09:14,083 --> 01:09:17,686
[Wade] With that kick,
talk about durability in itself.

1220
01:09:18,387 --> 01:09:22,057
[Vic] Excuse me.
Dakota Kai again. Look. Oh.

1221
01:09:22,124 --> 01:09:24,260
-Oh, [inaudible].
-Shut up!

1222
01:09:24,326 --> 01:09:25,461
What?

1223
01:09:25,528 --> 01:09:29,598
[Vic] Valentina Feroz now,
interjecting herself. In and out.

1224
01:09:30,466 --> 01:09:33,068
Able to sidestep Kai,
Leon is able to turn things around.

1225
01:09:33,135 --> 01:09:35,804
[Wade] "Are you fully satisfied with this?
Are you okay?"

1226
01:09:35,871 --> 01:09:38,107
[Vic] Feroz firing up
her tag team partner.

1227
01:09:38,174 --> 01:09:41,143
[Wade] Feroz getting involved in the match
and distracting Dakota Kai,

1228
01:09:41,210 --> 01:09:42,211
calling it like it is.

1229
01:09:42,278 --> 01:09:45,514
[Vic] She did distract her, but look,
it's paying off right now for Leon.

1230
01:09:45,581 --> 01:09:48,817
Leon now,
trying to seize her moment tonight.

1231
01:09:48,884 --> 01:09:50,753
[Wade] It's called cheating in my book,
Vic Joseph.

1232
01:09:50,819 --> 01:09:54,189
[Vic] You wouldn't say that about someone
like Legado Del Fantasma moments ago.

1233
01:09:54,256 --> 01:09:59,628
It's Leon showcasing that strength.
Fallaway Slam with the bridge.

1234
01:09:59,695 --> 01:10:01,997
-Cover, kick out. Whoa.
-[audience] Two!

1235
01:10:02,064 --> 01:10:05,501
[Wade] I'll be honest,
that deserved a victory. That was superb.

1236
01:10:06,302 --> 01:10:10,005
[Vic] Listen to the NXT universe
showcasing their appreciation

1237
01:10:10,072 --> 01:10:14,476
for this innovative beauty offense,
but back to live action,

1238
01:10:14,543 --> 01:10:16,545
scorpion kick connected from Kai.

1239
01:10:16,612 --> 01:10:19,882
[Wade] Strength and flexibility
from Yulisa Leon,

1240
01:10:19,949 --> 01:10:23,953
but there is very little you can do
when you get that kick across the face.

1241
01:10:24,019 --> 01:10:26,956
-Cover, count, goodnight.

1243

[Alicia] Here is your winner, Dakota Kai.

1244
01:10:33,862 --> 01:10:37,099
[Vic] Well, you said Dakota Kai
needed to put her past behind her,

1245
01:10:37,166 --> 01:10:40,970
needed to start moving on,
needed to pick up wins.

1246
01:10:41,470 --> 01:10:43,772
Dakota Kai back on her winning ways.

1247
01:10:43,839 --> 01:10:46,775
[Wade] Well, and that,
but she still seems slightly deranged,

1248
01:10:46,842 --> 01:10:48,444
let's be honest.

1249
01:10:48,510 --> 01:10:52,414
[Vic] Well, yeah, let's be honest.
You're seeing how deranged Dakota Kai is.

1250
01:10:52,481 --> 01:10:55,017
[Wade] Face it, Valentina Feroz
deserves this, and more,

1251
01:10:55,084 --> 01:10:58,153
after trying to get involved
in Dakota Kai's matchup.

1252
01:10:58,220 --> 01:11:04,260
[Vic] Thankfully for Feroz,
her tag team partner was near.

but we look forward to seeing more
of Yulisa and Valentina,

1259
01:11:21,543 --> 01:11:23,912
but with me now, Raquel Gonzalez.

1260
01:11:23,979 --> 01:11:24,813
Raquel, what's next for you

1261
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:27,016
since Mandy Rose walked out
of New Year's Evil

1262
01:11:27,082 --> 01:11:28,884
still the NXT Women's Champion?

1263
01:11:28,951 --> 01:11:31,820
I know everyone expects me
to make this big ordeal

1264
01:11:31,887 --> 01:11:33,522
about how Mandy needed Dakota

1265
01:11:33,589 --> 01:11:35,557
to win the title from me
in the first place.

1266
01:11:35,624 --> 01:11:39,261
And I could stand here and complain
about how I wasn't the one

1267
01:11:39,328 --> 01:11:42,231
who was pinned in the Triple Threat
at New Year's Evil.

1268

I am la chingona,

1270
01:11:50,306 --> 01:11:52,808
I don't make excuses.

1271
01:11:52,875 --> 01:11:56,045
And it should come as no surprise
to everyone around here

1272
01:11:56,111 --> 01:12:00,015
that I am still coming after Mandy
and might I…

1273
01:12:00,082 --> 01:12:01,717
So am I.

1274
01:12:01,784 --> 01:12:05,421
Look, I know we both want the same thing,
but let me ask you this,

1275
01:12:05,487 --> 01:12:09,158
don't you want to be a back-to-back
Dusty Classic Champion?

1276
01:12:09,224 --> 01:12:13,662
I bet it felt pretty cool.
We can walk in there, win it all,

1277
01:12:13,729 --> 01:12:16,532
and take those titles
right out of Jacy and Gigi.

1278
01:12:16,598 --> 01:12:21,937

that I don't have a title right now.

but don't get in my way again.

Well, Vic, Wade, back to you.

but it now time for our main event on NXT.

Go win that cup.

1304
01:13:56,165 --> 01:13:57,599
-Thanks, brother.
-Let's do it.

1305
01:13:57,666 --> 01:14:00,369
Let's go, we're in it.
Hey, who do you want next?

1306
01:14:00,436 --> 01:14:01,703
MSK or Jacket Time?

1307
01:14:01,770 --> 01:14:04,072
It don't even matter,
because we'll be ready.

1308
01:14:04,139 --> 01:14:08,744
We'll be ready, baby.
All the time, all day, everyday, everyday.

1309
01:14:09,912 --> 01:14:11,280
[Vic] Certainly what an upset it was

1310
01:14:11,346 --> 01:14:13,315
in the men's Dusty Rhodes
Tag Team Classic,

1311
01:14:13,382 --> 01:14:14,550
but how about next week.

1312
01:14:14,616 --> 01:14:17,653
No disqualification falls count anywhere.

1313
01:14:17,719 --> 01:14:23,525
Solo Sikoa is focused on beating up Boa.
Next week live right here on NXT.

1314
01:14:23,592 --> 01:14:25,027
[Wade] That is wild, but it gets better,

1315
01:14:25,093 --> 01:14:27,529
'cause the challenge
was set early tonight.

1316
01:14:27,596 --> 01:14:30,499
Cameron Grimes takes on Tony D next week.

1317
01:14:30,566 --> 01:14:35,504
The winner gets an opportunity
at the NXT North American Champion,

1318
01:14:35,571 --> 01:14:36,805
Carmelo Hayes.

1319
01:14:39,241 --> 01:14:41,710
[Vic] What a matchup that will be,
but are you ready, Wade?

1320
01:14:41,777 --> 01:14:47,649
She is part of the soundtrack of NXT 2.0,
and she'll be here next week live.

1321
01:14:47,716 --> 01:14:51,253
OllieJayy joins NXT
with a special musical performance

1322
01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:53,088
live next week here on USA.

1323
01:14:53,155 --> 01:14:56,291
[Wade] Hell yeah, I'm ready,
but here's what else I'm ready for,

1324
01:14:56,358 --> 01:15:00,395
because we saw a kick-off earlier,
by next week, it get settled.

1325
01:15:00,462 --> 01:15:05,767
Kay Lee Ray, Hartwell, and Pirotta
will take on the trio of Toxic Attraction

1326
01:15:05,834 --> 01:15:10,339
in six-woman tag action
right here on NXT next week.

1327
01:15:11,173 --> 01:15:14,676
[Vic] It is the main event time
in this week here on NXT,

1328
01:15:14,743 --> 01:15:19,248
and it gets no bigger
than Walter and Roderick Strong.

1329
01:15:19,314 --> 01:15:23,752
[audience chanting "Walter"]

1330
01:15:26,321 --> 01:15:33,295
["The End Of Heartache" playing]

1331
01:15:35,864 --> 01:15:39,601
[Alicia] Making his way to the ring,
representing Diamond Mine,

1332
01:15:39,668 --> 01:15:43,272
Roderick Strong.

1333
01:15:43,872 --> 01:15:46,275
[Vic] Strong said
he is not afraid of Walter.

1334
01:15:46,341 --> 01:15:49,011
[Wade] Yeah, and I've known Roddy Strong
a long time.

1335
01:15:49,077 --> 01:15:51,680
I can see that look in his eyes,
I believe it.

1336
01:15:51,747 --> 01:15:54,082
I love the attitude,
I love the confidence,

1337
01:15:54,149 --> 01:15:57,553
but I hope he's smart though,
Walter is a dangerous man

1338
01:15:57,619 --> 01:15:59,221
and should instill fear in anybody.

1339
01:15:59,288 --> 01:16:01,423
Take his head off! Take his head off!

1340
01:16:01,490 --> 01:16:05,227
[audience chanting "Roderick"]

1341
01:16:05,694 --> 01:16:07,496
[screams]

1342
01:16:07,563 --> 01:16:09,164
[audience cheering]

1343
01:16:14,403 --> 01:16:16,104
[screams]

1344
01:16:23,045 --> 01:16:27,316
[Wade] What a night it has been
for Diamond Mine already.

1345
01:16:27,382 --> 01:16:30,819
Two victories, the Creeds are through
for the semifinals of the Dusty Cup.

1346
01:16:30,886 --> 01:16:34,222
Ivy now getting a massive victory
against Kay Lee Ray.

1347
01:16:34,289 --> 01:16:38,160
And now Roderick Strong perhaps
with the toughest task of them all

1348
01:16:38,226 --> 01:16:40,295
against the Ring General, Walter.

1349
01:16:40,362 --> 01:16:44,166
[Vic] This is a matchup, a huge main event
with international appeal.

1350
01:16:44,232 --> 01:16:46,435
And speaking of huge,
International WWE News

1351
01:16:46,501 --> 01:16:49,571
recently announced the Elimination Chamber
premium live event

1352
01:16:49,638 --> 01:16:53,342
announced for Saturday,
February 19th in Jeddah.

1353
01:16:53,408 --> 01:16:55,877
[Wade] Now what an event
that is going to be, cannot wait,

1354
01:16:55,944 --> 01:16:59,815
but speaking of events,
this in itself is a spectacle.

1355
01:16:59,881 --> 01:17:03,352
Any time Walter steps in the ring,
Bivens should like it,

1356
01:17:03,418 --> 01:17:06,455
because he is a big money matchup
every single time.

1357
01:17:06,521 --> 01:17:08,523
[Vic] You're looking around right now
at the NXT universe,

1358
01:17:08,590 --> 01:17:10,726
no one's staring at their phones,
no one's looking up.

1359
01:17:10,792 --> 01:17:14,162
All eyes fixated
on this main event matchup,

1360
01:17:14,229 --> 01:17:15,664
Walter and Roderick Strong.

1361
01:17:15,731 --> 01:17:19,001
I mean, wait, this is a matchup
some thought we would never see.

1362
01:17:19,067 --> 01:17:23,739
[Wade] Yeah, I'm not surprised, of course.
Walter made his name over in NXT UK.

1363
01:17:23,805 --> 01:17:26,508
It looked for a long time
that that's all he was interested to do.

1364
01:17:26,575 --> 01:17:29,911
Staying over there forever,
but something changed with Walter,

1365
01:17:29,978 --> 01:17:33,849
he decided to come stateside
and bring Imperium's devastation

1366
01:17:33,915 --> 01:17:35,851
and dominance right here to NXT.

1367
01:17:35,917 --> 01:17:37,819
[Vic] You can see Malcolm Bivens
on the outside.

1368
01:17:37,886 --> 01:17:41,123
Look, this all started over the weekend,
Walter did not like the comments

1369
01:17:41,189 --> 01:17:43,692
that Bivens made about Imperium.

1370
01:17:43,759 --> 01:17:47,162
[Wade] He didn't like that.
Bivens was looking into a crystal ball.

1371
01:17:47,229 --> 01:17:50,432
I personally said
the Creeds were gonna win the Dusty Cup.

1372
01:17:50,499 --> 01:17:52,901
Bivens went one further, he went all in

1373
01:17:52,968 --> 01:17:56,972
and said they were going to win
the NXT tag titles from Imperium too.

1374
01:17:57,039 --> 01:18:02,210
Walter simply standing up for his troops,
the tag champions of Imperium.

1375
01:18:02,277 --> 01:18:05,280
[Vic] Walter also…
We heard from earlier tonight,

1376
01:18:05,347 --> 01:18:07,883
noted it was Fabian Aichner
and Marcel Barthel

1377
01:18:07,949 --> 01:18:10,185
who had been waving the flag for Imperium.

1378
01:18:10,252 --> 01:18:12,254
Is Walter the current weak link
in Imperium?

1379
01:18:12,320 --> 01:18:15,123
There's no gold around his waist
or over his shoulder.

1380
01:18:15,190 --> 01:18:19,961
[Wade] Did you say Walter and weak link
in the same sentence?

1381
01:18:20,028 --> 01:18:22,097
You absolute fool, Vic Joseph.

1382
01:18:22,164 --> 01:18:24,166
I hope for your health and safety,

1383
01:18:24,232 --> 01:18:26,101
-he doesn't hear you say it.
-[Vic] Oh!

1384
01:18:26,168 --> 01:18:30,772
[Wade] Walter sets the standard
in Imperium, if you're a better man,

1385
01:18:30,839 --> 01:18:35,077
put your house on Walter winning gold
sooner or later here in NXT.

1386
01:18:35,143 --> 01:18:38,246
The only question for me is what title.

1387
01:18:38,980 --> 01:18:42,084
[Vic] You can see the trash talk
picking up between Strong and Walter.

1388
01:18:42,150 --> 01:18:45,787
You're talking about victories,
Roderick Strong needs to win tonight.

1389
01:18:45,854 --> 01:18:46,922
[Wade] Yeah, absolutely.

1390
01:18:46,988 --> 01:18:49,891
Listen, you lost the Unification Match
with Carmelo Hayes

1391
01:18:49,958 --> 01:18:52,594
at New Year's Evil in an absolute bomb,

1392
01:18:52,661 --> 01:18:56,531
but it's to kick-off NXT's 2022
first match of the year right here.

1393
01:18:56,598 --> 01:18:58,200
Such a great match,

1394
01:18:58,266 --> 01:19:01,670
plaudits from around
the sports entertainment sphere.

1395
01:19:01,737 --> 01:19:06,374
However, that was no consolation to Strong
who is all about championships and victory

1396
01:19:06,441 --> 01:19:09,344
and, of course, Bivens looking on,
he's all about the money.

1397
01:19:09,411 --> 01:19:11,246
[Vic] Right now, Strong,
trying go up and over,

1398
01:19:11,313 --> 01:19:13,749
and the massive Walter
able to get his grips,

1399
01:19:13,815 --> 01:19:17,552
his mitts on Strong,
and Strong now starting to strike back.

1400
01:19:17,619 --> 01:19:21,923
Forearm, trying to rock Walter.
Did you hear that chop? Oh!

1401
01:19:21,990 --> 01:19:24,760
[Wade] You're just asking for trouble

1402
01:19:24,826 --> 01:19:28,697
by getting the big man, Walter,
unloading those chops.

1403
01:19:28,764 --> 01:19:33,068
[audience chanting]

1404
01:19:33,135 --> 01:19:35,570
[Vic] Listen to this.

1405
01:19:35,637 --> 01:19:36,972
[chops]

1406
01:19:37,038 --> 01:19:39,775
[audience cheering]

1407
01:19:40,976 --> 01:19:46,014
[Vic] And the welt forming
across the chest of Roderick Strong

1408
01:19:46,081 --> 01:19:48,016
as Walter now…

1409
01:19:48,083 --> 01:19:50,886
[Wade] That welt is only half the story,
believe me,

1410
01:19:50,952 --> 01:19:54,856
internally, there was no oxygen
in the lungs of Roderick Strong.

1411
01:19:54,923 --> 01:20:00,695
[audience chanting "this is awesome"]

1412
01:20:04,900 --> 01:20:07,302
[Vic] This is your main event here on NXT.

1413
01:20:07,369 --> 01:20:11,006
You talk about two superstars
that aren't afraid of contact.

1414
01:20:11,072 --> 01:20:13,175
[Wade] Oh, man.
We're seeing it first hand.

1415
01:20:13,241 --> 01:20:14,809
[Vic] Oh! Come on!

1416
01:20:14,876 --> 01:20:18,346
[Wade] Man on man, skin on skin,
fight till the end.

1417
01:20:18,413 --> 01:20:24,252
And Walter right now wreaking devastation
on the leader of the Diamond Mine.

1418
01:20:24,319 --> 01:20:29,624
[Vic] Well, Walter right now focused in
just eating some forearms, then, bam!

1419
01:20:29,691 --> 01:20:33,395
It was Strong eating that huge boot
under the jaw.

1420
01:20:33,461 --> 01:20:37,632
And now Walter sending a message
right to Malcolm Bivens.

1421
01:20:37,699 --> 01:20:40,135
You can do nothing. [screams]

1422
01:20:40,202 --> 01:20:42,337
-[Vic] Whoa!
-[Wade] Uh-oh. Malcolm Bivens.

1423
01:20:42,404 --> 01:20:44,406
Not where you want to be, young man.

1424
01:20:44,472 --> 01:20:49,277
[Vic] Oh, and Strong chopped out Walter
to the injured knee.

1425
01:20:49,344 --> 01:20:53,682
Strong keeping his foot on the gas,
and now Walter on the back foot.

1426
01:20:53,748 --> 01:20:57,118
Strong now looking to continue
to march on.

1427
01:20:57,185 --> 01:21:01,056
Oh, my gosh, just got caught, riffed it,
and pulled it.

1428
01:21:01,122 --> 01:21:05,827
[audience cheering]

1429
01:21:11,399 --> 01:21:13,435
[Vic] Quite the main event here at NXT
this week.

1430
01:21:13,501 --> 01:21:15,503
Walter taking on Roderick Strong.

1431
01:21:15,570 --> 01:21:17,706
And as you saw
throughout the commercial break,

1432
01:21:17,772 --> 01:21:19,507
it has been… Oh, Walter.

1433
01:21:19,574 --> 01:21:24,012
Roderick Strong, trying to bounce back,
trying to find a new gear.

1434
01:21:24,079 --> 01:21:27,616
A dropkick rocks, Walter into the corner.

1435
01:21:27,682 --> 01:21:30,552
[Wade] We know all about the conditioning
of Roderick Strong.

1436
01:21:30,619 --> 01:21:33,154
He's going to need every ounce
of that conditioning in there

1437
01:21:33,221 --> 01:21:34,556
with the big Austrian.

1438
01:21:34,623 --> 01:21:35,857
[Vic] And now Strong.

1439
01:21:35,924 --> 01:21:37,759
-Oh! [laughs]
-[audience cheering]

1440
01:21:37,826 --> 01:21:40,462
[Wade] Taste of your own medicine,
Big Walter.

1441
01:21:40,528 --> 01:21:42,831
[Vic] Strong said
he was not afraid of Walter.

1442
01:21:42,898 --> 01:21:43,932
Would not back down.

1443
01:21:43,999 --> 01:21:45,734
Can he hoist Walter up?

1444
01:21:46,234 --> 01:21:50,705
[Wade] That might be a mountain too tall
to climb even for Roderick Strong.

1445
01:21:51,439 --> 01:21:56,711
[Vic] Oh, Walter locking in the sleeper
trying to wear down Strong.

1446
01:21:57,913 --> 01:22:02,350
Strong realizing he is in danger.
Bivens shouting on the outside.

1447
01:22:02,417 --> 01:22:05,987
[Wade] This is where panic really sets in
when you're in the big arms

1448
01:22:06,054 --> 01:22:09,224
of someone like Walter
getting the life squeezed out you,

1449
01:22:09,291 --> 01:22:10,725
straight back into it.

1450
01:22:10,792 --> 01:22:14,262
[Vic] Right back in goes Walter,
and Strong now is in danger.

1451
01:22:14,329 --> 01:22:16,131
There's nowhere for Roderick Strong to go.

1452
01:22:16,197 --> 01:22:18,967
Strong's going to have to navigate
his way somehow free.

1453
01:22:19,034 --> 01:22:23,605
[Wade] Yeah. This is a dying embers
leaving Roderick Strong

1454
01:22:23,672 --> 01:22:25,974
perhaps stealing a move
from the Cruiser weight.

1455
01:22:26,041 --> 01:22:29,077
-Working on those small joints.
-[Vic] A little joint manipulation.

1456
01:22:29,144 --> 01:22:33,181
That's an interesting way,
nonetheless effective for Roderick Strong.

1457
01:22:33,248 --> 01:22:37,252
[Wade] By hook or by crook,
get away from Walter if you can.

1458
01:22:37,319 --> 01:22:39,020
It seems to work for now.

1459
01:22:39,087 --> 01:22:45,160
[Vic] Now, the stamina monster unleashing,
showcasing that tank, that never empties.

1460
01:22:45,226 --> 01:22:47,028
Running right back into Walter.

1461
01:22:47,095 --> 01:22:49,497
[Wade] Ducking that huge chop from Walter.

1462
01:22:49,564 --> 01:22:54,069
You know that's going to take every ounce
of fight out of anybody's body.

1463
01:22:54,135 --> 01:22:55,670
[Vic] Strong, again.

1464
01:22:55,737 --> 01:22:57,005
Oh!

1465
01:22:57,072 --> 01:23:01,676
And just like that, Walter can change
the complexion of a matchup.

1466
01:23:01,743 --> 01:23:05,880
[Wade] A tree limb across the jaw
with added momentum

1467
01:23:05,947 --> 01:23:07,649
from Roderick Strong himself.

1468
01:23:07,716 --> 01:23:12,387
[Vic] Walter said he and Imperium,
were looking for global domination,

1469
01:23:12,454 --> 01:23:14,289
and it starts tonight.

1470
01:23:14,356 --> 01:23:17,559
[Wade] Absolutely. That's what they want.
Easier said than done.

1471
01:23:17,625 --> 01:23:20,595
Listen, he said it
since their arrival in NXT UK.

1472
01:23:20,662 --> 01:23:25,467
Tore down old pillars,
rebuild NXT UK in their own image.

1473
01:23:25,533 --> 01:23:29,537
Now doing it here, stateside.
He already conquered the tag division.

1474
01:23:29,604 --> 01:23:31,806
He beat Roderick Strong,
he might be unstoppable.

1475
01:23:31,873 --> 01:23:36,311
-[Vic] Roderick Strong. No way. Oh.
-[Wade] Oh, no.

1476
01:23:36,378 --> 01:23:39,447
[Vic] Just with one chop, Strong dropped.
Back to his feet.

1477
01:23:39,514 --> 01:23:43,218
[Wade] Immediately off falling to the side
of the massive face of the Austrian.

1478
01:23:43,284 --> 01:23:47,422
[Vic] Walter is rocked, and Bivens knows.
Bivens is shouting, "This is your chance."

1479
01:23:47,489 --> 01:23:49,424
[Wade] That's the money in now.

1480
01:23:49,491 --> 01:23:56,364
[audience chanting "this is awesome"]

1481
01:23:57,265 --> 01:24:00,902
[Vic] This certainly is,
and this would be impressive if Strong…

1482
01:24:01,403 --> 01:24:02,871
No way!

1483
01:24:02,937 --> 01:24:06,541
[audience cheering]

1484
01:24:09,210 --> 01:24:13,481
[Vic] Strong's got to cover Walter.
Strong, drapes his arm over Walter.

1485
01:24:13,548 --> 01:24:16,751
Cover, count. Somehow. Come on.

1486
01:24:16,818 --> 01:24:18,953
[Wade] Lost a millisecond away.

1487
01:24:19,020 --> 01:24:21,756
That Superplex took so much
out of Roderick Strong,

1488
01:24:21,823 --> 01:24:24,592
unable to make the cover
in the nick of time.

1489
01:24:24,659 --> 01:24:25,927
[audience chanting]

1490
01:24:25,994 --> 01:24:27,228
[Vic] Take a look.

1491
01:24:27,295 --> 01:24:32,434
Oh, feel the impact,
but listen to the NXT universe

1492
01:24:32,500 --> 01:24:35,870
come unglued for that moment,

1493
01:24:35,937 --> 01:24:39,774
and for this main event,
everyone on their feet.

1494
01:24:41,276 --> 01:24:44,746
[Wade] This turning into a slug fest
before our eyes.

1495
01:24:44,813 --> 01:24:48,750
Normally you'd have to back Walter,
but after that massive Superplex,

1496
01:24:48,817 --> 01:24:53,221
280 pounds of Walter crushing down,
how much is left in the General?

1497
01:24:53,288 --> 01:24:55,790
[Vic] Walter is rock,
Strong charging right back in,

1498
01:24:55,857 --> 01:24:57,959
and again Strong
going to rely on his form.

1499
01:24:58,026 --> 01:25:00,462
Right now,
Strong just throwing everything,

1500
01:25:00,528 --> 01:25:04,532
anything he can at Walter,
and Walter gets knocked down.

1501
01:25:04,599 --> 01:25:06,734
[Wade] Unleashing a wave of offense.

1502
01:25:06,801 --> 01:25:08,002
-This could be it.
-[Vic] Strong again.

1503
01:25:08,069 --> 01:25:10,605
-Into the cover to knock off Walter.
-[audience] One! Two!

1504
01:25:10,672 --> 01:25:13,942
[Vic] No, another near-fall.

1505
01:25:14,008 --> 01:25:16,678
[Wade] Malcolm Bivens said it himself,
the mat is not sacred,

1506
01:25:16,744 --> 01:25:21,649
the mat is a revenue generator,
and the mat belongs to Diamond Mine.

1507
01:25:21,716 --> 01:25:26,955
[audience chanting "fight forever"]

1508
01:25:31,292 --> 01:25:35,363
[Vic] This atmosphere
has been unbelievable all night long,

1509
01:25:35,430 --> 01:25:38,433
and what a main event
to cap things off here tonight

1510
01:25:38,500 --> 01:25:41,436
as Strong again just looking
to gain any sort of advantage.

1511
01:25:41,503 --> 01:25:44,272
Walter, too big, too strong.

1512
01:25:44,339 --> 01:25:48,843
[Wade] How many of those
can any human sternum take?

1513
01:25:48,910 --> 01:25:51,379
[Vic] Uh-oh. And Walter now
looking for a power bomb.

1514
01:25:51,446 --> 01:25:53,615
Strong able to counter.
Strong double underhook.

1515
01:25:53,681 --> 01:25:58,620
Does he have enough to hoist up Walter?
Second time not the charm.

1516
01:25:59,220 --> 01:26:04,926
Walter driving Strong
right back into that top turnbuckle.

1517
01:26:04,993 --> 01:26:07,862
Now taking care of business, is Walter.

1518
01:26:07,929 --> 01:26:10,798
[Wade] Smartly using the ring
to his advantage.

1519
01:26:10,865 --> 01:26:13,968
-Always in control. Always with a plan.
-[Vic] Powerbomb.

1520
01:26:14,035 --> 01:26:15,403
Second-time connects.

1521
01:26:15,470 --> 01:26:20,542
Walter into the cover
and the Ring General stands tall tonight.

1522
01:26:20,608 --> 01:26:27,248
["Symphony No. 9 in E Minor" playing]

1523
01:26:27,315 --> 01:26:32,387
[audience applauding]

1524
01:26:33,555 --> 01:26:37,992
[Vic] Malcolm Bivens in disbelief.
NXT universe on their feet.

1525
01:26:38,059 --> 01:26:43,831
What a main event we all just witnessed
here tonight on NXT.

1526
01:26:44,732 --> 01:26:48,736
Walter standing tall.
Roderick Strong, he laid it on the line.

1527
01:26:48,803 --> 01:26:52,006
Roderick Strong, this could've been
his best shot at the match.

1528
01:26:52,073 --> 01:26:56,210
[Wade] Let's face it, he came within
a whisker of beating the Ring General.

1529
01:26:56,277 --> 01:26:59,180
Just a millisecond away
on numerous occasions.

1530
01:26:59,247 --> 01:27:01,849
That wasn't the only chance,
but when you hit something like this.

1531
01:27:01,916 --> 01:27:05,219
I don't care who you are in NXT,
that connects,

1532
01:27:05,286 --> 01:27:06,721
you are there for the taking.

1533
01:27:06,788 --> 01:27:10,358
[Vic] Walter able to counter
one last effort from Roderick Strong,

1534
01:27:10,425 --> 01:27:13,528
deliver this massive power bomb,
center of the ring.

1535
01:27:13,595 --> 01:27:19,968
And for Walter, tonight indeed
marked the dawn of a new time of Imperium.

1536
01:27:20,034 --> 01:27:22,103
[Alicia] Ladies and gentlemen, the winner…

1537
01:27:22,170 --> 01:27:23,404
No.

1538
01:27:24,572 --> 01:27:29,978
The winner of this match is Gunther.

1539
01:27:31,613 --> 01:27:33,047
-[Wade] Wait a…
-[Vic] What?

1540
01:27:33,114 --> 01:27:36,584
Aichner, Barthel, the rest of Imperium.

1541
01:27:36,651 --> 01:27:39,654
Roderick Strong's got nothing left
in the tank.

1542
01:27:39,721 --> 01:27:42,790
[audience booing]

1543
01:27:44,025 --> 01:27:46,127
[Vic] And then come the Creed Brothers.

1544
01:27:46,194 --> 01:27:48,663
[audience shouting indistinctly]

1545
01:27:48,730 --> 01:27:52,400
[Vic] All hell breaking loose.
Bedlam has broken out.

1546
01:27:53,768 --> 01:27:55,603
We need some help out here.

1547
01:27:57,472 --> 01:27:59,007
[audience chanting "NXT"]

1548
01:27:59,073 --> 01:28:01,743
[Vic]
These two teams destroying each other.

1549
01:28:04,445 --> 01:28:06,781
Break it off! Break it off! Break it off!

1550
01:28:06,848 --> 01:28:12,420
Subtitles: Ed Boon
it off! Break it off!
