00:00:24,591 --> 00:00:25,759
Now.

4
00:00:30,897 --> 00:00:32,465
Forever.

7
00:00:44,744 --> 00:00:45,979
[Vic] Welcome into NXT.

8
00:00:46,046 --> 00:00:49,482
There you see the confident
north American champion, Carmelo Hayes.

9
00:00:49,549 --> 00:00:52,685
He's set to defend
against the leader of the D'Angelo family.

"The Don of NXT" Tony D'Angelo

11
00:00:55,255 --> 00:00:58,124
will be looking
for his first taste of gold tonight.

12
00:01:00,393 --> 00:01:02,362
[Vic] We are kicking things off tonight

13
00:01:02,429 --> 00:01:06,032
with a superstar who has massive
momentum in NXT.

14
00:01:08,902 --> 00:01:09,769

15
00:01:09,836 --> 00:01:12,872
[female announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

16
00:01:12,939 --> 00:01:18,578
Making his way to the ring, Solo Sikoa.

17
00:01:19,579 --> 00:01:22,482
[Vic] Not only massive momentum
but a massive following,

18
00:01:22,549 --> 00:01:28,254
and the frustration
has been growing inside Sikoa.

19
00:01:28,321 --> 00:01:30,123
[Wade] You can say he's frustrated.

20
00:01:30,190 --> 00:01:33,960
I don't personally understand why.
What's the excuse for the frustration?

21
00:01:34,027 --> 00:01:37,464
-[Vic] Are you serious?
-[Wade] He had next. I get that.

22
00:01:37,530 --> 00:01:39,766
[Vic] He was in line
for a title opportunity.

23
00:01:39,833 --> 00:01:43,803
[Wade] It's frustrating if you feel like
you lost that championship opportunity.

24
00:01:43,870 --> 00:01:44,537
[Vic] He did!

25
00:01:44,604 --> 00:01:47,674
[Wade] It's all Solo's fault.
He backed the wrong horse.

26
00:01:47,740 --> 00:01:51,845
He negotiated whatever he wanted
to negotiate with Cameron Grimes

27
00:01:51,911 --> 00:01:56,015
while he should have negotiated
with the "A champ" Carmelo Hayes.

Hey,

33
00:02:16,035 --> 00:02:20,707
I'm so sick of hearing about Solo Sikoa.

34
00:02:21,708 --> 00:02:24,544
We should be talking about Grayson Waller,

35
00:02:24,611 --> 00:02:28,381
the greatest first-generation talent

36
00:02:28,448 --> 00:02:30,850
in WWE history.

37
00:02:32,519 --> 00:02:36,823
Hey, I know you all love Solo

38
00:02:36,890 --> 00:02:40,627
because you are all Solo in your lives.

39
00:02:40,693 --> 00:02:45,031
A bunch of losers supporting a loser.

41
00:02:47,567 --> 00:02:49,836
You know what? I am sick

42
00:02:49,903 --> 00:02:54,073
of censoring myself on this microphone.

43
00:02:54,140 --> 00:02:56,176
So I think it's time

44
00:02:56,242 --> 00:02:58,811
I say what I really think

45
00:02:58,878 --> 00:03:02,949
about you and everyone here.

47
00:03:07,287 --> 00:03:09,822
First of all, Solo--

48
00:03:09,889 --> 00:03:11,357
[Vic] Whoa!

49
00:03:11,424 --> 00:03:13,560

50
00:03:13,626 --> 00:03:16,029

talked to himself into a corner.

53
00:03:23,970 --> 00:03:25,171
[Vic] Oh.

54
00:03:25,238 --> 00:03:27,807
[Wade] Solo Sikoa looking
like a man possessed.

55
00:03:27,874 --> 00:03:32,278
For once I was enjoying seeing
Grayson Waller run his mouth--

56
00:03:32,345 --> 00:03:35,481
[Vic] You're getting any help over here.
I'll tell you that. Oh.

57
00:03:35,548 --> 00:03:38,351
[Wade] I knew
Solo Sikoa was going to shut it up.

58
00:03:38,418 --> 00:03:40,520
[Vic] He's bursting one of our monitors.

59
00:03:41,087 --> 00:03:44,123
[Wade] You want to complain?
You're going to tell Sikoa off?

60
00:03:44,190 --> 00:03:45,425
[Vic] Well, I'm not.

61
00:03:45,491 --> 00:03:46,426

62
00:03:46,492 --> 00:03:47,594

[Vic] This one is official

65
00:03:51,364 --> 00:03:54,701
and this is just what Solo Sikoa
has been waiting for.

66
00:03:54,767 --> 00:03:56,703
Of course, Sikoa eyeing up

67

our main event
for the North American championship.

68
00:03:59,939 --> 00:04:01,841
[Wade] You think so, Captain Obvious?

69
00:04:01,908 --> 00:04:06,179
The whole world is going
to be eyeing up tonight's main event

70
00:04:06,245 --> 00:04:08,781
has the makings of an absolute classic.

00:04:08,848 --> 00:04:12,619
[audience chanting "Let's go, Waller"
and "Let's go, Solo"]

72
00:04:12,685 --> 00:04:16,522
[Wade] Because tonight's main event,
can Tony D grab his first slice of gold?

73
00:04:16,589 --> 00:04:18,725
Can Melo stay the A champ?

74
00:04:18,791 --> 00:04:22,095
Sikoa is hooked on that
as all the rest of us.

75
00:04:24,731 --> 00:04:29,636
[Vic] There's no doubt. Sikoa knows
he has the support of the NXT Universe.

76
00:04:29,702 --> 00:04:33,606
Into the cover, hook of leg,
and Waller able to kick out at two.

77
00:04:33,673 --> 00:04:37,243
[Wade] I don't know
if anybody has hooked the NXT Universe

78
00:04:37,310 --> 00:04:41,781
quite as fast
as Solo Sikoa has managed to do so far.

79
00:04:41,848 --> 00:04:43,816
[Vic] He is driven. He's determined.

80
00:04:43,883 --> 00:04:46,019
We heard him talk
about how determined he is

81
00:04:46,085 --> 00:04:48,488
to wear the North American title
at some point.

82
00:04:48,554 --> 00:04:53,993
He has no fear in his eyes,
but what a right hand from Grayson Waller.

83
00:04:54,060 --> 00:04:56,329
[Wade] Solo Sikoa is the man's man.

84
00:04:56,396 --> 00:04:58,331
Big mistake there from Waller though.

85
00:04:59,065 --> 00:05:00,767
[Grayson] Get out of the corner!

86
00:05:01,601 --> 00:05:02,635
Come on, man.

87
00:05:06,873 --> 00:05:09,409
[Vic] Right now,
Sikoa answering right back.

88
00:05:09,475 --> 00:05:11,210
The NXT Universe believes

89
00:05:11,277 --> 00:05:13,313
a point was proven by Solo Sikoa

90
00:05:13,379 --> 00:05:16,249
when he teamed up with Apollo Crews
several weeks ago

91
00:05:16,316 --> 00:05:19,218
that he deserved
a North American championship opportunity.

92
00:05:19,285 --> 00:05:23,122
Grayson Waller last week said
all Sikoa did was [indistinct]

93
00:05:23,189 --> 00:05:25,525
Crews' coattail to a victory.

94
00:05:25,591 --> 00:05:27,126
[Wade] Listen, to be honest,

95
00:05:28,328 --> 00:05:33,099
Solo Sikoa didn't even get the pinfall
in the tag match you're referring to.

96
00:05:33,166 --> 00:05:35,134
[Vic] You agree with Grayson Waller.

97
00:05:35,201 --> 00:05:40,239
[Wade] [indistinct], but Apollo Crews
was the one who got the pinfall.

98
00:05:40,306 --> 00:05:41,874
Sikoa needs to be patient

99
00:05:41,941 --> 00:05:44,477
when it comes
to the North American championship.

100
00:05:44,544 --> 00:05:48,648
Get in line, wait for an opportunity
like everyone else on the roster.

101
00:05:48,715 --> 00:05:51,117
What is it? The turnbuckle just came off.

102
00:05:54,721 --> 00:05:57,623
[Vic] As Grayson Waller
trying to get out of a Samoan drop

103
00:05:57,690 --> 00:05:59,792
that Solo Sikoa was looking for.

104
00:05:59,859 --> 00:06:02,395
Sikoa not worrying
about an exposed turnbuckle.

105
00:06:02,462 --> 00:06:05,164
Chopping down Waller.

106
00:06:06,699 --> 00:06:08,000
Sikoa hasn't forgotten

107
00:06:08,067 --> 00:06:12,572
that it was two weeks ago
Waller stuck his nose in Sikoa's business.

108
00:06:12,638 --> 00:06:14,474
[Wade] Waller did indeed do that,

109
00:06:14,540 --> 00:06:19,045
but let's face it, he does not need
an excuse to grab the spotlight.

110
00:06:19,112 --> 00:06:23,015
This guy, Waller lives
first and foremost for fame,

111
00:06:23,082 --> 00:06:25,918
spotlight and viral moments,

112
00:06:25,985 --> 00:06:28,154
but he might have beaten off
more than he can chew

113
00:06:28,221 --> 00:06:30,123
with an enraged Solo Sikoa.

114
00:06:30,189 --> 00:06:31,924
Was it really worth it Waller?

115
00:06:32,692 --> 00:06:35,228
[Vic] Uh-oh. Put on the breaks did Sikoa

116
00:06:35,294 --> 00:06:37,797
and then he just steams rolls
right through Waller.

117
00:06:38,564 --> 00:06:42,201
[Wade] He's one step ahead
of the game throughout this matchup.

118
00:06:42,268 --> 00:06:46,205
[Vic] Already into another cover.
Another kickout by Grayson Waller.

119
00:06:46,272 --> 00:06:50,343
Take another look at this clothesline
and just feel the impact.

120
00:06:52,345 --> 00:06:53,513
Bam!

121
00:06:55,248 --> 00:06:58,017
Solo Sikoa hitting with a purpose
here tonight

122
00:06:58,084 --> 00:07:01,053
as Waller trying his best to fight back.

123
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,723
I have to ask this
when it comes to Grayson Waller,

124
00:07:03,790 --> 00:07:06,793
what we've seen from him in recent weeks.

125
00:07:06,859 --> 00:07:09,562
Does it reek of desperation?

126
00:07:09,629 --> 00:07:11,898
[Wade] There's certainly
some desperation now.

127
00:07:11,964 --> 00:07:15,067
Desperate to get away from Sikoa.
I'm sure. Of course, he does.

128
00:07:15,134 --> 00:07:17,537
You get fame and spotlight
in this industry

129
00:07:17,603 --> 00:07:20,273
as a consequence of your hard work,

130
00:07:20,339 --> 00:07:23,843
and of course, winning championships.
Take Bron Breakker, for example.

131
00:07:23,910 --> 00:07:27,513
Waller though just wants
to put the cart before the horse.

132
00:07:27,580 --> 00:07:29,715
He's constantly trying to cut corners,

133
00:07:29,782 --> 00:07:32,618
make a name for himself any way he can

134
00:07:32,685 --> 00:07:35,655
despite his lack of desire
to put in the hard yards.

135
00:07:35,721 --> 00:07:36,823
[audience chanting "Solo"]

136
00:07:36,889 --> 00:07:41,260
[Vic] Every time Waller gets going,
Sikoa has been able to slam the door shut.

137
00:07:42,161 --> 00:07:45,932
And the welts starting to form
on the chest of Grayson Waller

138
00:07:45,998 --> 00:07:49,836
from every strike
from Solo Sikoa in this match.

139
00:07:49,902 --> 00:07:52,605
What a way to kick off NXT this week.

140
00:07:53,239 --> 00:07:55,174
[Wade] Smart move there from Waller.

141
00:07:55,241 --> 00:07:58,044
You don't wear boots?
That might be the consequence.

142
00:07:58,110 --> 00:07:59,278
[Vic] Oh, nice.

143
00:07:59,846 --> 00:08:04,083
Like it or not, Grayson Waller
certainly has a few tricks up his sleeve.

144
00:08:04,617 --> 00:08:08,254
[Wade] Usually the dirty kind of tricks,
but either way, highly effective.

145
00:08:08,321 --> 00:08:11,123
[audience booing]

146
00:08:13,059 --> 00:08:17,563
[Vic] Grayson Waller
could be feeding off the jeers

147
00:08:17,630 --> 00:08:19,699
from the NXT Universe.

148
00:08:19,765 --> 00:08:23,369
[audience cheering]

149
00:08:25,137 --> 00:08:27,340
[Vic] And… Waller, oh.

150
00:08:27,406 --> 00:08:31,944
Gets dropped one more time.
Solo Sikoa one step ahead of Waller.

151
00:08:32,011 --> 00:08:35,948
[audience cheering]

152
00:08:38,017 --> 00:08:41,153
[Vic] Back on NXT. What a way
to kick things off here tonight.

153
00:08:41,220 --> 00:08:43,856
It's a huge night on NXT.

154
00:08:43,923 --> 00:08:46,092
A big championship main event

155
00:08:46,158 --> 00:08:48,261
for the North American title
still to come.

156
00:08:48,327 --> 00:08:52,298
[Wade] Wow. These two right now
tearing the house down.

157
00:08:52,365 --> 00:08:54,967
Audience on their feet as well.
They should be.

158
00:08:55,034 --> 00:08:56,369
This has gone back and forth,

159
00:08:56,435 --> 00:08:58,905
but right now, Grayson Waller
managing to get the best of it,

160
00:08:58,971 --> 00:09:00,740
but turning it around is Solo Sikoa.

161
00:09:00,806 --> 00:09:04,310
[Vic] As you saw, Waller was in control
for the commercial break,

162
00:09:04,377 --> 00:09:06,312
and right back at it goes Waller.

163
00:09:06,379 --> 00:09:08,748
Takes Sikoa off his feet.
Into the cover. Hook of the leg.

164
00:09:08,814 --> 00:09:11,183
Sikoa able to kick out at two.

165
00:09:11,250 --> 00:09:14,520
This Grayson Waller need to have an--

166
00:09:14,587 --> 00:09:17,290
oh, another kick out by Sikoa.

167
00:09:17,356 --> 00:09:18,424
So close.

168
00:09:18,491 --> 00:09:19,425
Take another look.

169
00:09:19,492 --> 00:09:23,329
Grayson Waller, like it or not,
he certainly can get it done in the ring.

170
00:09:23,396 --> 00:09:26,132
Bam. That was almost the knockout blow.

171
00:09:26,198 --> 00:09:28,367
To kick us off here tonight.

172
00:09:29,135 --> 00:09:33,272
Does Grayson Waller need
an attitude adjustment in your opinion?

173
00:09:33,339 --> 00:09:34,674
We've heard them go back and forth,

174
00:09:34,740 --> 00:09:36,609
that being Sikoa and many others
talking about Waller.

175
00:09:36,676 --> 00:09:39,512
[Wade] Attitude adjustment.
I've had a few of them in my time.

176
00:09:39,579 --> 00:09:41,047
Never enjoyed it myself, but yeah.

177
00:09:41,113 --> 00:09:44,717
I've been waiting months for somebody
to give Waller a beating so bad

178
00:09:44,784 --> 00:09:47,853
he finally shut his mouth for good.

179
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,056
I had my fingers crossed
that Sikoa will get it done,

180
00:09:50,122 --> 00:09:51,023
but it ain't looking good.

181
00:09:51,090 --> 00:09:54,427
[Vic] Off the DDT, into the cover,
and another kick out by Sikoa.

182
00:09:54,493 --> 00:09:57,163
You mentioned you hinted
one of your greatest rivals,

183
00:09:57,229 --> 00:09:58,297
John Cena of course,

184
00:09:58,364 --> 00:10:00,967
returns to Raw this Monday.

185
00:10:02,802 --> 00:10:06,439
Waller once again could be
talking himself into a corner,

186
00:10:06,505 --> 00:10:08,608
or as you called it, a beating.

187
00:10:08,674 --> 00:10:09,809
Do you agree with Waller though

188
00:10:09,875 --> 00:10:12,445
that he's the greatest
first-generation talent?

189
00:10:12,511 --> 00:10:14,447
[Wade] Yes. Out of all time?

190
00:10:14,513 --> 00:10:16,983
I don't know. Greater than The Undertaker?

191
00:10:17,049 --> 00:10:18,851
For me, Waller and The Undertaker,

192
00:10:18,918 --> 00:10:21,687
they're neck in neck in achievement,
aren't they, right?

193
00:10:21,754 --> 00:10:23,589
[Vic] I will not agree with you.
[crosstalk]

194
00:10:23,656 --> 00:10:25,391
[Wade] Wrong. Hell no.

195
00:10:26,792 --> 00:10:29,662
I mean, I'm sure in Waller's head
that is the case though.

196
00:10:29,729 --> 00:10:32,465
[audience booing]

197
00:10:32,531 --> 00:10:34,100
[Vic] Grayson Waller believes

198
00:10:34,166 --> 00:10:37,303
he should be
the main event every single Tuesday.

199
00:10:37,370 --> 00:10:40,473
The main event
of every single premium live event.

200
00:10:40,539 --> 00:10:44,644
[audience booing]

201
00:10:45,945 --> 00:10:49,281
[Vic] It took too much time
and pays the price.

202
00:10:49,348 --> 00:10:51,717
[Wade] Man, I loved every second of that.

203
00:10:51,784 --> 00:10:53,753
That was slapstick right there,

204
00:10:53,819 --> 00:10:57,556
and that is what Grayson Waller
so richly deserves.

205
00:10:59,558 --> 00:11:02,595
[Vic] Steamrolling right over Waller
is Sikoa.

206
00:11:02,661 --> 00:11:06,165
[Wade] Could you imagine
if Grayson Waller could actually focus

207
00:11:06,232 --> 00:11:08,401
purely on what he does in the ring?

208
00:11:08,467 --> 00:11:10,136
He's brilliant when he wants to be.

209
00:11:10,202 --> 00:11:11,804
That's the frustrating part of it.

210
00:11:11,871 --> 00:11:14,407
[audience chanting "Solo"]

211
00:11:14,473 --> 00:11:18,377
[Vic] Sikoa we talked about building
so much momentum in recent weeks.

212
00:11:18,444 --> 00:11:21,981
Trying to continue
building that momentum here tonight.

213
00:11:26,852 --> 00:11:27,987
Uh-oh.

214
00:11:28,788 --> 00:11:31,123
Waller is not going to like the view.

215
00:11:31,624 --> 00:11:34,794
Sikoa has his target acquired.

216
00:11:34,860 --> 00:11:37,630
[Wade] Didn't like the view.
Didn't like the taste, either.

217
00:11:37,697 --> 00:11:40,800
Right for the pickings is Grayson Waller.

218
00:11:42,868 --> 00:11:45,838
[Vic] Now maybe the finishing touches,
but again, Waller sensing it.

219
00:11:46,605 --> 00:11:49,508
Oh, able to snake his way free.

220
00:11:50,109 --> 00:11:53,579
Waller now, slithers back into the ring,
gets caught, gets dropped.

221
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,216
[Wade] Perfect timing there
from Solo Sikoa.

222
00:11:57,283 --> 00:11:59,718
Trying to put this one to bed.

223
00:12:02,154 --> 00:12:06,892
[Vic] NXT Universe rising
as Sikoa starts to climb.

224
00:12:06,959 --> 00:12:12,064
[audience booing]

225
00:12:13,365 --> 00:12:16,736
[Vic] Waller able
to just roll out of the way, but--

226
00:12:16,802 --> 00:12:19,905
whoa, walked right into a super kick.

227
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:21,907
[Wade] Oh, no.

228
00:12:22,575 --> 00:12:25,111
[Vic] No, that exposed turnbuckle.

229
00:12:25,177 --> 00:12:26,245
Waller sees an opening.

230
00:12:26,312 --> 00:12:27,546
Drops Sikoa.

231
00:12:28,881 --> 00:12:31,417
Into the cover and Waller--

232
00:12:31,484 --> 00:12:35,020
oh, Waller steals a victory.

233
00:12:35,087 --> 00:12:35,921
[audience booing]

234
00:12:35,988 --> 00:12:40,726
[female announcer]
Here is your winner, Grayson Waller.

235
00:12:41,293 --> 00:12:43,863
[Wade] Time and time again, we see it.

236
00:12:43,929 --> 00:12:47,399
Grayson Waller cutting corners
on his path to victory,

237
00:12:47,466 --> 00:12:51,704
but somehow tonight, I don't think
he really had that planned, did he?

238
00:12:53,005 --> 00:12:57,309
[Vic] I think for Waller,
he surprised himself tonight.

239
00:12:57,376 --> 00:12:59,879
This happened earlier in the matchup.

240
00:13:00,546 --> 00:13:02,314
Waller breaking away,

241
00:13:02,381 --> 00:13:07,453
ripping the turnbuckle pad
exposing that solid steel.

242
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,789
Sikoa would continue
to focus in the matchup.

243
00:13:11,323 --> 00:13:15,427
Then right here, Sikoa caught
and dropped Grayson Waller.

244
00:13:15,494 --> 00:13:17,796
Sikoa then would look for a huge splash.

245
00:13:17,863 --> 00:13:20,132
Waller weaseled his way free,

246
00:13:20,199 --> 00:13:21,834
and then bam.

247
00:13:21,901 --> 00:13:23,903
That's the moment
everything changed in the matchup.

248
00:13:23,969 --> 00:13:27,039
[Wade] Waller was simply clinging on
for dear life at that point.

249
00:13:27,106 --> 00:13:29,341
The moment he got his opportunity,

250
00:13:29,408 --> 00:13:31,610
pulls out this, and there you go.

251
00:13:31,677 --> 00:13:33,913
Huge win for Grayson Waller.

252
00:13:33,979 --> 00:13:35,614
The momentum for him continues.

253
00:13:36,115 --> 00:13:37,950
[rap music plays]

254
00:13:40,986 --> 00:13:42,188
First generation.

255
00:13:42,254 --> 00:13:44,023
First generation, baby.

256
00:13:44,089 --> 00:13:45,157
No one touches me.

257
00:13:45,224 --> 00:13:46,659
My house right here.

258
00:13:46,725 --> 00:13:48,260
My house.

259
00:13:50,029 --> 00:13:52,064
Grayson Waller with a victory
over Solo Sikoa,

260
00:13:52,131 --> 00:13:54,366
but with me now
is Tony D'Angelo and family.

261
00:13:54,433 --> 00:13:56,669
Tony, tonight is a big night
for you in the crew.

262
00:13:56,735 --> 00:13:58,671
You know, it's a big night for the crew,
McKenzie.

263
00:13:58,737 --> 00:14:01,574
The Legados have a chance
to get on my good side

264
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,343
if they beat Roderick Strong
and Damon Kemp,

265
00:14:04,977 --> 00:14:07,112
and I get my first taste of gold

266
00:14:07,179 --> 00:14:11,150
when I beat Carmelo Hayes
for the NXT North American championship.

267
00:14:11,217 --> 00:14:13,352
The acquisition of Legado
hasn't really went as planned.

268
00:14:13,419 --> 00:14:15,387
How do you expect to turn that around?

269
00:14:15,454 --> 00:14:17,623
Look, in any company take over,

270
00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:19,825
there's going to be
some growing pains, all right?

271
00:14:19,892 --> 00:14:22,862
Elektra, she's doing
exactly what we told her to do,

272
00:14:22,928 --> 00:14:26,765
and the Legados have a chance
to prove themselves to the family.

273
00:14:27,433 --> 00:14:28,634
Right, Santos?

274
00:14:32,538 --> 00:14:34,807
Absolutely, Don.

275
00:14:35,941 --> 00:14:38,077
Because if I walk out of here

276
00:14:38,143 --> 00:14:41,680
and I'm not
the NXT North American champion,

277
00:14:41,747 --> 00:14:43,549
there's going to be hell to pay.

278
00:14:44,984 --> 00:14:47,152
Don't worry about it, boss.

279
00:14:48,187 --> 00:14:49,521
I got this.

280
00:14:50,356 --> 00:14:51,223
Good.

281
00:14:51,290 --> 00:14:52,291
Let's get out of here.

282
00:14:54,460 --> 00:14:56,462
A very confident Tony D'Angelo.

283
00:14:56,528 --> 00:14:57,830
Guys, back to you.

284

[Katana chance
and Kayden Carter's music plays]

285
00:15:00,165 --> 00:15:04,069
[Wade] It looks like the family
are all on the same page finally.

286
00:15:04,136 --> 00:15:06,906
That bodes well ahead
of tonight's main event.

287

00:15:09,441 --> 00:15:11,377

The following contest is a tag team match

289

scheduled for one fall.

290

Introducing first,
the team of Katana Chance

291
00:15:16,615 --> 00:15:19,018
and Kayden Carter.

292
00:15:19,084 --> 00:15:22,321

293
00:15:22,388 --> 00:15:24,356
with Chance and Carter.

This duo looking to bounce back
here tonight.

295
00:15:27,726 --> 00:15:29,495
Can they do so?

296
00:15:29,561 --> 00:15:34,566
Highly competitive tag team matchup
coming up in just moments here on NXT.

[upbeat music plays]

298
00:15:43,008 --> 00:15:44,376
[JD McDonagh] Do you hear that?

299
00:15:45,311 --> 00:15:47,346
That's the winds of change.

300
00:15:48,447 --> 00:15:52,484
I think the winds of change
are blowing around NXT 2.0.

301
00:15:53,752 --> 00:15:55,587
If I'm going to leave my home,

my penthouse overlooking my city,

303
00:15:58,357 --> 00:16:00,392
Dublin city,

304
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:02,995
you know it's for a damn good reason.

305
00:16:04,697 --> 00:16:06,598
You'll find out why soon enough.

306
00:16:07,566 --> 00:16:11,904
Everyone in NXT 2.0 is going to find out

307
00:16:11,971 --> 00:16:15,507
that you never bet against an ace.

[Yulisa Leon
and Valentina Feroz's music plays]

309
00:16:23,549 --> 00:16:25,851
[female announcer] Introducing Yulisa Leon

00:16:25,918 --> 00:16:29,121
and Valentina Feroz.

311
00:16:29,188 --> 00:16:32,491
[Vic] We're set
for an explosive tag team matchup.

312
00:16:32,558 --> 00:16:34,293
Look, for Feroz and Leon,

313
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,530
they're really looking
for a signature win so to speak tonight

314
00:16:38,597 --> 00:16:39,698
and certainly would get one

315
00:16:39,765 --> 00:16:43,002
if they're able to knock off
a team like chance and Carter.

316
00:16:43,068 --> 00:16:44,069
[bell rings]

317
00:16:44,136 --> 00:16:45,604
[Wade] Yeah, absolutely.
Chance and Carter,

318
00:16:46,138 --> 00:16:47,840
recent number one contenders

319
00:16:47,906 --> 00:16:50,743
for the NXT women's tag championship.

320
00:16:50,809 --> 00:16:51,844
Oh.

321
00:16:52,678 --> 00:16:54,113
[Vic] Oh, ho-ho.

322
00:16:54,179 --> 00:16:56,015
Talk about coming out of the gate hot.

323
00:16:56,081 --> 00:16:59,318
[Wade] Right into the action.
No time for dance moves tonight.

324
00:17:02,421 --> 00:17:04,456
[Vic] Nice super kick.
Carter now into the cover.

325
00:17:04,523 --> 00:17:06,859
This could be short work
and a quick kickout.

326
00:17:06,925 --> 00:17:08,260
We got to go back.

327
00:17:08,327 --> 00:17:09,795
It would happen so fast.

328
00:17:09,862 --> 00:17:11,397
If you blink, you missed it.

329
00:17:12,798 --> 00:17:13,766
Bam.

330
00:17:13,832 --> 00:17:17,269
So much for the dance moves
early on in this matchup.

331
00:17:17,336 --> 00:17:20,806
I do have to know which team
do you think has the better moves?

332
00:17:22,007 --> 00:17:23,609
[Wade] When it comes to dance moves,

333
00:17:23,675 --> 00:17:26,812
after watching Smack Down four weeks ago,
I could say for certain,

334
00:17:26,879 --> 00:17:30,949
it isn't Drew McIntyre,
the worst dancer on planet Earth.

335
00:17:31,016 --> 00:17:31,984
To answer your question,

336
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:35,254
I could watch all four of these ladies
dance all night long.

337
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:40,192
They mesmerize me like Joe Gacy
mesmerizes The Dyad.

338
00:17:40,259 --> 00:17:41,260
Come on. Let's go.

339
00:17:41,326 --> 00:17:43,295
[Vic] That's one way to put another it.
Another quick tag was made.

00:17:43,362 --> 00:17:46,398
Leon now, the powerhouse looking to fly up

341
00:17:46,465 --> 00:17:48,834
over a little bit extra
to get Carter down,

342
00:17:48,901 --> 00:17:50,936
shoulders are down and a near fall.

343
00:17:51,003 --> 00:17:52,304
Look, let's call it what it is.

344
00:17:52,371 --> 00:17:55,707
This matchup, both these teams
really are jocking for position

345
00:17:55,774 --> 00:17:58,343
in the tag team division here in NXT.

346
00:17:58,410 --> 00:18:01,447
[Wade] They are indeed jockeying
to climb the ladder in the division,

347
00:18:01,513 --> 00:18:04,016
jockeying to earn opportunities,

348
00:18:04,082 --> 00:18:07,686
jockeying to gain tag title matchup,

349
00:18:07,753 --> 00:18:12,291
and then ultimately jockeying to earn
the right to lose to Toxic Attraction.

350
00:18:12,357 --> 00:18:15,094
[Vic] Now who's counting
chickens here before they hatch.

351
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,962
The tag was made. In comes Chance.

352
00:18:17,029 --> 00:18:18,897
Look at Chance and Carter.

353
00:18:18,964 --> 00:18:21,567
So fast, so quick,

354
00:18:21,633 --> 00:18:23,669
one brain running through their bodies.

355
00:18:23,735 --> 00:18:25,037
They're always on the same page.

356
00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:26,371
Can they pick up a victory?

357
00:18:26,438 --> 00:18:27,806
Another quick kickout.

358
00:18:27,873 --> 00:18:31,777
We have seen
some impactful offense in this matchup.

359
00:18:31,844 --> 00:18:34,413
There is no love lost
between these two teams.

360
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,548
Now Chance's shoulders are down,
and a kickout.

361
00:18:36,615 --> 00:18:38,016
[Wade] They battled
a few times in the past.

362
00:18:38,083 --> 00:18:41,353
Chance and Carter earned themselves
a championship opportunity

363
00:18:41,420 --> 00:18:44,156
the last time these two teams met.

364
00:18:44,223 --> 00:18:45,057
Let me know.

365
00:18:45,124 --> 00:18:47,926
[Wade] Notable in that match for me
though several weeks back

366
00:18:47,993 --> 00:18:53,799
was how much Valentina Feroz,
Yulisa Leon had grown as a team,

367
00:18:53,866 --> 00:18:56,101
stepped up, built a bit of chemistry.

368
00:18:56,168 --> 00:18:57,669
I think they finally clicked

369
00:18:57,736 --> 00:19:00,973
and I'm expecting big things from this duo

370
00:19:01,039 --> 00:19:04,610
if, of course, they can get past
the team of Chance and Carter.

371
00:19:04,676 --> 00:19:06,111
[Vic] Carter made that line tag,

372
00:19:06,178 --> 00:19:08,313
and now it is Leon
who is paying the price.

373
00:19:08,380 --> 00:19:11,617
Wade, you talk about the history
between these two teams.

374
00:19:11,683 --> 00:19:15,187
We're just talking about Chance and Carter
had a golden opportunity several weeks ago

375
00:19:15,254 --> 00:19:17,089
at NXT In Your House premium live event.

376
00:19:17,156 --> 00:19:22,261
Which team in your opinion
needs a victory more here tonight on NXT?

377
00:19:22,327 --> 00:19:25,330
[Wade] I'm going to for Chance and Carter
for the reason you just mentioned.

378
00:19:25,397 --> 00:19:29,668
They had that tight opportunity at NXT
In Your House.

379
00:19:29,735 --> 00:19:31,003
[Vic] Chance into the cover this time.

380
00:19:31,069 --> 00:19:33,438
Another hook of the leg, another kickout.

381
00:19:33,505 --> 00:19:35,774
[Wade] They came close
to beating Toxic Attraction,

382
00:19:35,841 --> 00:19:37,309
but not close enough.

383
00:19:37,376 --> 00:19:39,578
Ultimately falling at the final hurdle.

384
00:19:39,645 --> 00:19:43,615
You know they have the taste
of the big time in their mouths right now

385
00:19:43,682 --> 00:19:44,750
and they want more.

386
00:19:44,816 --> 00:19:48,053
[Vic] Off the combination offense,
another cover, and another kickout.

387
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:49,621
[screams]

388
00:19:49,688 --> 00:19:51,690
[Vic] Continuing to be able
to kick out at one.

389
00:19:51,757 --> 00:19:53,091
Talk about perseverance.

390
00:19:53,158 --> 00:19:54,760
Another tag was made. In comes Carter.

391
00:19:54,826 --> 00:19:56,662
[Wade] Chance and Carter
are doing a great job

392
00:19:56,728 --> 00:20:00,465
of cutting Valentina Feroz completely out
of the matchup here.

393
00:20:00,532 --> 00:20:02,734
Leon has been in pretty much
from the beginning here,

394
00:20:02,801 --> 00:20:06,405
getting worn down
and that is expert tag action.

395
00:20:07,072 --> 00:20:08,140
[Vic] To your point, here it is.

396
00:20:08,206 --> 00:20:11,210
Leon desperately needing
to reach out and make a tag.

397
00:20:11,276 --> 00:20:14,379
Feroz desperately trying
to reach in to help her partner.

398
00:20:14,446 --> 00:20:15,514
So close.

399
00:20:15,581 --> 00:20:19,051
Carter trying to pull back
and, oh, didn't get all the enzuigiri.

400
00:20:19,117 --> 00:20:20,719
Certainly got enough to open the door.

401
00:20:20,786 --> 00:20:24,022
Tag was made, and in comes Feroz.

402
00:20:24,089 --> 00:20:28,226
Feroz so ferocious
showcasing that background

403
00:20:28,293 --> 00:20:31,964
and now just really hitting anything
and everything that moves.

404
00:20:32,030 --> 00:20:34,566
It doesn't matter if it's Carter.
It doesn't matter if it's Chance.

405
00:20:35,534 --> 00:20:37,903
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Cover, cover, cover.

406
00:20:37,970 --> 00:20:38,971
And a kick out.

407
00:20:39,037 --> 00:20:42,140
[Wade] She's got that look
in her eye now, does Valentina Feroz,

408
00:20:42,207 --> 00:20:45,210
wants to take control of the matchup.
Freshest woman in there.

409
00:20:45,277 --> 00:20:49,014
[Vic] Look, I always hate to agree
with you, but I have to agree with you.

410
00:20:49,081 --> 00:20:50,515
The tag team division
in the women's division

411
00:20:50,582 --> 00:20:53,252
has been on lock by Toxic Attraction.

412
00:20:53,752 --> 00:20:55,821
[Wade] All the gold and all power.

413
00:20:55,887 --> 00:20:57,789
And that might be good night.

414
00:20:57,856 --> 00:20:59,424
[Vic] What goes up must come down.

415
00:20:59,491 --> 00:21:03,328
And Carter wisely coming in
to continue this matchup,

416
00:21:03,395 --> 00:21:04,997
saving things for her team.

417
00:21:05,063 --> 00:21:07,799
Absolutely. That was a three-count
any day of the week.

418
00:21:07,866 --> 00:21:10,769
I told you Feroz and Leon
they'd been working together,

419
00:21:10,836 --> 00:21:15,274
building up their repertoire
of combo moves, unique offense.

420
00:21:15,340 --> 00:21:18,443
[Vic] Oh, how about
a unique counter by chance?

421
00:21:18,510 --> 00:21:21,213
This is now her chance to tag in Carter

422
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,684
and turn the complexion of this matchup
completely around.

423
00:21:25,751 --> 00:21:29,421
[Wade] The spitfire of NXT Kayden Carter

424
00:21:29,488 --> 00:21:32,391
badly wants in on the action
and now here she comes.

425
00:21:32,457 --> 00:21:34,526
[Vic] Tag was made.
Leon did not realize it

426
00:21:34,593 --> 00:21:35,827
as Carter is legal.

427
00:21:35,894 --> 00:21:37,929
Here is Carter and Chance.

428
00:21:37,996 --> 00:21:42,401
This teamwork that they have executed
so well over the last several months.

429
00:21:42,467 --> 00:21:44,670
Into the cover and a quick breakup.

430
00:21:44,736 --> 00:21:45,837
You're not legal. Hey.

431
00:21:45,904 --> 00:21:47,639
[Vic] By Leon, and it was just
as wise as hers

432
00:21:47,706 --> 00:21:49,341
it was by Chance several minutes ago.

433
00:21:49,408 --> 00:21:51,677
[Wade] Absolutely one-on-one
on breakups now.

434
00:21:51,743 --> 00:21:54,546
This match really falling apart
at the seams.

435
00:21:55,147 --> 00:21:57,082
[Vic] Things starting to break down.

436
00:21:57,149 --> 00:21:58,583
What a super kick.

437
00:21:59,318 --> 00:22:01,853
Now, Chance going to the top rope.

438
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,823
-[Wade] Oh, we've seen this before.
-[Vic] Get your cameras ready.

439
00:22:06,491 --> 00:22:08,927
Human highlight reel.

440
00:22:09,461 --> 00:22:10,462
[bell rings]

441
00:22:10,529 --> 00:22:12,831
[audience cheering]

442
00:22:12,898 --> 00:22:17,669
[female announcers] Here are your winners,
Kayden Carter and Katana Chance.

443
00:22:17,736 --> 00:22:21,940
[Vic] Big victory, big bounce back moment
for Chance and Carter.

444
00:22:22,007 --> 00:22:23,775
Let's take a look at some of the action

445
00:22:23,842 --> 00:22:28,580
in this highly competitive,
highly physical tag team matchup.

446
00:22:28,647 --> 00:22:31,917
[Wade] Yes, indeed.
You can see the spitfire of NXT

447
00:22:31,983 --> 00:22:33,919
doing what she does best.

448
00:22:33,985 --> 00:22:39,691
Here we see once again
ridiculous athleticism from Katana Chance.

449
00:22:39,758 --> 00:22:42,294
The timing between this duo just perfect.

450
00:22:42,360 --> 00:22:43,495
It needed to be.

451
00:22:43,562 --> 00:22:44,696
Got in them the W.

452
00:22:44,763 --> 00:22:46,531
Where is this going to lead next

453
00:22:46,598 --> 00:22:49,568
for this team of Katana Chance
and Kayden Carter?

454
00:22:49,634 --> 00:22:52,204
[Vic] When they needed a victory
to get back,

455
00:22:52,270 --> 00:22:55,574
they bounced back here tonight
in a huge way.

456
00:23:02,347 --> 00:23:05,851
I can't state enough how big of a win
that was for Katana and Kayden,

457
00:23:05,917 --> 00:23:08,754
but it's not about wins
or losses for this superstar.

458
00:23:08,820 --> 00:23:10,355
It's about finding himself.

459
00:23:10,422 --> 00:23:12,390
It's about finding the peace within.

460
00:23:12,457 --> 00:23:15,093
Wes Lee will address the NXT Universe

461
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,062
next on NXT.

462
00:23:19,030 --> 00:23:20,365
[Wes Lee's music plays]

463
00:23:20,432 --> 00:23:24,536
[female announcer]
Please, welcome Wes Lee.

464
00:23:24,603 --> 00:23:26,405
[Vic] And here is a superstar

465
00:23:26,471 --> 00:23:28,607
who's on a winning streak,

466
00:23:28,673 --> 00:23:30,876
but you wouldn't tell
by just looking at him.

467
00:23:30,942 --> 00:23:35,247
[Wade] Yeah, I mean, wins and losses
in this game are massive.

468
00:23:35,313 --> 00:23:38,617
For a lot of people,
they are the be-all-end-all.

469
00:23:38,683 --> 00:23:41,353
It's perhaps a little bit different
for Wes Lee though.

470
00:23:41,419 --> 00:23:45,657
For him,
real life has taken control at times

471
00:23:45,724 --> 00:23:49,728
and things run a little bit deeper
than wins and losses for him.

472
00:23:50,529 --> 00:23:55,200
[audience chanting]

473
00:23:57,369 --> 00:23:58,804
I have to thank you all.

474
00:23:59,704 --> 00:24:01,840
It truly is a blessing for me
to remain here

475
00:24:01,907 --> 00:24:04,209
to still receive this love from you all.

476
00:24:04,276 --> 00:24:07,813
[audience cheering]

477
00:24:11,650 --> 00:24:18,590
[audience chanting "You deserve it"]

478
00:24:22,027 --> 00:24:23,228
All right. I thank y'all.

479
00:24:23,295 --> 00:24:24,763
I thank y'all.

480
00:24:24,830 --> 00:24:27,566
This right now

481
00:24:27,632 --> 00:24:29,067
is very much needed,

482
00:24:29,134 --> 00:24:31,169
especially after the past three months
that I've had.

483
00:24:31,236 --> 00:24:36,308
[audience cheering]

484
00:24:36,374 --> 00:24:37,442
Like,

485
00:24:38,443 --> 00:24:42,280
I've gone from the highest of highs

486
00:24:43,949 --> 00:24:46,117
to quite possibly the lowest of lows.

487
00:24:50,455 --> 00:24:52,257
I went from being

488
00:24:52,324 --> 00:24:57,762
your two-time NXT tag team champion,

489
00:24:59,197 --> 00:25:03,835
reigning supreme
with my best friend and my brother

490
00:25:06,071 --> 00:25:11,076
just to have our world explode
right from under our feet.

491
00:25:11,142 --> 00:25:14,913
[audience shouting]

492
00:25:17,115 --> 00:25:18,917
But I must say--

493
00:25:18,984 --> 00:25:20,552
I got to say that--

494
00:25:20,619 --> 00:25:22,087
[sighs]

495
00:25:24,189 --> 00:25:25,957
No, I wear my tears proudly.

496
00:25:26,024 --> 00:25:28,527
I wear 'em proudly.

497
00:25:28,593 --> 00:25:29,728
Because

498
00:25:32,964 --> 00:25:35,901
while my world had crumbled
beneath my feet,

499
00:25:35,967 --> 00:25:38,970
and I am sifting through the rubble
trying to find myself,

500
00:25:40,472 --> 00:25:43,875
all that I find is pain and anger,

501
00:25:47,078 --> 00:25:50,482
and it consumed me to a point
that I was not acting as myself to y'all

502
00:25:50,549 --> 00:25:51,917
and I apologize.

503
00:25:51,983 --> 00:25:55,053
[audience cheering and applauding]

504
00:25:55,987 --> 00:25:59,791
From Xyon all the way to Sanga,

505
00:25:59,858 --> 00:26:02,260
I was just trying to prove myself.

506
00:26:07,532 --> 00:26:10,001
I was trying to show

507
00:26:10,068 --> 00:26:12,671
that Wes Lee can stand on his own two feet

508
00:26:12,737 --> 00:26:14,606
and do what he needs to do.

509
00:26:16,508 --> 00:26:17,609
[Trick Williams' music plays]

510
00:26:17,676 --> 00:26:19,744
[audience booing]

511
00:26:19,811 --> 00:26:21,580
[Trick Williams] Whoa, whoa, whoa.

512
00:26:22,814 --> 00:26:24,983
Hey, Wes, shut up.

513
00:26:26,184 --> 00:26:28,086
Shut up.

514
00:26:28,153 --> 00:26:30,722
Nobody wants to hear
about your lowest of lows

515
00:26:30,789 --> 00:26:33,491
or how lonely you are

516
00:26:33,558 --> 00:26:36,795
or how your brother exploded
or whatever you said.

[laughs]

518
00:26:38,697 --> 00:26:41,333
You see, maybe the truth is

519
00:26:42,033 --> 00:26:43,702
you left your brother behind.

520
00:26:43,768 --> 00:26:46,338
[audience booing]

521
00:26:46,404 --> 00:26:49,874
Maybe you're not the friend
you always pretend to be.

522
00:26:52,777 --> 00:26:55,547
Maybe your boy is gone

523
00:26:55,614 --> 00:26:58,049
because you left him behind.

524
00:26:58,116 --> 00:27:00,485
[audience booing]

525
00:27:04,789 --> 00:27:08,393
You have no idea

526
00:27:08,460 --> 00:27:10,795
how I was there for that man.

527
00:27:10,862 --> 00:27:12,998
You have no idea

528
00:27:13,698 --> 00:27:17,268
the way that we had to rise together

529
00:27:17,335 --> 00:27:19,337
in order for us to get to that point.

530
00:27:22,173 --> 00:27:24,976
And I understand
that you'll never understand that

531
00:27:25,043 --> 00:27:28,546
because you just remain second fiddle
to your homeboy.

532
00:27:34,085 --> 00:27:36,021
And with all the hype

533
00:27:36,087 --> 00:27:38,289
that you have been throwing
towards that man,

534
00:27:38,356 --> 00:27:42,260
I'm really wondering if you happen
to have any hype left for yourself.

535
00:27:43,762 --> 00:27:46,564
As I stand here in this ring,

536
00:27:46,631 --> 00:27:48,733
I'm waiting to find out what it is.

537
00:27:50,802 --> 00:27:52,704
Hold on there, Afro Thunder.

538
00:27:52,771 --> 00:27:54,205
We don't work on your time.

539
00:27:54,272 --> 00:27:56,174
We work on my time.

540
00:27:56,241 --> 00:27:57,976
You see, I'm Trick Willy,

541
00:27:58,043 --> 00:27:59,844
and my time is money.

542
00:27:59,911 --> 00:28:01,579
I tell you what, when I'm ready,

543
00:28:01,646 --> 00:28:03,415
I'll let you know,

544
00:28:03,481 --> 00:28:05,383
or better yet,
I do you one better than that.

545
00:28:05,450 --> 00:28:08,620
I do you how all your old friends did you,

546
00:28:08,687 --> 00:28:11,056
and I'll just leave.

[Trick Williams' music plays]

549
00:28:19,631 --> 00:28:22,667
[Vic] Wes Lee has every right
to be frustrated in this moment.

550
00:28:22,734 --> 00:28:26,438
I cannot believe Trick Williams ruined

551
00:28:26,504 --> 00:28:29,074
what was perhaps a moment of clarity,

552
00:28:29,774 --> 00:28:31,609
not just in the life,

553
00:28:31,676 --> 00:28:34,112
but also the career of Wes Lee.

[music plays]

555
00:28:42,387 --> 00:28:44,923
You want to know
what I think of Wendy Choo?

556
00:28:44,989 --> 00:28:45,890
[chuckles]

557
00:28:45,957 --> 00:28:47,125
How much time do we have?

558
00:28:47,192 --> 00:28:49,060
Because we're going to be here a while.

559
00:28:49,127 --> 00:28:52,330
The first word that comes to mind
when I think of Wendy Choo

560
00:28:52,397 --> 00:28:54,065
is tragic.

561
00:28:54,132 --> 00:28:55,433
I mean, come on.

562
00:28:55,500 --> 00:28:57,869
When you see someone
who sucks at life like her,

563
00:28:57,936 --> 00:28:59,404
you kind of feel bad,

564
00:28:59,471 --> 00:29:00,739
not for her.

565
00:29:00,805 --> 00:29:04,809
Oh, God, no, but for the people
that have to be around that kind of aura.

566
00:29:05,643 --> 00:29:07,378
Look at the way I dress,

567
00:29:07,445 --> 00:29:09,614
my style, the way that I carry myself,

568
00:29:09,681 --> 00:29:11,649
and then look at frumpy.

569
00:29:11,716 --> 00:29:13,718
I don't even want to know
what her closet looks like

570
00:29:13,785 --> 00:29:15,220
with all those onesies in it.

571
00:29:15,286 --> 00:29:17,522
It'll so give me nightmares.

572
00:29:17,589 --> 00:29:20,325
Do you think
she's ever took first place in anything?

573
00:29:20,391 --> 00:29:23,995
Do you think she's ever lifted
200 pounds above her head in a gym,

574
00:29:24,062 --> 00:29:27,298
or even been in a gym, or even know a gym?

575
00:29:27,365 --> 00:29:29,968
Not including imaginary friends.

576
00:29:30,802 --> 00:29:34,205
Obvi, she's jealous of me.
That, I can't blame her for.

577
00:29:34,272 --> 00:29:35,573
But what I can blame her for

578
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,743
is ruining my ring gear
and costing me a match.

579
00:29:38,810 --> 00:29:41,880
One, two, three!

580
00:29:41,946 --> 00:29:44,883
Stay away from me you,
you Peter Pan reject.

581
00:29:44,949 --> 00:29:46,451
She loves sleeping so much.

582
00:29:46,518 --> 00:29:49,888
I'll have no problem putting her
to sleep for good.

583
00:29:53,191 --> 00:29:54,392
We're done here.

584

Choo's juvenile antics for good.

[female announcer] The following contest
is a tag team match

scheduled for one fall.

590
00:30:14,746 --> 00:30:17,282
Introducing first,
representing Diamond Mine,

591
00:30:17,348 --> 00:30:22,187
Damon Kemp and Roderick Strong.

592
00:30:22,687 --> 00:30:25,089
[Vic] There are a lot of questions

593
00:30:25,156 --> 00:30:28,760
swarming inside of Diamond Mine,

594
00:30:28,827 --> 00:30:31,663
and they all surround the leader,

595
00:30:31,729 --> 00:30:33,198
that being Roderick Strong.

596
00:30:33,264 --> 00:30:37,135
[Wade] As they should, everything revolves
around the leader Roderick Strong,

597
00:30:37,202 --> 00:30:42,440
and for good reason, the man knows
a thing or two about a thing or two.

598
00:30:42,507 --> 00:30:44,876
That is why he's the leader.

599
00:30:46,611 --> 00:30:48,213
[Vic] Roderick Strong getting ready

600
00:30:48,279 --> 00:30:50,949
to show the Creed brothers
maybe how it's done.

[Vic] We are back on NXT,

607
00:31:15,807 --> 00:31:19,510
and we're about to be joined
by the D'Angelo family.

and another week
under the thumb of the Don

615
00:31:54,345 --> 00:31:57,148
for Wilde and Del Toro.

616
00:31:57,215 --> 00:32:00,985
[Wade] Del Toro and Wilde really need
to wipe those looks off their faces--

617
00:32:01,052 --> 00:32:04,489
-[Vic] Are you kidding me?
-[Wade] Accept their new roles in life.

618

Life is in constant flux,
things are always changing.

619
00:32:08,893 --> 00:32:12,563
They're an addition to a new family now,
things have changed,

620
00:32:12,630 --> 00:32:16,401
and the sooner
the lads in Legado embrace it,

621
00:32:16,467 --> 00:32:20,305
the easier it's going to be
for everyone going forward.

623
00:32:25,143 --> 00:32:26,577
[Vic] Well,
we mentioned the Creed brothers,

624
00:32:26,644 --> 00:32:28,012
it was last week,

625
00:32:28,079 --> 00:32:31,516
the Creed brothers threw out
a challenge to Roderick Strong,

626
00:32:31,582 --> 00:32:35,053
and it sounded like Strong wanted
nothing to do with this contest

627
00:32:35,119 --> 00:32:36,788
as he's in control up front.

628
00:32:36,854 --> 00:32:38,556
[Wade] Of course
he didn't want this matchup.

629
00:32:38,623 --> 00:32:41,659
He doesn't need the Creeds
playing matchmaker for him,

630
00:32:41,726 --> 00:32:43,127
Roderick Strong calls the shots.

631
00:32:43,194 --> 00:32:46,397
Why the hell are the Creeds
trying their hand

632
00:32:46,464 --> 00:32:48,466
at being the leaders of the Diamond Mine?

633
00:32:48,533 --> 00:32:49,834
That is not how it works.

634
00:32:49,901 --> 00:32:51,035
-[Vic] Hold on a second.
-[Wade] No.

635
00:32:51,102 --> 00:32:52,937
One person sits at the very top,

636
00:32:53,004 --> 00:32:56,107
Roderick Strong understandably was vexed

637
00:32:56,174 --> 00:32:58,976
that the Creeds decided
to overstep their Mark. Oh.

638
00:32:59,043 --> 00:33:01,145
[Vic] Tag was made, Del Toro is now legal.

639
00:33:01,212 --> 00:33:05,750
Here is some innovative offense
from Wilde and Del Toro.

640
00:33:05,817 --> 00:33:07,985
Oh, nice springboard moonsault.

641
00:33:08,052 --> 00:33:10,788
Into another cover,
quick kickout by Strong.

642
00:33:10,855 --> 00:33:14,158
Julius, Brutus, and Ivy Nile,
they all had the same point.

643
00:33:14,225 --> 00:33:16,627
Diamond Mine's mindset is no excuses,

644
00:33:16,694 --> 00:33:18,496
so what was the excuse
for Roderick Strong,

645
00:33:18,563 --> 00:33:19,831
who tags in Damon Kemp?

646
00:33:19,897 --> 00:33:23,267
[Wade] Hold on, who taught Ivy Nile
and the Creeds that point?

647
00:33:23,334 --> 00:33:26,504
I'll tell you who taught them,
it was Roderick Strong.

648
00:33:26,571 --> 00:33:29,340
Roderick Strong is smart enough
and experienced enough

649
00:33:29,407 --> 00:33:33,611
to pick and choose his battles
at the right time.

650
00:33:33,678 --> 00:33:36,848
He's not scared of anyone,
he's not one of excuses.

[audience yelling]

653
00:33:43,187 --> 00:33:46,257
[Vic] Oh, we've seen
Strong fire up Kemp in the past,

654
00:33:46,324 --> 00:33:47,658
Del Toro caught off guard,

655
00:33:47,725 --> 00:33:50,361
but right now
he is going to feel the wrath of Kemp.

656
00:33:50,428 --> 00:33:53,831
[Wade] I've seen this before,
unbridled rage here from Damon Kemp.

657
00:33:53,898 --> 00:33:58,236
That is great leadership,
knocked the cobwebs off Damon Kemp,

658
00:33:58,302 --> 00:34:00,238
awoken the beast inside

659
00:34:00,304 --> 00:34:01,706
and the end result is this,

660
00:34:01,773 --> 00:34:05,076
great management once again
from Roderick Strong.

661
00:34:05,143 --> 00:34:06,944
It's how you bring
the best out of your men,

662
00:34:07,011 --> 00:34:08,479
that's what he's trying to do
for the Creeds.

663
00:34:08,546 --> 00:34:09,447
[Vic] [indistinct]

664
00:34:09,514 --> 00:34:11,849
For Kemp, not even going for a cover,

665
00:34:11,916 --> 00:34:13,217
just wanting to inflict punishment,

666
00:34:13,284 --> 00:34:15,520
ground and pound style of offense.

667
00:34:15,586 --> 00:34:17,021
[audience chanting "Legado"]

668
00:34:17,088 --> 00:34:19,824
[Vic] Now Kemp dragging Del Toro back,

669
00:34:19,891 --> 00:34:22,760
and of course Roderick Strong wants
to make his way back into the matchup.

670
00:34:22,827 --> 00:34:26,664
Do you get the sense
that Strong is maybe a little jealous

671
00:34:26,731 --> 00:34:28,299
that the Creeds are wearing gold?

672
00:34:28,366 --> 00:34:29,600
[Wade laughs]

673
00:34:29,667 --> 00:34:32,003
Of all the ridiculous things
you've ever said,

674
00:34:32,069 --> 00:34:33,104
that might be number one.

675
00:34:33,171 --> 00:34:34,372
-[Vic] You don't think?
-[Wade] No.

676
00:34:34,439 --> 00:34:35,406
[Vic] Come on.

677
00:34:35,473 --> 00:34:38,443
[Wade] Roderick Strong
has had a career laden with gold,

678
00:34:38,509 --> 00:34:42,613
including those tag championships
that the Creeds are now holding.

679
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:43,848
Strong,

680
00:34:43,915 --> 00:34:47,485
he's just trying to guide the Creeds,
protect them, mold them,

681
00:34:47,552 --> 00:34:52,790
so they one day can be as good
as Roderick Strong is and has always been.

682
00:34:52,857 --> 00:34:56,427
Jealousy?
Not a word in the Diamond Mine vocabulary.

683
00:34:56,494 --> 00:35:00,231
[Vic] Right now things not going very well
for Diamond Mine.

684
00:35:01,899 --> 00:35:05,403
Oh, back breaker,
and Wilde dropped by Kemp.

685
00:35:07,839 --> 00:35:10,541
[Wade] This Kemp really is
something special, isn't he?

686
00:35:10,608 --> 00:35:13,177
[Vic] Shoots the half, into the cover--
certainly is.

687
00:35:13,244 --> 00:35:15,113
Shoulders are down, and a kick out.

688
00:35:15,179 --> 00:35:18,316
Take a look at some of this teamwork
from Diamond Mine,

689
00:35:18,382 --> 00:35:22,653
to your point, it all began
with the leader Roderick Strong,

690
00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:24,722
the Messiah of the back breaker himself

691
00:35:24,789 --> 00:35:26,858
opening the door for Kemp as we see.

692
00:35:26,924 --> 00:35:29,127
Back to the live action on the outside.

693
00:35:29,193 --> 00:35:31,629
Stacks and two dimes not very impressed

694
00:35:31,696 --> 00:35:33,898
with what they've seen
from Legado here tonight.

695
00:35:33,965 --> 00:35:36,300
[Wade] Well,
Legado aren't pulling their weight,

696
00:35:36,367 --> 00:35:39,604
a bit like the Creeds,
overstepping their mark at times.

697
00:35:40,338 --> 00:35:43,074
[Vic] Of course
Tony D'Angelo and Santos Escobar

698
00:35:43,141 --> 00:35:45,143
are back in the locker room area,

699
00:35:45,209 --> 00:35:49,080
as D'Angelo, preparing
for his North American championship match

700
00:35:49,147 --> 00:35:51,516
in our main event here tonight on NXT,

701
00:35:51,582 --> 00:35:53,084
as Wilde, opening the door.

702
00:35:53,151 --> 00:35:54,986
Now, can he make the tag?

703
00:35:55,653 --> 00:35:58,022
Here comes Del Toro, here comes Strong.

704
00:35:58,089 --> 00:35:59,423
Whoa.

705
00:35:59,490 --> 00:36:02,293
[Wade] Del Toro waited a long time
to get involved in this matchup

706
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,862
and he's certainly making that wait count.

707
00:36:06,497 --> 00:36:10,868
[Vic] Del Toro, going up, going around,
and, oh, taking out Strong.

708
00:36:10,935 --> 00:36:14,539
Let's not forget when Tony D'Angelo
joined us here on commentary,

709
00:36:14,605 --> 00:36:17,675
he wasn't very impressed
with the lucha libre style of offense

710
00:36:17,742 --> 00:36:19,544
by Legado,

711
00:36:19,610 --> 00:36:21,512
certainly paying off right now
for Del Toro.

712
00:36:21,579 --> 00:36:24,815
[Wade] Tony D has a more meat
and potato style--

713
00:36:24,882 --> 00:36:27,018
[Vic] Cover, hooks the leg,
Strong able to kick out at two.

714
00:36:27,084 --> 00:36:29,854
[Wade] Didn't appreciate the flash antics
of Santos Escobar

715
00:36:29,921 --> 00:36:34,692
a couple of weeks ago,
although his new family men in Legado,

716
00:36:34,759 --> 00:36:36,394
they're certainly doing
the business right now.

717
00:36:36,460 --> 00:36:38,362
[Vic] Nasty elbow by Strong,

718
00:36:38,429 --> 00:36:40,064
who's trying to turn it right back around,

719
00:36:40,131 --> 00:36:42,333
and plants Del Toro.

720
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,270
Strong into a cover, hook to the leg,
Wilde able to get in, break up the count.

721
00:36:46,337 --> 00:36:49,574
That's going to bring in Kemp,
now all four men into this matchup.

722
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,411
Lorenzo and Donovan on the outside

723
00:36:53,477 --> 00:36:56,047
getting an up close view
of what Legado can do

724
00:36:56,113 --> 00:36:58,916
as they are rolling
right now in this matchup.

725
00:37:02,386 --> 00:37:05,923
[Wade] I think they got an up close view
at NXT In Your House

726
00:37:05,990 --> 00:37:09,227
in that six-man tag
that they emerged victorious from,

727
00:37:09,293 --> 00:37:11,963
that's how we got to this point
with Tony D's--ho-ho!

728
00:37:16,167 --> 00:37:18,836
[Vic] I don't think
Two Dimes even realized what happened.

729
00:37:18,903 --> 00:37:23,007
Miscommunication and that has opened
the door for the Diamond Mine

730
00:37:23,074 --> 00:37:24,375
to pick up the win.

731
00:37:24,442 --> 00:37:25,876
[Diamond Mine's music plays]

732
00:37:25,943 --> 00:37:29,480
[female announcer] Here are your winners,
Diamond Mine.

733
00:37:30,781 --> 00:37:32,917
[Vic] That's quite the victory

734
00:37:32,984 --> 00:37:34,819
for Diamond Mine tonight,

735
00:37:35,620 --> 00:37:37,488
again, led by Roderick Strong.

736
00:37:37,555 --> 00:37:40,491
Let's go back
to some of the action in this matchup,

737
00:37:40,558 --> 00:37:43,527
because I'm sure
there's a head-scratching moment going on

738
00:37:43,594 --> 00:37:46,230
for Tony D'Angelo
if he witnessed this right here.

739
00:37:46,297 --> 00:37:50,201
[Wade] here's the issue, Cruz Del Toro
clearly not having his wits about him,

740
00:37:50,268 --> 00:37:52,970
wasn't focused on the outside
like he should've been,

741
00:37:53,037 --> 00:37:56,574
a completely accidental clash there,
of course,

742
00:37:56,641 --> 00:37:59,010
capitalized on by Roderick Strong.

743
00:37:59,076 --> 00:38:01,579
What do you expect
from the leader of Diamond Mine?

744
00:38:01,646 --> 00:38:02,780
The man just gets WS.

745
00:38:02,847 --> 00:38:05,549
[Vic] I see on the outside,
Stacks is a little taken back.

746
00:38:05,616 --> 00:38:09,220
The growing pains and the frustrations
continue to build

747
00:38:09,287 --> 00:38:12,423
between Legado and Tony's crew.

748
00:38:12,490 --> 00:38:14,325
-That was on y'all.
-You dropped the ball.

749
00:38:14,392 --> 00:38:16,294
That was on you.

750
00:38:17,461 --> 00:38:18,863
A big win for Diamond Mine

751
00:38:18,929 --> 00:38:21,599
as the struggles continue
for the Tony D'Angelo family.

752
00:38:21,666 --> 00:38:23,134
With me now is Giovanni Vinci,

753
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,670
and an impressive victory
last week in your debut.

754
00:38:26,003 --> 00:38:27,405
McKenzie,

755
00:38:27,471 --> 00:38:29,340
standing before you right now

756
00:38:29,407 --> 00:38:32,710
is the most supreme athlete in NXT.

757
00:38:32,777 --> 00:38:35,112
Last week, a statement was made,

758
00:38:35,179 --> 00:38:36,814
a message was sent,

759
00:38:36,881 --> 00:38:38,849
but it was sent in style.

760
00:38:38,916 --> 00:38:42,319
I know Bron Breakker was watching,
I know Carmelo Hayes was watching,

761
00:38:42,386 --> 00:38:45,022
Diamond Mine, the entire locker room.

762
00:38:45,089 --> 00:38:50,561
Everybody knows that a top tier talent
just walked through the door in style.

763
00:38:50,628 --> 00:38:54,298
[laughs] I see you.

764
00:38:54,365 --> 00:38:56,734
I can see you have style,

765
00:38:56,801 --> 00:38:59,236
but are you style Strong?

766
00:39:01,138 --> 00:39:04,642
I guess we'll find out.

767
00:39:04,709 --> 00:39:05,910
[chuckles]

768
00:39:07,812 --> 00:39:10,348
[speaks Italian]

769
00:39:11,849 --> 00:39:13,284
[rap music plays]

770
00:39:13,351 --> 00:39:16,420
[Vic] Oh, Barrett, calm down,
I know you see Jayne, Dolin and Rose,

771
00:39:16,487 --> 00:39:18,823
and they may have all the gold,
but for how much longer?

772
00:39:18,889 --> 00:39:21,192
Toxic Attraction is next on NXT.

773
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,029
[ominous music plays]

774
00:39:25,096 --> 00:39:27,164
[Apollo Crews] Do I have what it takes?

775
00:39:28,332 --> 00:39:29,467
Will this work?

776
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,736
How will people perceive me?

777
00:39:33,204 --> 00:39:35,072
Fear lives inside of everyone,

778
00:39:35,139 --> 00:39:36,707
but you can't run from fear,

779
00:39:36,774 --> 00:39:38,175
you have to confront it.

780
00:39:39,143 --> 00:39:41,846
It's easy to look at the man in the mirror
and say you will,

781
00:39:43,114 --> 00:39:45,750
but what happens
when that opportunity presents itself?

782
00:39:46,384 --> 00:39:49,019
That's the difference
between who you've seen before,

783
00:39:49,086 --> 00:39:50,688
and who you see now.

784
00:39:51,255 --> 00:39:52,590
Fearless.

785
00:39:53,524 --> 00:39:55,760
Hey, man, I wouldn't go down there.

786
00:39:55,826 --> 00:39:57,128
Nothing but trouble.

787
00:40:00,097 --> 00:40:02,333
Hey, man, I wouldn't go down there.

788
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:03,634
Nothing but trouble.

789
00:40:04,402 --> 00:40:05,736
Thanks for the heads up.

790
00:40:11,242 --> 00:40:12,510
Hey!

791
00:40:13,344 --> 00:40:14,512
Leave him alone.

792
00:40:14,578 --> 00:40:16,847
Yeah? I think
you should mind your business.

793
00:40:16,914 --> 00:40:19,550
[action music plays]

794
00:40:29,026 --> 00:40:29,894
Thank you.

[suspenseful music plays]

796
00:40:35,900 --> 00:40:37,601
Hey, man, I wouldn't go down there.

797
00:40:38,102 --> 00:40:39,603
Nothing but trouble.

798
00:40:40,204 --> 00:40:41,806
Thanks for the heads up.

[suspenseful music plays]

800
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:51,816
Oh, I cannot get over

801
00:40:51,882 --> 00:40:55,853
how great it is
to have Apollo Crews back here in NXT.

802
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:57,955
Speaking of great, how about
what's going to happen

803
00:40:58,022 --> 00:41:01,992
in two weeks' time,
it's The Great American Bash.

804
00:41:02,059 --> 00:41:04,328
It's going to be right here on USA.

806
00:41:06,730 --> 00:41:09,633

[female announcer] Please welcome

Gigi Dolin, Jacy Jayne,

812

Toxic Attraction.

814
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,644
[Vic] See, this week I was smart,
I hid your Cologne.

815
00:41:53,711 --> 00:41:57,515
[Wade] Don't you worry about that,
I got some backup.

816
00:41:57,581 --> 00:42:01,118
I got a bottle of Sex Panther
right here under the desk.

817
00:42:01,185 --> 00:42:03,254
[Vic] How often does that work correctly?

818
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:07,358
[Wade] 100% of the time,
20% of the time, or something like that.

819
00:42:07,424 --> 00:42:08,959
It's what the bottle says anyway.

820
00:42:09,026 --> 00:42:11,228
[Vic] Yes, I thought
I smelled some gasoline last week.

821
00:42:12,363 --> 00:42:15,032
Toxic Attraction, speaking of last week,

822
00:42:16,367 --> 00:42:19,803
things didn't turn out
the way they wanted--

823
00:42:19,870 --> 00:42:22,806
[Wade] Old news,
stop going on about old news.

824
00:42:22,873 --> 00:42:24,375
Here's the news, here's the news.

825

We're here,
and today the gold and the power

826
00:42:27,144 --> 00:42:29,280
still where it belongs,

827
00:42:29,346 --> 00:42:30,848
with Toxic Attraction.

828
00:42:30,915 --> 00:42:33,984
[Vic] The question is,
for how much longer?

829
00:42:40,190 --> 00:42:46,363
[audience chanting "Gigi"]

830
00:42:46,430 --> 00:42:49,166
I want to make something really clear.

831
00:42:50,267 --> 00:42:52,836
Last week,

832
00:42:52,903 --> 00:42:56,440
Roxanne Perez and her two reject friends

833
00:42:56,507 --> 00:42:58,742
might have had a fluke victory,

834
00:42:58,809 --> 00:43:02,246
but they're still losers.

835
00:43:02,313 --> 00:43:07,151
I mean, Roxanne's walking around
on a high horse lately.

836
00:43:07,217 --> 00:43:10,421
She thinks she's on top of the world.

837
00:43:10,487 --> 00:43:13,190
I mean, it's embarrassing, honestly.

838
00:43:13,257 --> 00:43:18,062
Like, all of her dreams
are becoming a reality.

839
00:43:18,128 --> 00:43:20,264
Please. I mean, what's next?

840
00:43:20,331 --> 00:43:23,934
Is she going to start imagining
my title around her waist

841
00:43:24,001 --> 00:43:26,470
like she plays with her action figures
at home?

842
00:43:27,404 --> 00:43:29,640
It's disgusting.

843
00:43:30,674 --> 00:43:33,110
But this isn't playtime,

844
00:43:33,177 --> 00:43:35,245
this isn't your little video games,

845
00:43:35,312 --> 00:43:37,648
this isn't a fairy tale,

846
00:43:37,715 --> 00:43:40,417
and you're damn sure not Cinderella.

847
00:43:41,518 --> 00:43:44,355
You're about to get
a reality check, honey,

848
00:43:44,421 --> 00:43:47,358
and it's going to be toxic,

849
00:43:47,424 --> 00:43:50,494
because when the pressure's really on,

850
00:43:51,095 --> 00:43:53,797
you're going to realize
you are not on our level.

851
00:43:54,298 --> 00:43:59,770
Just ask your little friend Cora Jade
about folding under pressure

852
00:43:59,837 --> 00:44:01,638
when it matters the most,

853
00:44:01,705 --> 00:44:03,974
she's become a real pro at it.

854
00:44:04,041 --> 00:44:05,009
[audience booing]

855
00:44:05,075 --> 00:44:06,644
It's pitiful.

856
00:44:07,544 --> 00:44:13,550
If I were you, little Miss Breakout Star,

857
00:44:13,617 --> 00:44:16,954
I would buy
another one of those little bus tickets

858
00:44:17,021 --> 00:44:19,023
you like to talk about so much.

859
00:44:19,089 --> 00:44:25,496
Go back home and put up posters
of real superstars like us

860
00:44:25,562 --> 00:44:27,531
on your bedroom walls.

861
00:44:28,999 --> 00:44:31,101
Because if you stick around,

862
00:44:31,168 --> 00:44:34,338
your dreams
are going to become a nightmare,

863
00:44:34,405 --> 00:44:38,542
and it's going to become really ugly.

864

[Roxanne Perez's music plays]

865
00:44:43,547 --> 00:44:45,449
[Vic] I think someone has heard enough.

866
00:44:47,051 --> 00:44:49,153
[audience cheering]

867
00:44:50,421 --> 00:44:52,890
[Mandy] Whoa, whoa, whoa.

868
00:44:52,956 --> 00:44:55,626
I'm sorry, did I hit a nerve or something?

869
00:44:56,427 --> 00:45:00,330
Roxanne, don't think that a couple of wins

870
00:45:00,397 --> 00:45:03,534
is going to get you a challenge
against me, because it's not.

871
00:45:04,735 --> 00:45:08,839
You all shut up
because I run this place, okay?

872
00:45:08,906 --> 00:45:10,774
[audience booing]

873
00:45:10,841 --> 00:45:14,478
Roxanne, don't be delusional.

874
00:45:14,545 --> 00:45:20,050
You don't want to cash that contract in,
trust me.

875
00:45:21,385 --> 00:45:22,720
You know what?

876
00:45:23,554 --> 00:45:24,788
You're right, Mandy.

877
00:45:25,789 --> 00:45:29,760
I am feeling on top of the world.

878
00:45:31,662 --> 00:45:34,965
But, but I also know

879
00:45:35,032 --> 00:45:40,137
that I've earned every single bit
of being able to live my dream.

880
00:45:40,904 --> 00:45:44,074
And the thing about dreams

881
00:45:44,141 --> 00:45:47,511
is that they're even better
when you get to share them.

882
00:45:47,578 --> 00:45:49,279
[audience cheering]

883
00:45:49,346 --> 00:45:51,882
I'm sick, I'm sick.

884
00:45:51,949 --> 00:45:56,386
After last week,
me and Cora got to thinking,

885
00:45:56,453 --> 00:45:58,756
and as much
as it would mean the world to me

886
00:45:58,822 --> 00:46:03,093
to become NXT women's champion,

887
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,096
and one day I will,

888
00:46:07,598 --> 00:46:10,934
winning the NXT
women's tag team championship

889
00:46:11,001 --> 00:46:14,805
with my best friend
would be that much sweeter.

890

[Katana Chance and Kayden Carter's

[Katana Chance] Not so fast.

893
00:46:21,478 --> 00:46:23,580
Whoa, whoa, whoa,

894
00:46:23,647 --> 00:46:28,085
whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a damn minute.

895
00:46:28,152 --> 00:46:31,221
Did I just hear you say
something about the tag team titles?

896
00:46:31,755 --> 00:46:34,458
Hate to break it to you,
but the line starts behind us,

897
00:46:34,525 --> 00:46:37,261
because we are not done yet.

898
00:46:37,928 --> 00:46:42,599
We saw In Your House,
you looked pretty done to me.

899
00:46:42,666 --> 00:46:44,902
[chuckles]

900
00:46:44,968 --> 00:46:50,641
Okay, we get it, you two are best friends,
and it's very cute.

901
00:46:50,707 --> 00:46:52,075
-So are we.
-Exactly.

902
00:46:52,142 --> 00:46:53,510
And you don't get to cut in line

903
00:46:53,577 --> 00:46:56,346
just because
you're the new flavor of the month.

904
00:46:56,413 --> 00:47:00,384
-Preach, preach.
-Flavor of the month, really?

905
00:47:00,450 --> 00:47:03,320
I've been here a year,
and she just got here.

906
00:47:03,387 --> 00:47:05,522
-You two are done.
-[laughs]

907
00:47:05,589 --> 00:47:07,057
We'll show you done.

908
00:47:07,124 --> 00:47:08,091
[Vic] Whoa!

909
00:47:09,293 --> 00:47:10,894
All hell is breaking loose

910
00:47:11,962 --> 00:47:13,263

have to be loving what they're seeing.

[all talking at the same time]

914
00:47:33,483 --> 00:47:35,686
Chaotic scenes
from the NXT women's division,

915
00:47:35,752 --> 00:47:38,155
but with me now are Trick Williams
and Carmelo Hayes.

916
00:47:38,222 --> 00:47:40,857
Carmelo, tonight you defend
the NXT North American championship

917
00:47:40,924 --> 00:47:42,960
against Tony D'Angelo, how do you feel?

918
00:47:43,026 --> 00:47:44,361
Wait, how do I feel?

919
00:47:44,428 --> 00:47:45,929
The question should be, "Tony D'Angelo,

920
00:47:45,996 --> 00:47:48,232
how do you feel going
against the A champion?"

921
00:47:48,298 --> 00:47:51,034
Actually, you know what, Trick Williams,

922
00:47:51,101 --> 00:47:54,071
you checked Wes Lee tonight,
how do you feel?

923
00:47:54,137 --> 00:47:56,240
I'll tell you what, I feel like money.

924
00:47:56,306 --> 00:47:57,307
You look like money.

925
00:47:57,374 --> 00:47:58,842
Hey, I took care of business tonight,

926
00:47:58,909 --> 00:48:00,844
now I pass the ball to you
so you can take care of business.

927
00:48:00,911 --> 00:48:02,579
All right, and that's exactly
what I'm going to do.

928
00:48:02,646 --> 00:48:03,914
I'm going to take care of business.

929
00:48:03,981 --> 00:48:07,150
If it's two Stacks, Two Dimes, Legado.

930
00:48:07,217 --> 00:48:08,252
El Dorado.

931
00:48:08,318 --> 00:48:10,287
It doesn't matter,
business is getting handled,

932
00:48:10,354 --> 00:48:12,823
because everybody wants next,

933
00:48:12,890 --> 00:48:15,359
but the only thing next
that they're going to be

934
00:48:15,425 --> 00:48:20,130
is the next to take an L
to the A champion.

935
00:48:20,197 --> 00:48:21,098
The next bums.

936
00:48:21,164 --> 00:48:23,000
Because that is all it is.

937
00:48:23,066 --> 00:48:25,102
And that's all it's going to be.

938
00:48:28,772 --> 00:48:30,507

945
00:48:49,126 --> 00:48:50,394
[Vic] You bring up big matches,

946
00:48:50,460 --> 00:48:52,996
Cameron Grimes
certainly has a big match coming up

947
00:48:53,063 --> 00:48:56,667
for the NXT title
at The Great American Bash.

948

here on NXT.

[rap music plays]

951
00:49:07,344 --> 00:49:09,980
Welcome back to NXT,
I'm now joined by Indi Hartwell.

952
00:49:10,047 --> 00:49:11,782
Indi, you seem to be gaining momentum
here at NXT.

953
00:49:11,848 --> 00:49:13,317
Yes, you see that main event last week?

954
00:49:13,383 --> 00:49:15,419
-Yes--
-Excuse me, McKenzie,

955
00:49:15,485 --> 00:49:18,188
why are we wasting
valuable television time

956
00:49:18,255 --> 00:49:20,958
on a superstar like Ms. Hartwell?

957
00:49:21,024 --> 00:49:23,193
You saw what happened last week, right?

958
00:49:23,260 --> 00:49:25,629
I did, but I don't deal with emotions,

959
00:49:25,696 --> 00:49:28,999
I deal with facts and figures,
because they don't lie.

960
00:49:29,533 --> 00:49:30,934
The truth hurts,

961
00:49:31,001 --> 00:49:32,302
and the truth is, Indi,

962
00:49:32,369 --> 00:49:34,971
you give the women's movement a bad name.

963
00:49:35,038 --> 00:49:37,874
You're weak minded
and you lack the mental fortitude

964
00:49:37,941 --> 00:49:40,010
to be successful on your own.

965
00:49:40,077 --> 00:49:43,013
That's why you jump from friend to friend.

966
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,882
Oh. You're new here, right?

967
00:49:45,949 --> 00:49:47,684
Kiana, is it?

968
00:49:47,751 --> 00:49:49,720
You're very opinionated, Kiana.

969
00:49:49,786 --> 00:49:51,288
The funny thing is

970
00:49:51,355 --> 00:49:53,557
no one cares about your opinion.

971
00:49:53,623 --> 00:49:56,159
Instead of me punching you
in the face right now,

972
00:49:56,226 --> 00:49:59,329
how about you bring those stats
to the ring next week

973
00:49:59,396 --> 00:50:02,833
and I'll make you eat every word
that just came out of your mouth.

974
00:50:03,700 --> 00:50:04,801
I accept.

975
00:50:04,868 --> 00:50:07,571
Get ready to experience another failure.

976
00:50:08,105 --> 00:50:09,639
You sound very smart.

977
00:50:09,706 --> 00:50:11,875
This is NXT 2.0,

978
00:50:11,942 --> 00:50:13,944
and no one likes a bitch.

[Wade] Kiana James intent on making moves,

982
00:50:22,619 --> 00:50:24,421
but not so much friends.

983
00:50:27,557 --> 00:50:29,960
[female announcer]
Accompanied by Malik Blade,

984
00:50:30,027 --> 00:50:33,029
Edris Enofe.

985
00:50:33,096 --> 00:50:34,765
[Vic] We talk about the title match
for Cameron Grimes,

986
00:50:34,831 --> 00:50:37,768
it was Enofe who had
a title match of his own last week

987
00:50:37,834 --> 00:50:40,370
and a lot can be learned
from that contest.

988
00:50:40,437 --> 00:50:43,273
[Wade] Yes, weaved his way
into a tag championship match,

989
00:50:43,340 --> 00:50:47,677
put on a hell of a performance too
alongside his tag partner, Malik Blade,

990
00:50:47,744 --> 00:50:53,150
but the Creeds just had a little too much
proving why they hold the gold right now.

991
00:50:53,650 --> 00:50:57,087
[Vic] Grimes, of course,
said it was truly time to go to the moon.

992
00:50:57,154 --> 00:50:59,623
He challenged Bron Breakker
for the NXT title.

993
00:50:59,689 --> 00:51:04,161
What do you make of Grimes' odds
July 5th at Great American Bash?

994
00:51:04,227 --> 00:51:06,163
[Wade] Grimes is a gambler at heart,
isn't he?

995
00:51:06,229 --> 00:51:11,468
Sees it as worth the risk
to take on a man like Bron Breakker

996
00:51:11,535 --> 00:51:14,337
and pursue an acquisition
of the NXT championship.

997
00:51:14,404 --> 00:51:18,942
I like though last week we saw
a very different side to Cameron Grimes.

998
00:51:19,009 --> 00:51:22,446
We saw that guttural emotional speech
in the ring

999
00:51:22,512 --> 00:51:24,514
when he confronted Bron Breakker,

1000
00:51:24,581 --> 00:51:27,317
who saw something roar
from Cameron Grimes.

1001
00:51:27,384 --> 00:51:28,985
I think something has awoken,

1002
00:51:29,052 --> 00:51:30,821
something had snapped inside him,

1003
00:51:30,887 --> 00:51:33,723
and he truly believes
that that NXT championship

1004
00:51:33,790 --> 00:51:35,091
is coming home with him.

1005
00:51:35,158 --> 00:51:38,228
[Vic] I would say this,
and this is no slight to the man.

1006
00:51:38,295 --> 00:51:41,731
It just seems
like there's almost a different look

1007
00:51:41,798 --> 00:51:44,534
in the eyes of Cameron Grimes recently.

1008
00:51:44,601 --> 00:51:45,669
Even if you go back to just moments ago

1009
00:51:46,203 --> 00:51:48,672
when he was making his way out
to the ring here to take on Enofe.

1010
00:51:48,738 --> 00:51:49,773
[Wade] I agree with you.

1011
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:54,711
Normally a different look in his eyes,
there's a different tone in his voice.

1012
00:51:54,778 --> 00:51:56,012
A different swagger.

1013
00:51:56,079 --> 00:51:58,381
[Vic] From behind shoulders are down,
and, oh, that could've been an upset.

1014
00:51:58,448 --> 00:52:00,684
[Wade] I've knocked Cameron Grimes
at times.

1015
00:52:00,750 --> 00:52:02,486
[Vic] Inside cradle. Can Grimes get one?

1016
00:52:02,552 --> 00:52:03,420
Another kick out.

1017
00:52:03,487 --> 00:52:05,722
[Wade] Cameron Grimes right now
the joker is gone.

1018
00:52:07,891 --> 00:52:09,893
[Vic] The pace starting to quicken
in this matchup.

1019
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:14,764
Both superstars looking for the victory
as we come to a little bit of a stalemate,

1020
00:52:14,831 --> 00:52:18,568
but I want to focus on Cameron Grimes
a little bit more just for a second.

1021
00:52:18,635 --> 00:52:20,337
When we talk about Great American Bash,

1022
00:52:20,403 --> 00:52:22,138
this is a different test for Bron Breakker

1023
00:52:22,205 --> 00:52:25,275
than he has seen
in his championship reigns,

1024
00:52:25,342 --> 00:52:27,043
either the first one or the second one.

1025
00:52:27,110 --> 00:52:29,012
[Wade] Really is a very different beast

1026
00:52:29,079 --> 00:52:32,516
to anything Bron has faced thus far
in his short career.

1027
00:52:32,582 --> 00:52:36,753
Bron taking on a wealth of competitors
really over the last 12 months,

1028
00:52:36,820 --> 00:52:38,388
but nobody--

1029
00:52:38,455 --> 00:52:41,958
[Vic] Off the dropkick into the cover
and another kick out by Grimes.

1030
00:52:42,025 --> 00:52:44,294
[Wade] Nobody who can move
like Cameron Grimes,

1031
00:52:44,361 --> 00:52:46,596
one of the best movers NXT has ever seen.

1032
00:52:46,663 --> 00:52:49,699
Adding to that,
there is real unpredictable nature

1033
00:52:49,766 --> 00:52:52,802
to the personality that is Cameron Grimes.

1034
00:52:52,869 --> 00:52:57,741
Who knows how a matchup like that
between Grimes and Bron is going to go.

1035
00:52:58,275 --> 00:53:02,579
[Vic] Enofe trying to maybe quicken
the pace here against Grimes.

1036
00:53:02,646 --> 00:53:06,316
Every time Enofe makes it to the ring,
we hear he's far from a rookie.

1037
00:53:06,383 --> 00:53:09,786
He's trying to pick up a huge victory
tonight against Cameron Grimes.

1038
00:53:09,853 --> 00:53:12,189
Grimes showcasing his own athleticism.

1039
00:53:12,255 --> 00:53:13,156
[Wade] With moves like that

1040
00:53:13,223 --> 00:53:15,158
how is Bron Breakker
going to cope with this?

1041
00:53:15,225 --> 00:53:17,894
The speed, the dexterity

1042
00:53:17,961 --> 00:53:20,964
and the abilities of Cameron Grimes.

1043
00:53:21,531 --> 00:53:26,036
[Vic] Grimes is here getting more gold
on July 5th here on USA,

1044
00:53:26,102 --> 00:53:30,407
the Great American Bash,
as Grimes sets his sights on Enofe.

1045
00:53:30,473 --> 00:53:32,075
High cross body, is it enough?

1046
00:53:32,142 --> 00:53:34,578
Enofe able to kick out at two.

1047
00:53:34,644 --> 00:53:39,082
I mean, take another look,
you talk about as close as it gets.

1048
00:53:39,149 --> 00:53:43,553
Cameron Grimes got,
oh, so close to a victory here tonight.

1049
00:53:43,620 --> 00:53:47,724
[Wade] Really stacks that offense up
against his opponents,

1050
00:53:47,791 --> 00:53:49,926
keeps them moving, drops them

1051
00:53:49,993 --> 00:53:53,096
and just does not give them
any room to breathe.

1052
00:53:53,163 --> 00:53:54,764
[Vic] You see that look
that you talked about earlier

1053
00:53:54,831 --> 00:53:56,132
on the face of Cameron Grimes.

1054
00:53:56,199 --> 00:53:57,968
You talk about the tone of Cameron Grimes.

1055
00:53:58,034 --> 00:53:59,169
The things he says.

1056
00:53:59,236 --> 00:54:01,071
How about what he told Bron Breakker?

1057
00:54:01,137 --> 00:54:05,342
If he didn't have a certain last name,
he wouldn't be champion.

1058
00:54:05,408 --> 00:54:07,477
Bron's had to earn everything
in his career.

1059
00:54:07,544 --> 00:54:10,847
[Wade] Bron has passed every test
that's ever been put in front of him,

1060
00:54:10,914 --> 00:54:15,852
but did he draw the line somewhat
thanks to that famous family that he has?

1061
00:54:15,919 --> 00:54:18,288
You would have to argue yes,
that is the case.

1062
00:54:18,355 --> 00:54:19,856
That would have stunned.

1063
00:54:19,923 --> 00:54:23,026
[Vic] Speaking of stunned, look at Enofe.
Enofe says, "Bring it."

1064
00:54:23,093 --> 00:54:24,594
[Wade] He's out of his damn mind.

1065
00:54:24,661 --> 00:54:27,464
[audience cheering]

1066
00:54:31,067 --> 00:54:32,235
[Vic] Oh.

1067
00:54:32,969 --> 00:54:35,739
Well, that one certainly closed him off
from a mount of an-- oh, for a moment.

1068
00:54:35,805 --> 00:54:36,973
Look at Enofe now.

1069
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:39,376
[Wade] Awoken
something inside Edris Enofe.

1070
00:54:39,442 --> 00:54:41,278
This man can fight.

1071
00:54:41,344 --> 00:54:45,081
[audience chanting "Oh"]

1072
00:54:45,148 --> 00:54:49,052
[Vic] NXT Universe rising
with every strike from these superstars,

1073
00:54:49,119 --> 00:54:51,488
and that jumping knee rocked Grimes.

1074
00:54:51,554 --> 00:54:55,659
And look, Malik Blade
is on the outside screaming at Enofe.

1075
00:54:55,725 --> 00:55:00,330
This is Enofe's moment to knock off
one of the top superstars in this brand.

1076
00:55:00,397 --> 00:55:03,333
[audience chanting]

1077
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,469
[Wade] Edris Enofe stepping it up
week after week.

1078
00:55:06,536 --> 00:55:08,972
This is your big, big opportunity.

1079
00:55:09,039 --> 00:55:11,408
Something has awoken inside of him.

1080
00:55:11,474 --> 00:55:13,677
[Vic] Could you imagine what it would do
the psyche of Cameron Grimes

1081
00:55:13,743 --> 00:55:16,446
ahead of his NXT title match
against Bron Breakker?

1082
00:55:16,513 --> 00:55:19,549
[Wade] Far from ideal preparation
you would have to say.

1083
00:55:21,151 --> 00:55:24,487
[Vic laughs] Did you feel the impact?

1084
00:55:24,554 --> 00:55:27,457
As Enofe continuing to apply the pressure.

1085
00:55:27,524 --> 00:55:31,428
[Wade] Super eagle
taking full control of this matchup.

1086
00:55:32,228 --> 00:55:37,000
[Vic] Wait a minute, Enofe looking to fly.

1087
00:55:37,067 --> 00:55:38,101
Let's go!

1088
00:55:38,168 --> 00:55:41,137
[Vic] Adrenaline will make a man
do crazy things,

1089
00:55:41,204 --> 00:55:43,973
and Enofe now blocking out the pain.

1090
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:50,647
[audience chanting "This is awesome"]

1091
00:55:50,714 --> 00:55:55,518
[Vic] This indeed could be
the biggest win in Enofe's career.

1092
00:55:55,585 --> 00:55:57,320
Looking to fly once again.

1093
00:55:57,387 --> 00:55:58,455
Able to roll through,

1094
00:55:58,521 --> 00:56:00,824
just getting out of the way
at the last minute was Grimes.

1095
00:56:02,425 --> 00:56:04,527
Look at the strength of Cameron Grimes.

1096
00:56:05,095 --> 00:56:07,564
[Wade] Digging deep into his own arsenal

1097
00:56:07,630 --> 00:56:11,434
and what a credit that is
to the performance of Edris Enofe.

1098
00:56:12,869 --> 00:56:16,139
[audience yells "To the moon"]

1099
00:56:17,340 --> 00:56:18,575
[Vic] Cave in!

1100
00:56:20,343 --> 00:56:24,481
If Grimes can connect with the cave in
at The Great American Bash,

1101
00:56:24,547 --> 00:56:26,750
he may wear gold around his waist
once more.

1102
00:56:27,584 --> 00:56:31,354
[female announcer] Here is your winner,
Cameron Grimes.

1103
00:56:31,421 --> 00:56:33,890
[Cameron Grimes' music plays]

1104
00:56:33,957 --> 00:56:40,563
[Vic] We are looking into the eyes
of a very different Cameron Grimes.

1105
00:56:44,167 --> 00:56:46,936
What a matchup this was,
take nothing away from Enofe.

1106
00:56:47,003 --> 00:56:52,509
He literally laid it all
on the line here tonight.

1107
00:56:52,575 --> 00:56:55,145
[Wade] And this is the moment
it all turned around, though.

1108
00:56:55,211 --> 00:56:57,547
This is why Cameron Grimes is a man

1109
00:56:57,614 --> 00:57:01,684
who is a serious threat
to the championship of Bron Breakker.

1110
00:57:01,751 --> 00:57:03,953
With moves like this in his arsenal,

1111
00:57:04,020 --> 00:57:06,556
with durability like this-- bum!

1112
00:57:07,424 --> 00:57:11,761
Put that to bed, Bron Breakker,
you might be next.

1113
00:57:11,828 --> 00:57:12,829
[bell rings]

1114
00:57:12,896 --> 00:57:16,499
[Vic] For Cameron Grimes he's closing in
on the biggest match of his career.

1115
00:57:16,566 --> 00:57:18,902
Can his year become more golden?

1116
00:57:24,874 --> 00:57:28,711
[audience cheering]

1117
00:57:31,915 --> 00:57:32,916
Oh, my goodness.

1118
00:57:32,982 --> 00:57:36,419
I'm finally here in Chase U
at Peter's hall,

1119
00:57:36,486 --> 00:57:38,221
the world-famous Peter's hall.

1120
00:57:38,288 --> 00:57:41,958
[upbeat music plays]

1121
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:45,662
Hey, I'm Thea, your new roomie.

1122
00:57:47,230 --> 00:57:49,866
Whoa, hold up, you live in room 324?

1123
00:57:49,933 --> 00:57:51,034
Oh, my goodness, Bodhi.

1124
00:57:51,100 --> 00:57:52,202
I'm so sorry.

1125
00:57:52,268 --> 00:57:53,236
You live here?

1126
00:57:53,303 --> 00:57:56,172
Yeah, but you can't live here,
you're a girl.

1127
00:57:56,239 --> 00:57:57,173
Okay, wait.

1128
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,876
There are college dorms at Chase U.

1129
00:57:59,943 --> 00:58:01,344
I know. People keep saying that.

1130
00:58:03,746 --> 00:58:06,216
-Isn't that cool?
-Yeah-- [groans]

1131
00:58:06,816 --> 00:58:07,750
I'm going to go unpack.

1132
00:58:07,817 --> 00:58:11,488
[upbeat music plays]

1133
00:58:26,236 --> 00:58:28,171
So, Thea, with this Covid thing,

1134
00:58:28,238 --> 00:58:29,672
does this mean we share the room?

1135
00:58:29,739 --> 00:58:31,808
Like, we get it every other day?

1136
00:58:31,875 --> 00:58:33,643
I get it Monday, Wednesday, Friday?

1137
00:58:33,710 --> 00:58:35,044
No we're going to be roomies,

1138
00:58:35,111 --> 00:58:37,680
like real roomies, and best friends.

1139
00:58:37,747 --> 00:58:40,450
We're going to get bake everyday a win.

1140
00:58:40,517 --> 00:58:42,986
Are you so excited? I'm so excited!

1141
00:58:43,953 --> 00:58:46,623
I'm sure Mr. Chase would be so proud.

1142
00:58:46,689 --> 00:58:47,724
This is going to be so sick!

1143
00:58:47,790 --> 00:58:51,494
Yes, I'm so psyched,
and class is starting next week.

1144
00:58:51,561 --> 00:58:52,896
Are you hungry, roomie?

1145
00:58:52,962 --> 00:58:54,731
-Always.
-Let's go get some food.

1146
00:58:56,099 --> 00:58:57,133
[groans]

1147
00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:58,501
Save me a seat.

1148
00:58:59,502 --> 00:59:00,370
[groans]

1149
00:59:01,404 --> 00:59:02,538
Oh…

1150
00:59:05,041 --> 00:59:07,677
[Vic] I can only imagine
the butterflies in that room,

1151
00:59:07,744 --> 00:59:11,581
but no butterflies are on Von Wagner,
just destruction.

1152
00:59:12,348 --> 00:59:14,117
As for Brooks Jensen,

1153
00:59:14,183 --> 00:59:17,420
100% and ready
for his first action in weeks.

1154
00:59:17,487 --> 00:59:19,989
Everyone banned from ringside, next.

1155
00:59:20,056 --> 00:59:21,624
[rap music plays]

1156
00:59:23,693 --> 00:59:25,528
[Nikkita Lyons] Patience is not a virtue.

1157
00:59:26,429 --> 00:59:27,630
Patience sucks.

1158
00:59:28,598 --> 00:59:31,534
I'm a woman
who needs to be constantly moving.

1159
00:59:31,601 --> 00:59:32,802
Always working.

1160
00:59:33,736 --> 00:59:36,239
When I want something, I go and get it.

1161
00:59:36,306 --> 00:59:38,408
That's why I'm busting my ass in the gym.

1162
00:59:38,474 --> 00:59:40,543
Because once I'm cleared
from this leg injury,

1163
00:59:40,610 --> 00:59:41,811
there's no warm-up match.

1164
00:59:41,878 --> 00:59:43,947
There's no easing my way back
into the mix.

1165
00:59:44,013 --> 00:59:46,316
I'm balls to the wall.

1166
00:59:46,382 --> 00:59:49,986
NXT women's division,
this is your seven-day notice.

1167
00:59:50,486 --> 00:59:51,921
Next week,

1168
00:59:51,988 --> 00:59:53,222
I'm back.

1169
00:59:53,289 --> 00:59:54,490
[roar]

1170
00:59:58,094 --> 00:59:59,028
[Von Wagner's music plays]

1171
00:59:59,095 --> 01:00:01,531
[Vic] Well, the women's division
has been put on notice,

1172
01:00:01,598 --> 01:00:06,035
because the lion is set to roar
once again in NXT.

1173
01:00:07,737 --> 01:00:08,738
[bell rings]

1174
01:00:08,805 --> 01:00:11,774
[female announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1175
01:00:11,841 --> 01:00:13,109
Introducing first,

1176
01:00:13,176 --> 01:00:15,945
Von Wagner.

1177
01:00:16,946 --> 01:00:19,349
[Vic] Wade, this might be
a loaded question,

1178
01:00:19,415 --> 01:00:21,351
but who has the advantage tonight?

1179
01:00:21,417 --> 01:00:24,220
It's going to be an even playing field.

1180
01:00:24,287 --> 01:00:26,856
Everyone is barred from ringside.

1181
01:00:26,923 --> 01:00:29,892
[Wade] Is it ever really
an even playing field

1182
01:00:29,959 --> 01:00:31,728
when someone has to get in the ring

1183
01:00:31,794 --> 01:00:34,497
and fight one-on-one with this man,
Von Wagner,

1184
01:00:34,564 --> 01:00:36,599
with all we know he's capable of?

1185
01:00:36,666 --> 01:00:39,702
Look, we're going to get two big lads
that can fight in there tonight.

1186
01:00:39,769 --> 01:00:43,406
I'm backing Von Wagner
against anybody right now.

1187
01:00:45,141 --> 01:00:46,476
[audience cheering]

1188
01:00:46,976 --> 01:00:48,611
[female announcer] And his opponent,

1189
01:00:48,678 --> 01:00:50,647
Brooks Jensen.

1190
01:00:50,713 --> 01:00:54,651
[Vic] Jensen certainly can release
his pent-up aggression here tonight.

1191
01:00:54,717 --> 01:00:59,989
[Wade] 22 years' worth
of pent-up aggression in Brooks Jensen.

1192
01:01:00,056 --> 01:01:02,325
He's a ticking time bomb
waiting to explode.

1193
01:01:02,392 --> 01:01:03,926
And here's the deal,

1194
01:01:03,993 --> 01:01:06,896
Von Wagner for me
has shown a real mean streak,

1195
01:01:06,963 --> 01:01:11,234
and it's a mean streak that I think
Brooks Jensen at the moment is lacking.

1196
01:01:11,300 --> 01:01:13,503
Maybe this match will bring it out of him.

1197
01:01:13,569 --> 01:01:16,105
It's going to have to
if you're going to put down Von Wagner.

1198
01:01:16,172 --> 01:01:19,308
[Vic] That injured right hand
being put to the test right now,

1199
01:01:19,375 --> 01:01:22,111
you see the glove
on the right hand of Jensen,

1200
01:01:22,178 --> 01:01:24,447
and now you're just seeing
Wagner club away at Jensen.

1201
01:01:24,514 --> 01:01:27,350
Look, this is a big moment
in the career of Jensen.

1202
01:01:27,417 --> 01:01:30,086
[Wade] It's the first time
he's been flying Solo

1203
01:01:30,153 --> 01:01:32,622
in NXT in a big singles matchup,

1204
01:01:32,689 --> 01:01:36,692
no help at ringside from Fallon Henley.

1205
01:01:36,759 --> 01:01:38,528
[Vic] Jensen just threw
a spinning heel kick.

1206
01:01:38,594 --> 01:01:40,696
[Wade] Yes, I didn't see that one coming,
I got to be honest with you,

1207
01:01:40,763 --> 01:01:43,733
but he has to stand
on his own two feet now

1208
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:47,370
against one
of the most devastating forces in NXT.

1209
01:01:47,437 --> 01:01:50,740
It started well,
can he maintain this momentum?

1210
01:01:50,807 --> 01:01:51,974
[Vic] When it comes to Jensen,

1211
01:01:52,041 --> 01:01:54,110
who was called a liar
last week by Mr. Stone,

1212
01:01:54,177 --> 01:01:55,878
certainly that probably doesn't sit well

1213
01:01:55,945 --> 01:01:58,081
in the belly of Jensen-- oh!

1214
01:01:58,147 --> 01:01:58,981
Wagner.

1215
01:02:00,416 --> 01:02:02,518
[Wade] Attack on the hand once again.

1216
01:02:02,585 --> 01:02:07,290
Of course, Von Wagner injured
the right thumb of Brooks Jensen

1217
01:02:07,356 --> 01:02:09,058
not so long ago, kept him out,

1218
01:02:09,125 --> 01:02:11,527
now he seems to be going
to town on that left thumb,

1219
01:02:11,594 --> 01:02:12,929
trying to even him up a little.

1220
01:02:12,995 --> 01:02:14,464
[Vic] Focusing on the left arm,

1221
01:02:14,530 --> 01:02:17,767
and I'm sure that was the marching orders
by Mr. Stone and Sofia Cromwell.

1222
01:02:17,834 --> 01:02:20,970
[Wade] You mentioned Mr. Stone,
and he called Brooks Jensen a liar,

1223
01:02:21,037 --> 01:02:23,673
because Brooks Jensen is a liar.

1224
01:02:23,740 --> 01:02:26,509
Brooks Jensen wore a cast two weeks ago

1225
01:02:26,576 --> 01:02:28,878
for an injury that had already healed.

1226
01:02:28,945 --> 01:02:33,216
That cast came into play
and caused the defeat of Von Wagner,

1227
01:02:33,282 --> 01:02:35,084
an incredibly rare defeat.

1228
01:02:35,151 --> 01:02:37,653
It's surely angered Von Wagner.

1229
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:39,122
[Vic] That's what you were talking about,

1230
01:02:39,188 --> 01:02:44,093
trying to break the other left hand
of Brooks Jensen.

1231
01:02:44,694 --> 01:02:48,297
And Von Wagner now is on a mission,

1232
01:02:48,364 --> 01:02:50,733
and I can only imagine
who pointed him in that direction.

1233
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:51,901
Oh, come on!

1234
01:02:52,835 --> 01:02:53,703
No, no, no.

1235
01:02:53,770 --> 01:02:55,938
Oh, this-- oh.

1236
01:02:56,005 --> 01:02:58,207
[yelling]

1237
01:02:58,274 --> 01:02:59,509
[Vic] Come on, referee!

1238
01:03:00,143 --> 01:03:01,644
[Wade] Attacking those small joints,

1239
01:03:01,711 --> 01:03:04,147
incredibly easy to break and fracture.

1240
01:03:04,213 --> 01:03:07,517
Right now, Brooks Jensen must be getting
some nasty flashbacks

1241
01:03:07,583 --> 01:03:09,919
to what put him on the shelf
in the first place.

1242
01:03:09,986 --> 01:03:14,123
[Vic] Brooks Jensen just unable
to come back, and look at Wagner.

1243
01:03:14,190 --> 01:03:15,925
[Wade] This is
what I talked about earlier.

1244
01:03:15,992 --> 01:03:18,194
I talked about the mean streak
of Von Wagner.

1245
01:03:18,261 --> 01:03:22,431
This is what
every other superstar in NXT lacks.

1246
01:03:22,498 --> 01:03:24,400
The man has a sick mind,

1247
01:03:24,467 --> 01:03:27,436
and he's devastating
when he uses it to this effect.

1248
01:03:27,503 --> 01:03:30,573
[Vic] He's a sick mind because look
at those that are surrounding him,

1249
01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:32,842
Sofia Cromwell, Mr. Stone.

1250
01:03:32,909 --> 01:03:36,846
Jensen has no feeling,
has nothing left in the left arm.

1251
01:03:36,913 --> 01:03:38,514
[Wade] He's like
a one-armed bandit right now,

1252
01:03:38,581 --> 01:03:42,418
and he's got Von Wagner,
all 280 pounds swarming on him.

1253
01:03:42,485 --> 01:03:46,088
[Vic] Cover by Wagner,
Jensen able to kick out,

1254
01:03:46,155 --> 01:03:48,758
but you got to wonder

1255
01:03:48,825 --> 01:03:53,262
the status of the left hand,
hell, even the left arm.

1256
01:03:53,329 --> 01:03:55,131
[Wade] Well, our referees here in NXT,

1257
01:03:55,198 --> 01:03:56,899
they're trained to stop a match

1258
01:03:56,966 --> 01:03:58,801
if an injury comes too bad

1259
01:03:58,868 --> 01:04:01,237
that a competitor
cannot defend themselves.

1260
01:04:01,304 --> 01:04:04,907
This referee taking a very close look now,
listening to Brooks Jensen.

1261
01:04:04,974 --> 01:04:07,977
Sometimes you've got
to save a superstar from themselves.

1262
01:04:08,044 --> 01:04:09,745
[Vic] Yeah, well, there's no doubt,

1263
01:04:09,812 --> 01:04:13,082
and I'm sure right now Von Wagner
is just salivating

1264
01:04:13,149 --> 01:04:15,952
in destroying and picking apart,

1265
01:04:16,018 --> 01:04:19,488
methodically dissecting Brooks Jensen.

1266
01:04:19,555 --> 01:04:21,724
[Wade] There's a certain sick pleasure

1267
01:04:21,791 --> 01:04:24,894
that Von Wagner is taking
from this punishment,

1268
01:04:24,961 --> 01:04:28,231
that Brooks Jensen
is being forced to absorb.

1269
01:04:29,432 --> 01:04:33,236
[Vic] Wagner has obviously felt the cast
that you brought up

1270
01:04:33,302 --> 01:04:36,873
from the right hand of Jensen
against Briggs,

1271
01:04:36,939 --> 01:04:39,308
but Jensen now doing his best
to fight back,

1272
01:04:39,375 --> 01:04:40,676
trying to block out the pain.

1273
01:04:40,743 --> 01:04:43,279
We talked about adrenaline
making a man do crazy things,

1274
01:04:43,346 --> 01:04:47,049
the adrenaline
flowing through the veins of Jensen

1275
01:04:47,116 --> 01:04:48,618
in this moment.

1276
01:04:48,684 --> 01:04:50,152
[Wade] Big swing there from Jensen,

1277
01:04:50,219 --> 01:04:53,689
did not connect fully with Von Wagner,

1278
01:04:53,756 --> 01:04:55,424
but these two still slugging away.

1279
01:04:55,491 --> 01:04:58,861
Somehow Brooks Jensen managing
to get the other hand

1280
01:04:58,928 --> 01:05:01,964
despite all the overwhelming odds
against him.

1281
01:05:02,031 --> 01:05:03,466
[Vic] Look at Jensen throwing elbows

1282
01:05:03,532 --> 01:05:06,135
rather than throwing his fists
due to the damage that's been done.

1283
01:05:06,202 --> 01:05:07,303
What a DDT.

1284
01:05:08,704 --> 01:05:10,940
So much taken out of both competitors.

1285
01:05:11,007 --> 01:05:13,075
Jensen just into the cover and--

1286
01:05:14,010 --> 01:05:15,811
[Wade] Did his best to hook that leg,

1287
01:05:15,878 --> 01:05:20,149
but that ultimately was a sloppy cover,
thanks to the damage to that thumb.

1288
01:05:20,216 --> 01:05:22,418
You can't blame Brooks Jensen.

1289
01:05:22,485 --> 01:05:23,919
[audience clapping]

1290
01:05:23,986 --> 01:05:28,524
[Vic] Right now, Jensen just has to think
about the weeks,

1291
01:05:29,091 --> 01:05:33,562
the agony he was put in
at the hands of Von Wagner.

1292
01:05:33,629 --> 01:05:34,664
There's Jensen looking for--

1293
01:05:34,730 --> 01:05:36,165
high risk no reward,

1294
01:05:36,232 --> 01:05:37,300
and right back down

1295
01:05:37,366 --> 01:05:40,403
trying to hyper-extend, almost,
the left elbow is Wagner.

1296
01:05:40,469 --> 01:05:43,105
[Wade] Just like a magnet to Von Wagner,

1297
01:05:43,172 --> 01:05:46,108
and this could be good night
for Brooks Jensen.

1298
01:05:47,743 --> 01:05:51,714
[Vic] Von Wagner's team predicted
he would show dominance here tonight.

1299
01:05:51,781 --> 01:05:53,883
And Wagner does just that.

1300
01:05:53,950 --> 01:05:55,451
[Von Wagner's music plays]

1301
01:05:55,518 --> 01:05:59,021
[female announcer]
Here is your winner, Von Wagner.

1302
01:05:59,588 --> 01:06:03,392
[Vic] Brooks Jensen brought
everything he could here tonight,

1303
01:06:03,459 --> 01:06:05,828
but with everyone barred from ringside…

1304
01:06:06,395 --> 01:06:08,531
[Wade] We just got a smile
out of Von Wagner,

1305
01:06:08,597 --> 01:06:09,665
you don't see that too often.

1306
01:06:09,732 --> 01:06:12,902
He's enjoying his destructive work.

1307
01:06:12,968 --> 01:06:15,438
[Vic] Yes, it's a sick, sadistic smile.

1308
01:06:16,339 --> 01:06:18,107
Lets get to some of the replays,

1309
01:06:18,174 --> 01:06:19,241
and this is hard to watch.

1310
01:06:19,308 --> 01:06:21,177
Again, Jensen was rolling in this matchup,

1311
01:06:21,243 --> 01:06:23,379
right here turning at the last moment,

1312
01:06:24,213 --> 01:06:27,249
all the way down
onto the left elbow and shoulder.

1313
01:06:27,316 --> 01:06:31,620
Then what goes up, bam,
comes crashing down for Von Wagner.

1314
01:06:31,687 --> 01:06:33,889
And as Mr. Stone has said,

1315
01:06:33,956 --> 01:06:36,359
it's Von Wagner's world,

1316
01:06:36,425 --> 01:06:37,626
we're just living in it.

1317
01:06:39,295 --> 01:06:40,329
Mercy!

1318
01:06:43,366 --> 01:06:46,402
You got what was coming,
you knew this was going to happen.

1319
01:06:47,303 --> 01:06:48,838
You knew this was going to happen.

1320
01:06:52,842 --> 01:06:55,544
Grimes, you got a lot of heart, man.

1321
01:06:56,445 --> 01:06:58,514
That's the Cameron Grimes
I'm looking forward to facing

1322
01:06:58,581 --> 01:06:59,949
at the Great American Bash.

1323
01:07:01,384 --> 01:07:02,852
I don't think you are, Bron,

1324
01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:06,122
because if this Cameron Grimes shows up,

1325
01:07:07,823 --> 01:07:09,859
you're looking at the new NXT champion.

1326
01:07:10,659 --> 01:07:12,661
[audience cheering]

1327
01:07:15,297 --> 01:07:16,132
[Alba Fyre's music plays]

1328
01:07:16,198 --> 01:07:18,000
Careful what you wish for, Bron.

1329
01:07:18,067 --> 01:07:21,270
[Wade] Cameron Grimes
is not playing around these days.

1330
01:07:21,337 --> 01:07:25,141
[ominous music plays]

1331
01:07:27,710 --> 01:07:28,811
[bell rings]

1332
01:07:28,878 --> 01:07:31,547
[female announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1333
01:07:31,614 --> 01:07:33,249
Making their way to the ring,

1334
01:07:33,315 --> 01:07:36,051
Alba Fyre.

1335
01:07:36,819 --> 01:07:40,790
[Vic] Through the smoke
comes Alba Fyre here tonight.

1336
01:07:40,856 --> 01:07:46,529
[music continues]

1337
01:07:49,598 --> 01:07:53,335
[Vic] For Fyre,
she certainly has had this moment,

1338
01:07:53,402 --> 01:07:55,905
this match on her mind

1339
01:07:55,971 --> 01:07:58,207
for the last several weeks.

1340
01:07:59,742 --> 01:08:02,478
[audience cheering]

1341
01:08:06,415 --> 01:08:10,286
[Vic] Tonight, Alba Fyre looks
to burn her opponent,

1342
01:08:10,352 --> 01:08:12,254
next on NXT.

1343
01:08:15,791 --> 01:08:18,761
I offered each one of you purpose,

1344
01:08:18,828 --> 01:08:22,064
and you have surrendered yourselves to me.

1345
01:08:22,131 --> 01:08:25,835
You left
everything you've once know behind,

1346
01:08:26,769 --> 01:08:29,538
your home, your family,

1347
01:08:29,605 --> 01:08:34,443
all aspects of your life
were laid to rest in a realm

1348
01:08:34,510 --> 01:08:39,782
where everything was measured
by fame and championships.

1349
01:08:39,849 --> 01:08:43,052
When you discovered
that it was all just a pipe dream,

1350
01:08:43,118 --> 01:08:47,056
you found yourselves questioning
your own abilities.

1351
01:08:47,556 --> 01:08:50,025
You were planning on packing up
and going home,

1352
01:08:50,092 --> 01:08:53,629
but I was there for you.

1353
01:08:54,797 --> 01:08:59,668
I was the one that showed you
the light that is inside of you.

1354
01:09:00,503 --> 01:09:05,274
You are reborn,
ready to take on the world,

1355
01:09:05,975 --> 01:09:09,678
and you no longer
look at yourselves the same.

1356
01:09:11,447 --> 01:09:13,916
You may have tasted gold before,

1357
01:09:13,983 --> 01:09:15,951
but without intention,

1358
01:09:16,018 --> 01:09:19,021
gold is flavorless.

1359
01:09:19,088 --> 01:09:21,857
When you return to that same glory,

1360
01:09:21,924 --> 01:09:24,827
the fruit of your labor will be…

1361
01:09:27,029 --> 01:09:28,864
delicious,

1362
01:09:28,931 --> 01:09:33,369
because it will be cultivated
by an unmatched strength

1363
01:09:33,435 --> 01:09:36,038
now that you two have come together

1364
01:09:37,139 --> 01:09:40,376
under my guidance.

1365
01:09:40,442 --> 01:09:46,048
[ominous music plays]

1366
01:09:48,050 --> 01:09:52,821
[Wade] Gacy once again leaving us
with more questions than answers.

1367
01:09:52,888 --> 01:09:55,291
[Vic] That guy gives me
the heebie jeebies.

1368
01:09:56,025 --> 01:10:00,129
[female announcer]
And her opponent, Lash Legend.

1369
01:10:00,196 --> 01:10:04,967
[Vic] Let's go back.
It was two weeks ago here on NXT

1370
01:10:05,034 --> 01:10:08,137
that Lash Legend sent a message
to her opponent tonight.

1371
01:10:08,204 --> 01:10:09,338
That, of course, being Alba Fyre.

1372
01:10:09,405 --> 01:10:13,809
Right here, we see Legend, bam,
with that pump kick.

1373
01:10:13,876 --> 01:10:15,644
[indistinct]

1374
01:10:15,711 --> 01:10:17,313
What, what?

1375
01:10:17,379 --> 01:10:19,415
[Vic] Legend would continue
to talk some trash.

1376
01:10:19,481 --> 01:10:23,352
This, of course,
after Fyre already competed here on NXT.

1377
01:10:23,886 --> 01:10:25,821
And if you go back even further,

1378
01:10:25,888 --> 01:10:28,490
to NXT In Your House premium live event,

1379
01:10:28,557 --> 01:10:35,064
it was Lash Legend who was calling out
and had a few choice words to Alba Fyre.

1380
01:10:35,764 --> 01:10:39,835
[Wade] The question is,
does she realize that she has pissed off

1381
01:10:39,902 --> 01:10:43,539
one of the best in NXT in Alba Fyre?

1382
01:10:43,606 --> 01:10:44,974
It's a bold approach.

1383
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:49,645
Lash, though, she wants to make some moves
here in NXT in a hurry.

1384
01:10:49,712 --> 01:10:53,182
You got to crack a few eggs in the process
when it comes to making an omelet,

1385
01:10:53,716 --> 01:10:57,152
and Lash never minded upsetting people
along the way.

1386
01:10:59,989 --> 01:11:02,925
[Vic] And still talking trash is Legend,
and now look at Fyre.

1387
01:11:02,992 --> 01:11:05,928
She's just swinging,
trying to chop down Lash Legend.

1388
01:11:05,995 --> 01:11:08,030
You talk about some of the things
Legend has said.

1389
01:11:08,097 --> 01:11:11,967
How about mocking Alba Fyre?
Calling her Miss Fyre cracker.

1390
01:11:12,034 --> 01:11:15,004
[Wade] Yeah, to be honest with you,
Alba Fyre, she's smart enough.

1391
01:11:15,070 --> 01:11:18,040
-[Vic] Oh!
-[Wade] Let the name-calling go,

1392
01:11:18,107 --> 01:11:21,677
but knowing who Alba Fyre is,
that sneak attack that we saw,

1393
01:11:21,744 --> 01:11:25,281
that kick to the face,
the blindside attack from Lash Legend.

1394
01:11:25,347 --> 01:11:27,416
[Vic] With a quick cover and a kick out.

1395
01:11:27,483 --> 01:11:29,852
[Wade] That is what rattled
the cage of Alba Fyre.

1396
01:11:29,918 --> 01:11:33,622
Now, unfortunately for Lash Legend,
the beast has been unleashed.

1397
01:11:33,689 --> 01:11:37,326
[Vic] Look, Lash Legend trying her best
to continue to do talking last week.

1398
01:11:37,393 --> 01:11:40,763
She almost seemed to be reaching
into her past like Alba Fyre.

1399
01:11:40,829 --> 01:11:43,966
[Wade] Lash has had
some incredible accomplishments,

1400
01:11:44,033 --> 01:11:45,434
certainly in her basketball career.

1401
01:11:45,501 --> 01:11:48,937
Much like Alba Fyre, sometimes,
you've got to look into your past

1402
01:11:49,004 --> 01:11:52,274
to ignite something inside you
that is missing.

1403
01:11:52,341 --> 01:11:56,145
Lash comes from a history
of being a winner.

1404
01:11:56,211 --> 01:11:59,648
That's what she needs
to kick in here in NXT.

1405
01:11:59,715 --> 01:12:04,787
[Vic] How does basketball relate
to someone like Alba Fyre?

1406
01:12:04,853 --> 01:12:08,257
[Wade] Okay, so the basketball
is all about how Lash learned

1407
01:12:08,324 --> 01:12:10,092
to be a winner, how to dominate,

1408
01:12:10,159 --> 01:12:12,861
how to crush opponents,
how to break records.

1409
01:12:12,928 --> 01:12:14,530
Most humans on the planet--

1410
01:12:14,596 --> 01:12:16,665
[Vic] Into the cover, into the cover
and a quick kick-out again.

1411
01:12:16,732 --> 01:12:18,934
[Wade] Most humans on the planet
will never experience

1412
01:12:19,001 --> 01:12:20,703
those things that I've just explained,

1413
01:12:20,769 --> 01:12:23,839
but Lash knows all about them
from her basketball days

1414
01:12:23,906 --> 01:12:24,907
and she's hooked.

1415
01:12:24,973 --> 01:12:26,175
She wants more.

1416
01:12:26,241 --> 01:12:27,943
And she wants more here in NXT.

1417
01:12:28,010 --> 01:12:29,345
[Vic] Oh, could be looking
for that gory bomb.

1418
01:12:29,411 --> 01:12:31,914
Up goes Legend.
Legend trying her best to counter.

1419
01:12:32,915 --> 01:12:36,085
Had it sensed, obviously,
has watched some tape on Alba Fyre.

1420
01:12:36,151 --> 01:12:38,554
Now the strength of Lash Legend,

1421
01:12:38,620 --> 01:12:43,992
and look, Legend is a world-class athlete,
not just now, her entire life.

1422
01:12:44,059 --> 01:12:47,730
[Wade] She's also big and powerful
and very difficult to manipulate

1423
01:12:47,796 --> 01:12:49,365
and move around the ring.

1424
01:12:49,965 --> 01:12:52,101
Alba Fyre is finding that out.

1425
01:12:52,668 --> 01:12:53,736
[Vic] Fyre doing her best now

1426
01:12:53,802 --> 01:12:56,772
to create a little bit of separation
between her and Legend.

1427
01:12:56,839 --> 01:12:59,875
And Fyre again trying to chop down Legend.

1428
01:12:59,942 --> 01:13:01,744
Alba Fyre is a proud superstar.

1429
01:13:01,810 --> 01:13:03,679
We've seen her career in NXT UK.

1430
01:13:03,746 --> 01:13:05,748
Coming here, we talked
about reigniting herself,

1431
01:13:05,814 --> 01:13:06,849
finding her past.

1432
01:13:06,915 --> 01:13:11,086
[Wade] Look, she had a perfectly
adequate run here in NXT

1433
01:13:11,153 --> 01:13:12,988
since arriving across the Atlantic.

1434
01:13:13,055 --> 01:13:15,124
That wasn't good enough
for Alba Fyre, though.

1435
01:13:15,190 --> 01:13:17,659
She wants to be number one or nothing.

1436
01:13:17,726 --> 01:13:19,995
That is why she's reignited something new.

1437
01:13:20,062 --> 01:13:23,132
[Vic] Off the DDT, and again,
Legend able to power her way free.

1438
01:13:23,198 --> 01:13:25,634
[Wade] Many people
would've been very happy

1439
01:13:25,701 --> 01:13:28,737
with the career path
that Alba Fyre was previously on.

1440
01:13:30,539 --> 01:13:33,175
[Vic] Fyre certainly
bringing it to Legend,

1441
01:13:33,242 --> 01:13:36,645
but Legend, again, with all the strength.

1442
01:13:36,712 --> 01:13:38,981
Into the cover and a kick out.

1443
01:13:39,047 --> 01:13:43,652
That is what impresses so many
about Lash Legend is the strength,

1444
01:13:43,719 --> 01:13:47,756
unlike really anyone we've ever seen
in NXT, at least in recent memory.

1445
01:13:47,823 --> 01:13:49,525
[Wade] Look at the women's division
right now.

1446
01:13:49,591 --> 01:13:53,328
No one bigger, stronger,
more powerful than Lash Legend.

1447
01:13:53,395 --> 01:13:56,031
If she's going to take control
of that division,

1448
01:13:56,098 --> 01:13:59,902
she needs to use
that every opportunity she gets.

1449
01:13:59,968 --> 01:14:01,437
[Vic] Uh-oh.

1450
01:14:01,503 --> 01:14:03,839
Went for it earlier in the matchup.
Did not work.

1451
01:14:03,906 --> 01:14:06,341
Trying to counter,
but this time the gory bomb connects.

1452
01:14:06,408 --> 01:14:09,311
[Wade] Twice is a charm for Alba Fyre,

1453
01:14:09,378 --> 01:14:13,949
and now we get to see
the athleticism of the Fyre keeper.

1454
01:14:14,016 --> 01:14:17,052
[audience cheering]

1455
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:23,058
[Vic] Oh, we talked about watching tape
and how it pertains to basketball.

1456
01:14:23,125 --> 01:14:24,359
Oh.

1457
01:14:24,426 --> 01:14:25,828
What the hell was that?

1458
01:14:26,395 --> 01:14:28,931
[audience booing]

1459
01:14:31,166 --> 01:14:34,203
[female announcer]
As a result of a disqualification,

1460
01:14:34,269 --> 01:14:38,474
the winner of the match is Alba Fyre.

1461
01:14:40,375 --> 01:14:42,845
[Vic] Lash Legend using Fyre's own bat.

1462
01:14:42,911 --> 01:14:45,681
[Alba Fyre's music plays]

1463
01:14:45,747 --> 01:14:52,287
[Vic] Certainly not the victory
I'm sure Alba Fyre wanted here tonight.

1464
01:14:53,021 --> 01:14:54,656
Let's take another look.

1465
01:14:54,723 --> 01:14:58,527
[Wade] Lash Legend felt this matchup,
perhaps, was a lost cause,

1466
01:14:58,594 --> 01:15:01,897
but she managed
to get something out of it all the same,

1467
01:15:01,964 --> 01:15:03,098
and knowing Alba Fyre,

1468
01:15:03,165 --> 01:15:06,268
this isn't the last
we're going to hear of this rivalry.

1469
01:15:06,335 --> 01:15:08,804
[Vic] Officials checking on Alba Fyre.

1470
01:15:10,639 --> 01:15:12,841
Talk about bad sportsmanship.

1471
01:15:13,642 --> 01:15:19,014
Lash Legend sending a message
to Fyre tonight.

1472
01:15:22,818 --> 01:15:24,786
[rap music plays]

1473
01:15:24,853 --> 01:15:28,590
The Don has told Santos Escobar
he would show him how to get the job done.

1474
01:15:28,657 --> 01:15:31,126
As for the North American champion,
Carmelo Hayes,

1475
01:15:31,193 --> 01:15:33,328
when he shoots, he doesn't miss.

1476
01:15:33,395 --> 01:15:35,330
North American title on the line.

1477
01:15:35,397 --> 01:15:38,433
D'Angelo, Hayes. Next on NXT.

1478
01:15:43,171 --> 01:15:44,339
[Vic] This is huge news.

1479
01:15:44,406 --> 01:15:47,309
After what we witnessed earlier
tonight between these two teams,

1480
01:15:47,376 --> 01:15:50,879
both staking claim to an opportunity
at the NXT women's tag team titles,

1481
01:15:50,946 --> 01:15:54,550
they will face off with the winner
facing Toxic Attraction

1482
01:15:54,616 --> 01:15:56,518
at The Great American Bash.

1483
01:15:56,585 --> 01:15:57,986
[Wade] Wow, that is massive,

1484
01:15:58,053 --> 01:16:01,223
but in addition,
a verbal altercation last week

1485
01:16:01,290 --> 01:16:03,625
has now led to a one-on-one match.

1486
01:16:03,692 --> 01:16:05,561
Xyon Quinn squares off

1487
01:16:05,627 --> 01:16:09,164
against the massive Sanga
right here next week.

1488
01:16:09,231 --> 01:16:11,366
[rap music plays]

1489
01:16:12,734 --> 01:16:14,436
[Tony D'Angelo's music plays]

1490
01:16:14,503 --> 01:16:18,941
[Vic] But it is main event time this week
here on NXT.

1491
01:16:21,209 --> 01:16:25,581
And this could be a golden night

1492
01:16:26,615 --> 01:16:29,151
for the Don of NXT

1493
01:16:30,786 --> 01:16:35,223
as now we see all the family coming out.

1494
01:16:35,290 --> 01:16:37,259
Of course,
we saw some of the family earlier tonight,

1495
01:16:37,326 --> 01:16:39,294
but it has been Santos Escobar,

1496
01:16:39,361 --> 01:16:40,729
and it has been the Don

1497
01:16:40,796 --> 01:16:43,665
who've been putting in
a lot of preparations

1498
01:16:43,732 --> 01:16:46,735
for this championship showdown
here tonight.

1499
01:16:46,802 --> 01:16:52,441
[audience yelling]

1500
01:16:56,545 --> 01:17:01,883
[audience chanting]

1501
01:17:10,258 --> 01:17:13,128
[Vic] I'll throw you into the wolves,
so to speak, Barrett.

1502
01:17:13,195 --> 01:17:15,897
Does the Don add gold
to his waist tonight?

1503
01:17:15,964 --> 01:17:18,567
[Wade] Oh, what a question.
Look, I'm torn right now.

1504
01:17:18,634 --> 01:17:23,772
Tony D has succeeded
at everything he's tried here in NXT,

1505
01:17:23,839 --> 01:17:25,974
but Melo, he don't miss.

1506
01:17:26,041 --> 01:17:28,777
We are between a rock
and a hard place tonight.

1507
01:17:28,844 --> 01:17:30,679
Something has to give, though.

1508
01:17:30,746 --> 01:17:34,349
[Carmelo Hayes' music plays]

1509
01:17:34,416 --> 01:17:37,152
[Vic] And we saw Trick Williams
earlier tonight.

1510
01:17:37,819 --> 01:17:40,989
Very disrespectful to Wes Lee,

1511
01:17:41,056 --> 01:17:42,224
but we're moving on.

1512
01:17:42,290 --> 01:17:44,159
We're moving to this main event matchup,

1513
01:17:44,226 --> 01:17:50,265
and will Carmelo Hayes regret
ignoring the Don's warning

1514
01:17:50,332 --> 01:17:54,069
to stay out of the family's business?

1515
01:17:54,136 --> 01:17:59,508
[Wade] Carmelo Hayes as confident
as they come and with good reason.

1516
01:18:00,242 --> 01:18:02,944
The most important thing in his life,
though,

1517
01:18:03,812 --> 01:18:08,183
is that North American championship
around his waist.

1518
01:18:08,250 --> 01:18:11,853
Finally got it back,
but if he loses that, yeah.

1519
01:18:11,920 --> 01:18:16,358
I'm going to say he'll regret messing
with Tony D's family business

1520
01:18:16,425 --> 01:18:20,328
and that regret is going to haunt him
for a long time.

1521
01:18:20,395 --> 01:18:23,665
[music continues]

1522
01:18:25,734 --> 01:18:27,903
[Vic] Hayes locking eyes with the Don.

1523
01:18:30,639 --> 01:18:32,974
[Wade] Don's looking pretty calm
right now.

1524
01:18:33,041 --> 01:18:34,810
[Vic] Big fight feel.

1525
01:18:34,876 --> 01:18:39,114
[audience chanting "Legado"]

1526
01:18:39,181 --> 01:18:40,048
[bell rings]

1527
01:18:40,115 --> 01:18:42,417
[female announcer] The following contest
scheduled for one fall

1528
01:18:42,484 --> 01:18:47,856
is for the NXT North American
championship.

1529
01:18:48,690 --> 01:18:51,226
Introducing first the challenger,

1530
01:18:51,293 --> 01:18:54,963
the Don of NXT,

1531
01:18:55,030 --> 01:18:58,467
Tony D'Angelo!

1532
01:18:58,533 --> 01:19:00,802
That's what I'm talking about, baby!

1533
01:19:00,869 --> 01:19:02,270
Let's hear it, huh!

1534
01:19:02,337 --> 01:19:04,039
[female announcer] And his opponent,

1535
01:19:04,106 --> 01:19:10,746
he is the NXT North American champion,

1536
01:19:10,812 --> 01:19:15,317
Carmelo Hayes!

1537
01:19:15,984 --> 01:19:17,085
Again.

1538
01:19:17,152 --> 01:19:18,687
That's two times.

1539
01:19:18,754 --> 01:19:20,188
[audience booing]

1540
01:19:20,255 --> 01:19:22,390
[Vic] You heard from Carmelo Hayes.
He said, "two times."

1541
01:19:22,457 --> 01:19:28,196
Like him or not, he backed up
all his claims at In Your House.

1542
01:19:28,263 --> 01:19:32,134
[Wade] Yes, he did, and that is why
he is back to being what he does best,

1543
01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:37,472
being the A champion and representing
the North American championship

1544
01:19:37,539 --> 01:19:38,840
with class and style.

1545
01:19:46,448 --> 01:19:50,786
[Vic] This very well could be D'Angelo's
ring by the end of the night.

1546
01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:53,321
You're going to need more than that.

1547
01:19:53,388 --> 01:19:56,258
[audience chanting "Santos"]

1548
01:19:56,324 --> 01:19:57,192
Give me a break.

1549
01:19:59,861 --> 01:20:01,363
You see that?

1550
01:20:01,429 --> 01:20:05,133
[Vic] Escobar looking on,
a lot of trash talk and as you see--

1551
01:20:05,200 --> 01:20:09,171
I like what we just saw an interaction
between the Don and Escobar.

1552
01:20:09,237 --> 01:20:12,808
[Wade] Putting the family in line,
that's what a good patriarch does.

1553
01:20:12,874 --> 01:20:16,411
[Vic] Well, Tony D said he's going
to show Escobar how it's done

1554
01:20:16,478 --> 01:20:20,415
and said Legado will prove their worth
here tonight.

1555
01:20:20,482 --> 01:20:23,418
[Wade] Tony D wants to teach
the green horns like Escobar--

1556
01:20:23,485 --> 01:20:25,053
[Vic] I can't believe
you used that phrase.

1557
01:20:25,120 --> 01:20:27,722
[Wade] No, when it comes to business,

1558
01:20:27,789 --> 01:20:32,928
Tony D is an expert
in conducting family business.

1559
01:20:32,994 --> 01:20:35,130
That is where Santos
and the rest of the Legado

1560
01:20:35,197 --> 01:20:36,364
are green horns.

1561
01:20:36,431 --> 01:20:38,600
They know nothing about this game.

1562
01:20:38,667 --> 01:20:41,469
A couple of weeks ago,
Tony D joined us on commentary.

1563
01:20:41,536 --> 01:20:45,373
Tried to help Santos Escobar out
with a crowbar.

1564
01:20:45,440 --> 01:20:48,143
Escobar didn't listen and it cost him.

1565
01:20:51,213 --> 01:20:52,881
[Vic] Wait a minute.

1566
01:20:57,919 --> 01:20:59,688
Referee trying to restore order.

1567
01:20:59,754 --> 01:21:02,891
[all talking at the same time]

1568
01:21:06,461 --> 01:21:08,930
[Vic] Certainly,
D'Angelo has the numbers advantage.

1569
01:21:08,997 --> 01:21:10,031
[Wade] Yes, he does,

1570
01:21:10,098 --> 01:21:13,835
rare situation for Melo and Trick
to find themselves in this evening.

1571
01:21:13,902 --> 01:21:17,105
They are usually the ones
playing the numbers game.

1572
01:21:17,172 --> 01:21:19,574
Tony D now runs a superfamily.

1573
01:21:19,641 --> 01:21:22,077
Nobody can match his kind of power.

1574
01:21:22,143 --> 01:21:24,145
[Vic] That was an opening
for Carmelo Hayes, the champion,

1575
01:21:24,212 --> 01:21:29,017
and now breaking down
into a hockey fight for D'Angelo.

1576
01:21:29,084 --> 01:21:32,487
[Wade] D'Angelo will fight
as dirty as they come, that's for sure.

1577
01:21:32,554 --> 01:21:35,824
Melo got a touch of smoothness
there his operation.

1578
01:21:35,891 --> 01:21:38,393
[Vic] Let's also throw it out there
that for both of these superstars,

1579
01:21:38,460 --> 01:21:42,397
both men have taken huge steps
in the last 12 months.

1580
01:21:42,464 --> 01:21:45,567
[Wade] Oh. That was a huge flight
from Melo's thanks to the power.

1581
01:21:45,634 --> 01:21:47,269
[Vic] Into the cover,
we have a new champion. Melo kicks.

1582
01:21:47,335 --> 01:21:48,169
[Wade] Tony D, you'd be right.

1583
01:21:48,236 --> 01:21:51,473
It's not even been 12 months
for these two superstars in NXT.

1584
01:21:51,539 --> 01:21:55,710
They teamed together back
at men's War games in December.

1585
01:21:55,777 --> 01:22:00,882
Both shared the stage,
a star on NXT stand & deliver.

1586
01:22:00,949 --> 01:22:05,253
Both trying to make a name
competing at the top of the card.

1587
01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:07,923
These days, though,
two superstars who epitomize

1588
01:22:07,989 --> 01:22:13,295
the growth and the opportunity
that is available here at NXT 2.0.

1589
01:22:13,361 --> 01:22:16,531
[Vic] Carmelo is right
in front of the D'Angelo family,

1590
01:22:16,598 --> 01:22:19,668
and he's staring a hole
through Santos Escobar.

1591
01:22:19,734 --> 01:22:23,471
Certainly, Hayes has had
his issues with Escobar in the past.

1592
01:22:23,538 --> 01:22:26,107
Of course, D'Angelo has got
to get Hayes back in the ring.

1593
01:22:26,174 --> 01:22:28,643
The title will not change hands
on a count out,

1594
01:22:28,710 --> 01:22:30,378
only a pinfall and submission.

1595
01:22:32,714 --> 01:22:34,516
The North American title on the line.

1596
01:22:38,653 --> 01:22:43,758
Back on NXT, huge main event this week
for the NXT North American title,

1597
01:22:43,825 --> 01:22:46,561
and the Don has taken control,

1598
01:22:46,628 --> 01:22:52,200
and possibly the Don could be adding gold
to his family here tonight.

1599
01:22:52,701 --> 01:22:55,837
How does D'Angelo fix
the other issues in his family currently?

1600
01:22:55,904 --> 01:22:58,974
[Wade] Well, they haven't always gotten
along in these past couple of weeks,

1601
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:02,711
but you reason, you use words,
and if that's not accepted,

1602
01:23:02,777 --> 01:23:06,948
you use intimidation
and the threat of misfortune.

1603
01:23:07,015 --> 01:23:09,050
It's Family 101.

1604
01:23:09,117 --> 01:23:10,285
You've seen The Godfather,

1605
01:23:10,352 --> 01:23:11,920
you've seen Casino,

1606
01:23:11,987 --> 01:23:14,022
you've seen Goodfellas.

1607
01:23:14,089 --> 01:23:16,057
Horses' heads don't work,

1608
01:23:16,124 --> 01:23:18,526
burn some property down, that don't work,

1609
01:23:18,593 --> 01:23:19,761
maybe a kidnapping.

1610
01:23:19,828 --> 01:23:23,565
[Vic] Also seeing Santos Escobar
not take his eyes off Tony D'Angelo

1611
01:23:23,631 --> 01:23:25,533
or Carmelo Hayes throughout this matchup.

1612
01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:29,938
Of course, as Legado looks up
at the D'Angelo family last week.

1613
01:23:30,005 --> 01:23:33,808
[Wade] Yeah, you don't break the oath
of the royalty [indistinct] is a big deal.

1614
01:23:33,875 --> 01:23:36,211
It lasts until the grave.

1615
01:23:37,145 --> 01:23:40,782
[Vic] Hayes did admit that D'Angelo
may have the power in the streets,

1616
01:23:40,849 --> 01:23:43,752
but in the ring,
he has nothing but control,

1617
01:23:43,818 --> 01:23:46,554
and what body control from the A champion.

1618
01:23:46,621 --> 01:23:49,491
[Wade] The A champion
in between those ropes

1619
01:23:49,557 --> 01:23:52,127
he's more than a match for anybody.

1620
01:23:53,261 --> 01:23:55,463
[Vic] Hayes now just teeing off.

1621
01:23:57,165 --> 01:24:00,035
Got to make sure
he does not being disqualified.

1622
01:24:00,101 --> 01:24:03,171
Let's go back
to some of the action just moments ago.

1623
01:24:03,238 --> 01:24:05,907
Pure athleticism, plain and simple.

1624
01:24:05,974 --> 01:24:08,410
[Wade] Swinging like a leopard
in that ring,

1625
01:24:08,476 --> 01:24:13,815
ridiculous amounts of spring
to those boots of Carmelo Hayes.

1626
01:24:13,882 --> 01:24:16,084
[Vic] Nice take down,
quickly now into the cover

1627
01:24:16,151 --> 01:24:18,420
to retain his North American title.

1628
01:24:18,486 --> 01:24:21,623
D'Angelo kicking out at two and a half.

1629
01:24:22,824 --> 01:24:25,660
Again, Escobar, Williams,

1630
01:24:25,727 --> 01:24:30,131
all those on the outside
focusing on what's going on inside.

1631
01:24:30,198 --> 01:24:32,300
The North American title on the line.

1632
01:24:32,367 --> 01:24:35,070
[Wade] Stoic look on the face
of Santos Escobar,

1633
01:24:35,136 --> 01:24:38,072
who might not enjoy
his current role in life,

1634
01:24:38,139 --> 01:24:40,708
but it looks like
he's finally accepted it.

1635
01:24:42,577 --> 01:24:44,579
[Vic] Whoa, kick. I thought it connected.

1636
01:24:44,646 --> 01:24:50,418
D'Angelo able to get right
in front of the North American champion

1637
01:24:50,485 --> 01:24:52,087
and then sends Hayes up and over.

1638
01:24:52,153 --> 01:24:54,722
Now it's D'Angelo crawling
into the cover for the title,

1639
01:24:54,789 --> 01:24:58,760
and Hayes kicks out at two,

1640
01:24:58,827 --> 01:25:01,062
and almost Williams' heart
fell to his foot.

1641
01:25:01,129 --> 01:25:04,365
[Wade] Missed a beat there
in the heart of Trick Williams,

1642
01:25:04,432 --> 01:25:07,535
but of course,
the A champion takes some beating,

1643
01:25:07,602 --> 01:25:11,906
that reign of the North American champ
continues, for now at least.

1644
01:25:12,707 --> 01:25:16,144
You're not the champ. I'm the champ!

1645
01:25:16,211 --> 01:25:17,579
I'm the Don!

1646
01:25:18,746 --> 01:25:20,014
[Vic] You may be the Don,

1647
01:25:20,081 --> 01:25:22,951
but you got to put down Hayes
if you want to be the champ.

1648
01:25:24,285 --> 01:25:27,722
[Wade] Might just be
a matter of time at this point.

1649
01:25:29,491 --> 01:25:32,861
[Vic] D'Angelo is taking it
to Carmelo Hayes,

1650
01:25:32,927 --> 01:25:36,531
and, right now,
Carmelo Hayes on the back foot.

1651
01:25:40,068 --> 01:25:45,874
[Wade] Nobody has treated Carmelo Hayes
like this at any point here in NXT.

1652
01:25:45,940 --> 01:25:49,310
[Vic] D'Angelo has been
on quite the run here in NXT-- oh!

1653
01:25:50,445 --> 01:25:55,049
And this could be another gasp
for the a champion.

1654
01:25:55,116 --> 01:25:57,552
[Wade] Just another example
of giving Carmelo Hayes

1655
01:25:57,619 --> 01:25:59,287
an inch he's going to take a mile.

1656
01:26:01,656 --> 01:26:03,157
[Vic] Hayes now coming right back in.

1657
01:26:03,224 --> 01:26:05,260
Oh, he caught D'Angelo. This could be it.

1658
01:26:05,326 --> 01:26:07,996
This could be it.
Title's on the line to retain.

1659
01:26:08,062 --> 01:26:10,565
Oh-ho-ho.

1660
01:26:11,466 --> 01:26:13,401
That was close.

1661
01:26:13,468 --> 01:26:16,004
[Wade] Pin attempt there
from Carmelo Hayes.

1662
01:26:16,070 --> 01:26:20,542
Highly effective, just a millisecond away
from putting this one to bed

1663
01:26:20,608 --> 01:26:23,111
and getting that retention
he so badly wants.

1664
01:26:23,178 --> 01:26:26,147
[Vic] As close as it gets.

1665
01:26:27,982 --> 01:26:32,487
And what must be going through the mind
now of Carmelo Hayes.

1666
01:26:32,554 --> 01:26:34,556
[Wade] Smells blood at this point.

1667
01:26:39,127 --> 01:26:42,664
-[Vic] D'Angelo crawling over.
-[Wade] Both men hurting in a big way,

1668
01:26:42,730 --> 01:26:45,366
but, right now,
D'Angelo is taking the worst of it.

1669
01:26:45,433 --> 01:26:47,435
[Vic] Certainly has. Oh!

1670
01:26:49,971 --> 01:26:51,940
Nice take down. Rolling through.

1671
01:26:52,006 --> 01:26:53,174
Look at D'Angelo.

1672
01:26:53,241 --> 01:26:55,210
Have you ever seen D'Angelo do this?

1673
01:26:55,276 --> 01:26:57,212
[Wade laughs]

1674
01:26:57,278 --> 01:27:02,016
Crazy power and athleticism
from the Don of NXT,

1675
01:27:02,083 --> 01:27:04,986
finding that extra gear
when he really needs it the most.

1676
01:27:05,053 --> 01:27:08,790
[audience chanting "NXT"]

1677
01:27:08,856 --> 01:27:12,760
[audience chanting "NXT"]

1678
01:27:12,827 --> 01:27:15,797
[Vic] Listen to the NXT Universe.

1679
01:27:15,863 --> 01:27:16,998
What?

1680
01:27:17,065 --> 01:27:19,233
Wait a minute. There's Stacks.

1681
01:27:20,335 --> 01:27:21,970
[Wade] The brass knucks are out.

1682
01:27:22,570 --> 01:27:25,506
[indistinct chatter]

1683
01:27:30,912 --> 01:27:33,648
[Wade] What is Santos Escobar doing?
It's a simple job?

1684
01:27:33,715 --> 01:27:34,716
Are you kidding me?

1685
01:27:35,850 --> 01:27:37,085
[Wade] Oh, no!

1686
01:27:37,151 --> 01:27:38,620
[Vic] Right hand from Hayes.

1687
01:27:38,686 --> 01:27:39,988
Hayes hides the evidence.

1688
01:27:40,555 --> 01:27:43,891
Hayes retains the North American title.

1689
01:27:43,958 --> 01:27:45,560
[Carmelo Hayes' music plays]

1690
01:27:45,627 --> 01:27:50,798
[female announcer] Here is your winner
and still the NXT North American champion,

1691
01:27:50,865 --> 01:27:52,734
Carmelo Hayes!

1692
01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:57,338
-[Vic] Did Santos just break the code?
-[Wade] You know full well he did.

1693
01:27:57,405 --> 01:28:00,541
That was fully intentional
by Santos Escobar.

1694
01:28:00,608 --> 01:28:02,543
He just screwed the Don.

1695
01:28:06,180 --> 01:28:07,915
Give me the knucks.

1696
01:28:08,916 --> 01:28:09,851
Give it here.

1697
01:28:10,818 --> 01:28:12,320
[Vic] D'Angelo calling for it,

1698
01:28:12,387 --> 01:28:16,457
and D'Angelo knew at that moment
Carmelo Hayes was just as surprised.

1699
01:28:16,524 --> 01:28:17,558
[Wade] Couldn't believe his luck.

1700
01:28:17,625 --> 01:28:20,928
[Vic] And the referee was distracted,
bam, that right hand.

1701
01:28:20,995 --> 01:28:22,764
[Wade] Cold-cocked.

1702
01:28:22,830 --> 01:28:26,067
[Vic] And retention
for Carmelo Hayes tonight.

1703
01:28:26,134 --> 01:28:29,437
It was Santos Escobar
who earlier told the Don

1704
01:28:29,504 --> 01:28:31,839
everything is under control,

1705
01:28:31,906 --> 01:28:33,641
and in the words of the Don,

1706
01:28:33,708 --> 01:28:36,744
if he didn't walk out
with the North American title,

1707
01:28:36,811 --> 01:28:40,348
there was going to be hell to pay.

1708
01:28:40,415 --> 01:28:41,783
Santos!

1709
01:28:41,849 --> 01:28:46,421
