00:00:04,671 --> 00:00:05,638
[narrator] Then.

3
00:00:11,011 --> 00:00:11,845
Now.

4
00:00:17,450 --> 00:00:19,152
Forever.

5
00:00:23,189 --> 00:00:24,324
Together.

[crowd cheers] [NXT theme music plays]

7
00:00:30,930 --> 00:00:33,867
[Vic] Well, the vibe is up,
the charts as WWE took things

8
00:00:33,933 --> 00:00:36,102
to the extreme this past weekend.

9
00:00:36,169 --> 00:00:38,038
Hell of a celebration on raw
and we're gearing up,

10
00:00:38,505 --> 00:00:43,676
for the spookiest night of the year
a week from Saturday at Halloween havoc.

11
00:00:43,743 --> 00:00:46,813
Welcome to NXT. Of course, I'm Vic Joseph

12
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,884
and I'm excited to welcome my new
broadcast partner, a two-time,

13
00:00:50,950 --> 00:00:54,888
two-time WWE hall of famer,
the one the only, Booker T.

14
00:00:54,954 --> 00:00:57,957
Shucky quack quack.
The wait is finally over.

15
00:00:58,024 --> 00:01:00,660
Six-time champ is here at NXT,

16
00:01:00,727 --> 00:01:06,266
and guys, without any further ado,
let's get this thing cracking, man.

17
00:01:06,833 --> 00:01:09,135
[laughs]

18
00:01:12,639 --> 00:01:19,012
[Vic] I couldn't think of a better way
to start NXT with the man of the brand.

19
00:01:19,979 --> 00:01:22,515
[Bron Breakker's music plays]
[crowd cheers, bell rings]

20
00:01:22,582 --> 00:01:25,518
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

21
00:01:25,585 --> 00:01:31,958
Introducing first, the NXT champion,
Bron Breakker.

22
00:01:32,926 --> 00:01:36,563
[Vic] Book, you're looking at a man
who will defend his NXT Championship

23
00:01:36,629 --> 00:01:40,366
a week from Saturday at Halloween
Havoc against Ilja Dragunov,

24
00:01:40,433 --> 00:01:42,902
JD Mcdonagh in a match.

25
00:01:42,969 --> 00:01:46,873
He does not have to be factored
in to lose his Championship.

26
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,909
[Book] Let me tell you,
pay-per-view Halloween Havoc,

27
00:01:49,976 --> 00:01:51,644
that set my career on a path.

28
00:01:51,711 --> 00:01:54,981
Started back in the day
with my big brother, Stevie Ray,

29
00:01:55,148 --> 00:01:59,886
and I'm going to tell you, you go through
a pay-per-view like Halloween havoc,

30
00:02:00,053 --> 00:02:03,056
trust me,
you know you have gone to the limit.

31
00:02:03,122 --> 00:02:05,825
[Vic] Quite the premium live event
it will be a week from Saturday.

32
00:02:05,892 --> 00:02:08,027
We talk about Breakker and JD Mcdonagh.

33
00:02:08,094 --> 00:02:10,163
We just got word he has arrived,

34
00:02:10,230 --> 00:02:16,703
Ilja Dragunov determined as ever to once
again wear gold around his waist.

35
00:02:18,104 --> 00:02:22,509
Bron Breakker certainly is no stranger
to having the target on his back.

36
00:02:22,575 --> 00:02:25,211
[Book] It's about destiny, man.
It's all about destiny.

37
00:02:26,713 --> 00:02:31,017
His opponent, Javier Bernal.

38
00:02:31,084 --> 00:02:33,486
[Vic] This a big opportunity
for Javier Bernal

39
00:02:33,553 --> 00:02:35,588
who called himself the future--

40
00:02:35,655 --> 00:02:38,224
[JD McDonagh music plays]

41
00:02:38,291 --> 00:02:40,293
We were not expecting JD Mcdonagh.

42
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,931
We talked about that triple
threat match coming up at Halloween havoc.

43
00:02:44,998 --> 00:02:49,235
I'd love to be a fly on the wall
for that conversation,

44
00:02:49,302 --> 00:02:53,273
and I got to be honest Book,
I know this is the first night

45
00:02:53,339 --> 00:02:54,874
for you here on NXT.

46
00:02:54,941 --> 00:02:59,245
JD Mcdonagh is a superstar
that is just cut from a different cloth,

47
00:02:59,312 --> 00:03:04,217
and it looks like he is going
to be joining us on commentary.

48
00:03:04,284 --> 00:03:05,652
-[Man] What's up, kid, how are you doing?
-[Book] Looking good, you looking good.

49
00:03:05,718 --> 00:03:07,587
-[Book] very, very--
-[Vic] JD, very good to see you.

50
00:03:07,654 --> 00:03:08,955
[Book] Debonaire here. A gift to give.

51
00:03:09,022 --> 00:03:10,590
[JD] The gang's all here,
we all got a full deck.

52
00:03:10,657 --> 00:03:13,960
An ace, a king, and there's the joker
down the end.

53
00:03:14,027 --> 00:03:17,063
[Book] I like this kid, he's got a lot
of respect, and like I said,

54
00:03:17,130 --> 00:03:20,533
kid, you look very, very debonaire
if I say so myself.

55
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,136
[Vic] Not every day you're having a pint
with a king, Booker.

56
00:03:23,203 --> 00:03:25,305
[JD] Well, it's already off
to a great start.

57
00:03:25,371 --> 00:03:27,440
[Vic] JD Mcdonagh is obviously
joining us for a reason.

58
00:03:27,507 --> 00:03:29,809
You're getting a close view
to Bron Breakker

59
00:03:29,876 --> 00:03:33,246
who you'll be facing in that triple threat
match along with Ilja Dragunov

60
00:03:33,313 --> 00:03:35,515
How are you preparing for that?
Obviously, out here scouting?

61
00:03:35,582 --> 00:03:37,951
[JD] Vic, it couldn't be more
different at Halloween havoc, okay?

62
00:03:38,218 --> 00:03:40,720
I know what Bron Breakker brings
to the table now.

63
00:03:40,787 --> 00:03:43,323
I felt the spear. I'm going to adapt
and overcome,

64
00:03:43,523 --> 00:03:45,959
that's what 10 years plus of experience
gives you, okay?

65
00:03:46,025 --> 00:03:49,128
Bron doesn't have a plan B.
If plan A doesn't work, he's done.

66
00:03:49,929 --> 00:03:51,631
[Vic] Well, I look at you, Booker,
right now because you've actually

67
00:03:51,698 --> 00:03:54,667
been in the ring with Bron Breakker's
father and uncle.

68
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:56,336
What do you see out of Bron Breakker?

69
00:03:56,669 --> 00:04:00,840
[Book] Big poppa pump as well as that
dog-faced gremlin.

70
00:04:01,274 --> 00:04:03,042
First time I saw those guys I said, look,
these guys,

71
00:04:03,476 --> 00:04:06,346
they don't want no bread,
no water, just meat.

72
00:04:06,412 --> 00:04:07,780
Let me tell you something, JD,

73
00:04:07,847 --> 00:04:10,450
you better be ready for a guy
like Bron Breakker.

74
00:04:10,516 --> 00:04:11,384
[JD] You better believe I'm ready, Book.

75
00:04:11,918 --> 00:04:14,153
[Vic] Well, he's also go
to be ready for Ilja Dragunov

76
00:04:14,220 --> 00:04:15,355
You got quite the past with Dragunov.

77
00:04:15,888 --> 00:04:17,123
-[Man] Dragunov.
-[JD] I genuinely,

78
00:04:17,190 --> 00:04:20,260
I don't understand the hype
behind Ilja Dragunov

79
00:04:20,326 --> 00:04:23,863
He's like a Greek statue, pale,
he's got no arms, all right, Book?

80
00:04:23,930 --> 00:04:25,965
[Book] [Laughs] Ba-dum-bump.

81
00:04:26,132 --> 00:04:28,067
[Jd] He's everyone's favorite
punching bag.

82
00:04:28,134 --> 00:04:30,937
He takes a good beating and it's a good
job that we found each other

83
00:04:31,004 --> 00:04:33,773
because I will never ever get sick
of beating up Ilja Dragunov

84
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:35,308
[Book] You know what? I like this kid.

85
00:04:35,375 --> 00:04:38,478
This kid's got a lot
of what we call flavor.

86
00:04:38,711 --> 00:04:41,247
-[JD] That flave.
-[Vic] Well, Breakker right now

87
00:04:41,314 --> 00:04:43,549
in control and now showcasing
some of that speed,

88
00:04:43,616 --> 00:04:45,618
some of that athleticism, and that power

89
00:04:45,685 --> 00:04:46,586
-[Book] wow.
-[Vic] That makes Bron Breakker,

90
00:04:46,653 --> 00:04:48,388
the man here in NXT.

91
00:04:49,889 --> 00:04:51,891
JD, I want to back to Dragunov
for just a moment.

92
00:04:51,958 --> 00:04:54,727
You're so proud that you put Draganov
on the shelf.

93
00:04:54,794 --> 00:04:57,363
You get a sick pleasure
out of injuring those around you.

94
00:04:57,897 --> 00:04:59,966
-[JD] Listen, let me give you--
-[Man] oh.

95
00:05:00,033 --> 00:05:02,035
[Book] That was close.
That was very close.

96
00:05:02,101 --> 00:05:03,202
[Jd] Let me give a quick history lesson.

97
00:05:03,269 --> 00:05:05,338
We were in NXT UK together
and he was the champion,

98
00:05:05,405 --> 00:05:07,674
and he was telling everybody
who'd listen how good he was.

99
00:05:07,740 --> 00:05:09,676
I was telling everybody
I was the face of that brand.

100
00:05:09,742 --> 00:05:11,444
I had the whole brand
on my shoulders, right?

101
00:05:11,978 --> 00:05:15,148
He forced me out of the place,
two months later the doors close.

102
00:05:15,214 --> 00:05:18,284
What does that tell you? Am I lying?

103
00:05:19,152 --> 00:05:20,887
[Vic] I wouldn't necessarily
say, it's like that.

104
00:05:20,953 --> 00:05:21,988
[Book] It's one of those things.

105
00:05:22,422 --> 00:05:25,491
It's like when you walk out
of that curtain right there, I say,

106
00:05:25,558 --> 00:05:28,127
Do you smell that? Do you smell it?

107
00:05:28,194 --> 00:05:29,929
-[Vic] No, what?
-[Book] I smell money in this kid

108
00:05:29,996 --> 00:05:31,931
right here. That's what I'm talking about.

109
00:05:31,998 --> 00:05:32,932
[Man] Hell, yes.

110
00:05:33,833 --> 00:05:35,234
[Vic] Well, we'll see if Mcdonagh
is money.

111
00:05:35,301 --> 00:05:37,337
We'll find out a week from Saturday,

112
00:05:37,570 --> 00:05:41,607
The Halloween havoc premium live event.
Right now, it's Javier Bernal

113
00:05:42,275 --> 00:05:43,342
who is in control of this match up.

114
00:05:43,409 --> 00:05:45,945
We talk about this evening,
how about Wes Lee and Stacks

115
00:05:46,245 --> 00:05:47,580
going one-on-one later tonight?

116
00:05:47,814 --> 00:05:50,717
As the NXT champion turning things around
and we're going to find out,

117
00:05:50,783 --> 00:05:54,320
who is the next participant
in the North American Championship

118
00:05:54,387 --> 00:05:55,421
ladder match at Halloween havoc.

119
00:05:55,488 --> 00:05:58,391
That qualifying match, the third match
in the best-of-three series

120
00:05:58,925 --> 00:06:01,060
coming up next.
-[Book] Oh, beautiful.

121
00:06:01,127 --> 00:06:03,062
Shades of the old man right there.

122
00:06:03,129 --> 00:06:04,964
-[Man] Come on, Javi.
-[Book] I know I've taken that move

123
00:06:05,031 --> 00:06:08,568
right there quite many times
from old man Rick Steiner.

124
00:06:08,634 --> 00:06:10,803
[Vic] It was Javier Bernal
who questioned the brains--

125
00:06:11,237 --> 00:06:12,939
-[Man] there we go.
-[Vic] Of Bron Breakker heading

126
00:06:13,473 --> 00:06:14,574
into this match up. Tough talker.

127
00:06:15,208 --> 00:06:17,076
He is right now paying for it.

128
00:06:17,276 --> 00:06:19,345
Oh, nasty landing by Bernal.

129
00:06:20,213 --> 00:06:21,981
[Book] Got caught in the high-rent
district right there.

130
00:06:22,048 --> 00:06:23,649
Bron Breakker's on a roll right now.

131
00:06:23,716 --> 00:06:26,486
[Vic] Talking about a high-rent
district, hoisting up Bernal,

132
00:06:26,552 --> 00:06:29,622
staring a hole through you,
Mcdonagh, and what goes up

133
00:06:29,689 --> 00:06:31,224
always comes down.

134
00:06:31,390 --> 00:06:32,959
[Book] That's it right there.

135
00:06:33,493 --> 00:06:36,028
[Vic] Breaker sending a message
ahead of Halloween havoc.

136
00:06:36,095 --> 00:06:37,130
[bell rings]

137
00:06:37,563 --> 00:06:38,598
[Bron Breakker's music plays]

138
00:06:39,232 --> 00:06:40,099
[crowd cheers]
-[Book] you've got to love this kid.

139
00:06:40,166 --> 00:06:42,802
[announcer] Here is your winner--
The NXT champion,

140
00:06:42,869 --> 00:06:44,070
Bron Breakker.

141
00:06:44,137 --> 00:06:46,205
[Book] Yes, baby.

142
00:06:47,173 --> 00:06:50,476
[Vic] Breakker has not taken
his eyes off of JD Mcdonagh,

143
00:06:51,377 --> 00:06:54,514
one of the two challengers
to Breakker NXT title coming up

144
00:06:54,580 --> 00:06:57,116
in a few weeks,
a week from Saturday specifically.

145
00:06:57,183 --> 00:07:00,019
Look at Bron Breakker.
You talk about the way he moves.

146
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,023
He hits with impact.
Everything he does with precision,

147
00:07:04,457 --> 00:07:08,828
the strength, the athleticism,
and the determination of a champion,

148
00:07:09,195 --> 00:07:14,901
and a message sent from champion
to challengers by Bron Breakker,

149
00:07:14,967 --> 00:07:19,071
and what a way to kick off NXT.

150
00:07:21,808 --> 00:07:23,242
[Book] Oh, wait a minute.
What's going on here?

151
00:07:23,309 --> 00:07:24,177
What's going on?

152
00:07:24,243 --> 00:07:26,179
Is it just going to be a face-off
or what here?

153
00:07:28,347 --> 00:07:33,419
[crowd chants "Dragunov"]

154
00:07:33,486 --> 00:07:34,854
[Ilja Dragunov's music plays]

155
00:07:34,921 --> 00:07:39,592
[crowd cheers]

156
00:07:39,826 --> 00:07:41,894
[Vic] Well, for those
that do math at home,

157
00:07:42,094 --> 00:07:44,163
there is the third participant,

158
00:07:44,464 --> 00:07:47,633
and you talk about
combustible elements, Book.

159
00:07:47,700 --> 00:07:51,571
All three superstars in the NXT
Championship match are here.

160
00:07:53,506 --> 00:07:57,944
[Book] Dragunov, this kid has got a very,
very high upside.

161
00:07:58,010 --> 00:08:00,012
This guy's got a very bright future.

162
00:08:00,646 --> 00:08:07,620
[Crowd cheers]

163
00:08:11,657 --> 00:08:13,626
[Vic] You can feel the intensity.

164
00:08:14,093 --> 00:08:15,061
Oh.

165
00:08:15,595 --> 00:08:20,766
[Book] Didn't I tell you? This kid,
this JD. This kid has got some kahunas

166
00:08:20,833 --> 00:08:22,401
on him. Vic, let me tell you something.

167
00:08:22,602 --> 00:08:25,037
[Vic] Well, those kahunas are getting
beaten up right now, Book.

168
00:08:25,104 --> 00:08:27,173
Now torpedo connects.

169
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:28,274
[Book] Wow.

170
00:08:30,510 --> 00:08:33,279
[JD] Wait, that was-- you've got
to imagine

171
00:08:33,346 --> 00:08:35,314
Dragunov was aiming for Mcdonagh

172
00:08:35,381 --> 00:08:40,019
after everything Mcdonagh just said about
Dragunov, right?

173
00:08:42,221 --> 00:08:43,456
[Book] I call that misdirection.

174
00:08:43,523 --> 00:08:47,860
JD's definitely not going to be
in the line of sight in that situation.

175
00:08:47,927 --> 00:08:49,428
What are you thinking?

176
00:08:49,495 --> 00:08:51,764
[Ilja Dragunov's music plays]

177
00:08:51,831 --> 00:08:54,433
[Vic] Well, we know where
Dragunov's thoughts are.

178
00:08:54,500 --> 00:08:58,671
They're on becoming NXT champion
at Halloween havoc.

179
00:08:58,738 --> 00:09:03,776
[Music]

180
00:09:03,843 --> 00:09:07,113
Toxic attraction, I was serious
when I said I was more

181
00:09:07,179 --> 00:09:10,016
of a visual woman, so that's why

182
00:09:10,082 --> 00:09:12,451
I took Mandy Rose on a little joyride.

183
00:09:12,518 --> 00:09:14,754
No, Mandy.

184
00:09:14,820 --> 00:09:15,888
What are you doing?

185
00:09:15,955 --> 00:09:17,223
No.

186
00:09:17,690 --> 00:09:22,295
When it was over, I had a
women's title match at Halloween havoc.

187
00:09:22,361 --> 00:09:25,698
In less than two weeks
I scorched the empire

188
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:28,267
that Mandy and her friends built.

189
00:09:28,467 --> 00:09:32,805
I know Jacy and Gigi seek revenge,
but as a fire keeper,

190
00:09:32,872 --> 00:09:35,308
I never back down because where

191
00:09:35,374 --> 00:09:39,312
there's smoke there's fyre.

192
00:09:41,447 --> 00:09:45,284
[Music]

193
00:09:45,351 --> 00:09:49,589
[Vic] We're tied at one a piece
in this best-of-three series.

194
00:09:49,655 --> 00:09:51,457
The winner of this next match
will earn a spot

195
00:09:51,524 --> 00:09:55,728
in the North American Championship ladder
match at Halloween havoc.

196
00:09:56,028 --> 00:09:59,632
I know he will bring out
things we've never seen before.

197
00:09:59,699 --> 00:10:02,602
We're going to empty our play books
because it's win or go home.

198
00:10:03,502 --> 00:10:07,340
The stakes are sky-high
when the trilogy concludes.

199
00:10:07,406 --> 00:10:11,677
I get to write the final chapter.

200
00:10:12,712 --> 00:10:15,381
This is the biggest match of our careers.

201
00:10:15,448 --> 00:10:17,450
[Vic] Which one of these two
superstars will punch

202
00:10:17,817 --> 00:10:19,986
their ticket to Halloween havoc?

203
00:10:21,253 --> 00:10:24,023
High stakes on the line next.

204
00:10:26,892 --> 00:10:33,065
[Axiom's music plays]

205
00:10:37,603 --> 00:10:41,340
[Vic] Book, I hope you are buckled
in for this next contest

206
00:10:41,407 --> 00:10:45,645
with two of the highest
high-flyers in NXT.

207
00:10:47,079 --> 00:10:49,081
[Book] I'm not going to sit
here and pretend to know a whole lot

208
00:10:49,148 --> 00:10:50,249
about this kid but--
[announcer] the following is the final

209
00:10:50,316 --> 00:10:52,284
match of the best-of-three series,

210
00:10:52,351 --> 00:10:55,588
a qualifierfor the North
American Championship

211
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:57,656
ladder match at Halloween havoc.

212
00:10:57,723 --> 00:11:01,093
[announcer] Introducing first, Axiom.

213
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:02,728
[Book] To finish my thought,

214
00:11:02,795 --> 00:11:07,533
but what I have heard
Is this kid is dynamite.

215
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,835
[Vic] To be very honest, first night here,

216
00:11:09,902 --> 00:11:14,240
first night seeing Axiom first-hand,
but what are your thoughts

217
00:11:14,607 --> 00:11:15,441
about this superstar?

218
00:11:15,508 --> 00:11:17,943
[Book] The one thing about the masked
superstar, [Indistinct]

219
00:11:19,278 --> 00:11:23,149
the Rey my sterios, they've always
been able to make me feel

220
00:11:23,482 --> 00:11:27,086
something with their body language.
Just the walk of this kid,

221
00:11:27,153 --> 00:11:29,722
Axiom, it tells me a whole lot about him.

222
00:11:29,989 --> 00:11:32,591
[JD] You bring up Rey Mysterio,
and our minds and hearts

223
00:11:32,658 --> 00:11:33,859
go to Rey Mysterio for what he's dealing
with,

224
00:11:33,926 --> 00:11:37,196
Dominik and the rest of judgment
day on raw.

225
00:11:37,263 --> 00:11:38,130
[Book] Definitely.

226
00:11:47,573 --> 00:11:50,209
[Nathan Frazer's music plays]

227
00:11:50,276 --> 00:11:54,313
[announcer] Next, his opponent,
Nathan Frazer.

228
00:11:54,380 --> 00:11:58,150
[Vic] Trilogy comes to an end tonight.
It was Frazer who said last week,

229
00:11:58,217 --> 00:12:00,219
he blocks out the noise.
He did it to even the series,

230
00:12:00,686 --> 00:12:03,355
he's going to do it tonight
to win the series.

231
00:12:03,422 --> 00:12:06,525
Book, I come to you now and go,
how tough are these sort of matches?

232
00:12:06,592 --> 00:12:09,929
I think of the best-of-five
series you had with John Cena.

233
00:12:10,696 --> 00:12:13,032
[Book] You got to put yourself
in that frame of mind

234
00:12:13,099 --> 00:12:16,235
to where you got to go out there and just
let it all hang out in the ring.

235
00:12:16,836 --> 00:12:19,972
Back in the day, we'd say,
" you can't phone it in." Today,

236
00:12:20,039 --> 00:12:22,108
these guys cannot text it in.

237
00:12:22,641 --> 00:12:23,709
I'm going to tell you something
about Frazer,

238
00:12:24,110 --> 00:12:26,245
This guy is high-octane, action-packed,

239
00:12:26,312 --> 00:12:29,582
and looking to be a standout
here tonight in NXT.

240

[bell rings]

241
00:12:31,517 --> 00:12:33,219
[Vic] Well, a lot at stake. It's not only
bragging rights,

242
00:12:33,285 --> 00:12:35,988
but how about the winner
of this match up will be the final person

Championship ladder

00:12:39,325 --> 00:12:41,327
match at Halloween havoc, a week
from this Saturday?

245
00:12:41,393 --> 00:12:42,528
How hard is it, Book,

246
00:12:42,962 --> 00:12:45,898
when you're in the ring
and you're competing not to look ahead

247
00:12:46,065 --> 00:12:48,434
to a match like that, that opportunity?

248
00:12:48,501 --> 00:12:51,637
[Book] The thing is, you got
to think ahead, Vic, because--

249
00:12:51,971 --> 00:12:55,207
almost got a three-count there.
You're always thinking about

250
00:12:55,274 --> 00:12:59,178
trying to get to that point. You do not
want to get injured along the way.

251
00:12:59,245 --> 00:13:01,313
You can get hurt, that's part of the game,

252
00:13:01,380 --> 00:13:03,182
but you do not want to get injured.

253
00:13:03,249 --> 00:13:04,617
That's what these guys are thinking
about right now.

254
00:13:05,451 --> 00:13:09,054
[JD] Well, these two have battled in such
great matches in the first two.

255
00:13:09,288 --> 00:13:12,224
It's been so close, razor-thin close.

256
00:13:12,291 --> 00:13:13,659
[Book] Beautiful headlock takeover
there by Axiom.

257
00:13:13,726 --> 00:13:15,161
[JD] How do you step up and change
your game?

258
00:13:15,227 --> 00:13:18,364
[Book] That's the thing.
I just said, it's one of those

259
00:13:18,430 --> 00:13:21,600
things to where you got to have
a no off-- you got to have

260
00:13:21,667 --> 00:13:23,269
everything in mind.

261
00:13:23,335 --> 00:13:26,305
You got to have not just one,
two, three gears,

262
00:13:26,372 --> 00:13:29,041
you got to have a fourth gear.
That's what I think Axiom--

263
00:13:29,108 --> 00:13:31,410
right now you look at how fluid
his movements are.

264
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:32,912
-[Book] He's looking at
-[Vic] whoa.

265

[Book] Cashing in and getting to that big
match at Halloween havoc.

266
00:13:36,749 --> 00:13:38,317
[Vic] There you see Nathan Frazer
trained by Seth Rollins.

267
00:13:38,384 --> 00:13:41,987
Axiom now coming right back in.
Oh, and he caught Frazer.

268
00:13:42,354 --> 00:13:46,091
Quickly now looking for a submission.
This has been Axiom's strong point,

269
00:13:46,325 --> 00:13:50,296
Is his technical ability, his submission
prowess. As Frazer rolls right through

270
00:13:50,362 --> 00:13:52,064
into a cover, and another near fall.

271
00:13:52,131 --> 00:13:55,734
When you're battling one of your friends,
how difficult is it to go toe-to-toe

272
00:13:55,801 --> 00:13:57,069
with someone you're so familiar with?

273
00:13:57,136 --> 00:13:58,771
[Book] Wow. [Vic] Whoa.

274
00:13:58,838 --> 00:14:02,341
[Book] Beautiful combination
and transition right there. To your point,

275
00:14:03,409 --> 00:14:06,245
to the point that mean when you got
a best friend you're going--

276
00:14:07,146 --> 00:14:09,682
you know what this thing is all about,
you know it's all about

277
00:14:09,848 --> 00:14:10,749
going out there and winning.

278
00:14:10,816 --> 00:14:14,286
It's all about going to the pay
window at the end of the day.

279
00:14:14,353 --> 00:14:17,323
[Vic] NXT universe showcasing their love,
showcasing their support

280
00:14:17,389 --> 00:14:19,992
for both these superstars.
Nice move by Frazer,

281
00:14:20,059 --> 00:14:22,261
nice counter by Axiom.
This goes back, Book,

282
00:14:22,328 --> 00:14:26,065
to what you were just saying,
knowing each other so very well.

283
00:14:26,131 --> 00:14:28,434
Also, not only is this night
getting bigger,

284
00:14:28,500 --> 00:14:31,237
that huge triple threat number
one contenders tag team

285
00:14:31,303 --> 00:14:33,706
title match still to come here on NXT.

286
00:14:33,772 --> 00:14:36,475
A little bit of a stalemate
right here and this is what

287
00:14:36,542 --> 00:14:38,978
I was trying to get to earlier,
Book in my questioning to you,

288
00:14:39,545 --> 00:14:42,581
is the difference going to be that rabbit
that someone can pull out?

289
00:14:42,648 --> 00:14:44,750
Is the difference going to be changing
it up in the last minute,

290
00:14:44,817 --> 00:14:46,886
going from a righty to a southpaw?

291
00:14:47,319 --> 00:14:50,789
[Book] It's one of those things
that at the end of the day,

292
00:14:50,856 --> 00:14:53,859
it's going to be who has the most
left in the tank

293
00:14:53,926 --> 00:14:58,430
or who has the better game plan,
who has the bigger playbook?

294
00:14:58,731 --> 00:15:00,532
We're going to find out here tonight.

295
00:15:00,599 --> 00:15:02,801
[Vic] The first two matches
were so very close. Again,

296
00:15:02,868 --> 00:15:05,838
shoulders down and another
kick out by Frazer.

297
00:15:05,905 --> 00:15:09,375
Now you're seeing a little bit of a test
of strength between these two superstars

298
00:15:09,441 --> 00:15:14,446
who are really just showcasing
what the future is about here in NXT.

299
00:15:14,647 --> 00:15:17,116
[Book] He's trying to slow it down
a little bit, trying to change

300
00:15:17,182 --> 00:15:18,717
the pace just a little bit.

301
00:15:19,351 --> 00:15:20,286
[Vic] Oh.

302
00:15:20,352 --> 00:15:22,288
Shoulder just getting
up at the last minute.

303
00:15:22,354 --> 00:15:24,657
Now it's back and forth
between these two superstars.

304
00:15:24,723 --> 00:15:28,560
Another kick out, this time the left
shoulder off the mat of Axiom.

305
00:15:28,627 --> 00:15:35,267
Just the athletic ability-- oh. Again,
Frazer one step ahead of Axiom.

306
00:15:35,334 --> 00:15:37,803
Axiom, though, turning things
around and now starting to take

307
00:15:38,037 --> 00:15:39,838
apart the body of Nathan Frazer.

308
00:15:39,905 --> 00:15:44,209
Systematically dissecting Frazer
but taking a little bit too much time.

309
00:15:44,276 --> 00:15:45,811
Frazer to the top.

310
00:15:46,245 --> 00:15:47,413
[Book] That quick right there by Frazer,

311
00:15:47,479 --> 00:15:50,683
but caught off position
right there by Axiom.

312
00:15:51,116 --> 00:15:53,452
[Vic] Both these superstars
know what is at stake.

313
00:15:53,519 --> 00:15:57,323
What's on Frazer's mind right now?
Frazer--

314
00:15:57,389 --> 00:15:59,058
[Book] oh.

315
00:15:59,124 --> 00:16:02,428
[Vic] Nasty landing, high risk no reward.

316
00:16:12,371 --> 00:16:13,372
Back live on NXT.

317
00:16:13,439 --> 00:16:18,911
This is match three in the best-of-three
series between Axiom, Nathan Frazer.

318
00:16:18,978 --> 00:16:21,280
The winner also moving
on to Halloween havoc

319
00:16:21,347 --> 00:16:24,416
in the North American
Championship ladder match.

320
00:16:24,583 --> 00:16:28,387
Booker, you said this was going
to be high-octane-- oh, nasty landing.

321
00:16:28,554 --> 00:16:31,056
You said this was going
to be action-packed, this match

322
00:16:31,123 --> 00:16:36,495
has been so physical between these two
superstars who know what is at stake.

323
00:16:36,562 --> 00:16:38,797
As Frazer right now bending Axiom,

324
00:16:38,864 --> 00:16:41,333
and how the hell did he counter
that into a cover?

325
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:42,234
Oh.

326
00:16:42,401 --> 00:16:44,136
-[Book] Wow. Almost had it.
-[Vic] Almost punched his ticket

327
00:16:44,203 --> 00:16:46,038
to Halloween havoc.
[Book] There you see Frazer,

328
00:16:46,105 --> 00:16:47,773
you see Axiom-- [Vic] oh.

329
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,409
[Book] Both of these men
are tremendous athletes,

330
00:16:50,476 --> 00:16:52,378
looking like a they're set
to make a statement

331
00:16:52,444 --> 00:16:54,880
here tonight and move
onto Halloween havoc.

332
00:16:54,947 --> 00:16:59,485
[Vic] Axiom caught fraze. Into the cover,
center of the ring, to advance--

333
00:16:59,551 --> 00:17:01,120
and that was close.

334
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,188
[Book] Three-quarters right there.
[Vic] Whoo.

335
00:17:03,655 --> 00:17:04,823
[Book] Almost got it.

336
00:17:04,890 --> 00:17:09,762
[Vic] Take another look at some
of this offense from Axiom.

337
00:17:09,828 --> 00:17:14,566
Then he followed that up by taking
to the air and flying with such ease.

338
00:17:14,933 --> 00:17:16,802
[Book] Beautiful.

339
00:17:16,869 --> 00:17:19,805
[Vic] Almost captured the victory.

340
00:17:19,872 --> 00:17:22,074
Again, the NXT universe
showcasing the love,

341
00:17:22,141 --> 00:17:23,942
the support for both these superstars.

342
00:17:24,009 --> 00:17:27,012
Was that suplex perfect enough? It wasn't.

343
00:17:27,079 --> 00:17:28,914
[Book] Oh, that close.
[Vic] Just able to get the shoulder up.

344
00:17:29,148 --> 00:17:31,817
[Book] Tell you, this Axiom
is a extraordinary talent.

345
00:17:31,984 --> 00:17:35,554
This guy can pretty much do it all.
The only thing he hadn't done

346
00:17:35,621 --> 00:17:36,622
is got the three-count.

347
00:17:36,955 --> 00:17:38,891
-[Vic] Oh.
-[Book] Oh, almost-- man.

348
00:17:39,291 --> 00:17:42,995
[Vic] Right out here in front of us,
we can see the welts on the back of Axiom.

349
00:17:43,062 --> 00:17:47,232
Such a hard-hitting contest this has been
between these two superstars Book,

350
00:17:47,399 --> 00:17:50,569
I think we can all agree,
the future is bright here in NXT.

351
00:17:50,636 --> 00:17:53,105
[Book] Tell you, these young stars
are definitely turning it up tonight.

352
00:17:53,672 --> 00:17:57,509
You talk about high-impact, high-contact.
Oh.

353
00:17:57,676 --> 00:18:01,280
[Book] This is a confrontation
of all confrontations here tonight at NXT.

354
00:18:01,346 --> 00:18:02,481
Inside, let's go.

355
00:18:03,949 --> 00:18:06,919
[Vic] One Both these superstars
willing to destroy

356
00:18:07,086 --> 00:18:12,157
one another to punch
their ticket to Halloween havoc,

357
00:18:12,224 --> 00:18:17,329
but also pull out the third match
in this friendly competition.

358
00:18:18,063 --> 00:18:20,466
-[Book] This is Tuesday night.
This Tuesday night. Can you imagine--

359
00:18:20,666 --> 00:18:22,034
[Vic] referee's up to seven.

360
00:18:22,201 --> 00:18:23,335
[Book] Can you imagine Halloween havoc--

361
00:18:23,402 --> 00:18:25,637
-[Vic] Axiom's right there at eight.
-[Book] Come on, come on.

362
00:18:25,704 --> 00:18:26,672
[Vic] Nine.

363
00:18:26,738 --> 00:18:28,807
-[Book] Don't let-- oh,
-[Vic] wow.

364
00:18:28,874 --> 00:18:30,275
[JD] Frazer right there to capitalize.

365
00:18:30,342 --> 00:18:33,512
[Book] That's got to be it right there.
Just cover him, kid. Just cover him.

366
00:18:33,579 --> 00:18:35,747
[JD] Damn near took Axiom's head off.

367
00:18:35,814 --> 00:18:39,551
Frazer knows he might
need a little bit extra.

368
00:18:39,618 --> 00:18:41,386
Climbing to the top.

369
00:18:41,453 --> 00:18:43,822
Oh, but got caught, got caught.
Book, he got caught.

370
00:18:43,889 --> 00:18:46,191
[Book] Fell right into that
arm bar right there.

371
00:18:46,358 --> 00:18:48,994
[JD] Looking to put him out, trying
to get the submission is Axiom.

372
00:18:49,061 --> 00:18:51,964
He's got to watch his shoulders, though,
Book, does Axiom, they're down.

373
00:18:52,030 --> 00:18:53,632
Oh. [Book] He's going to trip.

374
00:18:53,699 --> 00:18:55,267
[JD] Another counter,
another counter, and again,

375
00:18:55,334 --> 00:18:56,335
It's Axiom again.

376
00:18:56,401 --> 00:18:57,469
[Book] Beautiful transition.

377
00:18:57,536 --> 00:19:01,373
[JD] Oh, look at the torque
on the left shoulder of Frazer.

378
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,510
Is Frazer going to tap?
Is Frazer going to submit?

379
00:19:04,676 --> 00:19:07,446
[Book] I talk about that playbook,
I talk about being

380
00:19:07,513 --> 00:19:10,082
one, two, three steps ahead.
I'm going to tell you, Axiom

381
00:19:10,149 --> 00:19:12,684
is a guy that's been working on his game.

382
00:19:12,751 --> 00:19:17,623
[crowd chants "NXT"]

383
00:19:17,689 --> 00:19:19,224
-[Book] Listen to the people.
-[Vic] Yes.

384
00:19:19,291 --> 00:19:20,158
[chuckles]

385
00:19:20,225 --> 00:19:23,028
These two the epitome
of what NXT is all about.

386
00:19:23,095 --> 00:19:25,164
Frazer, though, creating
a little bit of separation.

387
00:19:25,230 --> 00:19:27,032
[Book] Oh, wow.

388
00:19:27,099 --> 00:19:28,934
I'm going to tell you,
this is why I came to NXT,

389
00:19:29,001 --> 00:19:32,671
to watch this kind of action each
and every week. I'm going to tell you,

390
00:19:32,738 --> 00:19:36,842
the people there's the stamp of approval
right there. Here we go.

391
00:19:36,909 --> 00:19:38,277
[Vic] Whoa.

392
00:19:38,343 --> 00:19:40,612
[crowd cheers]

393
00:19:40,679 --> 00:19:42,748
[JD] Axiom turning into
a human highlight reel.

394
00:19:42,814 --> 00:19:44,783
He's going to get Frazer
back into the ring.

395
00:19:44,850 --> 00:19:48,487
Axiom wants to earn this victory.
Axiom wants the one, two, three,

396
00:19:48,554 --> 00:19:52,224
to go to Halloween havoc.
How in the hell is Frazer moving?

397
00:19:52,291 --> 00:19:54,393
-[Book] Cat quick right there.
-[Vic] Superplex.

398
00:19:54,459 --> 00:19:57,596
Frazer holding on.
[Book] Chuckie, Duckie, here we go.

399
00:19:57,663 --> 00:19:59,031
[JD] Counter. What a counter
into another submission.

400
00:19:59,565 --> 00:20:00,999
[Book] What a match.

401
00:20:01,066 --> 00:20:02,534
[Vic] Axion trying his best
to put down Frazer.

402
00:20:02,601 --> 00:20:04,970
Frazer doing his best to trying
to get back to his center.

403
00:20:05,037 --> 00:20:08,440
[Book] Doesn't have it locked in yet,
though. Don't have it locked in quite yet.

404
00:20:08,507 --> 00:20:11,944
[Vic] Getting back to his feet and some
how getting over to the top rope.

405
00:20:12,010 --> 00:20:12,945
[Book] That's legal.
That's legal right there.

406
00:20:13,011 --> 00:20:13,946
[Vic] Oh.

407
00:20:14,012 --> 00:20:16,848
[Vic] What a kick by Axiom.
What a counter by Frazer.

408
00:20:17,849 --> 00:20:19,251
Oh.

409
00:20:19,318 --> 00:20:20,986
How are these two standing?

410
00:20:22,788 --> 00:20:24,556
Couple of swing and a miss
counter offense.

411
00:20:24,623 --> 00:20:28,627
Axiom just able to get his right foot
up and then both superstars collide.

412
00:20:28,694 --> 00:20:30,729
Knees buckling, bodies bending.

413
00:20:30,796 --> 00:20:34,566
Who is going to win?
Who is going to Halloween havoc?

414
00:20:34,633 --> 00:20:40,505
[applause]

415
00:20:40,572 --> 00:20:43,342
-[JD] What a match indeed.
-[Book] Wow.

416
00:20:43,408 --> 00:20:44,243
[crowd chants "NXT"]

417
00:20:44,309 --> 00:20:47,079
[Vic] You said it earlier,
listen to the people.

418
00:20:48,780 --> 00:20:51,383
[Book] You talk about what's keeping
these guys going,

419
00:20:51,450 --> 00:20:53,719
I'm going to tell you, it's the people.
The people actually

420
00:20:53,785 --> 00:20:57,089
are that sixth man,
that motivating factor.

421
00:20:59,725 --> 00:21:00,626
[Vic] At this point, Book,

422
00:21:00,692 --> 00:21:04,630
I mean what is it going to take to keep
the other down?

423
00:21:04,696 --> 00:21:07,633
[Book] Let me tell you, several
times in this match up

424
00:21:07,699 --> 00:21:09,501
I thought Axiom had the upper hand,

425
00:21:09,568 --> 00:21:11,703
several times I thought Nathan Frazer
had the upper hand,

426
00:21:11,770 --> 00:21:13,705
and right now it's just a Donnybrook.

427
00:21:14,206 --> 00:21:17,142
[crowd] Oh-ho-ho-ho.

428
00:21:17,209 --> 00:21:19,311
[Vic] Again, Axiom trying to counter.
[Book] Oh, here we go.

429
00:21:19,378 --> 00:21:20,379
-[Vic] Wait a minute.
-[Book] Backslide.

430
00:21:20,445 --> 00:21:22,714
[JD] Shoulders are down.
Shoulders are down for both superstars.

431
00:21:22,781 --> 00:21:23,682
[Book] Wow.

432
00:21:23,749 --> 00:21:24,983
[JD] Did I see that right?
[Book] I think you did.

433
00:21:25,050 --> 00:21:26,084
[JD] Oh.

434
00:21:26,151 --> 00:21:28,920
Axiom took his eye off the ball,
comes right back.

435
00:21:30,355 --> 00:21:31,356
[Book] Oh.

436
00:21:31,423 --> 00:21:32,257
-[JD] What a knee.
-[Book] The knee.

437
00:21:32,324 --> 00:21:36,294
[JD] Frazer could be out. [crowd cheers]

438
00:21:36,361 --> 00:21:39,831
[Vic] Axiom sensing it.

439
00:21:39,898 --> 00:21:41,533
[Book] Let me tell you, that big knee
that was an equilibrium shot,

440
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,001
caught him right behind the ear.

441
00:21:43,068 --> 00:21:44,770
[JD] Wait a minute, getting
his shoulders down one more time.

442
00:21:44,836 --> 00:21:46,905
Frazer rolling through.
Counter for counter.

443
00:21:46,972 --> 00:21:48,073
-[Book] Wow.
-[JD] Again, another counter.

444
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:48,974
[Book] That's it.

445
00:21:49,041 --> 00:21:51,443
[JD] Frazer holding on and,
oh, Frazer has done it.

446
00:21:51,510 --> 00:21:52,344
[bell rings]

447
00:21:52,411 --> 00:21:56,048
-[JD] Frazer headed to Halloween havoc.
-[Book] Oh, oh, oh. Wow.

448
00:21:56,114 --> 00:21:59,785
[announcer] Here is your winner,
Nathan Frazer.

449
00:22:00,218 --> 00:22:04,322
[Vic] Book, you weren't here
for the first two, they were as close

450
00:22:04,823 --> 00:22:10,162
as close could be,
and what a third and decisive fall.

451
00:22:10,228 --> 00:22:13,298
What a match both these
superstars just put on.

452
00:22:13,365 --> 00:22:15,467
[Book] I hate to say we had a loser
in this match because

453
00:22:15,534 --> 00:22:18,904
both of these young men took
it to another level, but Nathan Frazer

454
00:22:18,970 --> 00:22:23,075
just stamped his ticket
to Halloween havoc.

455
00:22:23,141 --> 00:22:26,845
[JD] You talked about the high
octane, the action packed,

456
00:22:26,912 --> 00:22:30,148
The flying just all on the line,

457
00:22:30,215 --> 00:22:33,585
everything from both these superstars
tonight to not only win,

458
00:22:33,652 --> 00:22:35,554
to prove that they're the best,

459
00:22:35,620 --> 00:22:39,991
to prove that they are worthy
of a spotlight of Halloween havoc.

460
00:22:40,058 --> 00:22:43,328
Take a look at Axiom who brought
his a-game to action.

461
00:22:43,395 --> 00:22:48,500
Counter for counter, move for move,
submission for submission, hold for hold.

462
00:22:48,567 --> 00:22:50,435
Somehow and someway
Frazer was able to get out

463
00:22:50,502 --> 00:22:55,307
and then these two continued to punch
each other in the mouth,

464
00:22:55,374 --> 00:23:00,011
couldn't keep the other one down.
What would it take to win this match up?

465
00:23:00,078 --> 00:23:03,381
Again, it just came down to three seconds

466
00:23:03,448 --> 00:23:08,720
razor-thin counter for these two
superstars for Nathan Frazer

467
00:23:08,787 --> 00:23:14,860
to come away with the victory, and damn,
brook, if that wasn't exciting to watch.

468
00:23:15,494 --> 00:23:17,562
[Book] I would add to that,
but you said it all.

469
00:23:17,629 --> 00:23:19,931
[JD laughs]

470
00:23:19,998 --> 00:23:22,834
[Vic] Look at the field.
It's set, Frazer, Wagner,

471
00:23:22,901 --> 00:23:26,638
Lee, mensah, Hayes, all five superstars.

472
00:23:26,705 --> 00:23:30,275
Who will climb the ladder?
Who will retrieve the gold?

473
00:23:30,342 --> 00:23:31,977
Who will become NXT North

474
00:23:32,043 --> 00:23:37,115
america champion one week
from Saturday at Halloween havoc?

475
00:23:46,892 --> 00:23:48,193
Excuse me, Ilja.

476
00:23:48,260 --> 00:23:49,428
Before you head out I have to ask,

477
00:23:49,494 --> 00:23:52,631
was that headbutt intended for Braun?

478
00:23:52,697 --> 00:23:55,567
McKenzie, that squared circle
is a battlefield.

479
00:23:55,634 --> 00:23:58,003
There are no rules.

480
00:23:58,069 --> 00:24:04,776
Love, war-- hey, challengers. You a fan?

481
00:24:04,843 --> 00:24:06,011
I know you're a fan of Grayson Waller,

482
00:24:06,077 --> 00:24:08,380
but say it like you mean it, Dragu baby.

483
00:24:08,447 --> 00:24:11,183
Hey, no one cares about
McKenzie's feelings.

484
00:24:11,249 --> 00:24:14,786
See, ilja wanted an edge for his match
at Halloween havoc,

485
00:24:14,853 --> 00:24:17,689
but Grayson Waller doesn't need
an edge when he takes on Apollo

486
00:24:17,756 --> 00:24:18,890
crews at Halloween havoc.
Why are you wearing your

487
00:24:18,957 --> 00:24:21,893
grandmother's sunglasses?

488
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,895
First of all, these aren't grandma's
Gingin sunglasses,

489
00:24:23,962 --> 00:24:25,497
okay?

490
00:24:25,564 --> 00:24:27,132
She has style, and second of all,

491
00:24:27,566 --> 00:24:29,968
Apollo crew tried to blind
me last week and my eyes

492
00:24:30,035 --> 00:24:33,505
are still really sensitive to light.
Why are you changing the subject anyway?

493
00:24:33,905 --> 00:24:37,442
You're leaving pretty quickly for
someone who did something by accident.

494
00:24:37,843 --> 00:24:39,811
[Laughs] You want me to stay?

495
00:24:40,645 --> 00:24:42,414
No, I didn't mean it like that.
I will stay.

496
00:24:42,481 --> 00:24:48,386
I didn't mean-- that's a great idea.
I didn't mean it like that.

497
00:24:50,455 --> 00:24:52,557
McKenzie this is all your fault.

498
00:24:53,124 --> 00:24:55,694
That's fine. Ilja ain't that tough.
I'm Grayson Waller.

499
00:24:55,760 --> 00:25:01,566
Sanga, you know yulisa is hurt.
Will you be in my corner tonight?

500
00:25:03,001 --> 00:25:05,337
Definitely yes, I will.
I'm always with you.

501
00:25:05,403 --> 00:25:06,671
Thank you.

502
00:25:12,811 --> 00:25:13,845
Sanga is going to be in your
corner tonight, huh?

503
00:25:13,912 --> 00:25:15,013
Yes.

504
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:20,118
Well, that may be your jungle,
but tonight that's my ring.

505
00:25:20,886 --> 00:25:21,920
See you out there.

506
00:25:24,055 --> 00:25:26,825
Yes, I got it. Relax.

507
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:29,261
[music]

508
00:25:29,327 --> 00:25:32,030
[announcer] Your view of the world
misshaped by how you allow yourself

509
00:25:32,097 --> 00:25:37,068
to experience it. You create a point
of view and see everyone

510
00:25:37,135 --> 00:25:39,738
and everything through this lens.

511
00:25:39,804 --> 00:25:43,675
Most people live their entire
lives with a forced perspective

512
00:25:43,742 --> 00:25:46,978
only being able to see things
in an uncomplicated way,

513
00:25:48,113 --> 00:25:52,117
but changing one detail greatly
alter how you visualize

514
00:25:52,183 --> 00:25:57,222
everything around you and now
you see things you never saw coming.

515
00:25:57,289 --> 00:26:02,327
Turning that lens on yourself can show you
something you're not going to like.

516
00:26:02,394 --> 00:26:06,231
I've waited two long months
for the day to come.

517
00:26:06,298 --> 00:26:08,199
At Halloween havoc,

518
00:26:08,266 --> 00:26:09,968
let's see what happens.

519
00:26:15,106 --> 00:26:21,212
[Laughter]

520
00:26:24,683 --> 00:26:26,318
Grayson, I'm going to force my perspective

521
00:26:26,384 --> 00:26:29,888
on you on the way to my ultimate goal.

522
00:26:31,222 --> 00:26:37,796
At Halloween havoc, I leave you
in the dark.

523
00:26:37,862 --> 00:26:41,433
[music]

524
00:26:41,499 --> 00:26:42,400
How about this big news?
Because Apollo crews

525
00:26:42,467 --> 00:26:45,036
will have his eyes on this match up.

526
00:26:45,103 --> 00:26:46,438
It is official after what we've

527
00:26:46,504 --> 00:26:50,041
just witnessed before the break.
Dragunov is staying around.

528
00:26:50,108 --> 00:26:55,981
Dragunov goes one-on-one with Grayson
Waller later tonight here on NXT.

[Valentina feroz's music plays]
[bell rings]

530
00:26:59,184 --> 00:27:01,453
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

531
00:27:01,519 --> 00:27:07,692
Introducing first, accompanied
by Sanga, Valentina Feroz.

532
00:27:08,126 --> 00:27:10,895
[Vic] As we saw before the break
Valentina Feroz talking with sanga.

533
00:27:11,262 --> 00:27:15,200
Very happy with sanga is joining
her. It's nice to have a support system.

534
00:27:15,266 --> 00:27:16,101
[Indi Hartwell's music plays]

535
00:27:16,167 --> 00:27:17,636
[Book] Oh, back up, Vic, I just saw.

536
00:27:19,204 --> 00:27:23,608
[Vic] You my backup now?
I'm your wingman. It's complicated.

537
00:27:24,776 --> 00:27:30,982
[announcer] Her opponent, Indi Hartwell.
Well, look, before we came on air tonight.

538
00:27:31,449 --> 00:27:34,185
Indi Hartwell actually trained
with you at reality of wrestling

539
00:27:34,252 --> 00:27:35,820
just a few years ago.

540
00:27:35,887 --> 00:27:38,990
What did you see in Hartwell
that stuck out the most?

541
00:27:39,057 --> 00:27:42,527
[Book] Well, I say Valentina better
be ready tonight

542
00:27:42,594 --> 00:27:47,165
because Indi Hartwell is somewhat
a veteran in this business.

543
00:27:47,232 --> 00:27:50,235
Nothing was handed to Indi Hartwell.

544
00:27:50,301 --> 00:27:52,704
She's had personal issues
but it's time to put those personal

545
00:27:52,771 --> 00:27:56,608
issues behind and move forward.

546
00:27:56,875 --> 00:27:57,976
[Vic] You saw her [bell rings]

547
00:27:58,043 --> 00:28:00,145
Very confident before
that commercial break.

548
00:28:00,211 --> 00:28:04,649
Look, both these superstars also
have success as tag team superstars.

549
00:28:04,716 --> 00:28:09,621
Indi Hartwell former NXT women's tag
team champion. Valentina Feroz

550
00:28:09,687 --> 00:28:12,057
also a former tag team superstar as well.

551
00:28:12,123 --> 00:28:15,760
How hard is it to transition into singles
competition, as you once did?

552
00:28:15,827 --> 00:28:18,496
[Book] The thing this is it's not easy,
I could tell you that.

553
00:28:18,563 --> 00:28:22,067
It's something that you got to
work a whole lot at.

554
00:28:22,133 --> 00:28:24,469
It's not something that you're going
to wake up one day

555
00:28:24,536 --> 00:28:25,904
and find yourself a champion.

556
00:28:25,970 --> 00:28:27,372
[Vic] Into the cover, hook of the leg.

557
00:28:27,439 --> 00:28:28,273
Kick out.

558
00:28:28,339 --> 00:28:30,809
[Book] I tell you, Indi Hartwell
is someone that I really think

559
00:28:30,875 --> 00:28:34,646
that's going to put time in and learn
what it takes to get to the top,

560
00:28:34,713 --> 00:28:38,716
but not just to get the
top, Vic, to stay at the top.

561
00:28:38,783 --> 00:28:44,556
-[Book] Look at that energy.
-[Vic ] Oh, Veer Mahaan.

562
00:28:51,830 --> 00:28:56,067
What's he saying?
A lot of whispering going on tonight.

563
00:28:58,303 --> 00:29:02,974
Sanga is perplexed, and wait a minute.
Sanga leaving.

564
00:29:03,041 --> 00:29:05,410
What's the support system now?

565
00:29:05,477 --> 00:29:07,946
[Book] You know more about this than i do.

566
00:29:08,146 --> 00:29:10,915
I'm not going to speculate
on what just happened right there,

567
00:29:10,982 --> 00:29:12,650
but we got a match going on in the ring.

568
00:29:12,717 --> 00:29:14,853
[Vic] Well, we certainly do,
and Hartwell trying to turn things

569
00:29:14,919 --> 00:29:18,289
around and you can feel almost
some of the NXT universe shocked

570
00:29:18,356 --> 00:29:19,557
by what they just witnessed,
but you mentioned it, we do have

571
00:29:19,624 --> 00:29:23,728
a match up going on, and Hartwell
looking for the submission.

572
00:29:23,795 --> 00:29:25,997
That's the power that Hartwell brings.

573
00:29:26,064 --> 00:29:28,366
You talked about being
a veteran of the game.

574
00:29:28,433 --> 00:29:31,536
If she's able to continue to apply
the pressure in this match up.

575
00:29:31,603 --> 00:29:35,039
She has had a new sense of confidence
as of late, but also has Feroz.

576
00:29:35,106 --> 00:29:37,075
Oh, Feroz looking for the submission now.

577
00:29:37,509 --> 00:29:41,646
Hartwell doing a nice job
at getting off, trying to roll through.

578
00:29:41,713 --> 00:29:43,882
This is a big match for someone
like Valentina Feroz, really can

579
00:29:43,948 --> 00:29:46,351
go from aspiring superstar
to a bonified one.

580
00:29:46,417 --> 00:29:48,620
[Book] You're talking about having
that confidence, that confidence

581
00:29:48,686 --> 00:29:51,089
can go away in a heartbeat
when you take a l,

582
00:29:51,156 --> 00:29:55,460
but right now Indi Hartwell
is trying to fight her way back into this,

583
00:29:55,527 --> 00:29:57,962
and I'm going to tell you right now,

584
00:29:58,029 --> 00:30:00,331
she's just going to have to do
the right things, make the right

585
00:30:00,398 --> 00:30:03,501
moves to get the victory here,
going to [Indistinct]

586
00:30:03,568 --> 00:30:06,538
[Vic] Right now again into another
submission goes Feroz.

587
00:30:07,405 --> 00:30:10,041
Feroz doing her best now to try to lock
in another submission,

588
00:30:10,108 --> 00:30:13,011
but Hartwell doing a great job
of rolling over, trying to find

589
00:30:13,077 --> 00:30:16,748
and navigate her way to the bottom rope.
Look, both these women have the

590
00:30:16,814 --> 00:30:21,386
tools to succeed, but, really, it comes
down to who could put it together.

591
00:30:21,452 --> 00:30:23,688
Both want to be champion
at the end of the day.

592
00:30:23,755 --> 00:30:25,023
[Book] Smart right there,
Indi Hartwell, [indistinct]

593
00:30:25,089 --> 00:30:26,491
-[Vic] Oh,
-[Book] you can't think about

594
00:30:26,558 --> 00:30:29,360
-[Book] trying to tough it out and--
-[Vic] into another cover hook of the leg.

595
00:30:29,661 --> 00:30:30,762
That was a near fall.

596
00:30:30,829 --> 00:30:34,165
[Book] You got to be smart. That's
what Indi Hartwell has always regressed.

597
00:30:34,232 --> 00:30:36,834
She's always had the talent.
You got to be able to be smart.

598
00:30:37,335 --> 00:30:40,371
You got to think your way through this,
navigate your way through these landmines.

599
00:30:40,438 --> 00:30:42,407
[Vic] You're saying the killer instinct?

600
00:30:42,473 --> 00:30:44,242
[Book] Killer instinct is definitely
something that you got to have.

601
00:30:44,876 --> 00:30:48,079
[Vic] Feroz I think just realized
that sanga was nowhere to be found,

602
00:30:48,613 --> 00:30:52,550
taking a look around ringside,
didn't realize until now.

603
00:30:52,617 --> 00:30:55,386
Now, Hartwell in her sights, double knees.

604
00:30:55,453 --> 00:30:59,190
Feroz maybe she didn't need
a support system.

605
00:30:59,257 --> 00:31:01,693
Into the cover, this would be
a huge win for Feroz.

606
00:31:01,759 --> 00:31:03,528
Another kick out.

607
00:31:03,962 --> 00:31:04,896
This match is big for both women

608
00:31:04,963 --> 00:31:08,800
when you take a look at the
landscape of NXT women's division.

609
00:31:08,867 --> 00:31:11,135
[Book] You talk about being
that singles competitor.

610
00:31:11,202 --> 00:31:12,904
It's all about going out there

611
00:31:12,971 --> 00:31:15,940
and trying to figure out how you
can get a win week and week out

612
00:31:16,274 --> 00:31:19,677
because you don't want to be keep going
out and taking an l here, an l there.

613
00:31:19,744 --> 00:31:22,113
You're not going to move
up the ladder that way.

614
00:31:22,180 --> 00:31:27,852
[JD] Hartwell showcasing some strength
at bringing Feroz in the hard way.

615
00:31:27,919 --> 00:31:29,287
Will it be enough for Hartwell?

616
00:31:29,354 --> 00:31:32,924
Into the cover.
The confidence continues to grow.

617
00:31:32,991 --> 00:31:33,825
[bell rings] [Indi Hartwell's music plays]

618

of Valentina right there.

619

[announcer] Here is your winner,
Indi Hartwell.

620
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:47,038
[Vic] For Indi Hartwell, you talked
about how Hartwell has continued

621
00:31:47,739 --> 00:31:49,007
to grow as a competitor,
she-- what the hell?

622
00:31:49,073 --> 00:31:55,847
Congratulations, Indi Hartwell,
or as the Americans say, "go sports."

623
00:31:56,414 --> 00:32:00,618
[Book] What is this?
You are very impressive.

624
00:32:00,785 --> 00:32:06,391
Am I right, boy?
Pretty deadly, we are-- fantastic.

625

[crowd boos]

626
00:32:11,963 --> 00:32:12,797
All right.

627
00:32:12,864 --> 00:32:15,633
Listen up, party people, listen
up, party people.

628
00:32:15,700 --> 00:32:17,802
We're just here to sit back and relax

629
00:32:18,036 --> 00:32:21,239
and watch three teams beat the crap
out of each other,

630
00:32:21,539 --> 00:32:23,975
all for the privilege to take
on pretty deadly

631
00:32:24,042 --> 00:32:27,211
for these NXT tag team Championships.

632
00:32:27,278 --> 00:32:28,880
Who are you picking? What team you got?

633
00:32:28,947 --> 00:32:32,083
Oh, I've not got Scooby Doo,
my surf and dandy.

634
00:32:32,517 --> 00:32:34,018
What about the dyad?

635
00:32:35,586 --> 00:32:36,454
Briggs and Jensen?

636
00:32:36,721 --> 00:32:37,922
Role turn.

637
00:32:38,823 --> 00:32:39,924
Edris and Malik?

638
00:32:40,825 --> 00:32:42,493
Wah, wah, wah.

639
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,631
While this melee unfolds, we're going
to crack open a cold one.

641
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,736
Well, the sausages are on the grill, boy,

warming up for the two tastiest
snacks in NXT.

643
00:32:56,741 --> 00:32:57,976
Tuck in, cowboy.

644
00:32:58,042 --> 00:33:00,378
It's time to watch the three
teams annihilate each other.

645

Hey, you ready, Elly?

646

Yes, boy.

Two, four, six, eight, who do
we all think is great?

648
00:33:07,385 --> 00:33:10,988
Pretty deadly.

649
00:33:12,190 --> 00:33:18,629
Go, pretty deadly.

Hey, come on. Red card.

652
00:33:22,633 --> 00:33:23,735
What is this all about?

653
00:33:24,402 --> 00:33:26,137
[Vic] You got one of those hats
in Houston?

654
00:33:27,338 --> 00:33:30,975
[Book] No, I do not. [Laughs]

655
00:33:31,042 --> 00:33:32,110
[bell rings]

656
00:33:32,176 --> 00:33:36,781
[announcer] The following is a number one
contenders tag team triple threat match.

657
00:33:37,281 --> 00:33:43,321
Introducing first, the team of
Malik blade and Edris Enofeé.

658
00:33:43,388 --> 00:33:47,759
[JD] The question this duo is does
destiny belong to the underdogs?

659
00:33:47,925 --> 00:33:50,962
Blade and Enofeé have
been putting in the work,

660
00:33:51,562 --> 00:33:54,665
but can they punch their ticket to become
the number one contenders

661
00:33:54,732 --> 00:33:57,402
as they face Briggs and Jensen
and the dyad?

662
00:33:57,568 --> 00:33:58,503
Who will win?

663
00:33:58,569 --> 00:34:01,806
Who will be next in line for
the tag team titles on NXT?

664
00:34:05,476 --> 00:34:06,978
Cora Jade, next week,

665
00:34:07,044 --> 00:34:09,447
you and Roxanne Perez
play a game of pick your poison.

666
00:34:09,514 --> 00:34:11,182
Have you decided on Roxanne's opponent?

667
00:34:11,816 --> 00:34:16,154
I have the whole WWE roster
to pick from. I've contacted some people.

668
00:34:16,354 --> 00:34:20,391
Honestly, the hard part is going to be
narrowing down exactly who i want to pick.

669
00:34:20,758 --> 00:34:22,927
Must be hard for Roxanne to get
in touch with anyone,

670
00:34:22,994 --> 00:34:26,030
considering nobody ever liked her.
I can't imagine

671
00:34:26,097 --> 00:34:29,367
what it would be like to get ghosted
by everybody from raw and Smack Down.

672
00:34:29,734 --> 00:34:30,735
Yikes.

673
00:34:30,935 --> 00:34:34,205
Actually, earlier today, I spoke
to Roxanne. Her dms are blowing up.

674
00:34:34,272 --> 00:34:35,673
Multiple superstars are interested.

675
00:34:35,740 --> 00:34:37,408
Wait, what? No, no, no.

676
00:34:37,475 --> 00:34:38,309
That's not possible.

677
00:34:38,576 --> 00:34:41,879
Roxanne doesn't have any friends.
Now, she's blatantly lying.

678
00:34:42,146 --> 00:34:45,116
I'm not so sure about that. Roxanne's
even going to Smack Down on Friday.

679
00:34:45,183 --> 00:34:46,918
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

680
00:34:46,984 --> 00:34:51,422
Who is she talking to?
Nobody's got-- you know what?

681
00:34:51,489 --> 00:34:53,724
Would you excuse me?
I have some phone calls to make.

682
00:34:57,195 --> 00:34:58,463
Do you happen to have Ronda's number?

683
00:34:58,663 --> 00:34:59,931
Sorry, Cora, I don't.

684
00:35:02,733 --> 00:35:03,968
I actually do.

685
00:35:04,302 --> 00:35:06,404
Vic and Booker, back to you.

686
00:35:07,505 --> 00:35:09,607
[Vic] I'm sure if Roxanne Perez
needs any help,

687
00:35:09,807 --> 00:35:12,009
her biggest fan is sitting right here
to my right.

688
00:35:13,111 --> 00:35:14,278
[Book] You know it.

689
00:35:16,714 --> 00:35:21,519
[announcer] Accompanied by Fallon Henley,
Josh Briggs and Brooks Jensen.

690
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,456
[Vic] Well, we got to focus back in.
I'm sure we'll talk about

691
00:35:25,523 --> 00:35:28,159
Roxanne Perez and Cora Jade
a little later bit later on tonight.

692
00:35:28,326 --> 00:35:31,829
This is a huge match for these
three teams because the winner

693
00:35:32,363 --> 00:35:36,100
of this is the number one
contender for pretty deadly

694
00:35:36,701 --> 00:35:42,073
and the NXT tag team titles as you
see the dyads set along

695
00:35:42,140 --> 00:35:45,209
with Briggs and Jensen, blade and Enofeé.

696
00:35:45,276 --> 00:35:47,745
There are the NXT tag team champions.

697
00:35:48,246 --> 00:35:51,682
I'll ask you this before the bell rings,
who's got the advantage?

698
00:35:51,749 --> 00:35:52,650
[Book] [Laughs] [bell rings]

699
00:35:52,717 --> 00:35:56,154
That's a tough question right there.
I'm looking at Jensen and Briggs.

700
00:35:56,220 --> 00:35:58,823
These guys are two bonafide heavyweights.

701
00:35:58,890 --> 00:36:03,461
In this era today, I say we are
in the year of the big men.

702
00:36:03,928 --> 00:36:07,665
[Vic] Right now, it is blade who
just dropped Jensen for a moment

703
00:36:07,732 --> 00:36:09,467
and then just got ran over.

704
00:36:09,534 --> 00:36:12,470
When it comes to blade
and Enofeé, a lot of those

705
00:36:12,537 --> 00:36:15,506
in the back, we saw it last week,
questioning are they serious

706
00:36:15,573 --> 00:36:19,043
enough to become a contending
tag team here in NXT.

707
00:36:19,110 --> 00:36:22,346
[Book] Let me tell you something,
Vic. When I watched those two make

708
00:36:22,413 --> 00:36:25,816
the walk to the ring,
they're smiling, they're happy,

709
00:36:25,883 --> 00:36:28,119
and when you got a chance to move up,

710
00:36:28,185 --> 00:36:31,789
you cannot be thinking
about anything but business.

711
00:36:31,856 --> 00:36:34,759
No plan, no jiving, just business.

712
00:36:34,825 --> 00:36:37,028
Let's see if they got a mean
streak here tonight.

713
00:36:37,094 --> 00:36:39,864
[Vic] Right now, Briggs and Jensen
in control, pointing out pretty deadly.

714
00:36:40,298 --> 00:36:41,832
I want to point out something
about the champs.

715
00:36:41,899 --> 00:36:44,435
I got on good authority that
they said their royal attire

716
00:36:45,069 --> 00:36:46,070
last week was based off of whom

717
00:36:46,137 --> 00:36:49,307
they believe is the greatest
king of the ring of all time,

718
00:36:49,373 --> 00:36:50,675
Wade Barrett.

719
00:36:50,741 --> 00:36:51,642
[Book] [chuckles]

720
00:36:51,709 --> 00:36:52,577
Yes, I'm not surprised.

721
00:36:52,643 --> 00:36:53,744
[Vic] That's what they said.

722
00:36:53,811 --> 00:36:55,179
[Book] They're foreigners.
You know what I mean?

723
00:36:55,246 --> 00:36:56,180
They're fans of--

724
00:36:56,247 --> 00:36:57,949
[Vic] it's good to have you here, Book,

725
00:36:58,015 --> 00:37:00,318
to have someone that speaks the truth
unlike that Barrett.

726
00:37:00,718 --> 00:37:03,321
-[Book] [Laughs]
-[Vic] Oh, what a dropkick.

727
00:37:03,387 --> 00:37:07,158
Did you see the height from blade?
You talk about seriousness.

728
00:37:07,425 --> 00:37:09,827
It looks like blade and Enofeé
have turned the corner at least

729
00:37:10,294 --> 00:37:11,896
in the early goings of this match up.

730
00:37:11,963 --> 00:37:12,797
-[Book] You see that right there.
-[Vic] Oh.

731
00:37:13,030 --> 00:37:14,098
[Book] Another mistake right there.

732
00:37:14,165 --> 00:37:15,967
You got to get that man a little
bit closer to your corner.

733
00:37:16,033 --> 00:37:21,105
You want to keep that man isolated.
Blade made a huge mistake right there.

734
00:37:21,172 --> 00:37:26,444
[Vic] Oh, now, the dyad tag team
continuity between Fowler and Reid.

735
00:37:27,645 --> 00:37:29,180
Let's go, guys. Get inside the ring.

736
00:37:30,514 --> 00:37:32,183
[Vic] I just get nervous
whenever these guys--

737
00:37:32,250 --> 00:37:33,851
[Book] what the hell is going on here?

738
00:37:34,018 --> 00:37:37,455
[Vic] The schism, they're always handing
out pamphlets and rabbits' feet,

739
00:37:37,655 --> 00:37:38,689
[Indistinct]

740
00:37:39,457 --> 00:37:43,861
This is one I will agree with
pretty deadly about. Come on, Briggs.

741
00:37:43,928 --> 00:37:45,496
There are no count outs,
no disqualifications,

742
00:37:45,563 --> 00:37:49,700
pinfall, submission inside the ring.
Blade has had it taken to him

743
00:37:49,767 --> 00:37:54,705
in this match up, desperately needs
to make a tag out to Enofeé.

744
00:37:56,274 --> 00:37:59,610
[Book] Look at this Joe Gacy guy,
he's a little different.

745
00:37:59,844 --> 00:38:00,678
[Vic] Cover. Kick out.

746
00:38:00,745 --> 00:38:03,247
[Book] He seems to have crept
into the minds of these two.

747
00:38:03,314 --> 00:38:04,315
Once you do something like that,

748
00:38:04,382 --> 00:38:08,552
you can get a person to do
pretty much anything.

749
00:38:08,753 --> 00:38:09,854
I'm wondering about these guys.

750
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:14,725
[Vic] That goes back to last week when
the dyad took out Cameron grimes.

751
00:38:14,792 --> 00:38:17,328
Oh, a sadistic attack.

752
00:38:17,995 --> 00:38:20,464
Whoever's wearing this red sweatshirt,

753
00:38:20,531 --> 00:38:22,700
passing out those buttons
I was talking about,

754
00:38:22,767 --> 00:38:26,804
Joe Gacy has a plan.
His message is being absorbed by some.

755
00:38:26,871 --> 00:38:30,675
Could you imagine the dyad as the tag team
champions here in NXT?

756
00:38:31,375 --> 00:38:32,543
Could you imagine that?

757
00:38:32,610 --> 00:38:34,779
[Book] Yes, under the guidance
of Joe Gacy.

758
00:38:34,845 --> 00:38:38,082
This is the guy that's looking
to steal your soul,

759
00:38:38,149 --> 00:38:41,852
to try to get you to pretty
much do all of his bidding

760
00:38:41,919 --> 00:38:43,688
because I've been watching Gacy.

761
00:38:44,288 --> 00:38:49,126
He's been a guy that's been very,
very manipulating here in NXT.

762
00:38:49,193 --> 00:38:50,194
[Vic] He's screaming right now.

763
00:38:50,261 --> 00:38:53,631
A tag was made, and finally
Enofeé getting back in.

764
00:38:53,698 --> 00:38:56,100
Can Enofeé and blade string together wins?

765
00:38:56,167 --> 00:38:59,036
It's something they haven't been
able to do in NXT.

766
00:38:59,103 --> 00:39:01,272
Right now, they are putting it together.

767
00:39:01,339 --> 00:39:04,308
[Book] Great tag team
action minus the push ups.

768
00:39:04,375 --> 00:39:06,744
You got to keep your
eyes on the prize, kid.

769
00:39:06,811 --> 00:39:08,879
[Vic] Them looking up at pretty
deadly, was that a mistake?

770
00:39:08,946 --> 00:39:13,284
[Book] That was a huge mistake.
Playing games like this, you know what?

771
00:39:13,784 --> 00:39:15,386
I don't know if I like these guys.

772
00:39:15,453 --> 00:39:16,354
I don't know if i-- come on,

773
00:39:16,420 --> 00:39:18,155
-[Vic] Book. It's just your first night.
-[Book] I don't know if I like these guys.

774
00:39:18,222 --> 00:39:20,191
They may have to grow on me. Right now,

775
00:39:20,257 --> 00:39:23,928
they're definitely missing the boat
as far as going out there knowing

776
00:39:23,994 --> 00:39:25,396
what winning is all about.

777
00:39:25,463 --> 00:39:27,531
[Vic] Well, I believe a tag was made.

778
00:39:27,598 --> 00:39:30,434
Reid is legal, but I don't think
anyone realized it from the dyad

779
00:39:30,501 --> 00:39:33,637
as Briggs just wiping out the field.
Now, he does realize it.

780
00:39:33,704 --> 00:39:35,373
Is it Briggs and Jensen

781
00:39:35,873 --> 00:39:37,742
going to be the new number one contenders?

782
00:39:37,908 --> 00:39:39,210
Whoa.

783
00:39:39,377 --> 00:39:40,478
[Book] Wow.

784
00:39:40,544 --> 00:39:42,713
[Crowd applauds]

785
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,482
[Vic] Jensen wanted in.

786
00:39:47,685 --> 00:39:50,087
This could be the turning point
in the match up.

787
00:39:50,321 --> 00:39:51,689
[JD] What the--

788
00:39:52,323 --> 00:39:55,493
[Book] going up to the high-rent
district. Here we go, skinning the cat.

789
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,330
[Vic] Walking the tightrope,
wiping out the field.

790
00:39:59,663 --> 00:40:00,931
[Laughs]

791
00:40:00,998 --> 00:40:03,134
[Vic] Briggs and Jensen rolling.

792
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:04,702
Are they going to be the number
one contenders?

793
00:40:04,769 --> 00:40:09,240
Are they next in line for the NXT tag
team titles?

794
00:40:11,509 --> 00:40:12,676
[Vic] Back live on NXT,

795
00:40:12,743 --> 00:40:15,746
we see the vantage point of pretty deadly
as they're looking on.

796
00:40:15,813 --> 00:40:18,549
One of these three teams
will become the number one contenders

797
00:40:18,616 --> 00:40:22,286
for the NXT tag team titles
and right now it is the dyad

798
00:40:22,453 --> 00:40:26,757
who has been in control of this match up,
really, throughout the commercial break,

799
00:40:26,824 --> 00:40:31,595
and right now tagging his way back
in is Fowler and just a nasty attitude

800
00:40:31,862 --> 00:40:34,698
between Fowler and Reid,
as you mentioned, Book,

801
00:40:34,765 --> 00:40:37,835
because they are following
the path of Joe Gacy.

802
00:40:38,269 --> 00:40:39,603
[Book] Watching the dyad,

803
00:40:40,204 --> 00:40:45,109
they may be under some kind of mind
control, but let me tell you something,

804
00:40:45,176 --> 00:40:49,146
Vic, these guys are very,
very capable inside that square circle.

805
00:40:50,047 --> 00:40:52,550
[Vic] Right now, they're taking
it to blade, or excuse me,

806
00:40:52,616 --> 00:40:55,386
Enofeé as I looked up and saw Blade
looking on yelling at Enofeé,

807
00:40:55,453 --> 00:41:00,558
trying to get back into this match up as,
again, no disqualifications.

808
00:41:00,724 --> 00:41:05,329
Reid, Fowler trying to-- look at Jensen
coming in at the last moment,

809
00:41:05,396 --> 00:41:10,301
and Jensen trying to turn the complexion
of this match up around.

810
00:41:10,367 --> 00:41:13,170
Oh, certainly has done that.

811
00:41:13,237 --> 00:41:15,773
[Book] Didn't I tell you, Vic, the year
of the big man,

812
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,176
watching this big man come
in there and display power.

813
00:41:19,510 --> 00:41:21,645
That's what this game's all about.

814
00:41:21,712 --> 00:41:22,580
[Crowd chants "this is awesome"]

815
00:41:22,646 --> 00:41:23,848
[Vic] This indeed is awesome.

816
00:41:24,014 --> 00:41:25,382
When you talk about tag teams,

817
00:41:25,449 --> 00:41:27,918
how about the power shift on raw
with the return of the oc?

818
00:41:27,985 --> 00:41:29,653
[Book] Yes, talking about backup,

819
00:41:29,720 --> 00:41:32,690
AJ Styles getting backup at the right
time and he got it.

820
00:41:32,857 --> 00:41:35,493
[Vic] The backup for Jensen
is his partner Briggs who tags

821
00:41:35,793 --> 00:41:39,296
in and is now wiping out
the field and-- oh.

822
00:41:39,363 --> 00:41:40,898
Oh, god.

823
00:41:40,965 --> 00:41:43,200
Have you ever seen something
like that, Book?

824
00:41:43,267 --> 00:41:45,703
[Book] No, I have not, not in my 32 years
of this business.

825
00:41:45,769 --> 00:41:47,338
This big guy is on the move.

826
00:41:47,404 --> 00:41:49,907
[Vic] You said it was the year
of the big man and

827
00:41:49,974 --> 00:41:52,877
Briggs is the biggest in this match
overpowering everyone.

828
00:41:52,943 --> 00:41:53,844
Big splash.

829
00:41:54,612 --> 00:41:55,513
[Book] Wow.

830
00:41:57,515 --> 00:42:00,417
[Vic] Briggs Jensen, former NXT UK
tag team champions,

831
00:42:00,818 --> 00:42:03,087
can they become the NXT tag
team champions?

832
00:42:03,587 --> 00:42:07,658
They got to win this match
to earn the opportunity-- oh,

833
00:42:12,730 --> 00:42:16,166
feeding off the energy
of the NXT universe.

834
00:42:16,233 --> 00:42:19,970
[Book] Not only that, to find their way
back to that Championship picture,

835
00:42:20,037 --> 00:42:21,538
that's what it's all about.

836
00:42:23,240 --> 00:42:24,275
[Vic] Oh, tag team tandem offense.

837
00:42:24,341 --> 00:42:25,309
[Book] Oh no.

838
00:42:25,376 --> 00:42:27,244
[Vic] Bam.

839
00:42:27,311 --> 00:42:29,747
[Book] Wow, that's it,
that has got to be it.

840
00:42:29,813 --> 00:42:31,682
[Vic] Do we have new number one contender?

841
00:42:31,749 --> 00:42:33,484
Enofeé and blade breaking things
up at the last moment

842
00:42:33,551 --> 00:42:37,621
and wisely making the tag getting
the fresh partner in, which is blade.

843
00:42:37,688 --> 00:42:40,124
[Book] You said it, that was a smart
move right there,

844
00:42:40,190 --> 00:42:41,091
getting blade in the ring.

845
00:42:41,258 --> 00:42:43,160
Blade is the fresh guy right now,
he's on the move,

846
00:42:43,327 --> 00:42:46,530
he's looking good right now,
but can he keep it going?

847
00:42:46,597 --> 00:42:49,333
[Vic] The high-flyer keeping his feet
grounded for the moment and

848
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,870
right now two for one special for blade.

849
00:42:53,837 --> 00:42:57,608
Blade and Enofeé are so electric
once they get rolling.

850
00:42:57,875 --> 00:43:00,778
There's been questions about them
as a team if they can put

851
00:43:00,844 --> 00:43:03,213
it together-- oh, nice blockbuster,

852
00:43:03,414 --> 00:43:06,317
if they can put together a string
of victories.

853
00:43:06,784 --> 00:43:07,718
This would be the biggest one.

854
00:43:07,785 --> 00:43:08,619
Oh, that [Indistinct]

855
00:43:08,686 --> 00:43:09,520
[Book] Wow.

856
00:43:09,587 --> 00:43:10,421
Beautiful.

857
00:43:10,487 --> 00:43:11,322
From the top right to the heart.

858
00:43:11,388 --> 00:43:12,323
[Vic] Into to the cover,

859
00:43:12,389 --> 00:43:16,994
hook of the leg and overpowering
Blade was Briggs.

860
00:43:18,395 --> 00:43:21,398
[Book] Briggs is about 6'7'' tall,
this is a guy, like you said,

861
00:43:21,465 --> 00:43:23,600
the biggest guy in the room right now

862
00:43:23,667 --> 00:43:27,004
and he's moving cat-quick
at the same time.

863
00:43:27,071 --> 00:43:29,873
[Vic] The tag was made
and in comes Fowler.

864
00:43:29,940 --> 00:43:31,475
This is the danger of a triple
threat match,

865
00:43:31,542 --> 00:43:33,744
you've been in plenty of them, Book.

866
00:43:33,811 --> 00:43:34,912
[Book] Yes, one thing about the triple
threat match,

867
00:43:34,979 --> 00:43:36,947
you got to keep your head on a swivel
because you don't know

868
00:43:37,014 --> 00:43:39,416
what's what until it happens.

869
00:43:39,483 --> 00:43:40,417
Oh.

870
00:43:41,952 --> 00:43:44,788
Get up.

871
00:43:44,855 --> 00:43:47,958
[Vic] Oh, swing and a miss.
Oh, but Enofeé didn't miss with the knee.

872
00:43:48,025 --> 00:43:49,426
Oh, a spinning heel kick.

873
00:43:49,827 --> 00:43:52,062
[Book] Beautiful spin kick there.

874
00:43:52,129 --> 00:43:55,366
[Vic] Look at recharging in,
Briggs back to his feet.

875
00:43:55,432 --> 00:43:58,869
[Book] Briggs with the big boot,
hard to take the big guy down,

876
00:43:58,936 --> 00:44:01,605
but blade did it, but somehow.

877
00:44:02,106 --> 00:44:03,907
[Vic] The tag was made.

878
00:44:03,974 --> 00:44:05,976
Fowler tagging in Reid.

879
00:44:06,043 --> 00:44:08,178
Reed is legal.

880
00:44:08,245 --> 00:44:09,947
Oh, and now they're taking it to Briggs.

881
00:44:10,014 --> 00:44:11,548
Is it going to be the dyad's night?

882
00:44:11,615 --> 00:44:13,117
Jensen.

883
00:44:13,183 --> 00:44:14,084
Come on.

884
00:44:14,151 --> 00:44:16,654
[BOOK] What a save right there,
what a save.

885
00:44:16,720 --> 00:44:18,756
[Vic] This is human demolition derby.

886
00:44:18,822 --> 00:44:19,757
[Book] [Laughs]

887
00:44:19,823 --> 00:44:20,858
[Book] Yes, it is.

888
00:44:20,924 --> 00:44:24,528
This is like rock them, sock
them robots right now, baby.

889
00:44:31,135 --> 00:44:31,969
[Book] Here we go.

890
00:44:32,036 --> 00:44:33,370
Wow.

891
00:44:34,071 --> 00:44:37,875
[Vic] Enofeé, blade.

892
00:44:39,176 --> 00:44:40,911
Gacy is beside himself.

893
00:44:41,311 --> 00:44:43,580
[Book] You're talking about high impact.

894
00:44:43,647 --> 00:44:44,882
[crows chants "NXT"]

895
00:44:44,948 --> 00:44:46,316
[Vic] Oh, come on.

896
00:44:46,717 --> 00:44:48,218
Oh.

897
00:44:48,285 --> 00:44:50,387
[Book] The x factor right there, Gacy.

898
00:44:51,355 --> 00:44:54,224
[Vic] Oh, not like this, Gacy and--

899
00:44:54,291 --> 00:44:55,793
oh, cave in.

900
00:44:55,859 --> 00:44:57,061
It's Cameron grimes.

901
00:44:58,729 --> 00:45:00,030
Grimes.

902
00:45:00,330 --> 00:45:01,165
Wait a minute.

903
00:45:01,231 --> 00:45:02,266
Cover.

904
00:45:02,332 --> 00:45:03,233
Shoulders down.

905
00:45:03,300 --> 00:45:05,269
Oh, no. [Book] You got to be kidding me.

906
00:45:05,335 --> 00:45:06,537
Come on.

907
00:45:06,603 --> 00:45:07,838
[bell rings]

908
00:45:07,905 --> 00:45:08,806
They've done it.

909
00:45:08,872 --> 00:45:09,907
[Laughs]

910
00:45:10,240 --> 00:45:13,243
[announcer] Here are your winners,
Malik Blade and Edris Enofeé.

911
00:45:13,310 --> 00:45:17,614
[Vic] Blade and Enofeé
are the number one contenders.

912
00:45:17,681 --> 00:45:19,983
[Edris Enofeé and Malik blade's
music plays]

913
00:45:20,050 --> 00:45:22,352
[Book] You got to be kidding me.

914
00:45:22,419 --> 00:45:23,287
[Vic] What do you think of them now, Book?

915
00:45:23,353 --> 00:45:26,523
[Book] You talk about being in the right
place at the right time,

916
00:45:26,590 --> 00:45:29,193
cash their ticket, you got to love it.

917
00:45:35,432 --> 00:45:36,266
[Vic] Let's go back to this match

918
00:45:36,333 --> 00:45:38,802
because there was a lot of unique offense,

919
00:45:38,869 --> 00:45:42,773
specifically from Briggs in this match up,

920
00:45:43,006 --> 00:45:45,576
who was just ping-ponging everybody
around the ring.

921
00:45:45,976 --> 00:45:47,745
This match pure chaos, Book.

922
00:45:47,811 --> 00:45:49,413
You mentioned it a few times, high-flying,

923
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,281
but here's the turning point.

924
00:45:51,348 --> 00:45:53,884
We talked about schism going
after Cameron grimes,

925
00:45:53,951 --> 00:45:57,054
it was Cameron grimes who got
him some tonight,

926
00:45:57,121 --> 00:45:59,523
that opened the door for blade and Enofeé.

927
00:45:59,590 --> 00:46:01,592
Check it out one more time right here,

928
00:46:01,658 --> 00:46:04,261
grimes pulling out Fowler,

929
00:46:04,328 --> 00:46:06,930
Enofeé just able to roll through
and get that three.

930
00:46:06,997 --> 00:46:10,601
How good must it feel for Enofeé
and blade right now,

931
00:46:10,667 --> 00:46:12,870
who've been questioned for weeks,

932
00:46:13,036 --> 00:46:18,842
but now they find themselves the number
one contenders for pretty deadly

933
00:46:18,909 --> 00:46:23,680
and the NXT tag team gold.

934
00:46:28,886 --> 00:46:31,588
Edris and Malik are your new
number one contenders

935
00:46:31,655 --> 00:46:32,923
for the NXT tag team titles and--

936
00:46:32,990 --> 00:46:34,024
[Jace] who

937
00:46:34,091 --> 00:46:35,425
missed you last week, McKenzie?

938
00:46:35,492 --> 00:46:36,326
No one.

939
00:46:37,294 --> 00:46:39,897
Gigi and I should be the number
one contenders

940
00:46:40,063 --> 00:46:43,867
for the NXT women's tag team
Championships,

941
00:46:44,234 --> 00:46:48,405
but bat girl had to jump us
in the parking lot last week.

942
00:46:48,472 --> 00:46:52,442
Tonight, she gets it back, only worse.

943
00:46:52,509 --> 00:46:55,679
See, toxic attraction doesn't
fear the flames

944
00:46:55,746 --> 00:46:58,982
like everyone else she intimidates
around here.

945
00:46:59,049 --> 00:47:03,520
[Gigi] Jacy is about to take care of Alba
Fyre because when you mess with our gold,

946
00:47:03,587 --> 00:47:06,623
we will walk through fire
to get our revenge.

947
00:47:06,690 --> 00:47:08,425
[Jace] I'm going to send Alba Fyre

948
00:47:08,592 --> 00:47:13,397
right back to her relatives of
"middle-earth" a hot mess, and

949
00:47:13,897 --> 00:47:15,866
if she wants to surprise us again,

950
00:47:16,333 --> 00:47:20,871
maybe we have a surprise
waiting for her in return.

951
00:47:20,938 --> 00:47:23,173
[Laughs]

952
00:47:27,611 --> 00:47:30,280
[Vic] Jacy Jayne is going to have to keep,

953
00:47:30,347 --> 00:47:33,884
that confidence heading
in to this showdown.

954
00:47:34,184 --> 00:47:41,058
[Alba Fyre music plays]

955
00:47:41,658 --> 00:47:42,960
[bell rings]

956
00:47:43,026 --> 00:47:45,829
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

957
00:47:45,896 --> 00:47:50,400
Making her way to the ring, Alba Fyre.

958
00:47:52,970 --> 00:47:58,208
[Vic] Alba Fyre has been focused
on one thing, that has been her mission,

959
00:47:58,275 --> 00:48:02,112
to burn down toxic attraction.

960
00:48:04,581 --> 00:48:10,220
Can her flame continue to burn
bright here tonight

961
00:48:10,420 --> 00:48:15,525
as she takes on Jacy Jane one-on-one
next on NXT?

962
00:48:19,229 --> 00:48:26,203
[Music]

963
00:49:04,841 --> 00:49:07,277
No, that is not what I told him.

964
00:49:07,344 --> 00:49:08,512
What do you mean?

965
00:49:08,578 --> 00:49:10,547
Did you tell him that I was asking?

966
00:49:10,614 --> 00:49:13,784
Tell him the request is from Kiana James.

967
00:49:13,850 --> 00:49:16,119
Yes, I'm looking at the plans now.

968
00:49:16,386 --> 00:49:20,390
The land that it's on is far more
valuable than the college itself.

969
00:49:20,457 --> 00:49:21,892
Thanks, Jean.

970
00:49:21,959 --> 00:49:23,460
Do we have hard copies of these prints?

971
00:49:24,194 --> 00:49:25,195
Yes.

972
00:49:25,262 --> 00:49:26,463
Yes, I'm still here, I told
you I'd look into it.

973
00:49:26,530 --> 00:49:30,100
Send that to my analytics team and
we'll figure out what's best for us.

974
00:49:30,867 --> 00:49:32,202
Actually, I get to be in the ring

975
00:49:32,269 --> 00:49:34,871
with one of the chase university
students tonight.

976
00:49:34,938 --> 00:49:35,839
I know.

977
00:49:35,906 --> 00:49:38,975
It'll make the deal that much
more enjoyable, but remember,

978
00:49:39,042 --> 00:49:42,512
this is just one of many acquisitions
that I'm looking into,

979
00:49:42,679 --> 00:49:45,782
so if we get this right, we can do more
business together in the future.

980
00:49:46,383 --> 00:49:48,518
Ciao.

981
00:49:48,585 --> 00:49:54,658
Jean, this is just the beginning.

982
00:49:54,725 --> 00:49:55,993
Look at this enterprise.

983
00:49:56,059 --> 00:49:57,761
It's going to be huge.
Look at the numbers.

984
00:50:01,765 --> 00:50:07,504

trying to make?

[Vic] As James mentioned,
she is inaction later tonight,

987
00:50:16,713 --> 00:50:18,915
but toxic attraction is here right now.

988
00:50:18,982 --> 00:50:22,586
I got to say, it is nice to work
with a professional like you,

989
00:50:22,652 --> 00:50:24,154
Booker, because my old partner,

990
00:50:24,221 --> 00:50:27,090
Wade Barrett, would have tipped
the table over if you stood up.

991
00:50:27,591 --> 00:50:29,626
[Book] Yes, yes.

992
00:50:29,693 --> 00:50:30,794
What did you say about Wade?

993
00:50:32,029 --> 00:50:34,131
[Vic] No, not you.

994
00:50:34,197 --> 00:50:35,198
[Book] What are you talking about?

995
00:50:35,265 --> 00:50:36,333
[Laughs]

996
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,102
[Vic] Wade would turn into slick
Joe mcwolf.

997
00:50:39,169 --> 00:50:40,470
His eyes will be bugging out
of his head right now.

998
00:50:40,537 --> 00:50:41,438
[Book] You know what they say, man.

999
00:50:41,505 --> 00:50:42,672
[bell rings]

1000
00:50:43,340 --> 00:50:44,541
[Vic] Oh, come on, Book.

1001
00:50:44,608 --> 00:50:46,843
[Book] There's nothing wrong
with the man's eyes.

1002
00:50:46,910 --> 00:50:50,147
[Vic] Well, right now, swing and a miss
as we try to refocus in on this match up.

1003
00:50:50,580 --> 00:50:53,016
Fyre looking for that gory bomb early on,
Jayne able to roll through.

1004
00:50:53,083 --> 00:50:55,552
There is a lot of tension
between these two women.

1005
00:50:55,619 --> 00:50:58,188
Of course, it was Fyre who abducted
Mandy Rose

1006
00:50:58,255 --> 00:50:59,956
just last week and another near fall.

1007
00:51:00,490 --> 00:51:01,658
[Book] Alba fyre is definitely

1008
00:51:01,725 --> 00:51:04,995
somebody who's doing it on her own terms,
on her own merits,

1009
00:51:05,062 --> 00:51:07,564
and since coming to NXT,
she's a game-changer.

1010
00:51:07,731 --> 00:51:08,865
[Vic] Certainly has.

1011
00:51:08,932 --> 00:51:12,235
Been focused on becoming
the NXT women's champion.

1012
00:51:12,302 --> 00:51:13,136
I got to say, big congratulations go out
to Ronda Rousey, once again,

1013
00:51:13,203 --> 00:51:17,174
the Smack Down women's champion.

1014
00:51:17,340 --> 00:51:20,477
[Book] I called it.
I said one Ronda was going to win.

1015
00:51:20,544 --> 00:51:22,446
No, I didn't. I didn't say that.

1016
00:51:22,512 --> 00:51:23,613
[Book] You didn't say that?

1017
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:24,781
[Vic] No, I didn't say that.

1018
00:51:24,848 --> 00:51:25,682
[Vic] Well, I'll say that you did.

1019
00:51:25,749 --> 00:51:28,718
I'll give you credit where credit is due
at the extreme rules premium live event.

1020
00:51:28,785 --> 00:51:33,190
As right now--
congratulations to Ronda Rousey.

1021
00:51:33,256 --> 00:51:35,592
[Vic] Oh, gigi Dolin trying
to stick her nose in.

1022
00:51:35,659 --> 00:51:39,196
That opened the door for Jacy Jayne.

1023
00:51:39,262 --> 00:51:41,298
Look, Jayne has been in a foul
mood along with Dolin after

1024
00:51:41,364 --> 00:51:42,866
they came up short against Lyons
and stark in the number one

1025
00:51:43,100 --> 00:51:46,336
contender's women's tag team
title match last week.

1026
00:51:46,403 --> 00:51:49,206
[Book] You got to think about how
talented Jacy Jayne is being

1027
00:51:49,272 --> 00:51:52,776
under the expert tutelage of Mandy Rose.

1028
00:51:52,843 --> 00:51:56,346
I was there when Mandy when
she started tough enough, 2016.

1029
00:51:56,413 --> 00:52:02,519
The growth of Mandy Rose as well as toxic
attraction has been unbelievable.

1030
00:52:02,586 --> 00:52:04,888
[Vic] While we are watching
this match up-- wait a minute,

1031
00:52:04,955 --> 00:52:06,857
going into the cover. Hook of the leg.

1032
00:52:06,923 --> 00:52:08,125
Is it enough?

1033
00:52:08,191 --> 00:52:09,192
Fyre able to kick out.

1034
00:52:09,259 --> 00:52:11,761
We've got to say congratulations
to Lyons and stark for becoming

1035
00:52:11,828 --> 00:52:13,296
number one contenders
for Carter and chance

1036
00:52:13,363 --> 00:52:16,099
and those NXT women's tag team titles.

1037
00:52:16,166 --> 00:52:19,536
It's the gold that was around
the waist of Dolin and Jayne.

1038
00:52:19,603 --> 00:52:21,271
Since they've lost the titles,

1039
00:52:21,338 --> 00:52:25,075
Book, they've admitted to it,
they haven't been the same.

1040
00:52:25,142 --> 00:52:27,744
[Book] One thing about losing those
Championships, one thing about

1041
00:52:27,811 --> 00:52:31,815
having those Championships gives
you that cloak of invincibility.

1042
00:52:31,882 --> 00:52:34,684
Once you lose, everything just
seems to crumble.

1043
00:52:34,851 --> 00:52:37,621
It's all about fighting your way
back here in NXT.

1044
00:52:37,687 --> 00:52:39,489
[Vic] Fyre right now looking
to go medieval on Jacy Jayne

1045
00:52:39,556 --> 00:52:43,360
and plants Jayne face first.

1046
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:46,763
Fyre right back in, huge strike.

1047
00:52:46,830 --> 00:52:52,369
This is what Fyre is as we've come
to know from her is the strong strikes,

1048
00:52:52,435 --> 00:52:55,105
the unique offense, and the uncanny
ability to rise to the occasion,

1049
00:52:55,172 --> 00:52:58,708
but a nice neck breaker.
Into the cover now goes Jayne.

1050
00:52:58,775 --> 00:53:01,411
Will it be enough?

1051
00:53:01,478 --> 00:53:03,547
Kick out again by fyre.

1052
00:53:03,613 --> 00:53:05,649
[Book] Alba Fyre has been a one-woman
wrecking crew,

1053
00:53:05,715 --> 00:53:08,985
but, in this match, right here
with toxic attraction,

1054
00:53:09,052 --> 00:53:13,223
having that x factor on the outside
of the ring

1055
00:53:13,290 --> 00:53:15,792
may be the difference maker.

1056
00:53:15,859 --> 00:53:18,295
[Vic] Trying to talk a little trash,
not working out in Jayne's favor.

1057
00:53:18,361 --> 00:53:19,496
Gets planted.

1058
00:53:20,196 --> 00:53:21,731
Is this going to be enough?

1059
00:53:21,798 --> 00:53:23,767
Another near fall.

1060
00:53:23,833 --> 00:53:27,203
Look, alba fyre has been
in the shadow everywhere

1061
00:53:27,270 --> 00:53:30,540
toxic attraction has gone
for several weeks.

1062
00:53:30,607 --> 00:53:33,743
She's focused on the here and the now.

1063
00:53:33,810 --> 00:53:36,479
Dolin, again, sticking her nose
in this match.

1064
00:53:36,546 --> 00:53:37,714
[Book] That's that distraction,

1065
00:53:37,781 --> 00:53:40,684
that's that x factor that Fyre's going
to have to deal with tonight.

1066
00:53:40,750 --> 00:53:42,219
Oh.

1067
00:53:42,285 --> 00:53:46,823
[Vic] That's one way to extinguish
anything around you, just wipe it all out.

1068
00:53:46,890 --> 00:53:47,724
[Book] I like that, extinguish.

1069
00:53:47,791 --> 00:53:49,192
I like that.

1070
00:53:49,259 --> 00:53:51,194
[Jd] I got to break that.
I got some skill, Book.

1071
00:53:51,261 --> 00:53:52,128
[Vic] Thank you very much.

1072
00:53:52,195 --> 00:53:53,964
Now, wait a minute, looking
for a gory bomb.

1073
00:53:54,030 --> 00:53:55,599
She tried it earlier.

1074
00:53:55,665 --> 00:53:59,836
Oh, taking care of Dolin one more time,
but Jayne from behind.

1075
00:53:59,903 --> 00:54:01,605
I think she's got a handful of tights.

1076
00:54:01,671 --> 00:54:02,739
Somehow, Fyre able to kick out.

1077
00:54:02,806 --> 00:54:06,176
For alba Fyre, this is about
a lot more than just a win.

1078
00:54:06,243 --> 00:54:11,047
She wants to set a Blaze
to toxic attraction.

1079
00:54:11,114 --> 00:54:12,582
Finally, the gory bomb hits.

1080
00:54:12,649 --> 00:54:15,252
[Book] That's got to be it right there.
That's got to be it.

1081
00:54:15,318 --> 00:54:16,586
[Vic] Hooking the leg.

1082
00:54:16,653 --> 00:54:17,587
[Vic] Wow.

1083
00:54:17,654 --> 00:54:19,990
[Vic] The first pillar has fallen
in toxic attraction.

1084
00:54:20,056 --> 00:54:21,658
[bell rings]

1085
00:54:21,725 --> 00:54:22,592
[Alba Fyre music plays]

1086
00:54:22,659 --> 00:54:25,595
[announcer] Here is your winner,
Alba Fyre.

1087
00:54:25,662 --> 00:54:28,565
[Vic] How good it must feel.
As I was getting ready to mention,

1088
00:54:28,632 --> 00:54:33,703
Alba Fyre has made it her mission
to win the NXT women's Championship,

1089
00:54:33,770 --> 00:54:36,573
to stake claim to this women's division,

1090
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,310
to bring honor back and prestige
to this brand.

1091
00:54:40,377 --> 00:54:43,346
What a match this was.
Jacy Jayne brought it tonight.

1092
00:54:43,413 --> 00:54:46,483
Let's not take anything away
from what Jacy Jayne did,

1093
00:54:46,549 --> 00:54:50,720
just wasn't enough to take down Alba
Fyre who continued to bring the offense.

1094
00:54:50,787 --> 00:54:53,790
Really, it was all Alba Fyre at certain
points in this match up.

1095
00:54:53,857 --> 00:54:55,392
Fyre was on top of her game,

1096
00:54:55,458 --> 00:55:01,331
bringing it, and was able to really
sidestep not only Jacy Jayne

1097
00:55:01,531 --> 00:55:04,901
but also Gigi Dolin throughout
the entire match.

1098
00:55:04,968 --> 00:55:06,002
You said it, it was two-on-one.

1099
00:55:06,069 --> 00:55:07,504
The x factor is on the outside,

1100
00:55:07,570 --> 00:55:13,510
but in the end, it was Alba Fyre
who was able to stand tall here tonight.

1101
00:55:13,576 --> 00:55:15,312
How good it must feel for Fyre

1102
00:55:15,378 --> 00:55:17,947
who now can focus a little bit clearer
on Mandy Rose

1103
00:55:18,014 --> 00:55:23,486
and the NXT women's Championship.

1104
00:55:23,553 --> 00:55:24,554
What alba fyre did to-- whoa,

1105
00:55:24,621 --> 00:55:26,723
what the hell?

1106
00:55:26,790 --> 00:55:28,024
[Book] What the hell is going on?

1107
00:55:28,091 --> 00:55:29,793
Oh.

1108
00:55:29,859 --> 00:55:31,861
[Vic] Who the?

1109
00:55:31,928 --> 00:55:32,896
[Book] You got to be kidding.

1110
00:55:32,962 --> 00:55:33,863
Sonya Deville.

1111
00:55:33,930 --> 00:55:35,665
[Book] Come on.

1112
00:55:35,732 --> 00:55:38,501
[Crowd chants "Sonya"]

1113
00:55:38,568 --> 00:55:43,073
[Vic] Is this the surprise that Dolin
and Jayne were talking about earlier?

1114
00:55:43,139 --> 00:55:46,743
Was Sonya Deville the ace up
their sleeve tonight?

1115
00:55:46,810 --> 00:55:50,180
[Book] Let me tell you, Sonya Deville
is the ultimate opportunist,

1116
00:55:50,714 --> 00:55:55,518
always looking to come up at somebody
else's expense.

1117
00:55:55,585 --> 00:55:59,089
That's what I cannot stand about
this woman.

1118
00:55:59,255 --> 00:56:04,561
[Vic] Now, toxic attraction jumping
in, joining Smack Down's Sonya deville.

1119
00:56:04,961 --> 00:56:07,130
What the hell is going on?

1120
00:56:07,197 --> 00:56:09,432
[Book] Deville is always looking for
the best deal in the house.

1121
00:56:09,499 --> 00:56:11,201
[Vic] Look at Deville.

1122
00:56:11,267 --> 00:56:13,970
Oh, we need some help out here.

1123
00:56:14,037 --> 00:56:19,442
[Book] You got to be kidding me. Come on.

1124
00:56:21,578 --> 00:56:23,646
[Vic] Well, I don't like the look
in Sonya's eyes.

1125
00:56:24,347 --> 00:56:31,087
I haven't seen this sort of glare from
Deville in quite some time.

1126
00:56:36,126 --> 00:56:37,260
[Book] Come on, come on.

1127
00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:44,467
[Vic] Book, there's a little bit of
a devil in those Jersey eyes.

1128
00:56:52,575 --> 00:56:59,315
[Toxic attraction's music plays]

1129
00:57:07,690 --> 00:57:13,263
What is he doing out there? Get security.

1130
00:57:17,667 --> 00:57:21,838
Cameron grimes, we tried
to bring you into our world,

1131
00:57:21,905 --> 00:57:24,574
but now we must eliminate you from it.

1132
00:57:24,641 --> 00:57:31,047
I tried so hard to save you from
your pathetic existence.

1133
00:57:31,347 --> 00:57:38,221
Now, you must face the full
force of schism, three-on-one,

1134
00:57:38,288 --> 00:57:42,225
because you and I both know you
have nobody to turn to.

1135
00:57:43,159 --> 00:57:44,794
You will fight, you will fight

1136
00:57:44,861 --> 00:57:47,263
just like Cameron grimes can.

1137
00:57:47,330 --> 00:57:52,969
You will use every ounce of oxygen
you have in your body

1138
00:57:53,036 --> 00:57:58,441
that is until you take your last gasp.

1139
00:58:08,418 --> 00:58:12,789
[Vic] Book, after all we've just witnessed
in the last 90 seconds,

1140
00:58:12,856 --> 00:58:17,293
chaos has just taken over NXT tonight.

1141
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:19,095
[Book] Yes, Sonya Deville.

1142
00:58:19,162 --> 00:58:20,864
[Vic] What is going on?

1143
00:58:20,930 --> 00:58:22,599
[Book] Sonya Deville looking
for the best deal.

1144
00:58:22,665 --> 00:58:23,633
That's what she's all about.

1145
00:58:23,700 --> 00:58:25,535
[Vic] And schism.

00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:34,310
Introducing first, Wes Lee.

1150
00:58:34,377 --> 00:58:37,947
[Vic] Well, someone who has had a chaotic
year is making his way to the ring.

1151
00:58:38,014 --> 00:58:39,449
It's Wes Lee.

1152
00:58:39,515 --> 00:58:43,653
He's in action going up against
Stacks one-on-one.

1153
00:58:44,087 --> 00:58:48,725
This match up is coming up next
here live on NXT.

1154
00:58:49,826 --> 00:58:52,462
WWE is incredibly proud
to partner with girl up.

1155
00:58:52,529 --> 00:58:57,066
We're creating and developing a program
together called sports for a purpose.

1156
00:58:57,133 --> 00:59:00,403
Something that excites
me about sports is that as a girl,

1157
00:59:00,470 --> 00:59:03,039
I get to break those barriers
that society has put upon us.

1158
00:59:03,306 --> 00:59:06,609
No matter what your body type
is, no matter where you come from,

1159
00:59:07,277 --> 00:59:08,678
there is a space for you within sports.

1160
00:59:12,715 --> 00:59:15,118
[Vic] Today is international day
of the girl.

1161
00:59:15,184 --> 00:59:19,222
WWE is proud to support our partners
at girl up who are working

1162
00:59:19,289 --> 00:59:23,026
to inspire young change
makers around the world.

1163
00:59:23,092 --> 00:59:26,963
Join WWE and girl up in advancing girls.

Zoey stark and Nikkita Lyons

1166
00:59:39,609 --> 00:59:42,679
Book themselves a tag team title
opportunity.

1167
00:59:42,745 --> 00:59:43,780
That sounds amazing,
but do you know what sounds even better?

1168
00:59:46,816 --> 00:59:47,951
Nikkita Lyons and Zoey Stark,

1169
00:59:48,484 --> 00:59:52,789
the new NXT women's tag team champions.

1170
00:59:55,291 --> 00:59:57,093
I understand Kayden and Katana

1171
00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:00,630
they are best friends
and have been together forever.

1172
01:00:00,697 --> 01:00:04,200
I get that, that's great,
but we complement each other.

1173
01:00:04,534 --> 01:00:06,602
You are the type of girl
of take it or leave it,

1174
01:00:06,669 --> 01:00:07,870
I don't care what anyone thinks,

1175
01:00:07,937 --> 01:00:10,206
and I tend to be a little bit more
reserved and that's okay.

1176
01:00:10,273 --> 01:00:13,076
You act like your focus
and determination is a bad thing,

1177
01:00:13,710 --> 01:00:14,611
it's not.

1178
01:00:17,413 --> 01:00:20,316
The truth is Zoey right there, a year,
year and a half ago

1179
01:00:20,383 --> 01:00:22,752
was in one of these and now
she's running one of these.

1180
01:00:22,819 --> 01:00:24,387
She's amazing.

1181
01:00:24,454 --> 01:00:26,089
She's been so helpful.

1182
01:00:28,191 --> 01:00:30,493
Dude, your drive is incredible.

1183
01:00:31,060 --> 01:00:34,364
What Zoey can do in that ring
is absolutely amazing.

1184
01:00:35,264 --> 01:00:37,500
Thank you so much, I really,
really appreciate it.

1185
01:00:37,567 --> 01:00:39,769
I got to tell you the way you
are developing so fast,

1186
01:00:40,970 --> 01:00:43,172
it's really fun to watch. Thanks.

1187
01:00:43,239 --> 01:00:44,207
[Indistinct]

1188
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,677
Starting to loosen up just
a little bit here.

1189
01:00:47,744 --> 01:00:51,647
A little bit. Come on. I can do that.

1190
01:00:51,714 --> 01:00:53,649
Okay, that's enough.

1191
01:00:54,350 --> 01:00:57,320
One thing that we can agree
on, is that no matter the time,

1192
01:00:57,387 --> 01:01:00,056
no matter the date,
when we get that title match,

1193
01:01:00,123 --> 01:01:04,093
we're becoming
NXT women's tag team champions.

1194
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:05,428
Hell, yes, we are.

1195

[crosstalk]

1196
01:01:14,070 --> 01:01:16,906
Zoey and Nikkita were firing
on all cylinders last week.

1197
01:01:17,173 --> 01:01:18,975
Look at them now,
they're the number one contenders

1198
01:01:19,042 --> 01:01:21,210
for the NXT women's tag titles.

1199
01:01:22,645 --> 01:01:25,848
That was last week, but next week,
Quincy, against xyon Quinn

1200
01:01:25,915 --> 01:01:27,483
just know I got your back
for real, though, seriously.

1201
01:01:27,550 --> 01:01:28,751
I appreciate that big Hanky.

1202
01:01:28,818 --> 01:01:31,020
Hey, boys, you guys be good, all right?

1203

1204
01:01:34,223 --> 01:01:36,159
Hanky?

1205
01:01:36,225 --> 01:01:39,128
Now that's chemistry right there.

1206
01:01:42,031 --> 01:01:42,999
I'm all for it.

[Tony d'Angelo's music plays]

1209
01:01:49,138 --> 01:01:53,376
[announcer] Introducing,
Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo.

1210
01:01:54,143 --> 01:01:55,978
[Vic] Let's go back two weeks
ago here on NXT,

1211
01:01:56,045 --> 01:02:00,083
it was actually Wes Lee competing against
"the Don" Tony d'Angelo

1212
01:02:00,149 --> 01:02:03,419
to earn an opportunity in the North
American Championship ladder match

1213
01:02:03,486 --> 01:02:07,590
at Halloween havoc. Right there you saw
just a simple drop toehold

1214
01:02:07,657 --> 01:02:10,993
if you were watching the match up.
When you take a little closer look,

1215
01:02:11,060 --> 01:02:14,130
damage was done to the right
knee of the Don.

1216
01:02:14,197 --> 01:02:15,198
The Don would be sidelined and,

1217
01:02:15,264 --> 01:02:18,201
well, the Don and Stacks believe
that Wes Lee did that on purpose.

1218
01:02:18,267 --> 01:02:19,368
[bell rings]

1219
01:02:19,435 --> 01:02:22,805
[Book] Wes Lee better understand
that accidents happen

1220
01:02:22,872 --> 01:02:25,741
and you can't be thinking about
if something's going to happen

1221
01:02:25,808 --> 01:02:28,444
to your opponent like that or not,
you got to be thinking about winning,

1222
01:02:28,511 --> 01:02:29,579
you got to be thinking about Championship.

1223
01:02:29,645 --> 01:02:30,780
That's the name of the game.

1224
01:02:31,314 --> 01:02:33,583
[Vic] Look, you believe Wes Lee
that that wasn't intentional.

1225
01:02:33,649 --> 01:02:35,518
He was out there trying
to hurt Tony d'Angelo.

1226
01:02:35,885 --> 01:02:36,819
It just didn't happen.

1227
01:02:37,587 --> 01:02:39,589
[Book] The aim of the game
is to hurt your opponent.

1228
01:02:40,022 --> 01:02:41,657
If you did, I have no problem with that.

1229
01:02:42,225 --> 01:02:45,394
[Vic] Right now, Wes Lee taking
it to Stacks, nice dropkick.

1230
01:02:45,461 --> 01:02:48,264
-[Book] Beautiful dropkick.
-[Vic] Look, Wes Lee has had to overcome

1231
01:02:48,331 --> 01:02:53,035
so much this year. He truly has played
the hand that he's been dealt,

1232
01:02:53,102 --> 01:02:55,037
and he's now looking
for a cover and a count

1233
01:02:55,104 --> 01:02:57,173
and a victory and a kick out by Stacks.

1234
01:02:57,240 --> 01:02:58,141
[Book] I'll tell you, Wes Lee,

1235
01:02:58,207 --> 01:03:00,576
what I've seen in this guy he's got
a lot of talent,

1236
01:03:00,643 --> 01:03:01,544
just got to stay focused.

1237
01:03:01,611 --> 01:03:04,046
I think that's his biggest
problem, staying focused.

1238
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:07,583
[Vic] Right now, he was focused in because
he almost saw the middle turnbuckle

1239
01:03:07,650 --> 01:03:10,753
much like the Don did two weeks ago
and it was Stacks and D'Angelo

1240
01:03:10,820 --> 01:03:15,391
who have said they know how to make
something look like an accident.

1241
01:03:15,458 --> 01:03:16,425
[Book] Let me ask you a question.

1242
01:03:16,592 --> 01:03:18,294
Do you think Stacks just tried
to hurt Wes Lee right there?

1243
01:03:18,361 --> 01:03:19,662
[Vic] 100%.

1244
01:03:19,729 --> 01:03:21,864
[Book] Exactly my point.

1245
01:03:21,931 --> 01:03:24,700
[Vic] Stacks has been sent on a message
from the Don and that's to soften up

1246
01:03:24,767 --> 01:03:27,737
and now there's no doubt about Stacks.

1247
01:03:27,803 --> 01:03:31,073
He's focusing on, what would you say,
an eye for an eye, a knee for a knee?

1248
01:03:31,140 --> 01:03:33,676
[Book] Yes, it is. Right now,
he's working on that PCL,

1249
01:03:33,743 --> 01:03:37,647
that posterior cruciate ligament,
and trust me,

1250
01:03:37,713 --> 01:03:40,616
I know all about that injury right there.
You don't want that.

1251
01:03:41,717 --> 01:03:44,620
[Vic] Stacks said he plans to show
Lee the consequences

1252
01:03:44,687 --> 01:03:46,455
for his actions two weeks ago,

1253
01:03:46,789 --> 01:03:51,961
and Stacks taking it to Wes Lee
and continuing to focus on the left knee.

1254
01:03:52,028 --> 01:03:55,331
You got to think for Wes Lee
a week from Saturday

1255
01:03:55,398 --> 01:03:57,033
if he can make it to Halloween havoc,

1256
01:03:57,099 --> 01:03:59,268
how's he going to climb
up a ladder to retrieve the North

1257
01:03:59,335 --> 01:04:00,803
American title with a bad wheel?

1258
01:04:00,870 --> 01:04:02,205
[Book] I think I was talking
about that earlier

1259
01:04:02,271 --> 01:04:04,006
as far as getting hurt is one thing,

1260
01:04:04,073 --> 01:04:06,909
getting injured is something
totally different.

1261
01:04:06,976 --> 01:04:11,047
Right now, Stacks has nothing
on his mind but taking Wes Lee

1262
01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:12,315
totally out of the game.

1263
01:04:12,381 --> 01:04:15,117
[Crowd chants "let's go, Wes"]

01:04:16,085 --> 01:04:17,153
[Vic] NXT universe trying to rally

1265
01:04:17,220 --> 01:04:20,756
Wes Lee, who really has started
to turn around his year,

1266
01:04:20,823 --> 01:04:24,660
would love to continue to build more
momentum towards Halloween havoc,

1267
01:04:24,727 --> 01:04:27,663
but he has been grounded by Stacks.

1268
01:04:28,197 --> 01:04:31,634
[Book] Think about it, Wes Lee came
into this match he wasn't focused

1269
01:04:31,701 --> 01:04:34,370
and that's why he's in this position
right now.

1270
01:04:34,437 --> 01:04:37,340
He was thinking about whether
he hurt someone or not.

1271
01:04:37,406 --> 01:04:39,942
You cannot be thinking about that
when you're trying

1272
01:04:40,009 --> 01:04:42,912
to get paid in this business.

1273
01:04:42,979 --> 01:04:45,848
[Vic] Of course, Wes Lee would love
to once again wear gold

1274
01:04:45,915 --> 01:04:47,416
and that could happen at Halloween havoc,

1275
01:04:47,483 --> 01:04:50,453
but he also doesn't want anyone
tarnishing his name.

1276
01:04:50,519 --> 01:04:54,490
He's worked hard all year long
to get back on the straight

1277
01:04:54,557 --> 01:04:56,259
and narrow path,
to put everything behind him,

1278
01:04:56,692 --> 01:05:00,529
to refocus his career, and right
now he is focused back in on Stacks.

1279
01:05:01,897 --> 01:05:05,167
You can just see that fire Book
in Wes Lee, can't you?

1280
01:05:05,234 --> 01:05:06,202
[Book] Like I said, this kid has a--

1281
01:05:06,269 --> 01:05:07,837
[Vic] oh, watch out, ref.

1282
01:05:07,904 --> 01:05:09,272
[Book] He's so talented,
he's a tremendous athlete,

1283
01:05:09,338 --> 01:05:14,543
but the one thing I think about when
I look at the next level of superstar,

1284
01:05:14,610 --> 01:05:16,145
I'm looking to see
if these guys are smart.

1285
01:05:16,212 --> 01:05:17,113
[Vic] Oh.

1286
01:05:18,681 --> 01:05:19,915
[Book] See what I'm talking about?

1287
01:05:19,982 --> 01:05:23,753
He may be injured and that's the one
thing you do not want.

1288
01:05:23,819 --> 01:05:26,455
[Vic] That just opened the door
and-- oh, nice,

1289
01:05:27,590 --> 01:05:32,628
high-powered offense from Stacks.
Into the cover and a kick out by Lee.

1290
01:05:32,695 --> 01:05:34,030
[Book] Wow, that was close.

1291
01:05:34,096 --> 01:05:35,197
[Vic] You take a look at Stacks,

1292
01:05:35,264 --> 01:05:37,366
we haven't seen Stacks
brought this sort of offense.

1293
01:05:37,433 --> 01:05:38,801
He's someone who in your eyes

1294
01:05:38,868 --> 01:05:41,170
maybe he's upping his game
in recent weeks here in NXT.

1295
01:05:41,237 --> 01:05:42,138
[Book] You got to look at it, man,

1296
01:05:42,204 --> 01:05:47,710
and when you think about Championships,
you think about moving to that next level.

1297
01:05:47,777 --> 01:05:50,279
It's all about trying to take that spot.

1298
01:05:50,346 --> 01:05:53,082
You look at Stacks right now,
he's a kid that's on a roll.

1299
01:05:53,149 --> 01:05:55,885
[Vic] He is on a roll and he's doing
the bidding of the Don.

1300
01:05:55,952 --> 01:05:59,155
Now Wes Lee maybe getting
his second, maybe getting his third

1301
01:05:59,221 --> 01:06:01,557
wind in this match up,
but is this wise on a bad wheel?

1302
01:06:01,624 --> 01:06:02,725
[Book] That's what I was just
thinking about,

1303
01:06:02,792 --> 01:06:04,660
he's going to be on top, he's going
to be thinking about that wheel.

1304
01:06:04,727 --> 01:06:07,263
He's going to haveto-- [Vic] oh,

1305
01:06:07,330 --> 01:06:11,467
high risk all reward for the cardiac
kid and now Lee into the cover.

1306
01:06:11,534 --> 01:06:13,469
[Book] Didn't get all of it.
One, two, three.

1307
01:06:13,536 --> 01:06:14,437
-[Book] Didn't give all of it, though.
-[Vic] But he got enough of it, Book.

1308
01:06:14,503 --> 01:06:15,371
[Book] Wow. [bell rings]

1309
01:06:15,438 --> 01:06:16,505
[Vic] What a victory for Lee.

1310
01:06:17,173 --> 01:06:20,409
[Wes Lee's music plays]
[announcer] Here's your winner, Wes Lee.

1311
01:06:20,476 --> 01:06:22,778
[Vic] We can say what
we want heading into the match

1312
01:06:22,845 --> 01:06:23,846
about what he was thinking about,

1313
01:06:24,313 --> 01:06:25,614
in the end, he punched it.

1314
01:06:26,615 --> 01:06:27,717
Whoa. [Book] Wow.

1315
01:06:28,017 --> 01:06:32,021
[Vic] Trick Williams/Lee just got done.

1316
01:06:32,088 --> 01:06:34,490
What a match up with Stacks
and trick Williams out of nowhere.

1317
01:06:35,124 --> 01:06:37,660
Oh, there's Carmelo Hayes. [Crowd cheers]

1318
01:06:37,727 --> 01:06:41,397
[Book] That boy right there.
That's that boy Carmelo Hayes,

1319
01:06:41,464 --> 01:06:43,532
he's on top of the world, ma.

1320
01:06:44,333 --> 01:06:46,102
[Vic] That's one of your fav five.

1321
01:06:46,168 --> 01:06:48,904
[Book] Yes, let me tell you right now,
he's number one in the fav five.

1322
01:06:48,971 --> 01:06:51,374
[Vic] There's mensah,
they're trying even the odds.

1323
01:06:51,440 --> 01:06:52,775
Mensah, Hayes, Lee.

1324
01:06:52,842 --> 01:06:57,013
Three on five that will compete
at Halloween havoc.

1325
01:06:57,847 --> 01:06:59,215
[Book] There goes trick.

1326
01:07:01,250 --> 01:07:04,520
[Vic] Mensah wasn't going to stand
by and see a two-on-one

1327
01:07:04,587 --> 01:07:06,889
offensive onslaught against Wes Lee.

1328
01:07:06,956 --> 01:07:08,391
[Book] Carmelo, you got the move.
All right.

1329
01:07:08,457 --> 01:07:10,092
[Vic] He got helped out by trick Williams,

1330
01:07:12,194 --> 01:07:13,796
didn't know if-- whoa, Wes Lee.

1331
01:07:13,863 --> 01:07:14,964
[crowd cheers]

1332
01:07:15,197 --> 01:07:19,702
[Book] On that bad wheel, still
willing to throw caution to the wind.

1333
01:07:19,769 --> 01:07:20,870
[crowd chants "NXT"]

1334
01:07:20,936 --> 01:07:23,205
[music]

1335
01:07:23,606 --> 01:07:26,709
[Vic] This is some of the action
that NXT is all about.

1336
01:07:26,776 --> 01:07:31,647
Carmelo Hayes staring a hole in Wes Lee,
but Lee ain't backing down.

[crosstalk]

1338
01:07:34,583 --> 01:07:37,887
And it felt really gratifying.
You guys are great.

1339
01:07:37,953 --> 01:07:40,156
Excuse me, ladies.
Can I ask you why you're here?

1340
01:07:40,222 --> 01:07:41,991
Thanks, Jacy.
I think that's pretty obvious.

1341
01:07:42,691 --> 01:07:44,894
Pretty obvious? Why don't you ask alba
fyre that because, actually,

1342
01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:46,462
she was very surprised to see me.

1343
01:07:46,996 --> 01:07:49,732
Now Mandy and I may
have had our differences,

1344
01:07:49,799 --> 01:07:51,634
but she's still my best friend.

1345
01:07:51,801 --> 01:07:56,105
If Jacy and Gigi are her girls,
then, in turn, they're my girls.

1346
01:07:56,172 --> 01:07:57,506
Does that make sense?

1347
01:07:57,573 --> 01:08:01,610
Now, I don't know what alba Fyre
thinking with her burning flaming bat,

1348
01:08:01,677 --> 01:08:03,212
or whatever the hell it's called,

1349
01:08:03,279 --> 01:08:05,915
but I think she might have burned
off a couple of her brain cells,

1350
01:08:06,215 --> 01:08:10,686
because you can't just abduct the greatest
women's champion in history of NXT

1351
01:08:11,087 --> 01:08:13,923
and expect to get away
with it consequence free.

1352
01:08:14,390 --> 01:08:17,426
You get that. That's why I'm here.

1353
01:08:17,493 --> 01:08:21,530
Now why you're here, Kenzi,
I want you to do something for me.

1354
01:08:21,597 --> 01:08:25,668
I want you to go wait outside
of medical and when alba comes out,

1355
01:08:25,734 --> 01:08:28,904
I want you to tell her that next
week I'm going to be standing

1356
01:08:28,971 --> 01:08:32,341
inside the ring waiting for her.

1357
01:08:32,408 --> 01:08:37,847
If she chooses to show up, she's not going
to make it to Halloween havoc.

1358
01:08:39,181 --> 01:08:42,585
You can go now. Bye.

1359

[music]

1360
01:08:51,126 --> 01:08:52,394
Look who it is.

1361
01:08:52,761 --> 01:08:56,165
What's up, fellas?
Feels so good to see you guys.

1362
01:08:56,599 --> 01:08:58,701
I'm almost ready to get out of here.

1363
01:08:58,767 --> 01:09:00,736
Not going to lie, it is tough
seeing you like this.

1364
01:09:01,136 --> 01:09:03,172
You like better than you did last week,
though.

1365
01:09:03,239 --> 01:09:07,643
Hey, one day at a time.
What's up, big Bruti?

1366
01:09:09,144 --> 01:09:11,280
Damon's going to pay
for what he did to you, Rody.

1367
01:09:12,181 --> 01:09:13,315
At Halloween havoc,

1368
01:09:13,382 --> 01:09:15,784
Julie's going to be the one to put
him in an ambulance.

1369
01:09:16,285 --> 01:09:18,721
I hope they got some extra
beds here at this hospital

1370
01:09:18,787 --> 01:09:21,157
because that's exactly where
Damon's going to end up.

1371
01:09:21,423 --> 01:09:23,626
I'm sure they can find the space.

1372
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:27,596
Listen, I just want to tell
you guys something.

1373
01:09:30,399 --> 01:09:31,400
I'm sorry.

1374
01:09:33,335 --> 01:09:35,237
I'm the one that brought Damon in,

1375
01:09:35,738 --> 01:09:40,042
I'm the one that asked you guys
to trust me and that might

1376
01:09:40,109 --> 01:09:41,310
be the reason diamond mine is over.

1377
01:09:41,744 --> 01:09:43,979
hat's not going to happen, rod, I got us.

1378
01:09:44,480 --> 01:09:49,251
A few weeks ago, I would
be fighting right by your side.

1379
01:09:49,852 --> 01:09:56,792
I can't, but you guys can.

1380
01:09:57,526 --> 01:09:58,827
At Halloween havoc,

1381
01:10:00,162 --> 01:10:03,232
Julius, I just need one thing.

1382
01:10:03,299 --> 01:10:06,168
Anything you name. Win,

1383
01:10:07,703 --> 01:10:09,271
because it's diamond mine

1384
01:10:14,843 --> 01:10:16,378

Let me tell you right now,
Julius is in a must-win situation.

1387
01:10:25,221 --> 01:10:26,288
I call this a moment,

1388
01:10:26,355 --> 01:10:29,692
a moment where he's going to have to step
up and do it for his brother.

1389
01:10:29,758 --> 01:10:31,894
He's going to have to.
It is an ambulance match.

1390
01:10:31,961 --> 01:10:35,464
A week from Saturday at the Halloween
havoc premium live event,

1391

Julius creed, Damon Kemp, but you said it,
if Julius creed doesn't win,

1392
01:10:39,568 --> 01:10:43,639
Brutus creed is out of NXT.

chase university, thea hail.

for thea hail who signed

1401
01:11:50,706 --> 01:11:53,208
with chase u over the summer.
This was last week.

1402
01:11:53,275 --> 01:12:00,115
This was proof why thea hail was the top
recruit for chase u. Just manhandling

1403
01:12:00,416 --> 01:12:04,053
Mr. Stone last week here on NXT.

1404
01:12:06,055 --> 01:12:07,089
You talk about a ball of energy.

That's thea hail.

Thea hail has always
got a smile on her face.

She hasn't missed a class.
She takes extra credit.

1408
01:12:15,197 --> 01:12:18,000
She's got a 5.6 GPA at Chase U.

1409
01:12:18,067 --> 01:12:19,768

you get that sort of grade.

Listen, I'm sorry to interrupt,
Kiana, but I have some business

1419
01:12:38,687 --> 01:12:39,722
I need to talk about,

because right now I should be celebrating
Von Wagner going to Halloween havoc

Do you really think it was a good idea
to put your hands on Mr. Stone?

Now, I'm going to ruin your night.

Mr. Stone is getting what he deserves.

Would you wear white socks
with that outfit, Book?

1431
01:13:34,309 --> 01:13:37,279
[Book] That is the ugliest suit I've
ever seen in my life.

Don, how are you doing, man?
You good? How're you feeling?

1441
01:14:19,988 --> 01:14:21,824
Better than you.

1442
01:14:22,491 --> 01:14:26,061
You just lost to Wes Lee
and a few weeks ago I told you to get

1443
01:14:26,128 --> 01:14:29,631
off that apron, but you didn't want
to listen, so what happened?

1444
01:14:29,898 --> 01:14:31,733
I blew my PCL into a million pieces.

1445
01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:34,703
Tony, you know I'm sorry about that.

1446
01:14:35,037 --> 01:14:39,608
You said it yourself, actions
have consequences and you're going

1447
01:14:39,675 --> 01:14:43,745
to feel those consequences
next week because you got another match.

1448
01:14:44,213 --> 01:14:45,614
Against Wes Lee?

1449
01:14:45,814 --> 01:14:47,683
No.

1450
01:14:47,749 --> 01:14:48,817
I'll see you at the court.

1451
01:14:48,884 --> 01:14:52,855
Hold on, Tony. You know I'll fight
anybody, but who is it?

1452
01:14:54,523 --> 01:14:57,826
You remember that time in 8th
grade when you beat up Ralphie

1453
01:14:57,893 --> 01:14:59,862
because he cut you in line at lunch?

1454
01:15:00,028 --> 01:15:00,996
That was a war.

1455
01:15:01,430 --> 01:15:02,931
Nobody disrespects me like that.

1456
01:15:03,632 --> 01:15:06,034
It's going to be something like that.

1457
01:15:06,101 --> 01:15:07,135
Against who though?

Ilja Dragunov didn't need
much convincing to stay here tonight

after what we saw earlier tonight.

1468

Grayson Waller ran his mouth.

01:16:05,761 --> 01:16:08,263
Oh, I'm sorry. Is something funny?

1473
01:16:08,330 --> 01:16:10,399
Stone, what the hell was that?

1474
01:16:10,465 --> 01:16:11,433
Listen, Von, she's just--

1475
01:16:11,500 --> 01:16:12,968
you need to calm down.

1476
01:16:13,035 --> 01:16:15,203
We got less than two weeks
until Halloween havoc.

1477
01:16:15,270 --> 01:16:16,271
It's time to get serious.

1478
01:16:16,338 --> 01:16:17,205
I get it, but what--

1479
01:16:17,272 --> 01:16:18,373
cut he --.

1480
01:16:19,007 --> 01:16:21,710
We already know who I'm up against
in this ladder match.

1481
01:16:21,877 --> 01:16:24,413
I need you locked in to make sure nobody

1482
01:16:24,580 --> 01:16:26,882
stops me from grabbing that North
American title.

1483
01:16:26,949 --> 01:16:27,883
You're right.

1484
01:16:27,950 --> 01:16:28,951
I'm sorry. Okay.

1485
01:16:29,017 --> 01:16:30,886
Sometimes old habits creep up,

1486
01:16:31,186 --> 01:16:33,088
but it's time for you to be champion.

1487
01:16:33,889 --> 01:16:35,257
That's more like it.

1488
01:16:39,761 --> 01:16:40,596
I'm here with Cameron grimes.

1489
01:16:40,662 --> 01:16:43,599
Cameron, an upset schism
challenged you to a match.

1490
01:16:43,665 --> 01:16:45,767
Do you plan to go at it alone or
have partners?

1491
01:16:45,968 --> 01:16:49,705
Mckenzie Mitchell,
what a difference a week makes.

1492
01:16:49,972 --> 01:16:54,209
I'd be lying if I didn't say it
felt so good to cost the dyad

1493
01:16:54,376 --> 01:16:56,011
on that number one contendership.

1494
01:16:57,412 --> 01:17:01,083
Joe's right, there is no one
in NXT that I trust.

1495
01:17:01,416 --> 01:17:03,418
You won't go out alone, three-on-one?

1496
01:17:04,152 --> 01:17:09,825
I may not trust anyone in NXT,
but that doesn't count all of the WWE.

1497
01:17:09,891 --> 01:17:10,926
I'll see you next week.

1498
01:17:12,327 --> 01:17:13,428
Vic and Booker.

1499
01:17:13,495 --> 01:17:15,497
No, you are not going back
to Booker and Vic.

1500
01:17:15,564 --> 01:17:16,632
You stay with me.

1501
01:17:16,698 --> 01:17:20,202
Roxanne Perez wants to go to Smack Down,
you think she knows someone at Smack Down?

1502
01:17:20,268 --> 01:17:21,136
Guess what?

1503
01:17:21,203 --> 01:17:24,172
Rhea Ripley just got back to me
and she wants me to go to raw.

1504
01:17:24,239 --> 01:17:27,876
Look. You can see for yourself.
Roxanne wants to go to Smack Down?

1505
01:17:27,943 --> 01:17:29,778
Fine, I'm going to raw.

1506
01:17:29,845 --> 01:17:30,712
Ha.

1507
01:17:33,749 --> 01:17:35,751
[Vic] Book, you just heard from Cora Jade.

1508
01:17:35,817 --> 01:17:38,020
Both women have reached
out to their friends.

1509
01:17:38,086 --> 01:17:43,792
Both Perez and Jade will pick the other's
poison next week here live on NXT.

1510
01:17:43,859 --> 01:17:47,062
Speaking of picking opponents,
how about the Don?

1511
01:17:47,129 --> 01:17:49,197
We heard from Tony d'Angelo
earlier tonight,

1512
01:17:49,264 --> 01:17:53,735
Stacks is going to be in action again next
week, but who his opponent be?

1513
01:17:53,802 --> 01:17:56,638
The Don said Stacks will know
when he hears his opponent's

1514
01:17:56,705 --> 01:18:01,243
theme song next week here on NXT live.

1515
01:18:01,309 --> 01:18:02,310
Not to be outdone,

1516
01:18:02,377 --> 01:18:05,480
Sonya Deville shocked the world when
she returned to NXT

1517
01:18:05,547 --> 01:18:08,150
earlier tonight to stand
with toxic attraction.

1518
01:18:08,316 --> 01:18:15,023
Can she put out the flame of Alba Fyre
next week here live on NXT.

1519
01:18:16,658 --> 01:18:18,326
[Grayson Waller's music plays]

1520
01:18:18,393 --> 01:18:24,599
[Crowd boos]

1521
01:18:25,167 --> 01:18:30,205
[announcer] Making his way to the ring,
Grayson Waller.

1522
01:18:31,406 --> 01:18:35,610
[Vic] Grayson Waller can see just
fine apparently.

1523
01:18:35,677 --> 01:18:38,080
He better have his eyes on the ball,

1524
01:18:38,413 --> 01:18:42,184
not just tonight in this main event
against Ilja Dragunov,

1525
01:18:42,250 --> 01:18:46,221
but also what's on the horizon
for the arrogant

1526
01:18:46,288 --> 01:18:50,459
Aussie Grayson Waller as he has been
running his mouth

1527
01:18:50,525 --> 01:18:52,894
for weeks 3 after week after week.

1528
01:18:52,961 --> 01:18:56,798
That includes being on the Grayson
Waller effect,

1529
01:18:56,865 --> 01:19:01,369
as he's really got under the skin
of the Apollo crews.

1530
01:19:01,436 --> 01:19:05,407
We heard from Apollo earlier tonight,
it will be crews and Waller, of course,

1531
01:19:05,474 --> 01:19:09,711
going one-on-one a week from Saturday
at Halloween havoc

1532
01:19:09,778 --> 01:19:12,981
but Waller's got to focus
on the here and to now.

1533
01:19:13,048 --> 01:19:15,717
[Book] I love a little trash talk
if you can back it up.

1534
01:19:15,784 --> 01:19:18,286
I look at this guy, Grayson Waller,
he's self-confident,

1535
01:19:18,353 --> 01:19:20,589
he's self-centered, he's selfish.

1536
01:19:20,655 --> 01:19:24,126
You think need all of those qualities
to be a champion in this business,

1537
01:19:24,326 --> 01:19:26,094
let's see how he works.

1538
01:19:29,464 --> 01:19:30,766
[Vic] Waller calling a timeout.

1539
01:19:30,832 --> 01:19:32,567
We all know there's no timeouts
here in NXT,

1540
01:19:32,634 --> 01:19:36,004
but NXT universe has been fired
up tonight,

1541
01:19:36,071 --> 01:19:38,140
Book, since the very beginning.

1542
01:19:38,206 --> 01:19:39,174
[Book] You know why, don't you?

1543
01:19:39,241 --> 01:19:41,676
-[Vic] Because you're here.
-[Book] Because the wait is over,

1544
01:19:41,743 --> 01:19:42,744
baby.

1545
01:19:42,811 --> 01:19:44,146
Big take down there by Dragunov.

1546
01:19:44,212 --> 01:19:45,113
Beautiful.

1547
01:19:45,313 --> 01:19:46,615
[Vic] Dragunov in control.

1548
01:19:46,681 --> 01:19:48,784
Look, Dragunov wasn't planning
on competing tonight,

1549
01:19:48,850 --> 01:19:50,485
but he is a superstar.

1550
01:19:50,552 --> 01:19:52,053
He is a person who is always ready,

1551
01:19:52,287 --> 01:19:54,923
is always trying to push forward
and persevere.

1552
01:19:54,990 --> 01:19:56,258
[Book] You know what they say.

1553
01:19:56,324 --> 01:19:58,260
If you stay ready,
you ain't got to get ready.

1554
01:19:58,727 --> 01:19:59,694
[Vic] That's true.

1555
01:19:59,761 --> 01:20:01,696
When you talk about on the
horizon for Grayson Waller,

1556
01:20:01,763 --> 01:20:03,598
what's on the horizon
for Ilja Dragunov though?

1557
01:20:03,665 --> 01:20:06,501
Huge Championship match up
at Halloween havoc against

1558
01:20:06,568 --> 01:20:08,703
Bron Breakker and of course JD Mcdonagh.

1559
01:20:08,937 --> 01:20:09,905
[Book] It starts right here tonight.

1560
01:20:09,971 --> 01:20:11,807
You got to go out here,
you got to beat Grayson Waller.

1561
01:20:11,873 --> 01:20:14,876
If you don't do that,
you just move right back down that line.

1562
01:20:14,943 --> 01:20:16,011
You don't want to do that.

1563
01:20:16,077 --> 01:20:19,915
I'm going to tell you right now,
Waller is very, very capable.

1564
01:20:19,981 --> 01:20:22,584
[Vic] You think it's hard though
for someone like Dragunov

1565
01:20:22,651 --> 01:20:26,588
to stay focused on this match up with just
short notice with what he has coming up?

1566
01:20:27,189 --> 01:20:30,559
[Book] Sometimes you work better
under pressure.

1567
01:20:30,625 --> 01:20:32,727
Right now, Dragunov is under
a lot of pressure,

1568
01:20:33,461 --> 01:20:37,866
and the one thing you do not want to do
is go out and lose to Grayson Waller.

1569
01:20:37,933 --> 01:20:40,669
This guy will laugh you into the abyss.

1570
01:20:40,735 --> 01:20:41,937
[Crowd cheers] [Vic] Yes.

1571
01:20:42,003 --> 01:20:43,171
[Book] Beautiful.

1572
01:20:46,541 --> 01:20:51,413
[Vic] There's that unbridled rage
that pours out of Dragunov,

1573
01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:54,316
and you're seeing it right
now firsthand, Book.

1574
01:20:54,382 --> 01:20:55,584
Dragunov charging right at--

1575
01:20:55,650 --> 01:20:58,520
how does that rage help
a competitor such as Dragunov?

1576
01:20:58,587 --> 01:20:59,654
[Book] You got to have it.

1577
01:20:59,721 --> 01:21:01,289
That's one thing about this business.

1578
01:21:01,356 --> 01:21:03,525
You're going to run into certain
competitors.

1579
01:21:03,592 --> 01:21:06,895
If you don't have that fire
that burns deep within,

1580
01:21:06,962 --> 01:21:09,331
you're not going to last long in NXT.

1581
01:21:10,665 --> 01:21:12,234
[Vic] Trying to break the hold

1582
01:21:12,300 --> 01:21:16,571
and you can hear the NXT is firmly
behind Dragunov in this match up.

1583
01:21:18,006 --> 01:21:20,175
There's Waller begging
for a little separation,

1584
01:21:20,342 --> 01:21:22,010
and to Waller who got himself
into this mess.

1585
01:21:22,077 --> 01:21:24,112
Oh, and a cheap shot to the throat.

1586
01:21:24,179 --> 01:21:25,046
[Book] No.

1587
01:21:25,113 --> 01:21:27,883
That was called a shortcut right there.

1588
01:21:27,949 --> 01:21:30,986
It's very, very well taken
in this business right there.

1589
01:21:31,052 --> 01:21:32,721
I like that.

1590
01:21:32,787 --> 01:21:34,923
[Vic] Measuring Dragunov.

1591
01:21:34,990 --> 01:21:36,024
[Book] What is that?

1592
01:21:36,091 --> 01:21:38,059
That was some form of a sidekick.

1593
01:21:38,126 --> 01:21:43,331
[Vic] Now, he's looking over at you
and Waller right now in co--

1594
01:21:46,401 --> 01:21:49,104
Waller fired up everybody in NXT.

1595
01:21:51,773 --> 01:21:53,642
[Crowd claps]

1596
01:21:53,708 --> 01:21:54,976
[Vic] Back live on NXT.

1597
01:21:55,043 --> 01:21:58,713
This the main event Dragunov,
Waller going one-on-one,

1598
01:21:58,980 --> 01:22:01,149
it was Waller who basically talked
himself into this match up.

1599
01:22:01,216 --> 01:22:02,851
Dragunov was leaving.

1600
01:22:02,918 --> 01:22:05,320
Of course, Waller's mouth
got him into trouble.

1601
01:22:05,387 --> 01:22:09,224
Right now, Waller is taking
it to Dragunov in this match up.

1602
01:22:09,291 --> 01:22:11,693
Book, what a main event
on your first night here.

1603
01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:14,095
You're getting to see
Grayson Waller firsthand.

1604
01:22:14,162 --> 01:22:17,399
He goes on social media all the time.
He's all about going viral.

1605
01:22:17,465 --> 01:22:20,368
He gets under his skin very easily,
especially when people call him Miz-lite.

1606
01:22:20,435 --> 01:22:21,836
[Book] [Laughs]

1607
01:22:21,903 --> 01:22:23,471
I could tell you right now I'm--

1608
01:22:23,838 --> 01:22:25,573
[Vic] inside cradle. Shoulders down.

1609
01:22:25,640 --> 01:22:26,508
Near fall.

1610
01:22:26,574 --> 01:22:28,243
[Book] I'm rooting for Dragunov
in this match,

1611
01:22:28,310 --> 01:22:32,480
but being somewhat Miz-lite,
that's not a bad thing.

1612
01:22:32,547 --> 01:22:36,584
Miz is very arrogant, but you got guys
like Piper who's very arrogant as well.

1613
01:22:36,918 --> 01:22:39,888
Guys like Brian pillman
who was very arrogant

1614
01:22:39,955 --> 01:22:42,457
who had a bidding war
with him once upon a time.

1615
01:22:42,524 --> 01:22:44,793
I look at a kid like Grayson Waller,
the more you talk,

1616
01:22:44,859 --> 01:22:48,263
if you can back it up,
you put yourself in a good position.

1617
01:22:48,930 --> 01:22:50,899
Me personally, I don't like the guy.

1618
01:22:50,965 --> 01:22:51,866
[crowd chants "one more time"]

1619
01:22:52,167 --> 01:22:53,201
[Vic] We talk about what's coming up.

1620
01:22:54,202 --> 01:22:55,070
[Book] Beautiful job.

1621
01:22:55,136 --> 01:22:56,004
[Vic] Next week.

1622
01:22:56,071 --> 01:22:57,572
It's really about the unknown.

1623
01:22:57,639 --> 01:23:00,909
Who's Cameron grimes going
to find as his partner against schism.

1624
01:23:01,142 --> 01:23:03,011
Who is Cora Jade and Roxanne Perez

1625
01:23:03,511 --> 01:23:06,147
going to pick as their pick
the poison competitors?

1626
01:23:06,214 --> 01:23:07,983
Then you think about Tony D'Angelo.

1627
01:23:08,049 --> 01:23:10,652
Who's he going to find for Stacks?

1628
01:23:10,719 --> 01:23:12,687
Book, expect the unexpected here in NXT.

1629
01:23:12,854 --> 01:23:14,990
What a main event this has been.

1630
01:23:15,056 --> 01:23:15,991
[Book] I tell you.

1631
01:23:16,057 --> 01:23:17,592
Right now, Grayson Waller is down.

1632
01:23:17,659 --> 01:23:19,461
He's in a bad, bad position.

1633
01:23:19,828 --> 01:23:22,063
Dragunov looking to put him away
right now.

1634
01:23:22,297 --> 01:23:23,164
[Vic] Right now,

1635
01:23:23,231 --> 01:23:25,667
Dragunov trying to build momentum
towards Halloween

1636
01:23:25,734 --> 01:23:29,671
havoc in his triple threat match
against Bron Breakker, JD Mcdonagh.

1637
01:23:29,738 --> 01:23:30,839
For Grayson Waller,

1638
01:23:30,905 --> 01:23:35,443
he's trying to build momentum because
he'll be going up against Apollo crews

1639
01:23:35,510 --> 01:23:37,579
one-on-one a week from Saturday

1640
01:23:37,645 --> 01:23:40,682
at the Halloween havoc premium live event.

1641
01:23:40,749 --> 01:23:44,619
Now, Dragunov is starting
to focus in and here's

1642
01:23:44,686 --> 01:23:46,221
where we talk about that unbridled rage.

1643
01:23:46,287 --> 01:23:47,122
[Book] Yes.

1644
01:23:47,188 --> 01:23:50,191
Just landing some
unorthodox form of a suplex,

1645
01:23:50,692 --> 01:23:52,594
and right now going for a belly to back,

1646
01:23:52,660 --> 01:23:55,663
but Grayson--
now that right there is a--

1647
01:23:55,730 --> 01:23:56,965
[Vic] was that to the eye?

1648
01:23:57,032 --> 01:23:58,967
[Book] That was a veteran move
right there, right to the nose.

1649
01:23:59,768 --> 01:24:02,036
[Vic] A kick right
to the stomach, following up,

1650
01:24:02,203 --> 01:24:05,874
and look at the combination offense
now from Grayson Waller.

1651
01:24:07,442 --> 01:24:09,477
We talked about Grayson Waller
picking up victories.

1652
01:24:09,544 --> 01:24:13,314
He is someone who will talk about it,
and talk about it, and talk about it.

1653
01:24:13,381 --> 01:24:15,316
This is what we were talking
about for next week.

1654
01:24:15,383 --> 01:24:19,120
Expect the unexpected.
Will Cameron grimes find any friends?

1655
01:24:19,187 --> 01:24:21,389
He said, "I might not have many in NXT,

1656
01:24:21,456 --> 01:24:24,692
but that doesn't take away who I know
on raw and Smack Down."

1657
01:24:24,759 --> 01:24:25,660
[Book] Beautiful.

1658
01:24:25,727 --> 01:24:27,295
[Vic] Waller connects.

1659
01:24:27,362 --> 01:24:28,430
[Book] I'm sitting here watching
this Waller.

1660
01:24:28,496 --> 01:24:30,131
[Vic] Into the cover. Will be it enough?

1661
01:24:30,198 --> 01:24:31,766
Dragunov continues to fight.

1662
01:24:31,833 --> 01:24:32,767
[Book] Like I said, I don't like this guy.

1663
01:24:32,834 --> 01:24:34,869
I'm going to tell you right now,
you look at this move right here.

1664
01:24:34,936 --> 01:24:36,604
[Vic] You liked it so much,
watch it again.

1665
01:24:36,671 --> 01:24:37,505
Take a look.

1666
01:24:37,572 --> 01:24:39,407
[Book] The timing, the timing, the timing.

1667
01:24:39,474 --> 01:24:42,143
Rolling through the legs,
dropping the elbow to the heart.

1668
01:24:42,410 --> 01:24:44,379
Right now, Dragunov is feeling it.

1669
01:24:44,712 --> 01:24:46,881
[Crowd claps]

1670
01:24:47,348 --> 01:24:49,784
[Vic] Right to the back.

1671
01:24:49,851 --> 01:24:51,886
Waller raining down on the back
of Dragunov.

1672
01:24:51,953 --> 01:24:53,121
Shoots the half.

1673
01:24:53,188 --> 01:24:55,356
Into the cover, hooks the leg,
and a kick out.

1674
01:24:55,423 --> 01:24:58,326
Dragunov looked to be out.
Maybe was out for half second.

1675
01:24:58,393 --> 01:25:00,428
[Book] Those elbows
to the back of the neck,

1676
01:25:00,495 --> 01:25:02,163
I don't know if those are legal or not.

1677
01:25:02,230 --> 01:25:06,034
The referee may have to have the
wherewithal to understanding

1678
01:25:06,101 --> 01:25:09,871
and the know how to reprimand Waller
for doing something like that.

1679
01:25:09,938 --> 01:25:12,006
[Vic] Referee's distraction,
and now locking in.

1680
01:25:12,073 --> 01:25:14,609
Trying to wear down
a sleeper of some sort.

1681
01:25:15,210 --> 01:25:18,313
Dragunov starting to fade.
What about this strategy for Waller?

1682
01:25:18,379 --> 01:25:21,382
[Book] It's a great strategy.
Leaning on your opponent.

1683
01:25:21,449 --> 01:25:23,084
They always say,

1684
01:25:23,151 --> 01:25:26,788
keep the opponent real close to the body
and that's what Waller is doing right now.

1685
01:25:26,855 --> 01:25:28,756
[Crowd chants]

1686
01:25:28,823 --> 01:25:32,393
[Vic] Those elbows connected
right to the jaw of Waller.

1687
01:25:34,963 --> 01:25:36,598
Ilja Dragunov continuing now.

1688
01:25:36,664 --> 01:25:38,933
We talk about the persevere
to push forward.

1689
01:25:39,134 --> 01:25:42,370
Wasn't expecting him to compete tonight,
and then just dropped Waller.

1690
01:25:42,437 --> 01:25:43,304
[Book] Beautiful.

1691
01:25:47,175 --> 01:25:48,977
[Book] Waller thought he was in a safe
place right there,

1692
01:25:49,444 --> 01:25:51,112
but Dragunov little switch through

1693
01:25:51,579 --> 01:25:56,017
the ropes right there put him right back
in position to land that big clothesline.

1694
01:25:56,084 --> 01:25:57,118
[Vic] Book, I think about--

1695
01:25:57,185 --> 01:26:01,122
this has been a hard-hitting night
here on NXT.

1696
01:26:01,189 --> 01:26:04,759
You go all the way back to how we kicked
things off with Bron Breakker,

1697
01:26:04,826 --> 01:26:05,793
who, by the way,

1698
01:26:05,860 --> 01:26:10,431
still has a score to settle
with Dragunov from earlier tonight,

1699
01:26:10,598 --> 01:26:11,733
which led to this match up.

1700
01:26:11,799 --> 01:26:13,968
As now going into another
submission is Waller.

1701
01:26:14,035 --> 01:26:16,838
Waller also with the grapevine,
the body scissors.

1702
01:26:17,071 --> 01:26:19,407
Drawing the air out of Dragunov.

1703
01:26:19,474 --> 01:26:20,341
[Book] His forearm under the neck.

1704
01:26:20,408 --> 01:26:22,210
Right now, Dragunov trying
to block it right now.

1705
01:26:22,277 --> 01:26:23,211
He's got a hand in between.

1706
01:26:23,278 --> 01:26:26,281
He's going to have to move and he's going
to have to move quick.

1707
01:26:26,347 --> 01:26:27,949
[Vic] Was able to create separation
for a moment.

1708
01:26:28,016 --> 01:26:29,050
Waller had to relinquish.

1709
01:26:29,117 --> 01:26:31,452
They went right back in it,
and it is cinched in deep,

1710
01:26:31,519 --> 01:26:35,223
and a nice counter from Dragunov.
As I was saying, it was Dragunov

1711
01:26:35,290 --> 01:26:38,393
who was leaving earlier tonight,
Waller who questioned Dragunov's

1712
01:26:38,726 --> 01:26:42,430
antics earlier tonight found
himself in this match up.

1713
01:26:42,497 --> 01:26:47,035
Now, Grayson Waller has turned
the complexion right around.

1714
01:26:50,605 --> 01:26:53,841
Waller we've seen in the--

1715
01:27:00,848 --> 01:27:02,650
what the hell?

1716
01:27:03,818 --> 01:27:05,653
The wheel's spinning.

1717
01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:08,423
Waller though gets caught and dropped.

1718
01:27:08,990 --> 01:27:10,925
What did we just witness, Book?
[Book] I don't know, man.

1719
01:27:10,992 --> 01:27:13,261
I don't know what just happened there.

1720
01:27:13,928 --> 01:27:18,233
[Vic] Focusing back in on this main event.
Dragunov has turned this match up around.

1721
01:27:18,299 --> 01:27:24,372
Hitting a couple of suplexes in a row,
and now just overpowering Grayson Waller.

1722
01:27:27,242 --> 01:27:29,377
[Book] Window just opened for Dragunov.

1723
01:27:29,444 --> 01:27:31,579
He needs to take
advantage of it right now.

1724
01:27:31,646 --> 01:27:36,484
[Vic] The window opened because
of the wheel that we saw.

1725
01:27:37,285 --> 01:27:39,787
You spin the wheel you don't make
the deal tonight.

1726
01:27:40,021 --> 01:27:42,290
Torpedo running through Waller.

1727
01:27:44,359 --> 01:27:45,460
[bell rings]

1728
01:27:45,526 --> 01:27:47,462
[Ilja Dragunov's music plays]

1729
01:27:47,528 --> 01:27:50,932
[announcer] Here is your winner,
Llja Dragunov.

1730
01:27:51,366 --> 01:27:55,003
[Vic] If this happens at Halloween havoc

1731
01:27:55,069 --> 01:28:02,010
we could be looking into the eyes
of the new NXT champion.

1732
01:28:06,447 --> 01:28:10,952
The look in the eyes of almost
disbelief of Grayson Waller

1733
01:28:11,719 --> 01:28:15,189
who looks up again to see the wheel.

1734
01:28:15,723 --> 01:28:17,158
We got to focus in on the match up.

1735
01:28:17,358 --> 01:28:19,160
[Book] You look at Grayson Waller
right here.

1736
01:28:19,327 --> 01:28:20,361
Big move over the top rope.

1737
01:28:20,862 --> 01:28:25,066
Looked like he was in position right
there full control and this would happen.

1738
01:28:25,433 --> 01:28:28,069
[Vic] All of a sudden,
Waller is a little freaked out.

1739
01:28:28,503 --> 01:28:30,938
The wheel somehow started spinning.

1740
01:28:31,105 --> 01:28:34,676
Grayson Waller just taken off
his game for half second.

1741
01:28:34,742 --> 01:28:36,911
Book, as you know in your hall
of fame career,

1742
01:28:36,978 --> 01:28:39,580
that half second made
the big difference in the match.

1743
01:28:39,647 --> 01:28:41,215
[Book] As I said,
just that window slid open for a second,

1744
01:28:41,282 --> 01:28:44,686
and Dragunov went right through
and landed that headbutt.

1745
01:28:44,752 --> 01:28:48,890
Next thing you know, one, two, three.
You're looking up at the lights, son.

1746
01:28:49,524 --> 01:28:52,960
[Vic] For ilja Dragunov,
a night we didn't think he would compete.

1747
01:28:53,127 --> 01:28:55,563
Just his second match back
and he's focusing--

1748
01:28:55,630 --> 01:29:00,668
[Book] Oh, shucky ducky, quack, quack.

1749
01:29:07,408 --> 01:29:12,246
[Bron Breakker's music plays]

1750
01:29:12,313 --> 01:29:15,116
[Vic] Bron Breakker dropping Dragunov,

1751
01:29:16,150 --> 01:29:19,120
and there's no question about
what we just witnessed.

1752
01:29:19,187 --> 01:29:22,190
Bron Breakker had Dragunov in his sights.

1753
01:29:22,590 --> 01:29:27,995
Breakker sending a message to Dragunov,
as there's JD Mcdonagh

1754
01:29:28,930 --> 01:29:33,101
looking on with everything
playing into his hand.

1755
01:29:33,167 --> 01:29:34,969
What's going to happen between these three

1756
01:29:35,036 --> 01:29:39,741
when the gold is on the line at Halloween
havoc a week from Saturday?
