[audience chanting] NXT!

10
00:00:30,997 --> 00:00:35,735
[Vic] The NXT universe is fired up
as the road to WrestleMania has begun,

11
00:00:35,802 --> 00:00:39,706
but we make our final stop
before Saturday's Vengeance Day.

12
00:00:39,773 --> 00:00:41,341
Huge implications tonight.

13
00:00:41,408 --> 00:00:43,443
Welcome to NXT.

14
00:00:43,510 --> 00:00:45,211

["All Rise" music playing]

16
00:00:48,815 --> 00:00:53,019
[Vic] Well, Book, get ready
for a slugfest to kick us off.

17
00:00:53,086 --> 00:00:56,089
-[audience cheering]
-[Booker laughs]

18

19
00:00:57,891 --> 00:01:00,427
[Alicia] The following contest
is a tag team match

20
00:01:00,493 --> 00:01:01,795
scheduled for one fall.

21
00:01:01,861 --> 00:01:05,298
Introducing first,
accompanied by Ivy Nile,

22
00:01:05,365 --> 00:01:10,136
Julius and Brutus, The Creed Brothers.

23
00:01:10,203 --> 00:01:13,873
[Vic] We're coming to you tonight
with limited commercial interruptions,

24
00:01:13,940 --> 00:01:17,343
and I like to pull the curtain back
for a second, Book.

25
00:01:17,410 --> 00:01:20,647
This is a showdown
you've been waiting for.

26
00:01:20,713 --> 00:01:25,085
[Booker] I don't wanna get too crunk
too soon, Vic, but I'm gonna tell you,

27
00:01:25,151 --> 00:01:29,255
this one right here,
it's gonna be a monster, baby.

28
00:01:29,322 --> 00:01:34,561
Creed Brothers, Indus Sher,
a match of mammoth and epic proportion.

29
00:01:34,627 --> 00:01:36,196
Oh, my God, man.

30
00:01:36,262 --> 00:01:37,864
[Vic] Are you gonna get crunk?
What's in that energy drink?

31
00:01:37,931 --> 00:01:39,032
[Booker laughs]

32
00:01:39,098 --> 00:01:41,134
["Tiranga" music playing]

33
00:01:41,201 --> 00:01:46,239
[Alicia] And their opponents,
accompanied by Jinder Mahal,

34
00:01:46,306 --> 00:01:48,208
Indus Sher.

35
00:01:48,274 --> 00:01:49,976
[Vic] Book, look around right now.

36
00:01:50,043 --> 00:01:52,145
NXT universe is on their feet,

37
00:01:52,212 --> 00:01:54,981
because they know
the human demolition derby

38
00:01:55,048 --> 00:01:58,818
that we're kicking off tonight with,
and it's hard to fathom,

39
00:01:58,885 --> 00:02:03,022
hasn't Indus Sher become more dangerous
with Jinder Mahal now?

40
00:02:03,089 --> 00:02:05,191
-[Booker] Let me tell you something, Vic.
-[Vic] How does that happen?

41
00:02:05,258 --> 00:02:08,061
[Booker] You're sitting at home
and you're watching the news

42
00:02:08,127 --> 00:02:10,763
feeling you're like
a second-class citizen,

43
00:02:10,830 --> 00:02:12,031
getting no respect,

44
00:02:12,098 --> 00:02:16,169
sometimes you just got to go out there
and take it, man.

45
00:02:16,236 --> 00:02:18,838
Oh, I mean, this is gonna be good.

46
00:02:18,905 --> 00:02:21,374
[Vic] Yeah. You said something,
feeling no respect.

47
00:02:21,441 --> 00:02:24,444
I wanna come back to that here
in just a few moments,

48
00:02:24,511 --> 00:02:26,813
because I don't necessarily know
if we see eye-to-eye

49
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,583
with the way Indus Sher has been thinking,
even Jinder Mahal's mindset.

50
00:02:30,650 --> 00:02:33,419
But I wanna focus
on The Creed Brothers for a moment.

51
00:02:33,486 --> 00:02:35,388
Are the Creeds back on the right path?

52
00:02:35,455 --> 00:02:36,289
-[bell ringing]
-[Booker] No.

53
00:02:36,356 --> 00:02:39,225
The Creed Brothers
is definitely are on the right path,

54
00:02:39,292 --> 00:02:41,895
-because of one person, Ivy Nile…
-[audience chanting] Creed!

55
00:02:41,961 --> 00:02:44,864
…who's the glue
that's keeping this team together, Vic.

56
00:02:44,931 --> 00:02:49,002
The one that's keeping the oar
in the harbor.

57
00:02:49,068 --> 00:02:51,137
That's Ivy Nile.

58
00:02:51,204 --> 00:02:55,375
[Vic] We see Veer and Julius Creed
are kicking things off here tonight.

59
00:02:55,441 --> 00:02:58,411
You saw for a moment,
Julius's saying, "My shoulder's okay.

60
00:02:58,478 --> 00:03:01,314
-There's no excuses."
-[Booker] Look at the quickness of Veer.

61
00:03:01,381 --> 00:03:06,019
I couldn't wait for this match right here,
because we got four heavyweights

62
00:03:06,085 --> 00:03:07,954
in the middle of this squared circle,

63
00:03:08,021 --> 00:03:11,724
and it's gonna break down
sooner or later, Vic. Trust me.

64
00:03:11,791 --> 00:03:15,528
[Vic] You talk about heavy hitters,
usually, superstars this size,

65
00:03:15,595 --> 00:03:17,764
that are this strong,
don't move this quick.

66
00:03:17,830 --> 00:03:20,066
And look at this,
we said it would be a slugfest.

67
00:03:20,133 --> 00:03:22,802
[Booker] I told you, Vic.
It's gonna break down in a minute.

68
00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:25,038
I'll tell you, Vic, The Creed Brothers
are gonna have to rely on the pace

69
00:03:25,104 --> 00:03:28,007
in order to come out
on top in this matchup.

70
00:03:28,074 --> 00:03:29,475
Oh, he got caught right there.

71
00:03:29,542 --> 00:03:32,145
[Vic] Julius tried to get away,
get around, got caught,

72
00:03:32,212 --> 00:03:35,381
but certainly was able to find
his way out, made the tag.

73
00:03:35,448 --> 00:03:38,218
[Booker] You see that?
Julius trying to run for higher ground,

74
00:03:38,284 --> 00:03:42,188
let big bro come in here
and handle this heavy lifting.

75
00:03:42,255 --> 00:03:45,525
[Vic] Now Brutus along with Sanga now,
but when we talk about tag team action,

76
00:03:45,592 --> 00:03:47,093
how about what's to come
in the main event.

77
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,496
The winning team advances
to Saturday's Vengeance Day,

78
00:03:50,563 --> 00:03:51,864
has a golden opportunity.

79
00:03:51,931 --> 00:03:54,767
Which team will join
the NXT Tag Team Title match?

80
00:03:54,834 --> 00:03:57,203
And we will take an inside look

81
00:03:57,270 --> 00:04:00,607
at the steel cage, main event on Saturday

82
00:04:00,673 --> 00:04:03,943
for the NXT Championship
coming up later on tonight.

83
00:04:04,010 --> 00:04:09,048
I wanna refocus in on this Tag Team match,
because Brutus is a game-changer,

84
00:04:09,115 --> 00:04:11,050
but he's not getting
knocked around by Sanga.

85
00:04:11,117 --> 00:04:12,919
He's also not doing any knocking around.

86
00:04:12,986 --> 00:04:15,221
[Booker] Let me tell you something,
Sanga, you look at this guy,

87
00:04:15,288 --> 00:04:18,291
once upon a time
this guy was a teddy bear.

88
00:04:18,358 --> 00:04:22,729
Now he's a damn grizzly bear,
looking to get some meat.

89
00:04:22,795 --> 00:04:24,197
-Whoo!
-[Booker] Oh, I love it.

90
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:27,533
[Vic] You talked
about feeling disrespected, Book,

91
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,569
when it came to Indus Sher.

92
00:04:29,636 --> 00:04:32,272
Where did this animosity come from
with Indus Sher,

93
00:04:32,338 --> 00:04:35,074
-specifically towards The Creed Brothers?
-[Booker] Let me tell you something,

94
00:04:35,141 --> 00:04:39,712
when you see the Creed Brothers
getting opportunity after opportunity

95
00:04:39,779 --> 00:04:43,449
and you get nothing,
and you know you're one of the best

96
00:04:43,516 --> 00:04:48,254
like Veer and Sanga, like Indus Sher,
yes, you want your piece of the action.

97
00:04:48,321 --> 00:04:51,524
You want your champagne wishes.
You want your caviar dream.

98
00:04:51,591 --> 00:04:54,627
I'm trying not to get too emotional here.
I'm trying. I'm trying.

99
00:04:54,694 --> 00:04:57,830
[Vic] You were in the Royal Rumble
on Saturday, you're all fired up.

100
00:04:57,897 --> 00:05:00,500
You wanna get back in there right now.
I can see it in our eyes.

101
00:05:00,566 --> 00:05:03,102
Wit The Creed Brothers
trying to work together as a team,

102
00:05:03,169 --> 00:05:06,105
-and it took two to take down Veer.
-[Booker] Oh, wow.

103
00:05:06,172 --> 00:05:07,507
[Booker] You're gonna have to do that.

104
00:05:07,573 --> 00:05:11,311
You're gonna have to work
as a tag team to get a win tonight.

105
00:05:11,377 --> 00:05:16,949
One thing about The Creed Brothers,
the big advantage, they are brothers.

106
00:05:17,016 --> 00:05:18,718
Brothers to the bone, and you know…

107
00:05:18,785 --> 00:05:20,586
-…what do they say about blood?
-[Vic] Cover, a hook of the leg.

108
00:05:20,653 --> 00:05:23,222
[Booker] Blood is thicker than water.

109
00:05:23,289 --> 00:05:26,225
[Vic] There is Julius Creed
taking his eye off the ball.

110
00:05:26,292 --> 00:05:30,229
Of course, former WWE champion,
Jinder Mahal, here on the outside.

111
00:05:30,296 --> 00:05:33,299
That momentary distraction
allowing a tag to be made.

112
00:05:33,366 --> 00:05:38,004
Julius didn't see it,
but he felt it, Sanga is now legal.

113
00:05:38,071 --> 00:05:42,075
[Booker] Talking about the influence
of Jinder Mahal, the blueprint,

114
00:05:42,141 --> 00:05:45,311
you know, the guy
that's been to the mountain top.

115
00:05:45,378 --> 00:05:47,714
You can take it from somebody else,

116
00:05:47,780 --> 00:05:51,484
former WWE champion,
the Modern Day Maharaja.

117
00:05:51,551 --> 00:05:54,120
[Vic] Take another look.
You can almost feel this. Bam.

118
00:05:54,187 --> 00:05:57,357
[Booker] Oh, yes. Oh, yes.

119
00:05:57,890 --> 00:05:59,459
[Vic] There you see right now,

120
00:05:59,525 --> 00:06:03,830
Sanga is taking a couple of liberties,
so to speak, with Julius.

121
00:06:03,896 --> 00:06:06,199
I don't know if you see
on the monitor right now,

122
00:06:06,265 --> 00:06:10,370
Ivy Nile is almost like a caged tiger,
walking back and forth.

123
00:06:10,436 --> 00:06:13,139
She has not taken her eyes off
of Jinder Mahal.

124
00:06:13,206 --> 00:06:16,242
[Booker] Ivy knows the importance
of a matchup like this.

125
00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:21,314
The Creed Brothers need this match
more than anything, and for me,

126
00:06:21,381 --> 00:06:25,852
and from my outpoint,
this is the toughest test

127
00:06:25,918 --> 00:06:28,421
that The Creed Brothers has had to date.

128
00:06:28,488 --> 00:06:30,456
[Vic] Indus Sher wanted the Creeds
at 100%.

129
00:06:30,523 --> 00:06:32,024
-[Booker] Oh, wow.
-[Vic] They certainly have them

130
00:06:32,091 --> 00:06:33,426
at that in this moment.

131
00:06:33,493 --> 00:06:36,963
And right now,
just pure destruction on the mind,

132
00:06:37,029 --> 00:06:41,234
as Julius tries to fight back,
but look at relentless is Veer.

133
00:06:41,300 --> 00:06:45,037
-[Booker] Twin demons of destruction…
-[audience groans]

134
00:06:45,104 --> 00:06:47,039
-…that's what I call Sanga and Veer.
-[Vic] Nice takedown by Creed.

135
00:06:47,106 --> 00:06:49,542
But Creed just got ran over by Sanga.

136
00:06:49,609 --> 00:06:53,246
With every right hand, every knee,
you hear the NXT universe

137
00:06:53,312 --> 00:06:55,648
almost living and breathing
with The Creed Brothers.

138
00:06:55,715 --> 00:06:58,851
[Booker] Look at the power from Sanga.
Sanga has turned it on.

139
00:06:58,918 --> 00:07:01,788
This guy has turned into,
really, a monster.

140
00:07:01,854 --> 00:07:04,424
And tonight, Vic, Sanga…

141
00:07:04,490 --> 00:07:08,294
Oh, my God,
is taking all of his frustrations out

142
00:07:08,361 --> 00:07:09,962
-[Vic] Tag.
-…on Julius Creed.

143
00:07:10,596 --> 00:07:13,633
[Vic] Now this was the previous play.
Tag was made.

144
00:07:13,699 --> 00:07:16,636
Nice takedown by Julius
who's doing everything he can.

145
00:07:16,702 --> 00:07:19,572
He takes down, again, Sanga,
and in comes Veer.

146
00:07:19,639 --> 00:07:21,441
[Booker] Like I said, Vic, like I said,

147
00:07:21,507 --> 00:07:25,478
The Creed Brothers are gonna have
to stay with their base, their wrestling,

148
00:07:25,545 --> 00:07:26,946
because this team right here,

149
00:07:27,013 --> 00:07:31,150
they're not thinking about anything
but, mayhem, destruction.

150
00:07:31,217 --> 00:07:33,419
Oh, yes, and I love it.

151
00:07:33,486 --> 00:07:37,623
[Vic] Pure destruction always left
in the path of Indus Sher, who, this was…

152
00:07:37,690 --> 00:07:41,093
We talked about earlier,
believe they're victims here in NXT.

153
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,062
I don't get it? What about Valentina Feroz

154
00:07:43,129 --> 00:07:46,165
who Sanga just turned away,
and told her to go away?

155
00:07:46,232 --> 00:07:49,469
[Booker] You know what, sometimes you need
to do what you got to do to get focused.

156
00:07:49,535 --> 00:07:50,770
To know exactly what you need.

157
00:07:50,837 --> 00:07:53,105
Like I say,
sometimes people wanna wait for it.

158
00:07:53,172 --> 00:07:56,242
Sanga and Veer, tonight,
they're looking to go out, Vic.

159
00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:58,544
They're looking to take it here tonight.

160
00:07:58,611 --> 00:08:00,479
[audience chanting] Creed!

161
00:08:00,546 --> 00:08:03,149
[Vic] NXT universe is trying
to rally Julius Creed.

162
00:08:03,216 --> 00:08:05,218
You can see the determination in his eyes.

163
00:08:05,284 --> 00:08:09,021
You might see a little bit of worry
in the eyes of Brutus on the outside,

164
00:08:09,088 --> 00:08:12,225
knowing his brother right now,
in dire straits, is Julius,

165
00:08:12,291 --> 00:08:15,061
trying to get back up,
taken right back down,

166
00:08:15,127 --> 00:08:17,864
and he's in the grasps
of someone like Sanga.

167
00:08:17,930 --> 00:08:21,701
[Booker] Sanga is ripping Julius
right now like a rag doll.

168
00:08:21,767 --> 00:08:24,403
And the strength difference. Oh.

169
00:08:24,470 --> 00:08:26,506
[audience chanting] Let's go, Sanga!
Let's go, Julius!

170
00:08:26,572 --> 00:08:28,374
[Booker] Oh, the people love this.

171
00:08:28,441 --> 00:08:31,444
[Vic] We said
the NXT universe was fired up.

172
00:08:31,510 --> 00:08:35,314
You take a look at the action tonight,
what is gonna happen Saturday, though,

173
00:08:35,381 --> 00:08:38,618
-at Vengeance Day in Charlotte?
-[Booker laughs]

174
00:08:38,684 --> 00:08:43,155
[Booker] Oh, my God. I can't wait
to get to Charlotte, North Cackalacky.

175
00:08:43,222 --> 00:08:46,526
Ric Flair, make sure
you got a spot for me, dawg.

176
00:08:46,592 --> 00:08:49,295
[Vic] Well, right now there's a spot
for Julius Creed,

177
00:08:49,362 --> 00:08:51,964
and he's not gonna like it.
Sanga planting Creed.

178
00:08:52,031 --> 00:08:54,800
Into the cover, hook of the leg,
and not enough

179
00:08:54,867 --> 00:08:57,069
as Julius continuing to fight.

180
00:08:57,136 --> 00:09:00,006
And, look, The Creed Brothers,
they're never gonna have an excuse,

181
00:09:00,072 --> 00:09:03,509
Book, that's not how they were raised.
That's not what their father…

182
00:09:04,610 --> 00:09:05,545
put into them.

183
00:09:05,611 --> 00:09:08,114
He told them to always fight,
never back down,

184
00:09:08,180 --> 00:09:11,651
don't make an excuse,
always push through, try to persevere.

185
00:09:11,717 --> 00:09:13,319
We're gonna see the Creeds at their best,

186
00:09:13,386 --> 00:09:16,555
and that's why Julius Creed
is not staying down in this matchup.

187
00:09:16,622 --> 00:09:19,892
[Booker] I've watched The Creed Brothers,
they're fighters, they're not gonna quit,

188
00:09:19,959 --> 00:09:22,862
but tonight they're in the middle
of this squared circle

189
00:09:22,929 --> 00:09:25,464
with something different, Vic,
look at that right there.

190
00:09:25,531 --> 00:09:28,601
Right now, Sanga just leaning on Julius,

191
00:09:28,668 --> 00:09:31,103
just putting
all of his weight down on Julius.

192
00:09:31,170 --> 00:09:33,239
Trust me, it is a difference

193
00:09:33,306 --> 00:09:36,309
when you're in there
with a heavyweight like this man.

194
00:09:36,375 --> 00:09:40,112
[Vic] I just looked up
and saw Jinder Mahal for just a moment.

195
00:09:40,179 --> 00:09:42,748
You take a look
at the former WWE Champion,

196
00:09:42,815 --> 00:09:46,719
what is Mahal trying to establish
in Veer and Sanga?

197
00:09:46,786 --> 00:09:51,757
[Booker] Stay focused.
Just instilling that expert tutelage,

198
00:09:51,824 --> 00:09:54,226
knowing what it takes
to make it to the top.

199
00:09:54,293 --> 00:09:58,064
Not just make it, but staying at the top.
That's what Veer and Sanga want.

200
00:09:58,130 --> 00:10:01,867
[Vic] Oh, Sanga and Veer right now.
It's Veer who gets knocked down.

201
00:10:01,934 --> 00:10:05,438
Look at Brutus Creed.
Brutus right now, it's smash mode.

202
00:10:05,504 --> 00:10:06,672
[Booker laughs]

203
00:10:06,739 --> 00:10:10,409
-[Booker] Here comes Brutus.
-[Vic] Look at the strength.

204
00:10:10,476 --> 00:10:12,311
-[screams]
-[Vic] Brutus Creed,

205
00:10:12,378 --> 00:10:16,382
who never lost
in his amateur career in the NCAA,

206
00:10:16,449 --> 00:10:19,452
showing you some… [chuckles]

207
00:10:19,518 --> 00:10:21,887
He came out here
just to pop Sanga in the face.

208
00:10:21,954 --> 00:10:22,989
[Booker] Creed right now…

209
00:10:23,055 --> 00:10:25,291
-[Vic] Look at the German suplex.
-[Booker] …he's fresh as a daisy.

210
00:10:25,358 --> 00:10:28,694
And right now he just needs
to keep this momentum going

211
00:10:28,761 --> 00:10:30,563
to get a victory over this team.

212
00:10:30,630 --> 00:10:34,333
[grunting]

213
00:10:35,167 --> 00:10:37,637
[Vic] Talk about being relentless.
Turning it right back around.

214
00:10:37,703 --> 00:10:40,706
Brutus sat, watched his brother
throughout this matchup

215
00:10:40,773 --> 00:10:43,743
-finally getting himself a piece. Nice.
-[audience groans]

216
00:10:45,277 --> 00:10:48,748
-Julius, standing shooting star.
-[audience groans]

217
00:10:48,814 --> 00:10:51,183
Cover, count. Oh.

218
00:10:51,250 --> 00:10:52,451
-[Booker] I'll tell you right there…
-[Vic giggles]

219
00:10:52,518 --> 00:10:55,054
[Booker] …you see Julius
is a little fatigued right now.

220
00:10:55,121 --> 00:10:58,991
I don't like that tag by Brutus
getting Julius back in at this time.

221
00:10:59,058 --> 00:11:01,293
I don't think he was ready
for something like that, Vic.

222
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,429
[Vic]
Well, the former NXT Tag Team champions

223
00:11:03,496 --> 00:11:06,332
are right now taking it to Indus Sher.

224
00:11:08,134 --> 00:11:10,703
What's on the mind of Julius Creed?

225
00:11:10,770 --> 00:11:13,339
He might be fatigued,
he's trying to hoist up Veer.

226
00:11:13,406 --> 00:11:14,874
[Booker] You feel me?
You see what I'm saying?

227
00:11:14,940 --> 00:11:17,910
Right there, that just shows me
he's still trying to muscle this big man.

228
00:11:17,977 --> 00:11:20,746
[Vic] Look at the core strength.
He did it, though, Book.

229
00:11:20,813 --> 00:11:22,581
-Powerbomb. Cover.
-One, two!

230
00:11:22,648 --> 00:11:24,650
[Vic] Whoa!

231
00:11:24,717 --> 00:11:27,286
[Booker] Let me tell you
how much that took out of Julius

232
00:11:27,353 --> 00:11:29,622
to pull something off like that.

233
00:11:29,689 --> 00:11:32,591
[Vic] Look at the strength.
Would not quit.

234
00:11:32,658 --> 00:11:38,164
We talked about what his father instilled
in him to never stop pushing through.

235
00:11:38,230 --> 00:11:40,933
[audience chanting] NXT!

236
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,369
[Vic] Again, the NXT universe
on their feet one more time.

237
00:11:43,436 --> 00:11:46,739
I don't know where Julius Creed
is getting this from.

238
00:11:46,806 --> 00:11:50,743
[Booker] Man, Julius just
dropped a bomb right there.

239
00:11:50,810 --> 00:11:52,144
[Vic] Mahal.

240
00:11:52,211 --> 00:11:55,347

[Vic] Well, Mahal,
finally cool heads prevailing.

-[Vic] Oh!

247
00:12:16,135 --> 00:12:17,770
[Vic] Brutus back in the ring.

248
00:12:17,837 --> 00:12:21,907
This matchup still continuing.
Tag was made.

249
00:12:21,974 --> 00:12:25,377
Brutus is screaming for help,
but there's no one to help Julius.

250
00:12:26,278 --> 00:12:30,683
Julius goes up, planted.
Huge chokeslam by Sanga.

251
00:12:31,217 --> 00:12:34,420
-Into the cover, and… Oh, come on.
-[bell ringing]

Here are your winners, Indus Sher.

00:12:41,827 --> 00:12:44,330
[Vic] Where's respect in this?
Is there honor in this, Book?

256
00:12:44,396 --> 00:12:49,468
[Booker] Look, Vic.
Ivy just got took out of the game.

257
00:12:49,969 --> 00:12:53,272
-[Vic] Take another… I mean, listen.
-[Booker] Oh, wow.

-[Vic] Bam!

260
00:12:57,510 --> 00:13:00,780
[Vic] Julius turning right around.
You know what Julius was thinking about.

261
00:13:00,846 --> 00:13:02,414
-He was thinking about Ivy Nile.
-[groans]

262
00:13:02,481 --> 00:13:06,018
-In the end, went for the ride from Sanga,
-[audience] One!

-Indus Sher would not be denied.
-[audience] Two, three!

[Vic] Here tonight, as Jinder Mahal,

265
00:13:13,859 --> 00:13:19,064
Sanga, and Veer stand tall on NXT.

267
00:13:27,740 --> 00:13:32,278
Okay, okey dokey.
Are you talking to me or something?

268
00:13:32,344 --> 00:13:35,281
Yeah, okay.
I was always a big fan of A-Kid.

269
00:13:35,347 --> 00:13:37,850
He had some excellent tussles in NXT UK.

270
00:13:37,917 --> 00:13:40,452
He's the best, isn't he?

271
00:13:40,519 --> 00:13:42,321
I wonder what happened to him.

272
00:13:42,388 --> 00:13:44,824
You know, I don't know, I don't know.
I couldn't say.

273
00:13:44,890 --> 00:13:46,992
But fantastic competitor he was.

274
00:13:51,397 --> 00:13:54,166
You remind me of A-Kid.

275
00:13:54,233 --> 00:13:56,535
I'm not sure what is.
I can't quite put my finger on it.

276
00:13:56,602 --> 00:14:00,339
You know, I get that quite a lot.
I think it's because of my eyes.

277
00:14:01,807 --> 00:14:08,414
Tyler, as much as I enjoy watching you
and A-Kid, how would you feel me and you

278
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,283
creating a masterpiece
and tear the house down tonight?

279
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:14,853
Okay. Okay.
That sounds like a marvelous idea.

280
00:14:16,722 --> 00:14:21,160
I was just walking around
and friendly competition makes me sick.

281
00:14:21,227 --> 00:14:26,398
All the "I respect your work a lot.
I respect your work to infinity."

282
00:14:26,465 --> 00:14:30,302
You know, when I was in the UK,
I learned that all you limeys are soft

283
00:14:30,369 --> 00:14:33,606
and the European style of wrestling
is overrated.

284
00:14:33,672 --> 00:14:38,744
As for A-Kid, if you see him, personally,
tell him from me, he's hot garbage.

285
00:14:38,811 --> 00:14:42,848
Wow. Well, if I do see him,
I'll make sure he knows.

286
00:14:42,915 --> 00:14:44,350

-Yeah.

[Vic] I'd say in the spirit
of friendly competition

00:15:02,334 --> 00:15:05,838

297

[Vic] Zoey Stark, Book,

298
00:15:23,322 --> 00:15:25,624
in the Women's Royal Rumble match.

299
00:15:25,691 --> 00:15:31,664
Some have said she was the NXT's MVP
Saturday in the Alamodome.

300
00:15:31,730 --> 00:15:36,969
[Booker] Ever since that switch
was flipped with Zoey,

301
00:15:37,036 --> 00:15:38,938
she's been a game-changer, man.

302
00:15:39,004 --> 00:15:41,507
She's been laser-focused,
and I'm gonna tell you,

303
00:15:41,573 --> 00:15:45,711
Zoey is thinking about one thing, Vic,
and that's becoming champion.

304

[Vic] Indi Hartwell had her own
experience in San Antonio,

310
00:16:01,427 --> 00:16:05,464
and earlier today talked about
her experience on Saturday night.

Speaking of the weekend,
I hope you guys can all experience

312
00:16:09,768 --> 00:16:11,070
the Royal Rumble like I did.

313
00:16:11,136 --> 00:16:15,140
I mean, being out there in front of over
50,000 people, there's just nothing--

00:16:15,207 --> 00:16:17,943
-Move it. Get out of my way.
-Oh! Look, who it is.

It's the woman who attacked
Nikkita Lyons, and girls,

she was also in the Royal Rumble,
but you probably don't remember--

317
00:16:23,549 --> 00:16:25,884
First of all, if I attacked Nikkita Lyons,

318
00:16:25,951 --> 00:16:27,486
all of you here would know that,

319
00:16:27,553 --> 00:16:30,389
because I would have the guts
to say that I actually did that.

320
00:16:30,456 --> 00:16:33,058
Also, why are you holding court
about the Royal Rumble?

321
00:16:33,125 --> 00:16:34,793
-Were you even in it?
-Mm-hmm.

322
00:16:34,860 --> 00:16:36,328
Because I was in there for half an hour,

323
00:16:36,395 --> 00:16:39,098
so I must've blinked
and you were out of there.

324
00:16:39,164 --> 00:16:42,768
Oh, wait. [laughs]
That's right. It's coming back to me.

325
00:16:42,835 --> 00:16:45,871
You were making that ridiculous point
to the WrestleMania sign.

326
00:16:45,938 --> 00:16:47,506
A place that you will never go.

327
00:16:47,573 --> 00:16:50,876
-Actually, it was a thumbs up.
-Oh, a thumbs up. Ladies, a thumbs up.

328
00:16:50,943 --> 00:16:53,112
You could stick that thumb
right up your ass.

329
00:16:53,178 --> 00:16:55,581
Actually, I thought
the thumbs-up moment was sick.

330
00:16:55,647 --> 00:16:57,349
And if I remember correctly,

331
00:16:57,416 --> 00:17:00,719
Indi beat you the last time you guys
had a one-on-one match. I'm just saying.

332
00:17:00,786 --> 00:17:04,189
Sol, why are you always
in everybody else's business?

333
00:17:04,256 --> 00:17:07,559
Look, stay out of mine
if you know what's good for you.

334
00:17:07,626 --> 00:17:11,864
Indi, I'm taking you on tonight.
Let's see how long you really last, huh?

335
00:17:12,664 --> 00:17:16,135
We'll see. Good job remembering that.

336
00:17:17,202 --> 00:17:18,604
-[bell ringing]
-[Vic] Sol Ruca was right.

337
00:17:18,670 --> 00:17:21,740
Hartwell does own a victory
over Zoey Stark.

338
00:17:21,807 --> 00:17:25,511
[Booker] You're talking about old stuff,
Vic. You're talking about past tense.

339
00:17:25,577 --> 00:17:29,982
We ain't thinking about that.
What have you done for me lately?

340
00:17:30,049 --> 00:17:31,984
That's what this business is all about.

341
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:35,454
[Vic] Oh, Zoey Stark brought this match
on herself as we just witnessed.

342
00:17:35,521 --> 00:17:38,924
And, look, no one can argue,
for both these superstars,

343
00:17:38,991 --> 00:17:41,827
they opened some eyes with the time
they spend in the Royal Rumble.

344
00:17:41,894 --> 00:17:44,196
[Booker] I'm gonna tell you right now,
Indi Hartwell,

345
00:17:44,263 --> 00:17:47,032
I've been saying
she's looking for that moment.

346
00:17:47,099 --> 00:17:49,535
I'm gonna tell you, the Rumble
was definitely her time to shine,

347
00:17:49,601 --> 00:17:54,740
but Zoey Stark came in
right after that number one seed,

348
00:17:54,807 --> 00:17:58,210
let's just say that,
Rhea Ripley, and she did work.

349
00:17:58,277 --> 00:18:01,547
[Vic] Yeah. Of course, Rhea Ripley won
the women's Royal Rumble match.

350
00:18:01,613 --> 00:18:03,782
A former NXT Women's Champion
in her own right.

351
00:18:03,849 --> 00:18:07,119
[Booker] Almost said number one stunner,
and that's my man, JD McDonagh.

352
00:18:07,186 --> 00:18:08,120
I didn't wanna step over there.

353
00:18:08,187 --> 00:18:10,422
-[Vic] At least you caught yourself.
-[Booker] Yeah, I didn't wanna do that.

354
00:18:10,489 --> 00:18:11,957
[Vic] And then… Whoa!

355
00:18:12,024 --> 00:18:14,593
As Zoey Stark just got caught there
by Indi Hartwell,

356
00:18:14,660 --> 00:18:15,661
we talked about Rhea Ripley.

357
00:18:15,727 --> 00:18:18,363
She challenged
the SmackDown Women's Champion,

358
00:18:18,430 --> 00:18:21,967
Charlotte Flair, at WrestleMania,
and that's if Charlotte can get

359
00:18:22,034 --> 00:18:24,670
by Sonya Deville Friday night on SmackDown

360
00:18:24,736 --> 00:18:25,938
when her women's titles on the line.

361
00:18:26,004 --> 00:18:29,141
[Booker] I don't think Sonya
is gonna be that big of a problem.

362
00:18:29,208 --> 00:18:32,544
I'm gonna tell you right now,
Rhea Ripley she is definitely…

363
00:18:32,611 --> 00:18:36,081
-[Vic] Into the cover goes Hartwell.
-[Booker] …the future of this business.

364
00:18:36,148 --> 00:18:37,883
That's the rep.

365
00:18:37,950 --> 00:18:40,319
[Vic] Well, you take a look
at both these superstars right here,

366
00:18:40,385 --> 00:18:42,120
Indi Hartwell has come in with momentum.

367
00:18:42,187 --> 00:18:44,823
-[Booker] Check the shot out here, Vic.
-[Vic] Take a look.

368
00:18:44,890 --> 00:18:47,159
-[Vic] Boom. Right to the side.
-[Booker] Wow!

369
00:18:47,226 --> 00:18:50,762
Hartwell's not messing around
here tonight, and look.

370
00:18:51,463 --> 00:18:53,332
How good must it have felt
for Indi Hartwell?

371
00:18:53,398 --> 00:18:57,035
A, to enter the Royal Rumble, and then
have that moment looking at the sign.

372
00:18:57,102 --> 00:18:58,203
Big WrestleMania sign.

373
00:18:58,270 --> 00:19:02,007
[Booker] That right there, I'll tell you
you can't explain something like that.

374
00:19:02,074 --> 00:19:04,309
Indi Hartwell, like I said,
had a moment that…

375
00:19:04,376 --> 00:19:06,512
-[Vic] Cover and another near-fall.
-[Booker] …she's gonna remember

376
00:19:06,578 --> 00:19:08,313
for the rest of her life.
Trust me on that.

377
00:19:08,380 --> 00:19:11,750
[Vic] Take now as Zoey Stark, bam,
able to answer right back.

378
00:19:11,817 --> 00:19:15,754
This has been nothing short
of a hard-hitting NXT again

379
00:19:15,821 --> 00:19:18,423
with limited commercials here tonight.

380
00:19:18,490 --> 00:19:19,825
[Booker] Did you hear Zoey Stark?

381
00:19:19,892 --> 00:19:22,394
She said she was in there
for 30 minutes, man.

382
00:19:22,461 --> 00:19:25,564
Over 30 minutes.
That let her know that she can take it.

383
00:19:25,631 --> 00:19:29,635
That let her know
she belongs with the A-team.

384
00:19:29,701 --> 00:19:32,070
I'm loving that, Vic.

385
00:19:32,137 --> 00:19:33,172
[Vic] Are you saying that the Royal Rumble

386
00:19:33,238 --> 00:19:35,941
is possibly
a for a lack of a better phrase,

387
00:19:36,008 --> 00:19:39,378
-a launching point for Zoey Stark?
-[Booker] It was a breakout moment.

388
00:19:39,444 --> 00:19:44,449
Zoey Stark, she didn't just go
into the Royal Rumble to participate.

389
00:19:44,516 --> 00:19:47,653
She wanted to go in there
and she planned on winning that thing.

390
00:19:47,719 --> 00:19:49,121
I like that attitude.

391
00:19:49,187 --> 00:19:51,757
[Vic] No love lost
between these two superstars,

392
00:19:51,823 --> 00:19:53,792
and also we do have to mention this.

393
00:19:53,859 --> 00:19:58,664
Indi Hartwell did call out
Zoey Stark for attacking possibly

394
00:19:58,730 --> 00:20:01,400
Nikkita Lyons last week.

395
00:20:01,466 --> 00:20:03,535
-[Booker] You know what?
-[Vic] Everyone's a suspect here.

396
00:20:03,602 --> 00:20:06,004
[Booker] Zoey said something a second ago.

397
00:20:06,071 --> 00:20:11,510
You only should concern yourself
with business that concerns you, Vic.

398
00:20:11,577 --> 00:20:13,545
All right? Mind your business.

399
00:20:13,612 --> 00:20:15,080
[Vic] What are you yelling at me for?
I didn't say it.

400
00:20:15,147 --> 00:20:18,317
[Booker] I'm just saying.
That's the problem with this game today.

401
00:20:18,383 --> 00:20:21,787
People always wanna think
about what somebody else is doing.

402
00:20:21,853 --> 00:20:22,821
Think what you do.

403
00:20:22,888 --> 00:20:26,091
[Vic] Oh, Hartwell for the second time
went back to the well,

404
00:20:26,158 --> 00:20:28,427
and this time Stark was ready.

405
00:20:28,493 --> 00:20:34,499
Zoey Stark's now going up, going over,
and landing hard right on Hartwell.

406
00:20:34,566 --> 00:20:38,704
Into the cover, hook of the leg.
And another near-fall in this matchup.

407
00:20:38,770 --> 00:20:42,908
Zoey Stark, did you see the fact
that she was able to grapevine the leg.

408
00:20:42,975 --> 00:20:45,143
Was not gonna allow Hartwell
to get to that bottom rope,

409
00:20:45,210 --> 00:20:47,646
and now Stark just unloading.

410
00:20:47,713 --> 00:20:52,751
Take another look at the athleticism
by Zoey Stark going up and over.

411
00:20:52,818 --> 00:20:54,386
-Look, Zoey's made it perfectly clear.
-[thuds]

412
00:20:54,453 --> 00:20:59,858
Book, you talk about flipping that switch.
She's done having others hold her back.

413
00:20:59,925 --> 00:21:03,262
[Booker] You know, I look at Zoey
out there performing moves like that,

414
00:21:03,328 --> 00:21:07,699
balance, technique, grace,
as well as that attitude saying that,

415
00:21:07,766 --> 00:21:12,037
"Hey, I'm willing to step on some toes
and step on some toes

416
00:21:12,104 --> 00:21:13,939
and keep on walking."

417
00:21:14,006 --> 00:21:16,942
That's what you got to do, Vic,
to make it to the top.

418
00:21:17,009 --> 00:21:19,544
[Vic] There you see
the NXT universe no doubt

419
00:21:19,611 --> 00:21:21,647
who they are behind in this matchup.

420
00:21:21,713 --> 00:21:24,816
It is Indi Hartwell.
Hartwell who felt that moment,

421
00:21:24,883 --> 00:21:28,353
felt the love from the WWE Universe
in San Antonio.

422
00:21:28,420 --> 00:21:32,891
Trying to continue to ride that
wave of momentum here tonight,

423
00:21:32,958 --> 00:21:35,060
but she's running into Zoey Stark

424
00:21:35,127 --> 00:21:38,797
who, as we've already talked about,
has a lot of momentum coming into tonight

425
00:21:38,864 --> 00:21:41,433
after as we said
possibly stealing the show

426
00:21:41,500 --> 00:21:43,568
for this brand at the Royal Rumble.

427
00:21:43,635 --> 00:21:44,469
[Booker] Lemme tell you something,

428
00:21:44,536 --> 00:21:48,073
this game is all about checks
and championship.

429
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:51,376
Right now who's got that title?
Roxanne Perez.

430
00:21:51,443 --> 00:21:55,347
Who wants that title?
Every woman in that division.

431
00:21:55,414 --> 00:21:58,617
You got to go out there
and you got to fight your way to the top

432
00:21:58,684 --> 00:22:01,153
just like these ladies right now.
I'm loving this, Vic.

433
00:22:01,219 --> 00:22:05,157
[Vic] Well, these two slugging it out,
and what a right hand by Hartwell,

434
00:22:05,223 --> 00:22:06,825
who has championship dreams.

435
00:22:06,892 --> 00:22:10,495
When we talk about the champion,
we will hear from Roxanne Perez

436
00:22:10,562 --> 00:22:15,434
and her two challengers, Gigi Dolin,
Jacy Jayne of Toxic Attraction

437
00:22:15,500 --> 00:22:18,637
ahead of their Triple Threat match
Saturday at Vengeance Day,

438
00:22:18,704 --> 00:22:23,175
but Hartwell
almost with another big, big victory.

439
00:22:23,241 --> 00:22:26,812
[Booker] Here she comes
but wasting a little bit of too much time

440
00:22:26,878 --> 00:22:28,480
right here for me, Vic.

441
00:22:28,547 --> 00:22:30,082
That time is precious.

442
00:22:30,148 --> 00:22:34,753
It's worth it's weight in gold.
There it is right there. Oh, wow.

443
00:22:34,820 --> 00:22:37,456
[Vic] Roundhouse kick from Stark
rocking Hartwell.

444
00:22:37,522 --> 00:22:40,859
Hartwell now going for the ride,
German suplex.

445
00:22:40,926 --> 00:22:44,663
And Stark's now realizing
Hartwell's injured, Hartwell's down.

446
00:22:44,730 --> 00:22:46,965
Hook of the leg and another near-fall.

447
00:22:47,032 --> 00:22:50,535
Hartwell continuing
to fight in this matchup.

448
00:22:50,602 --> 00:22:54,806
[Booker] See that landing right there,
on the back of the base of the head there.

449
00:22:54,873 --> 00:22:57,409
I'm gonna tell you right now,
Indi Hartwell, she's feeling it.

450
00:22:57,476 --> 00:22:59,311
She's gonna have to suck it up, Vic.

451
00:22:59,378 --> 00:23:01,346
[Vic] Stark was looking for that
half and half. Nice counter.

452
00:23:01,413 --> 00:23:04,383
Now getting right back up,
getting scooped up, going right around,

453
00:23:04,449 --> 00:23:06,752
landing on her feet.
Nice counter from Stark.

454
00:23:06,818 --> 00:23:07,686
[audience cheering]

455
00:23:07,753 --> 00:23:10,555
Stark with Hartwell hoisted,
nice counter in her own right.

456
00:23:10,622 --> 00:23:12,691
-[audience cheering]
-[grunts]

457
00:23:12,758 --> 00:23:15,193
[Vic] A lot of battling back and forth
between these two women.

458
00:23:15,260 --> 00:23:18,597
It's all because of a confrontation
earlier today.

459
00:23:18,663 --> 00:23:19,631
-[Vic] As… Ooh!
-[Booker] Oh!

460
00:23:19,698 --> 00:23:22,100
[Vic] Oh, crash and burn for Hartwell.

461
00:23:22,167 --> 00:23:25,237
[Booker] I'm gonna tell you right now,
Zoey saw that coming.

462
00:23:25,303 --> 00:23:27,406
Almost like she's scouted
that move right there.

463
00:23:27,472 --> 00:23:30,342
[Vic] She saw it coming,
but Hartwell didn't see the knee

464
00:23:30,408 --> 00:23:31,676
-under the jaw.
-[Booker] Goodnight.

465
00:23:31,743 --> 00:23:34,446
-[Vic] And you can say that again, Book.
-One, two, three! [inaudible]

466
00:23:34,513 --> 00:23:35,414
[bell ringing]

467
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,382
["Cut Above the Rest" music playing]

468
00:23:37,449 --> 00:23:40,385
-[Alicia] Here is your winner, Zoey Stark.
-[audience booing]

469
00:23:40,452 --> 00:23:46,224
[Booker] Oh, Zoey, you're talking about
bringing the wrecking ball.

470
00:23:46,291 --> 00:23:50,962
I'm talking about somebody
that wants more. That's Zoey.

471
00:23:51,029 --> 00:23:53,732
[Vic] You could talk all this possibly
the turning point in the matchup,

472
00:23:53,799 --> 00:23:58,236
Hartwell thought she was well and good,
and then a nasty landing

473
00:23:58,303 --> 00:24:02,374
and that really changed
the course of this matchup for Hartwell.

474
00:24:02,441 --> 00:24:03,275
Bam!

475
00:24:03,341 --> 00:24:05,277
Zoey's… Oh, wait! Wait a minute.

476
00:24:05,343 --> 00:24:07,746
[audience booing]

477
00:24:07,813 --> 00:24:10,782
[Vic] What's the meaning of this?
You already won the match, Zoey.

478
00:24:10,849 --> 00:24:13,452
And there's Sol Ruca. Ruca!

479
00:24:13,518 --> 00:24:17,155
[Booker] She's gone berserk.
This is a seven-course meal, dawg.

480
00:24:18,990 --> 00:24:21,593
[Vic] Oh, Sol Ruca thinks Stark

in front of me in the form of Dijak.

Yes, he's back in NXT
and he's claiming to be serving justice,

make a damn bit of difference.

but understand,
that's much easier said than done,

by accident.

just fighting me, dawg.

Because I guess my ears
aren't working properly,

you're the biggest and you're the baddest.

You claim that you are the biggest
and the baddest in NXT,

614
00:33:10,621 --> 00:33:14,625
but Von is saying that he is,
so basically you're calling him a liar.

what you're trying to do. Shut your mouth.

loud and clear about being overlooked.

So if Von happens to beat Dijak
in a match tonight,

Von will no longer be overlooked.

at as a championship contender.

to drop Lee

he gets dropped by Von Wagner.

00:35:21,953 --> 00:35:24,989
inside hook of the leg
and a kick out by Von Wagner.

652
00:35:25,056 --> 00:35:28,092
But we are being joined right now
by the North American Champion,

653
00:35:28,159 --> 00:35:29,127
the one the only Wes Lee.

654
00:35:29,193 --> 00:35:31,996
Hey, I got to say
nice job getting justice served

655
00:35:32,063 --> 00:35:33,131
here tonight between those two.

656
00:35:33,197 --> 00:35:35,166
[Lee] It only seems right
we have to find out

657
00:35:35,233 --> 00:35:38,269
who's the biggest and baddest superstar
in NXT.

658
00:35:38,336 --> 00:35:39,770
[Vic] And I'm ready to find out who it is.

659
00:35:39,837 --> 00:35:41,772
You're not lying,
but I want you to finish your thought

660
00:35:41,839 --> 00:35:44,242
about how important Saturday is to you
personally

661
00:35:44,308 --> 00:35:47,478
when you go one on one with Dijak
for your North American title.

662
00:35:47,545 --> 00:35:51,382
[Lee] With it being NXT's first stand-out.

663
00:35:51,449 --> 00:35:53,084
[Booker] Oh, wow!

664
00:35:53,151 --> 00:35:54,418
-[Lee] It's special.
-[Booker] I'm sorry.

665
00:35:54,485 --> 00:35:57,154
[Lee] Just it's my first time being out…

666
00:35:57,221 --> 00:35:59,357
-[Vic] Oh.
-[Booker] Good God.

667
00:35:59,423 --> 00:36:01,993
-[Lee] Outside of Orlando.
-[Booker] Wow.

668
00:36:02,059 --> 00:36:06,330
[Booker] Look, look, look, you talk
a whole bunch of nonsense right now.

669
00:36:06,397 --> 00:36:08,733
Lee, Lee, you see
what's in the ring right now?

670
00:36:08,799 --> 00:36:10,568
We got two giants right now.

671
00:36:10,635 --> 00:36:14,605
[Vic] I mean, boom… If Von Wagner,
like you said, wins this matchup,

672
00:36:14,672 --> 00:36:19,677
that could be you starting next Tuesday
if you're successful Saturday.

673
00:36:19,744 --> 00:36:22,580
-[Lee] When I'm successful Saturday.
-[Vic] And I--

674
00:36:22,647 --> 00:36:28,753
Like I said, at all times, any challenger,
this championship will be defended

675
00:36:28,819 --> 00:36:31,389
against anyone who feels like
they deserve the opportunity.

676
00:36:31,455 --> 00:36:32,823
[Booker] You know I admire you, bro.

677
00:36:32,890 --> 00:36:37,295
But do you believe in what you're saying
about the people?

678
00:36:37,361 --> 00:36:39,864
Let me tell you something,
when you lose that championship,

679
00:36:39,931 --> 00:36:44,735
listen, it's a famous quote,
nobody bobs a beaten champion.

680
00:36:44,802 --> 00:36:46,837
That could be you on Saturday, man.

681
00:36:46,904 --> 00:36:50,608
You need to think about
a, number one, yourself.

682
00:36:50,675 --> 00:36:52,944
[Lee] Dawg, Book, come on.

683
00:36:53,010 --> 00:36:56,614
You have to understand the connection
with the people like you have it.

684
00:36:56,681 --> 00:36:58,783
You felt it
when you came in the Royal Rumble.

685
00:36:58,849 --> 00:37:01,352
[Booker] Don't try to use
reverse psychology on me.

686
00:37:01,419 --> 00:37:03,754
Don't try that. Don't try that.
I'm talking about you.

687
00:37:03,821 --> 00:37:06,023
I'm talking about holding onto
that North American Championship.

688
00:37:06,090 --> 00:37:08,826
I'm talking about having to go against
one of these two giants

689
00:37:08,893 --> 00:37:12,396
-[Booker] like a Wagner, like a Dijak.
-[Vic] Into the cover. A near-fall.

690
00:37:12,463 --> 00:37:16,267
Mr. Stone out here
almost came out of his Steven Seagal suit

691
00:37:16,334 --> 00:37:18,369
-watching this matchup.
-[audience chanting]

692
00:37:18,436 --> 00:37:20,671
[Vic] He's beside himself.

693
00:37:20,738 --> 00:37:25,776
Who's the biggest, who's the baddest?
Right now, bang, it's Von Wagner.

694
00:37:25,843 --> 00:37:28,579
[Booker] Von Wagner's making
his own breaks here tonight

695
00:37:28,646 --> 00:37:30,948
at the expense of Dijak.

696
00:37:31,015 --> 00:37:32,750
[Vic] Champ, you look on at this matchup,

697
00:37:32,817 --> 00:37:36,187
this is because of you
that these two are slugging it out.

698
00:37:36,254 --> 00:37:39,557
Is this because you're just offended
Dijak wanted you to hand over the title?

699
00:37:39,624 --> 00:37:43,194
[Lee] Uh, I am offended.
You should already understand that

700
00:37:43,261 --> 00:37:45,963
I am not someone
that's just gonna turn over easily

701
00:37:46,030 --> 00:37:47,632
-and hand over a championship.
-[Vic] Oh!

702
00:37:47,698 --> 00:37:50,601
[Vic] Just being turned over,
look at the upside-down.

703
00:37:50,668 --> 00:37:53,504
-[Vic] And a… Ooh!
-[Booker] Ooh…

704
00:37:53,571 --> 00:37:55,239
-[Vic] Justice is served.
-[Booker] …baby.

705
00:37:55,306 --> 00:37:58,342
[Vic] No, it wasn't.
How the hell did Wagner kick out?

706
00:37:58,409 --> 00:38:02,546
[Booker] Let me tell you something, Wes,
it was smart getting this man, Dijak,

707
00:38:02,613 --> 00:38:05,883
to get out here and put in some work
tonight before a big matchup.

708
00:38:05,950 --> 00:38:06,984
That was very smart.

709
00:38:07,051 --> 00:38:10,288
We're getting a chance to see
exactly what this big man

710
00:38:10,354 --> 00:38:12,423
is all about with a move like this.

711
00:38:12,490 --> 00:38:17,161
Oh, my God, that could be you.
That could be you, Lee.

712
00:38:18,262 --> 00:38:20,331
-[Vic] I mean, unreal.
-[Lee] It's just the same thing.

713
00:38:20,398 --> 00:38:21,966
I'm not gonna be held down
by things like that.

714
00:38:22,033 --> 00:38:28,005
[Vic] Unreal. You are looking right now
at two guys that are fighting it out,

715
00:38:28,072 --> 00:38:30,408
because you put them in this position,
well done again, as I must say,

716
00:38:30,474 --> 00:38:33,944
but for Dijak, he knows
you're looking on right now.

717
00:38:34,011 --> 00:38:38,249
Dijak knows that you're sitting front row
and you two are gonna hook up

718
00:38:38,316 --> 00:38:40,117
this Saturday night in Charlotte.

719
00:38:40,184 --> 00:38:42,086
[Booker] Would not wanna be
in your position, Wes Lee.

720
00:38:42,153 --> 00:38:43,921
-[Vic] As champ?
-[Booker] Sitting out here watching this.

721
00:38:43,988 --> 00:38:45,556
-[Vic] It's all good. Look.
-[Booker] That you can be

722
00:38:45,623 --> 00:38:47,191
going through this on Saturday.

723
00:38:47,258 --> 00:38:50,127
I'm talking about beaten,
bruised, battered, torn.

724
00:38:50,194 --> 00:38:53,597
-That's what can happen to you, man.
-[Vic] What is on Dijak's mind right now?

725
00:38:53,664 --> 00:38:57,401
-Because it certainly isn't Wes Lee.
-[grunting]

726
00:38:57,468 --> 00:38:58,569
-Trying to fight free.
-[grunting]

727
00:38:58,636 --> 00:38:59,837
[Vic] Look at Von Wagner go.

728
00:38:59,904 --> 00:39:01,806
-[Lee] They're fighting hard.
-[screams]

729
00:39:01,872 --> 00:39:03,674
[Lee] That's the kind of thing
that I like to see going for him.

730
00:39:03,741 --> 00:39:05,843
-[Vic] Oh, ooh!
-[thuds]

731
00:39:05,910 --> 00:39:09,513
-[Booker] Oh, my goodness. Von Wagner.
-[audience cheering]

732
00:39:09,580 --> 00:39:10,715
-[Vic] This is got to be it.
-One, two…

733
00:39:10,781 --> 00:39:12,183
[Booker] Von Wagner's looking
for a moment.

734
00:39:12,249 --> 00:39:16,253
Oh, that moment just slipped away.
Oh, my God, man.

735
00:39:17,588 --> 00:39:20,357
-What a matchup.
-[Lee] See, this is what I love.

736
00:39:20,424 --> 00:39:23,594
-I love the intensity they're giving us.
-[Vic] Well, Wagner right now…

737
00:39:23,661 --> 00:39:27,131
…looking for a high elbow slam.
Dijak into the counter.

738
00:39:27,198 --> 00:39:30,401
-[Booker] Got caught right there.
-[Vic] Oh, Dijak bending.

739
00:39:30,468 --> 00:39:33,738
[Vic] Trying to wear down,
trying to bring down Von Wagner.

740
00:39:33,804 --> 00:39:35,740
[audience chanting]

741
00:39:35,806 --> 00:39:39,543
NXT universe, some standing,
some chanting.

742
00:39:39,610 --> 00:39:43,314
This has been an impromptu matchup
that certainly…

743
00:39:43,381 --> 00:39:46,684
-[Booker] You said it, Vic.
-[inaudible]

744
00:39:46,751 --> 00:39:49,887
[Booker laughs]
I like that. I like that right there.

745
00:39:49,954 --> 00:39:54,258
He's just breaking Von Wagner
down right in front of you, Wes Lee.

746
00:39:54,325 --> 00:39:59,730
[Vic] Wagner. Dijak's looking at you,
and Wes Lee's saying, "Feast your eyes"

747
00:39:59,797 --> 00:40:03,134
on possibly what could happen
this Saturday

748
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,703
-in Charlotte at Vengeance Day.
-One, two, three!

749
00:40:05,770 --> 00:40:07,037
[bell ringing]

750
00:40:07,104 --> 00:40:09,607
[Booker] Ho, ho!
Look at the look in the eyes.

751
00:40:09,673 --> 00:40:12,476
[Alicia] Here is your winner, Dijak.

752
00:40:12,543 --> 00:40:14,412
[Booker] Look at the snarl.

753
00:40:14,478 --> 00:40:20,551
[Vic] Dijak has not taken his eyes,
until just now, off of you, Wes Lee.

754
00:40:20,618 --> 00:40:24,054
He is focused on that North American title

755
00:40:24,121 --> 00:40:28,526
that he has stated time and time again
he came back to NXT for.

756
00:40:28,592 --> 00:40:30,961
He's been close
at some points in his career

757
00:40:31,028 --> 00:40:33,497
to becoming a champion,
but in this moment,

758
00:40:33,564 --> 00:40:39,837
Von Wagner, Book, was very close
to an upset here tonight on NXT.

759
00:40:39,904 --> 00:40:44,809
But in the end, Dijak, bam,
able to overcome Von Wagner

760
00:40:44,875 --> 00:40:50,214
and prove that he was the biggest
and he is indeed the baddest in NXT.

761
00:40:50,281 --> 00:40:53,984
And now for Dijak,
he is focused on Wes Lee.

762
00:40:54,518 --> 00:40:59,457
Saturday night, there will be no ducking.
There certainly will be some diving.

763
00:40:59,523 --> 00:41:02,927
The North American title's
on the line in Charlotte.

764
00:41:02,993 --> 00:41:05,563
[audience cheering]

765
00:41:07,798 --> 00:41:09,600
Can't stand this Dijak.

766
00:41:09,667 --> 00:41:12,169
I bet he's gonna win the title
on Saturday too.

767
00:41:12,236 --> 00:41:13,737
-A receipt is…
-Whoa, whoa, whoa.

768
00:41:13,804 --> 00:41:17,942
Forget about Dijak right now.
Street Justice has no expiration date.

769
00:41:18,008 --> 00:41:19,643
-You know that.
-I do.

770
00:41:19,710 --> 00:41:22,246
Now about this big impact
you were gonna make.

771
00:41:22,313 --> 00:41:23,881
I got to take care of a few things.

772
00:41:24,381 --> 00:41:26,684
-What, the first thing or the second?
-Both.

773
00:41:26,750 --> 00:41:28,018
-Oh.
-Yeah.

774
00:41:28,085 --> 00:41:29,987
-Both?
-That's why I'm the underboss.

775
00:41:30,054 --> 00:41:33,724
-I took care of it, so next week it's on.
-Tremendous.

776
00:41:33,791 --> 00:41:35,893
Now let's go take care
of that other thing.

777
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,096
-That other thing? Got it.
-Forget about Dijak? Forget about him.

778
00:41:40,030 --> 00:41:45,202
Book, this has been a hard-hitting
Tuesday night of NXT action,

779
00:41:45,269 --> 00:41:46,937
you just heard from the Don
and the underboss,

780
00:41:47,004 --> 00:41:49,807
but we got to go back to something
that actually transpired

781
00:41:49,874 --> 00:41:53,077
last week to Nikkita Lyons
in the parking lot.

782
00:41:53,143 --> 00:41:57,414
[Vic] She has taken to social media,
she has provided us with an injury update.

783
00:41:57,481 --> 00:42:02,987
Surgery was successful for Nikkita Lyons
who is ready to get back to action

784
00:42:03,053 --> 00:42:04,488
as fast as possible.

785
00:42:04,555 --> 00:42:08,192
And right now our own McKenzie Mitchell
is standing by with a closer look

786
00:42:08,259 --> 00:42:11,562
at exactly what happened last week.

787
00:42:13,797 --> 00:42:17,835
Thanks, guys. Nikkita Lyons is facing
a long rehabilitation process,

788
00:42:17,902 --> 00:42:21,538
but so many questions surrounding
who attacked Nikkita in the parking lot.

789
00:42:21,605 --> 00:42:23,707
I wanna show back the footage
and slow things down

790
00:42:23,774 --> 00:42:25,976
so we can take a closer look
at the situation.

791
00:42:28,112 --> 00:42:31,549
If we track this, you can see
Valentina Feroz walking away.

792
00:42:31,615 --> 00:42:33,551
Danny Palmer, Ariana Grace,

793
00:42:33,617 --> 00:42:37,154
and performance center talent,
Alexis Lete, going into the building,

794
00:42:37,221 --> 00:42:41,325
and then here is an unidentified woman
driving away from the scene.

795
00:42:41,392 --> 00:42:44,395
Then you have Elektra Lopez
and newcomer, Lola Vice,

796
00:42:44,461 --> 00:42:46,330
who seemed to be closest to Nikkita.

797
00:42:46,397 --> 00:42:48,632
But as you can see,
they continue on their own path.

798
00:42:48,699 --> 00:42:52,069
If we freeze it right here,
you can see Tiffany Stratton,

799
00:42:52,136 --> 00:42:53,237
who doesn't look too concerned

800
00:42:53,304 --> 00:42:55,439
just going through her bag
on top of a car.

801
00:42:55,506 --> 00:42:57,107
But, of course, we have to wonder,

802
00:42:57,174 --> 00:43:00,778
did Tiffany use something
inside her bag to attack Nikkita?

803
00:43:00,844 --> 00:43:05,583
Then a little past Tiffany is Zoey Stark,
who many believe is a prime suspect

804
00:43:05,649 --> 00:43:08,752
given the history
between the former tag team partners.

805
00:43:08,819 --> 00:43:11,155
We also see Tatum Paxley and Lash Legend

806
00:43:11,221 --> 00:43:13,457
who are lurking
way in the back of the shot.

807
00:43:13,524 --> 00:43:15,225
Of course, could it be one of them?

808
00:43:15,292 --> 00:43:18,796
Then Indi Hartwell, and Lyra Valkyria
come to Nikkita's aid.

809
00:43:18,862 --> 00:43:21,799
But as we see Indi and Lyra
tending to Nikkita.

810
00:43:21,865 --> 00:43:25,469
Lastly, we see Wendy Choo
observing from inside a vehicle.

811
00:43:25,536 --> 00:43:26,971
Did Wendy see anything?

812
00:43:27,037 --> 00:43:29,373
How are you guys just walking past?
What the hell?

813
00:43:31,008 --> 00:43:34,812
Right now no one is taking credit
or claiming responsibility for the attack.

814
00:43:34,878 --> 00:43:37,181
If anyone comes forward,
I will keep you updated.

815
00:43:37,247 --> 00:43:39,016
Vic and Booker, back to you.

816
00:43:39,083 --> 00:43:41,452
[Vic] Well, thanks, McKenzie,
but right now we're gonna focus

817
00:43:41,518 --> 00:43:42,953
on Saturday night in Charlotte.

818
00:43:43,020 --> 00:43:47,925
Two superstars who despise each other
are gonna be locked inside a steel cage.

819
00:43:47,992 --> 00:43:51,061
We're gonna take a closer look
at our NXT title showdown

goes Hollywood once again.

The last time, Book,
you and Eddie Guerrero

824
00:44:07,111 --> 00:44:08,979
were looking for some answers.

Don't forget, NXT Stand & Deliver
takes place, WrestleMania Saturday.

828
00:44:20,224 --> 00:44:25,863
I will strike down upon thee
with great vengeance and furious anger

829
00:44:25,929 --> 00:44:30,567
to those who attempt to poison
and destroy my brothers.

830
00:44:30,634 --> 00:44:31,535
And you will…

831
00:44:31,602 --> 00:44:32,503
Serious question.

832
00:44:32,569 --> 00:44:35,406
Did you guys go get a royale with cheese
when you wrapped that up?

833
00:44:35,472 --> 00:44:37,074
Yes, we did. For people that don't know,

834
00:44:37,141 --> 00:44:39,643
he's talking about a quarter pounder
with cheese.

to WrestleMania

when we go Hollywood once again,

837
00:44:44,982 --> 00:44:47,518
but we're also making
our final stop here tonight

838
00:44:47,584 --> 00:44:51,522
on our road to Charlotte, North Carolina,
with Vengeance Day this Saturday,

839
00:44:51,588 --> 00:44:56,927

[Booker] We got to run this one back.
We got to do this again, Vic.

[Vic] At the end of the day,
here at New Year's Evil,

865
00:46:17,741 --> 00:46:21,745
it is Bron Breakker
who is the NXT champion.

-You don't stand a chance.

Bron Breakker is a wild dog.

872
00:46:39,129 --> 00:46:41,265
[Breakker] From the moment
I first stepped foot into NXT,

873
00:46:41,331 --> 00:46:42,933
my temper has got the best of me.

874
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,569
[Waller] He can't control his emotions.
He can't control his anger.

875
00:46:45,636 --> 00:46:48,372
[Booker] Bron Breakker's bad.
Bron Breakker is on fire.

876
00:46:48,438 --> 00:46:51,108
[Vic] And the locker room
can't even keep these two separated.

877
00:46:51,175 --> 00:46:53,410
No one has taken advantage of it
like I have.

is on the face of Grayson Waller.

My temper has led to my biggest victories

and my most crushing defeats.

883
00:47:08,892 --> 00:47:10,794
[Waller]
I don't have to beat Bron Breakker.

884
00:47:10,861 --> 00:47:13,530
Bron Breakker is gonna beat himself.

885
00:47:13,597 --> 00:47:17,034
[Breakker] I should learn to control it,
then it dawned on me.

886
00:47:18,101 --> 00:47:20,037
When that door closes…

887
00:47:20,904 --> 00:47:22,873

00:47:22,940 --> 00:47:25,342
I don't have to control it anymore.

I'm gonna beat Waller
within an inch of his life,

890
00:47:30,180 --> 00:47:31,848

you're gonna do.

You're like a textbook.
I've read it, and I've passed the test.

893
00:47:38,121 --> 00:47:39,389
[Breakker] Waller's pushed my last button.

894
00:47:39,456 --> 00:47:43,060
I don't wanna just beat you,
I wanna embarrass you. I wanna hurt you.

895
00:47:43,126 --> 00:47:46,964
[Breakker] He's gonna regret it
when I break him inside the steel.

[Waller] The last time that I was locked
in a steel cage.

-[Vic] Oh, from the top.
-[Wade] Your boy went viral.

Just think what am I gonna do now
when everything's on the line?

in NXT history.

[Vic] There will be no excuses.
There will be no doubt.

904
00:48:17,561 --> 00:48:19,830
We will have a decisive winner.

it has been on NXT.

And here's a superstar
who recently returned to this brand

914
00:48:56,667 --> 00:48:59,536
with a renewed focus
and certainly questioned a bit.

915
00:48:59,603 --> 00:49:01,705
That's a hard thing to do.
Let me tell you.

916
00:49:01,772 --> 00:49:04,074
[Booker] He's got a lot of athleticism.

917
00:49:04,141 --> 00:49:07,944
He's definitely studying the craft

918
00:49:08,011 --> 00:49:12,015
to see if he can take on this kid, Axiom.

919
00:49:12,082 --> 00:49:14,117
I call this kid "The Ace." He's good.

920

because when you look at Axiom…

-[Booker] They love him.

at the next breakout star here in NXT?

[Booker] This kid, Axiom,
he is a next-level superstar,

936
00:50:34,364 --> 00:50:35,966
but you got to ask the question.

937
00:50:36,033 --> 00:50:39,202

Why is he not there already?

-[Booker] He has all the ability,

has all the technique,
but I'm wondering myself.

940
00:50:44,408 --> 00:50:45,642
I'm wondering myself.

941
00:50:45,709 --> 00:50:49,613
This thing is about working
all year long trying to find that spot,

942
00:50:49,679 --> 00:50:51,181
trying to find that balance.

943
00:50:51,248 --> 00:50:54,618
[Vic] I've been wondering
something myself. Okay.

944
00:50:54,684 --> 00:50:58,221
Why do you frown upon
the phrase "Friendly competition?"

945
00:50:58,288 --> 00:51:00,690
Because this match
is about friendly competition.

946
00:51:00,757 --> 00:51:03,326
I'm not saying that.
They said it themselves, Book.

947
00:51:03,393 --> 00:51:08,365
[Booker] Can you imagine me
tweeting "Stone Cold" Steve Austin,

948
00:51:08,432 --> 00:51:12,335
"It was a pleasure to share
the ring with you." Come on, man.

949
00:51:12,402 --> 00:51:14,671
[Vic] Was that before or after
he beat you up in the supermarket?

950
00:51:14,738 --> 00:51:16,339
[Booker] …my point.
That's exactly my point.

951
00:51:16,406 --> 00:51:18,341
I'm jockeying for a position,

952
00:51:18,408 --> 00:51:22,512
that's these guys need to be thinking
about at every moment's notice, Vic.

953
00:51:22,579 --> 00:51:24,781
[Vic] Look, these guys aren't about
trying to get a pound of flesh.

954
00:51:24,848 --> 00:51:27,651
They're trying to prove
who's the better superstar

955
00:51:27,717 --> 00:51:30,153
and you don't need
to despise the other to do so.

956
00:51:30,220 --> 00:51:32,556
You can still be friendly with somebody.

957
00:51:32,622 --> 00:51:35,358
These two guys
have a great admiration for each other,

958
00:51:35,425 --> 00:51:38,295

Cover, shoulders down and a near-fall.
Everything Tyler Bate did in the NXT UK.

961
00:51:44,868 --> 00:51:47,637
[Booker] Let me tell you something, Vic.
This is an individual sport.

962
00:51:47,704 --> 00:51:50,607
You got to be very, very selfish
in this business

963
00:51:50,674 --> 00:51:53,210
if you wanna make it to a legendary stand.

964
00:51:53,276 --> 00:51:55,078
I'm talking about Hall of Fame stand.

965
00:51:55,145 --> 00:51:57,247
I'm talking about being
a championship player.

966
00:51:57,314 --> 00:52:00,517
You can't be thinking about going out
and playing games.

967
00:52:00,584 --> 00:52:03,787
This is a business.
You're not too far gone to know that.

One of these three teams
will find their way to Charlotte

970
00:52:09,626 --> 00:52:12,229
and how about this exclusive sit down
we're gonna have…

971
00:52:12,295 --> 00:52:14,164
-[Booker] Oh, yeah.
-[Vic] …with the NXT Women's Champion,

972
00:52:14,231 --> 00:52:15,298
Roxanne Perez,

973
00:52:15,365 --> 00:52:18,902
and both her opponents,
that being Toxic Attraction,

974
00:52:18,969 --> 00:52:22,639
and that huge Triple Threat match
Saturday night, in Charlotte.

975
00:52:22,706 --> 00:52:25,842
We are focused right now
on Tyler Bate and Axiom.

976
00:52:25,909 --> 00:52:28,078
-And these two right now tit for tat…
-[audience applauding]

977
00:52:28,145 --> 00:52:31,581
…but Tyler Bate's getting the better
of Axiom in this first-time-ever matchup--

978
00:52:31,648 --> 00:52:33,517
[Booker] Tyler Bate, he's showing me
something here tonight.

979
00:52:33,583 --> 00:52:36,520
One thing about this business
is you got to be able to work big.

980
00:52:36,586 --> 00:52:39,189
You got to be able
to work at a very, very high level.

981
00:52:39,256 --> 00:52:41,658
Right now,
Tyler Bate is showing me something.

982
00:52:41,725 --> 00:52:45,862
He's keeping to his base,
staying on the arm of Axiom,

983
00:52:45,929 --> 00:52:47,097
trying to wear him down.

984
00:52:47,163 --> 00:52:48,231
[Vic] Now, we've talked
about Vengeance Day.

985
00:52:48,298 --> 00:52:50,367
-[Booker] Oh, beautiful.
-[Vic] Coming up this Saturday,

986
00:52:50,433 --> 00:52:51,268
in Charlotte.

987
00:52:51,334 --> 00:52:54,437
Doesn't it eat at these two superstars
not being a part of Vengeance Day?

988
00:52:54,504 --> 00:52:56,573
Doesn't that make them
more hungry for the future?

989
00:52:56,640 --> 00:53:00,176
[Booker] Look, Vic.
Beautiful move there from Axiom.

990
00:53:00,243 --> 00:53:02,612
We're on the road to WrestleMania,
and everybody,

991
00:53:02,679 --> 00:53:06,750
all those guys on that stage,
they worked all year to get to that point.

992
00:53:06,816 --> 00:53:09,853
That's what these guys got to understand.
This is not a sprint.

993
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:12,556
-This is a marathon, man.
-[Vic] Not only WrestleMania,

994
00:53:12,622 --> 00:53:15,025
but also how about WrestleMania's Saturday

995
00:53:15,091 --> 00:53:17,060
NXT Stand & Deliver?

996
00:53:17,127 --> 00:53:19,696
You know both these superstars
want to be on that stage.

997
00:53:19,763 --> 00:53:21,431
-That's your point.
-[Booker] Exactly my point.

998
00:53:21,498 --> 00:53:22,899
That's exactly what I'm talking about.

999
00:53:22,966 --> 00:53:26,002
This is something you got to work on
as far as staying healthy,

1000
00:53:26,069 --> 00:53:28,171
trying to stay injury-free,
going out there

1001
00:53:28,238 --> 00:53:31,041
knowing exactly what it takes
to stay in the game,

1002
00:53:31,107 --> 00:53:33,944
avoiding all those landmines
like that shot right there from Axiom.

1003
00:53:34,010 --> 00:53:36,746
[Vic] Into the cover,
the Enzuigiri, a near-fall.

1004
00:53:36,813 --> 00:53:40,483
Axiom now able to change the complexion
of this matchup very quickly,

1005
00:53:40,550 --> 00:53:43,920
and now he is the one
who is in control of Tyler Bate

1006
00:53:43,987 --> 00:53:45,555
as you can feel right now,

1007
00:53:45,622 --> 00:53:48,425
the NXT universe is just trying
to keep pace

1008
00:53:48,491 --> 00:53:52,896
with his high-octane offense,
this high-octane style of Axiom and Bate,

1009
00:53:52,963 --> 00:53:54,531
who come to a little bit of a stalemate

1010
00:53:54,598 --> 00:53:57,801
and then, oh, nothing friendly
about that kick to the stomach.

1011
00:53:57,867 --> 00:54:02,272
-[Booker] Just a match right now.
-[Vic] Both over the top. Crash and burn.

1012
00:54:02,339 --> 00:54:04,708
[audience applauding and cheering]

1013
00:54:04,774 --> 00:54:09,312
[audience chanting] NXT!

1014
00:54:09,913 --> 00:54:11,748
[audience chanting] This is wrestling!

1015
00:54:11,815 --> 00:54:13,883
[Vic] Back live on NXT

1016
00:54:13,950 --> 00:54:16,586
and the NXT universe's showing
their appreciation

1017
00:54:16,653 --> 00:54:21,291
for both these superstars
as we saw throughout the commercial break,

1018
00:54:21,358 --> 00:54:25,695
both of them going back and forth,
and now, Axiom going for the ride.

1019
00:54:25,762 --> 00:54:29,766
[audience cheering]

1020
00:54:31,868 --> 00:54:34,037
[Vic] I don't know how the hell
Tyler Bate's still standing, Book.

1021
00:54:34,104 --> 00:54:35,038
[Booker laughs]

1022
00:54:35,105 --> 00:54:37,741
[Booker] Not a move that I recommend, Vic.
[chuckles]

1023
00:54:41,144 --> 00:54:44,547
-[Vic] Oh… And Bate starting to…
-[audience chattering]

1024
00:54:44,614 --> 00:54:45,582
[screams]

1025
00:54:45,649 --> 00:54:48,685
[Vic] And Bate's overcoming
and one more time.

1026
00:54:48,752 --> 00:54:51,321
-[Booker laughs]
-[audience cheering]

1027
00:54:51,388 --> 00:54:52,789
-[thuds]
-[Booker] Wow.

1028
00:54:52,856 --> 00:54:55,091
[Vic] Nasty landing into the cover,
hook of the leg,

1029
00:54:55,158 --> 00:54:56,793
and Axiom is able to kick out.

1030
00:54:56,860 --> 00:54:59,229
But let's go back to some of the action
that we witnessed

1031
00:54:59,296 --> 00:55:01,097
during the commercial break.

1032
00:55:01,164 --> 00:55:05,035
Look at Bate, bam, picture-perfect
under the jaw,

1033
00:55:05,101 --> 00:55:06,870
and then continued to push forward.

1034
00:55:06,936 --> 00:55:10,740
It was Axiom this time up and over.
Take a look at the offense.

1035
00:55:10,807 --> 00:55:11,708
Nice move.

1036
00:55:11,775 --> 00:55:13,209
Nice balance into the submission,

1037
00:55:13,276 --> 00:55:16,246
which brings me to this question to you,
Book.

1038
00:55:16,312 --> 00:55:19,749
What's more important,
the speed or the power of a superstar?

1039
00:55:19,816 --> 00:55:21,351
[Booker]
I look at both of these guys here.

1040
00:55:21,418 --> 00:55:24,554
They're evenly matched,
but if you wanna make it to the top, Vic,

1041
00:55:24,621 --> 00:55:26,523
you got to have a little bit of both.

1042
00:55:26,589 --> 00:55:28,758
I look at Rey Mysterio,
who's one of the little guys,

1043
00:55:28,825 --> 00:55:31,161
but got a whole lot of power
as well as speed.

1044
00:55:31,227 --> 00:55:36,766
I look at the history like a Yokozuna,
who was so explosive for a big man.

1045
00:55:36,833 --> 00:55:38,134
You got to have a little bit of both.

1046
00:55:38,201 --> 00:55:39,669
-[audience] Ow!
-[Booker] Oh, wow!

1047
00:55:39,736 --> 00:55:42,505
[Vic] Explosive right foot,
cover, and not enough

1048
00:55:42,572 --> 00:55:45,275
as Bate's able to kick out at two,

1049
00:55:45,341 --> 00:55:47,644
but Bate might not even realize
where he's at.

1050
00:55:47,711 --> 00:55:50,580
-Take a look and listen. Ooh!
-[audience] Ow!

1051
00:55:50,647 --> 00:55:51,881
[Vic] Right under the jaw.

1052
00:55:51,948 --> 00:55:55,452
I think that a friendly competition
is tossed out the window now.

1053
00:55:55,518 --> 00:55:58,221
[Booker] I'm looking at this matchup
right now and it's definitely broke down.

1054
00:55:58,288 --> 00:55:59,656
-[Vic] Whoa.
-[Booker] It's all about

1055
00:55:59,723 --> 00:56:01,491
who's gonna make that mistake first.

1056
00:56:01,558 --> 00:56:05,228
Right now, Tyler Bate may have
just made that ultimate,

1057
00:56:05,295 --> 00:56:07,430
that ultimate mistake here with Axiom.

1058
00:56:07,497 --> 00:56:09,733
[Vic] Hard-hitting Tuesday
continuing as, right now,

1059
00:56:09,799 --> 00:56:12,802
Tyler Bate's trying to get his hands
in between Axiom's,

1060
00:56:12,869 --> 00:56:15,572
trying to roll through,
and alleviate some of the pressure,

1061
00:56:15,638 --> 00:56:18,174
but Axiom, now, the submission specialist,
trying to dig in,

1062
00:56:18,241 --> 00:56:20,243
trying to clench,
trying to squeeze Tyler Bate--

1063
00:56:20,310 --> 00:56:22,512
[Booker] He's got that rear naked in deep.

1064
00:56:22,579 --> 00:56:25,081
He's got it locked in,
he's got it cinched.

1065
00:56:25,148 --> 00:56:27,884
Bate's gonna have to move,
and he's gonna have to do it quick.

1066
00:56:27,951 --> 00:56:30,720
[Vic] Bate's somehow getting back
to a vertical base, able to counter,

1067
00:56:30,787 --> 00:56:35,825
and now trying to create a little bit
of separation between he and Axiom,

1068
00:56:35,892 --> 00:56:39,329
but Axiom right now trying
to close that wall, able to roll through.

1069
00:56:39,395 --> 00:56:42,966
Bate's on his feet.
Axiom just caught with a right.

1070
00:56:43,032 --> 00:56:45,435
[Booker] You said it, Vic.
Tyler Bate was right there.

1071
00:56:45,502 --> 00:56:48,404
Tyler Bate was right there to counter
and then Axiom with a double…

1072
00:56:48,471 --> 00:56:50,640
-[Vic] Cover, cover, cover. Counter.
-[Booker] Shoulders down.

1073
00:56:50,707 --> 00:56:52,575
Oh, my God. Wow.

1074
00:56:52,642 --> 00:56:55,645
[audience applauding]

1075
00:56:57,046 --> 00:56:58,248
[Vic] Take another look.

1076
00:56:59,115 --> 00:57:02,452
Bam! That superkick,
and not to be outdone.

1077
00:57:03,019 --> 00:57:07,056
Axiom was able to connect
under the jaw quickly realized

1078
00:57:07,123 --> 00:57:09,392
that was his moment,
but Bate's turning things around

1079
00:57:09,459 --> 00:57:13,430
and that to steal something
from Corey Graves as close as it gets

1080
00:57:13,496 --> 00:57:15,832
-without ringing the bell.
-[Booker] You got to love it.

1081
00:57:15,899 --> 00:57:19,469
Single, double, triple counter
between these two young men.

1082
00:57:19,536 --> 00:57:23,206
I tell you, I tell you,
it don't get no better than this.

1083
00:57:23,273 --> 00:57:26,509
This is a main event
anywhere in the world, Vic.

1084
00:57:26,576 --> 00:57:27,811
[Vic] Swing and a miss by Axiom.

1085
00:57:27,877 --> 00:57:30,280
Axiom got caught this time,
looking for the super kick,

1086
00:57:30,346 --> 00:57:33,516
-little bump and bang under the jaw.
-[Booker laughs]

1087
00:57:33,583 --> 00:57:38,121
[Vic] Now, looking for a little boy
as well, turning Axiom inside out.

1088
00:57:38,188 --> 00:57:40,790
Bate's feeling it.
Looking for the finishing touches.

1089
00:57:40,857 --> 00:57:43,593
Can he hit the Tyler Driver '97?
Countered.

1090
00:57:43,660 --> 00:57:48,598
-Shoulders down, center of the ring.
-[Booker] Oh, look at the strength

1091
00:57:48,665 --> 00:57:50,834
by this young man, Tyler Bate.

1092
00:57:50,900 --> 00:57:52,502
[Vic] Axiom is trying to counter.

1093
00:57:53,369 --> 00:57:55,905
Getting the shoulders
back down one more time.

1094
00:57:55,972 --> 00:57:59,809
-Big Strong Boi indeed.
-[Booker] You know what?

1095
00:57:59,876 --> 00:58:02,078
-I got to give him that--
-[Vic] Counter again.

1096
00:58:02,145 --> 00:58:04,981
[Vic] Hurricanrana, shoulders down,
oh, another near-fall.

1097
00:58:05,048 --> 00:58:07,884
Bate, though, third time.
Will it be the charm?

1098
00:58:07,951 --> 00:58:12,088
-Tyler Driver '97.
-[Booker] That's got to be it.

1099
00:58:12,155 --> 00:58:13,122
[bell ringing]

1100
00:58:13,189 --> 00:58:15,124
["Born Animal" music playing]

1101
00:58:15,191 --> 00:58:18,728
[Alicia] Here is your winner, Tyler Bate.

1102
00:58:18,795 --> 00:58:20,630
[Booker] Vic, what did you call him,
the big what? The big…

1103
00:58:20,697 --> 00:58:24,033
-[Vic] Big Strong Boi.
-[Booker] That boy is big.

1104
00:58:24,100 --> 00:58:27,670
-[Vic] B-O-I, by the way. B-O-I.
-[Booker] I give him that.

1105
00:58:27,737 --> 00:58:29,906
Oh, my God. What a contest.

1106
00:58:30,707 --> 00:58:35,311
[Vic] Look at the NXT universe,
standing ovation

1107
00:58:35,378 --> 00:58:41,584
for both these superstars, but, Book,
what a match between these two.

1108
00:58:41,651 --> 00:58:44,387
You wanna call it
spirit of friendly competition or not?

1109
00:58:44,454 --> 00:58:48,291
We can run that back any day of the week,
Tuesday, Saturday,

1110
00:58:48,358 --> 00:58:49,893
Monday, Friday, it don't matter.

1111
00:58:49,959 --> 00:58:53,062
[Booker] I don't think Axiom wants to see
Tyler Bate no time soon.

1112
00:58:53,129 --> 00:58:55,832
This guy is good. He's good.
He's real good.

1113
00:58:55,899 --> 00:58:59,536
[Vic] And this was Tyler Bate,
The Big Strong Boi,

1114
00:58:59,602 --> 00:59:06,376
showcasing that power,
driving Axiom with that Tyler Driver '97.

1115
00:59:07,410 --> 00:59:13,416
[audience chanting] Tyler!

1116
00:59:13,483 --> 00:59:20,189
[audience chanting] Axiom!

1117
00:59:20,256 --> 00:59:24,027
[Vic] What a show of sportsmanship
between these two superstars…

1118
00:59:25,028 --> 00:59:27,630
Damon Kemp. What do you mean
what are you saying?

1119
00:59:27,697 --> 00:59:30,533
[Booker] I asked a question.
What was Axiom missing?

1120
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:33,336
This is it. This is it right here.
Being too friendly.

1121
00:59:35,972 --> 00:59:40,810
[Vic] Damon Kemp's talking a little trash
earlier tonight and then picked his spot.

1122
00:59:40,877 --> 00:59:42,312
[Booker laughs]

1123
00:59:42,378 --> 00:59:43,880
[Booker] Didn't I tell you?

1124
00:59:43,947 --> 00:59:46,182
You're gonna listen to me
one of these days, Vic.

1125
00:59:46,249 --> 00:59:47,383
[Vic] Pathetic.

1126
00:59:49,118 --> 00:59:53,089
Too easy, Bate. You can't wrestle.
You suck.

1127
00:59:53,156 --> 00:59:55,792
[Kemp] I'm here now. I'm here now.

1128
00:59:56,392 --> 00:59:57,827
[ominous music playing]

1129
00:59:57,894 --> 01:00:03,066
In my land,
Imbolc is the beginning of spring.

1130
01:00:03,132 --> 01:00:08,104
It is the time to exhale
all that is behind us

1131
01:00:08,171 --> 01:00:11,207
and to mark new beginnings.

1132
01:00:11,274 --> 01:00:18,114
Tonight, on the eve of Imbolc,
we purge the constraints of the past,

1133
01:00:18,181 --> 01:00:22,218
we purify the negative energy
surrounding us,

1134
01:00:22,285 --> 01:00:29,292
and we transfigure the uninitiated
into members of this house

1135
01:00:29,359 --> 01:00:32,662
that has always been a raging side of you.

1136
01:00:33,663 --> 01:00:37,767
You just needed a gentle nudge
from me to reveal it.

1137
01:00:37,834 --> 01:00:39,402
[giggles]

1138
01:00:40,003 --> 01:00:41,371
Shall we?

1139
01:00:43,473 --> 01:00:48,544
Join us as we let go
of our unbridled passions…

1140
01:00:48,611 --> 01:00:50,146
[fire blaring]

1141
01:00:50,213 --> 01:00:53,049
…as we shed our egos.

1142
01:00:53,116 --> 01:00:54,617
-[fire blaring]
-[giggles]

1143
01:00:54,684 --> 01:00:56,519
I don't need anyone.

1144
01:00:59,055 --> 01:01:02,425
As we relinquish our need for control.

1145
01:01:03,459 --> 01:01:05,862
[laughing ominously]

1146
01:01:05,928 --> 01:01:09,532
These emotions no longer serve us.

1147
01:01:09,599 --> 01:01:12,402
They no longer serve us.

1148
01:01:13,669 --> 01:01:15,238
[giggles]

1149
01:01:15,304 --> 01:01:19,442
-[water splashes]
-[giggles and gasps]

1150
01:01:19,509 --> 01:01:25,314
And with this ritual,
the initiation process has begun.

1151
01:01:25,381 --> 01:01:27,183
[chuckles]

1152
01:01:32,021 --> 01:01:35,491
[Vic] Well, the festival of spring
has spawned an unholy alliance.

1153
01:01:35,558 --> 01:01:38,127
But right now, we can see
the NXT Women's Champion,

1154
01:01:38,194 --> 01:01:41,731
Roxanne Perez, on the left,
Toxic Attraction on the right.

1155
01:01:41,798 --> 01:01:46,169
We will hear from champion
and challengers next here on NXT.

1156
01:01:50,139 --> 01:01:53,309
Carmelo Hayes, Trick Williams,
earlier tonight, we saw Apollo's vision

1157
01:01:53,376 --> 01:01:55,411
and, Trick,
you seem a little shook right now.

1158
01:01:55,478 --> 01:01:56,746
[chuckles]

1159
01:01:56,813 --> 01:01:59,849
I'm shaking like Booty meat
on a Friday night, McKenzie.

1160
01:01:59,916 --> 01:02:03,586
Not because I'm scared,
because it's cold in here.

1161
01:02:04,954 --> 01:02:07,657
Trick Willy can't lie,
this whole Apollo thing, I don't know.

1162
01:02:07,723 --> 01:02:09,625
I mean, shall I even go to Vengeance Day?

1163
01:02:09,692 --> 01:02:12,628
I mean, he looks. He sees in the future.
That's a Miss Cleo stuff, man.

1164
01:02:12,695 --> 01:02:14,063
Hey, Trick, man. Calm down, bro.

1165
01:02:14,130 --> 01:02:16,999
Of course, you're coming to Vengeance Day,
okay, because he can stay daydreaming,

1166
01:02:17,066 --> 01:02:20,002
-but you and I, we stay schemed. Okay?
-[laughs]

1167
01:02:20,069 --> 01:02:23,206
Well, Melo, Vengeance Day,
it's you and Apollo, 2 out of 3 falls.

1168
01:02:23,272 --> 01:02:24,774
How do you see this playing out?

1169
01:02:24,841 --> 01:02:28,111
McKenzie, you know me by now, you know
exactly how I see this playing out.

1170
01:02:28,177 --> 01:02:30,079
Apollo needs to realize
that this ain't Jackson,

1171
01:02:30,146 --> 01:02:32,782
this ain't Jordan,
knee shots I take don't ever jam.

1172
01:02:32,849 --> 01:02:34,417
I'm of a different caliber.

1173
01:02:34,484 --> 01:02:37,253
I took that dude from the sidelines
to the headlines.

1174
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:38,621
He could have a 40-inch vertical

1175
01:02:38,688 --> 01:02:41,457
and his fingertips still
couldn't touch the level that I'm on.

1176
01:02:42,158 --> 01:02:46,129
So, Apollo, you can be this
or you can be that,

1177
01:02:46,195 --> 01:02:50,032
but at Vengeance Day,
until you beat me 2 out of 3 falls,

1178
01:02:50,099 --> 01:02:52,034
you can never be him.

1179
01:02:52,101 --> 01:02:54,036
Because that's how it is.

1180
01:02:54,103 --> 01:02:56,639
And that is all it's gonna be.

1181
01:02:57,707 --> 01:02:58,941
[mellow music playing]

1182
01:02:59,008 --> 01:03:01,444
Well, thanks, McKenzie,
but right now, we wanna bring in

1183
01:03:01,511 --> 01:03:04,814
the challengers, Jacy Jayne,
Gigi Dolin of Toxic Attraction,

1184
01:03:04,881 --> 01:03:09,552
and, of course, the NXT Women's Champion,
that being Roxanne Perez.

1185
01:03:09,619 --> 01:03:13,389
Before Vengeance Day, Saturday,
Roxanne, you became the youngest woman

1186
01:03:13,456 --> 01:03:14,924
ever to compete in the Royal Rumble.

1187
01:03:14,991 --> 01:03:17,393
What was that like for you
in the Alamodome?

1188
01:03:17,460 --> 01:03:20,163
Oh, gosh. It was overwhelming.

1189
01:03:20,229 --> 01:03:21,097
[chuckles]

1190
01:03:21,731 --> 01:03:28,437
I'm just so grateful to hear my music
hit in front of over 50,000 people…

1191
01:03:29,071 --> 01:03:35,211
and to make that run that I've dreamed up
for so long, it was incredible.

1192
01:03:35,278 --> 01:03:38,981
Incredible? You mean incredibly pathetic.

1193
01:03:39,048 --> 01:03:41,951
Roxanne, congratulations.

1194
01:03:42,018 --> 01:03:46,522
You were in the Royal Rumble,
but you didn't win.

1195
01:03:46,589 --> 01:03:48,624
You're not going to WrestleMania,

1196
01:03:48,691 --> 01:03:52,428
you're going to Vengeance Day
to lose your title.

1197
01:03:52,495 --> 01:03:54,830
Maybe the reason that Roxanne
lost the Rumble is

1198
01:03:54,897 --> 01:03:57,066
because we put her ass
through a table last week.

1199
01:03:57,133 --> 01:04:00,236
Yeah. Did you see the look on her face
when she realized she got tricked?

1200
01:04:00,303 --> 01:04:02,138
Looks like a deer in the headlights.
[chuckles]

1201
01:04:02,205 --> 01:04:06,475
But don't worry. It'll all be over
for a Little Miss Perfect real soon.

1202
01:04:07,210 --> 01:04:09,979
You two like to act like
you're best friends,

1203
01:04:10,046 --> 01:04:13,716
but I know there's a lot of truth
behind everything you said to each other.

1204
01:04:13,783 --> 01:04:16,586
The truth is
you have no shot at Vengeance Day.

1205
01:04:16,652 --> 01:04:18,788
How are you gonna beat the two of us?

1206
01:04:18,855 --> 01:04:19,689
You know how I'm gonna beat you?

1207
01:04:19,755 --> 01:04:23,192
You have the same percent chance
of winning that match on Saturday

1208
01:04:23,259 --> 01:04:27,096
as you did at winning
the Royal Rumble, 0% chance.

1209
01:04:27,163 --> 01:04:30,233
Zero. Roxanne, you're good and all,

1210
01:04:30,299 --> 01:04:33,102
but when you're going up
against the two baddest woman in NXT…

1211
01:04:33,169 --> 01:04:36,172
-At the same time. No chance.
-…you have no chance.

1212
01:04:36,239 --> 01:04:38,774
-Actually, I have more of a chance--
-Listen, kid.

1213
01:04:38,841 --> 01:04:40,543
You had a good run.

1214
01:04:40,610 --> 01:04:44,380
Eight months in NXT,
it's kinda like going for a little jog,

1215
01:04:44,447 --> 01:04:47,884
kudos to you, but you see,

1216
01:04:47,950 --> 01:04:51,487
you peaked at 21 years old.

1217
01:04:51,554 --> 01:04:53,055
That sucks for you.

1218
01:04:53,122 --> 01:04:56,893
And this Saturday,
it's all coming to an end.

1219
01:04:56,959 --> 01:04:59,762
-It's not.
-Oh, but it is.

1220
01:04:59,829 --> 01:05:02,098
But…
Hey, at least you can go back to Texas

1221
01:05:02,164 --> 01:05:05,201
and tell everyone you had
a big cup of coffee up in the big times,

1222
01:05:05,268 --> 01:05:07,236
but you made one critical mistake.

1223
01:05:07,303 --> 01:05:09,872
You messed with Toxic Attraction.

1224
01:05:09,939 --> 01:05:14,377
Hey, look on the bright side,
you can always play the what-if game.

1225
01:05:14,443 --> 01:05:18,281
"What if I stayed in my Lane
and didn't punch up?"

1226
01:05:18,347 --> 01:05:21,050
-Jacy--
-Shut up, Roxanne. I'm talking.

1227
01:05:21,117 --> 01:05:21,984
[scoffs]

1228
01:05:22,051 --> 01:05:27,790
"What if I was a good little girl
and didn't make any waves?" Ugh.

1229
01:05:27,857 --> 01:05:30,860
Roxanne, whether you like it or not,

1230
01:05:30,926 --> 01:05:35,164
it's gonna be two against one on Saturday.

1231
01:05:35,231 --> 01:05:40,369
Your ride is over.
Your 15 minutes of fame is over.

1232
01:05:42,571 --> 01:05:45,174
[Vic] Wait a minute, Roxanne, don't…

1233
01:05:45,241 --> 01:05:47,310
-[Vic] Roxanne, please come back.
-See ya. Bye. Is she leaving?

1234
01:05:47,376 --> 01:05:48,778
She's gonna leave
in the middle of an interview?

1235
01:05:48,844 --> 01:05:50,680
-She can't take the heat?
-That's our champ.

1236
01:05:50,746 --> 01:05:52,848
-She'll cry in the closet now.
-What a champion. Get outta here.

1237
01:05:52,915 --> 01:05:53,950
[Vic] Well, that was uncalled for.

1238
01:05:54,016 --> 01:05:56,652
-[Vic] You clearly upset Roxanne Perez.
-Who cares?

1239
01:05:56,719 --> 01:05:59,588
After Saturday, she's old news.

1240
01:05:59,655 --> 01:06:04,026
You're looking at the next
NXT Women's Champion right here.

1241
01:06:04,093 --> 01:06:08,397
[Vic] You said Roxanne won't leave
Charlotte as champion, so who will?

1242
01:06:08,464 --> 01:06:09,665
You're looking at them?

1243
01:06:09,732 --> 01:06:12,735
Vic, I know you and Booker,
especially Booker,

1244
01:06:12,802 --> 01:06:14,870
are huge fans of Roxanne,

1245
01:06:14,937 --> 01:06:18,908
and you're just trying to find a crack
between us, but there isn't one.

1246
01:06:18,975 --> 01:06:20,543
For almost two years,

1247
01:06:20,609 --> 01:06:25,314
Toxic Attraction has controlled
the entire NXT women's division.

1248
01:06:25,381 --> 01:06:26,682
For the last six weeks,

1249
01:06:26,749 --> 01:06:29,418
everyone's been
on a little vacation from it.

1250
01:06:29,485 --> 01:06:32,421
But soon, order will be restored.

1251
01:06:32,488 --> 01:06:36,559
And Gigi and I will take
our rightful spot in NXT

1252
01:06:36,625 --> 01:06:39,862
and show the world
just who the hell we really are.

1253
01:06:39,929 --> 01:06:42,398
This day has been a long time coming.

1254
01:06:42,465 --> 01:06:46,035
Roxanne just so happens to be
the first person to push it to the edge.

1255
01:06:46,102 --> 01:06:49,004
At Vengeance Day,
the course of this women's division

1256
01:06:49,071 --> 01:06:51,640
will shift back to the Attraction when I…

1257
01:06:51,707 --> 01:06:55,111
When we become the NXT Women's Champion.

1258
01:06:55,177 --> 01:06:56,879
-[audience booing]
-Jacy, when Gigi just said…

1259
01:06:56,946 --> 01:06:59,849
-[screaming and grunting]
-[Vic] Oh.

1260
01:06:59,915 --> 01:07:02,151
-[audience cheering]
-[grunting]

1261
01:07:03,552 --> 01:07:07,823
[Vic] Book, I don't think this is a side
of Roxanne Toxic is ready for.

1262
01:07:07,890 --> 01:07:11,494
-They're destroying the set.
-[Booker] Roxanne knows about a fight.

1263
01:07:11,560 --> 01:07:13,062
She knows.

1264
01:07:13,129 --> 01:07:16,799
[screaming]

1265
01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:18,734
[Booker] Yeah.

1266
01:07:18,801 --> 01:07:22,438
[inaudible]

1267
01:07:23,305 --> 01:07:24,140
[Vic chuckles]

1268
01:07:24,206 --> 01:07:25,141
[bell ringing]

1269
01:07:25,207 --> 01:07:28,244
[Alicia] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1270
01:07:28,310 --> 01:07:31,414
Introducing first, Dani Palmer.

1271
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:37,319
[Vic] Roxanne Perez is showing she's ready
for Saturday night in Charlotte.

1272
01:07:42,691 --> 01:07:45,694
["Cyber Runner" music playing]

1273
01:07:54,303 --> 01:07:59,008
[Alicia] And her opponent, Stevie Turner.

1274
01:08:00,009 --> 01:08:03,813
-[Vic] Well, download is complete.
-[Booker] Oh, yeah.

1275
01:08:03,879 --> 01:08:08,751
[Vic] For Stevie Turner.
Look, Book, two-time WWE Hall of Famer.

1276
01:08:08,818 --> 01:08:11,921
We all know what you saw in Roxanne Perez,

1277
01:08:11,987 --> 01:08:15,524
which has led her to the moment
to become NXT Women's Champion.

1278
01:08:15,591 --> 01:08:21,363
What are you looking for right now in this
debut here on NXT of Stevie Turner?

1279
01:08:21,430 --> 01:08:26,769
[Booker] Oh, man, Stevie Turner,
multi-talented superstar,

1280
01:08:26,836 --> 01:08:31,140
and got one of the hottest podcasts
around the country.

1281
01:08:31,207 --> 01:08:33,742
But tonight, we're gonna see
what she's all about

1282
01:08:33,809 --> 01:08:36,078
in the middle of that 20-by-20.

1283
01:08:36,145 --> 01:08:41,250
Oh, I can't wait to see
what Stevie Turner is all about.

1284
01:08:41,317 --> 01:08:43,118
[Vic] Did you reach out
for some podcast tips?

1285
01:08:43,185 --> 01:08:47,323
[Booker] Most definitely, but I got
one of the hottest podcasts as well.

1286
01:08:47,389 --> 01:08:48,290
That's another story.

1287
01:08:48,357 --> 01:08:50,626
-[bell ringing]
-[Booker] Let's get back to the action.

1288
01:08:50,693 --> 01:08:53,963
[Vic] Oh, you see, for Dani Palmer,
there's no nerves,

1289
01:08:54,029 --> 01:08:58,067
and Palmer in her own right would love
to ruin this debut of Stevie Turner

1290
01:08:58,134 --> 01:09:01,337
who had quite the rep in NXT UK.

1291
01:09:01,403 --> 01:09:05,641
[Booker] Let me tell you something, I've
heard a whole lot about Stevie Turner.

1292
01:09:05,708 --> 01:09:10,312
And Dani Palmer,
to get that upset victory pushes you--

1293
01:09:10,379 --> 01:09:11,780
Right there, look at that back flip.

1294
01:09:11,847 --> 01:09:14,450
[Vic] It certainly does. Again,
we've talked about this week after week

1295
01:09:14,517 --> 01:09:17,019
and I'll highlight the women's champion
one more time.

1296
01:09:17,086 --> 01:09:21,390
The landscape of the women's division
could change Saturday night in Charlotte

1297
01:09:21,457 --> 01:09:24,260
at Vengeance Day,
but with Stevie Turner here now,

1298
01:09:24,326 --> 01:09:27,096
we talk about Sol Ruca, Elektra Lopez.

1299
01:09:27,162 --> 01:09:29,899
-This is another name now in the mix…
-[Booker] Oh, look at that.

1300
01:09:29,965 --> 01:09:31,700
[Vic] …in this women's division
along with Dani Palmer.

1301
01:09:31,767 --> 01:09:34,036
[Booker] Losing the balance.
You said it, Vic.

1302
01:09:34,103 --> 01:09:35,938
All of these ladies
are looking for one thing,

1303
01:09:36,005 --> 01:09:38,908
to get their piece of the action.

1304
01:09:38,974 --> 01:09:43,145
Trust me, I know what it's all about,
my first title, my first singles title,

1305
01:09:43,212 --> 01:09:46,782
that television championship
launched me straight to the moon.

1306
01:09:46,849 --> 01:09:50,152
-[Vic] Took you to the paying window, huh?
-[Booker] Oh, yes.

1307
01:09:50,219 --> 01:09:52,188
-[referee] Come on. Let's get out of here.
-[screams]

1308
01:09:52,254 --> 01:09:53,556
[Vic] Oh, you just hear Turner.

1309
01:09:53,622 --> 01:09:56,559
Look, Stevie Turner,
when you take a look at the track record

1310
01:09:56,625 --> 01:09:59,428
of Stevie Turner here tonight
who has been nothing short of dominant,

1311
01:09:59,495 --> 01:10:03,232
she's someone who stood toe to toe
with the legendary Meiko Satomura.

1312
01:10:03,299 --> 01:10:05,367
[Booker] I didn't see that matchup
or anything like that,

1313
01:10:05,434 --> 01:10:06,535
but let me tell you right now,

1314
01:10:06,602 --> 01:10:11,106
Stevie Turner is definitely
enjoying her work right now.

1315
01:10:11,173 --> 01:10:16,078
She's admiring every step
of this process and I love it.

1316
01:10:16,145 --> 01:10:17,680
[Vic] That certainly could be
a rude awakening

1317
01:10:17,746 --> 01:10:19,248
to Dani Palmer here in NXT

1318
01:10:19,315 --> 01:10:22,885
as now Palmer who is in cruise control
almost on this matchup.

1319
01:10:22,952 --> 01:10:24,186
I can only imagine

1320
01:10:24,253 --> 01:10:26,956
what Palmer is gonna
talk about on her podcast

1321
01:10:27,022 --> 01:10:29,525
the next time she gets ready to download
any sort of knowledge

1322
01:10:29,592 --> 01:10:30,726
to those that follow her.

1323
01:10:30,793 --> 01:10:33,996
[Booker] Right now,
Stevie Turner she's doing that one thing

1324
01:10:34,063 --> 01:10:35,731
you wanna do
when you're making your debut,

1325
01:10:35,798 --> 01:10:39,201
put everybody on notice, man.

1326
01:10:39,268 --> 01:10:42,137
Everybody in that locker room
is on notice.

1327
01:10:42,204 --> 01:10:45,174
[Vic] Look at her right now, Palmer
trying to fight back in this matchup.

1328
01:10:45,241 --> 01:10:47,977
Oh, Dani Palmer knows
how big this moment is.

1329
01:10:48,043 --> 01:10:50,846
We talked about it earlier tonight,
we talked about it with Tyler Bate, Axiom,

1330
01:10:50,913 --> 01:10:52,815
those that aren't gonna be
at Vengeance Day,

1331
01:10:52,881 --> 01:10:55,651
that are looking to Hollywood,
looking to Stand & Deliver.

1332
01:10:55,718 --> 01:10:58,420
There's no different when it comes
to a superstar like Dani Palmer.

1333
01:10:58,487 --> 01:11:00,789
-[Booker] Dani Palmer now she's on a…
-[Vic] Thesz press.

1334
01:11:00,856 --> 01:11:03,792
[Booker] …she's definitely on the move
and she's looking.

1335
01:11:03,859 --> 01:11:07,863
She's looking real good.
Letting it all hang out, Vic.

1336
01:11:07,930 --> 01:11:10,099
[Vic] Well, Stevie Turner says
she's four-dimensional.

1337
01:11:10,165 --> 01:11:13,502
Right now, it's Dani Palmer
who's in every single dimension,

1338
01:11:13,569 --> 01:11:15,037
anything she can to keep Turner down,

1339
01:11:15,104 --> 01:11:17,640
but Turner able
to cut a little corner there

1340
01:11:17,706 --> 01:11:18,907
and turn things around.

1341
01:11:18,974 --> 01:11:22,878
-What a pump kick under the jaw.
-[Booker] Beautiful pump kick.

1342
01:11:22,945 --> 01:11:26,715
-[Vic] Ooh! What a DDT as well.
-[Booker] Goodnight.

1343
01:11:27,616 --> 01:11:30,219
[Vic] And Stevie Turner,
the one thing I think we can say is

1344
01:11:30,286 --> 01:11:33,255
she certainly is composed for this moment.

1345
01:11:33,322 --> 01:11:34,156
[Booker] You look at her

1346
01:11:34,223 --> 01:11:37,626
and you see no holes
in her game right now, Vic.

1347
01:11:37,693 --> 01:11:40,729
She's checking off every box
as far as I've--

1348
01:11:40,796 --> 01:11:43,465
That was a beautiful drop. Goodnight.

1349
01:11:43,532 --> 01:11:47,803
[Vic] What an impressive
statement made tonight by Turner.

1350
01:11:47,870 --> 01:11:49,038
[Alicia] Here is your winner,

1351
01:11:49,104 --> 01:11:52,341
-Stevie Turner.
-[Booker laughs]

1352
01:11:52,408 --> 01:11:53,475
[Booker] Look at her.

1353
01:11:53,542 --> 01:11:56,712
[Vic] Did she show you
what you wanted to see in her debut?

1354
01:11:56,779 --> 01:11:59,315
Did she answer the questions, Book?
Check the boxes?

1355
01:11:59,381 --> 01:12:05,721
[Booker] She showed me everything.
When I say everything, I mean everything.

1356
01:12:05,788 --> 01:12:11,727
[Vic] Talk about a futuristic finish
to this matchup for Turner,

1357
01:12:11,794 --> 01:12:17,166
who proves tonight she is indeed
two levels above and two steps ahead.

1358
01:12:19,868 --> 01:12:25,974
Yeah. Okay. I'll see you there, Zack.
I love you, too. Bye.

1359
01:12:27,476 --> 01:12:29,445
-Who was that?
-What?

1360
01:12:29,511 --> 01:12:31,714
-Kiana, who was on the phone?
-No one. Don't worry about it.

1361
01:12:31,780 --> 01:12:32,948
[chuckles]

1362
01:12:33,015 --> 01:12:36,085
I knew you were gonna do this.
I knew you were gonna break Brooks' heart.

1363
01:12:36,151 --> 01:12:38,120
-Fallon, it's not what you think.
-You got to be kidding me.

1364
01:12:38,187 --> 01:12:39,488
You don't even know why you're upset now--

1365
01:12:39,555 --> 01:12:42,057
You think you are so sly.
Who was on the phone, Kiana?

1366
01:12:42,124 --> 01:12:45,027
Look what we have here,
it's the Number 1 Contenders,

1367
01:12:45,094 --> 01:12:48,197
-not talking about our match, I see.
-Yes. Sounds like trouble to me.

1368
01:12:48,263 --> 01:12:50,466
I guess sound really
travels fast around here.

1369
01:12:50,532 --> 01:12:52,968
Don't worry, the only sound
that you two will be hearing is,

1370
01:12:53,035 --> 01:12:56,739
"And new NXT Women's Tag Team Champions."

1371
01:12:56,805 --> 01:12:58,040
Have you been giving
her a lot to drink lately?

1372
01:12:58,107 --> 01:13:00,342
Yeah, you guys have been
a team for like a week.

1373
01:13:00,409 --> 01:13:05,514
-We've been tagging for years.
-Respectfully, Katana, we know, we get it.

1374
01:13:05,581 --> 01:13:08,751
You guys are best friends.
Now, we might not be as close as you two,

1375
01:13:08,817 --> 01:13:12,821
but Saturday is the biggest match
of my life and I am going all out.

1376
01:13:12,888 --> 01:13:15,824
-We're going all out.
-Yes. We'll see about that.

1377
01:13:15,891 --> 01:13:19,294
And whether you do or you don't,
these titles are staying here with us.

1378
01:13:19,361 --> 01:13:20,863
That's right. Let's go.

1379
01:13:22,564 --> 01:13:26,235
Hey, hey, hey.

1380
01:13:26,301 --> 01:13:27,336
What?

1381
01:13:27,403 --> 01:13:31,407
Let's stay focused for Saturday,
but this conversation is not over.

1382
01:13:32,541 --> 01:13:35,277
["Crawl" music playing]

1383
01:13:35,344 --> 01:13:36,211
[bell ringing]

1384
01:13:36,278 --> 01:13:38,981
[Alicia] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1385
01:13:39,047 --> 01:13:43,218
Introducing first, Charlie Dempsey.

1386
01:13:44,353 --> 01:13:49,358
[Vic] We're taking a look at a superstar
who is the definition of hard-nosed.

1387
01:13:49,992 --> 01:13:53,729
[Booker] Oh, yes.
I can't wait for this one right here.

1388
01:13:54,296 --> 01:13:56,131
Been waiting all night.

1389
01:13:56,198 --> 01:13:59,201
["Fade" music playing]

1390
01:14:00,702 --> 01:14:07,709
[Alicia] And his opponent,
accompanied by Hank Walker, Drew Gulak.

1391
01:14:11,814 --> 01:14:15,451
-Ready? Keep your eye on the ball.
-Watch. Taking note. Taking note.

1392
01:14:25,661 --> 01:14:27,663
[Vic] Well, Drew Gulak
has certainly had a target

1393
01:14:27,729 --> 01:14:30,465
on Charlie Dempsey for quite some time.

1394
01:14:30,532 --> 01:14:33,302
You know it was Gulak who blames Dempsey

1395
01:14:33,368 --> 01:14:36,338
for the loss to The Creed Brothers,
the tag team match?

1396
01:14:36,405 --> 01:14:38,440
[Booker] You know what? I beg to differ.

1397
01:14:38,507 --> 01:14:43,979
I blame Gulak. Gulak is a professional.
He lost the momentum.

1398
01:14:44,046 --> 01:14:47,349
He took his eye off the pri…
He lost focus.

1399
01:14:47,416 --> 01:14:51,053
-You don't do that. You can't do that.
-[bell ringing]

1400
01:14:51,119 --> 01:14:53,121
[Vic] I mentioned hard nose for Dempsey.

1401
01:14:53,188 --> 01:14:57,426
Some would also classify Drew Gulak
as a hard-nosed superstar as well.

1402
01:14:57,492 --> 01:15:01,864
[Booker] I mean, he is.
I look at both of these guys right here,

1403
01:15:01,930 --> 01:15:04,566
two of the best grappler here in NXT,

1404
01:15:04,633 --> 01:15:08,036
two guys I call
precision tactician tonight.

1405
01:15:08,103 --> 01:15:12,174
This is gonna be storybook, Vic.
I'm looking forward to this one.

1406
01:15:12,241 --> 01:15:14,643
[Vic] Oh, shoulders almost down,
referee in great position.

1407
01:15:14,710 --> 01:15:16,612
You see Hank Walker on the outside

1408
01:15:16,678 --> 01:15:19,982
getting a little bit of firsthand
knowledge from Drew Gulak.

1409
01:15:20,048 --> 01:15:21,783
Obviously, he's been taken
under Gulak's wing,

1410
01:15:21,850 --> 01:15:23,418
and Drew's trying to show him

1411
01:15:23,485 --> 01:15:26,588
how it's done here
against Charlie Dempsey.

1412
01:15:26,655 --> 01:15:29,124
You talk about both these superstars
being throwbacks,

1413
01:15:29,191 --> 01:15:33,228
this is gonna be an even more of a…
It's been a hard-hitting Tuesday.

1414
01:15:33,295 --> 01:15:35,864
-That's the opening tag team matchup.
-[Booker] I love it.

1415
01:15:35,931 --> 01:15:38,934
[audience applauding and chattering]

1416
01:15:42,804 --> 01:15:47,342
[Vic] Back live on NXT and you continue
to see the hard-hitting Tuesday

1417
01:15:47,409 --> 01:15:50,178
that it's been throughout
the commercial break

1418
01:15:50,245 --> 01:15:53,949
as these two, Dempsey, Gulak,
were slugging it out.

1419
01:15:54,016 --> 01:15:56,084
And look, both these guys
are students of the game, Book,

1420
01:15:56,151 --> 01:15:57,052
so what separates them?

1421
01:15:57,119 --> 01:16:00,088
Is it Charlie Dempsey's
blue blood pedigree

1422
01:16:00,155 --> 01:16:01,723
or is it Gulak's tenacity?

1423
01:16:01,790 --> 01:16:05,494
[Booker] We've seen Gulak
for quite some time, and we know his game,

1424
01:16:05,561 --> 01:16:10,899
but this kid, Dempsey, this kid is,
he's young, he's fresh off the press.

1425
01:16:10,966 --> 01:16:13,769
-And tonight, we're gonna see exactly…
-[Vic] Cover. Cover. Cover.

1426
01:16:13,835 --> 01:16:16,939
[Booker] …if he has the goods
in here with Drew Gulak.

1427
01:16:17,005 --> 01:16:20,809
[Vic] Now you take a look at Dempsey
and you see Hank Walker on the outside.

1428
01:16:20,876 --> 01:16:23,078
-[Vic] Dempsey.
-[Booker] Beautiful bridge.

1429
01:16:23,145 --> 01:16:24,947
[Vic] Now, trying to roll through,
referee is in great position,

1430
01:16:25,013 --> 01:16:28,216
but right into a submission
and look at Gulak.

1431
01:16:28,283 --> 01:16:31,219
Gulak's neck is bent,
his arm's being stretched,

1432
01:16:31,286 --> 01:16:33,889
-Charlie Dempsey's tying him up.
-[Booker] You said it right there, Vic.

1433
01:16:33,956 --> 01:16:39,027
Right now, Drew Gulak is being stretched
by this young man, Charlie Dempsey.

1434
01:16:39,094 --> 01:16:41,163
And that could be the difference,

1435
01:16:41,229 --> 01:16:43,198
the youth of this young man,
Charlie Dempsey--

1436
01:16:43,265 --> 01:16:46,435
[Vic] Shoulders down into the crucifix,
nice transition into the pin,

1437
01:16:46,501 --> 01:16:49,071
but look how quick
Charlie Dempsey closes the door

1438
01:16:49,137 --> 01:16:52,040
and right back
to that double underhook suplex,

1439
01:16:52,107 --> 01:16:55,544
this time into a cover,
and a kick out by Gulak.

1440
01:16:55,611 --> 01:17:00,282
[Booker] This kid, Charlie Dempsey,
very, very fluid in transition.

1441
01:17:00,349 --> 01:17:03,485
I love that. I love that.
Look at that for power.

1442
01:17:03,552 --> 01:17:06,088
[Vic] German suplex bridge,
shoulders down,

1443
01:17:06,154 --> 01:17:08,223
and just able to roll through,

1444
01:17:08,290 --> 01:17:12,027
was Gulak at the last moment.
We see Hank Walker sitting out here.

1445
01:17:12,094 --> 01:17:17,099
We talk about getting a nice seat
to his teacher, that being Drew Gulak,

1446
01:17:17,165 --> 01:17:20,802
but he's also up close to Charlie Dempsey,
a superstar who said

1447
01:17:20,869 --> 01:17:23,939
Hank Walker doesn't belong here in NXT.

1448
01:17:24,006 --> 01:17:29,578
[Booker] Kid's given a crash course.
We call that on-the-job training.

1449
01:17:29,644 --> 01:17:32,280
-This kid, Hank Walker's a…
-[thuds]

1450
01:17:32,347 --> 01:17:34,683
-Wow! Big move there.
-[Vic] Big counter as well.

1451
01:17:34,750 --> 01:17:38,020
I don't know. Gulak, might have been
looking for possibly a Crossface.

1452
01:17:38,086 --> 01:17:40,922
But right now up in…
Gulak able to step through.

1453
01:17:40,989 --> 01:17:42,958
Again looking
for that dragon screw takedown.

1454
01:17:43,025 --> 01:17:46,161
Didn't work the second time,
but the third time paid off,

1455
01:17:46,228 --> 01:17:51,266
and now that's two as Dempsey
really is focusing on the knee,

1456
01:17:51,333 --> 01:17:53,535
the lower body of Drew Gulak,

1457
01:17:53,602 --> 01:17:57,673
and is starting to pick apart Gulak
in this matchup.

1458
01:17:57,739 --> 01:17:59,641
[Booker] You call that
a dragon screw leg whip.

1459
01:17:59,708 --> 01:18:00,542
That was a little different.

1460
01:18:00,609 --> 01:18:03,712
That was a little modified by this kid,
Charlie Dempsey.

1461
01:18:03,779 --> 01:18:06,615
And that's what I like about this youth,
this generation.

1462
01:18:06,682 --> 01:18:09,151
-[Vic] And a clothesline.
-[Booker] Putting their own spin.

1463
01:18:09,217 --> 01:18:11,386
-[Booker] Whoa, here we go.
-[Vic] Could it be the knockout blow?

1464
01:18:11,453 --> 01:18:13,388
-[Booker] So close. So close.
-[Vic] Right shoulder just getting up,

1465
01:18:13,455 --> 01:18:16,491
but look at Gulak right back
to that left knee,

1466
01:18:16,558 --> 01:18:19,828
which has been the focal point for Dempsey
throughout this matchup.

1467
01:18:19,895 --> 01:18:23,131
And let's go back
to this clothesline right here.

1468
01:18:23,198 --> 01:18:27,903
Bam, a little extra force from Gulak
who, again, gets countered

1469
01:18:27,969 --> 01:18:32,507
with a unique backbreaker falling
into the cover and another near-fall.

1470
01:18:32,574 --> 01:18:35,243
[Booker] This kid is very, very unique

1471
01:18:35,310 --> 01:18:41,683
as far as the way he's taking this kid out
just bit by bit, minute by minute.

1472
01:18:41,750 --> 01:18:42,684
Let me tell you something.

1473
01:18:42,751 --> 01:18:46,755
Gulak needs to do something
and he needs to do it now, Vic.

1474
01:18:46,822 --> 01:18:48,523
[audience chanting] Let's go, Charlie.

1475

being very vocal

1476
01:18:51,193 --> 01:18:53,662

1481
01:19:02,671 --> 01:19:06,475
Dempsey didn't take too kind
and into the cover.

1482
01:19:06,541 --> 01:19:08,210
Is this gonna be enough? Didn't think so.

1483
01:19:08,276 --> 01:19:10,178
Look at the counter,
looking for another submission.

1484
01:19:10,245 --> 01:19:13,348
[Booker] Beautiful counter there
by this kid, Charlie Dempsey.

1485
01:19:13,415 --> 01:19:16,485
But I'm gonna tell you right now,
Drew Gulak, this dude,

1486
01:19:16,551 --> 01:19:18,887
he's gonna do anything to win.

1487
01:19:18,954 --> 01:19:22,290
He's not gonna worry
about taking shortcuts.

1488
01:19:22,357 --> 01:19:24,559
Trust me. Trust me. He'll do it.

1489
01:19:24,626 --> 01:19:26,361
[Vic] Gulak's looking to hear the snap,
the crackle,

1490
01:19:26,428 --> 01:19:27,996
and the pop in Charlie Dempsey.

1491
01:19:28,063 --> 01:19:30,632
Here again, looking
for the crossface chickenwing,

1492
01:19:30,699 --> 01:19:32,267
Dempsey trying to lock his hands.

1493
01:19:32,334 --> 01:19:36,138
Gulak is fighting
and going right back to the knee

1494
01:19:36,204 --> 01:19:38,373
to get some leverage is Dempsey.

1495
01:19:38,440 --> 01:19:42,544
[Booker] Let me tell you something,
Dempsey is all over Drew Gulak right now.

1496
01:19:42,611 --> 01:19:45,480
It's over, Vic. It's over.
This thing is over.

1497
01:19:45,547 --> 01:19:46,481
-He's got him finished.
-[Vic] Wrapping his legs

1498
01:19:46,548 --> 01:19:48,416
but can Dempsey clinch his hands?

1499
01:19:48,483 --> 01:19:51,953
Can Dempsey get his hands cinched
for this crossface chickenwing?

1500
01:19:52,020 --> 01:19:55,223
[Booker] Let me tell you something,
if Dempsey can get that one arm secured,

1501
01:19:55,290 --> 01:19:58,293
that right arm secured
under the neck of Drew Gulak,

1502
01:19:58,360 --> 01:20:00,896
-this thing is over, Vic.
-[inaudible] You got to do it. Come on.

1503
01:20:00,962 --> 01:20:03,098
[Vic] You hear Walker… Oh!

1504
01:20:03,165 --> 01:20:07,669
Inadvertent contact as Walker
was getting close to the ring shouting

1505
01:20:07,736 --> 01:20:09,804
at his teacher Drew Gulak.

1506
01:20:10,338 --> 01:20:11,706
Gulak's able to break the whole.

1507
01:20:11,773 --> 01:20:14,509
And Gulak from behind
rolling up, shoulders down.

1508

01:25:09,838 --> 01:25:11,973
-[Vic] What are you trying to say?
-[Vic] They're giving an opportunity.

1603
01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:13,675
[Booker] Now you understand
what I'm saying, Vic.

1604
01:25:13,741 --> 01:25:16,010
-[Booker] Come on, man.
-[Vic] What do you mean, come…

1605
01:25:16,077 --> 01:25:19,280
[Vic] They have less of a chance now,
25% if you do the math.

1606
01:25:19,347 --> 01:25:22,684
They're hurting their own odds,
but they're giving the opportunity to NXT

1607
01:25:22,750 --> 01:25:25,954
because they respect
and they admire all the superstars.

1608
01:25:26,020 --> 01:25:29,891
[Booker] Like I said,
who has the biggest advantage?

1609
01:25:29,958 --> 01:25:32,961
-[Booker] Who? Who? Who?
-[Vic] Now you're stealing their stuff.

1610
01:25:33,027 --> 01:25:34,729
-[Booker] Who?
-[Vic] Now you're stealing their stuff.

1611
01:25:34,796 --> 01:25:37,298
You're talking about stealing money,
but yet you were in the Royal Rumble

1612
01:25:37,365 --> 01:25:39,234
-taking someone's spot in the Alamodome.
-[Booker] I'm just saying, Vic.

1613
01:25:39,300 --> 01:25:40,468
I wasn't taking anybody's spot.

1614
01:25:40,535 --> 01:25:43,171
Let me tell you something,
Rey Mysterio got hurt.

1615
01:25:43,238 --> 01:25:45,473
I got the call at the last minute
and I took advantage of it

1616
01:25:45,540 --> 01:25:46,975
[Vic] Into the cover.

1617
01:25:47,041 --> 01:25:50,178
Oh, Andre Chase is looking
to take advantage of the situation

1618
01:25:50,245 --> 01:25:53,515
as Chase U is trying
to get one step closer to Charlotte.

1619
01:25:53,581 --> 01:25:56,417
Let's look at all three of these teams.

1620
01:25:56,484 --> 01:25:59,087
There was a tag and here comes Enofe.

1621
01:25:59,154 --> 01:26:02,957
Look. This is a duo in Enofe
and Blade that had been on the rise.

1622
01:26:03,024 --> 01:26:04,826
You just don't like these guys.
I don't get it.

1623
01:26:04,893 --> 01:26:08,763
[Booker] Look, is not that
I don't like Blade and Enofe.

1624
01:26:08,830 --> 01:26:14,335
I love tag team wrestling.
This team has major potential.

1625
01:26:14,402 --> 01:26:17,405
I just wanna see them live up
to their potential. That's all.

1626
01:26:17,472 --> 01:26:18,573
[Vic] Shoulders down one more time,

1627
01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:21,376
and just able to get
the shoulders up was Enofe.

1628
01:26:21,442 --> 01:26:25,079
Enofe right back at it.
Look, NXT Anonymous, whomever that is.

1629
01:26:25,146 --> 01:26:29,350
Again, Chase, one step ahead of Enofe,
almost a teachable moment, if you would.

1630
01:26:29,417 --> 01:26:31,653
NXT Anonymous has struck.

1631
01:26:31,719 --> 01:26:32,554
[audience chanting]

1632
01:26:32,620 --> 01:26:35,056
-It's a teachable moment.
-[Vic] He must have heard me.

1633
01:26:35,123 --> 01:26:39,060
It must have struck both Chase U and Enofe
as of late.

1634
01:26:39,127 --> 01:26:44,132
[Booker] Let me tell you something, Chase,
Duke Hudson. I believe in that team.

1635
01:26:44,199 --> 01:26:48,603
I've questioned Andre Chase's tactics
as far as not willing to got out there

1636
01:26:48,670 --> 01:26:52,507
and do anything to win,
but I believe in these guys.

1637
01:26:52,574 --> 01:26:56,911
[Vic] Chase U right now could be
on the wrong end as Enofe, makes the tag.

1638
01:26:56,978 --> 01:26:58,613
-Blade is legal.
-Make the tag.

1639
01:26:58,680 --> 01:27:01,082
[Vic] Chase certainly doesn't realize it,
but will here in a moment.

1640
01:27:01,149 --> 01:27:03,384
Look, Enofe and Blade.
This is big for them.

1641
01:27:03,451 --> 01:27:06,788
This could be that statement win
in their young careers

1642
01:27:06,854 --> 01:27:10,224
because they are one win away
from an opportunity

1643
01:27:10,291 --> 01:27:12,927
at the NXT Tag Team Championship.

1644
01:27:12,994 --> 01:27:15,096
-[Booker] You got to stay focused.
-[Vic] Huge main event.

1645
01:27:15,163 --> 01:27:18,466
[Booker] This is a big, big matchup
right here to get that last spot

1646
01:27:18,533 --> 01:27:22,170
to perhaps change the whole trajectory
of your career.

1647
01:27:22,237 --> 01:27:23,605
You've got to take it, man.

1648
01:27:23,671 --> 01:27:25,440
[Vic] A tag was made and right now…

1649
01:27:26,641 --> 01:27:32,146
it is Reid who is taking advantage
of this matchup for The Dyad, for Schism.

1650
01:27:32,213 --> 01:27:37,118
Could you imagine Schism
with the tag team gold.

1651
01:27:37,185 --> 01:27:39,020
-With that power?
-[Booker] Lemme tell you something.

1652
01:27:39,087 --> 01:27:42,323
If I was a betting man,
I would put everything,

1653
01:27:42,390 --> 01:27:47,395
I'm talking about everything on The Dyad.
You know why? Because they have direction.

1654
01:27:47,462 --> 01:27:49,163
[Vic] Ooh!

1655
01:27:49,230 --> 01:27:51,799
What the [bleep]? What?

1656
01:27:53,167 --> 01:27:56,471
[Vic] Fowler
and Reid certainly in control,

1657
01:27:56,537 --> 01:27:57,672
and could be in control

1658
01:27:57,739 --> 01:28:02,410
as they called it of their own destiny
this Saturday.

1659
01:28:02,477 --> 01:28:06,414
As Gacy with a sickening smile
as now Fowler

1660
01:28:06,481 --> 01:28:09,884
continuing to apply the pressure
on Andre Chase.

1661
01:28:09,951 --> 01:28:13,721
[Booker] Gacy got The Dyad primed
for the situation right here.

1662
01:28:13,788 --> 01:28:19,060
Like I say, Vic, having that direction,
having that focus, having that momentum.

1663
01:28:19,127 --> 01:28:21,629
And right now, The Dyad has all of that.

1664
01:28:21,696 --> 01:28:23,031
[Vic] Into the cover for Fowler.

1665
01:28:23,097 --> 01:28:25,433
Doesn't hook the leg,
and Chase able to kick off.

1666
01:28:25,500 --> 01:28:28,970
But one second away was The Dyad
from going to Vengeance Day.

1667
01:28:29,037 --> 01:28:32,707
That really is what is on the mind
of Schism each and every week.

1668
01:28:32,774 --> 01:28:35,043
And, Book, I'll ask you this much.

1669
01:28:35,109 --> 01:28:39,180
Why can Schism question
what it is when it comes to loyalty

1670
01:28:39,247 --> 01:28:42,950
but New Day aren't loyal to each other,
Chase U isn't loyal, false idols?

1671
01:28:43,017 --> 01:28:45,153
Why do they get to question others?

1672
01:28:45,219 --> 01:28:48,089
[Booker] I mean,
The Dyad was their own ship.

1673
01:28:48,156 --> 01:28:49,090
-[Booker] The Dyad now…
-[Vic] Another cover.

1674
01:28:49,157 --> 01:28:51,893
-Another count and another kick out.
-[Booker] They're in their own soul.

1675
01:28:51,959 --> 01:28:54,095
That's why, Vic. You know why?

1676
01:28:54,162 --> 01:28:57,832
-You go and ask Joe Gacy why…
-[Vic] I'm not talking to Joe Gacy.

1677
01:28:57,899 --> 01:28:59,867
-[Booker] Why don't you do that?
-[Vic] You talk to Joe Gacy.

1678
01:28:59,934 --> 01:29:02,737
-[Booker] Why don't you talk to Joe Gacy?
-[Vic] Ask him.

1679
01:29:02,804 --> 01:29:04,072
-You ask him.
-[Booker] You're the one who questions.

1680
01:29:04,138 --> 01:29:05,440
[Vic] You're the two-time
WWE Hall of Famer--

1681
01:29:05,506 --> 01:29:07,775
-[Booker] You're the one who questions.
-[Vic] I'm not asking him anything.

1682
01:29:07,842 --> 01:29:09,610
They do believe, that being The Dyad,

1683
01:29:09,677 --> 01:29:12,880
that they are owed
the NXT Tag Team Championships.

1684
01:29:12,947 --> 01:29:15,616
You heard that from their own mouth
earlier tonight.

1685
01:29:15,683 --> 01:29:18,953
A win here as Chase U
trying to rally Andre Chase,

1686
01:29:19,020 --> 01:29:23,591
a win here, they're one step closer
going into Vengeance Day this Saturday.

1687
01:29:24,158 --> 01:29:26,761
Streaming live on WWE on Peacock

1688
01:29:26,828 --> 01:29:30,198
as Andre Chase right now
has been in this matchup for a long time.

1689
01:29:30,264 --> 01:29:32,600
You are a decorated tag team superstar.

1690
01:29:32,667 --> 01:29:36,738
You know Chase has gotta
get out of this ring in a hurry.

1691
01:29:36,804 --> 01:29:41,809
[Booker] Andre Chase, one thing about him,
he has a partner that is very capable

1692
01:29:41,876 --> 01:29:46,414
of getting the job done in Duke Hudson,
he just needs to do one thing, Vic.

1693
01:29:46,481 --> 01:29:48,750
He needs to make that tag.
He needs to do it quick.

1694
01:29:48,816 --> 01:29:52,186
[Vic] Oh, unable to make the tag
if he's not standing.

1695
01:29:52,253 --> 01:29:55,523
And Reid's turning right around
into a backdrop,

1696
01:29:55,590 --> 01:29:57,358
but no one is there for Chase.

1697
01:29:57,425 --> 01:29:59,627
-[Booker] Nobody home, Vic.
-[Vic] This one…

1698
01:29:59,694 --> 01:30:00,595
[audience chattering]

1699
01:30:00,661 --> 01:30:03,398
[Vic] Thea Hail's trying her best now…

1700
01:30:04,799 --> 01:30:06,667
not able to make the tag.

1701
01:30:06,734 --> 01:30:10,605
And quickly you saw Chase
able to sidestep Fowler.

1702
01:30:10,671 --> 01:30:11,606
This could be the moment.

1703
01:30:11,672 --> 01:30:15,943
If Chase doesn't wanna tag
Enofe and Blade, he's got no choice.

1704
01:30:16,010 --> 01:30:18,679
[Booker] Let me tell you something.
Andre Chase right now, he's crawling,

1705
01:30:18,746 --> 01:30:22,717
he's trying his best to make a tag,
but there's nobody home.

1706
01:30:22,784 --> 01:30:28,222
[Vic] The Dyad, systematically
right now, taking apart the field.

1707
01:30:28,289 --> 01:30:30,491
-[Booker] I said it, Vic.
-[Vic] Divide and conquer.

1708
01:30:30,558 --> 01:30:33,361
[Booker] I said it. If I was a big man,

1709
01:30:33,428 --> 01:30:38,099
I would put the house
on The Dyad here tonight.

1710
01:30:38,166 --> 01:30:41,302
Oh, that's it. Let's go home, Vic.
Let's go home.

1711
01:30:41,369 --> 01:30:44,105
[Vic] Big backstabber
and will it be a big win?

1712
01:30:44,172 --> 01:30:47,475
Chase kicked out.
We're not going home yet.

1713
01:30:47,542 --> 01:30:49,777
You're not gonna get
your skillet yet, Book.

1714
01:30:49,844 --> 01:30:53,748
-We still got a main event to go.
-[Booker] I was ready for some sea bass.

1715
01:30:53,815 --> 01:30:57,018
[audience chanting] Chase U!

1716
01:30:57,084 --> 01:31:00,221
[Vic] Take another look at the continuity.

1717
01:31:00,288 --> 01:31:05,560
Bam. A little bit of extra
from Reid and Fowler.

1718
01:31:05,626 --> 01:31:09,430
You're the hypocrite.
You're the joke. You're the fool.

1719
01:31:09,897 --> 01:31:11,032
[Vic] This is what I mean.

1720
01:31:11,098 --> 01:31:15,770
They're always barking at everybody,
but when someone barks back,

1721
01:31:15,837 --> 01:31:16,838
they can't handle it.

1722
01:31:16,904 --> 01:31:20,474
[Booker] I think The Dyad is just
being true as for Andre Chase being…

1723
01:31:20,541 --> 01:31:22,777
[Vic] Well, here's some truth.
Hudson's on his feet.

1724
01:31:22,844 --> 01:31:25,646
Hudson's tagged in. Duke Hudson is legal.

1725
01:31:25,713 --> 01:31:29,550
-[thuds]
-[Vic] And the Dukester's laying it down.

1726
01:31:29,617 --> 01:31:32,119
[Booker] I'm telling you,
this guy right here, he's a big guy,

1727
01:31:32,186 --> 01:31:35,356
and he can get the job done
in a heartbeat, Vic.

1728
01:31:35,423 --> 01:31:38,159
[Chase] Get out of here. Get him out, ref.

1729
01:31:38,226 --> 01:31:41,462
[audience cheering]

1730
01:31:41,529 --> 01:31:42,864
[thuds]

1731
01:31:42,930 --> 01:31:44,699
[Booker] He's rolling it now, Vic.

1732
01:31:44,765 --> 01:31:48,836
This is that shucky, ducky,
quack, quack, moment of the night.

1733
01:31:48,903 --> 01:31:52,673
[Vic] Hudson is doing it by himself
at this juncture.

1734
01:31:52,740 --> 01:31:54,141
-[grunts]
-[Vic] Oh!

1735
01:31:54,208 --> 01:31:56,177
-What a boot.
-[Booker] Wow.

1736
01:31:56,244 --> 01:32:00,147
With momentum, with force,
with intent, Vic.

1737
01:32:01,282 --> 01:32:02,450
[Vic] Hudson is legal.

1738
01:32:02,517 --> 01:32:03,818
[audience chanting] Let's go, Duke!

1739
01:32:03,885 --> 01:32:05,486
[Vic] Reid is legal.

1740
01:32:05,553 --> 01:32:08,422
[audience chanting] Let's go, Duke!

1741
01:32:08,489 --> 01:32:11,659
-You can hear the NXT universe is behind.
-[Booker] Wow!

1742
01:32:11,726 --> 01:32:13,561
-[Vic] What a German suplex.
-[Booker] Wow!

1743
01:32:13,628 --> 01:32:16,631
-[Vic] Chase U heading to so--
-One, two!

1744
01:32:16,697 --> 01:32:20,134
-[Booker] So close, so close.
-[Vic] Not quite yet.

1745
01:32:20,201 --> 01:32:25,673
[Booker] Don't kill the momentum, kid.
Keep it going. You got this.

1746
01:32:27,708 --> 01:32:30,811
[Vic] Hudson, tuning up the marching band.
Oh, tag was made.

1747
01:32:30,878 --> 01:32:34,148
-[Booker] Wow.
-[Vic] Blade is now legal.

1748
01:32:34,215 --> 01:32:35,883
Blade flying through the air.

1749
01:32:37,051 --> 01:32:41,455
And look how wise, how quick
Blade's turning around Hudson.

1750
01:32:41,522 --> 01:32:43,858
And now look how quick this has happened.

1751
01:32:43,925 --> 01:32:46,360
Blade and Enofe, Book,
they're the one standing.

1752
01:32:46,427 --> 01:32:48,262
Tag was made. Enofe is legal.

1753
01:32:48,329 --> 01:32:50,531
[Booker] That's what they need, Vic.
They need to go out here.

1754
01:32:50,598 --> 01:32:52,533
-[Vic] Reid's not moving.
-[Booker] They need to pull this off.

1755
01:32:52,600 --> 01:32:53,534
[Vic] Right elbow.

1756
01:32:53,601 --> 01:32:56,837
[Booker] Look, they're looking
good right now, Vic. Finish it.

1757
01:32:56,904 --> 01:32:59,941
[Vic] This could be that statement win
for Enofe and Blade.

1758
01:33:00,575 --> 01:33:06,180
Turning things up, turning things around,
taking Reid down into the cover.

1759
01:33:07,715 --> 01:33:14,288
Oh, everybody, at the last moment,
same thing on their mind to survive.

1760
01:33:14,355 --> 01:33:17,091
[Booker] Blade and Enofe
had the right idea.

1761
01:33:17,158 --> 01:33:20,528
[audience chanting] NXT!

1762
01:33:20,594 --> 01:33:24,565
[Vic] What action throughout
this main event matchup.

1763
01:33:24,632 --> 01:33:28,202
These three teams showing you
what it means to win this match,

1764
01:33:28,269 --> 01:33:30,671
what is means to head
to Charlotte Vengeance Day,

1765
01:33:30,738 --> 01:33:36,410
what it means to have the opportunity
to be called NXT Tag Team Champions.

1766
01:33:36,477 --> 01:33:42,717
[Booker] Talk about that last spot, Vic.
That last spot is so, so valuable.

1767
01:33:42,783 --> 01:33:45,853
Which one of these teams are gonna get it?
That's the question.

1768
01:33:45,920 --> 01:33:50,324
[Vic] Right now, all three of these teams
so deserving of that opportunity.

1769
01:33:50,391 --> 01:33:55,196
And, yes, that does mean The Dyad as Enofe
and Blade are the one standing.

1770
01:33:55,262 --> 01:33:57,131
And now, high-risk…

1771
01:33:57,198 --> 01:33:58,766
[audience cheering]

1772
01:33:58,833 --> 01:34:03,270
[Vic] What a reward.
Enofe and Blade, seize your moment.

1773
01:34:03,337 --> 01:34:06,340
[Booker] Throwing caution to the wind
right now, Vic.

1774
01:34:06,407 --> 01:34:10,778
Enofe and Blade looking to cash in
on perhaps the biggest win

1775
01:34:10,845 --> 01:34:11,979
of their young careers.

1776
01:34:12,046 --> 01:34:14,181
[audience chanting] This is awesome!

1777
01:34:14,248 --> 01:34:18,486
[Vic]
Oh, taking a little bit too much time.

1778
01:34:18,552 --> 01:34:22,957
And Reid able to cut Enofe off
at the pass.

1779
01:34:23,024 --> 01:34:27,028
Again, as we mentioned, how important
this matchup is to all these superstars.

1780
01:34:27,094 --> 01:34:28,696
As right now, Blade…

1781
01:34:30,798 --> 01:34:35,903
What is on the mind of Blade and Enofe?
There we see Fowler. Oh!

1782
01:34:35,970 --> 01:34:41,375
Making Blade pay for interfering.
Now, The Dyad, the team that is standing.

1783
01:34:41,442 --> 01:34:44,078
How about the pendulum
that has swung in momentum?

1784
01:34:44,145 --> 01:34:46,547
[Booker] In perfect position
to finish this thing.

1785
01:34:46,614 --> 01:34:47,548
-[Vic] Wait a minute.
-[Booker] Oh, no.

1786
01:34:47,615 --> 01:34:49,917
[Vic] Book, did you see?
Referee called tag.

1787
01:34:50,384 --> 01:34:53,754
Andre Chase is legal.

1788
01:34:54,555 --> 01:34:57,558
[Booker] The power of Andre Chase.

1789
01:34:58,959 --> 01:35:03,597
[audience chanting] Chase U!

1790
01:35:03,664 --> 01:35:06,067
-Give me a C.
-[audience] C!

1791
01:35:06,133 --> 01:35:07,234
-H.
-[audience] H!

1792
01:35:07,301 --> 01:35:08,302
-A.
-[audience] A!

1793
01:35:08,369 --> 01:35:09,637
-S.
-[audience] S!

1794
01:35:09,704 --> 01:35:11,205
-E.
-[audience] E!

1795
01:35:11,272 --> 01:35:12,506
-U.
-[audience] U!

1796
01:35:12,573 --> 01:35:14,642
-What's that spell?
-[audience] Chase U!

1797
01:35:14,709 --> 01:35:19,180
[Vic] Oh, we could be getting ready
for quite the party in the quad.

1798
01:35:19,246 --> 01:35:21,782
-Wait a minute.
-[Vic] What the hell's Ava Raine doing?

1799
01:35:21,849 --> 01:35:24,151
[audience chattering]

1800
01:35:24,218 --> 01:35:27,221
-[audience chanting] Thea!
-[Vic] Thea Hail.

1801
01:35:27,288 --> 01:35:31,292
[audience chanting] Thea!

1802
01:35:31,358 --> 01:35:35,496
[Vic] Reid doesn't know what to make
of what he just saw, turn it back around.

1803
01:35:35,563 --> 01:35:37,932
Oh, crash and burn. Hudson makes a tag.

1804
01:35:37,998 --> 01:35:39,800
-[Booker] Here comes the big man.
-[Vic] Duke Hudson's legal.

1805
01:35:39,867 --> 01:35:41,869
-[Booker] Here we go, Vic.
-[Vic] Hudson…

1806
01:35:43,704 --> 01:35:45,973
with Chase, Flatliner.

1807
01:35:46,507 --> 01:35:49,276
-Flatliner connects. Cover.
-[audience] One, two, three!

1808
01:35:49,343 --> 01:35:52,179
-[Vic] Chase U is headed to Charlotte.
-[bell ringing]

1809
01:35:52,246 --> 01:35:53,447
[Booker] Wow.

1810
01:35:53,514 --> 01:36:00,488
[Alicia] Here are your winners,
the team of Duke Hudson and Andre Chase.

1811
01:36:00,554 --> 01:36:06,360
[Vic] Andre Chase didn't know
what to make of Duke Hudson storming out.

1812
01:36:06,827 --> 01:36:11,899
Duke Hudson got this opportunity
for Andre Chase, Thea Hail,

1813
01:36:11,966 --> 01:36:14,101
and all those at Chase U.

1814
01:36:14,168 --> 01:36:18,038
And now, Chase University

1815
01:36:18,105 --> 01:36:22,777
days away, bang,
from a golden opportunity.

1816
01:36:22,843 --> 01:36:25,112
But this is really a game-changing moment.

1817
01:36:25,179 --> 01:36:29,583
Thea Hail doing what is right,
isolating Ava Raine.

1818
01:36:29,650 --> 01:36:36,590
Then, right here, the Flatliner connects,
sending Chase U to Charlotte.

1819
01:36:36,657 --> 01:36:40,628
[Booker] I told you, Duke Hudson,
what a game-changer.

1820
01:36:40,694 --> 01:36:46,734
-He's bought in, Vic. He's bought in 100%.
-[Vic] Are we looking at the…

1821
01:36:46,800 --> 01:36:52,740
Oh, Gallus boys believe
they're the team to be on top

1822
01:36:52,807 --> 01:36:56,977
because it is now a Fatal 4-Way match.
It is official.

1823
01:36:57,044 --> 01:37:00,948
There we see the field
for the NXT Tag Team titles.

1824
01:37:01,015 --> 01:37:04,185
Yeah, there we go.

1825
01:37:04,251 --> 01:37:05,553
-Give me a C.
-C.

1826
01:37:05,619 --> 01:37:06,720
-Give me an H.
-H.

1827
01:37:06,787 --> 01:37:07,755
-Give me an A.
-A.

1828
01:37:07,822 --> 01:37:09,190
Oh, you know the rest, you know the rest.

1829
01:37:09,256 --> 01:37:13,727
-Chase U. Congratulations, you did it.
-Congratulations.

1830
01:37:13,794 --> 01:37:15,963
This win means
that you're gonna Vengeance Day.

1831
01:37:16,030 --> 01:37:19,700
-So, Chase U, we're gonna see you.
-And, Gallus, we're gonna see you.

1832
01:37:19,767 --> 01:37:24,972
Pretty Deadly, of course, of course,
we're gonna see you, unfortunately.

1833
01:37:25,039 --> 01:37:28,509
That's right.
We're going to Vengeance Day.

1834
01:37:28,576 --> 01:37:30,945
[inaudible]

1835
01:37:31,011 --> 01:37:32,947
-Congrats.
-Yay.

1836
01:37:33,013 --> 01:37:36,050
Put 'em together for Chase U, yeah.

1837
01:37:36,116 --> 01:37:37,117
[laughs]

1838
01:37:37,184 --> 01:37:39,119
["Accomplished" music playing]

1839
01:37:39,186 --> 01:37:41,188
[Vic] Well, Chase U certainly…

1840
01:37:41,989 --> 01:37:45,426
controls their destiny this week.

1841
01:37:45,492 --> 01:37:48,395
What a tag team matchup that will be.

1842
01:37:48,462 --> 01:37:53,000
But it's the most anticipated event
in the history of NXT.

1843
01:37:53,067 --> 01:37:59,073
The bar will get raised yet again
in Charlotte on Saturday at Vengeance Day.

1844
01:38:02,743 --> 01:38:06,714
[narrator] On Saturday, February 4th,
NXT Vengeance Dayis gonna come live

1845
01:38:06,780 --> 01:38:09,416
from the Spectrum Center
in Charlotte, North Carolina.

1846
01:38:09,984 --> 01:38:13,487
Huge breaking news today. There's
so much happening in the NXT world.

1847
01:38:13,554 --> 01:38:16,857
NXT, having a premium live event
coming to Charlotte.

1848
01:38:16,924 --> 01:38:19,727
NXT is going on the road.

1849
01:38:19,793 --> 01:38:22,062
It's particularly a huge event
for all of them here.

1850
01:38:22,129 --> 01:38:23,864

01:38:32,373 --> 01:38:33,707
they're live, they're off the chart.

1855
01:38:33,774 --> 01:38:35,609
[Hayes] Listen, they need
to feel that energy in Charlotte.

1856
01:38:35,676 --> 01:38:37,478
That's what we're planning on doing.

1861
01:38:50,457 --> 01:38:53,460
steel cage match in the main event
for the NXT Championship.

1862
01:38:53,527 --> 01:38:55,596
Because Grayson Waller is the main event.

1863
01:38:56,163 --> 01:38:58,565
I'm sorry, but you're not gonna
see a wrestling match.

1864
01:38:58,632 --> 01:39:00,367
[Breakker] You're gonna see
an absolute ass-beating

1865
01:39:00,434 --> 01:39:03,470
because that's exactly
what this guy has coming to him.

1866
01:39:03,537 --> 01:39:06,473
Finally, after all this time,
the Grayson Waller era…

1867
01:39:08,008 --> 01:39:08,842
truly begins.

1868
01:39:10,511 --> 01:39:14,915
Roxanne, your days as champion are over.

1869
01:39:22,189 --> 01:39:24,325
All odds are against me.

1870
01:39:24,391 --> 01:39:28,095
Gigi Dolin, Jacy Jayne, and Roxanne Perez

1871
01:39:28,162 --> 01:39:31,699
for the NXT Women's Championship.

1872
01:39:33,033 --> 01:39:35,569
[Crews] Seeing on TV is one thing.
When you get to see the superstars live,

1873
01:39:35,636 --> 01:39:37,137
it's a completely different thing.

1874
01:39:37,204 --> 01:39:39,473
I'm excited to get to experience that.

1875
01:39:39,540 --> 01:39:41,909
Apollo Crews, at the Spectrum Center.

1876
01:39:41,976 --> 01:39:46,213
I shoot on the logo,
and it's nothing but net. Swish

1877
01:39:46,280 --> 01:39:50,884
I get it. I understand the passion,
the desire because I'm the exact same.

1878
01:39:50,951 --> 01:39:54,021
How about on Vengeance Day
we go 2 out of 3 falls?

1879
01:39:54,521 --> 01:39:55,990
I'll see y'all boys in Charlotte.

1880
01:39:56,790 --> 01:39:59,827
You feel like this is finally getting back
to the whole reason

1881
01:39:59,893 --> 01:40:01,562
they got into this line of work,

1882
01:40:01,628 --> 01:40:04,732
which is to show their skill
around the world.

1883
01:40:04,798 --> 01:40:07,901

the next generation flourish.

1888
01:40:20,381 --> 01:40:23,951
The entire NXT brand
has been on absolute fire.

1889
01:40:24,018 --> 01:40:27,521
[Waller] Now, it's time to show the world
exactly what we can do.

1890
01:40:27,588 --> 01:40:29,690
We start with Charlotte, North Carolina.

1891
01:40:30,457 --> 01:40:31,525
NXT Vengeance Day.

1892
01:40:31,592 --> 01:40:34,361

01:40:37,664 --> 01:40:42,069
I keep telling people that I run NXT.
And now, everyone's gonna see it.

1895
01:40:42,136 --> 01:40:43,670
What matters is this.

1896
01:40:43,737 --> 01:40:46,507
Are you ready
to see a new champion?
