by Carmelo Hayes,

00:09:56,596 --> 00:10:01,300
The following is a mixed tag team match
scheduled for one fall.

182
00:10:01,367 --> 00:10:06,305
Introducing first, representing Schism,
the team of Ava and the Dyad.

183
00:10:06,772 --> 00:10:10,343
What a way to kick off NXT tonight,
first with Baron Corbin,

184
00:10:10,409 --> 00:10:14,714
but it is going to be a busy night
for Schism.

185
00:10:15,047 --> 00:10:18,317
Joe Gacy will meet
Mustafa Ali later tonight.

186
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:23,856
Right now we're getting set
for six-person tag team action.

187
00:10:24,290 --> 00:10:28,294
Schism taking on the Creeds and Ivy Nile.

188
00:10:28,728 --> 00:10:33,199
These combustible elements set
to explode next live on NXT.

189
00:10:35,768 --> 00:10:36,936
How's that feel? Huh?

190
00:10:37,003 --> 00:10:38,771
Booker, an intense situation
during the break.

191
00:10:38,838 --> 00:10:41,540
You keep thinking that you're the most
intense guy around, huh?

192
00:10:41,607 --> 00:10:42,441
You like pain?

193
00:10:42,808 --> 00:10:43,876
How's that pain feel?

194
00:10:43,943 --> 00:10:45,011
Huh? Back up.

195
00:10:45,077 --> 00:10:47,646
Back up, Bron. Back up, Bron.

196
00:10:47,713 --> 00:10:48,614
Get out of here.

197
00:10:48,681 --> 00:10:49,515
You made your point.

198
00:10:49,582 --> 00:10:50,416
Let's go.

199
00:10:50,483 --> 00:10:51,317
Let's go.

200
00:10:51,384 --> 00:10:52,218
Get out of here.

201
00:10:52,284 --> 00:10:53,719
Ilja, are you okay?

202
00:10:53,786 --> 00:10:55,121
[Diamond mine's music plays]

203
00:10:55,187 --> 00:10:56,055
What was that?

204
00:10:56,122 --> 00:10:58,124
He's never met breakker.

205
00:10:58,190 --> 00:11:01,060
Bron Breakker showing
a new side of himself.

206
00:11:01,127 --> 00:11:01,961
Yes.

207
00:11:04,263 --> 00:11:07,133
Introducing the team of Ivy Nile

208
00:11:07,199 --> 00:11:11,737
and the Creed brothers, Diamond mine.

209
00:11:11,804 --> 00:11:14,273
We got to focus on the here and the now.

210
00:11:14,340 --> 00:11:17,009
Six-person mixed tag team matchup.

211
00:11:17,076 --> 00:11:18,344
Let's call it what it is.

212
00:11:18,944 --> 00:11:19,979
You said it for weeks.

213
00:11:20,413 --> 00:11:23,616
You think Ivy Nile should have minded
her own business

214
00:11:23,683 --> 00:11:26,218
and not worried herself with Ava.

215
00:11:26,285 --> 00:11:28,020
I didn't say that. I didn't say that.

216
00:11:28,087 --> 00:11:29,789
You did say that. Put the tape back.

217
00:11:29,855 --> 00:11:31,957
Look, I'm a mind-your-business
type of guy,

218
00:11:32,024 --> 00:11:37,029
Vic, but anything involving
the creed brothers is business that

219
00:11:37,096 --> 00:11:39,198
concerns Ivy Nile, okay?

220
00:11:39,265 --> 00:11:40,199
Let's just say that.

221
00:11:40,266 --> 00:11:42,768
Let me put it out there and make it
plain and clear.

222
00:11:42,835 --> 00:11:46,539
You sound like one
of these internet marks.

223
00:11:47,540 --> 00:11:48,841
What's that supposed to mean?

224
00:11:48,908 --> 00:11:50,776
You want to be a-- we'll just move on,

225
00:11:50,843 --> 00:11:52,044
book, before you get-- [bell rings]

226
00:11:52,111 --> 00:11:53,245
You want to be a reporter.

227
00:11:53,312 --> 00:11:55,548
-All I'm saying is you said it.
-You want to be a journalist.

228
00:11:57,016 --> 00:12:01,187
Well, no doubt the NXT
universe behind the Creed Brothers,

229
00:12:01,253 --> 00:12:03,689
Ivy Nile, Diamond mine here tonight.

230
00:12:03,756 --> 00:12:05,191
Have you seen the creed's tiktoks,
by the way?

231
00:12:06,058 --> 00:12:08,027
You and I should do a collab on tiktok.

232
00:12:08,094 --> 00:12:10,563
I did see the tiktok video,
and let me tell you,

233
00:12:10,629 --> 00:12:12,998
the strength of Brutus is very impressive.

234
00:12:13,065 --> 00:12:15,367
Unbelievable strength of that young man.

235
00:12:15,735 --> 00:12:16,836
Oh, nice.

236
00:12:16,902 --> 00:12:18,604
Julius is not so bad himself.
Did you see that?

237
00:12:18,938 --> 00:12:23,042
These issues between these two teams
have been bubbling for months.

238
00:12:23,809 --> 00:12:25,778
When you take a look
at everybody in a whole--

239
00:12:25,845 --> 00:12:27,680
Before you even make that point,

240
00:12:27,747 --> 00:12:29,448
-let me just say this.
-Go ahead.

241
00:12:29,515 --> 00:12:31,951
Let me put it out there just
to make it come to fruition.

242
00:12:32,017 --> 00:12:35,020
The creed brothers,
they are future world tag team champions.

243
00:12:35,087 --> 00:12:37,957
Multi-time world tag team champions.

244
00:12:38,023 --> 00:12:39,892
They're going to be a dynasty one day.

245
00:12:39,959 --> 00:12:42,895
I just want to put that out there
just to make it come to fruition.

246
00:12:42,962 --> 00:12:46,132
A tag was made and now Reid in,
and Reid picking his spot.

247
00:12:46,298 --> 00:12:48,601
This is what the Dyad
does better than anyone.

248
00:12:48,868 --> 00:12:50,169
Seek and destroy.

249
00:12:50,236 --> 00:12:53,139
Whoa, swing and a miss,
and there's some of that amateur

250
00:12:53,205 --> 00:12:55,741
background of Julius coming into play.
What I wanted to get to is,

251
00:12:55,808 --> 00:12:58,711
are the Creeds and Dyad,
is this a classic case of positioning in

252
00:12:58,778 --> 00:13:01,847
what has become a very crowded
tag team division here in NXT? [laughs]

253
00:13:01,914 --> 00:13:06,318
Not to put myself over,
but I am a tag team specialist.

254
00:13:06,385 --> 00:13:09,555
15 tag team championships, five partners.

255
00:13:09,622 --> 00:13:11,457
Yes, I look at these two teams, Vic,

256
00:13:11,524 --> 00:13:14,860
and I see a lot of similarities
and they're jockeying for position.

257
00:13:14,927 --> 00:13:16,729
It's all about the gold, Vic.

258
00:13:16,795 --> 00:13:19,465
It's all about checks and
it's all about championships.

259
00:13:19,932 --> 00:13:22,701
There is a tag, and now Brutus
making his way in,

260
00:13:22,768 --> 00:13:24,904
and you talked about
the strength of both Creeds.

261
00:13:24,970 --> 00:13:25,805
[crowd chants "creed"]

262
00:13:25,871 --> 00:13:28,874
Just take a look at the damage being done.

263
00:13:28,941 --> 00:13:31,877
Again, this is a mixed tag team match.

264
00:13:31,944 --> 00:13:32,778
Oh, wow.

265
00:13:32,845 --> 00:13:35,181
If Ivy Nile were to tag in,
that means Ava would have to

266
00:13:35,247 --> 00:13:36,081
come into the matchup.

267
00:13:37,049 --> 00:13:39,118
Big shot there by Brutus,

268
00:13:39,185 --> 00:13:42,488
controlling and maintaining this
matchup right here.

269
00:13:42,555 --> 00:13:46,258
Isolating the Dyad right now, Vic.

270
00:13:49,795 --> 00:13:50,629
Wow.

271
00:13:50,696 --> 00:13:53,566
Stumbling back, Julius got rocked by Reid.

272
00:13:54,433 --> 00:13:56,769
Got an equilibrium shot right there, Vic.

273
00:13:56,836 --> 00:13:58,270
Got caught right behind the ear.

274
00:13:58,337 --> 00:14:00,272
Oh, Booker, you had
mentioned the strength.

275
00:14:00,339 --> 00:14:02,174
We've seen this in the past.

276
00:14:02,241 --> 00:14:03,609
He's not going to be able to do this.

277
00:14:03,676 --> 00:14:04,944
There's not way he's going to do this.

278
00:14:05,010 --> 00:14:06,512
-Whoa.
-You've got to be kidding me.

279
00:14:06,579 --> 00:14:07,413
Wow.

280
00:14:09,081 --> 00:14:11,016
[crowd cheers]

281
00:14:12,017 --> 00:14:14,720
It's not football season yet,
but here comes a handoff.

282
00:14:14,787 --> 00:14:16,789
Vic, you're talking about a tiktok video.

283
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:21,026
This right here is going to
be going viral here pretty soon, man.

284
00:14:26,932 --> 00:14:28,467
Julius just tagged himself back in.

285
00:14:28,534 --> 00:14:30,002
You're a tag team specialist.

286
00:14:30,069 --> 00:14:31,537
You ever try to pull
something like this off?

287
00:14:31,604 --> 00:14:32,705
This is different, man.

288
00:14:32,771 --> 00:14:34,673
These young guys being able to innovate.

289
00:14:34,740 --> 00:14:35,574
Unbelievable.

290
00:14:35,641 --> 00:14:37,276
With the strength, like I said,
the creed brothers,

291
00:14:37,343 --> 00:14:38,877
these guys, they got a hell of a future.

292
00:14:38,944 --> 00:14:40,646
Look at right there, we're doing reps.

293
00:14:40,713 --> 00:14:41,680
We're doing reps right now, Vic.

294
00:14:41,747 --> 00:14:42,781
[laughs]

295
00:14:42,848 --> 00:14:43,682
Finally.

296
00:14:44,083 --> 00:14:45,117
Wow.

297
00:14:45,184 --> 00:14:48,420
[crowd cheers]

298
00:14:49,788 --> 00:14:53,492
Unreal strength from the Creeds,
and Julius right back in.

299
00:14:55,628 --> 00:14:57,930
This's the point you start feeling bad
for Jagger Reid.

300
00:14:57,997 --> 00:15:00,065
As we mentioned, still to come in
the main event, number one

301
00:15:00,132 --> 00:15:02,301
-contender's battle royal.
-Whoa, look at

302
00:15:02,368 --> 00:15:03,435
the balance of this young man.

303
00:15:03,502 --> 00:15:04,870
--to face Tiffany Stratton?

304
00:15:04,937 --> 00:15:07,172
Bam, and what a dropkick
right on the button.

305
00:15:09,541 --> 00:15:11,443
You said the NXT universe was fired up.

306
00:15:11,510 --> 00:15:13,445
They are very vocal here tonight.

307
00:15:13,846 --> 00:15:16,415
Oh, that's one way to slow
down one of the Creeds.

308
00:15:16,982 --> 00:15:20,119
A tag made, Ava is legal-- here we go, Vic.

309
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,622
Which now means Ivy Nile has
to come into the matchup.

310
00:15:23,689 --> 00:15:24,657
Oh, yes.

311
00:15:29,228 --> 00:15:30,796
This is what Nile has been waiting for.

312
00:15:30,863 --> 00:15:33,899
You could make the argument
that Nile would've beaten Cora Jade

313
00:15:33,966 --> 00:15:36,835
if not for Ava who tags out.

314
00:15:36,902 --> 00:15:38,737
[crowd boos]

315
00:15:40,005 --> 00:15:41,974
All the way out.

316
00:15:43,342 --> 00:15:44,243
Come on, Vic.

317
00:15:44,543 --> 00:15:47,680
-What do you mean, "come on?"
-She tagged herself into the matchup.

318
00:15:47,746 --> 00:15:51,450
Come on, you need to wake up
as far as you're thinking about old stuff.

319
00:15:51,517 --> 00:15:54,820
I don't think Ivy Nile is thinking--

320
00:15:54,887 --> 00:15:58,023
if the champions thought about what
happened yesterday,

321
00:15:58,090 --> 00:15:59,925
they would never become champion, Vic.

322
00:15:59,992 --> 00:16:02,027
Well, a tag was made. Brutus is now legal.

323
00:16:02,094 --> 00:16:06,198
Fowler doesn't realize it,
and from the top, double axe handle.

324
00:16:06,265 --> 00:16:07,733
Big shot there by Brutus.

325
00:16:10,436 --> 00:16:16,742
Nice counter and now--
how'd he land on his-- a man his size

326
00:16:18,310 --> 00:16:20,446
and now can he hoist him up?

327
00:16:21,146 --> 00:16:22,181
Oh.

328
00:16:24,350 --> 00:16:25,718
Moonsault connects.

329
00:16:25,784 --> 00:16:27,519
Power, strength, agility.

330
00:16:27,586 --> 00:16:28,420
Tag.

331
00:16:28,487 --> 00:16:32,291
It just tells me, Vic, those guys
aren't just creating tiktok videos.

332
00:16:32,358 --> 00:16:34,493
What the-- that was one of
the training moves they actually

333
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,895
-did on the tiktok video right there.
-Wait a minute.

334
00:16:36,962 --> 00:16:38,564
Oh, yes.

335
00:16:38,630 --> 00:16:39,465
[crowd cheers]

336
00:16:39,531 --> 00:16:41,333
Nile just suplexed Brutus.

337
00:16:45,170 --> 00:16:46,238
This is unreal.

338
00:16:46,305 --> 00:16:47,806
We're getting busy in here.

339
00:16:51,243 --> 00:16:53,379
Diamond mine is rolling.

340
00:16:57,282 --> 00:16:58,784
Back live on NXT.

341
00:16:58,851 --> 00:17:00,853
Six-person tag team matchup.

342
00:17:00,919 --> 00:17:04,690
Schism has been in control
for the last few moments,

343
00:17:04,757 --> 00:17:08,527
but during the break everything was
coming up diamond mine including this

344
00:17:08,594 --> 00:17:14,800
big ive dive wiping out the field,
but since it's been all Schism.

345
00:17:14,867 --> 00:17:16,001
Yes, Vic.

346
00:17:16,068 --> 00:17:19,905
Right now the Schism in total control
of this matchup.

347
00:17:19,972 --> 00:17:22,875
Isolating Brutus right now, Vic.

348
00:17:25,677 --> 00:17:29,648
Brutus trying to rally off
the NXT universe-- big shot.

349
00:17:29,715 --> 00:17:31,383
But Fowler right to the stomach.

350
00:17:31,450 --> 00:17:34,420
Oh, and then what a forearm under the jaw,

351
00:17:34,486 --> 00:17:38,090
and Brutus a long way away
from his brother and Ivy Nile.

352
00:17:38,157 --> 00:17:40,359
Let me tell you,
I'd rather take a shot to the jaw

353
00:17:40,426 --> 00:17:42,161
than that kidney shot right there, Vic.

354
00:17:42,227 --> 00:17:44,830
Just knocks all the air right out of you,
but right now Brutus

355
00:17:44,897 --> 00:17:45,998
is fighting back.

356
00:17:46,065 --> 00:17:49,968
Brutus doing his-- again,
this is textbook dyad.

357
00:17:50,035 --> 00:17:53,539
That's textbook tag team work
is what that is, Vic.

358
00:17:53,605 --> 00:17:56,475
-What are you talking about?
-What a cheap shot from Ava.

359
00:17:56,542 --> 00:17:57,576
[crowd boos] That's it, man.

360
00:17:57,643 --> 00:17:59,678
Referee starting
to lose a little control here.

361
00:17:59,745 --> 00:18:02,314
I don't blame him.
You can't really step up to the Schism.

362
00:18:02,381 --> 00:18:06,118
Miscommunication right there
and the dyad is in-- oh, man,

363
00:18:06,185 --> 00:18:08,987
they're working like
a well-oiled machine, Vic.

364
00:18:09,054 --> 00:18:10,923
-Oh, yes.
-Here we go.

365
00:18:11,390 --> 00:18:12,991
-That could be the knockout blow.
-That's it.

366
00:18:13,058 --> 00:18:14,593
-Into the cover for Reid.
-That's it, Vic.

367
00:18:14,660 --> 00:18:16,862
A big kick out from Brutus.

368
00:18:20,299 --> 00:18:22,835
Talk about the action tonight
when it comes to Schism.

369
00:18:22,901 --> 00:18:26,038
Joe Gacy in action against
Mustafa Ali later tonight.

370
00:18:26,105 --> 00:18:28,841
What a matchup that will be,
and then, how about this?

371
00:18:28,907 --> 00:18:32,444
I'm being told it is official now,
Trick Williams, after what

372
00:18:32,511 --> 00:18:37,416
we saw, is going to face
Baron Corbin one-on-one.

373
00:18:37,483 --> 00:18:41,520
What a showdown that's going
to be here live on NXT as this

374
00:18:41,587 --> 00:18:44,256
six-person mixed tag team match continues.

375
00:18:44,323 --> 00:18:46,558
[crowd clapping] It has been all dyad.

376
00:18:47,893 --> 00:18:50,295
We've talked about Ava a few times.

377
00:18:50,362 --> 00:18:53,999
She has taken over some sort of power
in Schism,

378
00:18:54,066 --> 00:18:56,368
but look at the power of Brutus.

379
00:18:56,902 --> 00:18:58,804
Big suplex. Wow.

380
00:18:58,871 --> 00:19:01,173
Booker, this has to
be the moment for Brutus.

381
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:02,407
He's got to make the tag.

382
00:19:02,474 --> 00:19:05,611
Reid, though, able to get into the matchup

383
00:19:05,677 --> 00:19:07,779
and then trying to take down Brutus,

384
00:19:07,846 --> 00:19:09,882
and this is one way to take down a
larger opponent.

385
00:19:09,948 --> 00:19:12,885
When we're talking about two tag teams
that are jockeying for position,

386
00:19:12,951 --> 00:19:15,554
that's looking for that spot,
that next spot,

387
00:19:15,621 --> 00:19:18,056
we're talking about moving
up the ladder, man.

388
00:19:20,993 --> 00:19:24,730
Brutus is trying to move closer
to his corner,

389
00:19:24,796 --> 00:19:28,867
closer to his brother with
Reid on his back.

390
00:19:29,034 --> 00:19:30,135
Makes the tag.

391
00:19:30,202 --> 00:19:32,204
I don't think Reid thought Brutus
could have enough in him.

392
00:19:32,271 --> 00:19:33,839
Oh, here we go.

393
00:19:33,906 --> 00:19:37,409
Man, that's a big guy right there,
that Julius.

394
00:19:37,476 --> 00:19:39,578
Oh, beautiful belly-to-belly there.

395
00:19:39,645 --> 00:19:41,280
We're going crazy, Vic.

396
00:19:46,985 --> 00:19:48,787
Overhead toss.

397
00:19:48,854 --> 00:19:50,289
One more?

398
00:19:51,356 --> 00:19:52,491
Stopped.

399
00:19:52,558 --> 00:19:53,492
Oh, wait a minute.

400
00:19:53,559 --> 00:19:55,661
-No way.
-Two for one special.

401
00:19:55,727 --> 00:19:56,662
[crowd cheers] Wow.

402
00:19:56,728 --> 00:19:59,064
These guys have been training, Vic.

403
00:19:59,131 --> 00:20:04,002
Like I said, future world multi-time world
tag team champions

404
00:20:04,069 --> 00:20:05,437
we're looking at here.

405
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,742
Big moonsault wipes out the dyad.

406
00:20:11,810 --> 00:20:13,645
We've talked about combustible elements,

407
00:20:13,712 --> 00:20:16,081
these six were brawling last week.

408
00:20:16,148 --> 00:20:19,918
Bringing it into this six-person tag team
matchup, and you know

409
00:20:19,985 --> 00:20:23,322
the creed brothers, you know Ivy Nile,
they want to win in the worst way,

410
00:20:23,388 --> 00:20:26,158
but so do the Dyad, Ava, and Schism.

411
00:20:26,225 --> 00:20:30,829
I'll tell you right now, Joe Gacy got them
on point tonight right now.

412
00:20:30,896 --> 00:20:33,065
This is an even matchup
any way you look at it.

413
00:20:33,131 --> 00:20:34,866
Right now it's 50-50.

414
00:20:34,933 --> 00:20:36,134
Brutus ball connecting.

415
00:20:36,201 --> 00:20:37,469
Whoa, yes.

416
00:20:37,536 --> 00:20:40,939
Heads up from Julius to realize
what was going on,

417
00:20:41,006 --> 00:20:42,474
but Reid answers back.

418
00:20:42,874 --> 00:20:44,676
All four men down,

419
00:20:44,743 --> 00:20:47,412
but look at the two that are standing.

420
00:20:48,447 --> 00:20:51,817
Yes.

421
00:20:51,883 --> 00:20:55,120
Ava not so sure at this point, but Ivy is.

422
00:20:55,187 --> 00:20:56,588
Reaching out.

423
00:20:57,222 --> 00:21:00,959
Oh, this is what Nile
has been waiting for.

424
00:21:01,026 --> 00:21:02,361
Chomping at the bit.

425
00:21:09,968 --> 00:21:12,137
These two meeting
right center of the ring.

426
00:21:12,204 --> 00:21:15,107
All the bad blood that has boiled,

427
00:21:15,173 --> 00:21:18,243
all the tension that has
rised for this moment.

428
00:21:18,844 --> 00:21:22,881
All the times Ivy's had to stand by
and watch Ava stick her nose

429
00:21:22,948 --> 00:21:23,882
in others' business.

430
00:21:23,949 --> 00:21:25,250
It doesn't sit well with Nile.

431
00:21:27,919 --> 00:21:30,822
Nile bringing it to Ava right in-- oh.

432
00:21:30,889 --> 00:21:33,258
-Man, walked right into that.
-Ava stinging like a

433
00:21:33,325 --> 00:21:35,861
scorpion and now showcasing the-- oh,

434
00:21:35,927 --> 00:21:36,962
whoa, whoa, whoa.

435
00:21:37,529 --> 00:21:38,830
Is Ava going to tap?

436
00:21:39,464 --> 00:21:40,799
Oh, wait a minute.

437
00:21:40,866 --> 00:21:41,700
What?

438
00:21:41,767 --> 00:21:43,302
[crowd cheers]

439
00:21:43,368 --> 00:21:48,173
Cinching in, but it doesn't matter.

440
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,244
Nile and this rules of this matchup
can only face Ava.

441
00:21:52,311 --> 00:21:53,879
Ava's up.

442
00:21:53,945 --> 00:21:55,080
Oh, big shot.

443
00:21:55,547 --> 00:21:58,617
Big shot with the mask.

444
00:21:58,684 --> 00:21:59,885
The referee didn't see.

445
00:21:59,951 --> 00:22:02,054
[bell rings]
Vic, what are you talking about?

446
00:22:02,120 --> 00:22:03,221
Wait a minute.

447
00:22:03,288 --> 00:22:04,423
[Schism's music plays]

448
00:22:04,489 --> 00:22:07,826
Here are you winners, Schism.

449
00:22:08,927 --> 00:22:11,296
[crowd boos]

450
00:22:11,363 --> 00:22:13,732
You didn't see Ava pulled a mask out
of the ring?

451
00:22:13,799 --> 00:22:15,867
I missed that, Vic. I missed it.

452
00:22:15,934 --> 00:22:17,936
I must have been disposed
there for a second.

453
00:22:18,003 --> 00:22:21,640
The referee was getting Jagger Reid
out of the match.

454
00:22:21,707 --> 00:22:23,108
Let's go back to the replay.

455
00:22:23,175 --> 00:22:25,043
The referee explaining nothing can happen.

456
00:22:25,110 --> 00:22:26,678
Take a look right there, book.

457
00:22:26,745 --> 00:22:27,913
Look at the face pf Ava.

458
00:22:27,979 --> 00:22:29,214
Oh, yes.

459
00:22:29,781 --> 00:22:35,153
The referee didn't see what took place,
and Schism, like the

460
00:22:35,220 --> 00:22:40,158
snakes they are, slither away
with a victory tonight.

461
00:22:44,830 --> 00:22:49,368
For stacks, he recently
had a visit to the Don of NXT.

462
00:22:49,434 --> 00:22:51,103
We are inevitable.

463
00:23:00,645 --> 00:23:02,647
D, there's my guy.

464
00:23:06,251 --> 00:23:07,486
D, how you been?

465
00:23:07,552 --> 00:23:08,453
I'm good.

466
00:23:08,987 --> 00:23:11,590
Hey, get a load of this,
knuckles is in here.

467
00:23:12,324 --> 00:23:13,158
Wait, knuckles?

468
00:23:13,225 --> 00:23:14,059
Yes.

469
00:23:14,126 --> 00:23:15,660
-He's the one who did that thing?
-Oh.

470
00:23:17,896 --> 00:23:18,730
I mean, come on.

471
00:23:18,797 --> 00:23:20,065
The guy makes a mean steak.

472
00:23:20,465 --> 00:23:23,068
Jojo the whale,
he gets me my paper every morning.

473
00:23:23,135 --> 00:23:26,505
Listen to this, the guards,
they got me a subscription to peacock

474
00:23:26,905 --> 00:23:29,441
-so I can watch it the next day.
-Peacock?

475
00:23:29,908 --> 00:23:31,943
-Being the Don has some benefits.
-Yes.

476
00:23:32,410 --> 00:23:35,847
It's almost like being out there, almost.

477
00:23:36,681 --> 00:23:38,817
Do we have any more
information on this rat?

478
00:23:39,384 --> 00:23:40,719
I put a few calls into Kim K.

479
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:42,921
Kardashian?

480
00:23:42,988 --> 00:23:44,122
Kardashian.

481
00:23:44,189 --> 00:23:45,957
She's going to get an innocent people off.

482
00:23:47,659 --> 00:23:48,493
[laughs]

483
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,295
Stacks, you got to reword that.

484
00:23:50,362 --> 00:23:53,365
Listen, I got to be honest,
I don't know how I feel,

485
00:23:53,598 --> 00:23:56,835
with my life in the hands
of Kim kardashian.

486
00:23:56,902 --> 00:23:57,736
Right?

487
00:23:58,403 --> 00:24:00,238
I mean, I might as well play the lottery.

488
00:24:01,540 --> 00:24:04,743
My gut says it's gallus because they
didn't want to face us at battleground.

489
00:24:04,810 --> 00:24:07,212
Here's the thing, Don,
we got a lot of enemies.

490
00:24:07,279 --> 00:24:09,681
Could be the legatos',
maybe Garboni's crew.

491
00:24:10,048 --> 00:24:11,516
Will you listen to yourself?

492
00:24:11,917 --> 00:24:13,418
You're on a wild goose chase.

493
00:24:13,485 --> 00:24:15,787
You're traveling the
world to go next door.

494
00:24:15,854 --> 00:24:17,122
It's gallus.

495
00:24:17,189 --> 00:24:18,190
Trust your gut.

496
00:24:18,256 --> 00:24:20,759
Listen, you're going to take
those scumbags for everything

497
00:24:20,826 --> 00:24:23,995
because when I get out, I swear on
my mother's eyes, I'm going--

498
00:24:26,832 --> 00:24:27,666
all right.

499
00:24:28,233 --> 00:24:32,204
Well, listen, what Coffey did last week,
forget about it,

500
00:24:32,504 --> 00:24:34,005
but you got to be smart about this.

501
00:24:34,072 --> 00:24:35,807
Three on one ain't going to cut it.

502
00:24:36,274 --> 00:24:37,642
What do you want me to do, Don?

503
00:24:38,610 --> 00:24:39,978
Time's up, d'Angelo.

504
00:24:40,946 --> 00:24:42,047
All right, I'm coming.

505
00:24:43,315 --> 00:24:45,884
Listen, this is why you're the underboss.

506
00:24:46,284 --> 00:24:47,185
Figure it out.

507
00:24:54,693 --> 00:24:58,964
Smart moves in WWE is brought to you
by progressive.

508
00:24:59,030 --> 00:25:02,601
Protect more and you could save more
when you bundle with progressive.

509
00:25:04,069 --> 00:25:09,107
I have wreaked havoc on
NXT women's division for months.

510
00:25:12,377 --> 00:25:17,682
This Tuesday, I will reveal myself.

511
00:25:25,724 --> 00:25:27,893
It's Blair Davenport.

512
00:25:28,793 --> 00:25:32,264
You have never stepped in the ring
with anybody like me.

513
00:25:32,964 --> 00:25:38,003
I'm what you get when gothic charisma
meets cold-hearted fury.

514
00:25:38,470 --> 00:25:45,443
Blair Davenport is the rightful heir
to the NXT women's championship.

515
00:25:51,483 --> 00:25:54,452
It's true, the people just can't
get enough of Booker T.

516
00:25:54,519 --> 00:25:55,353
Oh, yes.

517
00:25:55,420 --> 00:25:57,389
It's WWE superstar Sunday.

518
00:25:57,455 --> 00:26:00,358
Don't miss your boy live on A&E, man.

519
00:26:00,425 --> 00:26:02,193
While you're searching for treasures,

520
00:26:02,260 --> 00:26:06,598
Mr. Stone is still searching on
how to help Von Wagner.

521
00:26:11,236 --> 00:26:14,973
[foot tapping]

522
00:26:18,810 --> 00:26:21,780
Von, I really hope
this therapist works out

523
00:26:21,846 --> 00:26:24,883
because we have had quite
the week trying to find the right one.

524
00:26:27,218 --> 00:26:30,221
Okay, Von, we can skip
the breathing exercise.

525
00:26:30,789 --> 00:26:33,158
Why don't you tell me
about your anger problem?

526
00:26:33,758 --> 00:26:35,360
I don't have some anger problem.

527
00:26:35,427 --> 00:26:38,063
Anger management is
nothing to be ashamed of.

528
00:26:38,129 --> 00:26:40,098
Learning to control it
can actually help you.

529
00:26:40,165 --> 00:26:41,433
Why don't we talk about it?

530
00:26:41,499 --> 00:26:43,268
Go -- yourself.

531
00:26:45,870 --> 00:26:46,972
Do you accept cash?

532
00:26:47,305 --> 00:26:48,707
Yes, I do.

533
00:26:48,773 --> 00:26:51,076
Stone, that guy was a jackass.

534
00:26:51,142 --> 00:26:52,811
And the other guy?

535
00:26:54,179 --> 00:26:55,547
You think I have a problem?

536
00:26:55,614 --> 00:26:56,781
Do you hear me, huh?

537
00:26:56,848 --> 00:26:57,816
How's this for sharing?

538
00:26:59,784 --> 00:27:00,719
Sorry.

539
00:27:04,789 --> 00:27:07,692
We are on the verge
of a real breakthrough here if you just

540
00:27:07,759 --> 00:27:09,127
give this session a chance.

541
00:27:09,194 --> 00:27:10,028
[sobbing]

542
00:27:11,429 --> 00:27:12,530
Thank you, doctor.

543
00:27:16,368 --> 00:27:17,202
No way.

544
00:27:17,268 --> 00:27:18,103
-Stone, no way.
-Von.

545
00:27:18,169 --> 00:27:19,504
Come on, please do this. Forget it.

546
00:27:19,571 --> 00:27:20,505
Look, I'm done.

547
00:27:20,572 --> 00:27:21,940
There's no way I'm doing this.

548
00:27:22,007 --> 00:27:24,476
Did you just see him walk out of
that door crying like that?

549
00:27:24,542 --> 00:27:25,477
That is not me.

550
00:27:25,543 --> 00:27:28,213
My dad, what do you think he would think
if he saw this?

551
00:27:28,279 --> 00:27:31,216
I'm not doing this for you,
I'm not doing this for anyone.

552
00:27:31,282 --> 00:27:32,951
There's no way
I'm walking through that door.

553
00:27:34,285 --> 00:27:35,120
Mr. Wagner?

554
00:27:40,091 --> 00:27:41,393
Maybe I'll give it a shot.

555
00:27:42,293 --> 00:27:43,161
Let's do it.

556
00:27:43,962 --> 00:27:45,130
You stay here.

557
00:27:45,563 --> 00:27:46,498
I got this.

558
00:27:56,675 --> 00:27:58,243
[Dani Palmer's music plays]

559
00:27:58,309 --> 00:28:00,445
That's a giant step taken from Von Wagner.

560
00:28:00,512 --> 00:28:01,813
Where do you want me to lay at?

561
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:02,914
[laughs]

562
00:28:02,981 --> 00:28:04,015
[bell rings]

563
00:28:04,182 --> 00:28:06,851
The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

564
00:28:06,918 --> 00:28:10,655
Introducing first, Dani Palmer.

565
00:28:10,722 --> 00:28:12,257
[crowd cheers]

566
00:28:12,323 --> 00:28:16,294
Well, all joking aside, this is
the biggest match in Dani Palmer's career

567
00:28:16,361 --> 00:28:18,329
and this has been a long time coming.

568
00:28:19,164 --> 00:28:25,737
[Blair Davenport's music plays]

569
00:28:25,804 --> 00:28:32,777
[crowd boos]

570
00:28:37,315 --> 00:28:41,519
Her opponent, Blair Davenport.

571
00:28:41,586 --> 00:28:42,420
[crowd boos]

572
00:28:42,487 --> 00:28:44,856
Davenport revealed
herself as the attacker.

573
00:28:45,323 --> 00:28:47,459
Whether it's been in the NXT parking lot,

574
00:28:47,525 --> 00:28:51,029
whether it's been here at NXT on Tuesdays

575
00:28:51,096 --> 00:28:53,932
or at a live event, Blair Davenport

576
00:28:53,998 --> 00:28:58,169
revealing to the world that she has been
behind those heinous attacks.

577
00:28:58,236 --> 00:29:01,406
When you break down Davenport, Booker,
what stands out?

578
00:29:01,473 --> 00:29:05,677
Is it the frightening intensity
or is it her brutal in-ring style?

579
00:29:05,744 --> 00:29:07,579
Vic, the mystery is over.

580
00:29:07,645 --> 00:29:10,515
I look at Blair Davenport
and I say she's got something,

581
00:29:10,582 --> 00:29:13,051
but it goes back a long way.

582
00:29:13,118 --> 00:29:16,621
She started this business
when she was 16 years old, Vic.

583
00:29:16,688 --> 00:29:18,556
[bell rings] She's a student of this game.

584
00:29:18,623 --> 00:29:20,925
Her in-ring prowess,
that's what you got to worry about.

585
00:29:20,992 --> 00:29:23,027
You bring that up,
she began training in New Zealand,

586
00:29:23,094 --> 00:29:25,697
honed her craft throughout Europe
and in Japan.

587
00:29:26,731 --> 00:29:29,467
Right now, has that no prisoner mentality.

588
00:29:29,701 --> 00:29:32,370
Oh, Palmer answering right back.

589
00:29:32,437 --> 00:29:34,405
Again, this has been a long time coming
for Dani Palmer.

590
00:29:34,472 --> 00:29:36,341
Having that worldly experience, Vic.

591
00:29:36,407 --> 00:29:38,510
You can't teach that, Vic.

592
00:29:38,576 --> 00:29:40,645
That's just something you
got to out there and get.

593
00:29:40,712 --> 00:29:44,582
Right now, Dani Palmer,
I call this OJT, on the job training.

594
00:29:44,649 --> 00:29:46,217
Oh, yes, there you go.

595
00:29:46,284 --> 00:29:47,619
That's your first lesson, Dani.

596
00:29:47,685 --> 00:29:48,786
Oh, that's your second.

597
00:29:48,853 --> 00:29:51,189
Well, you and I were talking
about Dani Palmer before

598
00:29:51,256 --> 00:29:53,057
and she's having to be
careful here tonight.

599
00:29:53,124 --> 00:29:54,859
She has seen Wendy Choo and Nikkita Lyons,

600
00:29:54,926 --> 00:29:58,630
even her best friend Sol Ruca
attacked by Davenport.

601
00:29:58,696 --> 00:30:00,131
She has to be careful.

602
00:30:00,198 --> 00:30:01,166
She has to be very careful.

603
00:30:01,232 --> 00:30:08,039
Dani Palmer, she just debuted September
24th, 2022, Vic.

604
00:30:08,106 --> 00:30:09,340
She's a rookie.

605
00:30:09,407 --> 00:30:11,009
She's green as goose.

606
00:30:11,075 --> 00:30:12,610
You know what I'm talking about.

607
00:30:12,677 --> 00:30:13,511
I hear what you're saying.

608
00:30:13,578 --> 00:30:16,014
We talked about her being too emotional,
and right now, it is

609
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,250
-Davenport taking full advantage.
-Oh, yes.

610
00:30:19,317 --> 00:30:20,251
That's all it is.

611
00:30:20,318 --> 00:30:21,886
There's levels to this game, Vic.

612
00:30:21,953 --> 00:30:23,621
There's levels to this game.

613
00:30:23,688 --> 00:30:26,791
Davenport, who has battled Japanese
legend, Meiko Satomura,

614
00:30:26,858 --> 00:30:30,862
Raw's Indi Hartwell, smackdown's
Kay Lee Ray, bringing it again,

615
00:30:30,929 --> 00:30:32,764
and this is that intensity
we talked about, that

616
00:30:32,831 --> 00:30:35,066
aggressiveness in the ring.

617
00:30:35,133 --> 00:30:38,970
Back to what you said,
for the decades of experience she has

618
00:30:39,037 --> 00:30:40,471
all over the world.

619
00:30:40,538 --> 00:30:43,942
Working in those Dojos, Vic, in Japan,
I'm going to tell you,

620
00:30:44,008 --> 00:30:45,376
there's nothing like it.

621
00:30:45,443 --> 00:30:47,779
In my experience there,
I came out there for 20 days,

622
00:30:47,846 --> 00:30:51,716
I couldn't wait to get back
to the United States of America.

623
00:30:51,783 --> 00:30:53,952
Oh, shoulders down,
Palmer looking for a huge upset.

624
00:30:54,018 --> 00:30:56,387
As we continue with this matchup,
I want to let everyone know,

625
00:30:56,454 --> 00:30:59,757
we're still waiting on a medical update
on Ilja Dragunov

626
00:30:59,824 --> 00:31:01,993
after what we witnessed earlier tonight.

627
00:31:02,060 --> 00:31:06,130
Being attacked by Bron Breakker,
but on the offensive attack

628
00:31:06,197 --> 00:31:09,601
since the beginning
has been Blair Davenport.

629
00:31:09,667 --> 00:31:12,470
Right now this is
called a meat grinder right now.

630
00:31:12,537 --> 00:31:15,306
Right now, Blair Davenport
is just laying it on thick.

631
00:31:15,373 --> 00:31:16,441
Check this out, Vic.

632
00:31:17,208 --> 00:31:18,610
-Bam.
-Oh, yes.

633
00:31:18,676 --> 00:31:21,246
When you talk about the attacks
after revealing yourself

634
00:31:21,312 --> 00:31:24,749
to be the attacker,
what do those attacks on the locker room

635
00:31:24,816 --> 00:31:28,920
tell you, Booker, about the individual
that is Blair Davenport?

636
00:31:28,987 --> 00:31:30,688
That be Blair's intimidating, Vic.

637
00:31:30,755 --> 00:31:34,959
Those are mind games,
those are old Tricks to the trade, and

638
00:31:35,026 --> 00:31:39,097
Blair Davenport being a veteran,
an in-ring veteran, she knows

639
00:31:39,163 --> 00:31:40,531
all of those Tricks, Vic.

640
00:31:40,598 --> 00:31:41,599
Look at Dani Palmer.

641
00:31:41,666 --> 00:31:42,700
Two knees to the face.

642
00:31:42,767 --> 00:31:45,103
Could we see a shocking upset?

643
00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:47,972
Davenport kicking out at two.

644
00:31:48,039 --> 00:31:50,708
Look, for Palmer right now,
she's got to keep her foot on.

645
00:31:50,775 --> 00:31:53,211
She has to remember her friends
who have been attacked, herself

646
00:31:53,278 --> 00:31:56,981
who has been attacked as right now
Davenport just sending-- wow.

647
00:31:57,448 --> 00:31:59,584
Palmer across the ring, nasty landing.

648
00:32:00,084 --> 00:32:02,320
You could imagine the nerves
of Dani Palmer

649
00:32:02,387 --> 00:32:07,592
being in a matchup like this so early
in her career against Blair Davenport.

650
00:32:07,659 --> 00:32:08,493
Oh, man.

651
00:32:08,559 --> 00:32:10,561
What a devastating
knee, and now Davenport.

652
00:32:10,628 --> 00:32:13,231
Oh, falcon arrow connects.

653
00:32:13,298 --> 00:32:14,132
That's it.

654
00:32:15,166 --> 00:32:17,735

Easy work, Vic.

658
00:32:26,344 --> 00:32:28,980
You got to give all the credit
in the world for Dani Palmer

659
00:32:29,047 --> 00:32:32,617
for trying to bring her best here tonight,

660
00:32:32,684 --> 00:32:34,752
as you mentioned,
just beginning her career.

661
00:32:34,819 --> 00:32:37,221
Blair Davenport has honed her craft.

662
00:32:46,631 --> 00:32:47,598
She is someone.

663
00:32:47,665 --> 00:32:50,134
I noticed that.

664
00:32:57,275 --> 00:32:59,110
Dana Brooke, what a pleasant surprise.

665
00:32:59,310 --> 00:33:00,478
What brings you to NXT?

666
00:33:00,545 --> 00:33:03,514
I heard there's a number one
contender's battle royal tonight,

667
00:33:03,581 --> 00:33:06,517
and if anyone's going to face Tiffany,
it's going to be me.

668
00:33:07,051 --> 00:33:09,354
I've heard there's a lot of buzz
going around NXT

669
00:33:09,420 --> 00:33:11,322
and this place is full of opportunities,

670
00:33:11,389 --> 00:33:15,960
but I'm going to make my own opportunity
tonight when I'm the last woman standing.

671
00:33:18,329 --> 00:33:22,900
Dana Brooke just entering into
that number one contender's battle royal.

672
00:33:22,967 --> 00:33:24,869
From one free agent to another,

673
00:33:24,936 --> 00:33:26,971
Trick Williams attacked Baron Corbin

674
00:33:27,038 --> 00:33:29,440
as payback for NXT champion,
Carmelo Hayes.

675
00:33:29,507 --> 00:33:32,677
These two go one-on-one next live on NXT.

676
00:33:37,382 --> 00:33:40,318
Tiffany Stratton,
the new NXT women's champion,

677
00:33:40,385 --> 00:33:43,354
the number one contender's battle
royal was your idea.

678
00:33:43,421 --> 00:33:47,358
Moments ago, we saw Dana Brooke show up
and she's now in the battle royal.

679
00:33:47,425 --> 00:33:51,062
McKenzie, I wish I could say
I was shocked, but I'm really not.

680
00:33:51,129 --> 00:33:54,165
Of course, Dana Brooke wants a shot
at my championship.

681
00:33:54,232 --> 00:33:56,434
Come one, come all.

682
00:33:56,934 --> 00:34:00,438
Sometimes the title makes a superstar,
but in this case,

683
00:34:00,505 --> 00:34:02,006
I've already made this championship

684
00:34:02,073 --> 00:34:06,411
the most desirable championship
in all of WWE.

685
00:34:06,477 --> 00:34:10,181
What I absolutely love about tonight
is every single woman in

686
00:34:10,248 --> 00:34:13,351
that ring is envious of what I have.

687
00:34:14,051 --> 00:34:15,086
Are you kidding me?

688
00:34:15,553 --> 00:34:17,989
No one was happy for me
when I won this title.

689
00:34:18,656 --> 00:34:19,557
Not even you.

690
00:34:20,058 --> 00:34:22,927
I have no problem proving
that I'm in a class on my own to

691
00:34:22,994 --> 00:34:25,029
whomever wins tonight.

692
00:34:25,596 --> 00:34:27,665
Who do you think will win
the battle royal tonight?

693
00:34:29,534 --> 00:34:33,571
T-b-h, lyra Valkyria is the only woman
I could see pulling it off.

694
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,808
She pushed me at battleground.

695
00:34:37,108 --> 00:34:40,244
Damn, girl, you were almost
at the tippy top,

696
00:34:40,611 --> 00:34:43,648
but it doesn't matter because the results
will stay the same on the other side,

697
00:34:43,714 --> 00:34:49,153
and still NXT woman's champion,
Tiffany Stratton.

698
00:34:50,855 --> 00:34:52,123
Just love the sound of that.

699
00:34:52,723 --> 00:34:53,558
Toodles.

Who will be the first
to challenge Stratton?

702

We find out tonight.

704
00:35:05,203 --> 00:35:07,805
The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

705
00:35:07,872 --> 00:35:13,678
Introducing first, Baron Corbin.

706
00:35:14,612 --> 00:35:18,216
Corbin got a lot off his chest
to kick us off tonight,

707
00:35:18,282 --> 00:35:21,018
but it's really what he did last week.

708
00:35:21,085 --> 00:35:24,522
Of course, our NXT champion,
Carmelo Hayes, is not here

709
00:35:24,589 --> 00:35:26,524
tonight because of
what happened last week,

710
00:35:26,591 --> 00:35:29,293
but it hasn't stopped
him from going on social media,

711
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,463
because Hayes knows
the target is on his back.

712
00:35:32,530 --> 00:35:36,234
He isn't running,
Melo is watching closely tonight

713
00:35:36,300 --> 00:35:40,338
as his best friend handles
business here on NXT live.

714
00:35:42,006 --> 00:35:46,611
For Baron Corbin, he was very blunt
with what he had to say

715
00:35:46,677 --> 00:35:48,346
-earlier tonight.
-Oh, yes, he was.

And his opponent, Trick Williams.

718
00:35:59,624 --> 00:36:01,859
For Trick Williams,
fighting for his friend,

[bell rings]

722
00:36:46,504 --> 00:36:48,539
Let's talk about how we started the night

723
00:36:48,606 --> 00:36:52,643
because Baron Corbin made his way
to the ring and the things he was saying

724
00:36:52,710 --> 00:36:53,945
raised your eyebrows.

725
00:36:54,011 --> 00:36:54,845
Oh, no.

726
00:36:54,912 --> 00:36:56,314
Is he right about the locker room?

727
00:36:56,380 --> 00:36:59,517
A lot of things
that Baron Corbin is saying

728
00:36:59,584 --> 00:37:01,919
I've been saying for a long time, Vic.

729
00:37:01,986 --> 00:37:03,754
This business has gotten soft.

730
00:37:03,821 --> 00:37:08,559
A lot of these guys want to go
to Twitter and voice their grievances.

731
00:37:08,626 --> 00:37:10,828
It's not like that with guys
like Baron Corbin.

732
00:37:10,895 --> 00:37:12,930
He's a grown man, Vic.

733
00:37:12,997 --> 00:37:14,966
He knows what it means to be at the top.

734
00:37:15,032 --> 00:37:18,236
He knows what it means to
work with Bonafide champions.

735
00:37:18,302 --> 00:37:20,304
Yes, he can teach these guys a whole lot.

736
00:37:20,371 --> 00:37:22,506
Yes, I agree with him in a lot of ways.

737
00:37:22,974 --> 00:37:25,876
Corbin, someone who has been
in a lot of different atmospheres.

738
00:37:25,943 --> 00:37:29,714
NXT universe not going to
rattle Corbin as he is going right to

739
00:37:29,780 --> 00:37:31,048
work on Trick Williams.

740
00:37:31,115 --> 00:37:34,452
Look, for Williams, he attacked,
he dropped Corbin to start the night.

741
00:37:34,518 --> 00:37:36,687
We talk about Carmelo Hayes
not being here,

742
00:37:36,754 --> 00:37:40,591
this certainly is the toughest test
for Trick Williams in his career.

743
00:37:40,658 --> 00:37:44,562
Trick Williams is to Carmelo Hayes
is what flavored flavor,

744
00:37:44,629 --> 00:37:47,365
is western Chuck de,
the ultimate hype man.

745
00:37:47,431 --> 00:37:52,136
Right now, Vic, I think Trick Williams,
he wants a piece of the action.

746
00:37:52,203 --> 00:37:56,340
He wants to show that he can work
at the next level as well.

747
00:37:56,407 --> 00:37:58,276
I think he can do it here tonight.

748
00:37:58,342 --> 00:38:01,579
Corbin also called out
the most recent NXT draft class, and

749
00:38:01,646 --> 00:38:05,516
for Trick Williams and also Ilja Dragunov,
who we still not got a medical update on,

750
00:38:05,583 --> 00:38:08,686
they didn't want to hear
what Baron Corbin had to say.

751
00:38:08,753 --> 00:38:11,222
You can understand Trick
Williams mindset, though,

752
00:38:11,288 --> 00:38:12,823
coming into this matchup, can you not?

753
00:38:12,890 --> 00:38:16,394
There's a lot of guys in their locker room
like Dragunova,

754
00:38:16,460 --> 00:38:18,796
like the Creed brothers,
like Carmelo Hayes,

755
00:38:18,863 --> 00:38:22,600
they're not going to stand up to someone
like Baron Corbin coming back and

756
00:38:22,667 --> 00:38:23,834
trying to take food out of them.

757
00:38:23,901 --> 00:38:25,136
It's not going to happen, man.

758
00:38:27,071 --> 00:38:28,572
Corbin continuing to talk trash.

759
00:38:28,639 --> 00:38:30,574
Look at Williams, starting to fight back,

760
00:38:30,641 --> 00:38:33,878
and look, you got to give Trick Williams
a lot of credit for the growth,

761
00:38:33,944 --> 00:38:38,449
the potential that we have seen out
of Williams in recent weeks.

762
00:38:38,516 --> 00:38:41,085
Yes. Trick Williams,
he's able to grow right now, Vic.

763
00:38:41,152 --> 00:38:45,189
Totally at a disadvantage,
but one thing he has on his side is

764
00:38:45,256 --> 00:38:47,491
one big right hand,
he's six-foot-four, Vic.

765
00:38:47,558 --> 00:38:50,294
He's carved and chiseled out of granite.

766
00:38:50,361 --> 00:38:54,965
That didn't happen by accident
or osmosis or anything like that.

767
00:38:55,032 --> 00:38:57,768
There's a mistake by Corbin,
and now Williams trying to make him pay.

768
00:38:57,835 --> 00:38:59,804
Look, we know Trick Williams
packs a powerful punch,

769
00:38:59,870 --> 00:39:03,174
but Corbin certainly can match it
as Corbin swings and the miss.

770
00:39:03,774 --> 00:39:07,244
Now Williams starting to
pick up some momentum.

771
00:39:07,311 --> 00:39:08,979
Oh, and there's one of those right hands.

772
00:39:09,046 --> 00:39:11,282
There's that shot
I was talking about, Vic.

773
00:39:12,483 --> 00:39:13,617
I'm always going to here.

774
00:39:13,684 --> 00:39:17,288
Trick Williams starting
to roll against Baron Corbin.

775
00:39:22,593 --> 00:39:25,529
Back live on NXT on a night
where we will determine

776
00:39:25,596 --> 00:39:28,566
the new number one contender
for the NXT women's title here.

Baron Corbin one-on-one
with Trick Williams,

778
00:39:31,435 --> 00:39:34,405
and one of your good friends,
fellow WWE hall of famer JBL,

779
00:39:34,472 --> 00:39:36,540
saw something in Baron Corbin.

780
00:39:36,607 --> 00:39:37,441
Yes.

781
00:39:37,508 --> 00:39:38,342
Let me tell you what he saw.

782
00:39:38,409 --> 00:39:40,144
He saw a lot of star potential
in Baron Corbin.

783
00:39:40,211 --> 00:39:42,947
The guy that he can take
all the way to the top.

784
00:39:43,013 --> 00:39:45,282
I'm talking about the world heavyweight
championship.

785
00:39:45,349 --> 00:39:47,685
That didn't happen, and I'm sure
I'm not going to--

786
00:39:47,752 --> 00:39:49,220
I'm not going to just sit here and lie.

787
00:39:49,286 --> 00:39:55,626
Baron Corbin, he has to be a little bitter
about not making it to that top level.

788
00:39:55,693 --> 00:39:57,528
Let me move my stuff here, bro.

789
00:39:58,129 --> 00:39:59,764
Oh, yes, Trick.

790
00:39:59,830 --> 00:40:01,565
Take it to the street, baby.

791
00:40:03,334 --> 00:40:05,736
Maybe that's some of the-- oh, whoa.

792
00:40:05,803 --> 00:40:06,637
What the?

793
00:40:08,839 --> 00:40:10,941
The damn table almost came up on us, Book.

794
00:40:12,276 --> 00:40:15,579
Trick Williams hit this table
so hard it almost flipped.

795
00:40:15,646 --> 00:40:21,485
Now Corbin sensing it, going right
to the left knee of Trick Williams.

796
00:40:21,552 --> 00:40:23,187
Inexperience mistake right there, Vic.

797
00:40:23,254 --> 00:40:25,389
This is what you talked about earlier,
being a veteran in the game

798
00:40:25,456 --> 00:40:26,390
like Baron Corbin.

799
00:40:26,457 --> 00:40:29,160
He now sees a weakness, he's exposing it.

800
00:40:29,226 --> 00:40:31,762
It's got a blueprint on it.

801
00:40:31,829 --> 00:40:35,065
Right now, it's got a bullseye
on that weak spot.

802
00:40:35,132 --> 00:40:37,935
Right now,
Baron Corbin is about to exploit it, Vic.

803
00:40:38,002 --> 00:40:39,370
Oh, yes.

804
00:40:39,437 --> 00:40:42,840
The knees right into the steel steps,

805
00:40:42,907 --> 00:40:47,611
and Trick Williams you could is just
screaming in pain.

806
00:40:47,678 --> 00:40:48,646
A lot of pain.

807
00:40:55,753 --> 00:40:59,490
You talk about changing the complexion
of a matchup, Corbin

808
00:40:59,557 --> 00:41:03,794
just did it in a hurry,
and it comes back to a miscue,

809
00:41:03,861 --> 00:41:05,429
a misfire from Trick Williams.

810
00:41:05,496 --> 00:41:06,597
Not a miscue, Vic.

811
00:41:06,664 --> 00:41:07,998
You just said it a minute ago.

812
00:41:08,065 --> 00:41:12,403
That veteran experience from Baron Corbin,
a guy that's been in there.

813
00:41:13,070 --> 00:41:16,407
Not just been in there, Vic,
but been in there with the best in

814
00:41:16,473 --> 00:41:17,641
this business.

815
00:41:17,708 --> 00:41:21,278
-Corbin ran down his accolades--
-Oh, yes.

816
00:41:21,612 --> 00:41:24,048
Possibly into the cover,
but look at Corbin.

817
00:41:24,114 --> 00:41:27,718
Right into a single-leg crab,
continuing to bend,

818
00:41:27,785 --> 00:41:32,223
trying to break Trick Williams
in the center of the ring.

819
00:41:32,289 --> 00:41:33,958
What a combination right there, Vic.

820
00:41:34,024 --> 00:41:36,727
Spinebuster right into that single leg,
and right now Trick

821
00:41:36,794 --> 00:41:39,230
Williams is in dire straits, man.

822
00:41:40,798 --> 00:41:44,935
Williams trying to stretch,
find the bottom rope to break

823
00:41:45,002 --> 00:41:46,604
the hold, and finally does.

824
00:41:47,805 --> 00:41:50,841
We talk about the accolades from Corbin,
former United States champion,

825
00:41:50,908 --> 00:41:54,078
former king of the ring, beat hall
of famer Kurt Angle in his last match.

826
00:41:54,311 --> 00:41:55,913
Baron Corbin has done it all,

827
00:41:57,681 --> 00:42:01,218
but Baron Corbin right now just
got rocked by Trick Williams.

828
00:42:01,285 --> 00:42:03,654
For Trick Williams, he's in deep waters.

829
00:42:03,721 --> 00:42:06,423
Can we just say it, Vic,
this is the biggest match of this

830
00:42:06,490 --> 00:42:08,692
young man Trick Williams' career.

831
00:42:08,759 --> 00:42:11,161
If he can get a victory here,
if he can just have a good outing,

832
00:42:11,228 --> 00:42:12,263
it would be great.

833
00:42:12,329 --> 00:42:13,697
If he could get a win, Vic.

834
00:42:13,764 --> 00:42:15,165
-Oh, my god, man.
-I don't think Trick

835
00:42:15,232 --> 00:42:16,867
wants a good outing.
I think he wants to win.

836
00:42:16,934 --> 00:42:20,104
I think he wants to shut the mouth
of Baron Corbin who ran it

837
00:42:20,170 --> 00:42:23,340
earlier tonight, who jumped
his best friend and our champion,

838
00:42:23,407 --> 00:42:24,508
Carmelo Hayes, last week.

839
00:42:24,575 --> 00:42:25,542
I understand that, Vic.

840
00:42:25,609 --> 00:42:27,611
I'm just saying I understand
what it's like being in a

841
00:42:27,678 --> 00:42:30,214
position of a young
man like a Trick Williams.

842
00:42:30,281 --> 00:42:32,549
Hopefully, he can get a victory,
but it's going to be hard.

843
00:42:32,616 --> 00:42:34,752
It's going to be hard with
this man Baron Corbin.

844
00:42:34,818 --> 00:42:35,719
Oh, yes.

845
00:42:35,786 --> 00:42:36,687
Here we go.

846
00:42:36,754 --> 00:42:39,790
Adrenaline running through
the veins of Trick Williams.

847
00:42:40,724 --> 00:42:43,961
Williams now running right in,
dropping Corbin again.

848
00:42:44,028 --> 00:42:44,862
Into the cover.

849
00:42:44,929 --> 00:42:49,166
-Hooks the inside leg.
-and Corbin able to kick out at two.

850
00:42:49,233 --> 00:42:52,202
Nice rolling neckbreaker there
by Trick Williams.

851
00:42:52,269 --> 00:42:56,006
A guy who's not known
for his wrestling skills.

852
00:42:56,073 --> 00:42:57,107
He's a fighter, Vic.

853
00:42:57,174 --> 00:42:58,042
He's a fighter.

854
00:42:58,108 --> 00:43:00,110
Williams came here
tonight acting on heart.

855
00:43:01,578 --> 00:43:03,981
Trying to bring the fight to Corbin.

856
00:43:05,549 --> 00:43:06,817
Williams, nice counter.

857
00:43:07,785 --> 00:43:08,719
Coming right back in.

858
00:43:08,786 --> 00:43:11,689
Oh, it's unorthodox.

859
00:43:11,755 --> 00:43:13,324
Yes, but effective.

860
00:43:13,390 --> 00:43:15,926
That kick caught all of Corbin.

861
00:43:15,993 --> 00:43:17,227
Corbin is rocked.

862
00:43:17,294 --> 00:43:18,395
Williams is feeling it.

863
00:43:20,197 --> 00:43:21,465
Oh, gets caught.

864
00:43:21,532 --> 00:43:22,666
Deep six.

865
00:43:24,101 --> 00:43:26,136
Will that be enough for Corbin tonight?

866
00:43:26,203 --> 00:43:28,739
Williams kicking out.

867
00:43:28,973 --> 00:43:30,307
Continuing to fight.

868
00:43:30,374 --> 00:43:31,809
Look at Corbin's eyes, man.

869
00:43:31,875 --> 00:43:36,146
I don't think he thought he was going
to get taken to the limit

870
00:43:36,213 --> 00:43:37,414
like this tonight.

871
00:43:37,481 --> 00:43:42,152
[crowd chants "this is awesome"]

872
00:43:46,490 --> 00:43:49,460
Corbin believes he gave Hayes
a dose of reality last week,

873
00:43:49,526 --> 00:43:53,631
but right now, Trick Williams trying
to serve that same dose

874
00:43:53,697 --> 00:43:55,265
of reality back to Corbin.

875
00:43:58,335 --> 00:43:59,670
What's on the mind of Williams?

876
00:44:04,608 --> 00:44:07,277
Corbin now, and this is Williams'
opportunity here, book.

877
00:44:07,344 --> 00:44:08,178
Right here.

878
00:44:08,245 --> 00:44:10,114
The window just opened for Trick Williams,

879
00:44:10,180 --> 00:44:12,616
and right now Baron Corbin,
he's reeling, man.

880
00:44:12,683 --> 00:44:13,984
-He's down.
-He's been knocked out.

881
00:44:14,051 --> 00:44:15,185
Corbin just buckled.

882
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,690
Williams with Corbin in his sights.

883
00:44:21,558 --> 00:44:24,094
Oh, that left knee.

884
00:44:24,161 --> 00:44:27,264
Oh, Corbin right back to
the knee from earlier in the match,

885
00:44:27,331 --> 00:44:30,167
and following it up with end of days.

886
00:44:31,935 --> 00:44:34,738
[crowd] One, Two, Three.

887
00:44:34,805 --> 00:44:35,706
[bell rings]

888
00:44:35,773 --> 00:44:37,674
[Baron Corbin's music plays]

889
00:44:37,841 --> 00:44:42,046
Here is your winner, Baron Corbin.

890
00:44:44,181 --> 00:44:47,051
Trick Williams was looking
for maybe that knockout blow,

891
00:44:47,818 --> 00:44:50,988
but hindered throughout moments
of this matchup after this

892
00:44:51,055 --> 00:44:53,023
moment earlier in the matchup.

893
00:44:53,090 --> 00:44:54,291
Bam.

894
00:44:55,392 --> 00:44:58,062
We've had a lot of different superstars
hit this table.

895
00:44:58,128 --> 00:45:00,197
No one has ever rocked it that way.

896
00:45:00,264 --> 00:45:03,600
Then Corbin would continue
the offensive onslaught, and then

897
00:45:03,667 --> 00:45:06,770
finally the knee just giving out
for a moment and then taking

898
00:45:06,837 --> 00:45:11,642
full advantage of it, Baron Corbin
would set up for that end of days.

899
00:45:11,709 --> 00:45:17,047
Bam, and lights out for Trick Williams
here tonight on NXT.

900
00:45:17,114 --> 00:45:20,117
Harsh words to start the night,
but harsh reality could be

901
00:45:20,184 --> 00:45:22,820
setting in for Hayes and the roster.

902
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:26,156
I'm headed to smackdown
where I qualify for money in the bank.

903
00:45:26,223 --> 00:45:29,526
Ilja, I'll be back next Tuesday.

904
00:45:29,593 --> 00:45:33,163
If you feel like some, come get some.

905
00:45:46,376 --> 00:45:50,013
Welcome to the latest edition of hard
hitting home truths with

906
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:52,549
yours truly, Nathan Frazer.

907
00:45:52,816 --> 00:45:54,885
Now, we're about nine days removed
from battleground and

908
00:45:54,952 --> 00:45:57,588
the landscape of NXT never stops shifting.

909
00:45:57,654 --> 00:46:01,425
We have a brand new NXT
women's champion, Wes Lee's breaking

910
00:46:01,492 --> 00:46:05,662
every single record in the book,
Ilja Dragunov is not human,

911
00:46:05,729 --> 00:46:07,564
it isn't exactly breaking news,

912
00:46:07,631 --> 00:46:10,200
and we got free agents popping up,
left and right.

913
00:46:10,267 --> 00:46:13,270
Most importantly, Noam Dar has assembled
himself a new group of

914
00:46:13,337 --> 00:46:17,274
mates to help him cling on
to that precious little baby of his.

915
00:46:17,341 --> 00:46:21,178
They were useful enough to help him
retain at battleground,

916
00:46:21,245 --> 00:46:23,680
but they weren't quite useful
enough to help him gain

917
00:46:23,747 --> 00:46:28,252
the NXT championship last week thanks
to a couple of fine handsome gentlemen.

918
00:46:29,553 --> 00:46:30,888
You love to see it.

919
00:46:31,889 --> 00:46:35,459
However, Noam is still
the NXT heritage cup champion

920
00:46:35,526 --> 00:46:38,028
and whilst I'm not exactly a fan of this
new mega group

921
00:46:38,095 --> 00:46:41,698
myself and everyone else is just
going to have to deal with it.

922
00:46:42,432 --> 00:46:44,868
Speaking of which, I brought on
a special guest that feels the

923
00:46:44,935 --> 00:46:47,504
exact same way about Noam's group as I do.

924
00:46:49,072 --> 00:46:53,377
That's right, ladies and gentlemen,
hard hitting home truth is going global.

925
00:46:53,577 --> 00:46:57,815
Now help me introduce our new senior
international correspondent if you will,

926
00:46:57,881 --> 00:46:59,950
Mr. Dragon Lee.

927
00:47:04,454 --> 00:47:11,428
[Spanish language]

928
00:47:13,330 --> 00:47:14,164
See.

929
00:47:14,498 --> 00:47:20,804
However, I have in my hand the top
five names for Noam's new group.

930
00:47:21,104 --> 00:47:25,909
Number five, two awful chat show hosts,
plus two.

931
00:47:25,976 --> 00:47:30,013
Number four, The Oro Mensah experience.

932
00:47:30,314 --> 00:47:34,785
Number three, The Jakara Jackson five,
minus one.

933
00:47:34,852 --> 00:47:40,157
Number two, the long lost legend
of lash legend.

934
00:47:40,224 --> 00:47:44,461
Number one, Noam's rent-a-friends.

935
00:47:45,229 --> 00:47:49,333
I like that last one the best
because it literally is the truth.

936
00:47:49,766 --> 00:47:52,269
After battleground,
Noam's running out of surprises.

937
00:47:52,469 --> 00:47:54,905
I think he needs a new challenger, amigo.

938
00:47:54,972 --> 00:47:55,873
Damn right he does.

939
00:47:55,939 --> 00:47:58,108
You see the hard-hitting
home truth about you, Noam,

940
00:47:58,175 --> 00:48:00,944
is that you a fragile little fraud hiding
behind your new buddies.

941
00:48:01,011 --> 00:48:03,447
Now, I beat you in regular competition
the other week,

942
00:48:03,513 --> 00:48:05,115
so this is my challenge to you.

943
00:48:05,515 --> 00:48:10,153
Nathan Frazer versus Noam Dar
for the heritage cup next week.

944
00:48:10,787 --> 00:48:12,623
I happily be in your corner, my friend.

945
00:48:12,689 --> 00:48:15,425
On that note, I'm going to love you and
leave you.

946
00:48:15,492 --> 00:48:17,928
I've been Nathan Frazer,
he's been Dragon Lee.

947
00:48:17,995 --> 00:48:20,664
Noam Dar, ball's in your court.

948
00:48:21,365 --> 00:48:22,232
Peace.

949
00:48:28,572 --> 00:48:30,374
I'm now joined by Mustafa Ali.

950
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,577
Ali, last week you shocked
the entire WWE universe

951
00:48:33,644 --> 00:48:38,215
when you showed up during the Wes Lee
and Tyler bate versus dyad tag team match.

952
00:48:38,282 --> 00:48:39,216
What brings you to NXT?

953
00:48:39,683 --> 00:48:43,120
I'm free agent Ali, baby.

954
00:48:43,186 --> 00:48:48,158
That means I can show up wherever I want,
and now the pen is in my hand.

955
00:48:48,458 --> 00:48:52,562
Now, I'm the one writing the story,
and the next chapter that

956
00:48:52,629 --> 00:48:57,134
I'm going to write is called Mustafa Ali
finally becomes a champion.

957
00:48:57,701 --> 00:49:00,203
Tonight, you face off against one
of the members of--

958
00:49:00,270 --> 00:49:01,605
excuse me real quick.

959
00:49:01,672 --> 00:49:04,308
I do not mean to interrupt,
but I have got to let you know how

960
00:49:04,374 --> 00:49:05,909
excited I am that you are here, dawg.

961
00:49:05,976 --> 00:49:08,512
I heard you talking about gold over there.

962
00:49:08,578 --> 00:49:11,481
The north American championship,
I really like to make sure that we--

963
00:49:11,648 --> 00:49:12,950
Wes, Wes, Wes.

964
00:49:13,016 --> 00:49:14,551
Come on, don't do that.

965
00:49:14,952 --> 00:49:17,287
Don't just come here and
hand me an opportunity.

966
00:49:17,721 --> 00:49:21,391
I'm like you, I want to earn it,
and that's going to start

967
00:49:21,458 --> 00:49:22,292
tonight with Gacy.

968
00:49:22,826 --> 00:49:27,698
Who knows, down the road maybe it'll be me
and you for that title.

969
00:49:29,333 --> 00:49:32,602
That is if you're a
still champion by then.

[Mustafa Ali's music plays]

971
00:49:36,506 --> 00:49:37,474
That's me.

972
00:49:38,141 --> 00:49:39,543
Best of luck, Dawg.

The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

975
00:49:58,395 --> 00:50:03,533
Introducing first, Mustafa Ali.

976
00:50:05,535 --> 00:50:09,039
Ali shocked us joining us
on commentary last week.

977
00:50:09,106 --> 00:50:11,942
He is stepping inside the squared circle

978
00:50:12,009 --> 00:50:16,813
to take on Joe Gacy
one-on-one next on NXT.

980

His opponent, representing Schism,
Joe Gacy .

981
00:50:29,226 --> 00:50:31,461
It has been a successful tonight for
Schism.

982
00:50:31,628 --> 00:50:37,601
Can those roots grow even stronger
with another win here by Joe Gacy.

983
00:50:37,667 --> 00:50:39,469
Four roots one tree.

984
00:50:39,536 --> 00:50:42,339
Let me tell you something.
Joe Gacy, he's the leader, Vic.

985
00:50:42,406 --> 00:50:44,174
[bell rings]
He's the leader of the Schism.

986
00:50:44,241 --> 00:50:45,876
He's a man with a master plan.

987
00:50:45,942 --> 00:50:47,010
You know what that is, Vic?

988
00:50:47,077 --> 00:50:47,911
All the gold.

989
00:50:47,978 --> 00:50:49,846
I'm talking about NXT championship.

990
00:50:49,913 --> 00:50:51,548
I'm talking about tag team championship.

991
00:50:51,615 --> 00:50:53,150
I'm talking about the ladies, man.

992
00:50:53,216 --> 00:50:55,152
It's about to get on here, brother.

993
00:50:55,218 --> 00:50:56,053
Yes, look around.

994
00:50:56,119 --> 00:50:59,389
Joe Gacy all alone for this matchup
with Mustafa Ali.

995
00:50:59,456 --> 00:51:00,657
Look here. Vic.

996
00:51:01,425 --> 00:51:02,526
Vic, like I said, a master plan.

997
00:51:02,592 --> 00:51:05,395
You talking about somebody
that may have a rabbit in their old hat

998
00:51:05,462 --> 00:51:07,164
that they can pull out at any time.

999
00:51:07,230 --> 00:51:08,331
That's Joe Gacy, man.

1000
00:51:08,398 --> 00:51:12,169
It was Ali who prevented Gacy from
inflicting more damage to

1001
00:51:12,235 --> 00:51:16,840
Wes Lee and Tyler Bate last week here
on NXT as Gacy charging in.

1002
00:51:16,907 --> 00:51:20,844
There's some of the speed,
some of the quickness from Mustafa Ali,

1003
00:51:20,911 --> 00:51:23,947
and when the pace quickens,
that's right up Ali's alley.

1004
00:51:24,014 --> 00:51:24,848
He's quick, Vic.

1005
00:51:24,915 --> 00:51:26,116
He's as quick as a hiccup.

1006
00:51:26,183 --> 00:51:27,084
He definitely is.

1007
00:51:27,150 --> 00:51:29,553
Says the pen is in his hand now.

1008
00:51:29,619 --> 00:51:30,454
Oh.

1009
00:51:30,720 --> 00:51:34,057
Certainly made his intentions known back
in NXT to reset,

1010
00:51:34,124 --> 00:51:35,425
restore some of that passion.

1011
00:51:35,492 --> 00:51:37,928
He's a free agent and resetting is
what it's all about.

1012
00:51:37,994 --> 00:51:38,895
Whoa.

1013
00:51:38,962 --> 00:51:42,899
It's about starting all over
and it starts right here in NXT

1014
00:51:42,966 --> 00:51:44,134
with Joe Gacy.

1015
00:51:44,201 --> 00:51:47,504
He might want to hit the restart button
again after a nasty landing.

1016
00:51:47,571 --> 00:51:49,206
He's dealing with a player.

1017
00:51:49,272 --> 00:51:52,709
Joe Gacy is not a guy that's just messing
around.

1018
00:51:52,776 --> 00:51:54,778
This is a guy that knows this business,
Vic.

1019
00:51:54,845 --> 00:51:57,013
Cover, cover, cover, and Ali kicking out.

1020
00:51:58,248 --> 00:52:03,487
For Joe Gacy and he just has
this undeniable aura around him

1021
00:52:03,553 --> 00:52:06,189
that he has the power of persuasion,
able to get people

1022
00:52:06,256 --> 00:52:09,025
to believe in what he is selling,
what he is saying.

1023
00:52:09,092 --> 00:52:11,127
Like a firefly, Vic, he attracts you.

1024
00:52:11,194 --> 00:52:15,799
That's what Gacy's strong suit is,
as well as he's not that bad

1025
00:52:15,866 --> 00:52:18,268
-inside the 20 by 20.
-Off the uranage into the cover.

1026
00:52:18,335 --> 00:52:19,903
He almost got it right there.

1027
00:52:19,970 --> 00:52:21,004
Able to kick out.

1028
00:52:21,071 --> 00:52:24,407
Listen, what is Mustafa going to have
to do the really, really

1029
00:52:24,474 --> 00:52:26,810
break through that glass ceiling
because seems like he has all

1030
00:52:26,877 --> 00:52:30,981
the talent, all the skills,
but there's something missing, Vic.

1031
00:52:31,348 --> 00:52:36,119
For Gacy, certainly trying to frustrate
Mustafa Ali in this matchup

1032
00:52:36,186 --> 00:52:38,522
and Gacy continuing to apply the pressure.

1033
00:52:38,588 --> 00:52:40,056
Ali, though, able to counter for a moment.

1034
00:52:40,123 --> 00:52:41,057
Turned right around.

1035
00:52:41,124 --> 00:52:42,893
That's the skill
I'm talking about right there,

1036
00:52:42,959 --> 00:52:44,060
but got caught in the back end.

1037
00:52:44,127 --> 00:52:46,963
Cover off the DDT and another near fall.

1038
00:52:47,030 --> 00:52:49,699
Ali just able to escape.

1039
00:52:49,766 --> 00:52:53,637
For Joe Gacy, he's got to look
at someone like Mustafa Ali

1040
00:52:53,703 --> 00:52:57,307
as being in the wrong place
at the wrong time last Tuesday.

1041
00:52:57,374 --> 00:52:59,309
Vic, these guys they go to the main roster

1042
00:52:59,376 --> 00:53:00,544
and they come back here at NXT

1043
00:53:00,610 --> 00:53:03,847
and they realize the competition
is stiff here in NXT.

1044
00:53:03,914 --> 00:53:07,150
Some of the best talent in the world
is right here in NXT.

1045
00:53:07,217 --> 00:53:10,854
Nice neckbreaker by Mustafa Ali.

1046
00:53:10,921 --> 00:53:14,090
Now Ali feeling the energy,
feeling the love.

1047
00:53:14,157 --> 00:53:18,194
Someone who speaks from the heart just got
caught by a right hand.

1048
00:53:18,261 --> 00:53:21,665
Got caught admiring his work right there a
little bit too much, Vic.

1049
00:53:21,731 --> 00:53:23,433
Didn't get up there quick enough.

1050
00:53:23,500 --> 00:53:26,036
Gacy could be looking for a superplex.

1051
00:53:26,102 --> 00:53:28,905
Ali doing his best at this
juncture to try to block,

1052
00:53:28,972 --> 00:53:31,841
counter, create a little
bit of separation, and oh.

1053
00:53:33,443 --> 00:53:35,178
What's on the mind of Mustafa Ali?

1054
00:53:35,612 --> 00:53:37,047
Making his break, Vic.

1055
00:53:37,113 --> 00:53:38,381
That's what he's thinking about.

1056
00:53:38,548 --> 00:53:39,749
Big powerbomb.

1057
00:53:39,816 --> 00:53:41,885
Look at Ali, in his eyes, realizes,

1058
00:53:41,952 --> 00:53:45,055
sensing there's a little bit of
urgency now, is Ali.

1059
00:53:45,121 --> 00:53:46,189
Yes, indeed.

1060
00:53:46,256 --> 00:53:47,257
Back to the top rope.

1061
00:53:47,324 --> 00:53:48,158
Here we go.

1062
00:53:48,225 --> 00:53:49,159
Looking down.

1063
00:53:49,359 --> 00:53:50,827
450.

1064
00:53:50,894 --> 00:53:51,728
Wow.

1065
00:53:54,731 --> 00:53:56,166
[bell rings]

1066
00:53:57,367 --> 00:53:59,369
[Mustafa Ali's music plays]

1067
00:53:59,436 --> 00:54:00,303
Big win.

1068
00:54:00,370 --> 00:54:01,204
Oh, whoa.

1069
00:54:01,871 --> 00:54:04,808
Oh, and you knew like the
snakes they are striking.

1070
00:54:04,874 --> 00:54:05,875
What the hell?

1071
00:54:05,942 --> 00:54:07,911
They're late for the party.

1072
00:54:07,978 --> 00:54:09,145
Where were they?

1073
00:54:09,212 --> 00:54:13,617
Oh, Gacy holding on a three-on-one
attack of Mustafa Ali.

1074
00:54:14,150 --> 00:54:16,052
There's Wes Lee,
the north American champion.

1075
00:54:16,119 --> 00:54:16,987
Tyler bate

1076
00:54:20,257 --> 00:54:24,194
returning the favor from last week
with a little bop and bang.

1077
00:54:27,697 --> 00:54:29,599
Don't like the odds now, do you, Gacy?

1078
00:54:36,439 --> 00:54:38,441
Come on now. Come on now.
[Mustafa Ali's music plays]

1079
00:54:38,508 --> 00:54:44,614
It's Bate and Lee in the right
at the right time for Mustafa Ali.

1080
00:54:46,583 --> 00:54:48,084
I got my boys, you got your boys.

1081
00:54:48,151 --> 00:54:49,085
Let's do it right now.

1082
00:54:49,152 --> 00:54:49,986
[Crosstalk]

1083
00:54:50,053 --> 00:54:52,789
Starts tonight in that battle royal,
bodies are going to be flying everywhere

1084
00:54:52,856 --> 00:54:54,424
coming at you
from all different directions.

1085
00:54:54,491 --> 00:54:55,325
I'll be ready.

1086
00:54:55,392 --> 00:54:57,193
You got this, Fallon.
Believe in yourself. All right?

1087
00:54:57,260 --> 00:54:58,094
Thanks guys.

1088
00:54:58,161 --> 00:54:59,396
I really feel like tonight's my shot.

1089
00:54:59,462 --> 00:55:00,297
It is you two.

1090
00:55:00,363 --> 00:55:03,600
Y'all the ones that started all this
because y'all the ones that

1091
00:55:03,667 --> 00:55:06,503
put up Hank and tank to fight each other
to get closer.

1092
00:55:06,569 --> 00:55:08,672
Yes. Now y'all got Malik
trying to fight me.

1093
00:55:08,738 --> 00:55:09,572
-Yes.
-Okay.

1094
00:55:09,639 --> 00:55:10,707
I have to go get ready.

1095
00:55:10,774 --> 00:55:12,008
Go kick some ass, mama.

1096
00:55:12,075 --> 00:55:14,010
By ways of it,
it worked for Hank and Tank.

1097
00:55:14,077 --> 00:55:15,312
It worked for us too.

1098
00:55:15,378 --> 00:55:16,212
Did it though?

1099
00:55:16,279 --> 00:55:17,280
Yes. Did it really?

1100
00:55:17,347 --> 00:55:19,449
Okay, we're about to find out.

1101
00:55:19,516 --> 00:55:20,383
Briggs.

1102
00:55:20,450 --> 00:55:22,519
-Yes.
-What is Jensen's favorite color?

1103
00:55:22,585 --> 00:55:24,087
Oh, boy, that's a tough one.

1104
00:55:24,154 --> 00:55:24,988
Blue.

1105
00:55:25,221 --> 00:55:26,256
-It's on the shirt.
-Okay.

1106
00:55:26,323 --> 00:55:27,324
Easy one. Easy one.

1107
00:55:27,390 --> 00:55:28,224
Just testing you out.

1108
00:55:28,291 --> 00:55:29,125
All right, Jensen.

1109
00:55:29,192 --> 00:55:31,594
When is Briggs' birthday?

1110
00:55:31,661 --> 00:55:32,829
That's a tough one.

1111
00:55:33,997 --> 00:55:35,131
Briggs' birthday.

1112
00:55:35,198 --> 00:55:36,733
I'm going to say march 5th.

1113
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:38,068
Bingo, baby.

1114
00:55:38,134 --> 00:55:38,968
See, we're good.

1115
00:55:39,035 --> 00:55:40,270
We are good, boys.

1116
00:55:40,337 --> 00:55:41,237
I know your birthday.

1117
00:55:41,304 --> 00:55:42,205
It's one day.

1118
00:55:42,272 --> 00:55:43,106
I know you.

1119
00:55:43,173 --> 00:55:45,642
I know you.

1120
00:55:45,709 --> 00:55:47,210
You're a boy named sue guy all the way.

1121
00:55:47,277 --> 00:55:48,111
Easy money, man.

1122
00:55:48,178 --> 00:55:49,813
Johnny cash is the man, bro.

1123
00:55:49,879 --> 00:55:52,515
I know you like a little bit something
more modern.

1124
00:55:52,582 --> 00:55:53,883
Something like Taylor swift.

1125
00:55:53,950 --> 00:55:54,951
Guilty. Guilty.

1126
00:55:55,018 --> 00:55:57,220
You know I'm a swift, but,
Hey Briggs, Jensen,

1127
00:55:57,287 --> 00:55:59,656
after Fallon wins his battle royal,
you guys want to get some brewskies?

1128
00:55:59,723 --> 00:56:02,258
Now you're speaking our language.

1129
00:56:02,325 --> 00:56:03,393
Edris and Malik.

1130
00:56:04,894 --> 00:56:07,030
Y'all want to get some-- we'll catch up.

1131
00:56:07,230 --> 00:56:08,064
Yes.

1132
00:56:08,131 --> 00:56:08,965
That's all right.

1133
00:56:09,032 --> 00:56:10,366
Let's start then, boys.

1134
00:56:10,433 --> 00:56:11,401
Let's roll. Woo.

1135
00:56:11,468 --> 00:56:12,569
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

1136
00:56:12,769 --> 00:56:15,038
After this past week, clearly not.

1137
00:56:15,205 --> 00:56:16,439
Sweeten up, bro.

1138
00:56:19,809 --> 00:56:20,643
Don't worry, lads.

1139
00:56:20,877 --> 00:56:22,746
It doesn't matter if you're on
the same page or not.

1140
00:56:22,812 --> 00:56:24,614
You'd never beat us for our titles.

1141
00:56:25,315 --> 00:56:29,619
When you're on top like the gallus boys,
you don't have to play these stupid games.

1142
00:56:30,620 --> 00:56:31,488
Don't worry, bro.

1143
00:56:31,554 --> 00:56:32,422
At least you look good.

1144
00:56:32,589 --> 00:56:33,690
[laughs]

1145
00:56:37,026 --> 00:56:38,094
We're doing this, aren't we?

1146
00:56:38,161 --> 00:56:39,829
Oh, yes, me and you next week.

1147
00:56:41,498 --> 00:56:42,932
All right, I'll see you next week.

1148
00:56:43,399 --> 00:56:44,667
I know your birthday.

1149
00:56:44,734 --> 00:56:45,568
[chuckles]

1150
00:56:45,969 --> 00:56:46,803
Hey, Siri.

1151
00:56:46,870 --> 00:56:48,404
When is Malik Blade's birthday?

1152
00:56:50,573 --> 00:56:52,041
Look, your birthday
is march 1st, isn't it?

1153
00:56:53,109 --> 00:56:53,943
Yes.

1154
00:56:54,010 --> 00:56:54,844
When's mine?

1155
00:56:55,745 --> 00:56:56,579
I don't know.

1156
00:56:57,347 --> 00:56:58,314
Why would I know that?

1157
00:56:58,381 --> 00:56:59,215
Unreal.

1158
00:57:05,054 --> 00:57:05,889
[bell rings]

1159
00:57:06,156 --> 00:57:08,992
The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1160
00:57:09,359 --> 00:57:13,396
Introducing first, Eddy Thorpe.

1161
00:57:13,463 --> 00:57:17,901
Thorpe is done hearing the chirping from
his opponent here tonight.

1162
00:57:18,568 --> 00:57:20,069
That being Damon Kemp.

1163
00:57:21,070 --> 00:57:23,306
Thorpe looking to shut up Damon Kemp.

1164
00:57:23,373 --> 00:57:25,642
End the argument once and for all.

1165
00:57:25,809 --> 00:57:28,945
Or can Kemp overcome Thorpe here tonight.

1166
00:57:29,813 --> 00:57:32,782
Thorpe, Kemp one-on-one next.

1167
00:57:36,886 --> 00:57:37,720
Oh, my god.

1168
00:57:38,354 --> 00:57:41,324
Noam, I want to ask you about
Nathan Frazer's challenge from

1169
00:57:41,391 --> 00:57:43,893
earlier tonight, but the world still wants
to know about your group.

1170
00:57:44,727 --> 00:57:46,129
My group, McKenzie?

1171
00:57:46,196 --> 00:57:47,030
No, no, no.

1172
00:57:47,096 --> 00:57:48,231
This is our group.

1173
00:57:48,298 --> 00:57:51,100
When you're a supernova,
you have to be surrounded by stars,

1174
00:57:51,167 --> 00:57:52,302
and that's what you see here.

1175
00:57:52,368 --> 00:57:55,738
A collection of shooting stars with
unlimited potential.

1176
00:57:55,805 --> 00:57:56,639
That's right.

1177
00:57:56,706 --> 00:57:58,107
Starting with the main man Mensah here.

1178
00:57:58,174 --> 00:58:01,678
The Canadian great,
underappreciated and undervalued

1179
00:58:01,744 --> 00:58:03,546
for too long, but no more.

1180
00:58:04,013 --> 00:58:05,949
You see, Noam was the
one who believed in me.

1181
00:58:06,015 --> 00:58:07,917
-That's right.
-He put me on a premium live event,

1182
00:58:07,984 --> 00:58:08,918
and thanks to him,

1183
00:58:08,985 --> 00:58:11,554
I'm flying to a new stratosphere.

1184
00:58:11,721 --> 00:58:13,189
It's just the beginning.

1185
00:58:13,957 --> 00:58:15,291
Action, Ms. Jackson.

1186
00:58:15,358 --> 00:58:16,626
All about that action.

1187
00:58:16,693 --> 00:58:20,997
A world-class athlete, who by the way,
McKenzie, competed on the titan games.

1188
00:58:21,064 --> 00:58:24,167
Now, a titan in this game,
but I'm a mixture of sugar,

1189
00:58:24,234 --> 00:58:26,536
spice and everything that ain't so nice.

1190
00:58:26,603 --> 00:58:30,640
Heard that, and last but not least,
lash the legend.

1191
00:58:30,707 --> 00:58:31,541
The one and only.

1192
00:58:31,608 --> 00:58:36,679
She will beat you physically, emotionally,
mentally and heavily.

1193
00:58:36,746 --> 00:58:37,680
Future gold.

1194
00:58:37,747 --> 00:58:39,215
This lady is a future gold.

1195
00:58:39,616 --> 00:58:42,418
McKenzie, do you not know what's going on
right here?

1196
00:58:42,485 --> 00:58:45,855
This screen can't handle all this
brightness because we shine

1197
00:58:45,922 --> 00:58:47,156
and shine and-- that's right.

1198
00:58:47,223 --> 00:58:48,825
That's five trophies, one picture.

1199
00:58:50,727 --> 00:58:52,128
About Nathan's challenge.

1200
00:58:52,562 --> 00:58:55,865
-Oh my goodness
-if Nathan wants a cup match,

1201
00:58:56,132 --> 00:58:58,201
he would do well to remember two things.

1202
00:58:58,268 --> 00:59:01,070
One, I am never losing this cup.

1203
00:59:01,471 --> 00:59:06,643
Two, there is no stopping the metaphor.

1204
00:59:07,610 --> 00:59:08,444
Thank you.

1205
00:59:08,511 --> 00:59:09,445
Bye-bye.

1206
00:59:09,512 --> 00:59:11,147
-Please McKenzie.
-Check please.

1207
00:59:11,214 --> 00:59:12,215
Metaphor?

1208
00:59:14,751 --> 00:59:18,454
All I know is if that match
gets made official, that's a huge

1209
00:59:18,521 --> 00:59:20,123
championship match next week.

1210
00:59:20,189 --> 00:59:21,024
Oh, yes.

1211
00:59:21,090 --> 00:59:21,925
Let's do it.

1212
00:59:23,293 --> 00:59:27,130
Making his way to the ring, Damon Kemp.

1213
00:59:29,699 --> 00:59:30,934
Booker, let's go back.

1214
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:35,538
It was three weeks ago that these two went
one-on-one for the first time.

1215
00:59:35,605 --> 00:59:39,175
Look, it was quite a matchup,
and Damon Kemp right here and

1216
00:59:39,242 --> 00:59:41,811
some would say it was out of an act
of desperation trying to

1217
00:59:41,878 --> 00:59:44,580
grab anything he could to break the hold,
would turn around and

1218
00:59:44,647 --> 00:59:48,051
Thorpe would take full advantage
with a nice combination

1219
00:59:48,117 --> 00:59:49,319
to pick up the victory.

1220
00:59:49,385 --> 00:59:54,824
Since that moment, Damon Kemp
has called out Eddy Thorpe for cheating.

1221
00:59:54,891 --> 00:59:58,661
He's told everyone from security to
catering, Eddy cheated to win

1222
00:59:58,728 --> 01:00:00,496
in their first meeting.

1223
01:00:00,563 --> 01:00:01,798
Kemp knows, he knows.

1224
01:00:01,864 --> 01:00:03,132
He just got beat.

1225
01:00:03,566 --> 01:00:06,636
In his words, he got beat by a rookie.

1226
01:00:06,703 --> 01:00:08,104
I don't think he's a rookie, [bell rings]

1227
01:00:08,171 --> 01:00:10,573
a-but that's what he said.
-Oh, no, Thorpe is no rookie,

1228
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,343
also another superstar widely

1229
01:00:13,409 --> 01:00:17,447
regarded around the globe,
honed his craft in Japan,

1230
01:00:17,513 --> 01:00:21,484
here taking on Damon Kemp,
but I want to talk about just the issue

1231
01:00:21,551 --> 01:00:24,053
between these two because
when you take a look at Thorpe,

1232
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,890
he's a man who since arriving,
no matter what he's done prior to here,

1233
01:00:27,957 --> 01:00:30,226
continues to put in the work.

1234
01:00:30,293 --> 01:00:33,496
Lives in the gym, and Damon Kemp
looks down on that, but why?

1235
01:00:33,563 --> 01:00:36,199
-Why?
-This kid, he's a striker, Vic.

1236
01:00:36,265 --> 01:00:38,935
Like you said, he worked
in those dojos in Japan, so that

1237
01:00:39,002 --> 01:00:41,371
tells you a whole about his work ethic.

1238
01:00:41,437 --> 01:00:43,940
That might be it right there, jealousy.

1239
01:00:44,007 --> 01:00:45,308
Jealousy runs thick, man.

1240
01:00:46,009 --> 01:00:47,176
That's a great point, book,

1241
01:00:47,243 --> 01:00:50,446
when you take a look
at that jealousy word.

1242
01:00:50,513 --> 01:00:53,082
Nice offense by Thorpe,
knocking Kemp right back down.

1243
01:00:53,149 --> 01:00:54,350
Look, for Eddy Thorpe,

1244
01:00:54,417 --> 01:00:56,686
he takes a look around,
he has seen all of the chaos--

1245
01:00:56,753 --> 01:00:58,321
looking for a Boston crab right now.

1246
01:00:58,388 --> 01:00:59,656
Boom, man got caught.

1247
01:00:59,722 --> 01:01:02,191
He sees all of the chaos,
he sees free agents swarming in like

1248
01:01:02,258 --> 01:01:04,827
Dana Brooke who shocked us
all arriving tonight ahead of

1249
01:01:04,894 --> 01:01:06,295
our main huge main event later tonight

1250
01:01:06,362 --> 01:01:09,098
to determine the new number one contender
for Tiffany Stratton

1251
01:01:09,165 --> 01:01:10,466
and the NXT women's championship.

1252
01:01:10,533 --> 01:01:14,470
Thorpe knows there's opportunity,
and he needs to put Kent in the rear view.

1253
01:01:14,537 --> 01:01:19,008
Yes, put Kemp in the rearview--
you just can't think about one challenger.

1254
01:01:19,075 --> 01:01:21,244
You go out there and think about
getting that guy behind you

1255
01:01:21,310 --> 01:01:22,578
and moving on… into the cover--

1256
01:01:22,645 --> 01:01:23,713
Wow, so close.

1257
01:01:23,946 --> 01:01:29,318
A near fall for Damon Kemp
who now taking control of this matchup.

1258
01:01:29,385 --> 01:01:32,522
-Look, a big matchup.
-Can't wait for that.

1259
01:01:32,922 --> 01:01:36,325
Literally, Dabba-Kato, Scrypts,

1260
01:01:36,392 --> 01:01:38,861
coming up next at the conclusion
of this matchup.

1261
01:01:38,928 --> 01:01:42,031
Look at Kemp, big overhead
belly-to-belly toss.

1262
01:01:42,098 --> 01:01:45,435
Damon Kemp coming to work
a little more serious this week.

1263
01:01:45,501 --> 01:01:47,904
Got his eye on the prize,
and he's focused, Vic.

1264
01:01:47,970 --> 01:01:50,540
To your point, maybe Damon Kemp
needs to be a little bit more like

1265
01:01:50,606 --> 01:01:51,474
Eddy Thorpe.

1266
01:01:51,541 --> 01:01:53,576
Maybe he needs he needs to be in the gym
a little bit more, maybe

1267
01:01:53,643 --> 01:01:54,644
he needs to hone that craft.

1268
01:01:54,711 --> 01:01:57,413
You look at a kid like Damon Kemp,

1269
01:01:57,480 --> 01:02:00,483
he's well-versed in the
art of freestyle Greco-Roman.

1270
01:02:00,550 --> 01:02:04,821
He's from the university of Minnesota
and we know those Minnesota boys,

1271
01:02:04,887 --> 01:02:08,224
they got a lot of pride,
à la "ravishing" Rick rude.

1272
01:02:08,291 --> 01:02:10,526
Oh, yes, he got big shoes to fill, Vic.

1273
01:02:10,593 --> 01:02:12,662
Kemp trying to hold on,
Thorpe trying to battle him.

1274
01:02:12,729 --> 01:02:18,301
You talk a lot about-- oh-- a lot of that
backbreaker bending

1275
01:02:18,367 --> 01:02:19,402
the spine of Thorpe.

1276
01:02:19,469 --> 01:02:23,306
Kemp has done a lot of talking,
can he back it up here tonight

1277
01:02:23,372 --> 01:02:24,207
against Thorpe?

1278
01:02:24,273 --> 01:02:26,509
Take another look,
look at the spine just bend.

1279
01:02:26,576 --> 01:02:30,847
Also, actually, look at
the nasty landing for Thorpe off

1280
01:02:30,913 --> 01:02:32,281
that backbreaker as well.

1281
01:02:32,348 --> 01:02:33,182
No, no.

1282
01:02:33,249 --> 01:02:36,285
Like I said, Damon Kemp coming to work,
he got his hard hat on,

1283
01:02:36,352 --> 01:02:38,521
he's got his work boots on.

1284
01:02:38,588 --> 01:02:42,692
This is about business here tonight
with this young man Eddy Thorpe.

1285
01:02:42,759 --> 01:02:46,028
He's not going to slip on a banana peel,
so to speak.

1286
01:02:46,095 --> 01:02:48,097
This could also be a little bit deeper
than just business

1287
01:02:48,164 --> 01:02:49,532
because we have seen, and right now,

1288
01:02:49,599 --> 01:02:51,434
he's almost trying
to break Thorpe in half.

1289
01:02:51,501 --> 01:02:53,569
Continue to focus on that lower back.

1290
01:02:53,636 --> 01:02:56,606
Submission locked in by Kemp,
Thorpe continuing to fight.

1291
01:02:56,672 --> 01:03:00,143
We have seen Kemp confront
Thorpe even after his match with

1292
01:03:00,209 --> 01:03:02,745
Tyler bate about a month ago.

1293
01:03:03,012 --> 01:03:04,814
This is a little bit
deeper for Damon Kemp.

1294
01:03:04,881 --> 01:03:07,250
I like to go back to that
word you used, jealousy.

1295
01:03:07,316 --> 01:03:11,888
Jealousy runs deep in this business, Vic,
when you see a guy like Eddy Thorpe

1296
01:03:11,954 --> 01:03:15,391
come in the front door, and right now
he's got a whole lot of play.

1297
01:03:15,458 --> 01:03:17,293
You want to take it away from him, Vic.

1298
01:03:18,194 --> 01:03:19,862
I won't take anything away from anybody.

1299
01:03:19,929 --> 01:03:21,864
Not you personally, Damon Kemp.

1300
01:03:21,931 --> 01:03:23,065
Oh, I see what you're saying.

1301
01:03:23,132 --> 01:03:24,634
I thought you're trying to
throw me under the bus.

1302
01:03:24,700 --> 01:03:26,769
Oh, a nice elbow by Thorpe.

1303
01:03:26,836 --> 01:03:29,205
Thorpe coming right back,
and now Thorpe able to weather that

1304
01:03:29,272 --> 01:03:30,173
storm from Kemp.

1305
01:03:30,973 --> 01:03:35,545
Thorpe tonight wants to earn the victory
so there are no excuses for Kemp.

1306
01:03:35,611 --> 01:03:40,583
Thorpe now charging right in--
oh, got all of that elbow.

1307
01:03:40,650 --> 01:03:42,952
Into the cover, hook of the leg.

1308
01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:47,356
Damon Kemp, presence
of mind, foot on the rope.

1309
01:03:47,423 --> 01:03:48,858
Nice job by our official, [indistinct]

1310
01:03:48,925 --> 01:03:50,693
Irving, right spot, right time.

1311
01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:51,727
That was a mistake, Vic.

1312
01:03:51,794 --> 01:03:53,396
-That was a mistake.
-For who, Thorpe?

1313
01:03:53,462 --> 01:03:56,732
By Eddy Thorpe having right there
Damon Kemp just too close.

1314
01:03:56,799 --> 01:03:57,867
Got to know your ring position.

1315
01:03:57,934 --> 01:03:59,502
Now right back.

1316
01:03:59,569 --> 01:04:04,640
Speaking of ring position--
oh-- there in the center-- oh, center

1317
01:04:04,707 --> 01:04:08,110
of the ring for a moment now,
being able to turn things around.

1318
01:04:08,177 --> 01:04:11,380
These two-- oh, German suplex connects.

1319
01:04:11,447 --> 01:04:14,250
Into the cover, and Thorpe
earns another victory here tonight.

1320

Here is your winner, Eddy Thorpe.

1323
01:04:21,157 --> 01:04:22,325
Vic, did you see that?

1324
01:04:22,391 --> 01:04:25,695
Looked like Damon Kemp's
right foot was on the rope.

1325
01:04:25,761 --> 01:04:26,696
The referee missed that.

1326
01:04:26,762 --> 01:04:27,597
Well, hold on.

1327
01:04:28,431 --> 01:04:29,599
Back to this replay here.

1328
01:04:29,665 --> 01:04:31,934
-Great job by our--
-Right there, right there.

1329
01:04:34,003 --> 01:04:35,471
Very interesting.

-Come on.
-You see Kemp talking.

The way it's going to go down in
the books a victory for Eddy Thorpe.

1332
01:04:48,818 --> 01:04:50,186
My foot was on that rope.

1333
01:04:50,553 --> 01:04:51,988
Miles, tonight is my chance.

1334
01:04:52,054 --> 01:04:54,890
My first real chance to go
after the women's title on my own.

1335

Look, it doesn't matter
that I was in a weaponized steel cage

1336

match last week, okay?

1337
01:04:59,462 --> 01:05:00,963
The staples that are in my
head aren't going to stop me.

You know this.

Thanks.

1340
01:05:03,199 --> 01:05:04,033
I love you too.

-Bye
-That was the before-phone call.

I came short again,
but hey, we're used to it."

That's what I sound like to you?

Don't put unrealistic
thoughts in your brother's head

like you winning the battle royal.

An outcast like you with
your background and your emotions

will always fall short.

as it was any day over being

that Scrypts thanked Axiom?

You're already laughing,
so I don't even know if I want to

know the answer to this question.

01:06:50,039 --> 01:06:51,674
Reggie, okay?

1372
01:06:53,242 --> 01:06:54,677
You didn't answer the question.

1373
01:06:55,544 --> 01:06:58,247
Are you surprised
that Scrypts thanked Axiom,

1374
01:06:58,814 --> 01:06:59,915
Ring the bell. [bell rings]

1375
01:06:59,982 --> 01:07:02,184
No, I'm not.

1376
01:07:02,251 --> 01:07:06,655
I think Scrypts is looking for a friend,
he's looking for an ally.

1377
01:07:07,022 --> 01:07:08,157
I get it.

1378
01:07:09,558 --> 01:07:13,996
For Scrypts here tonight, speed, speed,
speed against Dabba-Kato.

1379
01:07:14,063 --> 01:07:16,031
What are you talking about, man? Speed.

1380
01:07:16,098 --> 01:07:20,236
He better go try and find a sledgehammer

1381
01:07:20,302 --> 01:07:24,340
or something because speed ain't going to
work tonight.

1382
01:07:24,707 --> 01:07:27,543
Well, Dabba-Kato was fuming the last
we saw him

1383
01:07:27,610 --> 01:07:32,681
when Scrypts made his presence known as
Dabba-Kato was continuing to

1384
01:07:33,149 --> 01:07:36,218
just beat up on Axiom
following their matchup.

1385
01:07:36,285 --> 01:07:39,622
Now Scrypts switching gears-- holy hell.

1386
01:07:42,625 --> 01:07:43,959

1387
01:07:44,427 --> 01:07:46,462
Talk about destruction, man.

1388
01:07:46,529 --> 01:07:47,630
Take another look.

1389
01:07:50,032 --> 01:07:51,200
Perfect timing on that boot too,

1390
01:07:51,267 --> 01:07:52,401
-by the way.
-You ain't kidding.

easy to do when you're 350-plus pounds.

Now, one more time with ease.

Taking out the Scrypts.

1394
01:08:02,178 --> 01:08:05,381
Taking out the Scrypts,
that's what this is called right here.

1395
01:08:07,316 --> 01:08:10,419
You can just feel like a hush
over the NXT universe

1396

because Dabba-Kato applying
the pressure here to Scrypts.

1397
01:08:15,891 --> 01:08:19,128
Scrypts might be rethinking the decision
to accept this matchup

1398
01:08:19,195 --> 01:08:20,029
here tonight.

1399
01:08:20,262 --> 01:08:23,599
You were talking about
why he was talking to Axiom?

1400
01:08:23,666 --> 01:08:27,369
He was looking for somebody
to perhaps run in and help him

1401
01:08:27,436 --> 01:08:30,606
tonight with this big man, Dabba-Kato.

1402
01:08:30,673 --> 01:08:33,742
As I mentioned, he did help Axiom
a few weeks back, stunned

1403

the massive Dabba-Kato for a moment.

1404
01:08:36,112 --> 01:08:38,347
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

1405

Tell me something, Vic,
answer this question, where is

1406
01:08:41,183 --> 01:08:42,384

1408

I'll answer.

1409

He's minding his own damn business.

1410

Here we go.

Oh, my god.

1413

Evil intentions in the mind of Dabba--
whoa.

1414
01:09:08,511 --> 01:09:09,612
That's Axiom.

1415

What the hell?

1416

Well, Axiom a man of
motion just got swatted.

1417
01:09:15,784 --> 01:09:20,556
Now Dabba-Kato back on the grind,
trying to grind down

1418
01:09:20,623 --> 01:09:22,825
Scrypts in this matchup.

1419
01:09:23,259 --> 01:09:25,394
Uh-oh.

1420

Axiom one more time.

1421
01:09:33,269 --> 01:09:34,303
So quick.

1422
01:09:34,770 --> 01:09:38,741
I think all that's happening
is Dabba-Kato is just getting more

1423
01:09:38,807 --> 01:09:39,909
angry by the moment.

1424
01:09:39,975 --> 01:09:43,612
Oh, and flying through
the air comes Scrypts.

1425
01:09:43,679 --> 01:09:47,616
Scrypts now with Dabba-Kato rocked,
reeling.

1426
01:09:49,251 --> 01:09:52,688
Into the cover, and Scrypts got him.

Dabba-Kato turning right around
and just swatting Axiom once again.

1431
01:10:12,508 --> 01:10:16,212
Maybe it wasn't the wisest
decision for these two.

1432
01:10:20,316 --> 01:10:22,818
This man's money, Vic.

1433
01:10:23,118 --> 01:10:28,123
You just see the intensity oozing
out of Dabba-Kato.

1434
01:10:32,995 --> 01:10:36,532
This is something that raised our
eyebrows, turning inside out

1435
01:10:36,599 --> 01:10:40,936
Scrypts, but let's be honest,
he was distracted by Axiom for a moment,

1436
01:10:41,003 --> 01:10:43,606
that opened the door for Scrypts.

1437
01:10:43,672 --> 01:10:46,942
Scrypts and Axiom,
they're not the best friends, we all know

1438
01:10:47,009 --> 01:10:50,079
that, we've seen them maybe
get a little bit closer here, though.

1439

Scrypts able to pull off what has
to be considered a mass upset,

1440
01:10:53,983 --> 01:10:58,954
but in the end,
look who's the one left standing.

1441
01:11:06,161 --> 01:11:09,898
This phony friendship
of Wes and Tyler makes me sick.

1442
01:11:09,965 --> 01:11:14,336
It's as pathetic as Ali's
positive mental attitude dribble.

1443
01:11:16,672 --> 01:11:20,676
Next week, we will expose
this union of convenience.

1444

We will.

tonight we reminded
everyone of our strength.

victory over the diamond mine.

You've shown the world
what the Schism can be.

I, on the other hand, I've fallen short.

I fell short tonight and
I lost at battleground.

1454
01:11:53,142 --> 01:11:54,443
I need to reflect.

1455
01:11:55,477 --> 01:11:56,979
I need to rectify.

01:16:45,834 --> 01:16:48,103
Talk about that free agent status.

1538
01:16:48,337 --> 01:16:52,407
How does Dana Brooke throw
a wrench into this matchup because

1539
01:16:52,474 --> 01:16:56,244
you take a look at all the women
that are in the ring, they didn't

1540
01:16:56,311 --> 01:16:59,348
foresee Dana Brooke making her arrival
here tonight.

1541
01:16:59,414 --> 01:17:02,417
They didn't think Monday night Raw's
Dana Brooke was going to be here.

1542
01:17:02,484 --> 01:17:05,087
Let me tell you something,
Dana Brooke is definitely not in

1543
01:17:05,153 --> 01:17:07,456
stealth mode, Vic.

1544
01:17:07,990 --> 01:17:09,891
She's all out there to be seen.

1545
01:17:11,593 --> 01:17:14,396
Again, over the top rope, [bell rings]

1546
01:17:14,463 --> 01:17:15,731
both feet must hit the floor.

1547
01:17:15,797 --> 01:17:16,932
That is how you are eliminated.

1548
01:17:16,999 --> 01:17:20,202
The last one that is standing,
they will be the number one

1549
01:17:20,268 --> 01:17:23,572
contender for Tiffany Stratton
and the NXT women's championship.

1550
01:17:23,872 --> 01:17:24,940
Vic, who's your pick?

1551
01:17:25,007 --> 01:17:26,608
That's not my job, book,
you're the analyst.

1552
01:17:26,675 --> 01:17:27,509
You're the star.

1553
01:17:27,576 --> 01:17:29,111
Who's your pick in the field?

1554
01:17:29,177 --> 01:17:31,013
As I say I got about four of them, man.

1555
01:17:31,079 --> 01:17:31,913
Four of them?

1556
01:17:31,980 --> 01:17:33,882
-Roxanne, Valkyria.
-Why don't you just pick

1557
01:17:33,949 --> 01:17:34,783
all of them, book?

1558
01:17:34,850 --> 01:17:38,987
You got a plethora of
talent in this ring, Vic.

1559
01:17:39,154 --> 01:17:42,224
Well, you talked about Gigi
and the last time Dolin and Jayne,

1560
01:17:42,290 --> 01:17:44,793
they both won the battle royal earlier
this year.

1561
01:17:44,860 --> 01:17:47,963
It is safe to say they're not going to be
on the same page here tonight.

1562
01:17:48,030 --> 01:17:49,131
I hate to say it, Vic.

1563
01:17:49,197 --> 01:17:51,299
I hate to say it, but that life is over,
but a win tonight,

1564
01:17:51,366 --> 01:17:55,103
it can make that life feel
like it never happened, man.

1565
01:17:55,170 --> 01:18:00,175
Oh, and Jayne picks up
the first elimination here tonight.

1566
01:18:01,143 --> 01:18:04,413
As the action continuing to spill,
there's going to be no friends,

1567
01:18:04,479 --> 01:18:06,748
maybe some short-term alliances.

1568
01:18:06,815 --> 01:18:10,218
Looking up from the desk there,
I see Thea hail, we know Andre Chase

1569
01:18:10,285 --> 01:18:13,488
still recovering, he's watching somewhere
very close.

1570
01:18:13,555 --> 01:18:15,357
Wait a minute,

1571
01:18:15,424 --> 01:18:17,259
Jakara Jackson,
she got caught by Oro Mensah.

1572
01:18:17,325 --> 01:18:18,827
-That's called an assist.
-How's that fair?

1573
01:18:18,894 --> 01:18:20,162
That's called an assist, Vic.

1574
01:18:20,962 --> 01:18:22,064
Whoa, whoa.

1575
01:18:22,330 --> 01:18:23,465
Oh, Cora Jade.

1576
01:18:27,135 --> 01:18:29,304
That's the one you got
to keep your eye on, Vic,

1577
01:18:29,371 --> 01:18:32,641
because she's one bad little sister.

1578
01:18:32,708 --> 01:18:34,109
You've said that in the past.

1579
01:18:34,176 --> 01:18:37,946
She gets an elimination here tonight
as vice sent to the back.

1580
01:18:38,013 --> 01:18:42,584
Again, once you're eliminated,
you are out, and already two eliminations.

1581
01:18:43,218 --> 01:18:46,254
As we see this match is starting
to dwindle down, congratulations

1582
01:18:46,321 --> 01:18:49,091
goes out to Becky Lynch, Zoey Stark,
they qualified on Raw for

1583
01:18:49,157 --> 01:18:51,393
the women's money in
the bank ladder match.

1584
01:18:51,460 --> 01:18:54,129
One woman will win a
life-changing opportunity,

1585
01:18:54,196 --> 01:18:57,032
a contract for a guaranteed
women's championship match

1586
01:18:57,099 --> 01:18:59,000
anywhere, anytime of their choosing.

1587
01:18:59,067 --> 01:19:01,203
Here tonight, these women fighting to face

1588
01:19:01,269 --> 01:19:03,672
Tiffany Stratton
for the NXT women's title.

1589
01:19:03,739 --> 01:19:07,409
As now Dolin looking for
elimination with Kiana James,

1590
01:19:07,476 --> 01:19:10,045
we saw these two going back
and forth earlier tonight.

1591
01:19:11,980 --> 01:19:14,282
Dolin has had so much happen-- oh, no.

1592
01:19:14,349 --> 01:19:15,283
Oh. No.

1593
01:19:15,350 --> 01:19:17,052
-Oh, come on.
-Come on.

1594
01:19:19,788 --> 01:19:21,656
That's heartbreaking for Gigi Dolin.

1595
01:19:21,723 --> 01:19:23,825
Definitely heartbreaking for Gigi,
because, like I said,

1596
01:19:23,892 --> 01:19:27,829
a win like could definitely make you feel
like you're on top of the world

1597
01:19:27,896 --> 01:19:30,799
because you know you got a shot
at the big league.

1598
01:19:30,866 --> 01:19:33,668
It looks like Kiana James is on top
of the world now

1599
01:19:33,735 --> 01:19:37,205
as the conniving one was able to
eliminate Gigi Dolin from the fray.

1600
01:19:37,272 --> 01:19:41,109
You take a look at the field right now--
ooh, landing on her feet here.

1601
01:19:41,176 --> 01:19:42,777
Look at lash legend right now.

1602
01:19:44,379 --> 01:19:45,413
Look at Jordynne.

1603
01:19:45,480 --> 01:19:46,348
Great balance there.

1604
01:19:46,414 --> 01:19:49,484
Great balance, great athleticism,
got wiped out and

1605
01:19:49,551 --> 01:19:51,386
we talked about short-term alliances.

1606
01:19:51,453 --> 01:19:55,423
Lash legend and Jakara Jackson,
they will be on each other's

1607
01:19:55,490 --> 01:19:58,326
-side through this entire process.
-Completely overlooked there.

1608
01:19:58,393 --> 01:20:00,495
Jordynne did a little too much right
there, Vic.

1609
01:20:00,562 --> 01:20:04,900
Showing a lot of athleticism, but just got
caught watching the paint dry.

1610
01:20:04,966 --> 01:20:07,169
There's Fallon Henley. Look at Fallon
Henley swinging away.

1611
01:20:07,235 --> 01:20:10,806
Roxanne Perez and now Henley trying
to get her hands on Jakara Jackson.

1612
01:20:10,872 --> 01:20:12,374
Jackson lifted in the air.

1613
01:20:12,440 --> 01:20:14,176
She's over the top rope. There's Mensah.

1614
01:20:14,242 --> 01:20:15,277
Mensah saved her once.

1615
01:20:15,510 --> 01:20:17,179
Can Mensah save her twice?

1616
01:20:20,015 --> 01:20:21,049
Oh.

1617
01:20:23,985 --> 01:20:25,353
Oh, wait a minute.

1618
01:20:26,188 --> 01:20:27,189
Hail,

1619
01:20:31,126 --> 01:20:36,131
and I don't believe that Thea hail
did not go over just like lash legend.

1620
01:20:36,198 --> 01:20:37,699
They didn't go over the top rope.

1621
01:20:37,766 --> 01:20:40,202
They saw their opportunities,
they picked their spots,

1622
01:20:40,268 --> 01:20:41,336
they saw their moment.

1623
01:20:41,403 --> 01:20:42,838
Thea hail

1624
01:20:42,904 --> 01:20:48,443
may be regretting her decision,
but Jakara Jackson is

1625
01:20:48,510 --> 01:20:51,146
eliminated from this matchup.

1626
01:20:51,213 --> 01:20:53,715
Talk about picking your spot, Vic.

1627
01:20:53,782 --> 01:20:55,183
Look at Roxanne Perez.

1628
01:20:55,250 --> 01:20:56,484
Perez teetering as well.

1629
01:20:56,551 --> 01:20:58,186
You see Elektra Lopez.

1630
01:20:58,253 --> 01:20:59,354
Now, wait a minute.

1631
01:20:59,421 --> 01:21:06,127
Feroz, Leon working together.

1632
01:21:06,194 --> 01:21:07,329
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

1633
01:21:07,395 --> 01:21:09,097
Another team in the fray.

1634
01:21:09,164 --> 01:21:10,565
Legend teetering.

1635
01:21:11,967 --> 01:21:16,471
Legend right now all the strength
in this matchup, but Leon.

1636
01:21:18,440 --> 01:21:21,076
She did go over the top rope, book.

1637
01:21:21,142 --> 01:21:22,944
-That's an important thing
-Yes, she did.

1638
01:21:23,011 --> 01:21:24,012
to remember in this moment.

1639
01:21:24,079 --> 01:21:25,380
Oh, legend, she's teetering.

1640
01:21:26,314 --> 01:21:28,850
A little teamwork and legend's gone.

1641
01:21:31,987 --> 01:21:32,988
Legend is out.

1642
01:21:34,589 --> 01:21:35,490
Wait a minute.

1643
01:21:35,557 --> 01:21:38,793
Remember, Leon, feroz
went over the top rope.

1644
01:21:38,860 --> 01:21:40,095
They have now been eliminated.

1645
01:21:40,161 --> 01:21:41,196
The field is shrinking.

1646
01:21:41,396 --> 01:21:42,697
Who's going to face Stratton?

1647
01:21:42,764 --> 01:21:44,432
Who's going to win the battle royal?

1648
01:21:44,499 --> 01:21:45,700
Don't miss a second of the action.

1649
01:21:48,670 --> 01:21:50,071
Back live on NXT.

1650
01:21:50,138 --> 01:21:52,574
As you witnessed throughout
the commercial break.

1651
01:21:53,608 --> 01:21:54,876
Blair Davenport.

1652
01:21:55,210 --> 01:21:57,512
The battle royal, the number one
contender's battle royal

1653
01:21:57,579 --> 01:22:00,415
continuing on as the field
certainly has shrunk.

1654
01:22:01,216 --> 01:22:02,517
Eight women left.

1655
01:22:02,584 --> 01:22:06,087
Roxanne Perez, a former NXT women's
champion among the field

1656
01:22:06,154 --> 01:22:07,622
along with Jacy Jayne.

1657
01:22:07,689 --> 01:22:11,726
Right now, it is Perez taking it to Jayne,
taking it to James,

1658
01:22:11,793 --> 01:22:13,528
and there is Cora Jade.

1659
01:22:13,595 --> 01:22:15,897
Jade now gets caught and dropped.

1660
01:22:15,964 --> 01:22:20,502
You have to be thrown over the top rope,
both feet must hit the floor.

1661
01:22:20,568 --> 01:22:21,536
Wait a minute.

1662
01:22:21,603 --> 01:22:23,905
Perez looking right at Blair Davenport.

1663
01:22:23,972 --> 01:22:27,142
She didn't go over the top rope,
but she's right at Davenport.

1664
01:22:27,208 --> 01:22:30,011
Remember, it was Davenport
who attacked Roxanne Perez

1665
01:22:30,078 --> 01:22:31,913
several weeks ago here on NXT.

1666
01:22:31,980 --> 01:22:33,415
The payback right here, Vic.

1667
01:22:33,481 --> 01:22:36,084
I like the attitude from Roxanne Perez.

1668
01:22:36,151 --> 01:22:37,052
Oh, yes.

1669
01:22:37,118 --> 01:22:40,622
Perez hasn't forgotten that moment,
and looking for pop rocks.

1670
01:22:43,291 --> 01:22:44,793
It's Tatum paxley.

1671
01:22:48,530 --> 01:22:49,931
You heard the official.

1672
01:22:49,998 --> 01:22:51,366
Paxley's been eliminated.

1673
01:22:51,433 --> 01:22:55,170
Paxley just sacrificed herself
for Blair Davenport?

1674
01:22:55,337 --> 01:22:56,504
Come on, Vic.

1675
01:22:56,738 --> 01:22:58,773
Now a beatdown to Perez.

1676
01:23:02,210 --> 01:23:03,778
Perez back into this matchup.

1677
01:23:03,845 --> 01:23:05,613
Again, she did not go over the top rope.

1678
01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:10,185
Tatum Paxley did, and then sacrificed
herself to take out Perez.

1679
01:23:10,251 --> 01:23:14,956
Not only took out Perez outside the ring,
took out Roxanne Perez

1680
01:23:15,023 --> 01:23:20,462
moments ago, even though Jacy Jayne
gets credited with the elimination.

1681
01:23:20,528 --> 01:23:21,930
What a way to get taken out.

1682
01:23:22,464 --> 01:23:24,799
That was a vulnerable Roxanne Perez, Vic.

1683
01:23:24,866 --> 01:23:25,867
Come on.

1684
01:23:25,934 --> 01:23:30,605
Oh, there's Lyra Valkyria
who Tiffany Stratton picked to win

1685
01:23:30,672 --> 01:23:31,873
this battle royal.

1686
01:23:32,340 --> 01:23:36,644
Picked Valkyria to be the first
to face Stratton for the NXT

1687
01:23:36,711 --> 01:23:39,247
women's championship,
and that is Dana Brooke,

1688
01:23:39,314 --> 01:23:41,783
the free agent Dana Brooke
from Monday night raw,

1689
01:23:41,850 --> 01:23:45,320
trying to seek her
opportunity here on NXT.

1690
01:23:45,387 --> 01:23:47,122
As Fallon Henley just got dropped.

1691
01:23:47,188 --> 01:23:49,057
Booker, look who is standing.

1692
01:23:49,391 --> 01:23:52,794
Yes. If anybody got a lot of
momentum, it's Valkyria.

1693
01:23:53,094 --> 01:23:55,663
So close to actually becoming champion.

1694
01:23:55,730 --> 01:23:58,933
Can cash her ticket here
tonight for one more run.

1695
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:00,502
Fallon Henley back into this matchup.

1696
01:24:00,568 --> 01:24:02,404
Valkyria's gone over the top.

1697
01:24:02,470 --> 01:24:03,371
Toes didn't touch.

1698
01:24:04,606 --> 01:24:06,374
Trying to make her
way back into the match.

1699
01:24:06,441 --> 01:24:07,742
Oh, no.

1700
01:24:07,809 --> 01:24:10,111
Jayne's feet did hit.

1701
01:24:10,178 --> 01:24:12,080
-Jayne has been eliminated.
-Wow.

1702
01:24:17,118 --> 01:24:19,187
How good that's got to feel for Jade.

1703
01:24:19,254 --> 01:24:24,025
Jade was eliminated in a battle royal
earlier this year by Lyra Valkyria,

1704
01:24:24,092 --> 01:24:27,062
but now we are down to the final four,
Henley--

1705
01:24:28,363 --> 01:24:30,165
my pick's been knocked out, Vic.

1706
01:24:30,632 --> 01:24:32,734
Dana Brooke, Kiana James, and Cora Jade.

1707
01:24:32,801 --> 01:24:33,701
Here we go.

1708
01:24:34,702 --> 01:24:36,204
It's a race to the finish right now, Vic.

1709
01:24:39,474 --> 01:24:40,442
Meeting of the minds.

1710
01:24:40,508 --> 01:24:42,410
Which one of these women will win?

1711
01:24:42,477 --> 01:24:46,181
Which one will be named the number one
contender to the NXT

1712
01:24:46,247 --> 01:24:47,449
women's championship?

1713
01:24:47,515 --> 01:24:48,883
Will it be Henley?

1714
01:24:49,717 --> 01:24:51,085
Big blockbuster.

1715
01:24:53,121 --> 01:24:53,955
Again, book.

1716
01:24:54,022 --> 01:24:56,791
Over the top rope, both feet must
hit the floor,

1717
01:24:56,858 --> 01:25:00,962
and there's Kiana James, and there's
no love lost between these two dating

1718
01:25:01,029 --> 01:25:02,197
back to last year.

1719
01:25:02,263 --> 01:25:05,700
Yes, but two ladies that knows what it
means to be champion as well, Vic.

1720
01:25:05,767 --> 01:25:07,202
They've tasted it before.

1721
01:25:08,136 --> 01:25:09,737
Hang on, hang on.

1722
01:25:09,804 --> 01:25:11,906
Hanging on by a thread.
Look at Kiana James.

1723
01:25:11,973 --> 01:25:13,975
Oh, James would love to eliminate Henley.

1724
01:25:14,042 --> 01:25:14,876
Wait a minute.

1725
01:25:14,943 --> 01:25:16,411
Wow.

1726
01:25:21,883 --> 01:25:23,151
Dana Brooke charging in.

1727
01:25:23,218 --> 01:25:24,519
From four, we're down to three.

1728
01:25:28,857 --> 01:25:32,060
Oh, big right, followed by another.

1729
01:25:32,126 --> 01:25:36,431
Dana Brooke from Monday night raw.

1730
01:25:36,498 --> 01:25:38,700
Can she seize the opportunity?

1731
01:25:39,033 --> 01:25:40,602
A season pro right there, Vic.

1732
01:25:41,202 --> 01:25:43,671
That veteran experience.

1733
01:25:44,339 --> 01:25:47,242
Dana Brooke who has been a champion
in WWE before.

1734
01:25:47,308 --> 01:25:50,912
Can she secure a spot here on NXT?

1735
01:25:50,979 --> 01:25:52,480
Ran in, gets caught.

1736
01:25:52,547 --> 01:25:54,883
Henley trying to eliminate Dana Brooke.

1737
01:25:54,949 --> 01:25:55,917
Cora Jade from behind.

1738
01:25:55,984 --> 01:25:57,185
Henley's out, Henley's out.

1739
01:25:57,252 --> 01:25:58,853
Jade now gets Brooke over the top.

1740
01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:01,523
One of these two women will be
the number one contender.

1741
01:26:02,357 --> 01:26:03,858
Dana Brooke fighting with everything.

1742
01:26:03,925 --> 01:26:04,792
Gets caught.

1743
01:26:04,859 --> 01:26:07,629
She didn't establish herself back
into the ring, Booker.

1744
01:26:07,695 --> 01:26:09,097
Her feet are almost there.

1745
01:26:09,164 --> 01:26:11,766
Jade trying, trying.

1746
01:26:12,033 --> 01:26:14,802
Oh, big kick by Dana Brooke.

1747
01:26:15,436 --> 01:26:19,440
Dana Brooke rallying in this moment.

1748
01:26:19,507 --> 01:26:21,175
Brooke charging in.

1749
01:26:26,314 --> 01:26:27,182
Wait.

1750
01:26:30,318 --> 01:26:31,286
That's right, Booker.

1751
01:26:31,853 --> 01:26:33,621
Thea hail didn't get eliminated.

1752
01:26:33,688 --> 01:26:35,323
Thea hail is back.

1753
01:26:36,558 --> 01:26:38,259
It's not two, it's three.

1754
01:26:39,928 --> 01:26:45,266
[crowd chants "chase u"]

1755
01:26:48,269 --> 01:26:49,571
Look who's working together.

1756
01:26:49,637 --> 01:26:54,042
Cora Jade who has ran down
every woman she's ever come across.

1757
01:26:54,309 --> 01:26:55,777
Paying for that here tonight.

1758
01:26:57,011 --> 01:26:59,380
Hail, Brooke trying to get up Jade.

1759
01:26:59,447 --> 01:27:01,282
Trying to weasel her way free.

1760
01:27:01,849 --> 01:27:03,284
Whoa.

1761
01:27:04,752 --> 01:27:07,689
Book, there are no friends
in a battle royal, we know that.

1762
01:27:09,023 --> 01:27:10,558
Everybody's on their own out here, Vic.

1763
01:27:10,625 --> 01:27:12,627
This time hail did go over the top rope.

1764
01:27:12,694 --> 01:27:13,695
Hail with one arm.

1765
01:27:13,761 --> 01:27:15,630
Hanging on by five digits.

1766
01:27:17,899 --> 01:27:19,634
Big right by Brooke.

1767
01:27:20,101 --> 01:27:23,538
That's allowing hail to get back
to her feet and get back into

1768
01:27:23,605 --> 01:27:24,439
the matchup.

1769
01:27:24,505 --> 01:27:26,574
As the field staying at three.

1770
01:27:28,076 --> 01:27:30,044
Oh, look at Dana Brooke now.

1771
01:27:30,511 --> 01:27:31,946
Brooke rocking and rolling.

1772
01:27:36,084 --> 01:27:38,753
I wonder what is going through
the mind of Tiffany Stratton at

1773
01:27:38,820 --> 01:27:42,423
this moment, because it
was Stratton who made this matchup.

1774
01:27:42,490 --> 01:27:44,792
It was Stratton who called
for this battle royal.

1775
01:27:44,859 --> 01:27:45,693
Wait a minute.

1776
01:27:45,960 --> 01:27:48,363
Hail did it.

1777
01:27:48,429 --> 01:27:49,764
[bell rings]

1778
01:27:49,831 --> 01:27:51,432
[Chase university's music plays]

1779
01:27:51,499 --> 01:27:56,504
Here is your winner, Thea Hail.

1780
01:27:56,571 --> 01:27:58,206
Hail to Thea.

1781
01:27:58,273 --> 01:27:59,807
Can you believe it, Booker?

1782
01:28:00,608 --> 01:28:02,710
Chase U is going nuts.

1783
01:28:03,344 --> 01:28:06,814
Oh, what a party in the quad,
this is going to be.

1784
01:28:14,489 --> 01:28:18,893
Drew and Charlie had been teaching
a couple extra reps for Thea hail,

1785
01:28:18,960 --> 01:28:22,930
and there you see Chase U,
there you see the Cavinder Twins,

1786
01:28:22,997 --> 01:28:28,069
Haley, Hanna, WWE NIL athlete university
of Miami basketball standouts

1787
01:28:28,136 --> 01:28:32,674
joining the celebration for this matchup
because let's go back.

1788
01:28:32,740 --> 01:28:34,742
Book, we thought it was down to two.

1789
01:28:35,009 --> 01:28:37,412
Thea hail hadn't been eliminated yet.

1790
01:28:37,478 --> 01:28:41,749
Thea hail went through the ropes
who was dropped by Lash Legend.

1791
01:28:42,183 --> 01:28:45,620
Picked her spot to join the match,
overcame the odds,

1792
01:28:46,020 --> 01:28:50,958
double elimination to overcome to win.

1793
01:28:51,025 --> 01:28:55,029
Andre chase somewhere has to be all smiles

1794
01:28:55,096 --> 01:29:00,601
because Thea Hail is proof that
if you have confidence and work ethic

1795
01:29:00,668 --> 01:29:06,441
you can make any dream come true,
and is now one win from the championship.

1796
01:29:07,675 --> 01:29:12,680
The top of the class looking
to topple Tiffany for the gold.

1797
01:29:15,883 --> 01:29:18,753
We talk about tonight, how about
what's going to happen next week?

1798
01:29:19,120 --> 01:29:23,624
Huge six-man tag team match,
Mustafa Ali, Tyler bate,

1799
01:29:23,691 --> 01:29:27,428
North American champion, Wes Lee,
have gotten under the skin of Schism.

1800
01:29:27,495 --> 01:29:30,598
Which trio is going to stand tall?

1801
01:29:30,665 --> 01:29:34,135
We saw Baron Corbin run
down the entire NXT locker room,

1802
01:29:34,302 --> 01:29:38,072
including Ilja Dragunov,
but what is the medical status of

1803
01:29:38,139 --> 01:29:41,042
Dragunov who was attacked
by Bron Breakker?

1804
01:29:41,109 --> 01:29:42,110
These two meet.

1805
01:29:42,176 --> 01:29:45,380
For the first time ever on NXT TV,
the heritage cup will be

1806
01:29:45,446 --> 01:29:49,016
defended as Noam Dar faces Nathan Frazer.

1807
01:29:49,083 --> 01:29:51,886
It's all going down live next week.

1808
01:29:54,288 --> 01:29:58,893
Book, I'm understanding Bron--
cameras are catching up with

1809
01:29:58,960 --> 01:30:00,294
Bron Breakker right now?

1810
01:30:04,832 --> 01:30:08,402
Bron, Bron, why did attack Ilja Dragunov?

1811
01:30:08,703 --> 01:30:10,104
Why did I attack Ilja Dragunov?

1812
01:30:10,171 --> 01:30:13,207
Because I'm not going to
let Ilja spit out some garbage about

1813
01:30:13,274 --> 01:30:16,010
how he's the most intense guy in WWE.

1814
01:30:16,077 --> 01:30:16,978
Are you kidding?

1815
01:30:17,545 --> 01:30:19,714
I'm going to start holding
everyone accountable,

1816
01:30:19,781 --> 01:30:22,183
all the way from the top to
the bottom, all right?

1817
01:30:22,450 --> 01:30:26,053
Speaking of all the way at the top,
how about our WWE world

1818
01:30:26,120 --> 01:30:29,323
heavyweight champion, Seth
"freakin" Rollins, Monday night

1819
01:30:29,390 --> 01:30:32,560
Rollins, the workhorse of WWE?

1820
01:30:33,194 --> 01:30:34,128
You know what?

1821
01:30:34,529 --> 01:30:35,563
How about you prove it?

1822
01:30:35,963 --> 01:30:38,933
Because you're pretty
familiar with how we do things here,

1823
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:41,969
because you were
the first-ever NXT champion,

1824
01:30:42,036 --> 01:30:45,473
and I was the most dominant NXT champion.

1825
01:30:45,540 --> 01:30:47,542
Why don't you come here

1826
01:30:47,608 --> 01:30:52,713
and put the WWE world heavyweight
championship on the line against me?

1827
01:30:55,583 --> 01:30:58,920
Subtitles: Pawan Gurjar
avyweight
championship on the line against me?
