1
00:00:03,737 --> 00:00:04,738
[announcer] Then,

2
00:00:05,672 --> 00:00:07,674
[epic music playing]

3
00:00:08,208 --> 00:00:09,209
now,

4
00:00:14,214 --> 00:00:15,215
forever

5
00:00:23,590 --> 00:00:24,591
together.

6
00:00:31,564 --> 00:00:32,565
Thirty minutes late?

7
00:00:32,632 --> 00:00:33,933
-What's the deal?
-Great.

8
00:00:34,934 --> 00:00:37,470
Oh, there he is. Perfect.

9
00:00:41,107 --> 00:00:46,513
Wow. All of this for "All Ego".
I feel special, Ava.

10
00:00:46,579 --> 00:00:48,681
You really know how to treat a free agent.

11
00:00:48,748 --> 00:00:50,583
You ready to actually iron out this deal?

12
00:00:50,650 --> 00:00:53,053
-Are you?
-Give Ethan Page what he's looking for?

13
00:00:53,119 --> 00:00:54,654
-Let's go.
-All right,

14
00:00:55,622 --> 00:00:57,524
Stay close to me tonight.

15
00:00:57,590 --> 00:00:58,525
Whatever you need.

16
00:01:03,797 --> 00:01:10,370
[announcer] We been waiting
and anticipating this very moment.

17
00:01:10,437 --> 00:01:17,177
[hostess] The hit dropping, show stopping,
chain wearing, Sexy Red.

18
00:01:17,710 --> 00:01:19,212
Drum roll, please.

19
00:01:21,081 --> 00:01:23,283
I will be hosting the Battlegrounds.

20
00:01:23,349 --> 00:01:24,350
[Victor] Wow!

21
00:01:24,884 --> 00:01:29,055
There it is. The Women's
North American Championship.

22
00:01:29,122 --> 00:01:30,857
Hold on. Hey. So, hold on.

23
00:01:30,924 --> 00:01:34,494
Since you the host of Battleground,
you might as well come out with…

24
00:01:34,561 --> 00:01:36,496
me and the chips
and I guess Gallus.

25
00:01:36,563 --> 00:01:37,430
Follow me.

26
00:01:38,364 --> 00:01:40,900
[Victor] In Sexy they trust tonight.

27
00:01:40,967 --> 00:01:43,937
That being Williams and Evans.
This place is shaking.

28
00:01:44,003 --> 00:01:45,939
This place has come alive.

29
00:01:47,841 --> 00:01:53,680
Whoa, whoa. Wait a minute.
Hey, Sexy Red running some interference.

30
00:01:57,750 --> 00:02:01,788
Victory for Trick Williams
and Je'Von Evans.

31
00:02:02,322 --> 00:02:06,893
-Well, that's Lash Legend.
-Trick, you gotta be honest with me.

32
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,263
Were you the one
that attacked Noam and Oro?

33
00:02:11,664 --> 00:02:14,200
Hey, yo, look, Lash, I don't--

34
00:02:18,638 --> 00:02:20,140
Who the hell is that?

35
00:02:21,241 --> 00:02:25,311
Oh, my God! Booker, that's Ethan Page!

36
00:02:25,378 --> 00:02:29,349
Hey, Trick. I took out Noam.

37
00:02:29,415 --> 00:02:31,184
I took out Oro.

38
00:02:31,985 --> 00:02:35,788
Whoop that, Trick. Yeah, I'm about to.

39
00:02:38,992 --> 00:02:41,928
[Victor] Page truly is "All Ego".

40
00:02:44,898 --> 00:02:50,003
I find it really, really disrespectful
that I have to come out here and find out

41
00:02:50,069 --> 00:02:52,205
who my Battleground opponent is like this.

42
00:02:52,272 --> 00:02:53,773
I deserve better.

43
00:02:54,874 --> 00:02:59,479
You will be defending
that Women's Championship against…

44
00:03:01,347 --> 00:03:03,349
[sirens]

45
00:03:08,821 --> 00:03:10,857
[Jordynne] Let me officially
introduce myself.

46
00:03:10,924 --> 00:03:16,796
I'm the TNA Knockout Champion,
Jordynne Grace.

47
00:03:16,863 --> 00:03:21,434
[Booker] Perhaps the most powerful
woman to ever grace this business.

48
00:03:21,501 --> 00:03:26,506
You have built your name here NXT,
the same as I have in TNA.

49
00:03:27,106 --> 00:03:31,811
But I'm curious, who do you think
has built a stronger foundation?

50
00:03:32,845 --> 00:03:36,349
I want to find out. So at Battleground,

51
00:03:36,516 --> 00:03:42,055
I'm going to be challenging you
for your NXT Women's Championship.

52
00:03:47,427 --> 00:03:49,028
-[sirens]
-[Victor] Well, Booker,

53
00:03:49,095 --> 00:03:52,565
off the heels of last week's
explosive NXT,

54
00:03:52,632 --> 00:03:55,034
we're wasting no time tonight.

55
00:03:56,236 --> 00:03:57,337
[bell rings]

56
00:03:57,403 --> 00:04:01,207
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

57
00:04:01,274 --> 00:04:07,046
Introducing first, she is the TNA
Knockouts champion,

58
00:04:07,113 --> 00:04:10,183
Jordynne Grace!

59
00:04:10,817 --> 00:04:14,287
[Victor] I still can't over
what Mike Rome just said.

60
00:04:14,354 --> 00:04:19,158
Jordynne Grace. Yes.
A TNA superstar, a TNA wrestler

61
00:04:19,225 --> 00:04:23,096
shocked the world
of professional wrestling last week.

62
00:04:23,162 --> 00:04:24,464
Can she do it again?

63
00:04:24,530 --> 00:04:28,268
Can Grace, the TNA Knockouts champion,
make the most of her historic

64
00:04:28,334 --> 00:04:33,306
championship opportunity? Or will Perez
live up to the moniker of prodigy?

65
00:04:33,373 --> 00:04:35,575
NXT Women's title on the line at NXT

66
00:04:35,642 --> 00:04:39,712
Battleground this Sunday,
exclusively on Peacock.

67
00:04:43,049 --> 00:04:46,052
[intense music playing]

68
00:04:48,688 --> 00:04:52,825
And her opponent, Stevie Turner.

69
00:04:53,526 --> 00:04:58,498
After that announcement, Book,
Stevie Turner showed her frustration.

70
00:04:58,564 --> 00:05:00,033
She is frustrated.

71
00:05:00,099 --> 00:05:02,902
She marched
right into our general manager, Ava.

72
00:05:04,270 --> 00:05:07,607
-[Booker] Hold the phone, dog.
-[Victor] Well, I'm sure

73
00:05:08,308 --> 00:05:10,843
Turner's gonna be even more frustrated.

74
00:05:13,346 --> 00:05:15,381
-[Booker] "The Prodigy"
-[Victor] Couldn't even get in.

75
00:05:15,448 --> 00:05:18,318
She couldn't even allow
Stevie Turner to have an entrance.

76
00:05:18,751 --> 00:05:21,754
-She had to come out here.
-[Booker] Please.

77
00:05:21,821 --> 00:05:25,858
-Please what?
-Give the Champ her respect, okay?

78
00:05:25,925 --> 00:05:28,528
-Please do that for me.
-Booker, I have given her…

79
00:05:28,594 --> 00:05:30,830
-Please.
-I have given her her respect.

80
00:05:30,897 --> 00:05:32,365
I have given her her respect!

81
00:05:32,432 --> 00:05:35,435
-Roxanne, how you doing?
-I have given her her respect.

82
00:05:35,501 --> 00:05:38,705
[Victor] I´m not even going to try
for a handshake at this point.

83
00:05:39,472 --> 00:05:42,075
That's nice.
You got your buddy out here now?

84
00:05:42,141 --> 00:05:45,311
-Not a buddy.
-Go ahead, have fun.

85
00:05:45,378 --> 00:05:46,479
I'll just sit back.

86
00:05:46,546 --> 00:05:48,314
[Booker] It's all about the talent
of "the Prodigy",

87
00:05:48,381 --> 00:05:50,817
what she did over these last few months.

88
00:05:50,883 --> 00:05:54,387
She went out there and showed the world
that she's truly the best.

89
00:05:54,454 --> 00:05:55,521
[Victor]
Five minutes into the show,

90
00:05:55,588 --> 00:05:57,457
and we're already bickering
like an old married couple.

91
00:05:57,523 --> 00:05:58,725
[Roxanne] Booker knows.

92
00:05:58,791 --> 00:06:00,560
-[Victor] Here we go.
-[Roxanne] What was your name again?

93
00:06:00,626 --> 00:06:01,694
Victor, I appreciate that.

94
00:06:01,761 --> 00:06:05,998
Well, what I do want to ask you, though,
Roxanne, is why do you think

95
00:06:06,065 --> 00:06:08,034
Ava is against you?

96
00:06:08,101 --> 00:06:09,469
-Yeah.
-Week and week.

97
00:06:09,535 --> 00:06:11,237
I'm asking the same question, but…

98
00:06:11,304 --> 00:06:14,640
probably because she's jealous of me.
Because she wants what she can't have.

99
00:06:14,707 --> 00:06:17,009
She probably wants my NXT
Women's Championship too.

100
00:06:18,144 --> 00:06:19,145
[Booker] Wow!

101
00:06:19,212 --> 00:06:22,682
[Victor] Right now, it's Jordynne Grace
showing the world what she can do.

102
00:06:22,749 --> 00:06:24,784
Booker, what were your first thoughts

103
00:06:24,851 --> 00:06:28,688
when you saw Grace revealed
as Ava's choice to face Roxanne?

104
00:06:28,755 --> 00:06:30,022
[Booker] Make no mistake.

105
00:06:30,089 --> 00:06:32,058
Jordynne Grace, she is one of the best.

106
00:06:32,125 --> 00:06:33,426
She's a game changer.

107
00:06:33,493 --> 00:06:35,661
But on Sunday night,
she's gonna be in the ring

108
00:06:35,728 --> 00:06:40,299
with truly the best right here in NXT.
And that's the lady to my left.

109
00:06:40,366 --> 00:06:42,702
Roxanne "the Prodigy" Perez.

110
00:06:42,769 --> 00:06:45,004
Jordynne Grace… Target acquire!

111
00:06:45,071 --> 00:06:49,542
Grace has been undefeated for 300 days,
unstoppable for nearly a year.

112
00:06:49,609 --> 00:06:52,345
And this is quite the opportunity
for Stevie Turner.

113
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:54,013
We've seen some of the strength.

114
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,082
Booker, you've talked
about Jordynne Grace's strength.

115
00:06:56,149 --> 00:07:00,653
Roxanne, how are you gonna bat
that strength at Battleground?

116
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,723
[Roxanne] Are you calling me weak?
Is that what you're doing?

117
00:07:03,790 --> 00:07:06,092
Are you calling me weak?
He's calling me weak.

118
00:07:06,159 --> 00:07:09,929
Do you know what I've been through
the past two… actually, past nine years?

119
00:07:09,996 --> 00:07:14,033
I used to ride a greyhound to book her
school for this NXT Women's Championship.

120
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:16,068
[Booker] It is not about being strong.

121
00:07:16,135 --> 00:07:18,571
It's about being smart.
That's what's Roxanne,

122
00:07:18,638 --> 00:07:20,606
she's a psychologist.

123
00:07:20,673 --> 00:07:23,242
In the middle of that ring,
she can pick you apart

124
00:07:23,309 --> 00:07:26,646
piece by piece.
And I cannot wait til Sunday night.

125
00:07:26,712 --> 00:07:27,914
[Victor] I could tell so much.

126
00:07:27,980 --> 00:07:29,849
Just went through puberty again
at 60 years old.

127
00:07:29,916 --> 00:07:31,584
That was pretty good there, Book.

128
00:07:31,651 --> 00:07:34,253
Look at the power by Grace, Turner.
Nice counter.

129
00:07:34,687 --> 00:07:36,823
[Booker] Keep it up, keep it up.

130
00:07:36,889 --> 00:07:41,627
[Victor] Turner, trying to keep it up
right now. Oh! Nice snap suplex by Grace.

131
00:07:41,694 --> 00:07:46,098
And Booker, let's take it all out.
Let's actually be cordial for a second.

132
00:07:46,165 --> 00:07:48,768
What are your thoughts
on the historic match Sunday?

133
00:07:48,835 --> 00:07:52,638
Because this Women's Championship match
is very historic at Battleground.

134
00:07:52,705 --> 00:07:56,509
[Booker] It's gonna be historic.
You're looking at Jordynne Grace from TNA.

135
00:07:56,576 --> 00:07:59,445
Make no mistake about it,
she is a star in this business.

136
00:07:59,512 --> 00:08:01,681
But she's taken on a two time champion.

137
00:08:01,747 --> 00:08:05,518
I'm talking to break a breakout winner.
She's done everything here in NXT.

138
00:08:05,585 --> 00:08:08,187
We talk about Roxanne.
It's going to be a hell of a fight.

139
00:08:08,254 --> 00:08:09,956
I can't wait for the outcome.

140
00:08:10,022 --> 00:08:14,594
I can't wait to see Roxanne Perez
be victorious on Sunday night.

141
00:08:14,660 --> 00:08:15,795
[Roxanne] And I will.

142
00:08:15,862 --> 00:08:17,897
[Victor] I'm not taking anything away
from Roxanne Perez.

143
00:08:17,964 --> 00:08:19,632
She's "the Prodigy" for a reason.

144
00:08:19,699 --> 00:08:22,034
But here is the strength
of Jordynne Grace.

145
00:08:22,101 --> 00:08:23,035
That's the one thing.

146
00:08:23,102 --> 00:08:24,937
This is what Perez
is going to be going up against.

147
00:08:25,004 --> 00:08:27,240
[Booker] That's the one thing that Roxanne
is going to have to combat.

148
00:08:27,306 --> 00:08:31,377
-[Victor] Oh!
-It almost taking into those deep waters.

149
00:08:31,444 --> 00:08:35,047
-Those deep waters, Vic.
-First it's Grace under pressure.

150
00:08:35,114 --> 00:08:38,484
And that's followed up
by the Knockouts champion

151
00:08:38,551 --> 00:08:41,821
looking right over
at the NXT Women's champion,

152
00:08:41,888 --> 00:08:47,026
the juggernaut driver and Cain Marko
has nothing on the juggernaut.

153
00:08:47,093 --> 00:08:48,394
Jordynne Grace.

154
00:08:48,461 --> 00:08:52,632
[announcer] Here is your winner.
The TNA Knockouts champion,

155
00:08:52,698 --> 00:08:55,134
Jordynne Grace.

156
00:08:55,701 --> 00:09:00,172
[Victor] Roxanne Perez looking possessed
at the challenger

157
00:09:00,239 --> 00:09:02,742
who put on a clinic here tonight.

158
00:09:02,808 --> 00:09:06,879
Because this Sunday the women's title
will be on the line in NXT.

159
00:09:06,946 --> 00:09:08,915
Are we looking at a history maker

160
00:09:08,981 --> 00:09:12,385
or can Roxanne Perez prove
she's a prodigy?

161
00:09:12,451 --> 00:09:14,520
Oh, here we go, baby.

162
00:09:14,587 --> 00:09:18,591
Because NXT Women's champion,
Roxanne Perez, will defend

163
00:09:18,658 --> 00:09:20,293
the NXT Women's Championship

164
00:09:20,359 --> 00:09:23,195
against the Knockouts champion
from TNA, Jordynne Grace.

165
00:09:23,262 --> 00:09:30,269
This historic clash happens this Sunday
in the UFC Apex at NXT Battleground.

166
00:09:31,771 --> 00:09:34,574
[Booker] Oh, wait a minute.
Oh, no, not right now.

167
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,709
Not right now. Roxanne. Come on.

168
00:09:36,776 --> 00:09:40,246
[Victor] Oh. And slithering out
of the ring…

169
00:09:41,547 --> 00:09:46,018
by her championship skin
was Roxanne Perez.

170
00:09:46,085 --> 00:09:49,055
-Oh, Booker, I Can't wait.
-Now it's got the time, man.

171
00:09:49,121 --> 00:09:50,723
[Victor] Ticket to Vegas.

172
00:09:51,424 --> 00:09:53,726
Coming on. With me.

173
00:09:58,698 --> 00:09:59,498
Trick.

174
00:09:59,565 --> 00:10:01,901
Hey, look, Lash,
I'm sorry about last week,

175
00:10:01,968 --> 00:10:03,035
but have you seen Ethan Page?

176
00:10:03,102 --> 00:10:05,605
Look, you're good.
And no, I ain't seen that little coward.

177
00:10:05,671 --> 00:10:07,440
He's probably in there
talking to Ava right now.

178
00:10:07,506 --> 00:10:08,874
Well, good.
That's why I'm gonna go find him.

179
00:10:08,941 --> 00:10:11,277
I'm gonna knock all that ego
right out of him.

180
00:10:11,344 --> 00:10:14,013
Absolutely. You're damn right.
He needs to be handled.

181
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:18,884
-First Noam, then Oro, and now like…
-Look, I get it. I get it, man.

182
00:10:18,951 --> 00:10:21,954
I mean, those ain't my boys,
but I'm gonna take care of this.

183
00:10:22,021 --> 00:10:24,557
-I got you.
-Good. But wait,

184
00:10:25,591 --> 00:10:26,592
Trick.

185
00:10:28,728 --> 00:10:31,831
Whatever this is between me and you,

186
00:10:33,232 --> 00:10:34,233
it's done.

187
00:10:35,101 --> 00:10:36,369
It's over.

188
00:10:36,435 --> 00:10:39,405
Look, I have a big opportunity
to become the first ever

189
00:10:39,505 --> 00:10:42,274
Women's NXT North American champion.

190
00:10:43,542 --> 00:10:44,944
So I gotta do this.

191
00:10:46,979 --> 00:10:48,014
Look, Lash,

192
00:10:49,715 --> 00:10:52,551
I get it. I'm happy for you.

193
00:10:52,618 --> 00:10:55,488
You lock in and do whatever it takes
to go get that title.

194
00:10:55,888 --> 00:10:58,290
I'm gonna take care
of this Ethan Page situation.

195
00:10:59,458 --> 00:11:00,459
Be good.

196
00:11:02,294 --> 00:11:04,697
[Victor] Lash really does have
business to handle

197
00:11:04,764 --> 00:11:08,334
in a matter of moments, because my partner
is gonna have his hands full.

198
00:11:08,401 --> 00:11:09,535
Booker T.

199
00:11:09,602 --> 00:11:13,606
Is going to host the Women's
North American Championship Summit.

200
00:11:13,673 --> 00:11:15,841
And this is going down next.

201
00:11:18,711 --> 00:11:21,313
Do I have your attention? Good.

202
00:11:21,380 --> 00:11:24,083
Because all of you
have an exceptional background.

203
00:11:24,150 --> 00:11:27,620
All designed to help you
succeed in this world.

204
00:11:27,953 --> 00:11:32,258
Uriah, a fourth generation superstar.
Those are big shoes to fill.

205
00:11:32,324 --> 00:11:35,561
But a long road ahead.
A road that can become very dark.

206
00:11:36,262 --> 00:11:38,330
The vision is unclear.

207
00:11:38,397 --> 00:11:43,269
And Je'Von, all that athleticism
at 20 years old, it's incredible.

208
00:11:43,335 --> 00:11:46,305
There's so much to learn,
but in so little time.

209
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:48,174
I can help you all, especially you.

210
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,910
I really hope you guys
aren't listening to this idiot.

211
00:11:51,644 --> 00:11:53,979
-Joshua, right?
-Josh.

212
00:11:55,014 --> 00:11:56,582
Is there a problem, friend?

213
00:11:56,649 --> 00:11:59,151
Friend? Weren't you talking
about me last week?

214
00:11:59,218 --> 00:12:03,389
Saying that I'm some lost soul and need
a guidance and you're the only answer.

215
00:12:03,456 --> 00:12:05,691
Josh, you and I both
know you have potential.

216
00:12:05,758 --> 00:12:06,559
Yeah.

217
00:12:06,659 --> 00:12:10,162
But there is a big difference
between saying it and proving it.

218
00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:14,366
And no, you are not the lost soul
I was speaking of last week

219
00:12:14,433 --> 00:12:15,835
that needs my help.

220
00:12:15,901 --> 00:12:19,805
See, guys, look. He's talking about
someone that he can manipulate, right?

221
00:12:21,140 --> 00:12:22,708
And see, ladies and gentlemen?

222
00:12:22,775 --> 00:12:26,545
this is exactly the answer you give
when you can't answer a simple question

223
00:12:26,612 --> 00:12:29,782
such as, who is Josh Briggs?

224
00:12:31,250 --> 00:12:33,519
-[laughs]
-I'll show you something right now.

225
00:12:33,586 --> 00:12:34,954
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

226
00:12:35,020 --> 00:12:39,358
Josh, the only thing you are showing
the world right now is your insecurities

227
00:12:40,226 --> 00:12:41,961
and your misguidance.

228
00:12:46,899 --> 00:12:49,468
Don't worry about him. It ain't worth it.

229
00:12:50,069 --> 00:12:52,404
[Victor] Tension's rising
in the locker room

230
00:12:52,471 --> 00:12:54,206
and the same could be said

231
00:12:54,273 --> 00:12:57,343
for what's about to happen in the ring.

232
00:13:01,547 --> 00:13:03,482
Yes. Yes. Yes.

233
00:13:06,385 --> 00:13:07,686
There she is,

234
00:13:08,788 --> 00:13:11,457
right there in all of her glory.

235
00:13:12,424 --> 00:13:17,429
The Woman's North American Championship.

236
00:13:17,496 --> 00:13:18,531
[Lash] That's right!

237
00:13:18,597 --> 00:13:24,236
And the question is, which one of you
talented superstars is going to climb

238
00:13:24,303 --> 00:13:28,941
that ladder on Sunday and grab glory?

239
00:13:29,008 --> 00:13:33,078
-[Lash] You already know!
-[Booker] I'm talking about history, baby.

240
00:13:34,346 --> 00:13:36,248
[crowd cheering]

241
00:13:36,315 --> 00:13:39,018
I look at this ring right now,
and I see talent.

242
00:13:39,084 --> 00:13:44,757
I see the future of this business.
Oh, yes, man!

243
00:13:47,226 --> 00:13:49,929
And the question is,
who's going to be the first?

244
00:13:52,631 --> 00:13:53,766
Michin,

245
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,202
I ask you first.

246
00:13:56,402 --> 00:14:01,907
What are you gonna do on Sunday
at Battleground to get it done?

247
00:14:02,575 --> 00:14:05,744
Booker, ever since Ava
announced this new title,

248
00:14:05,811 --> 00:14:09,448
I knew I had to be a part.
To be the first champion.

249
00:14:09,515 --> 00:14:10,549
[Booker] Yes.

250
00:14:11,083 --> 00:14:15,221
Now, unlike my opponents,
I know what it takes.

251
00:14:15,287 --> 00:14:19,858
I've had my face shattered,
my nose broken, all in NXT,

252
00:14:20,659 --> 00:14:22,661
all in a ladder match,

253
00:14:24,129 --> 00:14:26,498
and I loved it.

254
00:14:27,166 --> 00:14:31,937
And that's the best part about being
at NXT is I get to be me, the HBIC.

255
00:14:32,605 --> 00:14:33,606
[cheering]

256
00:14:34,073 --> 00:14:38,911
And on Sunday, the HBIC
is walking out of Vegas the new--

257
00:14:38,978 --> 00:14:41,714
-[Jaida] You know what, Michin?
-Oh, no, she did not.

258
00:14:41,780 --> 00:14:44,383
I find it hilarious
how you think you can just come

259
00:14:44,450 --> 00:14:46,552
around here and run everything.

260
00:14:46,619 --> 00:14:48,087
Now, you came back to NXT.

261
00:14:48,153 --> 00:14:52,858
But, baby, this ain't no black and gold.
This is Jaida Parker's time.

262
00:14:53,025 --> 00:14:56,962
And if you even come close to my title,
I'm gonna turn your ass black and blue.

263
00:14:57,029 --> 00:14:58,130
-[Booker] Whoa, whoa, whoa.
-[Ava screams]

264
00:14:58,197 --> 00:15:03,102
I'm gonna be the first woman
to be the first North America champion.

265
00:15:03,168 --> 00:15:07,072
-And her name is Fallon Henley.
-[Jaida] She ain't got no manners.

266
00:15:07,139 --> 00:15:11,610
-She ain't got no manners.
-But, you see, this is my kind of match.

267
00:15:11,677 --> 00:15:15,948
I don't have to carry the dead weight
of any tag team partners

268
00:15:16,115 --> 00:15:20,152
or worry about anybody's feelings.
Because when I look around this ring,

269
00:15:20,886 --> 00:15:23,956
[laughing]
I don't care about a single one of you.

270
00:15:24,023 --> 00:15:28,060
So I will step on and over
all of you to get what I want.

271
00:15:28,127 --> 00:15:29,795
Because that championship,

272
00:15:29,862 --> 00:15:33,632
-it was created just for me.
-[Kelani] Hold on, Fallon.

273
00:15:34,199 --> 00:15:36,802
Where does the title say your name?

274
00:15:36,869 --> 00:15:38,570
-Thank you.
-It doesn't.

275
00:15:38,637 --> 00:15:41,840
Look, we're all more than qualified
to become the first ever

276
00:15:41,907 --> 00:15:45,544
NXT Women's North American champion.

277
00:15:45,611 --> 00:15:50,683
And you guys say you want it,
but nobody wants it like Lani.

278
00:15:50,749 --> 00:15:54,420
Nobody is willing
to take the risk like Lani.

279
00:15:54,486 --> 00:15:58,991
And nobody is willing to put
their body on the line like Lani,

280
00:15:59,058 --> 00:16:04,663
because these people, my people,
deserve a champion like Lani.

281
00:16:04,730 --> 00:16:07,066
[Booker] Whoa, baby.

282
00:16:07,132 --> 00:16:10,069
Guys, guys, hold up. Let's reset
for a second.

283
00:16:10,135 --> 00:16:12,071
Can I get a shucky ducky quack quack?

284
00:16:12,771 --> 00:16:17,843
Oh, yes, man!
Look here. Let's go to the one

285
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:23,582
that was number one in the combine,
and that is Sol Ruca.

286
00:16:24,283 --> 00:16:29,455
You may be a little out of your element
in a match like this.

287
00:16:29,521 --> 00:16:32,424
What are you going to do to get it done?

288
00:16:32,791 --> 00:16:36,495
You know, I was just gonna sit back
and let these girls get out

289
00:16:36,562 --> 00:16:39,131
all their insults and jabs to each other.

290
00:16:39,198 --> 00:16:41,633
Because every single woman here

291
00:16:41,700 --> 00:16:43,502
thinks that they're gonna be the one

292
00:16:43,569 --> 00:16:46,105
the one at the top of that ladder
at the end of the match

293
00:16:46,171 --> 00:16:48,273
with that championship title.

294
00:16:48,340 --> 00:16:50,442
But the fact is,

295
00:16:51,043 --> 00:16:52,845
five of them are gonna be wrong.

296
00:16:52,911 --> 00:16:55,881
Now, I'm not gonna say anything
to cut any of you guys down,

297
00:16:55,948 --> 00:16:57,282
but I will say this.

298
00:16:57,349 --> 00:17:01,653
-Five souls will be snatched on Sunday.
-[Lash screams]

299
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,690
It's not necessary. It's not necessary.

300
00:17:04,757 --> 00:17:06,458
[Kelani] We got it.

301
00:17:06,525 --> 00:17:08,293
We got it. We got it.

302
00:17:08,360 --> 00:17:11,864
I'm gonna go ahead and let you know
you ain't snatching nothing over this way,

303
00:17:11,930 --> 00:17:13,766
okay? Not me. Thank you.

304
00:17:14,733 --> 00:17:16,769
But look, honestly,

305
00:17:17,569 --> 00:17:21,874
it's been a rough couple of weeks for me,
but on Sunday…

306
00:17:21,940 --> 00:17:23,976
Sunday is about me.

307
00:17:24,042 --> 00:17:26,245
Sunday is about Lash Legend

308
00:17:26,311 --> 00:17:30,349
going from a woman with potential
to a woman who calls herself

309
00:17:30,949 --> 00:17:34,353
the NXT North American champion.

310
00:17:34,420 --> 00:17:38,690
Wow, Lash. I never knew you could think
of anything other than big tricks.

311
00:17:38,757 --> 00:17:39,992
[all] Whoa!

312
00:17:40,059 --> 00:17:42,961
[Booker] Oh, no! Oh, no!
You know what?

313
00:17:43,028 --> 00:17:46,532
I know where this is going.
I know where this is going now.

314
00:17:46,598 --> 00:17:48,534
You right, Booker. You right.

315
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,003
What you trying to do, Jaida?
You talking artist?

316
00:17:51,070 --> 00:17:52,805
[screams]

317
00:17:52,871 --> 00:17:54,773
No, no, we're not having that.

318
00:17:57,543 --> 00:17:59,111
[Victor] That's breaking down!

319
00:18:00,045 --> 00:18:03,015
I haven't seen Book
move that fast since I was five.

320
00:18:04,183 --> 00:18:08,020
A small taste
of what's gonna happen Sunday.

321
00:18:11,023 --> 00:18:12,658
[heavy metal music playing]

322
00:18:12,724 --> 00:18:16,228
[Robert] Hey, whoa, whoa.
Wait a second. Hey, relax.

323
00:18:16,295 --> 00:18:18,730
Ladies, Listen up. Listen up.

324
00:18:18,797 --> 00:18:21,567
Ava gave me permission to let you know

325
00:18:21,633 --> 00:18:23,802
if you don't want to wait
for Battleground,

326
00:18:23,869 --> 00:18:27,139
we're going to have
a six women tag match tonight.

327
00:18:30,275 --> 00:18:33,278
[Victor] But how are these women
going to get along

328
00:18:33,345 --> 00:18:35,747
just days before the six woman

329
00:18:35,814 --> 00:18:37,883
ladder match at Battleground?

330
00:18:43,589 --> 00:18:45,157
Are you talking to me?

331
00:18:49,027 --> 00:18:51,463
Are you talking to me?

332
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,036
Are you talking to me? Huh?

333
00:18:58,103 --> 00:18:59,171
-Are you?
-Charlie?

334
00:18:59,605 --> 00:19:01,039
What's going on?

335
00:19:01,106 --> 00:19:03,909
You been listening in on me
this entire time, Myles?

336
00:19:03,976 --> 00:19:05,711
As best as I can.

337
00:19:07,679 --> 00:19:11,817
Myles. Go and get Damon.
Bring him over here.

338
00:19:12,351 --> 00:19:16,121
I'm right here. And I was just
with you guys five minutes ago.

339
00:19:16,288 --> 00:19:18,757
I mean, we pulled up together, Charlie.

340
00:19:18,824 --> 00:19:19,625
That's right.

341
00:19:22,261 --> 00:19:25,297
I don't know about you guys,
but you kind of find it a little weird

342
00:19:25,364 --> 00:19:28,333
that we're talking to each other
through a mirror right now?

343
00:19:28,867 --> 00:19:32,337
-I mean, I think Charlie…
-Hey! I'm talking over here.

344
00:19:33,705 --> 00:19:37,442
Damon. Tonight, I want you
to make me proud. Yeah?

345
00:19:37,876 --> 00:19:40,045
You're gonna win back the Heritage Cup

346
00:19:40,112 --> 00:19:42,781
and you're gonna bring it back
for the family.

347
00:19:42,848 --> 00:19:45,083
-Bro, what do you talk about?
-Capiche?

348
00:19:45,150 --> 00:19:46,685
We ain't doing this one again.

349
00:19:46,752 --> 00:19:47,986
Just say it, Damon.

350
00:19:48,053 --> 00:19:51,256
-I don't even know what the word means.
-Just say it, Damon.

351
00:19:51,323 --> 00:19:54,626
Capiche! Just say capiche.

352
00:19:56,828 --> 00:19:58,363
-Capiche.
-Yeah.

353
00:19:59,131 --> 00:20:00,499
Just like that.

354
00:20:00,566 --> 00:20:04,169
I'm gonna get her. I'm gonna tell
Jazmyn how to get a bit of breaker

355
00:20:04,236 --> 00:20:06,905
and we're gonna be wretched.
I'm gonna die.

356
00:20:06,972 --> 00:20:11,076
Thea, that's great and all,
but I'm not gonna be out there tonight.

357
00:20:11,143 --> 00:20:13,679
Yeah. Look, Thea, this isn't personal,

358
00:20:13,745 --> 00:20:15,013
but I'm not going either.

359
00:20:16,381 --> 00:20:19,751
We're Chase U.
We always go out for each other's matches.

360
00:20:19,818 --> 00:20:22,387
Not all of us are Chase U like Ridge.

361
00:20:22,854 --> 00:20:24,890
Thea, don't worry.
I'll sub the eye out for the match.

362
00:20:24,957 --> 00:20:26,191
They're allowed to feel the way they feel.

363
00:20:26,258 --> 00:20:27,192
-Okay
-Okay?

364
00:20:27,259 --> 00:20:28,060
Yeah.

365
00:20:28,994 --> 00:20:30,395
-Hey, Thea.
-Hey.

366
00:20:30,462 --> 00:20:31,630
-Come on.
-Oh, Ridge.

367
00:20:31,697 --> 00:20:32,631
-Okay.
-Let's go.

368
00:20:32,698 --> 00:20:35,167
-Let's do this, Ridge.
-Duke and Riley not coming?

369
00:20:35,234 --> 00:20:36,802
They're gonna sit this one out.

370
00:20:36,868 --> 00:20:39,037
-Come on, come on.
-All right.

371
00:20:40,405 --> 00:20:43,008
[Victor] It's kind of petty
of Riley and Duke.

372
00:20:45,577 --> 00:20:48,547
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

373
00:20:48,614 --> 00:20:52,117
Into the diverse,
representing Chase University,

374
00:20:52,184 --> 00:20:54,620
Thea Hail.

375
00:20:54,686 --> 00:20:58,890
Well, Thea Hail, the smaller Chase U.
You but she has the same energy.

376
00:20:58,957 --> 00:21:02,261
It's Hail versus Nyx. It's next on NXT.

377
00:21:05,697 --> 00:21:07,499
Back live on NXT.

378
00:21:15,741 --> 00:21:20,012
[announcer] And her opponent, Jazmyn Nyx.

379
00:21:20,479 --> 00:21:23,682
[Victor] Thea Hail has been
in the crosshairs book

380
00:21:23,749 --> 00:21:25,751
of Jazmyn Nyx for weeks

381
00:21:25,817 --> 00:21:28,820
for a lot of different reasons.
One, because of Jacy Jayne.

382
00:21:28,887 --> 00:21:32,791
Two, because Nyx is looking
for payback from her debut.

383
00:21:36,628 --> 00:21:38,597
-Book.
-Yes. Yes, Vic.

384
00:21:38,664 --> 00:21:41,066
-What's that?
-What I'm thinking about right now…

385
00:21:41,133 --> 00:21:43,535
[Victor] I don't even wanna know.
We're going to be kicked off the air.

386
00:21:43,602 --> 00:21:45,137
[Booker] No. I'm talking about Jazmyn Nyx.

387
00:21:45,203 --> 00:21:47,306
I just watched her
make a walk right there.

388
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,910
We talk about checking off
all of those boxes.

389
00:21:51,977 --> 00:21:55,280
Jazmyn Nyx, star power, baby.

390
00:21:55,347 --> 00:21:57,015
Oh, yes, man.

391
00:21:57,082 --> 00:22:00,619
[Victor] Thea Hail coming
into this matchup declared she would make

392
00:22:00,686 --> 00:22:02,821
Jazmyn Nyx tap out once again.

393
00:22:03,822 --> 00:22:08,093
[Booker] if Thea Hail would have,
you know, did like Jazmyn Nixon,

394
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,164
you know, followed the right people,
she'd be in a better place right now, Vic.

395
00:22:12,230 --> 00:22:14,800
-I could just say that.
-What are you talking about?

396
00:22:14,866 --> 00:22:17,369
[Victor] You are just so against
Chase University.

397
00:22:17,436 --> 00:22:19,271
Hail from behind, shoulders down.

398
00:22:19,338 --> 00:22:21,907
[Booker] No, I'm thinking about Thea Hail,
she was totally focused.

399
00:22:21,973 --> 00:22:25,010
Like I say, she was so close to becoming

400
00:22:25,077 --> 00:22:27,112
the NXT Women's champion.

401
00:22:27,179 --> 00:22:31,249
Lost focus there for a second.
Not at her own accord, seriously.

402
00:22:31,316 --> 00:22:34,486
[Victor] One more time. Thea going up,
going around, shoulders down.

403
00:22:34,553 --> 00:22:35,554
[Booker] See what I'm saying?

404
00:22:35,620 --> 00:22:36,922
[Victor] Kick out one more time.

405
00:22:36,988 --> 00:22:39,291
This has become personal for Jazmyn Nyx.

406
00:22:39,358 --> 00:22:41,393
It's Thea Hail back in control.

407
00:22:41,460 --> 00:22:44,963
And you talk about the superstars of NXT,
they come to a city near you,

408
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:48,900
including this Friday at Davenport.
Into the cover and a kick out.

409
00:22:48,967 --> 00:22:52,037
And this Saturday, the night before
Battleground in Sebring.

410
00:22:52,104 --> 00:22:54,373
[Booker] Did you see that?
This is what I'm talking about.

411
00:22:54,439 --> 00:22:57,042
Look at the placement right here.

412
00:22:57,109 --> 00:22:59,778
As far as Thea Hail go,
she's perfect right now.

413
00:22:59,845 --> 00:23:00,746
She's perfect.

414
00:23:00,812 --> 00:23:02,781
[Victor] If you could sum it up,
how has Thea

415
00:23:02,848 --> 00:23:04,950
grown then in recent months in your eyes?

416
00:23:05,016 --> 00:23:06,017
[Booker] No, she's grown.

417
00:23:06,084 --> 00:23:09,254
She's taken a step forward
and she's taken two steps back.

418
00:23:09,321 --> 00:23:14,426
If she just leaves Chase U, Vic, I think
it would do a hell of a lot of good for.

419
00:23:14,526 --> 00:23:16,862
I'm not saying not go
to another university.

420
00:23:16,928 --> 00:23:19,598
-I'm talking about Chase U.
-Now her shoulders down and a kick out.

421
00:23:19,664 --> 00:23:22,701
[Victor] Thea Hail doing a nice job
of focusing on the upper body,

422
00:23:22,768 --> 00:23:24,469
focusing on the arm as well.

423
00:23:24,536 --> 00:23:28,573
Looking to get Nyx to tap out
tonight to that kimura

424
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,443
still to come in a matter of moments,
the NXT Heritage Cup.

425
00:23:31,510 --> 00:23:35,647
Damon Kemp trying to get the cup back
to No Quarter Catch Crew taking on

426
00:23:35,714 --> 00:23:40,318
Tony D'Angelo. But this has been all
Thea Hail in this matchup and it appears

427
00:23:40,385 --> 00:23:45,023
that she trusts Ridge Holland.
No one else, however, does.

428
00:23:46,291 --> 00:23:48,393
You can trust that Nyx's always
going to connect.

429
00:23:48,460 --> 00:23:51,563
[Booker] That's what I'm talking about,
the company you keep right there.

430
00:23:51,630 --> 00:23:54,733
I'm talking about, you know,
being around a Jacy Jayne.

431
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,437
That right there, that's how you learn
those tricks of the trade.

432
00:23:58,503 --> 00:23:59,838
[Victor] You bring up Jacy Jayne.

433
00:23:59,905 --> 00:24:02,140
It is Jazmyn Nyx who blames Hail
for breaking the rules.

434
00:24:02,207 --> 00:24:06,378
[Booker] You know why? Because Jacy Jayne
should be in that ladder back

435
00:24:06,445 --> 00:24:09,347
having a chance
to have a moment in the history.

436
00:24:09,414 --> 00:24:10,782
That's what this all about.

437
00:24:10,849 --> 00:24:13,351
Let's see what happened
earlier in this matchup.

438
00:24:13,418 --> 00:24:15,887
Really changing the complexion.

439
00:24:15,954 --> 00:24:19,191
And you can talk about Jazmyn Nyx,
you can talk about the smile,

440
00:24:19,257 --> 00:24:20,692
you can talk about the airport test.

441
00:24:20,759 --> 00:24:23,995
She is a phenomenal striker
inside the ring

442
00:24:24,062 --> 00:24:26,698
going back to her collegiate
soccer background in West Virginia.

443
00:24:26,765 --> 00:24:27,666
[Booker] It's right, man.

444
00:24:27,732 --> 00:24:32,003
No playing, no jive or anything,
just bitches in the middle of that square.

445
00:24:32,070 --> 00:24:34,039
So no wasted motions, Vic.

446
00:24:34,105 --> 00:24:35,807
That's what I'm liking
about Nyx right now.

447
00:24:35,874 --> 00:24:37,442
[Victor] Talk about the tension
inside the ring,

448
00:24:37,509 --> 00:24:39,244
the tension going on with Chase U.

449
00:24:39,311 --> 00:24:43,448
How about Trick Williams looking
to deal with Ethan Page tonight?

450
00:24:43,515 --> 00:24:44,516
[Booker] "All Ego".

451
00:24:45,116 --> 00:24:46,852
He's gonna have to be dealt with,

452
00:24:46,918 --> 00:24:50,822
especially after last week's
unexpected entry.

453
00:24:50,889 --> 00:24:53,692
"All Ego" Ethan Page, man.

454
00:24:53,758 --> 00:24:55,894
[Victor] Take a look
at what is trending number one,

455
00:24:55,961 --> 00:24:58,530
much like we did last week, NXT.

456
00:24:58,597 --> 00:25:01,633
And because you think about it,
Book, think about Ethan Page.

457
00:25:01,700 --> 00:25:03,502
We just brought him up,
what he did last week.

458
00:25:03,568 --> 00:25:04,703
Think about how we started tonight.

459
00:25:04,769 --> 00:25:06,171
Ethan Page, still,

460
00:25:06,238 --> 00:25:08,240
to my knowledge,
sitting out here at the desk,

461
00:25:08,306 --> 00:25:12,377
-has not signed a contract yet with NXT.
-That's the beauty of it.

462
00:25:12,444 --> 00:25:16,915
[Booker] It's a bidding war right now
for Ethan Page's, you know, services.

463
00:25:16,982 --> 00:25:18,683
And I like that with this kid.

464
00:25:18,750 --> 00:25:21,453
He came out,
he did something very, very unique,

465
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,389
and that put the champion on his back.

466
00:25:24,456 --> 00:25:25,690
[Victor] Oh, and there…

467
00:25:26,391 --> 00:25:29,394
That was Riley Osborne and Duke Hudson,
the MVPs.

468
00:25:29,461 --> 00:25:33,732
Said they were not going to be
out here to support Thea Hail tonight.

469
00:25:33,798 --> 00:25:36,334
Catching me off guard.
And that's made Thea Hail feel good.

470
00:25:36,401 --> 00:25:38,503
[Booker] You don't seem
too happy about it, though.

471
00:25:38,570 --> 00:25:40,505
[Victor] It just confusing.
They say one thing, do another.

472
00:25:40,572 --> 00:25:43,008
-What's going on with Jacy?
-Maybe they had a change of heart.

473
00:25:43,074 --> 00:25:45,143
Have you ever had
a change of heart, Vic?

474
00:25:45,210 --> 00:25:46,811
Yes, but I won't get into that

475
00:25:46,878 --> 00:25:49,447
as there's the world's littlest slam
from Thea Hail.

476
00:25:49,514 --> 00:25:50,749
Hail rolling through.

477
00:25:50,815 --> 00:25:54,152
Hail now trying to fight
through the pain. And…

478
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:56,821
What are you doing out here?

479
00:25:57,422 --> 00:25:59,524
[Victor] That's exactly what I was saying.

480
00:26:00,025 --> 00:26:02,394
She did. And then if you're gonna say
you're gonna stay in the back,

481
00:26:02,460 --> 00:26:04,596
then stay in the back…

482
00:26:04,663 --> 00:26:07,098
-They told her…
-Come on, Vic.

483
00:26:07,165 --> 00:26:10,769
-[Booker] She lost her focus.
-Kimura! Trying to lock in the kimura,

484
00:26:10,835 --> 00:26:13,705
she's focusing on the elbow,
focusing on the shoulder.

485
00:26:13,772 --> 00:26:16,875
Nyx's trying anything she can do to get
out of the kimura lock

486
00:26:16,942 --> 00:26:18,743
so she doesn't tap one more time.

487
00:26:18,810 --> 00:26:24,382
-Got to break it.
-Me having to break the hole. Oh, my word.

488
00:26:24,449 --> 00:26:27,986
-Panel kick between the eyes.
-[Booker] Good night.

489
00:26:28,053 --> 00:26:31,856
Nyx takes full advantage
for her first win on NXT.

490
00:26:32,490 --> 00:26:36,861
[announcer] Here's the winner, Jazmyn Nyx.

491
00:26:37,295 --> 00:26:40,498
[Victor] That came
out of absolutely nowhere.

492
00:26:40,565 --> 00:26:43,702
The quick feat of Jazmyn Nyx.

493
00:26:45,103 --> 00:26:48,373
What's going through their minds
as Nyx celebrates.

494
00:26:48,540 --> 00:26:53,011
Chase U needs to figure out something
and get back on the same page.

495
00:26:54,646 --> 00:26:56,114
But when we come back,

496
00:26:56,181 --> 00:26:58,917
we're going to show you
an altercation that happened

497
00:26:58,984 --> 00:27:03,221
at the NXT merchandise truck
right before we went on the air.

498
00:27:03,288 --> 00:27:06,691
This exclusive footage
comes your way next.

499
00:27:10,362 --> 00:27:13,164
Yeah. No,
listen, honestly, fantastic deal.

500
00:27:13,231 --> 00:27:16,034
Appreciate the offer.
It's very generous. Very generous.

501
00:27:16,101 --> 00:27:19,371
But I don't want you to forget
about one tiny detail.

502
00:27:19,838 --> 00:27:21,539
When you have all the leverage,

503
00:27:21,606 --> 00:27:23,975
you could pretty much
ask for whatever you want.

504
00:27:24,442 --> 00:27:26,945
And I'm pretty
sure I'm going to get it, too.

505
00:27:27,012 --> 00:27:29,681
-Keep telling yourself that.
-[Robert] Ava.

506
00:27:29,748 --> 00:27:33,351
I handled the six woman tag
just like you asked.

507
00:27:33,418 --> 00:27:34,419
Awesome. Thank you so much.

508
00:27:34,486 --> 00:27:37,055
I've had my hands full all night,
so I really appreciate it.

509
00:27:37,122 --> 00:27:38,023
I get it.

510
00:27:38,089 --> 00:27:41,926
I actually think there is a way
we could spice the match up a little bit,

511
00:27:41,993 --> 00:27:45,330
but we could worry about that later.
Ethan Page. What's the deal?

512
00:27:45,397 --> 00:27:49,567
He is a nightmare.
Look at all these demands.

513
00:27:50,368 --> 00:27:52,704
-Oh, my God.
-Look at how unreasonable. It's insane.

514
00:27:52,771 --> 00:27:53,571
Is that real?

515
00:27:53,638 --> 00:27:55,573
I can tell you,
if Mr. Stone has that reaction,

516
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,009
I can only
imagine what is in that contract.

517
00:27:58,076 --> 00:28:00,612
But, Booker, we want to go back
to something that happened earlier today

518
00:28:00,678 --> 00:28:04,816
between our NXT tag team champions
and the number one contenders.

519
00:28:11,356 --> 00:28:12,991
[people screaming]

520
00:28:14,759 --> 00:28:15,560
[punches]

521
00:28:17,228 --> 00:28:18,029
[moaning]

522
00:28:25,203 --> 00:28:26,971
[people shouting]

523
00:28:31,743 --> 00:28:33,745
[man] Oh!

524
00:28:41,419 --> 00:28:42,721
[screams]

525
00:28:43,254 --> 00:28:44,723
[man] Oh!

526
00:28:59,237 --> 00:29:01,306
Now, you see that? You see that?

527
00:29:01,372 --> 00:29:03,241
That's the champs
getting the ass whooping.

528
00:29:03,308 --> 00:29:04,743
One more smart remark.

529
00:29:04,809 --> 00:29:07,212
One more smart remark.
All right? All right?

530
00:29:07,278 --> 00:29:09,114
-That's all I got to say.
-Moving on.

531
00:29:09,180 --> 00:29:11,015
Gallus and Anderson.
I hear what you're saying,

532
00:29:11,082 --> 00:29:12,584
but we're supposed
to be in action later tonight,

533
00:29:12,650 --> 00:29:14,252
but because our general manager, Ava,

534
00:29:14,319 --> 00:29:17,622
saw that earlier today,
she has thrown the good brothers,

535
00:29:17,689 --> 00:29:19,157
the O.C. out of the building.

536
00:29:19,224 --> 00:29:23,027
They will not compete,
but they will be in the building on Sunday

537
00:29:23,094 --> 00:29:24,529
at Battleground,

538
00:29:24,596 --> 00:29:29,467
competing for the NXT tag team titles
inside the UFC Apex

539
00:29:29,534 --> 00:29:31,936
at NXT Battleground.

540
00:29:34,305 --> 00:29:37,308
[intense music playing]

541
00:29:40,712 --> 00:29:42,881
[Victor] Wait, they get a camera
back there?

542
00:29:42,947 --> 00:29:44,349
What's going on, Book?

543
00:29:47,819 --> 00:29:48,853
Get going.

544
00:29:49,487 --> 00:29:54,092
Get up and show me something, Josh.
Get up and show me something! Get up!

545
00:29:54,159 --> 00:29:57,428
Show me something! I didn't think so!

546
00:29:57,495 --> 00:29:59,497
I didn't think so, Josh!

547
00:30:06,504 --> 00:30:08,773
Don't do it, kid. Don't do it.

548
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,543
-Hey, how about you try to owe me?
-Owe you?

549
00:30:11,810 --> 00:30:12,811
[screams]

550
00:30:14,779 --> 00:30:16,981
-[Victor] Evans and Spears.
-Yeah.

551
00:30:17,348 --> 00:30:20,585
-Yeah!
-[Victor] Spears was supposed to compete.

552
00:30:20,652 --> 00:30:22,954
Briggs was laid out,
but this has been the carnage

553
00:30:23,021 --> 00:30:25,356
been going on all day, Book, all night.

554
00:30:25,423 --> 00:30:26,724
[crowd] Joshua Briggs!

555
00:30:26,791 --> 00:30:30,528
I like this young OG, but I hope he's not
making mistake right now, Vic.

556
00:30:30,595 --> 00:30:33,198
I hope he's not making
the biggest mistake

557
00:30:33,264 --> 00:30:34,766
of his young OG career.

558
00:30:34,832 --> 00:30:38,002
[Victor] He doesn't look
like he's making any mistakes right now.

559
00:30:38,069 --> 00:30:42,707
Evans came to fight.
He's sticking up for the locker room.

560
00:30:42,774 --> 00:30:47,145
He's sticking up for people
he consider his friends. Holy hell!

561
00:30:47,212 --> 00:30:50,381
[Booker] Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

562
00:30:51,649 --> 00:30:54,652
[crowd cheering]

563
00:30:57,255 --> 00:31:00,325
[Victor] This may be going a little
too far. Watch out.

564
00:31:00,959 --> 00:31:01,893
Oh!

565
00:31:02,860 --> 00:31:06,064
-[referee] Come on.
-[Victor] We need more security out here.

566
00:31:11,169 --> 00:31:14,172
-Book, you got me?
-Yeah, I got you, man.

567
00:31:14,239 --> 00:31:16,007
-Oh, boy.
-I got you.

568
00:31:16,074 --> 00:31:19,143
[Booker] I don't like the looks of this,

569
00:31:21,045 --> 00:31:21,946
Book.

570
00:31:23,381 --> 00:31:27,552
[Booker] I told you that concern yourself
with business that concern you.

571
00:31:27,619 --> 00:31:29,821
I don't like this for this young man.

572
00:31:30,321 --> 00:31:34,259
[Victor] Spears looking to send
a message to the NXT locker room.

573
00:31:34,325 --> 00:31:36,327
-[crowd shouting]
-[Booker] Oh! Ouch!

574
00:31:45,303 --> 00:31:48,406
This is just a straight up fight,

575
00:31:49,140 --> 00:31:53,344
as you would say.
Let these boys throw some hands.

576
00:31:54,279 --> 00:31:56,214
-Cutter.
-My God, man.

577
00:31:56,281 --> 00:32:00,418
[Victor] Evans beating
the hell out of Shawn Spears.

578
00:32:00,485 --> 00:32:03,154
Young OG ain't messing around.

579
00:32:03,221 --> 00:32:06,524
[Booker] Represent your man. Represent.

580
00:32:07,492 --> 00:32:10,295
[hip hop musing playing]

581
00:32:13,131 --> 00:32:14,132
Oh, no.

582
00:32:15,333 --> 00:32:22,340
[Victor] Take a look at this
one more time. How pretty. How effective.

583
00:32:26,878 --> 00:32:30,048
Young OG scared of nobody.

584
00:32:35,053 --> 00:32:36,521
Excuse me, Tony D'Angelo.

585
00:32:36,587 --> 00:32:39,157
You are moments away
from defending the Heritage Cup

586
00:32:39,223 --> 00:32:40,958
for the very first time.
How does that feel?

587
00:32:41,025 --> 00:32:44,395
These cup matches are very unique,
a different animal. You know,

588
00:32:44,462 --> 00:32:47,832
it wasn't my cup of espresso,
but I learned to like the taste.

589
00:32:47,899 --> 00:32:52,270
Thankfully, my boy Luca, he schooled me
on all the rules of this catch clause.

590
00:32:52,437 --> 00:32:54,672
Now NQCC gets to see

591
00:32:54,739 --> 00:32:58,543
what the D'Angelo family
can do when we're in control.

592
00:32:59,243 --> 00:33:01,579
-Come on.
-We're in control.

593
00:33:02,547 --> 00:33:06,884
Tony D'Angelo defends the Heritage Cup
against Damon Kemp next.

594
00:33:09,787 --> 00:33:13,358
[Victor] Last week, Book,
Sexy Red brought it all.

595
00:33:13,424 --> 00:33:19,497
Sexy Red's involvement across NXT
accounted for over 21 million

596
00:33:19,564 --> 00:33:23,601
social media views over a 24 hour period.

597
00:33:23,668 --> 00:33:29,006
And not to be outdone, Sexy Red herself,
well, she had a message earlier today

598
00:33:29,207 --> 00:33:32,910
for the NXT and WWE Universe.
You can read it right there.

599
00:33:32,977 --> 00:33:37,315
She is the host of NXT Battle Round.
Book, are you ready?

600
00:33:37,382 --> 00:33:41,486
'Cause Vegas better get ready
for Sexy Red and NXT.

601
00:33:41,552 --> 00:33:45,957
-You know about Pound Town, huh?
-Pound Town?

602
00:33:53,197 --> 00:33:56,200
[electric guitar playing]

603
00:33:58,636 --> 00:34:04,142
What I do know is we got a Heritage Cup
Championship matchup coming up

604
00:34:04,208 --> 00:34:07,512
an it was Damon Kemp
who was selected last week

605
00:34:07,578 --> 00:34:10,047
by Charlie Dempsey
and No Quarter Catch Crew.

606
00:34:10,114 --> 00:34:12,417
You're almost going
through an identity crisis.

607
00:34:12,483 --> 00:34:13,885
We'll talk about that later.

608
00:34:13,951 --> 00:34:18,022
But do you approve of the selection
of the No Quarter Catch Crew?

609
00:34:18,089 --> 00:34:20,558
At least how it appears right now? Damon.

610
00:34:20,625 --> 00:34:22,660
[Booker] I like the concept
of Charlie Dempsey.

611
00:34:22,727 --> 00:34:27,198
You got to prove your medals
in NQCC these days, man.

612
00:34:27,965 --> 00:34:30,535
[Victor] Well, is a unique style of match.

613
00:34:30,601 --> 00:34:32,303
We heard from "the Don,"

614
00:34:32,370 --> 00:34:35,807
the Heritage Cup champion earlier,
that he said he is

615
00:34:35,873 --> 00:34:38,709
warmed up to these sort of matches

616
00:34:38,776 --> 00:34:43,281
as he will defend his Heritage Cup
here tonight.

617
00:34:46,284 --> 00:34:49,053
[Booker] Looks very confident too, Vic.

618
00:34:49,587 --> 00:34:53,391
[Victor] All we got to remember too
is Luca Crusifino

619
00:34:53,458 --> 00:34:57,595
was doing a little extra legal work
for the family

620
00:34:57,662 --> 00:35:00,832
over the last few days
leading us to this matchup.

621
00:35:01,132 --> 00:35:03,401
[Booker] Finding those loop holes

622
00:35:03,468 --> 00:35:09,173
The catch clause.
Oh, yeah. Crusifino is earning his money.

623
00:35:09,507 --> 00:35:12,677
Six three minute rounds,
20 seconds rest period. Knockout.

624
00:35:12,743 --> 00:35:14,412
Disqualification ends the match.

625
00:35:14,479 --> 00:35:17,815
First competitor of two falls wins.
It's cup time.

626
00:35:20,051 --> 00:35:21,052
[bell rings]

627
00:35:21,486 --> 00:35:24,322
[announcer] The following contest is for

628
00:35:24,388 --> 00:35:30,828
the NXT Heritage Cup Championship!

629
00:35:31,162 --> 00:35:34,565
And it will be contested
under Heritage Cup rules.

630
00:35:34,765 --> 00:35:40,638
Introducing the challenger
representing No Quarter Catch Crew,

631
00:35:42,507 --> 00:35:45,510
Damon Kemp!

632
00:35:46,511 --> 00:35:48,179
[Victor] Appears they didn't lie.

633
00:35:50,948 --> 00:35:56,087
And his opponent,
representing the D'Angelo family.

634
00:36:00,825 --> 00:36:03,794
[D'angelo family laughing]

635
00:36:03,861 --> 00:36:04,862
It's a joke?

636
00:36:06,697 --> 00:36:09,700
Representing the D'Angelo family,

637
00:36:09,767 --> 00:36:14,872
he is the NXT Heritage Cup champion.

638
00:36:15,339 --> 00:36:18,109
"The Don of NXT",

639
00:36:18,910 --> 00:36:22,813
Tony D'Angelo.

640
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,250
[Victor] That was some of that legal work.
It's smart of the family, though,

641
00:36:26,317 --> 00:36:29,587
that they had Luca Crusifino
look into that catch clause,

642
00:36:29,654 --> 00:36:32,557
because as we just saw a few seconds ago,

643
00:36:32,623 --> 00:36:36,594
it didn't seem like
the No Quarter Catch Crew like the clause

644
00:36:36,661 --> 00:36:39,063
as much when it was
being used against them.

645
00:36:39,130 --> 00:36:42,934
[Booker] I can tell you this,
it does seem like that cup is growing

646
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,136
on him just a little bit.

647
00:36:45,203 --> 00:36:48,906
Just having a little trick.
I love that man.

648
00:36:49,473 --> 00:36:51,075
[Tony] Are you serious?

649
00:36:51,142 --> 00:36:53,277
[Victor] Bickering back and forth
between these two.

650
00:36:53,344 --> 00:36:54,579
Damon Kemp, no slouch.

651
00:36:54,645 --> 00:36:59,951
An accomplished amateur, Big Ten Standout,
was an NCAA national qualifier,

652
00:37:00,017 --> 00:37:02,053
and he almost picked up
the first decision.

653
00:37:02,119 --> 00:37:04,322
the first fall inside
the first 20 seconds.

654
00:37:04,388 --> 00:37:05,656
Another nice takedown.

655
00:37:05,723 --> 00:37:08,492
Crucifix pin, center of the ring,
kick out by "the Don."

656
00:37:08,559 --> 00:37:12,330
And you see the outside is Kemp right now
trying to pick up a quick victory

657
00:37:12,396 --> 00:37:15,766
here in round number one,
30 seconds off the clock.

658
00:37:15,833 --> 00:37:18,336
And he's had a couple near decisions.

659
00:37:18,402 --> 00:37:22,373
[Booker] Gotta have a lot of confidence
in Damon Kemp to put him in this position.

660
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,376
To my understanding,
is the first time he's competing

661
00:37:25,443 --> 00:37:27,445
-for the cup.
-[Victor] That is true.

662
00:37:27,511 --> 00:37:31,182
And there comes Tony D'Angelo
punching Kemp right underneath the jaw.

663
00:37:31,249 --> 00:37:33,818
And it was a decision
made by Charlie Dempsey.

664
00:37:33,884 --> 00:37:36,954
But as "the Don"
turning things around in this matchup,

665
00:37:37,021 --> 00:37:41,025
should Tony be flattered
that Charlie wants to emulate him?

666
00:37:41,092 --> 00:37:44,962
[Booker] You can say imitation
is a serious form of flattery.

667
00:37:45,029 --> 00:37:49,000
But I don't believe that, man.
I don't believe that. It's always a knock,

668
00:37:49,066 --> 00:37:52,570
a jab or something.
That's the way I look at it.

669
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,776
[Victor] Ninety seconds and Kemp
turning up the aggression.

670
00:37:58,843 --> 00:38:03,481
You can see Myles Borne on the outside,
along with Charlie Dempsey coaching up.

671
00:38:03,547 --> 00:38:04,982
Damon Kemp, big back up.

672
00:38:05,049 --> 00:38:06,851
We'll look at Kemp quickly,
getting right back on.

673
00:38:06,917 --> 00:38:08,486
Floating over into the cover,
hooking away.

674
00:38:08,552 --> 00:38:12,156
Get another kick out.
Damon Kemp has almost been,

675
00:38:12,223 --> 00:38:15,326
I don't want to say,
had to go through the drills with Charlie.

676
00:38:15,393 --> 00:38:18,663
Charlie Dempsey wants the cup back
in the No Quarter Catch.

677
00:38:18,729 --> 00:38:21,132
[Booker] You gotta give Dempsey
a lot of credit.

678
00:38:21,198 --> 00:38:23,234
He got caught right there.

679
00:38:23,301 --> 00:38:26,304
-Well, these two right now slugging it.
-Oh!

680
00:38:26,370 --> 00:38:29,640
[Victor] Forget about it.
Flown over, covering "the Don".

681
00:38:29,707 --> 00:38:32,643
Picks up the first fall. Just like that.

682
00:38:32,710 --> 00:38:35,513
[announcer] Tony D'Angelo
has scored the first fall.

683
00:38:35,579 --> 00:38:36,681
[Booker] Where that come from?

684
00:38:36,747 --> 00:38:38,649
[Victor] They were going back and forth.

685
00:38:38,716 --> 00:38:40,951
They couldn't really, either one of them,

686
00:38:41,018 --> 00:38:43,654
get on top of the other superstar
and then, bam!

687
00:38:43,721 --> 00:38:47,958
[Booker] All of a sudden,
just took a big shot. Glad on his back.

688
00:38:48,025 --> 00:38:50,127
[Victor] Now his back is against the wall.

689
00:38:50,194 --> 00:38:54,031
Tony D'Angelo staring a hole
through Damon Kemp.

690
00:38:54,098 --> 00:38:55,933
[Booker]
I didn't see that coming.

691
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,236
-That's how unique this is.
-Only a couple seconds left in the match.

692
00:38:59,303 --> 00:39:01,138
There's about a minute left in that round,

693
00:39:01,205 --> 00:39:03,874
but that's what it's about as now
we're quickly getting into round two

694
00:39:03,941 --> 00:39:06,811
and Kemp having to roll away,
trying to create separation.

695
00:39:12,783 --> 00:39:16,053
This Heritage Cup match
has gotten very physical.

696
00:39:16,153 --> 00:39:19,757
This is from earlier in the matchup
between these two.

697
00:39:19,824 --> 00:39:22,593
Remember, Tony D'Angelo
is up one decision.

698
00:39:22,660 --> 00:39:24,261
And here's where things
started to break down.

699
00:39:24,328 --> 00:39:27,865
Frustration in both superstars,
maybe more so for Damon Kemp.

700
00:39:27,932 --> 00:39:30,735
Starting to build as we start
now round number three,

701
00:39:30,801 --> 00:39:32,970
and they're picking up
where they left off.

702
00:39:33,037 --> 00:39:35,005
The important part is that score.

703
00:39:35,072 --> 00:39:36,841
Tony D'Angelo is up one fall to none.

704
00:39:36,907 --> 00:39:39,009
And for Damon Kemp,
his back is against the wall.

705
00:39:39,076 --> 00:39:42,179
[Booker] Yeah, "the Don" seem
like he has been in total control

706
00:39:42,246 --> 00:39:43,180
of the break as well.

707
00:39:43,247 --> 00:39:44,849
Damon Kemp is going to have to.

708
00:39:44,915 --> 00:39:48,052
He's going to have to do something
different in this matchup

709
00:39:48,119 --> 00:39:49,553
to try to get back on pace.

710
00:39:49,620 --> 00:39:52,423
[Victor] That could be the door
that Damon Kemp needed to open

711
00:39:52,490 --> 00:39:55,659
because Charlie Dempsey needs
the Heritage Cup to be back

712
00:39:55,726 --> 00:39:57,194
in the No Quarter Catch Crew.

713
00:39:57,261 --> 00:40:00,297
-That is what I'm talking about.
-Double stop to "the Don."

714
00:40:00,364 --> 00:40:04,802
[Victor] Kemp now, big splash,
into the cover, to knock this thing. One.

715
00:40:05,302 --> 00:40:08,239
And D'Angelo able to kick out.
And we are 40 seconds off.

716
00:40:08,973 --> 00:40:13,978
Another kick out. Just over 60 seconds
into round number three.

717
00:40:14,044 --> 00:40:15,546
And again, comes back to one thing.

718
00:40:15,613 --> 00:40:17,915
The No Quarter Catch Crew
would have paid their bill.

719
00:40:17,982 --> 00:40:19,984
Maybe they would still be champions.

720
00:40:21,185 --> 00:40:23,120
-Are you still talking about that?
-Because it's true.

721
00:40:23,187 --> 00:40:26,223
[Booker] That has nothing to do
with this match right here.

722
00:40:28,125 --> 00:40:32,530
Has zero to do with this match right here.
Bad, bad lawyering.

723
00:40:32,596 --> 00:40:36,734
You would get fired if he was wealthy
coming with a defense like that,

724
00:40:36,801 --> 00:40:37,701
trust me, bro.

725
00:40:37,768 --> 00:40:41,038
[Victor] They wouldn't have lost the cup
if they paid the bill because the family

726
00:40:41,105 --> 00:40:43,374
wouldn't have been
looking at him for payment.

727
00:40:43,441 --> 00:40:46,877
That's the bottom line.
They didn't pay the bill. They didn't…

728
00:40:46,944 --> 00:40:50,981
-[Booker] It's about the cup!
-[Victor] Pay the damn bill!

729
00:40:51,048 --> 00:40:53,117
That's what needed to be happening.

730
00:40:53,184 --> 00:40:56,220
We're 90 seconds off the clock here
in round three.

731
00:40:56,287 --> 00:40:58,622
And Damon Kemp, we can agree on this,

732
00:40:58,689 --> 00:41:00,991
has been in control of round three.

733
00:41:01,058 --> 00:41:04,128
[Booker] Damon Kemp is going to his base,
and that's wrestling.

734
00:41:04,195 --> 00:41:08,833
Trying to keep "the Don" very,
very close to the body, man.

735
00:41:08,899 --> 00:41:09,934
[Victor] Kemp trying to hold on,

736
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,269
Dempsey on the outside.
Myles Borne as well.

737
00:41:12,336 --> 00:41:13,671
I mean, right now

738
00:41:13,737 --> 00:41:17,141
Kemp needs to strike
another German suplex and again,

739
00:41:17,208 --> 00:41:20,110
-just kicking out is "the Don."
-You know what I'm saying?

740
00:41:20,177 --> 00:41:21,645
[Booker] Just ride "the Don".

741
00:41:21,712 --> 00:41:22,746
This is ride time.

742
00:41:22,813 --> 00:41:24,248
But I don't think he needs
to think about that.

743
00:41:24,315 --> 00:41:26,617
He needs to think about getting a pinfall.

744
00:41:26,684 --> 00:41:29,286
-Sixty seconds and counting.
-Oh! There it is.

745
00:41:29,353 --> 00:41:33,090
[Victor] Another suplex, another cover
and another kick out. And, Book,

746
00:41:33,157 --> 00:41:36,460
I ask you, if you're the family right now,
are you screaming to "the Don"

747
00:41:36,527 --> 00:41:40,064
just to survive the next 50 seconds
of this matchup?

748
00:41:40,130 --> 00:41:42,833
[Booker] All about strategy
in a matchup like this.

749
00:41:43,601 --> 00:41:46,971
Right now, seemed like the Don
has got that strategy down.

750
00:41:47,037 --> 00:41:49,340
[Victor] He was able to break the hole,
create a little separation.

751
00:41:49,406 --> 00:41:51,742
Able to toss Kemp off
with 35 seconds.

752
00:41:51,809 --> 00:41:53,444
Damon Kemp now…

753
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,015
telling "the Don" to bring it.

754
00:41:58,082 --> 00:42:02,553
Swings wildly, under 30 seconds to go.
And D'Angelo answered right back.

755
00:42:03,287 --> 00:42:07,658
[Booker] Big right hands by "the Don."
Oh, man!

756
00:42:08,659 --> 00:42:09,793
[Victor] Nice suplex.

757
00:42:09,860 --> 00:42:12,596
D'Angelo following it up
with another 15 seconds.

758
00:42:12,663 --> 00:42:15,299
And what was David Kemp's
best opportunity

759
00:42:15,366 --> 00:42:18,102
may be out the window right now
with ten seconds.

760
00:42:18,168 --> 00:42:20,304
Inside the final ten seconds now.

761
00:42:20,371 --> 00:42:21,238
Oh!

762
00:42:21,305 --> 00:42:25,743
-[crowd] Five, four, three…
-[Victor] Look at Damon Kemp following up.

763
00:42:25,809 --> 00:42:28,445
-Getting into the cover!
-[bell rings]

764
00:42:28,512 --> 00:42:29,313
[Booker] Wow!

765
00:42:30,614 --> 00:42:31,615
Wow!

766
00:42:32,082 --> 00:42:33,851
[Victor] Chip Danning, the official

767
00:42:38,155 --> 00:42:41,191
Book, ere you getting
the same sense I get is that

768
00:42:42,159 --> 00:42:46,096
Damon Kemp did not get the decision.
He did not get the three.

769
00:42:46,163 --> 00:42:51,835
Tony D'Angelo was legitimately
saved by the bell.

770
00:42:51,902 --> 00:42:53,804
[Booker] He was talking
about momentum earlier.

771
00:42:53,871 --> 00:42:56,540
Right now, Damon Kemp
has all the momentum.

772
00:42:56,607 --> 00:42:58,909
Just waiting on that bell
to ring like a bull.

773
00:42:58,976 --> 00:43:00,611
-There it comes.
-There you go.

774
00:43:00,678 --> 00:43:04,648
[Victor] Charging in!
Dominated by D'Angelo.

775
00:43:04,715 --> 00:43:07,217
Cover! And "the Don"

776
00:43:07,284 --> 00:43:08,919
gets his second decision.

777
00:43:10,154 --> 00:43:11,722
[announcer] Here's your winner,

778
00:43:11,789 --> 00:43:17,695
an still the NXT Heritage Cup champion,

779
00:43:17,761 --> 00:43:21,532
Tony D'angelo!

780
00:43:21,598 --> 00:43:23,200
[Victor] Did you see in the Don's eye

781
00:43:23,267 --> 00:43:24,868
with Charlie Dempsey
right here in front of us?

782
00:43:24,935 --> 00:43:28,038
He's PO'd, but when you think
of Tony D'Angelo,

783
00:43:28,105 --> 00:43:29,840
he almost seems shocked

784
00:43:29,907 --> 00:43:31,842
-at what just happened.
-Mistake.

785
00:43:31,909 --> 00:43:36,313
David Kemp just ran into that shot.
And what a big shot it was, Vic.

786
00:43:36,380 --> 00:43:39,350
[Victor] Take another look.
This was the end of round number three.

787
00:43:39,416 --> 00:43:41,485
-Listen for the bell.
-[bell rings]

788
00:43:42,186 --> 00:43:44,688
Chip Danning,
great job by our officiating.

789
00:43:44,755 --> 00:43:48,225
Did not get it off of the bell
to start the next round.

790
00:43:48,292 --> 00:43:51,562
Kemp charged in. D'Angelo caught him.

791
00:43:51,629 --> 00:43:55,733
And the family makes
the No Quarter Catch Crew pay.

792
00:43:55,799 --> 00:43:58,636
Once again, the cup stays in the family

793
00:43:58,702 --> 00:44:02,172
as the No Quarter Catch Crew
goes back to the drawing board.

794
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,642
But we're being told right now
our general manager

795
00:44:04,708 --> 00:44:07,144
is standing by with Kelly Kincaid.

796
00:44:10,714 --> 00:44:13,117
Ava, a very busy night for you.

797
00:44:13,183 --> 00:44:16,286
So how are the contract negotiations going
with Ethan Page?

798
00:44:16,353 --> 00:44:20,958
Well, I wanted him to sign his contract
in my office like everybody else,

799
00:44:21,025 --> 00:44:23,794
but no, he was very insistent
on signing it

800
00:44:23,861 --> 00:44:26,530
in front of the whole NXT universe
out in the ring.

801
00:44:26,597 --> 00:44:30,067
But before that, there are still
some things that I need to approve

802
00:44:30,134 --> 00:44:33,237
before he could even think
of calling himself an NXT superstar.

803
00:44:33,303 --> 00:44:36,674
Look, Ava, whatever Ethan Page wants,
give it to him.

804
00:44:36,740 --> 00:44:38,609
Cause he must be
out of his rabid ass mind

805
00:44:38,676 --> 00:44:41,111
thinking he gonna come to NXT, jump me,

806
00:44:41,178 --> 00:44:43,047
and then jump the line
for the NXT championship.

807
00:44:43,113 --> 00:44:45,115
After all the work that we put in?

808
00:44:45,182 --> 00:44:48,218
Everything we've done for this brand?
He got the right one today.

809
00:44:48,285 --> 00:44:51,121
I hear you, but he hasn't
even signed anything yet.

810
00:44:51,188 --> 00:44:51,989
Good.

811
00:44:52,056 --> 00:44:54,892
He wants to sign a contract
in front of the whole world to see.

812
00:44:54,958 --> 00:44:55,959
That's what's up.

813
00:44:56,026 --> 00:44:59,963
The Trick Willie gonna be there
to make sure the pen hits the paper.

814
00:45:04,401 --> 00:45:07,371
-Sorry, it's Sexy Red. I gotta take this.
-I don't…

815
00:45:07,438 --> 00:45:09,139
I'm Sexy Red snapper.

816
00:45:10,708 --> 00:45:14,078
-Oh, look who it is!
-Hey, how you doing? Good to see you.

817
00:45:14,144 --> 00:45:17,514
-Nice to meet you.
-Hey, look at us. Who would have thought?

818
00:45:17,581 --> 00:45:19,883
-Not me.
-TNA meets WWE.

819
00:45:19,950 --> 00:45:21,719
How you feel
about the ladder match?

820
00:45:21,785 --> 00:45:24,621
That's gonna be cake, but right now
I'm focused on the six woman tag match.

821
00:45:24,688 --> 00:45:27,858
Yeah, she is. I'll see you out there.
Sorry, I just had to introduce myself.

822
00:45:27,925 --> 00:45:30,127
-Sol Ruca, such a huge fan of yours.
-I'm a huge fan.

823
00:45:30,194 --> 00:45:33,464
No freaking way. Dude, you are so jacked.
You gotta tell me how much you squat.

824
00:45:33,564 --> 00:45:36,033
No, you gotta tell me
how you do that soul snatch.

825
00:45:36,100 --> 00:45:37,367
I'm gonna be sick.

826
00:45:37,434 --> 00:45:41,105
Can y'all please stop kissing each
other's ass? It's pathetic.

827
00:45:41,171 --> 00:45:42,272
Whatever, dude.

828
00:45:42,339 --> 00:45:44,141
Of course you would be the one
talking about ass.

829
00:45:44,208 --> 00:45:46,376
You just popping up everywhere now.

830
00:45:46,443 --> 00:45:48,278
-Look who's talking.
-Oh, no, she…

831
00:45:48,345 --> 00:45:49,747
You gotta take care of that.

832
00:45:49,813 --> 00:45:51,048
Don't worry,
I'm gonna put a muzzle on her.

833
00:45:51,115 --> 00:45:52,516
Let me go get changed first.

834
00:45:53,217 --> 00:45:57,888
-These girls can just be so draining.
-I'm sorry, do we know each other?

835
00:45:57,955 --> 00:45:59,623
Oh, I'm sure we do.

836
00:45:59,690 --> 00:46:02,659
You and I have the same last name,
but we're not related.

837
00:46:03,026 --> 00:46:06,463
-Wow, what a coincidence.
-Although everyone does know me.

838
00:46:06,530 --> 00:46:07,598
How could you not?

839
00:46:07,998 --> 00:46:11,168
Anyways, I'm sure Roxanne is not thrilled
about the idea

840
00:46:11,235 --> 00:46:14,872
of you walking out Battleground
a double champion.

841
00:46:14,938 --> 00:46:17,574
I would know. We're pretty close.

842
00:46:17,975 --> 00:46:20,811
I love talking about championships.

843
00:46:21,111 --> 00:46:25,015
Jordynne, don't you just
love that title of yours?

844
00:46:25,415 --> 00:46:28,318
I do love it.
It's the most important thing to me.

845
00:46:28,385 --> 00:46:30,721
But not as important as my crown.

846
00:46:32,422 --> 00:46:35,292
-No, I'd say it is.
-Hmm.

847
00:46:41,198 --> 00:46:43,000
It's important to me, too.

848
00:46:44,835 --> 00:46:46,503
[Victor]
That was a very interesting encounter.

849
00:46:46,570 --> 00:46:50,908
But Sunday will be an important
day in the history of this brand.

850
00:46:50,974 --> 00:46:53,377
As for the first time
on a premium live event,

851
00:46:53,443 --> 00:46:56,680
NXT Underground match will take place.

852
00:46:56,747 --> 00:47:01,618
We'll take an inside look
at Lola Vice and Shayna Baszler next.

853
00:47:04,555 --> 00:47:06,356
This matchup was made official.

854
00:47:06,423 --> 00:47:08,926
The six women who will compete
in Las Vegas

855
00:47:08,992 --> 00:47:12,162
to become the first ever
North American Women's champion

856
00:47:12,229 --> 00:47:14,431
will compete in a six woman
tag team matchup.

857
00:47:14,498 --> 00:47:17,034
And it was Robert Stone who suggested

858
00:47:17,201 --> 00:47:23,140
we are going to spice things up
for this matchup later on tonight and…

859
00:47:23,207 --> 00:47:25,676
Love to come back here ringside,
we're looking around

860
00:47:25,742 --> 00:47:27,845
things getting a little disheveled

861
00:47:27,911 --> 00:47:30,581
and things just getting really wild
around here during the break.

862
00:47:30,647 --> 00:47:34,251
-Hope that kid's okay, man.
-I hope so too.

863
00:47:34,318 --> 00:47:37,688
But we want to move on to what's
going to take place this Sunday.

864
00:47:37,754 --> 00:47:41,191
Las Vegas, UFC Apex.
It is NXT Battleground.

865
00:47:41,258 --> 00:47:45,996
Shayna Baszler and Lola Vice
are going to step into the Underground.

866
00:47:51,535 --> 00:47:54,238
[hostess]
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Okay, okay!

867
00:47:55,939 --> 00:48:00,077
Look, it's clear that both of you
are looking for a fight.

868
00:48:00,577 --> 00:48:03,347
You can do this at Battleground.

869
00:48:05,182 --> 00:48:08,285
Nah. NXT Underground.

870
00:48:24,001 --> 00:48:25,135
Stay humble.

871
00:48:25,202 --> 00:48:26,570
Enjoy the grind.

872
00:48:26,637 --> 00:48:29,239
Those are all words I've heard
since coming to NXT.

873
00:48:29,306 --> 00:48:33,243
And they may be true for everyone else,
but I'm not everyone else.

874
00:48:33,310 --> 00:48:36,346
Lola Vice is a superstar in every form.

875
00:48:38,215 --> 00:48:40,117
Let me tell you a little secret.

876
00:48:40,183 --> 00:48:43,320
[announcer]
Lola Vice, the breakout superstar.

877
00:48:43,387 --> 00:48:45,889
[Lola Vice]
I am the complete package.

878
00:48:45,956 --> 00:48:50,193
I can knockout with my hands and feet,
and I look hot doing it.

879
00:48:52,229 --> 00:48:55,232
[sensual music playing]

880
00:48:55,866 --> 00:49:00,470
No one nadie can handle Lola Vice.

881
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:06,944
My star shines bright
no matter who throws shade.

882
00:49:07,010 --> 00:49:09,246
I brought Shayna Baszler back to NXT,

883
00:49:10,647 --> 00:49:12,215
a place she dominated.

884
00:49:13,850 --> 00:49:16,853
I never imagined a woman
with all of her accolades,

885
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:20,390
someone I looked up to as an inspiration,
would be jealous of me.

886
00:49:21,525 --> 00:49:22,392
And now I get it.

887
00:49:29,299 --> 00:49:32,803
[commentator]
This partnership certainly is over.

888
00:49:32,869 --> 00:49:36,073
[Shayna] Somewhere along the way,
people have forgotten about my dominance.

889
00:49:36,139 --> 00:49:40,143
Clutching people out,
snapping bones, crushing faces.

890
00:49:40,811 --> 00:49:43,246
The most feared woman in NXT.

891
00:49:43,747 --> 00:49:48,085
It doesn't matter how brave
you think you are to stand up to me,

892
00:49:48,151 --> 00:49:51,655
you're gonna get smacked in the face
with a hard dose of reality.

893
00:49:51,722 --> 00:49:53,857
And I am that reality.

894
00:49:53,924 --> 00:49:57,027
The woman who has held
the NXT Women's Championship

895
00:49:57,094 --> 00:49:58,595
longer than anyone.

896
00:49:58,662 --> 00:50:02,265
The first woman to cross over
from MMA to pro wrestling.

897
00:50:02,332 --> 00:50:07,104
If it wasn't for me, Lola Vice wouldn't be
one of the hottest prospects in the game.

898
00:50:07,170 --> 00:50:10,073
She'd be shaking her ass
on some street corner.

899
00:50:10,140 --> 00:50:13,543
This Sunday in the Underground
is the reintroduction

900
00:50:13,610 --> 00:50:15,545
of the queen of spades.

901
00:50:15,612 --> 00:50:18,982
[Lola Vice]
Shayna Baszler? In the Underground?

902
00:50:19,049 --> 00:50:22,953
You have one of two options.
Either I tap you out

903
00:50:23,620 --> 00:50:25,288
or I knock you out.

904
00:50:25,956 --> 00:50:27,124
You choose,

905
00:50:27,891 --> 00:50:28,892
bitch!

906
00:50:29,559 --> 00:50:30,460
Lola Vice,

907
00:50:30,527 --> 00:50:33,029
I'll be rooting for you Sunday
at the Battleground.

908
00:50:33,096 --> 00:50:34,398
Let's go for the knockout.

909
00:50:34,464 --> 00:50:36,700
Shayna's got
way more experience than this girl.

910
00:50:36,767 --> 00:50:38,468
I think she's gonna wipe it for her.

911
00:50:38,535 --> 00:50:41,271
Shayna Baszler's gonna lock that arm
around Lola Vice's neck

912
00:50:41,338 --> 00:50:43,940
and see her life flash before her eyes.

913
00:50:44,007 --> 00:50:45,675
I think Lola's gonna get the K.O.

914
00:50:45,742 --> 00:50:47,844
I think it's gonna end devastatingly.

915
00:50:47,911 --> 00:50:53,283
Shane is the best MMA crossover performer,
but I'm gonna be the greatest superstar

916
00:50:53,350 --> 00:50:55,752
to crossover from MMA to the WWE.

917
00:50:55,819 --> 00:50:59,056
[Shayna]
At the UFC Apex, after I tear you apart,

918
00:50:59,122 --> 00:51:02,159
you'll find out there's only one
cage fighter in wrestling.

919
00:51:02,225 --> 00:51:04,661
[Lola] Sunday at Battleground,
I'm going viral.

920
00:51:04,728 --> 00:51:09,199
I'm gonna knock Shayna Baszler out,
and then it's time to dance.

921
00:51:15,238 --> 00:51:16,807
[Victor] Tap or nap.

922
00:51:16,873 --> 00:51:19,509
The only way to win
is to make your opponent quit

923
00:51:19,576 --> 00:51:21,078
or referee stoppage.

924
00:51:21,144 --> 00:51:23,246
Who is the baddest? Vice? Baszler?

925
00:51:23,313 --> 00:51:27,084
Meeting NXT Underground
inside the UFC Apex

926
00:51:27,150 --> 00:51:30,287
at NXT Battleground Sunday.

927
00:51:30,821 --> 00:51:32,823
[music with female voice playing]

928
00:51:34,691 --> 00:51:37,694
[sirens]

929
00:51:44,167 --> 00:51:45,168
[bell rings]

930
00:51:45,235 --> 00:51:48,371
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

931
00:51:48,438 --> 00:51:52,275
Introducing first, Izzi Dame!

932
00:51:52,342 --> 00:51:55,345
[hip hop music playing]

933
00:52:18,568 --> 00:52:21,571
[rock music playing]

934
00:52:24,908 --> 00:52:29,379
And her opponent, accompanied to the ring
by Karmen Petrovic.

935
00:52:29,746 --> 00:52:34,084
Natalya!

936
00:52:34,151 --> 00:52:37,954
[Victor] Let's be honest, Karmen Petrovic
was scheduled to compete here tonight,

937
00:52:38,021 --> 00:52:40,123
but was injured over the weekend

938
00:52:40,190 --> 00:52:43,126
in a match at an NXT live event in Tampa.

939
00:52:43,193 --> 00:52:46,730
As you can see on a crutch,
and you see who has taken her place,

940
00:52:46,796 --> 00:52:48,398
it is Natalya.

941
00:52:48,465 --> 00:52:51,301
Dude, don't give them to Booker.
You can't trust Booker.

942
00:52:51,368 --> 00:52:53,069
Oh, yeah, man.

943
00:52:56,173 --> 00:52:57,174
Hey, Book,

944
00:52:58,642 --> 00:52:59,709
you suck.

945
00:53:05,715 --> 00:53:07,484
[Booker] Oh, yeah, man.

946
00:53:10,020 --> 00:53:13,023
Nobody likes you. Nobody likes you, man.

947
00:53:13,623 --> 00:53:15,425
[Victor] The BOAT is here
to teach some lessons.

948
00:53:15,492 --> 00:53:18,595
Also looking to bounce back
after Monday night Raw.

949
00:53:18,662 --> 00:53:19,663
She is, certainly.

950
00:53:19,729 --> 00:53:22,098
And that means Natalya has become
a great mentor

951
00:53:22,165 --> 00:53:23,567
here in the NXT locker room.

952
00:53:23,633 --> 00:53:26,403
And I mean that even talking
about Karmen Petrovic on the outside.

953
00:53:26,469 --> 00:53:29,773
[Booker] She's had a rough week,
but right now, she's here to step up and,

954
00:53:29,839 --> 00:53:31,207
you know, get the job done.

955
00:53:31,274 --> 00:53:36,279
That's what the true renaissance woman,
Natalya, is truly all about.

956
00:53:36,346 --> 00:53:41,351
[Victor]
1567th match for Natalya here tonight.

957
00:53:41,418 --> 00:53:45,021
And stepping up, as we mentioned,
for Petrovic, that Canadian connection.

958
00:53:45,088 --> 00:53:48,758
Petrovic, of course, who slugged
Izzi Dame in the locker room.

959
00:53:49,926 --> 00:53:53,430
And it's Natalya who's in place
of Petrovic here tonight.

960
00:53:53,496 --> 00:53:56,833
And gotta really take a look
at this situation.

961
00:53:56,900 --> 00:53:59,369
If we go back to what happened
last night on Raw,

962
00:53:59,436 --> 00:54:01,738
it was Kiana James who defeated Natalya,

963
00:54:01,805 --> 00:54:04,608
and that is a former associate
of Izzi Dame.

964
00:54:04,674 --> 00:54:08,278
And it's been Izzi who's been gloating
all day that she would follow

965
00:54:08,345 --> 00:54:13,316
in Kiana's footsteps here tonight
as Dame overpowering Natalya.

966
00:54:13,383 --> 00:54:16,286
[Booker] Izzi was the wingman
of Kiana James,

967
00:54:16,353 --> 00:54:18,722
and Kiana James has played it perfectly.

968
00:54:18,788 --> 00:54:22,325
Now on the main roster,
got a big win last night

969
00:54:22,392 --> 00:54:26,229
over this one right here, Natalya.
Let's see if Izzi can do the same thing.

970
00:54:26,296 --> 00:54:29,766
[Victor] For Natalya. Iron will
also an iron heart

971
00:54:29,833 --> 00:54:34,004
as she is trying to punish Izzi Dame

972
00:54:34,070 --> 00:54:36,172
tonight with that basement dropkick.

973
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:40,377
Maybe much to the applause
of Karmen Petrovic on the outside.

974
00:54:40,443 --> 00:54:42,979
But as this matchup continues to progress,

975
00:54:43,046 --> 00:54:47,250
what would a win do for Izzi Dame
who turned things around against Natalya?

976
00:54:47,317 --> 00:54:50,987
[Booker] All that confidence,
that's what you need in this business.

977
00:54:51,054 --> 00:54:54,024
And Izzi Dame's confidence
would soar sky high

978
00:54:54,090 --> 00:54:55,692
with a victory over this woman.

979
00:54:55,759 --> 00:54:57,794
But winners are tough.

980
00:54:58,328 --> 00:55:02,232
[Victor] Izzi Dame does not seem
to care or even want to listen.

981
00:55:05,602 --> 00:55:08,104
To be fair, as we have
a six woman tag team matchup

982
00:55:08,171 --> 00:55:11,274
still coming your way later tonight
after what happened earlier tonight

983
00:55:11,341 --> 00:55:12,942
with you hosting that summit.

984
00:55:13,009 --> 00:55:15,912
But Izzi Dame in control
and as I was saying,

985
00:55:15,979 --> 00:55:18,948
does not care
or even want to listen to anyone,

986
00:55:19,015 --> 00:55:22,285
including Natalya.
As Dame looking for a submission.

987
00:55:22,352 --> 00:55:25,221
[Booker] Natalya has been
sitting on that…

988
00:55:26,289 --> 00:55:28,325
[Victor] Off the big boot into a cup.

989
00:55:28,391 --> 00:55:31,961
This is looking great here tonight, Vic.

990
00:55:32,028 --> 00:55:35,298
[Victor] It is what it is
when it comes to Izzi Dame

991
00:55:35,365 --> 00:55:36,499
has to be frustrated.

992
00:55:36,566 --> 00:55:40,070
She will not be in Las Vegas,
will not be at Battleground,

993
00:55:40,136 --> 00:55:42,739
will not be competing
in that six woman ladder match

994
00:55:42,806 --> 00:55:45,408
for the Women's North American champion.

995
00:55:45,475 --> 00:55:48,311
First champion to be crowned.
What was that?

996
00:55:48,378 --> 00:55:51,781
[Booker] That's an abdominal stretch here
by Izzi. She looks great.

997
00:55:51,848 --> 00:55:54,117
[Victor] Didn't want to cut you off
I don't want to be angry at me.

998
00:55:54,184 --> 00:55:56,786
The first champion will be crowned
in Las Vegas

999
00:55:56,853 --> 00:56:01,224
the same way the men did
in 2018 in a ladder match.

1000
00:56:01,291 --> 00:56:05,528
Is Izzi Dame looking for a power bomb
at the top of Natalya?

1001
00:56:05,595 --> 00:56:06,763
[Booker] Wow!

1002
00:56:06,830 --> 00:56:08,198
That's Natalya right there.

1003
00:56:08,264 --> 00:56:11,835
That never-say-die attitude.
She got so many tricks up the sleeve.

1004
00:56:11,901 --> 00:56:14,370
[Victor] Into the cover
off the big clothesline.

1005
00:56:14,437 --> 00:56:18,208
And a near fall. You got to wonder
what Natalya's thoughts-- Bam!

1006
00:56:18,274 --> 00:56:21,311
…are about.
Baszler and vice at Battleground.

1007
00:56:21,377 --> 00:56:24,848
[Booker] Right now I'm looking at Natalya.
She's still got so much energy left.

1008
00:56:24,914 --> 00:56:27,717
-Whoa! Got slipped right there.
-[Victor] Shoulder down.

1009
00:56:27,784 --> 00:56:31,421
Another kick out now trying to counter,
maybe looking for a submission

1010
00:56:31,488 --> 00:56:33,990
and trying to extend the arm.
Shoulders are down, though.

1011
00:56:34,057 --> 00:56:37,460
Natalya able to power through.
Now, can she break the hold?

1012
00:56:37,527 --> 00:56:39,429
-You got to hold on tight.
-Easy roll back through.

1013
00:56:39,496 --> 00:56:42,265
Referee in great position.
Shoulders down one more time.

1014
00:56:42,332 --> 00:56:44,567
Just slightly turning
her body to the right is Natalya.

1015
00:56:44,634 --> 00:56:48,138
But now being overpowered by Izzi Dame.

1016
00:56:48,204 --> 00:56:52,342
-Right in to that top turnbuckle.
-[Booker] Izzi Dame right there.

1017
00:56:52,408 --> 00:56:54,511
That's something
that you can't teach, Vic.

1018
00:56:54,577 --> 00:56:58,581
-You just gotta have it.
-Still trending number one, NXT.

1019
00:56:58,648 --> 00:57:02,352
And there's been a lot to talk about
tonight as we head into Battleground

1020
00:57:02,419 --> 00:57:07,023
this Sunday in Las Vegas.
UFC Apex streaming exclusively on Peacock.

1021
00:57:07,090 --> 00:57:12,262
But look at Natalya powering
Izzi Dame for a power bomb!

1022
00:57:12,328 --> 00:57:18,435
Down into the cover
and Dame able to kick out at two.

1023
00:57:18,501 --> 00:57:21,638
When it comes to Natalya,
you use the phrase renaissance.

1024
00:57:21,704 --> 00:57:25,675
She's always trying, always willing
to test herself against anyone.

1025
00:57:25,742 --> 00:57:27,677
Now trying to lock in
the sharpshooter again.

1026
00:57:27,744 --> 00:57:30,346
-I feel like… Whoa!
-Rolling through. Shoulders down.

1027
00:57:30,413 --> 00:57:33,483
[Victor] Another kick out. Nice counter
by Dame. Can she catch Natalya?

1028
00:57:33,550 --> 00:57:36,352
Natalya shifting weight. Shoulders down.
Natalya got it!

1029
00:57:36,419 --> 00:57:38,021
-Natalya got her.
-[bell rings]

1030
00:57:38,087 --> 00:57:39,088
[Booker] Wow!

1031
00:57:39,856 --> 00:57:43,793
[announcer] Here's the winner, Natalya.

1032
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:48,064
And another victory
to the record total for Natalya.

1033
00:57:48,131 --> 00:57:48,932
[Booker] Wow!

1034
00:57:49,032 --> 00:57:51,634
[Victor] Who told Sonya Deville last night
enough was enough.

1035
00:57:51,701 --> 00:57:53,136
It's time for a change.

1036
00:57:53,203 --> 00:57:56,506
Maybe this will be
the turnaround the BOAT needed.

1037
00:57:58,041 --> 00:57:59,943
It's time for a change.

1038
00:58:01,010 --> 00:58:02,045
Bye bye.

1039
00:58:02,679 --> 00:58:04,080
[woman] Nathan. Axiom.

1040
00:58:04,147 --> 00:58:06,149
Are you guys still
gonna be able to defend his titles?

1041
00:58:06,216 --> 00:58:07,517
-Por favor.
-Are we?

1042
00:58:07,584 --> 00:58:10,587
Are we gonna be able to defend
these titles? Come on, man.

1043
00:58:10,653 --> 00:58:14,591
Do you think you're tough men?
Attacking us like that?

1044
00:58:14,991 --> 00:58:20,330
-No, hermano. You're not tough.
-You wanna know what tough is?

1045
00:58:20,396 --> 00:58:24,434
Tough is getting back up.
Walking into Vegas hurt.

1046
00:58:24,500 --> 00:58:26,402
Heading into Battleground as the underdog,

1047
00:58:26,469 --> 00:58:28,071
still putting on
the performance of a lifetime.

1048
00:58:28,137 --> 00:58:31,808
Kicking your frickin' asses and walking
out as the NXT tag team champions.

1049
00:58:31,875 --> 00:58:36,112
That is what my partner and I
define as tough.

1050
00:58:36,546 --> 00:58:40,049
Gallus, Anderson will see you Sunday.

1051
00:58:41,985 --> 00:58:46,956
[Victor] I mean, you can understand
why the NXT tag team champions are a upset

1052
00:58:47,023 --> 00:58:50,660
and looking for a fight in Vegas.

1053
00:58:52,061 --> 00:58:54,864
[announcer] The following contest
is a tag team match

1054
00:58:54,931 --> 00:58:56,966
scheduled for one fall.

1055
00:58:57,033 --> 00:59:03,306
Introducing first the team
of Tyson Dupont and Tyriek Igwe.

1056
00:59:03,373 --> 00:59:05,675
Due to the O.C. being thrown
out of the building

1057
00:59:05,742 --> 00:59:07,043
for that heinous attack.

1058
00:59:07,110 --> 00:59:10,380
Who's Tyson and Tyriek going to face?
We find out next.

1059
00:59:12,982 --> 00:59:14,083
Booker. Unbelievable.

1060
00:59:14,150 --> 00:59:18,454
This happened during the commercial break
as Tyson and Tyriek were preparing

1061
00:59:18,521 --> 00:59:21,324
for their matchup
to see who they'd be facing tonight.

1062
00:59:21,391 --> 00:59:24,961
They were attacked
by Wolfgang, Joe and Mark Coffey,

1063
00:59:25,028 --> 00:59:27,030
all three members of Gallus,

1064
00:59:27,096 --> 00:59:30,033
who left them laying and dropped them.

1065
00:59:33,870 --> 00:59:36,439
Sorry. Not sorry.

1066
00:59:36,506 --> 00:59:40,443
Wrong place, wrong time, lads.
Boom. We're on.

1067
00:59:41,177 --> 00:59:44,280
Now that we are back to a full squad.

1068
00:59:44,447 --> 00:59:48,651
Not like last week when Wolfie
was banned from ringside.

1069
00:59:48,718 --> 00:59:54,290
Aye, but it was all right for Sexy Red
to be in the corner of Trick and Je'Von.

1070
00:59:54,357 --> 00:59:55,224
[crowd booing]

1071
00:59:55,291 --> 01:00:00,196
You see? That. That, there is the problem.

1072
01:00:00,263 --> 01:00:05,735
No, no, Jo.
That is one. One of the problems.

1073
01:00:07,103 --> 01:00:11,307
You see? Maybe if we cared about TikTok,

1074
01:00:11,374 --> 01:00:15,645
or if maybe we had a million followers,

1075
01:00:16,179 --> 01:00:23,119
or if we took beach selfies with Ava,
or if we shook her ass up and down,

1076
01:00:24,454 --> 01:00:27,991
or if we played another sport,

1077
01:00:29,192 --> 01:00:33,529
the WWE Universe would respect us.

1078
01:00:34,130 --> 01:00:39,902
And Wolfie, if you were there last week,
we would have had a starting lineup and

1079
01:00:39,969 --> 01:00:44,007
it would have been another victory
for the Gallus Crew.

1080
01:00:44,574 --> 01:00:46,976
You are absolutely right, Joe.

1081
01:00:47,577 --> 01:00:52,248
But they do not respect us here.
They don't even care about us.

1082
01:00:52,315 --> 01:00:54,884
We are not here for online clout.

1083
01:00:54,951 --> 01:00:59,622
We are not here to be
social media influencers.

1084
01:00:59,689 --> 01:01:03,960
No, we are here
to be professional wrestlers.

1085
01:01:04,027 --> 01:01:05,828
Yes, Mark, you're right.

1086
01:01:05,895 --> 01:01:07,397
It's so bad for these,

1087
01:01:07,463 --> 01:01:10,867
the next generation
of so called superstars.

1088
01:01:10,933 --> 01:01:16,906
Ruining everything that we built.
Taking stupid photos, posting them online.

1089
01:01:16,973 --> 01:01:17,974
You know what, Joe?

1090
01:01:18,041 --> 01:01:20,676
They're nothing but a bunch of wee boys.

1091
01:01:20,743 --> 01:01:22,278
The wee boys.

1092
01:01:22,345 --> 01:01:24,547
Pretending to be men.

1093
01:01:24,614 --> 01:01:30,553
What you see before you
are three fully grown men.

1094
01:01:30,620 --> 01:01:32,622
[crowd booing]

1095
01:01:34,357 --> 01:01:39,228
And on Sunday, we've got a better business
to take care of.

1096
01:01:39,295 --> 01:01:43,299
There's a Triple Threat.
And you know what that means?

1097
01:01:43,366 --> 01:01:45,568
It means anything goes.

1098
01:01:46,235 --> 01:01:50,139
And we will do anything at Battlegrounds

1099
01:01:50,206 --> 01:01:53,810
to make sure I'm leaving with the--

1100
01:01:56,446 --> 01:01:59,449
[tribal music playing]

1101
01:02:04,787 --> 01:02:06,989
Gents, gents.

1102
01:02:07,924 --> 01:02:10,193
It would be foolish of me to regard you

1103
01:02:10,259 --> 01:02:12,895
as anything less than extremely dangerous.

1104
01:02:15,364 --> 01:02:17,266
But the three of you, as a collective,

1105
01:02:17,333 --> 01:02:19,736
you have caused chaos
all across the division.

1106
01:02:22,438 --> 01:02:23,439
But Mark,

1107
01:02:24,373 --> 01:02:25,608
Wolfgang,

1108
01:02:26,442 --> 01:02:27,643
listen to me.

1109
01:02:28,144 --> 01:02:30,113
You can try to aid brother Joe,

1110
01:02:31,147 --> 01:02:33,616
but I've said this before
and I will say it again.

1111
01:02:33,683 --> 01:02:36,519
The outcome remains the same.

1112
01:02:37,153 --> 01:02:38,154
I will.

1113
01:02:42,625 --> 01:02:43,693
[Wes Lee] Hey, yo.

1114
01:02:44,327 --> 01:02:46,729
Yo, back here!

1115
01:02:49,031 --> 01:02:51,667
Hey, look, everybody's saying
their pitch right now,

1116
01:02:51,734 --> 01:02:54,337
but in order for me to win
my championship back,

1117
01:02:54,403 --> 01:02:57,206
I'm gonna have to go
through three angry Scotsmen,

1118
01:02:57,273 --> 01:02:58,641
hell bent on mayhem,

1119
01:02:58,708 --> 01:03:01,644
and the most dominating superstar
in the game right now.

1120
01:03:01,944 --> 01:03:04,113
Cardiac here ready to do
what he has to do.

1121
01:03:05,081 --> 01:03:07,850
[Victor] Oh, Gallus
getting the jump on Oba Femi.

1122
01:03:09,852 --> 01:03:10,820
Wes Lee,

1123
01:03:12,221 --> 01:03:17,326
-Lee getting right into the fight.
-[Booker] Here we go. He's back.

1124
01:03:17,393 --> 01:03:22,098
[Victor] He was back for a moment.
And there are the Gallus boys.

1125
01:03:23,533 --> 01:03:26,302
Strength in numbers.

1126
01:03:28,671 --> 01:03:33,676
And look at Wolfgang.
Look at Mark Coffey taking it to Oba Femi.

1127
01:03:35,211 --> 01:03:41,717
[Booker] Oh, man, this is real, dog.
This is real talk right here, man.

1128
01:03:42,618 --> 01:03:45,321
[Victor] And Wes Lee for good measure,

1129
01:03:45,388 --> 01:03:49,425
-for sticking his nose in Gallus business.
-[Booker] Wow.

1130
01:03:49,892 --> 01:03:51,894
[crowd cheering]

1131
01:03:57,400 --> 01:04:02,705
Look around, Book. Gallus are the ones
standing on Sunday in Las Vegas.

1132
01:04:02,772 --> 01:04:04,574
Who will be the one standing?

1133
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:07,176
With a gold on the line
and a Triple Threat match

1134
01:04:07,243 --> 01:04:11,347
for the NXT North American title
at Battleground.

1135
01:04:11,414 --> 01:04:12,882
But speaking of Battleground,

1136
01:04:12,949 --> 01:04:16,385
these six women will compete
for the NXT Women's North American title

1137
01:04:16,452 --> 01:04:17,854
in a ladder match.

1138
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:20,089
And Robert Stone
wanted to spice things up.

1139
01:04:20,156 --> 01:04:22,925
Take a look at the teams.
How are they all going to work together?

1140
01:04:22,992 --> 01:04:26,896
It's a six woman tag team matchup
coming your way next.

1141
01:04:53,623 --> 01:04:54,490
Lexis King.

1142
01:04:54,557 --> 01:04:57,560
After suffering back to back losses
to Dante Chen,

1143
01:04:57,627 --> 01:04:58,794
How do you plan a--

1144
01:04:58,861 --> 01:05:01,264
Chen didn't look
like much of a winner last week,

1145
01:05:01,330 --> 01:05:03,833
did he, Sarah? I don't think
you're telling the whole story.

1146
01:05:03,899 --> 01:05:08,504
You're leaving out one major detail,
and that's where I laid his ass out

1147
01:05:08,571 --> 01:05:13,709
on the concrete so bad
that Dante Chen couldn't even walk.

1148
01:05:13,776 --> 01:05:17,446
They had to scrape him up off the ground
and take him to the back.

1149
01:05:17,513 --> 01:05:20,850
And that's what's going to happen
to anyone that gets--

1150
01:05:22,218 --> 01:05:24,020
Watch out, Stryber!

1151
01:05:24,987 --> 01:05:29,625
-Chen not having any of that, Book.
-Just suck at the King, man.

1152
01:05:29,692 --> 01:05:32,528
You see that? He just suck at it.

1153
01:05:32,595 --> 01:05:35,398
[Victor] We need to get somebody
in the back right now.

1154
01:05:36,766 --> 01:05:37,933
The hell?

1155
01:05:38,768 --> 01:05:41,771
[people shouting]

1156
01:05:55,151 --> 01:05:59,755
You and I are going to finish this
once and for all.

1157
01:06:01,123 --> 01:06:03,426
Get him out of here!

1158
01:06:04,694 --> 01:06:09,231
[Victor] Look, tensions have been
flaring all night long.

1159
01:06:10,666 --> 01:06:12,268
[Booker] Damn right they are.

1160
01:06:18,074 --> 01:06:22,745
[announcer] The following contest
is a six woman tag team match

1161
01:06:22,812 --> 01:06:24,847
scheduled for one fall.

1162
01:06:24,914 --> 01:06:31,554
Introducing first, representing
Meta-For, Lash Legend.

1163
01:06:31,620 --> 01:06:36,292
[Victor] I don't see that changing
anytime soon.

1164
01:06:36,359 --> 01:06:39,662
It was Mr. Stone, Robert Stone himself,

1165
01:06:39,729 --> 01:06:45,234
who wanted to spice things up
in this six woman tag team match.

1166
01:06:49,405 --> 01:06:52,742
[announcer] Next, Kelani Jordan.

1167
01:06:52,808 --> 01:06:57,046
[Victor] It's all six of these women
who were in that summit that you hosted.

1168
01:06:57,113 --> 01:06:58,414
Hey, did I miss something?

1169
01:06:58,481 --> 01:07:01,484
-Did Stone get an upgrade?
-[Vic] Oh, I don't know.

1170
01:07:05,020 --> 01:07:09,525
[announcer] And their tag team partner,
Fallon Henley.

1171
01:07:09,592 --> 01:07:12,495
[Vic] As I was saying, all six
of these women will compete

1172
01:07:12,561 --> 01:07:14,530
in Las Vegas at Battleground

1173
01:07:14,597 --> 01:07:19,101
to become the first ever
NXT Women's North American champion

1174
01:07:19,168 --> 01:07:21,170
in a ladder match.

1175
01:07:21,237 --> 01:07:25,875
Who will be the first climb the ladder,
retrieve the title and make history

1176
01:07:25,941 --> 01:07:28,010
inside the UFC Apex?

1177
01:07:30,312 --> 01:07:34,483
[announcer]
And their opponents. First, Michin.

1178
01:07:34,550 --> 01:07:37,920
[Victor] How are these two teams
going to work together?

1179
01:07:37,987 --> 01:07:40,589
Kelani Jordan doesn't like Fallon Henley.

1180
01:07:40,656 --> 01:07:41,957
That goes back just a few weeks ago

1181
01:07:42,024 --> 01:07:43,692
when they were in the ring
beating each other up.

1182
01:07:43,759 --> 01:07:45,461
Lash Legend doesn't like anyone.

1183
01:07:45,528 --> 01:07:49,999
Michin is here to prove herself,
just like everyone else in this match.

1184
01:07:50,066 --> 01:07:53,969
But then you have, well,
your close personal friend.

1185
01:07:56,672 --> 01:08:02,311
[announcer]
Next, representing OTM, Jaida Parker!

1186
01:08:02,378 --> 01:08:03,446
[Booker] Yeah, man!

1187
01:08:03,512 --> 01:08:06,282
You talking about how we're gonna
keep this train on the track.

1188
01:08:06,348 --> 01:08:11,687
Victor, one caveat.
The winners get paid a little bit more.

1189
01:08:11,754 --> 01:08:14,156
Maybe that's the one thing. All right.

1190
01:08:17,126 --> 01:08:19,128
[intense music playing]

1191
01:08:21,664 --> 01:08:26,235
[announcer] And their tag team partner.
Sol Ruca.

1192
01:08:26,302 --> 01:08:29,939
[Victor] Michin and Jaida Parker
haven't stopped chirping at one another.

1193
01:08:30,005 --> 01:08:33,776
This is sort of a wild card,
tag team matchup.

1194
01:08:33,843 --> 01:08:35,478
The one thing I will agree on,

1195
01:08:35,544 --> 01:08:37,046
I'm not talking about the pay window.

1196
01:08:37,112 --> 01:08:40,282
Everyone is looking to build
any sort of momentum.

1197
01:08:40,349 --> 01:08:41,817
[Booker] Momentum.

1198
01:08:41,884 --> 01:08:44,153
What's the over under?

1199
01:08:44,220 --> 01:08:47,790
As far as how long it's going to take
for this thing to break down, huh?

1200
01:08:47,857 --> 01:08:51,060
What's the over under? 3, 5, 10 minutes?
What do you think?

1201
01:08:51,126 --> 01:08:52,761
-What do you think? Seven and a half.
-Eight.

1202
01:08:52,828 --> 01:08:55,030
-See we're on the same page?
-[Booker laughs]

1203
01:08:55,097 --> 01:08:58,200
As they have and there's a little bit of
show of sportsmanship

1204
01:08:58,267 --> 01:08:59,935
between Kelani and Sol Ruca,

1205
01:09:00,002 --> 01:09:02,404
-but honestly, all joke aside…
-We go to Vegas.

1206
01:09:02,471 --> 01:09:04,807
-You don't know about the over under?
-I get the pun, Book.

1207
01:09:04,874 --> 01:09:06,242
I've been making them all night long.

1208
01:09:06,308 --> 01:09:10,212
But how much tension did you feel
as the host of the summit?

1209
01:09:10,279 --> 01:09:13,048
Oh, man, it's all about
being the first, Vic.

1210
01:09:13,115 --> 01:09:16,785
You know, being the first ever
Women's North America champion.

1211
01:09:16,852 --> 01:09:20,256
You win that, no one could ever,
ever take it away from you, Vic.

1212
01:09:20,322 --> 01:09:22,491
Oh, you can cut it with a knife, man.

1213
01:09:22,558 --> 01:09:24,827
[Victor] Take a look at Sol Ruca here
with Kelani Jordan.

1214
01:09:24,894 --> 01:09:28,564
Everyone has to be looking at Sol Ruca
was number one in the combine.

1215
01:09:28,631 --> 01:09:30,432
You mentioned it during that summit.

1216
01:09:30,499 --> 01:09:32,935
I mean, doesn't that put a target
on Ruca's back?

1217
01:09:33,002 --> 01:09:34,170
[Booker] You know what?

1218
01:09:34,236 --> 01:09:36,839
One would think that
with so many players out there

1219
01:09:36,906 --> 01:09:38,741
vying for the same thing.

1220
01:09:38,807 --> 01:09:42,111
And that's history, man.
A moment, a moment in time.

1221
01:09:42,178 --> 01:09:43,279
[Victor] Whoa, that's…

1222
01:09:43,345 --> 01:09:46,749
But I don't think teammates necessarily
would do that to one another,

1223
01:09:46,815 --> 01:09:48,317
but look at Jaida Parker.

1224
01:09:48,384 --> 01:09:50,753
And Parker now pick it up
where she has left off

1225
01:09:50,819 --> 01:09:54,690
every single time she's been in the ring.
But you take a look at her partners.

1226
01:09:54,757 --> 01:09:56,258
I already talked about Michin.

1227
01:09:56,325 --> 01:09:59,495
They seem to not be getting along
all night long,

1228
01:09:59,562 --> 01:10:01,130
dating back to the summit.

1229
01:10:01,197 --> 01:10:03,299
And even their little interaction earlier.

1230
01:10:03,365 --> 01:10:05,801
[Booker] She's been around
for quite some time.

1231
01:10:05,868 --> 01:10:09,939
She knows what the big picture,
the end game is all about here, Vic.

1232
01:10:10,005 --> 01:10:13,609
And that's making it to Battleground.

1233
01:10:13,676 --> 01:10:17,580
Parker into the cover center of the ring.
Lash with a quick kick out.

1234
01:10:17,646 --> 01:10:20,115
Easy for me to say.
How can Lash be focused?

1235
01:10:20,182 --> 01:10:23,519
Honestly, truthfully, with everything
going on with Trick Williams.

1236
01:10:23,586 --> 01:10:26,488
She looked like she ended it
with the NXT champion earlier.

1237
01:10:26,555 --> 01:10:29,291
[Booker]
You know, Lash and Trick.

1238
01:10:29,358 --> 01:10:34,330
Willie's business. Big Trick. Really.
That's what she called it.

1239
01:10:34,396 --> 01:10:36,365
[Victor] You got
a little tongue tied there too.

1240
01:10:36,432 --> 01:10:39,134
Trick, of course, looking for Ethan Page.

1241
01:10:39,201 --> 01:10:43,405
Page still has not signed
his contract yet, here in NXT.

1242
01:10:43,472 --> 01:10:46,642
-[crowd] Michin!
-[Booker] It's a bitty war, man.

1243
01:10:46,709 --> 01:10:49,878
[Victor] I said it earlier,
the NXT universe showing their love,

1244
01:10:49,945 --> 01:10:51,313
their appreciation,

1245
01:10:51,380 --> 01:10:53,749
their admiration for Michin.

1246
01:10:53,816 --> 01:10:56,185
And Michin going
right back over to Jaida Parker

1247
01:10:56,251 --> 01:10:59,788
as that's looking to pop off
as Michin right into Lash Legend.

1248
01:10:59,855 --> 01:11:02,057
She's in control of this matchup.

1249
01:11:02,825 --> 01:11:05,394
But be honest with me,
you talk about over unders,

1250
01:11:05,461 --> 01:11:08,163
who's your favorite at Battleground?
Oh, Fallon Henley!

1251
01:11:08,230 --> 01:11:09,031
[Booker] Wow!

1252
01:11:09,098 --> 01:11:11,834
I need to be honest, Michin has
the most experience

1253
01:11:11,900 --> 01:11:13,969
going into a matchup like that.

1254
01:11:14,036 --> 01:11:16,639
And she is definitely
just from her response earlier.

1255
01:11:16,705 --> 01:11:18,974
She's looking for a moment in Las Vegas.

1256
01:11:19,041 --> 01:11:21,644
[Victor] Everyone else
looking for a moment as well.

1257
01:11:21,710 --> 01:11:22,878
Fallon Henley!

1258
01:11:22,945 --> 01:11:26,181
Which one of these teams
will pick up the momentum

1259
01:11:26,248 --> 01:11:28,250
as they head into Battleground

1260
01:11:28,317 --> 01:11:30,552
Sunday in Las Vegas?

1261
01:11:32,821 --> 01:11:35,724
Back live on NXT,
six women tag team match

1262
01:11:35,791 --> 01:11:39,762
with all six these participants
will also meet this Sunday

1263
01:11:39,828 --> 01:11:43,132
in Las Vegas at Battleground
in a ladder match

1264
01:11:43,198 --> 01:11:48,070
to determine the first ever
NXT Women's North American champion.

1265
01:11:48,137 --> 01:11:50,639
And Jaida Parker
actually took a tag from Michin.

1266
01:11:50,706 --> 01:11:52,708
I don't know if Michin
was reaching for Parker.

1267
01:11:52,775 --> 01:11:54,443
I think she was looking for Sol Ruca.

1268
01:11:54,510 --> 01:11:57,646
Nonetheless, take a look
at Kelani Jordan, Book.

1269
01:11:57,713 --> 01:12:01,016
How big is Sunday going to be
inside the UFC Apex?

1270
01:12:01,083 --> 01:12:03,652
[Booker] Going to be a hell of a moment.
I'm looking at Kelani Jordan right now.

1271
01:12:03,719 --> 01:12:05,854
Someone who's so young in this business.

1272
01:12:05,921 --> 01:12:07,289
We can have that history.

1273
01:12:07,356 --> 01:12:10,125
That history making moment
on Sunday night.

1274
01:12:10,192 --> 01:12:14,730
[Victor] NXT Battleground
streaming exclusively Sunday on Peacock.

1275
01:12:15,197 --> 01:12:19,968
That's Kelani flying,
gets caught by Ms. Parker.

1276
01:12:20,436 --> 01:12:26,308
[Booker] Someone else who is highly touted
to be a major player on Sunday, Vic.

1277
01:12:29,712 --> 01:12:33,082
[Victor] We've been wondering how
six of these women would work together

1278
01:12:33,148 --> 01:12:34,850
in their respective teams.

1279
01:12:34,917 --> 01:12:38,787
But Michin, Sol and Parker
are working together well,

1280
01:12:38,854 --> 01:12:42,458
at least in this moment
because Parker has taken control

1281
01:12:42,524 --> 01:12:43,726
of the situation.

1282
01:12:43,792 --> 01:12:44,860
[Booker] Beautiful.

1283
01:12:44,927 --> 01:12:46,995
[Victor] Into the cover hook of the leg.

1284
01:12:47,830 --> 01:12:49,131
Another near fall.

1285
01:12:49,198 --> 01:12:52,468
[Booker] Those intangibles.
You can't teach those intangibles.

1286
01:12:52,534 --> 01:12:54,670
Jaida Parker seem to have it down.

1287
01:12:54,737 --> 01:12:56,371
[Victor] But look at the live action.

1288
01:12:56,438 --> 01:12:59,375
Jaida Parker tagging in Michin
and continuing to…

1289
01:13:00,609 --> 01:13:03,645
…talk for talk, as some would say.
And speaking of talk their talk,

1290
01:13:03,712 --> 01:13:07,182
Ethan Page still to come,
center of the ring will be live.

1291
01:13:07,249 --> 01:13:11,620
Will he or won't he sign his NXT contract?

1292
01:13:11,687 --> 01:13:14,323
As another cover
into the count and a kick out.

1293
01:13:14,389 --> 01:13:16,358
-[Booker] Look.
-Ethan Page. We've been Waiting all night.

1294
01:13:16,425 --> 01:13:19,261
-[Victor] Is he gonna sign the contract?
-Is the money right?

1295
01:13:19,328 --> 01:13:20,129
[Victor] I don't know.

1296
01:13:20,195 --> 01:13:22,731
That's the question, man.
The money gotta be right.

1297
01:13:22,798 --> 01:13:24,533
[Victor] That's still to come here
in a matter of moments.

1298
01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:26,635
But this made official for next week.

1299
01:13:26,702 --> 01:13:30,672
A Singapore Cane match.
Lexis King, Dante Chen.

1300
01:13:30,739 --> 01:13:33,375
They will settle the score
once and for all.

1301
01:13:33,442 --> 01:13:34,543
But back to the live action.

1302
01:13:34,610 --> 01:13:36,378
Looking for a submission counter
into the covers.

1303
01:13:36,478 --> 01:13:37,546
Kelani. And a kick out by Michin.

1304
01:13:37,613 --> 01:13:39,915
-[Booker] Can't wait to see that.
-Oh, nice drop kick.

1305
01:13:39,982 --> 01:13:42,684
[Booker] Lexis King is going to get
a little payback.

1306
01:13:42,751 --> 01:13:45,721
He's going to be redeemed next week.
I can't wait.

1307
01:13:45,788 --> 01:13:47,856
[Victor] We've talked about
how all these women

1308
01:13:47,923 --> 01:13:49,191
would be able to work together.

1309
01:13:49,258 --> 01:13:53,195
In your career, did you ever have to team
with an upcoming opponent?

1310
01:13:53,262 --> 01:13:56,298
[Booker] It's always good to find a set
of these situations

1311
01:13:56,365 --> 01:13:59,802
that you can learn a lot here
in these situations.

1312
01:14:02,104 --> 01:14:03,605
[Victor] NXT Universe,

1313
01:14:08,343 --> 01:14:09,978
Jazmyn Nyx.

1314
01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:12,514
[Booker] What have we here?

1315
01:14:12,581 --> 01:14:15,017
[Victor] Get another look at who
Jazmyn Nyx is with

1316
01:14:15,083 --> 01:14:18,620
as we see a counter in the submission.
Kelani Jordan in control now.

1317
01:14:18,687 --> 01:14:22,424
That gets turned around in Jaida Parker
got dropped with a stunner.

1318
01:14:22,491 --> 01:14:25,594
[Booker] What a move by this young lady.
Really special.

1319
01:14:25,661 --> 01:14:27,029
[Victor] Tag was made.

1320
01:14:27,095 --> 01:14:32,000
Sol Ruca finally making her presence felt,
number one in the combine.

1321
01:14:32,067 --> 01:14:33,936
You can hear from the NXT universe--

1322
01:14:34,002 --> 01:14:35,871
It just got dropped by Fallon Henley,

1323
01:14:35,938 --> 01:14:38,540
who is number one in her own heart,
that being Fallon

1324
01:14:38,607 --> 01:14:40,008
she's putting herself first.

1325
01:14:40,075 --> 01:14:43,545
[Booker] Thought Fallon was
in the drop zone there for a second take.

1326
01:14:43,612 --> 01:14:48,150
[Victor] Oh, Fallon charging in,
picking up some momentum and dropping.

1327
01:14:48,217 --> 01:14:52,087
Sol Ruca. Talking about that target
on the back of Ruca. It's big.

1328
01:14:52,154 --> 01:14:55,624
Everybody targeting Sol in this moment,
in this match.

1329
01:14:55,691 --> 01:14:59,628
And I'm sure the same will be said
for what's going to happen on Sunday.

1330
01:14:59,695 --> 01:15:03,031
[Booker] Could you imagine
if Fallon Henley had the same attitude

1331
01:15:03,098 --> 01:15:04,633
about a year ago? Wow.

1332
01:15:04,700 --> 01:15:07,135
Where would she be at right now? Wow!

1333
01:15:07,202 --> 01:15:10,272
[Victor] Ruca and Fallon, same mindset.

1334
01:15:10,339 --> 01:15:12,674
Both come crashing down as Jaida Parker

1335
01:15:12,741 --> 01:15:14,977
trying to make her way into the matchup.

1336
01:15:15,043 --> 01:15:16,445
Michin. Hey!

1337
01:15:19,381 --> 01:15:21,683
I guess it'd be the over
at any minute, Book.

1338
01:15:21,750 --> 01:15:24,720
-[Booker] Yeah. What we at?
-Jaida Parker swinging away.

1339
01:15:24,786 --> 01:15:27,456
[Victor] Tag was made. Lash Legend legal.

1340
01:15:27,990 --> 01:15:30,926
Referee trying his best
does not see this two-on-one.

1341
01:15:30,993 --> 01:15:34,763
-Did I tell you? Did that tell you, Vic?
-And there's Fallon being involved.

1342
01:15:34,830 --> 01:15:37,232
-[Booker] Did I tell you?
-Jordan can't trust Fallon.

1343
01:15:37,299 --> 01:15:40,068
[Victor] Fallon can't trust Jordan.
None of them can trust Lash.

1344
01:15:40,135 --> 01:15:42,671
-Things are breaking down.
-[Booker laughing] Yeah!

1345
01:15:42,738 --> 01:15:45,674
Referee's lost control.
Their teammates are fighting teammates.

1346
01:15:45,741 --> 01:15:49,745
-[Booker] I love it.
-Oh, big pump kick.

1347
01:15:50,646 --> 01:15:52,014
[Victor] But wait a minute!

1348
01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:57,119
-[Booker] My God!
-Just snatch Lash's Sol.

1349
01:15:57,853 --> 01:15:59,121
[bell rings]

1350
01:16:00,556 --> 01:16:02,291
[announcer] Here are your winners.

1351
01:16:02,357 --> 01:16:07,763
The team of Michin, Jaida Parker
and Sol Ruca.

1352
01:16:07,829 --> 01:16:10,499
[Victor] Hooked out here.
Getting a good look at the action

1353
01:16:10,566 --> 01:16:11,934
was Jazmyn Nyx.

1354
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:16,538
And I believe that's Jacy Jayne.
But back to the action.

1355
01:16:16,605 --> 01:16:19,207
Big pump kick. But they, bam!

1356
01:16:19,841 --> 01:16:24,246
Sol said earlier she is going to snatch
five souls Sunday

1357
01:16:24,313 --> 01:16:26,682
on her way to making history.

1358
01:16:26,748 --> 01:16:33,422
Will she be the one to ride the wave
of momentum in and out of Las Vegas?

1359
01:16:33,488 --> 01:16:38,660
For these six, only one will make
history Sunday at Battleground.

1360
01:16:45,367 --> 01:16:48,303
-This works.
-Ava. Yes. Ava, hello.

1361
01:16:48,370 --> 01:16:50,872
I could just have a moment
of your time, please?

1362
01:16:50,939 --> 01:16:52,808
I just think putting me
against Jordynne Grace,

1363
01:16:52,874 --> 01:16:56,144
it just wasn't really fair, was it?
So maybe next week.

1364
01:16:56,211 --> 01:16:57,913
Another week, another opportunity.

1365
01:16:57,980 --> 01:17:00,082
-Listen, Stevie, I gotta go.
-Come on, Ava.

1366
01:17:00,148 --> 01:17:02,617
-Sorry.
-I have so many ideas, Ava.

1367
01:17:02,985 --> 01:17:06,421
[Victor] Our general manager
has been very busy here tonight.

1368
01:17:06,488 --> 01:17:10,826
And there he is,
the man of the hour, Ethan Page.

1369
01:17:10,892 --> 01:17:13,862
Will he or won't he sign his contract?

1370
01:17:17,699 --> 01:17:20,535
[Ethan Page] When I sit and I look
into the sacred fire,

1371
01:17:20,602 --> 01:17:22,704
my thoughts turn to my memories.

1372
01:17:24,106 --> 01:17:26,074
Stories passed down through generations

1373
01:17:27,009 --> 01:17:29,644
tell me I come
from a long lineage of fighters

1374
01:17:29,711 --> 01:17:31,580
battling with everything they had

1375
01:17:31,647 --> 01:17:34,282
for every inch of this world they got.

1376
01:17:35,651 --> 01:17:37,219
That's true inspiration,

1377
01:17:37,285 --> 01:17:40,322
because I'm fighting for more
than winning wrestling matches.

1378
01:17:42,457 --> 01:17:46,094
I'm fighting for representation,
for people who look like me.

1379
01:17:46,161 --> 01:17:49,531
For the next generation.
So one day, they can my stories.

1380
01:17:50,666 --> 01:17:53,769
The time for recovery
and contemplation is over.

1381
01:17:54,302 --> 01:17:57,239
My mind and my body have been cleansed.

1382
01:17:59,107 --> 01:18:02,244
Now I return to NXT, reborn,

1383
01:18:02,310 --> 01:18:07,382
with a clear mission
to execute and my eyes open.

1384
01:18:12,587 --> 01:18:15,857
[Victor] Las Vegas is the home
of WrestleMania next April,

1385
01:18:15,924 --> 01:18:21,096
but NXT Battleground comes to UFC Apex
in Las Vegas, Nevada this Sunday.

1386
01:18:22,164 --> 01:18:25,167
[intense music playing]

1387
01:18:26,735 --> 01:18:29,538
Do not miss your chance
to be part of history

1388
01:18:29,604 --> 01:18:33,308
inside the state of the art UFC Apex,

1389
01:18:33,375 --> 01:18:36,111
this Sunday at NXT Battleground.

1390
01:18:36,178 --> 01:18:39,381
Because history will be made Sunday,

1391
01:18:39,448 --> 01:18:41,550
exclusively on Peacock.

1392
01:18:41,616 --> 01:18:44,820
Because Roxanne Perez
will defend her NXT Women's title

1393
01:18:44,886 --> 01:18:48,156
against TNA star and current
Knockouts champion, Jordynne Grace.

1394
01:18:48,223 --> 01:18:51,193
Will "the Juggernaut" head back to TNA
with NXT gold?

1395
01:18:51,259 --> 01:18:54,563
Or will "the Prodigy" prove again
why this is her show?

1396
01:18:54,629 --> 01:19:00,102
A historic championship clash this Sunday
also inside the UFC Apex.

1397
01:19:00,168 --> 01:19:02,938
No more running, no more ducking,
no more false claims,

1398
01:19:03,004 --> 01:19:05,474
as the OC will challenge Axiom and Frazer

1399
01:19:05,540 --> 01:19:09,711
for the NXT tag team titles
at NXT Battleground.

1400
01:19:09,778 --> 01:19:13,048
It'll be a Triple Threat match under
Triple Threat rules

1401
01:19:13,115 --> 01:19:14,616
for the North American title

1402
01:19:14,683 --> 01:19:17,352
as Joe Coffey and Wes Lee
will challenge Oba Femi.

1403
01:19:17,419 --> 01:19:20,522
And after tonight, who will be the one
standing with the gold?

1404
01:19:20,589 --> 01:19:23,024
In a match where the champion
doesn't need to be factored

1405
01:19:23,091 --> 01:19:24,693
in the decision to lose his title.

1406
01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:27,863
Will we crown a new champion in Las Vegas?

1407
01:19:27,929 --> 01:19:31,800
We will crown the first
Women's North American champion,

1408
01:19:31,867 --> 01:19:34,402
as these six will fight
to retrieve the title

1409
01:19:34,469 --> 01:19:35,637
in a ladder match.

1410
01:19:35,704 --> 01:19:36,838
You see the field.

1411
01:19:36,905 --> 01:19:41,243
Who will make history
at NXT Battleground on Sunday?

1412
01:19:41,309 --> 01:19:42,777
And the rules are simple.

1413
01:19:42,844 --> 01:19:44,346
Tap or nap.

1414
01:19:44,412 --> 01:19:46,615
For the first time
on a premium live event,

1415
01:19:46,681 --> 01:19:48,984
we will enter the NXT Underground to prove

1416
01:19:49,050 --> 01:19:51,853
who is the baddest.
Shayna Baszler or Lola Vice.

1417
01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:55,490
It all happens inside
the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

1418
01:19:55,557 --> 01:19:57,492
Streaming exclusively on Peacock.

1419
01:19:57,559 --> 01:20:00,762
Do not miss NXT Battleground.

1420
01:20:02,697 --> 01:20:05,100
[Booker] Good job, Vic.

1421
01:20:09,237 --> 01:20:12,073
All right, Mr. "All Ego."

1422
01:20:12,140 --> 01:20:15,944
You wanted to do this publicly,
so here we are.

1423
01:20:16,511 --> 01:20:20,749
Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome Ethan Page.

1424
01:20:21,049 --> 01:20:24,052
[isolated booing]

1425
01:20:34,663 --> 01:20:37,032
[Victor] Well, there is Ethan Page, Book.

1426
01:20:37,098 --> 01:20:40,402
The man who shocked
the wrestling world last week,

1427
01:20:41,369 --> 01:20:43,471
said that he was the one
behind the attacks

1428
01:20:43,538 --> 01:20:46,575
of Noam Dar, Oro Mensah and then

1429
01:20:46,641 --> 01:20:51,012
an then ambushed NXT champion
Trick Williams.

1430
01:20:52,614 --> 01:20:54,749
[Booker] Money gotta be right, Vic.

1431
01:20:55,183 --> 01:20:57,219
I'm talking long

1432
01:20:57,285 --> 01:20:59,688
green duckets.

1433
01:21:03,491 --> 01:21:07,262
Now, Ethan, this is not how
I like to handle business.

1434
01:21:07,329 --> 01:21:10,799
But against my better judgment,
I'm making an exception.

1435
01:21:10,866 --> 01:21:13,902
So could we please just get this finished?

1436
01:21:13,969 --> 01:21:16,938
Yeah. No, no, no. Honestly, listen, Ava,

1437
01:21:17,672 --> 01:21:19,674
[angry shouts]

1438
01:21:20,242 --> 01:21:23,511
I'm sorry. Did you get invited out
here to sign a contract to NXT?

1439
01:21:23,578 --> 01:21:25,614
No. How about you shut the hell up?

1440
01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:27,849
[crowd booing]

1441
01:21:27,916 --> 01:21:29,751
But, Ava, I want to thank you.

1442
01:21:29,818 --> 01:21:31,486
No, I want to thank you, because…

1443
01:21:32,220 --> 01:21:33,421
this whole thing,

1444
01:21:34,556 --> 01:21:38,927
[crowd chanting] We want Trick!

1445
01:21:39,661 --> 01:21:42,564
Ethan, we really need to get this done.

1446
01:21:45,233 --> 01:21:47,535
Well, you get Ethan Page, so relax.

1447
01:21:48,703 --> 01:21:49,704
Look,

1448
01:21:50,205 --> 01:21:53,708
I want to thank you,
but you have to understand one thing.

1449
01:21:53,775 --> 01:21:57,913
You're going to have to get used to this
whole Ethan Page calling the shots thing,

1450
01:21:57,979 --> 01:21:59,781
because if…

1451
01:22:00,682 --> 01:22:04,819
and that's a huge if…
I sign this contract,

1452
01:22:05,353 --> 01:22:09,491
I'm going to get a lot of perks
that nobody else in the locker room

1453
01:22:09,557 --> 01:22:10,925
is going to get, and…

1454
01:22:10,992 --> 01:22:13,662
I don't think
they're gonna like that very much.

1455
01:22:14,262 --> 01:22:17,198
I don't think you're gonna
like that very much.

1456
01:22:17,265 --> 01:22:20,268
But to be honest,
I don't really give a damn,

1457
01:22:20,335 --> 01:22:24,172
because I've earned that, okay?

1458
01:22:24,239 --> 01:22:26,241
Because I'm tired of waiting

1459
01:22:26,308 --> 01:22:28,810
and sitting around
for these opportunities.

1460
01:22:28,877 --> 01:22:30,345
Now I'm gonna take them.

1461
01:22:30,412 --> 01:22:34,182
I'm a little frustrated, but you?
You should have a giant smile on your face

1462
01:22:34,249 --> 01:22:37,485
because you're about to sign the wrestler

1463
01:22:37,552 --> 01:22:42,223
with the biggest upside
in professional wrestling.

1464
01:22:44,159 --> 01:22:47,062
Ethan, those are some very bold claims,

1465
01:22:47,128 --> 01:22:52,133
but, honestly,
I'm not signing anyone with these demands.

1466
01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:55,270
Oh, no, no. You are signing.

1467
01:22:55,337 --> 01:22:59,607
And you're signing this contract
on live TV tonight

1468
01:22:59,674 --> 01:23:02,844
because you need to sign Ethan Page.

1469
01:23:02,911 --> 01:23:08,083
Hey, hold on, hold on. Listen, listen.
Please, please, please.

1470
01:23:08,149 --> 01:23:11,720
Everybody here knows.
Everybody watched the draft.

1471
01:23:12,387 --> 01:23:14,823
NXT lost what?

1472
01:23:14,889 --> 01:23:20,695
Eight of its top stars?
Leaving a giant void

1473
01:23:20,762 --> 01:23:23,832
perfectly sized for Ethan Page to fill

1474
01:23:23,898 --> 01:23:27,268
and become the face of NXT

1475
01:23:27,335 --> 01:23:34,109
and to take this brand to new heights
and to our new home.

1476
01:23:34,175 --> 01:23:36,211
But you know what?

1477
01:23:36,277 --> 01:23:38,079
I'm here for the opportunity.

1478
01:23:38,146 --> 01:23:41,549
I understand there's a lot of money
in this contract,

1479
01:23:41,616 --> 01:23:43,785
but to be honest with you,

1480
01:23:43,852 --> 01:23:46,821
I could have sat my ass at home
for the last two years

1481
01:23:46,888 --> 01:23:48,423
and collected a check,

1482
01:23:48,490 --> 01:23:50,058
but I ain't about that.

1483
01:23:50,125 --> 01:23:52,127
Ethan Page wants the opportunity.

1484
01:23:52,193 --> 01:23:54,162
Because I hear in NXT

1485
01:23:54,896 --> 01:23:57,465
talent grants opportunity.

1486
01:23:57,532 --> 01:24:02,937
And I know when you look at me, Ava,
you might hate me with every ounce of you,

1487
01:24:03,004 --> 01:24:05,373
but you know I'm talented.

1488
01:24:05,440 --> 01:24:09,110
You know I'm a megastar. Shut that all up!

1489
01:24:09,711 --> 01:24:16,718
[crowd chanting] Whoop that Trick!

1490
01:24:18,219 --> 01:24:19,754
But more importantly,

1491
01:24:21,022 --> 01:24:24,225
you know that I have earned

1492
01:24:24,292 --> 01:24:28,663
and I deserve the ego that I have.

1493
01:24:28,730 --> 01:24:33,468
Because so far in this ring tonight,
I haven't said anything

1494
01:24:33,535 --> 01:24:34,669
that's an opinion.

1495
01:24:34,736 --> 01:24:37,338
No, no. I'm only spitting facts.

1496
01:24:38,406 --> 01:24:43,778
[music playing]

1497
01:24:45,980 --> 01:24:48,983
[crowd chanting] Whoop that Trick!

1498
01:24:50,018 --> 01:24:54,255
-[Victor] Champ walked in with a purpose.
-Be serious, dog.

1499
01:24:54,956 --> 01:24:58,960
[crowd chanting] Whoop that Trick!

1500
01:25:05,166 --> 01:25:10,872
[Booker] It's about to get sick. Yes. Yes!

1501
01:25:12,474 --> 01:25:14,409
Hey. Cut the music. Listen, Trick.

1502
01:25:14,476 --> 01:25:17,145
Listen, listen, listen.

1503
01:25:17,212 --> 01:25:18,980
I don't know if you know me or not,

1504
01:25:19,047 --> 01:25:21,349
but I've been around the block
a couple times.

1505
01:25:21,416 --> 01:25:23,651
I've seen how these things go.

1506
01:25:24,252 --> 01:25:27,355
Neither of us are getting put
through a table tonight

1507
01:25:27,422 --> 01:25:30,058
because Ethan Page only showed up

1508
01:25:30,125 --> 01:25:32,126
to handle business.

1509
01:25:34,395 --> 01:25:37,765
So let's handle business then. Ava.

1510
01:25:37,832 --> 01:25:41,436
Please, give this man, Ethan Page,
whatever it is that he wants.

1511
01:25:42,570 --> 01:25:45,607
So Trick Williams
and every other person in this building

1512
01:25:45,673 --> 01:25:47,342
can get exactly what we want.

1513
01:25:47,408 --> 01:25:49,878
And that's for me to whoop your ass.

1514
01:25:56,217 --> 01:25:58,319
You see, Ethan, I know that you new here,

1515
01:25:58,386 --> 01:26:01,723
so let Trick Williams help you out
and tell you how things go.

1516
01:26:01,789 --> 01:26:04,225
Let me tell you how things go.
You listen to me.

1517
01:26:04,292 --> 01:26:06,161
I'm Trick Williams. This my house.

1518
01:26:06,628 --> 01:26:08,630
[crowd cheering]

1519
01:26:09,531 --> 01:26:12,433
I've been here for a little minute now.

1520
01:26:12,500 --> 01:26:14,469
2.0 to be exact.

1521
01:26:14,536 --> 01:26:17,305
I got a few boys in the back
who being waiting here.

1522
01:26:23,278 --> 01:26:26,948
I got a few friends in the back
who've been here with me the whole time.

1523
01:26:27,015 --> 01:26:28,249
And this crowd here,

1524
01:26:28,316 --> 01:26:30,718
they've been here with me
the whole time too.

1525
01:26:30,785 --> 01:26:32,187
[crowd cheering]

1526
01:26:32,887 --> 01:26:34,956
Through the ups, through the downs,

1527
01:26:35,023 --> 01:26:38,193
through everything in between,
they've been here.

1528
01:26:39,227 --> 01:26:41,429
See, my problem with you is

1529
01:26:41,496 --> 01:26:46,234
you think you just come to NXT.
My house, my home.

1530
01:26:46,768 --> 01:26:48,903
Jump the line. Jump me.

1531
01:26:48,970 --> 01:26:52,373
The NXT champion. You must be crazy.

1532
01:26:52,907 --> 01:26:54,776
So this is how we gonna do it.

1533
01:26:55,877 --> 01:26:58,046
I'm gonna make an example
out of you, Ethan,

1534
01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:02,417
for every other man
and every other business around the world

1535
01:27:02,483 --> 01:27:05,820
who thinks you can find your way in NXT
and get a title opportunity.

1536
01:27:05,887 --> 01:27:08,690
Because of you, I'm gonna take you out,

1537
01:27:11,492 --> 01:27:13,394
Ethan. Let me make this crystal clear.

1538
01:27:13,461 --> 01:27:15,129
Make sure you open your ears
so you hear

1539
01:27:15,196 --> 01:27:16,531
what Trick Williams wants to tell you,

1540
01:27:19,033 --> 01:27:21,402
-Man to man.
-Whoa, whoa!

1541
01:27:21,469 --> 01:27:23,137
You're stepping
a little bit too close there.

1542
01:27:23,204 --> 01:27:25,306
And I think you need to chill out.

1543
01:27:25,373 --> 01:27:29,277
I said we're doing business, okay?
Calm down. But I understand.

1544
01:27:29,344 --> 01:27:32,013
I understand why you're all emotional
and you're angry

1545
01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:33,548
because you have every right to be.

1546
01:27:33,615 --> 01:27:37,018
The last time we crossed paths,
I knock you into Lash.

1547
01:27:37,085 --> 01:27:41,289
I grabbed that title,
held it up for the entire world to see.

1548
01:27:41,356 --> 01:27:44,425
It was a whole thing.
You have every right to be pissed off.

1549
01:27:44,492 --> 01:27:46,961
But listen to me very clearly, Trick.

1550
01:27:47,028 --> 01:27:49,464
You and I,
whether these people like it or not,

1551
01:27:49,530 --> 01:27:52,767
have a lot more in common than you think.

1552
01:27:52,834 --> 01:27:57,572
Oh. I've been watching.
I saw you with Carmelo Hayes.

1553
01:27:58,006 --> 01:28:01,976
I saw the spotlight on him
and you in his shadow.

1554
01:28:02,043 --> 01:28:05,179
And I've been in that position
a hundred times over in my career.

1555
01:28:05,246 --> 01:28:09,284
The only difference is
I wasn't able to do what you did.

1556
01:28:09,350 --> 01:28:11,119
And I respect you for that.

1557
01:28:11,185 --> 01:28:14,489
You broke out, you took that spotlight

1558
01:28:14,555 --> 01:28:17,125
and put it where you wanted it, on you.

1559
01:28:17,191 --> 01:28:20,428
And now you are the NXT champion.

1560
01:28:22,630 --> 01:28:24,165
But listen to me, Trick.

1561
01:28:24,866 --> 01:28:30,271
With that title comes the responsibility
of that giant ass target on your back.

1562
01:28:30,338 --> 01:28:33,675
But more importantly,
it comes with that spotlight.

1563
01:28:33,741 --> 01:28:34,909
That Ethan Page…

1564
01:28:34,976 --> 01:28:37,779
Oh, I crave that spotlight.

1565
01:28:37,845 --> 01:28:40,448
So it was nothing personal
when I attacked you.

1566
01:28:40,515 --> 01:28:44,185
No, it was me making opportunity for…

1567
01:28:44,819 --> 01:28:45,853
…me.

1568
01:28:45,920 --> 01:28:48,790
So, Ava,
I think I'm ready to sign that contract.

1569
01:28:56,798 --> 01:29:00,702
And now all we need
is the general manager signature.

1570
01:29:01,469 --> 01:29:04,472
Ava, please sign the dog on contract.

1571
01:29:04,539 --> 01:29:07,575
Trick, I can't agree
to the stipulation in this. Just trust me.

1572
01:29:07,642 --> 01:29:09,610
What's up? What's the problem?
Why not?

1573
01:29:09,677 --> 01:29:11,379
-Because.
-Because…

1574
01:29:11,446 --> 01:29:16,084
if she signs the contract,
she's signing on for two things, Trick.

1575
01:29:16,150 --> 01:29:20,988
One, she's giving me my first match
in this company

1576
01:29:21,055 --> 01:29:25,526
this Sunday at Battleground
for this NXT title.

1577
01:29:26,994 --> 01:29:33,701
And two, she's signing on
for the end of the "Whoop That" era.

1578
01:29:38,673 --> 01:29:41,342
Ava, you've been here with me
for a long time.

1579
01:29:41,409 --> 01:29:43,177
We built this place together.

1580
01:29:43,711 --> 01:29:45,646
And let me make this crystal clear.

1581
01:29:46,581 --> 01:29:48,549
You can't end nothing, dog.

1582
01:29:49,817 --> 01:29:53,287
And come June 9th at Battleground,

1583
01:29:53,354 --> 01:29:55,189
you're gonna be hearing one thing.

1584
01:29:55,256 --> 01:29:57,325
Best believe you'll be hearing one thing.

1585
01:29:58,192 --> 01:30:01,095
NXT, tell him what we going to do.

1586
01:30:01,162 --> 01:30:04,198
[crowd chanting] Whoop that Trick!

1587
01:30:04,265 --> 01:30:05,633
[Ethan Page] Then sign it.

1588
01:30:06,634 --> 01:30:09,637
[crowd chanting] Whoop that Trick!

1589
01:30:15,276 --> 01:30:17,912
[Victor] This is
an unprecedented contract.

1590
01:30:17,979 --> 01:30:20,982
Ethan Page gets an NXT title opportunity

1591
01:30:21,048 --> 01:30:23,484
and his first NXT match.

1592
01:30:23,551 --> 01:30:25,219
All bets are off.

1593
01:30:25,286 --> 01:30:26,888
The grounds for battle

1594
01:30:26,954 --> 01:30:29,924
have certainly been
laid down here tonight.

1595
01:30:29,991 --> 01:30:34,796
The only question that I have is,
whose ego is going to be bruised?

1596
01:30:34,996 --> 01:30:37,432
Sunday in Vegas at NXT Battleground.

1597
01:30:37,498 --> 01:30:38,833
