[introduction music playing]

2
00:00:03,503 --> 00:00:05,505
[narrator] Then…

3
00:00:08,208 --> 00:00:10,210
now…

4
00:00:14,214 --> 00:00:16,216
forever…

5
00:00:23,556 --> 00:00:25,558
together.

00:00:26,559 --> 00:00:29,562
[music fading out]

7
00:00:31,931 --> 00:00:34,734
[upbeat music playing]

8
00:00:34,801 --> 00:00:38,238
[man 1] We're about to do it
like it should be done.

9
00:00:38,304 --> 00:00:39,939
This is No Mercy.

10
00:00:40,006 --> 00:00:42,675
[Vic]
Five championship matches in Denver.

11
00:00:42,742 --> 00:00:47,313
The NXT Women's North American
Championship hanging in the balance.

12
00:00:47,380 --> 00:00:50,383
[rock music playing]

13
00:00:52,485 --> 00:00:56,756
[Vic] Jordynne stands out one more time.

14
00:00:56,823 --> 00:01:03,830
It's Tatum Paxley. Paxley might have just
given sleepy time a whole new meaning.

15
00:01:04,097 --> 00:01:06,800
The Ruler of NXT, The Don of NXT.

16
00:01:09,602 --> 00:01:13,239
No one has done this to The Ruler.
You gotta be kidding me.

17
00:01:13,306 --> 00:01:16,376
[Booker] Oh, my God.
The strength of this man.

18
00:01:16,443 --> 00:01:20,914
[Vic] Dominating, unconquerable,
North American Champion, Oba Femi.

19
00:01:23,416 --> 00:01:27,420
Tonight, Jaida Parker is ready
to be the next Women's Champion.

20
00:01:27,487 --> 00:01:29,422
[Vic]
This could be Parker's golden moment.

21
00:01:29,489 --> 00:01:31,491
[Book] She's in there with Roxanne Perez.

22
00:01:31,558 --> 00:01:33,159
You're not the prodigy.

23
00:01:33,927 --> 00:01:37,597
[Vic]
She finds the way to get the job done.

24
00:01:38,465 --> 00:01:40,767
[crowd shouting]

25
00:01:40,834 --> 00:01:43,236
[Book] Here we go.

26
00:01:44,938 --> 00:01:50,210
-[Vic] And Perez reign continues.
-[Roxanne] There's no one better than me.

27
00:01:50,276 --> 00:01:52,378
[crowd cheering]

28
00:01:53,646 --> 00:01:59,385
[Vic] The speculation is over.
Giulia has arrived at NXT.

29
00:02:00,453 --> 00:02:01,621
[musing fading out]

30
00:02:01,688 --> 00:02:02,889
[crowd cheering]

31
00:02:02,956 --> 00:02:04,591
[Vic] Brothers no more.

32
00:02:04,657 --> 00:02:08,394
TNA wrestler Zachary Wentz
looks to extract revenge after

33
00:02:08,461 --> 00:02:11,064
the betrayal of his former partner,
Wes Lee.

34
00:02:11,131 --> 00:02:12,265
[Book] This is curse.

35
00:02:12,332 --> 00:02:15,702
[man 2]
Zach, I am tired of taking care of you.

36
00:02:15,768 --> 00:02:18,004
[man 3] Nine years of friendship gone.

37
00:02:18,071 --> 00:02:20,640
I'm tired of you blaming me
for your problems.

38
00:02:21,207 --> 00:02:24,177
[Vic] Oh, my God! That's Trey Miguel.

39
00:02:24,244 --> 00:02:26,012
-[Book] Damn.
-[Vic] Wentz is feeling it.

40
00:02:26,079 --> 00:02:30,984
The adrenaline pumping through his veins.
Wentz shows no mercy.

41
00:02:32,285 --> 00:02:34,888
[Vic] Axiom and Frazer
get their remake against

42
00:02:34,954 --> 00:02:38,024
Andre Chase and Ridge Holland
for the NXT Tag Team Titles.

43
00:02:38,091 --> 00:02:41,261
[man 4] At the end of No Mercy,
we are going to be two-time

44
00:02:41,327 --> 00:02:43,162
NXT Tag Team Champions.

45
00:02:43,229 --> 00:02:44,731
[man 5] Whatever it takes,

46
00:02:44,797 --> 00:02:49,002
as long as we have these Tag Team Titles,
I'll always have your back.

47
00:02:50,036 --> 00:02:52,772
[Vic]
And the challengers reclaim the titles.

48
00:02:52,839 --> 00:02:55,408
[crowd cheering]

49
00:02:56,276 --> 00:02:59,712
[Vic]
What the hell, Ridge? What are you doing?

50
00:02:59,779 --> 00:03:02,615
[crowd shouting]

51
00:03:08,454 --> 00:03:11,524
[Vic] The rage of Ridge unleashed.

52
00:03:14,194 --> 00:03:19,866
The NXT Championship. TNA wrestler
Joe Hendry, all ego, Ethan Page,

53
00:03:19,933 --> 00:03:25,438
and the special referee, Trick Williams.
Here we go, the main event of No Mercy.

54
00:03:25,505 --> 00:03:27,607
[man 6] I am the NXT champion.

55
00:03:27,674 --> 00:03:32,111
-Who the hell do you think you are?
-[man 7] When I kill him with a smile.

56
00:03:32,178 --> 00:03:37,684
[man 8] Ethan, I'm here to win
the NXT Championship.

57
00:03:37,750 --> 00:03:40,820
-[Vic] Do you believe?
-[Book] I believe.

58
00:03:40,887 --> 00:03:45,191
[Vic] The foot was under the bottom
rope. Just didn't see the Lone Wolf.

59
00:03:46,259 --> 00:03:50,196
[crowd] One, two, three!

60
00:03:50,263 --> 00:03:51,497
[bell ringing]

61
00:03:53,099 --> 00:03:56,769
[Vic]
Our champion, Ethan Page, victorious.

62
00:03:59,939 --> 00:04:02,875
Pete Dunne with a blindsided attack.

63
00:04:03,576 --> 00:04:07,814
Trick's got to figure it out,
cause he faces Dunne in 48 hours.

64
00:04:11,784 --> 00:04:13,386
[crowd cheering]

65
00:04:13,453 --> 00:04:15,355
[Vic] Oh, Booker, are you ready?

66
00:04:15,421 --> 00:04:20,526
Cause we're about to feel the fallout
from No Mercy.

67
00:04:20,593 --> 00:04:23,997
[hip hop music playing]

68
00:04:24,063 --> 00:04:26,766
[crowd chanting]

69
00:04:26,833 --> 00:04:29,836
[Book] Yeah! What?

70
00:04:31,004 --> 00:04:34,007
Yeah. Uh-huh.

71
00:04:34,707 --> 00:04:37,777
I like it. Oh, yeah, man.

72
00:04:38,277 --> 00:04:39,746
Oh, yeah, man.

73
00:04:41,748 --> 00:04:44,050
Quick bit.
You see that boy right there?

74
00:04:44,117 --> 00:04:46,052
-You know who he is?
-[Vic] Who is it?

75
00:04:46,119 --> 00:04:47,987
[Book] Willie.

76
00:04:48,855 --> 00:04:55,762
[female announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome Trick Williams.

77
00:04:55,828 --> 00:04:58,931
Hey. Yo, yo, yo.

78
00:05:03,469 --> 00:05:08,574
Now, I appreciate that. But check it.
I ain't out here to do a bunch of talking.

79
00:05:09,042 --> 00:05:11,377
I'm out here for one reason.

80
00:05:12,278 --> 00:05:14,047
You started this.

81
00:05:14,113 --> 00:05:16,582
But I'm gonna finish this.

82
00:05:18,217 --> 00:05:21,621
Pete Dunne, bring your ass out here.

83
00:05:21,688 --> 00:05:24,123
[crowd chanting]

84
00:05:24,190 --> 00:05:27,427
[R&B music playing]

85
00:05:27,493 --> 00:05:30,496
[Vic]
This is certainly not The Bruiserweight.

86
00:05:35,968 --> 00:05:38,104
Cut the music.

87
00:05:38,571 --> 00:05:40,440
Cut the music.

88
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:46,846
Trick, I am so sorry
that I'm not Pete Dunne.

89
00:05:48,815 --> 00:05:53,252
But I am your NXT Champion.
All Ego, Ethan Page.

90
00:05:55,421 --> 00:06:01,394
But you know that. You were raising
my hand this past Sunday at No Mercy.

91
00:06:01,461 --> 00:06:04,464
[shouts from the crowd]

92
00:06:05,665 --> 00:06:10,002
Trick, you know, it's usually a tradition,

93
00:06:10,069 --> 00:06:15,308
after someone successfully defends their
championship, they get to open the show.

94
00:06:18,611 --> 00:06:22,115
I figured you would know that.
But, oh, that's right.

95
00:06:22,181 --> 00:06:26,819
You only successfully defended
your championship once.

96
00:06:29,355 --> 00:06:33,926
Ethan Page. How about you put on
some clothes and shut the hell up?

97
00:06:33,993 --> 00:06:36,562
[crowd cheering]

98
00:06:36,629 --> 00:06:41,134
Because obviously, you and me, we not
the same. See, I'm a man of my word.

99
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,670
And I called your title match
right down the middle.

100
00:06:45,338 --> 00:06:49,609
But don't get too comfortable.
I'm coming back for my title.

101
00:06:49,675 --> 00:06:52,078
You don't gotta worry about it.

102
00:06:52,145 --> 00:06:57,850
But for right now, I got some
unfinished business with Pete Dunne.

103
00:06:57,917 --> 00:07:02,421
Oh, oh, oh. Trick, let's go back
a couple words there.

104
00:07:02,488 --> 00:07:05,091
You said it. Your title?

105
00:07:06,225 --> 00:07:07,560
Really?

106
00:07:07,627 --> 00:07:11,330
Because I thought that Ethan Page
would be defending his championship

107
00:07:11,397 --> 00:07:16,569
in four weeks when we moved
to the CW Network October 1st,

108
00:07:16,636 --> 00:07:19,672
Tuesday night in Chicago.

109
00:07:19,739 --> 00:07:24,510
Yeah, that's me defending that title,
not you. You, though,

110
00:07:24,577 --> 00:07:29,916
I'd be surprised if you
even made it to Chicago.

111
00:07:31,317 --> 00:07:33,052
[crowd screaming]

112
00:07:33,119 --> 00:07:37,690
[Vic] Oh! Well, he wanted
Pete Dunne, he's got Pete Dunne.

113
00:07:37,757 --> 00:07:40,626
Dunne tried another sneak attack.
Trick was ready.

114
00:07:41,494 --> 00:07:44,464
[Booker] Not tonight, Dunne. Not tonight.

115
00:07:44,864 --> 00:07:49,068
[Vic] Security coming out here
for these two meet in the main event.

116
00:07:50,303 --> 00:07:55,241
Look, Book, you can be afraid
of the chaos, or you can embrace it.

117
00:07:57,610 --> 00:08:00,813
Listen, we called our shot,
and now all we gotta do is execute.

118
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,015
Right, baby. Gallus, Rascalz
gonna be like running uphill.

119
00:08:03,082 --> 00:08:05,585
Hey, baby. Two a day, it doesn't matter,
cause we hit first.

120
00:08:05,651 --> 00:08:08,354
-And we hit last.
-Right, baby. Honk, honk!

121
00:08:08,421 --> 00:08:11,791
Wait, wait. Set yourselves up
all you want. It doesn't matter.

122
00:08:11,858 --> 00:08:14,627
Me and Wolfie are running
right through you and The Rascalz.

123
00:08:14,694 --> 00:08:17,129
Aye, if you want some content
for your social media,

124
00:08:17,196 --> 00:08:18,631
how about you come to see us?

125
00:08:18,698 --> 00:08:21,033
How about we just
fill up the tank right now?

126
00:08:21,100 --> 00:08:24,103
[shouting]

127
00:08:31,677 --> 00:08:35,114
See, that's why I told my boys
to stay out of their way.

128
00:08:35,748 --> 00:08:39,385
-Look, it's Jaida Parker.
-Aren't you missing something?

129
00:08:39,452 --> 00:08:41,487
Oh, that's right. You lost on Sunday.

130
00:08:41,554 --> 00:08:44,891
At least I'm not riding on the clout
of these two.

131
00:08:44,957 --> 00:08:48,361
-This kitty cat has some claws.
-I don't clout chase, honey.

132
00:08:48,427 --> 00:08:52,665
And if your ribs or your heart
isn't too broken, I'll prove it.

133
00:08:53,065 --> 00:08:56,168
Why don't you make sure you bring
your little mommies with you?

134
00:08:56,235 --> 00:08:59,105
Oh, I will. Go ahead, keep walking.

135
00:08:59,805 --> 00:09:04,911
[Vic] Well, tensions are running
high tonight in the entire locker room.

136
00:09:04,977 --> 00:09:07,980
[hip hop music playing]

137
00:09:09,081 --> 00:09:11,217
[bell ringing]

138
00:09:11,284 --> 00:09:16,856
[announcer] A Tag Team Championship,
number one contenders, Turbo Red Max.

139
00:09:16,923 --> 00:09:23,930
Introducing first the team are Trey
Miguel and the TNA X Division Champion,

140
00:09:24,363 --> 00:09:28,601
Zachary Wentz, The Rascalz.

141
00:09:28,668 --> 00:09:30,536
[Vic] Three teams, one goal.

142
00:09:30,603 --> 00:09:34,473
Who's walking out
as number one contenders tonight?

143
00:09:37,743 --> 00:09:39,045
[rock music playing]

144
00:09:39,111 --> 00:09:41,614
[Vic] Back live on NXT.

145
00:09:43,916 --> 00:09:48,888
[announcer] Next, accompanied
by Joe Coffey, representing Gallus,

146
00:09:48,955 --> 00:09:52,158
Mark Coffey and Wolfgang.

147
00:09:52,224 --> 00:09:53,893
[Vic]
Coffey and Wolfgang, of course,

148
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:58,431
a pair of former Tag Team Champions.
And loving it, almost.

149
00:09:59,498 --> 00:10:03,002
See Wolfgang, it's still crazy to think
that Mark Coffey

150
00:10:03,069 --> 00:10:05,338
is the calm one of the trio.

151
00:10:05,404 --> 00:10:08,007
-[crowd cheering]
-[rock music playing]

152
00:10:08,074 --> 00:10:14,313
[announcer] And their opponents,
the team of Hank Walker and Tank Ledger.

153
00:10:14,380 --> 00:10:18,551
-[Book] Did you say calm?
-[Vic] Yeah, that's the…

154
00:10:18,617 --> 00:10:20,119
When you take a look at it,

155
00:10:20,186 --> 00:10:23,889
it's kind of odd to say
when it rolls off the tongue.

156
00:10:23,956 --> 00:10:26,726
But then we're looking at the third team,
Hank, Tank,

157
00:10:26,792 --> 00:10:30,162
do they have what it takes, Booker,
to win tonight?

158
00:10:30,229 --> 00:10:36,936
[Book] You know, I must say, Hank and
Tank, most improved Tag Team here in 2024.

159
00:10:37,003 --> 00:10:39,338
But that means nothing, man.
That means nothing

160
00:10:39,405 --> 00:10:43,309
when it comes down to experience,
knowledge, understanding,

161
00:10:43,376 --> 00:10:45,111
that goes to the Gallus.

162
00:10:45,177 --> 00:10:47,246
[Vic] You are the king
of the backhanded compliment.

163
00:10:47,313 --> 00:10:50,850
They're good in 2024,
but they're not good enough tonight.

164
00:10:50,916 --> 00:10:53,419
-[Book] I gave them props, didn't I?
-[Vic] You did.

165
00:10:53,486 --> 00:10:55,488
You need to get
on their social media show.

166
00:10:55,554 --> 00:10:59,692
[Book] I wouldn't have said
anything of the sort about Walker.

167
00:10:59,759 --> 00:11:00,860
[Vic] Certainly not.

168
00:11:00,926 --> 00:11:04,030
Look at Gallus going right at Hank
and Tank. No love loss there.

169
00:11:04,096 --> 00:11:06,499
-But here come The Rascalz.
-[Book] That's the inexperience.

170
00:11:06,565 --> 00:11:10,236
You turn your back on the Gallus boys,
you might get jacked.

171
00:11:10,302 --> 00:11:13,439
[Vic] Wentz had a big weekend
with some help from Trey Miguel.

172
00:11:13,506 --> 00:11:17,910
Zachary Wentz had three matches,
five days, covering three states.

173
00:11:17,977 --> 00:11:22,882
Is he 100 % physically and emotionally?
Both superstars with that double stomp.

174
00:11:22,948 --> 00:11:27,420
What a matchup, though,
Zachary Wentz had with Wes Lee.

175
00:11:27,486 --> 00:11:30,856
[Book]
No, no, I must say he did go toe-to-toe

176
00:11:30,923 --> 00:11:33,693
with truly one of the best here in NXT.

177
00:11:33,759 --> 00:11:36,595
And not just go toe-to-toe with him.
He got a victory.

178
00:11:36,662 --> 00:11:42,001
[Vic] And Trey Miguel almost
got tossed into the post, as big Hank

179
00:11:42,068 --> 00:11:47,506
running over Miguel, for Trey Miguel, this
is his first match in nearly six weeks.

180
00:11:49,642 --> 00:11:51,110
[Book] One thing about the Rascalz,

181
00:11:51,177 --> 00:11:54,146
they do throw a monkey wrench
in this Tag Team Division.

182
00:11:54,213 --> 00:11:58,317
They're different, they're fast,
agile, mobile, versatile, all that.

183
00:11:58,384 --> 00:12:00,119
Here we go. Oh, wow.

184
00:12:00,186 --> 00:12:02,955
[Vic] …by submission,
become the number one contenders

185
00:12:03,022 --> 00:12:04,924
for the NXT Tag Team Titles.

186
00:12:04,990 --> 00:12:07,126
Nice and rolled through by Miguel,
trying to take down…

187
00:12:07,193 --> 00:12:10,262
This is the danger though,
the Triple Threat match. Right, Book?

188
00:12:10,329 --> 00:12:12,798
[Book] You got to keep your eyes
in the back of your head.

189
00:12:12,865 --> 00:12:15,701
One thing about the Gallus boys,
they got that extra eye.

190
00:12:15,768 --> 00:12:18,070
[Vic] Hank into the cover.
Wolfgang breaking things up.

191
00:12:18,137 --> 00:12:21,240
Hank and Tank operate with the mindset
hit first, hit last.

192
00:12:21,307 --> 00:12:23,676
[Book] Yeah, yeah.
That's the way you want to do it.

193
00:12:23,742 --> 00:12:26,712
You don't waste any time.
If you can sucker somebody

194
00:12:26,779 --> 00:12:29,248
and get a three-count,
that's what you're going to do.

195
00:12:29,315 --> 00:12:31,951
[Vic] Still to come, massive
main event, Trick Williams taking on

196
00:12:32,017 --> 00:12:37,256
Pete Dunne. Has Trick figured it out?
We're going to find out later tonight.

197
00:12:37,323 --> 00:12:40,092
And we're also gonna hear
from the NXT Women's Champion,

198
00:12:40,159 --> 00:12:44,897
Roxanne Perez is live
after that massive victory at No Mercy.

199
00:12:44,964 --> 00:12:47,333
But now we're talk about titles,
the winner of this match become

200
00:12:47,399 --> 00:12:50,469
the number one contenders
to the NXT Tag Team Titles.

201
00:12:50,536 --> 00:12:52,238
Which of course we need to congratulate

202
00:12:52,304 --> 00:12:55,508
Axiom and Frazer,
who reclaimed the gold in Denver.

203
00:12:55,574 --> 00:12:59,211
[Book] Yes. Big, big congratulations
to Axiom and Frazer.

204
00:12:59,278 --> 00:13:02,214
-We talked about the state…
-[Vic] Into the cover!

205
00:13:02,281 --> 00:13:06,252
[Book] Wow! The state
of the Tag Team Division at No Mercy.

206
00:13:06,318 --> 00:13:08,687
And I feel like it's still wide open, man.

207
00:13:08,754 --> 00:13:11,423
It's still wide open
for somebody to step in there

208
00:13:11,490 --> 00:13:13,392
and get that shot and become champion.

209
00:13:13,459 --> 00:13:16,996
[Vic] It was all three
of these teams that made their cases.

210
00:13:17,062 --> 00:13:20,900
Over the weekend our general manager, Ava,
decided, well, prove it in the ring.

211
00:13:20,966 --> 00:13:24,336
And that is what is happening right here
to kick us off on NXT.

212
00:13:24,403 --> 00:13:28,307
[Book] I truly believe the wild card
here in this matchup is The Rascalz.

213
00:13:28,374 --> 00:13:31,944
These guys are here back in NXT
and looking for a gold. I love it.

214
00:13:32,011 --> 00:13:34,346
[Vic]
They're inching closer possibly to gold,

215
00:13:34,413 --> 00:13:37,683
as Miguel into another cover. And again…

216
00:13:37,750 --> 00:13:41,820
[Book] Can you imagine if Hank and Tank
was to do it? Could you have bet?

217
00:13:41,887 --> 00:13:44,723
[Vic] I mean, they had
a major victory just a few weeks ago

218
00:13:44,790 --> 00:13:48,160
over The Good Brothers. I mean, what sort
of momentum can this team build

219
00:13:48,227 --> 00:13:50,496
from a victory like that
carried over into tonight?

220
00:13:50,563 --> 00:13:53,933
[Book] Exactly what I'm talking about.
Getting in like that and stepping up

221
00:13:53,999 --> 00:13:57,803
in a 3-way Triple Threat like this
right here and walking out with a victory.

222
00:13:57,870 --> 00:14:00,506
Confidence can go
straight through the roofs, man,

223
00:14:00,573 --> 00:14:03,409
-if they could just get some new gear.
-[Vic] But I…

224
00:14:03,475 --> 00:14:07,346
You always come back to the gear,
don't you? Oh, Wentz, he's legal.

225
00:14:07,413 --> 00:14:10,516
Big kick, goes over,
Coffey rolling through,

226
00:14:10,583 --> 00:14:13,352
take out the leg,
man goes down and into the submission.

227
00:14:13,419 --> 00:14:17,489
-Big drop kick.
-[Book] Coffey inside. That's it.

228
00:14:17,556 --> 00:14:20,659
[Vic] Oh, my, just breaking it up.

229
00:14:20,726 --> 00:14:24,129
[Book] Walker in the right place
at the right time.

230
00:14:24,196 --> 00:14:26,031
Give this big man credit.

231
00:14:26,098 --> 00:14:28,400
[Vic] I've been trying
to have you give them credit

232
00:14:28,467 --> 00:14:29,468
for a couple of months now.

233
00:14:29,535 --> 00:14:34,773
You're just starting to come around now,
as Wentz chopping away at Mark Coffey.

234
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,343
Just got caught, though. And again.

235
00:14:38,177 --> 00:14:41,113
Triple Threat rules.
Look who's in control.

236
00:14:41,180 --> 00:14:44,650
Look who's standing.
Look who's overpowering the competition.

237
00:14:44,717 --> 00:14:46,685
[Book] Double up! Double up!

238
00:14:46,752 --> 00:14:49,488
-[Vic] It's Hank, it's Tank.
-[Book] Oh, yes.

239
00:14:49,555 --> 00:14:51,957
[crowd cheering]

240
00:14:52,024 --> 00:14:56,161
[Vic] Gallus wants some.
Hank and Tank, taking care of them two.

241
00:14:56,228 --> 00:14:58,364
Hank and Tank rolling.

242
00:14:58,430 --> 00:15:00,699
[Book]
There's a spine tingler right there, man.

243
00:15:00,766 --> 00:15:03,502
[Vic] Say that again.

244
00:15:05,037 --> 00:15:09,241
Which one of these three teams
is going to walk out tonight

245
00:15:09,308 --> 00:15:12,311
number one contenders
to the NXT Tag Team Titles?

246
00:15:15,614 --> 00:15:17,049
[shouts from the crowd]

247
00:15:17,116 --> 00:15:20,653
[Vic] As you saw throughout the
break, the Gallus boys have been on top.

248
00:15:20,719 --> 00:15:24,223
This is a duo that held the NXT UK
Tag Titles for nearly 500 days.

249
00:15:24,290 --> 00:15:27,893
The NXT Tag Titles at one point
for over 170 days.

250
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:32,998
They know what it takes to get the job
done in high profile matches like this.

251
00:15:33,065 --> 00:15:36,869
Into the cover and somehow
Hank able to kickout.

252
00:15:36,935 --> 00:15:41,040
[Book] Let's talk about the Gallus boys
coming off a hiatus with in 30 days

253
00:15:41,106 --> 00:15:44,743
capturing those Tag Team Championships.
Looking to go on another big run.

254
00:15:44,810 --> 00:15:47,746
And right now
they are in total, total control

255
00:15:47,813 --> 00:15:52,151
with the direction of that man,
Joe Coffey, good to the last drop.

256
00:15:52,217 --> 00:15:53,319
You know it, man.

257
00:15:53,385 --> 00:15:58,190
[Vic] He's been on the outside
shouting out, commanding the troops.

258
00:15:58,257 --> 00:16:02,928
But now all three men from three
separate teams starting to swing away.

259
00:16:02,995 --> 00:16:04,997
Who's going to get the better… Whoa.

260
00:16:05,064 --> 00:16:08,734
Looks like The Rascalz…
Gallus trying to work together!

261
00:16:09,935 --> 00:16:13,706
But Hank overcoming the odds, and
take a look right up here from the desk.

262
00:16:13,772 --> 00:16:17,376
Tank is going nuts.
Tank wants in this matchup.

263
00:16:17,443 --> 00:16:19,478
Tank can change the complexion.

264
00:16:19,545 --> 00:16:22,614
-[Book] Tank!
-[Vic] Here we go!

265
00:16:23,482 --> 00:16:24,783
[grunts]

266
00:16:24,850 --> 00:16:26,018
[Book] Oh, baby.

267
00:16:26,085 --> 00:16:31,256
One thing about this guy right here,
he's got that attitude once he gets going.

268
00:16:31,323 --> 00:16:32,524
Oh, yes!

269
00:16:32,591 --> 00:16:35,160
[Vic]
He's got a motor of a Ferrari.

270
00:16:35,227 --> 00:16:38,497
-[Book] Oh, he's dangerous.
-[Vic] He hits like a tank.

271
00:16:38,897 --> 00:16:42,968
And like we said earlier, their motto,
hit first, hit last. Wow!

272
00:16:43,035 --> 00:16:46,105
That could be it. Do we got number one
contenders in this moment?

273
00:16:46,171 --> 00:16:51,076
And Zachary went saving things for
The Rascalz as Trey Miguel made the tag.

274
00:16:51,143 --> 00:16:53,812
Miguel now legal step up enziguri,
just rock Tank.

275
00:16:54,713 --> 00:16:58,584
In comes Mark Coffey.
Look at this offense.

276
00:16:59,952 --> 00:17:02,154
[Book] Beautiful, beautiful.

277
00:17:03,055 --> 00:17:06,959
Miguel's on fire right now, but got…
Oh, what the…

278
00:17:07,025 --> 00:17:09,361
[Vic] Step up enziguri.

279
00:17:09,428 --> 00:17:13,098
[Book] He must have went with that shot.
Took a lot of the pressure off of it.

280
00:17:13,165 --> 00:17:16,135
This kid right here is on the move.
I like it.

281
00:17:16,201 --> 00:17:19,304
[Vic] Oh, nice scorpion kick
special neck breaker combo.

282
00:17:19,371 --> 00:17:21,240
But Tank got wiped out with the DDT.

283
00:17:21,306 --> 00:17:25,978
Miguel into the cover, the count,
and everybody coming in

284
00:17:26,044 --> 00:17:28,480
to save this matchup
for their respective teams.

285
00:17:28,547 --> 00:17:31,283
[Book]
I'm impressed with these Rascalz, Vic.

286
00:17:31,350 --> 00:17:35,120
[Vic] We had questioned before we
came on air, you and I were talking,

287
00:17:35,187 --> 00:17:40,125
how would The Rascalz handle
the emotion carryover from the weekend.

288
00:17:40,192 --> 00:17:43,796
They certainly have been answering
our questions. Hey, Joe Coffey!

289
00:17:43,862 --> 00:17:45,998
Yeah, there's your man.

290
00:17:46,065 --> 00:17:50,869
There is no disqualification.
Hey, Je'Von Evans getting himself… Whoa!

291
00:17:50,936 --> 00:17:52,738
-[Book] He's…
-[Vic] Booker!

292
00:17:52,805 --> 00:17:54,940
[Book] What the hell's going on?

293
00:17:55,007 --> 00:18:00,179
[Vic] It's The Good Brothers taking out
Hank and Tank, but Tank's on his feet.

294
00:18:00,245 --> 00:18:02,915
Turns around, runs into Mark Coffey.

295
00:18:02,981 --> 00:18:05,851
But look who's standing.
Look who's climbing.

296
00:18:06,652 --> 00:18:10,422
Look who's flying, Miguel.

297
00:18:10,823 --> 00:18:11,824
[Book] Is that it?

298
00:18:11,890 --> 00:18:16,161
-[Vic] Wentz, into the cover.
-[Book] Double up! One time.

299
00:18:16,228 --> 00:18:19,965
[Vic]
Celebration continues for them Rascalz.

300
00:18:20,466 --> 00:18:26,338
[announcer]
Here are your winners, The Rascalz.

301
00:18:26,405 --> 00:18:28,540
-[crowd cheering]
-[music playing]

302
00:18:28,607 --> 00:18:33,312
[Vic] The emotional high
for The Rascalz continues.

303
00:18:34,213 --> 00:18:37,349
But this is when things was starting
to break down. First was Joe Coffey.

304
00:18:37,416 --> 00:18:39,618
Again, no disqualification. Je'Von Evans

305
00:18:39,685 --> 00:18:43,822
has had his issues with Gallus, with
Coffey, but who else who has had issues

306
00:18:43,889 --> 00:18:48,026
with some others is The Good Brothers, who
came out here to take out Hank and Tank.

307
00:18:48,093 --> 00:18:53,365
Which opened the door for this TNA duo
to secure the victory and become

308
00:18:53,432 --> 00:18:58,437
the number one contenders to the NXT
Tag Team Titles. Which means now, Booker,

309
00:18:58,504 --> 00:19:02,274
think about this, next week
part of WWE Week on USA,

310
00:19:02,341 --> 00:19:06,445
Axiom and Frazer defend the titles
against The Rascalz.

311
00:19:06,512 --> 00:19:09,615
[hip hop music playing]

312
00:19:09,681 --> 00:19:11,116
[Sarah] Nathan, Axiom,

313
00:19:11,183 --> 00:19:15,521
congratulations on regaining
your Tag Team Titles at No Mercy.

314
00:19:15,587 --> 00:19:16,955
Thank you very much, Sarah.

315
00:19:17,022 --> 00:19:20,225
These bad boys are back where
they belong. Isn't that right, amigo?

316
00:19:20,292 --> 00:19:22,995
It's kind of sweet,
of course we're happy that we won,

317
00:19:23,061 --> 00:19:26,031
but we have no hard feelings
towards anyone.

318
00:19:26,098 --> 00:19:28,700
Just seeing what Ridge did to them,
we feel pretty bad.

319
00:19:28,767 --> 00:19:31,703
Yeah, I mean, look,
it's a bit ruthless, but we moved.

320
00:19:31,770 --> 00:19:34,139
We know who our next challenges are.
It's very exciting.

321
00:19:34,206 --> 00:19:38,844
Yes, we certainly do.
We just saw The Rascalz get the victory.

322
00:19:39,278 --> 00:19:40,746
Pardon the interruption.

323
00:19:40,812 --> 00:19:44,583
We just came to congratulate you on your
Tag Team Championship victory last Sunday.

324
00:19:44,650 --> 00:19:47,719
Well, it's funny, because this is a match
that a lot of people want to see.

325
00:19:47,786 --> 00:19:51,823
Hey, bro, it's all love. It's all love.
But don't get it twisted.

326
00:19:51,890 --> 00:19:56,795
Trey and I, about to beat y'all next week
and take those NXT Tag Team Championships

327
00:19:56,862 --> 00:19:59,064
to TNA. Come on.

328
00:19:59,131 --> 00:20:01,567
Zach, granted, right?
You are on a roll, my friend.

329
00:20:01,633 --> 00:20:04,670
But come on, you really think a change
of partner is gonna change much?

330
00:20:04,736 --> 00:20:10,676
Oh, hey, at least this partner, we're on
the same mindset. Tag Team gold, baby.

331
00:20:10,742 --> 00:20:12,945
Can you two say the same?

332
00:20:13,011 --> 00:20:15,280
Yes. Yes, we can.

333
00:20:15,347 --> 00:20:18,350
Yeah, yeah.
Says the one with the singles titles.

334
00:20:18,817 --> 00:20:21,954
All right. Come on, amigo.
See you later, Sarah.

335
00:20:22,020 --> 00:20:25,023
[crowd chatter]

336
00:20:25,557 --> 00:20:28,860
[Vic]
Oh, I cannot wait, Book, for next week.

337
00:20:28,927 --> 00:20:32,664
What a high octane offensive affair
that's gonna be.

338
00:20:33,131 --> 00:20:36,134
Oh, my gosh, you're smiling ear to ear.

339
00:20:36,201 --> 00:20:39,204
-[Book laughing]
-[rock music playing]

340
00:20:42,641 --> 00:20:43,642
[bell ringing]

341
00:20:43,709 --> 00:20:47,379
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall,

342
00:20:47,446 --> 00:20:52,117
introducing first, Lexis King.

343
00:20:52,184 --> 00:20:55,754
[Book]
Stand up. Stand up for greatness, Vic.

344
00:20:55,821 --> 00:20:58,957
-[Vic] I will not.
-[Book] That man, Lexis King.

345
00:20:59,024 --> 00:21:03,562
[Vic] Yeah, that man might have talked
himself into a corner here tonight.

346
00:21:03,629 --> 00:21:06,298
King, Mensah, next.

347
00:21:08,934 --> 00:21:12,871
Trick, it has been a chaotic start to NXT.
What do you think of everything going on?

348
00:21:12,938 --> 00:21:14,773
Look, Blake, I ain't thinking.
I'm just moving.

349
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:19,945
Whether Pete did it on purpose or not,
it don't matter. I'm ready for war. Yeah.

350
00:21:20,012 --> 00:21:22,080
[Pete] I'm ready right now.

351
00:21:22,147 --> 00:21:25,250
[grunts]

352
00:21:25,317 --> 00:21:29,087
[man 1]
Hey, hey! Knock it of! That's enough!

353
00:21:29,154 --> 00:21:31,590
Back it up! let's go, come on!

354
00:21:31,657 --> 00:21:34,526
[shouts]

355
00:21:34,593 --> 00:21:36,161
[Vic] We're going to need more security.

356
00:21:36,228 --> 00:21:38,130
They have to put them
on separate sides of the building,

357
00:21:38,196 --> 00:21:42,334
because these two have been relentless
since we started the night.

358
00:21:42,401 --> 00:21:45,404
[dance music playing]

359
00:21:49,941 --> 00:21:51,643
[announcer] And his opponent,

360
00:21:51,710 --> 00:21:56,048
accompanied by Jakara Jackson
and Lash Legend,

361
00:21:56,114 --> 00:22:01,453
representing Meta-Four, Oro Mensah.

362
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,122
[Vic]
As we try to calm things down once again,

363
00:22:04,189 --> 00:22:07,926
let's go back, Book,
to last week here on NXT.

364
00:22:11,330 --> 00:22:13,899
All I'm saying is that Noam Dar

365
00:22:13,965 --> 00:22:17,636
is the real daddy of Meta-Four,
which is quite evident.

366
00:22:17,703 --> 00:22:19,738
He was quite a father figure for you,
wasn't he?

367
00:22:19,805 --> 00:22:22,974
You were just so upset
when Ethan took him out.

368
00:22:23,041 --> 00:22:26,378
Look at him.
Dad Bod with the dad jokes. Look at him.

369
00:22:26,445 --> 00:22:31,650
My guy is very rich
for somebody who lacks a father figure.

370
00:22:31,717 --> 00:22:32,951
[the women screaming]

371
00:22:33,018 --> 00:22:37,789
[Vic] As we're reliving, Booker, when it
comes to talking about someone family,

372
00:22:37,856 --> 00:22:41,026
things can get personal real fast.

373
00:22:41,093 --> 00:22:42,461
[bell ringing]

374
00:22:42,527 --> 00:22:46,365
[Book] But you gotta understand,
Lexis King was just speaking facts, man.

375
00:22:46,431 --> 00:22:51,069
I mean, Noam Dar
was the top dog in Meta-Four,

376
00:22:51,136 --> 00:22:53,405
three-time Heritage Cup Champion.

377
00:22:53,472 --> 00:22:55,574
-He's done it all.
-[Vic] I get what you're saying.

378
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,378
And yes, Lexis King did bring up Noam Dar.
Nice takedown by Oro Mensah.

379
00:22:59,444 --> 00:23:02,547
Swinging with right hand,
because this is personal to Oro.

380
00:23:02,614 --> 00:23:03,882
Into a cover and a kickout.

381
00:23:03,949 --> 00:23:07,919
But what Lexis doesn't see
is that Meta-Four, they're all equals.

382
00:23:07,986 --> 00:23:09,521
A family unit, four as one.

383
00:23:09,588 --> 00:23:12,324
Something that Oro
has looked for his entire life.

384
00:23:12,390 --> 00:23:15,127
[Book]
Oh, Vic. That's not the way groups work.

385
00:23:15,193 --> 00:23:16,762
[Vic] It's the way Meta-Four works.

386
00:23:16,828 --> 00:23:19,898
[Book] It's got to be somebody
that's heating this thing up.

387
00:23:19,965 --> 00:23:23,802
Somebody with the vision
of what his thing is going to go.

388
00:23:23,869 --> 00:23:25,837
That was Noam Dar. Come on, man.

389
00:23:25,904 --> 00:23:30,308
[Vic] Striking with vengeance right now
is Oro Mensah. I will say it, oh, nasty!

390
00:23:30,375 --> 00:23:32,978
-Oh, my word. Bam!
-[Book] Noam Dar

391
00:23:33,044 --> 00:23:36,681
would be proud of this man right here,
Oro, for stepping up…

392
00:23:36,748 --> 00:23:39,885
[Vic] Into another cover,
taking it to King tonight as Oro Mensah…

393
00:23:39,951 --> 00:23:42,521
Look, you were right.
I have to admit it, right here tonight.

394
00:23:42,587 --> 00:23:45,023
Put it down in your book.
You were right.

395
00:23:45,090 --> 00:23:47,659
You were right about the main man
at Meta-Four since the Start.

396
00:23:47,726 --> 00:23:51,163
And he's really been peeling back layers
of himself, talking about his family.

397
00:23:51,229 --> 00:23:54,166
It's almost like a weight, though,
has come off his shoulder.

398
00:23:54,232 --> 00:23:58,703
Nice rolling heel kick, right into
the center of the face of Lexis King.

399
00:23:58,770 --> 00:24:02,240
-[Book] Write this date down.
-[Vic] Focus on the match.

400
00:24:02,307 --> 00:24:06,244
Your guy's in trouble. Your TV's hot.
He's getting his ass kicked right now.

401
00:24:06,311 --> 00:24:09,214
-[Book] You see that? That right there?
-[Vic] And he's running away.

402
00:24:09,281 --> 00:24:15,287
Lexis King's running away.
King got caught right here in front of us.

403
00:24:16,621 --> 00:24:20,759
It is not good to be the King
right now, is it, Booker?

404
00:24:20,826 --> 00:24:24,930
No, no, it is. And right there…
Like I said, you got to give it up

405
00:24:24,996 --> 00:24:28,133
for Ora Mensah
for stepping up for Meta-Four.

406
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,601
[Vic] Well, which one is it?

407
00:24:29,668 --> 00:24:33,738
[Book] No, no, I'm not gonna give props
when props are due.

408
00:24:33,805 --> 00:24:37,409
I'm not gonna come out here,
just lean one side or the other.

409
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:40,378
-No, I'm right down the middle.
-[Vic] Yeah, you're right down the middle.

410
00:24:40,445 --> 00:24:42,981
I'll remember that one.
I write that down in my book.

411
00:24:43,048 --> 00:24:46,318
Someone who was right down the middle
this past Sunday called it down the middle

412
00:24:46,384 --> 00:24:49,788
as Mensah into another cover
and a kickout. Referee noticing

413
00:24:49,855 --> 00:24:52,057
that Lexis King's shoulder
was just off the mat.

414
00:24:52,123 --> 00:24:54,626
A man who did call it down in the middle
was Trick Williams,

415
00:24:54,693 --> 00:24:56,428
who's gonna fight with Dunne
at the main event

416
00:24:56,495 --> 00:24:57,896
[Book] Referee trying to do his job,

417
00:24:57,963 --> 00:25:02,000
and Oro just went in there, took
a blatant cheap shot. I don't like that.

418
00:25:02,067 --> 00:25:05,904
[Vic] So now you don't like bending
the rules. This is what I'm talking about.

419
00:25:05,971 --> 00:25:08,640
Which side are you on?
Big right hand, though, by King.

420
00:25:08,707 --> 00:25:12,377
But one thing that we do need to talk
about is what business does Lexis King

421
00:25:12,444 --> 00:25:15,480
have even questioning Oro Mensah,
even questioning Meta-Four?

422
00:25:15,547 --> 00:25:17,382
[Book] It's not about Oro Mensah.

423
00:25:17,449 --> 00:25:21,820
How many times do I have to say it?
It's about the TV star.

424
00:25:21,887 --> 00:25:25,023
It's about the star of all television,
Lexis King.

425
00:25:25,090 --> 00:25:28,927
How many times have I been wrong?
How many times have I been wrong?

426
00:25:28,994 --> 00:25:32,464
[Vic] Nasty, gnarly landing.

427
00:25:32,531 --> 00:25:34,799
[Book]
You see what I'm saying right there?

428
00:25:34,866 --> 00:25:36,401
[shouts]

429
00:25:36,468 --> 00:25:40,405
[Vic] Referee checking out Oro Mensah,
and for good reason.

430
00:25:41,139 --> 00:25:43,775
How far is that from the top to the floor?

431
00:25:43,842 --> 00:25:47,712
[Book] That's so smart right there by
the star of all television to just step.

432
00:25:47,779 --> 00:25:52,517
[Vic] What television except NXT?
Name me another show.

433
00:25:52,584 --> 00:25:55,253
[Book]
Maybe shows that you haven't seen before.

434
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,957
-But he's on…
-[Vic] Into the cover and a kickout.

435
00:25:59,424 --> 00:26:03,061
Lexis King, who just likes to poke,
agitate others.

436
00:26:03,795 --> 00:26:06,164
Not great qualities to have.

437
00:26:06,231 --> 00:26:08,934
[Book] Look at the patience, man.
Look at the patience.

438
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:14,539
Taking his time, lowering the boom.
I like everything about this kid.

439
00:26:14,606 --> 00:26:17,342
[shouts from the crowd]

440
00:26:17,409 --> 00:26:21,046
[Vic] King talking a little bit of smack,
is self-centered as they come.

441
00:26:21,112 --> 00:26:23,848
Some have called him in the locker room
annoying as a gnat.

442
00:26:23,915 --> 00:26:29,955
Oh, what a vicious kick to the spine,
looking to crown Mensah.

443
00:26:30,021 --> 00:26:31,756
[Book] Wow. Drive by.

444
00:26:31,823 --> 00:26:34,859
That's a gnat for you right there.
You know what?

445
00:26:34,926 --> 00:26:37,896
You know what?
That's good for the ecosystem.

446
00:26:37,963 --> 00:26:40,465
Have you ever heard of the aquatic?

447
00:26:40,532 --> 00:26:41,600
[grunts]

448
00:26:41,666 --> 00:26:43,435
[Vic]
I'm not going into this debate with you.

449
00:26:43,501 --> 00:26:45,036
All of a sudden
you're a science professor?

450
00:26:45,103 --> 00:26:49,074
And now we're back in the matchup,
it's King swinging away on Oro Mensah.

451
00:26:49,140 --> 00:26:52,544
[crowd chatter]

452
00:26:54,245 --> 00:27:01,252
Your father should have burned to ashes.
Ashes, Oro. He should have burned.

453
00:27:01,419 --> 00:27:03,054
[Vic] What kind of… What was that?

454
00:27:03,121 --> 00:27:07,525
He wished his father burned?
What the hell is this?

455
00:27:07,592 --> 00:27:12,163
Mensah snapped. He's relentless. You
talked about the referee doing his job.

456
00:27:12,230 --> 00:27:15,800
He's trying to calm down Oro.
Put the main man right back in.

457
00:27:15,867 --> 00:27:20,138
Unleashing fury.
Unleashing brutal hell on Lexis King.

458
00:27:24,175 --> 00:27:27,278
Oro now just got taken down.
Wait a minute. King!

459
00:27:27,345 --> 00:27:30,782
No, no, no!
King just stole this damn match.

460
00:27:31,249 --> 00:27:33,084
[rock music playing]

461
00:27:33,151 --> 00:27:37,889
[announcer]
Here is your winner, Lexis King.

462
00:27:37,956 --> 00:27:42,260
[Vic] This man loves a great show. Oro
goes right after him, he's not done yet.

463
00:27:42,327 --> 00:27:44,696
Mensah's seeing red.

464
00:27:44,763 --> 00:27:46,831
He tossed you over the barricade.

465
00:27:46,898 --> 00:27:49,167
Kicks me in the face. That guy.

466
00:27:50,268 --> 00:27:52,971
You got some balls walking in here.

467
00:27:53,738 --> 00:27:55,640
I understand your frustrations.

468
00:27:55,707 --> 00:27:59,010
I know it's very difficult
for all of you, especially you, Stacks,

469
00:27:59,077 --> 00:28:03,314
to come to terms with the fact
that your boss was no match for The Ruler.

470
00:28:03,381 --> 00:28:07,686
Oh, please, you got lucky.
You wanted No mercy, okay.

471
00:28:07,752 --> 00:28:09,954
But The Don, he ain't done with you.

472
00:28:10,021 --> 00:28:13,158
And you win that title,
you're gonna lose real soon.

473
00:28:13,792 --> 00:28:15,994
Big words from such a small woman.

474
00:28:16,061 --> 00:28:20,899
You know, in many cultures,
the woman is meant to be seen, not heard.

475
00:28:20,965 --> 00:28:24,269
Okay, how about joking?
You wanna see some jokes?

476
00:28:24,335 --> 00:28:27,672
I got it.
Who the hell do you think you are?

477
00:28:27,739 --> 00:28:32,577
See, in my culture, you talk to a woman
like that, you get smacked in the mouth.

478
00:28:32,644 --> 00:28:34,279
Maybe…

479
00:28:34,345 --> 00:28:36,848
Maybe you want to do something about it.

480
00:28:36,915 --> 00:28:40,385
-Is that a challenge?
-I know you heard me.

481
00:28:40,452 --> 00:28:44,055
-Don…
-Stacks is gonna handle this tonight.

482
00:28:44,122 --> 00:28:46,991
[crowd chatter]

483
00:28:47,058 --> 00:28:49,060
Got it, Don.

484
00:28:51,596 --> 00:28:52,597
Don…

485
00:28:52,664 --> 00:28:56,167
Listen, I trust that the underboss
is gonna take care of business tonight.

486
00:28:56,234 --> 00:28:59,504
Nobody talks to you like that
and gets away with it.

487
00:29:00,605 --> 00:29:04,609
[Vic] Well, that interaction
just raised your eyebrows, Book.

488
00:29:04,676 --> 00:29:07,745
[rock music playing]

489
00:29:07,812 --> 00:29:08,813
[bell ringing]

490
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:12,484
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

491
00:29:12,550 --> 00:29:17,355
Introducing first, Tatum Paxley.

492
00:29:17,422 --> 00:29:21,860
[Vic] It's certainly been an interesting
48 hours for Tatum Paxley.

493
00:29:21,926 --> 00:29:24,129
Let's go back to No Mercy

494
00:29:24,195 --> 00:29:27,599
this past Sunday, it was after Wendy
Choo's matchup with Kelani Jordan

495
00:29:27,665 --> 00:29:32,704
for the Women's North American Title that
Paxley punished Choo, putting her to sleep

496
00:29:32,771 --> 00:29:37,976
in the center of the ring and then placing
that Wendy Choo-esque doll

497
00:29:38,042 --> 00:29:40,812
next to Wendy in Denver.

498
00:29:41,479 --> 00:29:48,486
Soon, Tatum Paxley is going to take on
a demon of a friend of Wendy Choo, next.

499
00:29:52,023 --> 00:29:56,060
Tavion comes back from Japan next week.
And I'm so curios to what he got…

500
00:29:56,127 --> 00:30:00,198
-[things breaking]
-[man shouting]

501
00:30:00,265 --> 00:30:06,371
Je'Von Evans costing the boys a shot
at the NXT Tag Team Championship.

502
00:30:06,437 --> 00:30:09,674
-I am going to end him.
-Hi, Joe. Hi, Joe.

503
00:30:09,741 --> 00:30:12,644
Before he gets the chance
for his first legal pint.

504
00:30:12,710 --> 00:30:14,345
Do you know what, Joe? Do it tonight.

505
00:30:14,412 --> 00:30:17,682
Hi, Joe.
Tonight, make all those little tentacles.

506
00:30:17,749 --> 00:30:21,152
They love it when he bounces
and flips in the air.

507
00:30:21,219 --> 00:30:24,556
I totally get that you're upset,
but Charles wants you

508
00:30:24,622 --> 00:30:28,793
to keep your voices down.
Miles has sensitive ears.

509
00:30:28,860 --> 00:30:31,429
And why would you want
to fight Je'Von again?

510
00:30:31,496 --> 00:30:35,266
He's like, really good and also
really cool. And even Logan Paul…

511
00:30:35,333 --> 00:30:36,568
Right!

512
00:30:36,634 --> 00:30:39,571
-Are you quite finished?
-Do you know what?

513
00:30:39,637 --> 00:30:42,140
See, after Je'Von,
we're coming for that cup.

514
00:30:42,207 --> 00:30:44,876
-That's yours.
-Oh, yeah? You want some of us?

515
00:30:44,943 --> 00:30:48,847
You think that you can get your name
on this cup? Well, Charles will literally…

516
00:30:48,913 --> 00:30:51,316
Hey, hey, guys, guys. She's new.

517
00:30:51,382 --> 00:30:55,453
You know how it is.
Thanks, fellas. Bye. Thanks.

518
00:30:56,087 --> 00:30:58,756
-What?
-Wren, calm down.

519
00:30:58,823 --> 00:31:01,092
You can't keep issuing challenges
to everybody.

520
00:31:01,159 --> 00:31:05,029
You need to hear a convincing sales pitch,
compelling idea.

521
00:31:05,096 --> 00:31:07,365
You're gonna take it in, think about it.

522
00:31:07,432 --> 00:31:11,703
And once that head of yours is clear,
then you make the decision.

523
00:31:12,303 --> 00:31:14,572
-Right?
-Got it.

524
00:31:15,807 --> 00:31:20,078
[Vic] Well, from one champion to another,
the prodigy has arrived.

525
00:31:20,144 --> 00:31:21,813
The NXT Women's Champion,

526
00:31:21,879 --> 00:31:27,852
Roxanne Perez, will address
the NXT Universe live here tonight.

527
00:31:27,919 --> 00:31:29,988
[rock music playing]

528
00:31:30,054 --> 00:31:33,057
-[crowd chatter]
-[speaker noise]

529
00:31:40,131 --> 00:31:43,134
[rock music playing]

530
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:55,346
[announcer]
Accompanied by Wendy Choo, Rosemary.

531
00:31:55,780 --> 00:31:58,416
[Vic] Once again,

532
00:31:58,483 --> 00:32:04,389
TNA wrestler Rosemary,
summoned by Wendy Choo.

533
00:32:04,822 --> 00:32:09,160
[Book] Yeah, Yeah. I got a chance to do
a little research on Rosemary.

534
00:32:09,227 --> 00:32:16,234
Four time TNA Tag Team Champion, one time
Knockout Champion. I gotta give her props.

535
00:32:16,734 --> 00:32:21,439
She's no flash in the pan,
here today, gone tomorrow.

536
00:32:22,006 --> 00:32:26,444
She's very, very dangerous.
Very experienced.

537
00:32:27,111 --> 00:32:32,450
-Oh, this is going to be good.
-[Vic] This gets really creepy as well.

538
00:32:32,517 --> 00:32:36,321
You see that Wendy Choo-doll,
which was left by Paxley.

539
00:32:36,387 --> 00:32:38,856
I mean, that would give
nightmares to anyone.

540
00:32:38,923 --> 00:32:43,061
-But maybe Wendy Choo kind of…
-[Book] If it was anybody else,

541
00:32:43,127 --> 00:32:47,765
if it was anybody else,
I would agree with you, Vic, but this is

542
00:32:47,832 --> 00:32:51,069
The Sleepy Psycho
we're talking about here.

543
00:32:51,135 --> 00:32:54,138
[shouts from the crowd]

544
00:32:58,242 --> 00:32:59,844
[Book] Wicked, man. Wicked.

545
00:32:59,911 --> 00:33:03,047
[Vic] Oh, I thought Tatum thought
they were about to play.

546
00:33:03,114 --> 00:33:06,150
Thought she had a friend.
Rosemary ended that real quick.

547
00:33:06,217 --> 00:33:08,219
[Book]
Exactly what I'm talking about, man.

548
00:33:08,286 --> 00:33:13,458
Tatum Paxley's gonna have to make sure
she's on point tonight. Stay on key.

549
00:33:13,524 --> 00:33:15,927
[Vic]
Tatum Paxley showed Choo what it was like

550
00:33:15,994 --> 00:33:18,930
to be clutched out
when she arrived in Denver.

551
00:33:18,996 --> 00:33:23,668
I mean, it looks like she's going to have
to go through Rosemary perhaps

552
00:33:23,735 --> 00:33:25,937
to get to Wendy Choo again.

553
00:33:26,004 --> 00:33:28,406
[Book] I mean, that might not…
My thing is this.

554
00:33:28,473 --> 00:33:30,308
I mean, Tatum Paxley and Wendy Choo,

555
00:33:30,375 --> 00:33:34,479
if they really just sit down
and have a cup of coffee, a cup of tea,

556
00:33:34,545 --> 00:33:37,749
-they would see they have a lot in common.
-[Vic] You think Wendy Choo

557
00:33:37,815 --> 00:33:40,651
looks like someone who wants a cup of tea
and a quiche breakfast?

558
00:33:40,718 --> 00:33:44,355
Take a look across the ring right now.
You're having breakfast with her?

559
00:33:44,422 --> 00:33:47,992
[Book] I just said they have a lot
in common at one point in time.

560
00:33:48,059 --> 00:33:51,796
I mean, twin demons of deception,
twin demons of evil.

561
00:33:51,863 --> 00:33:55,967
And I see a lot of same resemblance
in these two right here as well. Oh!

562
00:33:56,033 --> 00:34:00,104
[Vic] When you think of Wendy Choo and you
think of Rosemary, they are two demons.

563
00:34:00,171 --> 00:34:03,107
They just come from two different realms.

564
00:34:05,743 --> 00:34:08,913
And the evil thoughts
brewing on the outside.

565
00:34:08,980 --> 00:34:10,381
[Book] See the pep talk there?

566
00:34:10,448 --> 00:34:15,253
[Vic] Rosemary is a different breed.
A competitor loves, loves to see

567
00:34:15,319 --> 00:34:19,824
others suffer. Choo close to becoming
the Women's North American Champion.

568
00:34:19,891 --> 00:34:23,027
But congratulations to Kelani Jordan
for retaining.

569
00:34:23,528 --> 00:34:25,797
[Book]
Kelani Jordan showed me a whole lot,

570
00:34:25,863 --> 00:34:28,466
the altitude,
definitely she was dealing with that.

571
00:34:28,533 --> 00:34:33,137
But she showed prowess, she showed
her in-ring prowess, she showed…

572
00:34:33,204 --> 00:34:37,175
[Vic] Rosemary into the cover!
Paxley just got that left shoulder up.

573
00:34:37,241 --> 00:34:40,078
You talked about what happened
on the outside of the ring

574
00:34:40,144 --> 00:34:42,413
-is a vicious… Clothesline.
-[Book] Big shot.

575
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:47,285
And the conversation, it's scary to think
about the conversations that Wendy Choo

576
00:34:47,351 --> 00:34:50,254
and Rosemary have, the demonic dreams

577
00:34:50,321 --> 00:34:53,858
of true magically evil, gnarly intentions
of someone like Rosemary.

578
00:34:53,925 --> 00:34:55,860
[Book]
You took it right out of my mouth.

579
00:34:55,927 --> 00:34:59,430
As far as the gnarly intentions
of Wendy Choo and…

580
00:34:59,497 --> 00:35:03,367
Why is she doing this?
Why the big change in Wendy Choo?

581
00:35:03,434 --> 00:35:06,270
You definitely gonna have to answer
those questions sooner or later.

582
00:35:06,337 --> 00:35:08,840
[Vic] Like they say, some people
just love to watch the world burn.

583
00:35:08,906 --> 00:35:10,708
Nice drop kick though by Paxley.

584
00:35:10,775 --> 00:35:14,378
And is Paxley starting to find herself
maybe as a superstar?

585
00:35:14,445 --> 00:35:18,082
She's yet focused on Wendy Choo right now,
in this moment, focused on Rosemary,

586
00:35:18,149 --> 00:35:22,320
but not a title, not gold.
I mean, that is showing some growth.

587
00:35:22,386 --> 00:35:25,056
[Book] We're definitely
being enlightened on Tatum Paxley

588
00:35:25,123 --> 00:35:26,257
as far as how good she is.

589
00:35:26,324 --> 00:35:29,427
I got a chance to see that up close
in person just a few weeks ago.

590
00:35:29,494 --> 00:35:34,332
But Tatum Paxley is coming into her own,
actually showing how good she really is

591
00:35:34,398 --> 00:35:37,869
inside the squared circle.
Oh! Beautiful elbow.

592
00:35:37,935 --> 00:35:41,806
[Vic] Off that elbow drop cover
and a kickout by Rosemary.

593
00:35:42,273 --> 00:35:44,509
Rosemary showing some fight
in this matchup.

594
00:35:44,575 --> 00:35:48,579
Again, I'm just trying to see some sort
of expression on Wendy Choo,

595
00:35:48,646 --> 00:35:51,916
as she just staring a hole
through Tatum Paxley.

596
00:35:51,983 --> 00:35:54,385
Rosemary showcasing that strength.

597
00:35:54,452 --> 00:35:58,556
Could be looking for a fallaway slam!
And connected.

598
00:35:59,323 --> 00:36:03,161
Paxley right back up, right back in.
Got caught one more time!

599
00:36:03,227 --> 00:36:09,267
And Rosemary, again, continuing
to punish Paxley in front of Wendy Choo.

600
00:36:09,333 --> 00:36:12,537
Hook of the leg and another near fall
in this matchup.

601
00:36:12,603 --> 00:36:17,575
[Book] Precision perfect there by
Rosemary. Two big shots looking to land.

602
00:36:17,642 --> 00:36:22,213
One more big shot perhaps to finish
this thing. Here we go. Whoa!

603
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,916
[Vic] Couldn't land it though.
Paxley ducked and then

604
00:36:24,982 --> 00:36:29,520
face first off the right knee.
And now Paxley trying to follow up.

605
00:36:29,921 --> 00:36:34,025
Looking to connect,
Paxley into the cover, Choo's looking on.

606
00:36:34,091 --> 00:36:38,262
And Paxley picks up the win tonight.

607
00:36:38,763 --> 00:36:43,935
[announcer]
Here is your winner, Tatum Paxley.

608
00:36:44,001 --> 00:36:45,536
-[crowd cheering]
-[rock music playing]

609
00:36:45,603 --> 00:36:49,407
[Vic] More of that growth we talked about
for Tatum Paxley.

610
00:36:49,473 --> 00:36:51,008
[crowd chatter]

611
00:36:51,075 --> 00:36:56,214
[Vic] Who showcases
some high impact offense here tonight.

612
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:57,748
Picking up the victory.

613
00:36:57,815 --> 00:37:03,020
And now you start to think what could
be next for someone like Tatum Paxley.

614
00:37:03,087 --> 00:37:05,489
What could be on the horizon for some…

615
00:37:05,556 --> 00:37:07,158
[grunts]

616
00:37:07,225 --> 00:37:08,626
[Vic] Choo!

617
00:37:08,693 --> 00:37:12,196
[Book] Double chop. Double chop.

618
00:37:13,431 --> 00:37:16,133
[Vic] And Choo trying to get
a little payback on Paxley

619
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,969
for what happened in Denver,

620
00:37:18,035 --> 00:37:22,473
but turned around and then
just got speared by Rosemary.

621
00:37:23,541 --> 00:37:29,580
Oh, the numbers advantage
in this evil duo popping up.

622
00:37:30,214 --> 00:37:33,818
-It's Valkyria! Valkyria is back!
-[Book] What the…

623
00:37:33,884 --> 00:37:35,987
[crowd cheering]

624
00:37:36,053 --> 00:37:39,323
[Vic]
The former NXT Women's Champion is here.

625
00:37:40,725 --> 00:37:42,860
[thud]

626
00:37:46,163 --> 00:37:49,000
[Vic] Listen to the NXT Universe.

627
00:37:49,066 --> 00:37:51,769
-[crowd cheering]
-[rock music playing]

628
00:37:58,843 --> 00:38:03,614
[Vic] Look at the expression
on the face of Tatum Paxley.

629
00:38:04,315 --> 00:38:11,322
Paxley, Valkyria, standing
side by side once more in NXT.

630
00:38:13,858 --> 00:38:16,927
Lyra Valkyria
with a shocking return to NXT.

631
00:38:16,994 --> 00:38:19,130
But here with a man on a mission,
Pete Dunne.

632
00:38:19,196 --> 00:38:22,233
Your issues with Trick Williams started
when you told Trick to figure it out.

633
00:38:22,299 --> 00:38:23,567
He's going to figure it out.

634
00:38:23,634 --> 00:38:26,971
He's going to figure out
that actions have consequences.

635
00:38:27,038 --> 00:38:29,707
This ain't no music video.
This is real life.

636
00:38:29,774 --> 00:38:33,210
And tonight he's going to learn
the lesson of a lifetime.

637
00:38:33,277 --> 00:38:34,445
And after that…

638
00:38:34,512 --> 00:38:37,515

[woman] That's enough! That's enough!

640
00:38:56,534 --> 00:39:00,805
Let's do it now, get to the ring!
Get to the ring now!

641
00:39:00,871 --> 00:39:04,342
[man] Get him out of here!

642
00:39:04,408 --> 00:39:06,677
That's enough!

643
00:39:06,744 --> 00:39:10,781
Ava, things are falling apart
with you as GM, huh?

651

Next week is a big week for wrestling.
It's WWE Week on the USA Network,

652
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:54,725
which means that NXT, Raw,
and SmackDown will all air on USA.

653
00:39:55,126 --> 00:39:59,163
But I have something that's going
to make it an even better week.

654
00:39:59,230 --> 00:40:03,100
I have something that's going
to make it a historic week.

655
00:40:03,167 --> 00:40:05,269
I spoke to Ava and it's official.

656
00:40:05,336 --> 00:40:10,541
For the first time ever, I'll be defending
my TNA Knockouts Championship

657
00:40:10,608 --> 00:40:13,711
in an open challenge match on NXT.

658
00:40:14,245 --> 00:40:18,716
I want to continue testing myself against
the best. So if there's a woman there

659
00:40:18,783 --> 00:40:24,622
who thinks that she can fill my shoes,
I am more than happy to give her a shot.

660
00:40:25,022 --> 00:40:27,458
See you soon, WWE Universe.

661
00:40:27,525 --> 00:40:29,026
[rock music playing]

662
00:40:29,093 --> 00:40:31,796
[Vic] Huge news from Jordynne Grace.

663
00:40:33,230 --> 00:40:34,231
[bell ringing]

664
00:40:34,298 --> 00:40:37,168
[announcer] The follow contest
is scheduled for one fall.

665
00:40:37,234 --> 00:40:42,506
Introducing first,
"The Bruiserweight" Pete Dunne.

666
00:40:42,573 --> 00:40:45,109
[Vic] But Book, don't adjust the sets,
because we had huge news

667
00:40:45,176 --> 00:40:48,379
just before the break, our general
manager, Ava, said, "I don't care,

668
00:40:48,446 --> 00:40:50,581
it's the main event."
Urgency in her voice.

669
00:40:50,648 --> 00:40:53,951
She has to have this settled tonight.
She sent this match out.

670
00:40:54,018 --> 00:40:57,188
Now, Trick Williams charging to the ring.
Charging Trick.

671
00:40:57,254 --> 00:41:02,293
-All hell is breaking loose.
-[Book] It's a fight. I love it.

672
00:41:02,359 --> 00:41:06,630
[Vic] These two have been at each other
since the start of the night,

673
00:41:06,697 --> 00:41:10,100
and you didn't even have a chance to give
a cliff notes version of your stick.

674
00:41:10,167 --> 00:41:12,636
Trick came out here
looking to whoop some ass.

675
00:41:12,703 --> 00:41:14,405
[Book]
There's a time and a place for that.

676
00:41:14,471 --> 00:41:18,275
This right here, this is business.
This is personal right here. I love it.

677
00:41:18,342 --> 00:41:19,877
[Vic] You can hear it in our voices,

678
00:41:19,944 --> 00:41:25,516
and you can't blame Trick for bringing
the fight to Pete Dunne right now.

679
00:41:25,583 --> 00:41:29,253
Dunne attacked Trick Sunday,
adding fuel to this rivalry.

680
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:34,191
You know, Trick has been thinking
about this for the last 48 hours.

681
00:41:34,258 --> 00:41:35,392
[Book] Not just that, Vic.

682
00:41:35,459 --> 00:41:39,129
Trick's thinking about getting back
to the top of the food chain, getting back

683
00:41:39,196 --> 00:41:42,933
to being in control here and then exceed
with that championship around his waist.

684
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:46,470
-Pete Dunne's just a fly in the ointment.
-[Vic] But here's the thing.

685
00:41:46,537 --> 00:41:49,907
Trick committed this earlier,
and we finally

686
00:41:49,974 --> 00:41:54,078
get this one started.
Think about this, Trick admitted this,

687
00:41:54,144 --> 00:41:58,048
he's reacting, he's not thinking.
Can he channel those emotions?

688
00:41:58,115 --> 00:41:59,850
I mean, it could be the downfall.

689
00:41:59,917 --> 00:42:03,254
[Book] No, no. The thing is, you need
to be thinking about reacting.

690
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,390
You don't want to start thinking too much
of the business like this.

691
00:42:06,457 --> 00:42:09,460
That truly could be
Trick Williams' downfall.

692
00:42:09,994 --> 00:42:15,299
[Vic] Oh, there's of course, the arrogant,
egotistical NXT champion looking on.

693
00:42:15,366 --> 00:42:16,534
I want to bring this up.

694
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:21,538
What do you think of Ethan Page telling
Ava, our general manager, before we went

695
00:42:21,605 --> 00:42:25,476
to commercial,
that she has lost control of this brand?

696
00:42:25,542 --> 00:42:27,945
[Book] Something called
stepping out of line, Vic.

697
00:42:28,012 --> 00:42:29,680
You don't want to boss the boss.

698
00:42:29,747 --> 00:42:32,917
That's my advice to Ethan Page.

699
00:42:32,983 --> 00:42:35,819
[Vic]
Well, how dangerous can Dunne become?

700
00:42:35,886 --> 00:42:39,523
He's re found the attitude
that made him a dominant champion.

701
00:42:39,590 --> 00:42:42,493
He's done with nicknames.
He's done being a follower.

702
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:46,830
He certainly has picked his spot
numerous times to attack Trick.

703
00:42:46,897 --> 00:42:50,668
And now looking to break Trick's left arm.

704
00:42:50,734 --> 00:42:54,305
For Pete Dunne, he's also thinking about
that Intercontinental Championship Fatal

705
00:42:54,371 --> 00:42:58,776
4-Way on Monday to face Bron Breakker
maybe in the back of his head,

706
00:42:58,842 --> 00:43:02,279
but he is fully focused on destroying
Trick Williams here tonight.

707
00:43:02,346 --> 00:43:05,950
[Book] No, no. Pete Dunne's just
got caught with a big shot right there.

708
00:43:06,016 --> 00:43:07,117
Here we go, here we go.

709
00:43:07,184 --> 00:43:08,786
[Vic]
Into the cover, Dunne able to kickout.

710
00:43:08,852 --> 00:43:12,623
[Book] He's very dangerous and
he's still trying to get that bad taste

711
00:43:12,690 --> 00:43:15,292
out of his mouth.
You feel me? You feel me?

712
00:43:15,359 --> 00:43:17,928
-[Vic] How would you feel about it?
-[Book] Exactly my point.

713
00:43:17,995 --> 00:43:20,397
He has a lot of internal pain

714
00:43:20,464 --> 00:43:24,001
that he's looking to take out
on one Trick Williams tonight.

715
00:43:24,068 --> 00:43:26,804
[Vic] On the flip side too,
did you hear Tricks diss track?

716
00:43:26,870 --> 00:43:32,876
The realist is back, but The Bruiserweight
just dropped the former NXT Champion.

717
00:43:33,944 --> 00:43:37,915
[Book] Well, you do not want
to underestimate Pete Dunne, Vic.

718
00:43:37,982 --> 00:43:40,050
He's on a mission right now.

719
00:43:40,117 --> 00:43:41,185
[grunts]

720
00:43:41,251 --> 00:43:45,856
[Vic] And look at Dunne again,
just trying to punish Trick Williams.

721
00:43:45,923 --> 00:43:49,159
-Pulling back, bending the spine.
-[Book] Adding insult.

722
00:43:49,226 --> 00:43:51,695
[Vic] Anything he can do,
referee right there and Dunne

723
00:43:51,762 --> 00:43:53,297
I don't think really cares right now.

724
00:43:53,364 --> 00:43:59,436
He just wants to hurt. He wants to
send a message to Trick Williams.

725
00:43:59,503 --> 00:44:02,706
You know, again,
we got to remember this… Oh!

726
00:44:02,773 --> 00:44:05,376
It was Pete Dunne who said,
"Trick, figure it out."

727
00:44:05,442 --> 00:44:08,312
That was the advice he gave Trick
several weeks ago.

728
00:44:08,379 --> 00:44:11,348
[Book]
Just talked about it as well, it was Trick

729
00:44:11,415 --> 00:44:14,952
just going in there,
not really thinking about it.

730
00:44:15,019 --> 00:44:19,456
Running into something big. Pete
Dunne, you don't want to do that, man.

731
00:44:19,523 --> 00:44:22,226
[Vic] But look at Trick. Trick!

732
00:44:22,292 --> 00:44:24,595
[crowd chatter and shouts]

733
00:44:24,662 --> 00:44:28,599
[Vic] We talked about those emotions,
Book. They're boiling out of Williams.

734
00:44:28,665 --> 00:44:31,268
[Book] I don't like it.
I don't like the looks of it right now.

735
00:44:31,335 --> 00:44:34,605
Being over anxious and just ran into
a big shot right there by Pete Dunne.

736
00:44:34,672 --> 00:44:36,006
Set him up perfectly.

737
00:44:36,974 --> 00:44:39,476
[Vic] Charging in, big right hand,

738
00:44:39,543 --> 00:44:43,180
buckling the knees and maybe breaking
the heart of The Bruiserweight.

739
00:44:43,247 --> 00:44:45,616
[Book] What an uppercut, Vic.

740
00:44:46,116 --> 00:44:48,552
[Vic] Charging back in comes Trick.

741
00:44:49,453 --> 00:44:51,255
Williams taking down Dunne.

742
00:44:51,321 --> 00:44:56,860
And I do not like when they start
to roll over this way, Booker.

743
00:44:56,927 --> 00:44:59,930
[crowd chanting]

744
00:45:01,098 --> 00:45:05,736
[Vic] Here the NXT Universe said…
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

745
00:45:05,803 --> 00:45:07,805
[Book] He's not gonna do that.

746
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,875
-[smack]
-[Vic] Oh!

747
00:45:13,243 --> 00:45:15,245
And oh!

748
00:45:15,312 --> 00:45:17,981
[grunts]

749
00:45:18,048 --> 00:45:22,219
[Vic] And look at Dunne looking
right in the eyes of Trick Williams.

750
00:45:22,286 --> 00:45:24,021
[Book] Trick got caught up right there.

751
00:45:24,088 --> 00:45:27,691
That's an old trick of the trade
right there by Pete Dunne.

752
00:45:27,758 --> 00:45:30,294
[Vic] Pete said, "Figure it out." Book,

753
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:35,199
It doesn't look like Trick has, cause
Pete Dunne is picking up where he left off

754
00:45:35,265 --> 00:45:40,504
48 hours ago in Denver. And I don't
know about this, Booker. Oh my!

755
00:45:41,638 --> 00:45:43,640
[grunts]

756
00:45:43,707 --> 00:45:48,011
[Vic] Can Trick Williams even continue?

757
00:45:52,216 --> 00:45:54,051
[Vic] Back live on NXT,

758
00:45:54,118 --> 00:45:59,490
and Pete Dunne has been in control this
matchup with Trick Williams and really,

759
00:45:59,556 --> 00:46:04,561
the turning point of this matchup happened
right before the commercial break. Bam!

760
00:46:04,628 --> 00:46:09,566
Just stomping right on Trick as he
was laid across the steel steps.

761
00:46:09,633 --> 00:46:12,436
Booker, you had a great advantage
of it right here in front of you.

762
00:46:12,503 --> 00:46:17,341
No, no, Trick was out actually, Vic,
for a few seconds,

763
00:46:17,407 --> 00:46:22,579
trying to get his equilibrium back
right now, but he's still lackadaisical.

764
00:46:22,646 --> 00:46:27,684
[Vic] Hey, Trick. This could be the final
outburst of energy from Trick Williams,

765
00:46:27,751 --> 00:46:30,888
because he has been
on the back foot all night.

766
00:46:30,954 --> 00:46:33,857
[Book] Trying to suck it up.
Trying to suck it up, baby.

767
00:46:34,858 --> 00:46:39,630
[Vic] If you heard Trick earlier, he said
Pete's been capping with all his yapping.

768
00:46:39,696 --> 00:46:43,700
And right now it's Williams looking
to make things happen here on NXT!

769
00:46:43,767 --> 00:46:45,769
Taking down one man flap jack.

770
00:46:45,836 --> 00:46:48,639
[Book] Man, Trick Williams
has been under a lot of pressure.

771
00:46:48,705 --> 00:46:52,409
I mean, Iron Survivor, I mean,
North American Champion, NXT Champion.

772
00:46:52,476 --> 00:46:54,144
-That Meteor…
-[Vic] Look at his eyes.

773
00:46:54,211 --> 00:46:57,314
[Book] Everybody wants a piece
of this man. You got to love it.

774
00:46:57,381 --> 00:47:00,751
[Vic] Look at his eyes as well.
There we're looking in the eyes of…

775
00:47:00,817 --> 00:47:05,389
Who of course defends the NXT Titles
October 1st, our highly anticipated debut

776
00:47:05,455 --> 00:47:08,892
on the CW Network
Allstate arena in Chicago.

777
00:47:08,959 --> 00:47:11,862
He's got a close eye on this matchup.

778
00:47:12,262 --> 00:47:14,965
As Dunne now, sight set.

779
00:47:15,032 --> 00:47:20,204
-Got caught, got hoisted, got planted.
-[Book] Double clutch, double clutch.

780
00:47:20,270 --> 00:47:23,473
-[Vic] Cover, count!
-[Book] Oh, man.

781
00:47:23,540 --> 00:47:28,545
[Vic] Trick not able to bookend the
matchup here tonight against Pete Dunne.

782
00:47:28,612 --> 00:47:30,547
[Book] Trying to keep the pressure on
though, Vic.

783
00:47:30,614 --> 00:47:31,782
[Vic] He's got to, right?

784
00:47:31,848 --> 00:47:34,518
This is the best Trick has looked
since the start of this matchup.

785
00:47:34,585 --> 00:47:37,120
[Book] Don't think about Dunne.
You don't want to give him any space.

786
00:47:37,187 --> 00:47:39,790
You got to keep him real close
to the body, man.

787
00:47:39,857 --> 00:47:41,258
[Vic] Nice German suplex.

788
00:47:41,325 --> 00:47:46,530
Dunne back up, right down on the left hand
and then right into the face of Williams.

789
00:47:46,597 --> 00:47:49,333
And it was Williams who had
that outburst up front of energy.

790
00:47:49,399 --> 00:47:52,803
And it was Dunne who was able to weather
that emotional storm from Trick,

791
00:47:52,870 --> 00:47:56,573
as Trick right back to his feet,
swinging with a right.

792
00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:58,642
[shouts from the crowd]

793
00:47:58,709 --> 00:48:03,113
[Vic] These two look like they have been
at each other for 40 straight minutes.

794
00:48:03,180 --> 00:48:06,817
They've been fighting
since the start of the night, these two.

795
00:48:06,884 --> 00:48:10,888
It's been hard to keep them separated.
This was supposed to be our main event.

796
00:48:10,954 --> 00:48:15,692
Ava had no choice but to tell them to go
now, because all hell was breaking loose.

797
00:48:15,759 --> 00:48:18,362
Chaos was breaking out.
Powerbomb was delivered.

798
00:48:18,428 --> 00:48:21,899
And can Pete Dunne
pin Trick Williams tonight?

799
00:48:21,965 --> 00:48:26,069
[Book] What a motivator.
Pete Dunne said, "Figure it out, Trick."

800
00:48:26,136 --> 00:48:28,038
You better try to figure it out tonight.

801
00:48:28,105 --> 00:48:30,841
[Vic] Now it's Dunne
looking for that bitter end,

802
00:48:30,908 --> 00:48:33,844
he was able to connect with this
in Denver right in front of us.

803
00:48:33,911 --> 00:48:35,612
And now it's turning around.

804
00:48:35,679 --> 00:48:39,917
And a nice counter.
A nice reversal from Trick Williams.

805
00:48:39,983 --> 00:48:42,319
[applause and chatter from the crowd]

806
00:48:42,386 --> 00:48:46,223
-[Vic] A little payback.
-[Book] Payback is a mother.

807
00:48:46,823 --> 00:48:50,127
[Vic]
And this volatile situation playing out!

808
00:48:50,193 --> 00:48:55,666
And now, oh, it might be playing out
a little bit too close for comfort.

809
00:48:55,732 --> 00:48:58,502
[chatter and shouts from the crowd]

810
00:48:58,568 --> 00:49:01,471
[Vic] Dunne to our left, and oh!

811
00:49:03,740 --> 00:49:05,475
Oh, my.

812
00:49:05,542 --> 00:49:08,545
[crowd chatter]

813
00:49:11,848 --> 00:49:13,417
[Vic] Hook.

814
00:49:13,483 --> 00:49:17,721
-It's getting real close.
-[Book] It's about to get busy, son.

815
00:49:19,222 --> 00:49:21,558
[Vic] Referee continuing his count.

816
00:49:21,959 --> 00:49:24,294
Oh, no, no, no. Trick!

817
00:49:24,361 --> 00:49:26,430
[crowd shouting]

818
00:49:26,496 --> 00:49:28,598
[Vic] Oh!

819
00:49:28,665 --> 00:49:34,071
Dunne bending back to digits! The official
right now continuing the count!

820
00:49:35,038 --> 00:49:37,441
The referee… Oh!

821
00:49:38,675 --> 00:49:39,743
The referee…

822
00:49:39,810 --> 00:49:42,813
[bell ringing]

823
00:49:42,879 --> 00:49:45,882
[crowd chatter]

824
00:49:46,516 --> 00:49:50,454
[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,
this match has officially been ruled

825
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,623
a double count out.

826
00:49:53,690 --> 00:49:56,927
[Vic] Look, we were watching
the officials count.

827
00:49:56,993 --> 00:49:59,997
[crowd booing]

828
00:50:02,099 --> 00:50:04,067
[crowd chanting]

829
00:50:04,134 --> 00:50:08,805
[Vic] These two, Booker,
wanted to destroy each other tonight.

830
00:50:08,872 --> 00:50:11,675
They did it right here in front of us.

831
00:50:12,075 --> 00:50:16,013
They have been fighting all over
since the start of the night.

832
00:50:16,079 --> 00:50:19,583
In the locker room,
on the set, in the back.

833
00:50:19,649 --> 00:50:22,986
[Book] Oh, yes! Oh!

834
00:50:23,053 --> 00:50:24,187
[Vic] Williams!

835
00:50:25,222 --> 00:50:29,493
This is that emotion we talked about.
We're going to need more security.

836
00:50:30,994 --> 00:50:34,865
[Book] It ain't over, Vic. It ain't over.

837
00:50:35,298 --> 00:50:37,934
[Vic] You say that again, Booker.

838
00:50:38,001 --> 00:50:41,338
[shouts and grunts]

839
00:50:41,405 --> 00:50:43,106
[man] Get back, get back!

840
00:50:43,173 --> 00:50:46,376
[Vic]
What is our general manager going to do?

841
00:50:47,477 --> 00:50:51,048
-We need more! We need more!
-[Book] Yes!

842
00:50:51,114 --> 00:50:54,117
[shouts and grunts]

843
00:50:56,653 --> 00:51:01,558
[Vic] We said embrace the chaos.
These two took it literally.

844
00:51:07,097 --> 00:51:10,534
[Ridge] Chase University
welcomed me in at my lowest point.

845
00:51:11,334 --> 00:51:16,706
Restored my confidence,
gave me a sense of belonging.

846
00:51:17,441 --> 00:51:21,278
So why destroy Mr. Chase?

847
00:51:21,344 --> 00:51:23,814
-[crowd cheering]
-[soft music playing]

848
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:25,749
[crowd] Oh!

849
00:51:26,316 --> 00:51:28,251
[Ridge] Put him in the hospital.

850
00:51:28,852 --> 00:51:31,288
Because they failed.

851
00:51:32,322 --> 00:51:33,824
We were champions.

852
00:51:34,991 --> 00:51:40,230
But then Chase U did
what Chase U does. Win the big one.

853
00:51:41,431 --> 00:51:43,567
But can't keep it.

854
00:51:44,067 --> 00:51:49,206
I brought them all back to prominence.
Look at what everything I did for Chase U.

855
00:51:49,272 --> 00:51:50,674
Chase U!

856
00:51:50,740 --> 00:51:53,710
[Ridge] New look, new classroom.

857
00:51:54,311 --> 00:51:58,181
You think Duke Hudson
would have done what I did?

858
00:51:58,615 --> 00:52:03,153
All he did
was criticize every move I made.

859
00:52:03,653 --> 00:52:09,025
Duke Hudson is a smug, arrogant ***.

860
00:52:09,092 --> 00:52:14,865
And Riley, he's no different. They got
their big title match at NXT Heatwave.

861
00:52:14,931 --> 00:52:18,001
[crowd cheering]

862
00:52:18,068 --> 00:52:22,539
They accepted my help in getting there,
but when it came time to go…

863
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,610
Sorry, Ridge, stay home.

864
00:52:27,077 --> 00:52:30,213
And they failed without me.

865
00:52:31,581 --> 00:52:35,986
I finally became a champion,

866
00:52:36,052 --> 00:52:39,723
and it got ripped away
because of mediocrity.

867
00:52:40,524 --> 00:52:43,460
So now, NXT,

868
00:52:43,527 --> 00:52:49,432
you're going to get the man
that I fought so hard not to be.

869
00:52:49,833 --> 00:52:53,904
The step by step destruction of Chase U

870
00:52:53,970 --> 00:52:56,573
begins next week.

871
00:52:57,240 --> 00:53:00,877
And there I'm going to love

872
00:53:01,478 --> 00:53:04,381
every second of it.

873
00:53:04,447 --> 00:53:07,951
[music fading out]

874
00:53:08,018 --> 00:53:10,020
[smash]

875
00:53:10,086 --> 00:53:12,989
[soft music playing]

876
00:53:13,056 --> 00:53:16,226
[Vic ] My heart still breaks for Chase
University after the events of this

877
00:53:16,293 --> 00:53:19,896
weekend, but coming up in moments
after what we saw earlier tonight,

878
00:53:19,963 --> 00:53:23,967
Je'Von Evans is going to go one-on-one
one more time with Joe Coffey.

879
00:53:24,034 --> 00:53:27,571
This encounter takes place next,
live on NXT.

880
00:53:27,637 --> 00:53:30,106
[rock music playing]

881
00:53:32,542 --> 00:53:35,545
[crowd chatter]

882
00:53:38,348 --> 00:53:43,753
Brooks, there's something
I want to tell you, man.

883
00:53:44,888 --> 00:53:48,925
When Edris and Malik viciously
attacked me, you were the first one there.

884
00:53:49,392 --> 00:53:52,028
It's… It's like you rescued me.

885
00:53:52,095 --> 00:53:54,864
And then what you did for me
when you smashed Edris' shoulder,

886
00:53:54,931 --> 00:53:57,100
then you beat Malik, it just…

887
00:53:58,068 --> 00:54:00,570
I just wanted to say something to you
that I don't think anybody

888
00:54:00,637 --> 00:54:03,340
have said to you
in a really long time, man.

889
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:05,675
Thank you.

890
00:54:06,076 --> 00:54:08,745
Nah, I mean it, Brooks. Look at me, bro.

891
00:54:09,279 --> 00:54:10,814
Thank you.

892
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,783
This whole time here,
I was thinking I was the guy saving you,

893
00:54:13,850 --> 00:54:17,454
and it turns out
that you're the guy saving me.

894
00:54:18,855 --> 00:54:21,224
I'm committed to this, Brooks.
You have my word.

895
00:54:21,291 --> 00:54:23,660
I'm not gonna leave you
like everybody else has.

896
00:54:23,727 --> 00:54:27,163
Why does everybody think
you're manipulating me?

897
00:54:28,865 --> 00:54:32,035
You know that I don't care
what anybody else thinks or believes.

898
00:54:32,102 --> 00:54:36,139
I care what you think, Brooks.
So what do you believe?

899
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:39,075
Think about it.

900
00:54:42,279 --> 00:54:44,514
Thank you, man.

901
00:54:50,954 --> 00:54:54,624
Man, that's psychological
manipulation right there.

902
00:54:55,458 --> 00:54:58,862
-What are you talking about?
-Psychological manipulation.

903
00:54:58,928 --> 00:55:01,798
Spears is gaslighting you, bro.

904
00:55:03,733 --> 00:55:06,736
[soft rock music playing]

905
00:55:10,373 --> 00:55:11,374
[bell ringing]

906
00:55:11,441 --> 00:55:14,878
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

907
00:55:14,944 --> 00:55:21,951
Introducing first, representing Gallus,
Joe Coffey.

908
00:55:22,152 --> 00:55:27,457
[Vic] Coffey is going to be in a foul mood
after Mark and Wolfgang failed to become

909
00:55:27,524 --> 00:55:31,094
the number one contenders
for the NXT Tag Team Titles,

910
00:55:31,161 --> 00:55:33,830
as we kicked off NXT tonight.
It was Joe Coffey,

911
00:55:33,897 --> 00:55:37,701
he was trying to get
an advantage for Gallus,

912
00:55:37,767 --> 00:55:41,438
but here's the man who stopped him.

913
00:55:41,504 --> 00:55:43,373
[Book] I love this kid.

914
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:46,443
[hip hop music playing]

915
00:55:55,251 --> 00:56:01,024
[announcer]
And his opponent, Je'Von Evans.

916
00:56:01,091 --> 00:56:03,560
[Vic] I don't know
if it's because Dunne and Trick

917
00:56:03,626 --> 00:56:07,030
went through our announce desk,
our wires could be a little damaged.

918
00:56:07,097 --> 00:56:09,933
-What did you say?
-[Book] I like this kid, Je'Von Evans.

919
00:56:09,999 --> 00:56:13,636
-[Vic] But more than Lexis King?
-[bell ringing]

920
00:56:13,703 --> 00:56:16,106
[Vic]
Big takedown by Evans. It's all right.

921
00:56:16,172 --> 00:56:18,742
-We'll get you off your horse.
-[Book] I like this kid, but…

922
00:56:18,808 --> 00:56:20,910
-[Vic] You like Everybody.
-[Book] He needs to learn

923
00:56:20,977 --> 00:56:25,749
how to pick his poison. You don't want
to run into a fight with the Gallus boys.

924
00:56:25,815 --> 00:56:27,617
[Vic] He got some payback earlier,

925
00:56:27,684 --> 00:56:30,854
but he wants a different outcome
in this rematch. And look at Evans,

926
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:32,622
the young OG landing right on his feet.

927
00:56:32,689 --> 00:56:34,891
Ducks the clothesline,
picking up some speed,

928
00:56:34,958 --> 00:56:39,062
-goes up and then taking down Joe Coffey.
-[Book] He's got all the moves, man.

929
00:56:39,129 --> 00:56:41,931
He's got a lot of talent. But like I said,

930
00:56:41,998 --> 00:56:45,001
-it's against the odds tonight.
-[Vic] So the way of Joe's interference

931
00:56:45,068 --> 00:56:48,738
as I mentioned in that Triple Threat match
earlier tonight, Evans…

932
00:56:48,805 --> 00:56:53,309
He started to run! Holy…

933
00:56:53,376 --> 00:56:55,612
Caught me by surprise.

934
00:56:55,678 --> 00:56:58,782
Action getting a little bit too close
to us, Booker, tonight.

935
00:56:58,848 --> 00:57:01,284
I don't know if my candy dish
could take much more.

936
00:57:01,351 --> 00:57:04,654
I don't know if Gallus could take
much more tonight, or Joe Coffey,

937
00:57:04,721 --> 00:57:07,991
because look at Evans,
coming in possessed here tonight.

938
00:57:08,057 --> 00:57:11,995
[Book] Yeah, but he's clutching
those ribs already early in this matchup.

939
00:57:12,061 --> 00:57:14,564
-Oh, damn! See what I'm saying?
-[Vic] Got caught.

940
00:57:14,631 --> 00:57:18,268
-[Book] See what I'm saying, Vic?
-[Vic] And now it's Joe Coffey.

941
00:57:18,334 --> 00:57:22,172
That Vader bomb-esque maneuver out of
the corner into the cover and a kickout.

942
00:57:22,238 --> 00:57:26,543
Evan's issues with Gallus run deeper
by each passing weekend. Right there,

943
00:57:26,609 --> 00:57:29,446
both men almost landing in our lap.
But here's the thing.

944
00:57:29,512 --> 00:57:32,282
You probably could have caught him.
I wouldn't be getting back up.

945
00:57:32,348 --> 00:57:34,017
You'd be doing the rest
of the show by yourself.

946
00:57:34,083 --> 00:57:35,752
So you're lucky
they didn't jump over that.

947
00:57:35,819 --> 00:57:37,787
[Book] I've never caught anybody.

948
00:57:37,854 --> 00:57:41,891
[Vic] There's a lot of people who can
co-sign that, as this matchup continuing.

949
00:57:41,958 --> 00:57:46,129
-And much like we saw earlier with Tatum…
-[Book] He's bouncy!

950
00:57:46,196 --> 00:57:48,932
[Vic] Is this a new side of Evans,
a more serious side?

951
00:57:48,998 --> 00:57:52,902
[Book] One thing about this kid Evans,
he can fly, he's got impeccable timing.

952
00:57:52,969 --> 00:57:56,339
He's got a playbook.
He can do everything, he can fight.

953
00:57:56,406 --> 00:57:59,843
He's got all the elements fit,
all the elements to be great.

954
00:57:59,909 --> 00:58:01,744
[Vic] This is someone
who's not just happy to be here.

955
00:58:01,811 --> 00:58:05,081
He's main event at a premium live event.
He's sick of hearing about his age.

956
00:58:05,148 --> 00:58:07,951
He's tired of being talk down to.

957
00:58:08,017 --> 00:58:12,055
The referee's distracted.
Yeah, the numbers game picking up, and oh!

958
00:58:12,121 --> 00:58:15,658
-[Book] What the hell is he doing?
-[Vic] That's Cedric Alexander.

959
00:58:15,725 --> 00:58:19,429
-Alexander out here to even the odds.
-Who are you trying to be? Huh?

960
00:58:19,495 --> 00:58:22,632
-I didn't do anything. Look at me.
-You want some?

961
00:58:22,699 --> 00:58:25,301
Come on. Come on.

962
00:58:25,368 --> 00:58:28,404
[Vic] Evans flying with ease.

963
00:58:29,138 --> 00:58:30,840
[Book] The greatest of ease.

964
00:58:30,907 --> 00:58:33,576
[Vic] And this is what I was getting
ready to say for Je'Von Evans,

965
00:58:33,643 --> 00:58:38,281
which is why I think it was a smart idea
when he arrived. He started to lean on

966
00:58:38,348 --> 00:58:42,418
so many individuals,
as Evans to the tippy top.

967
00:58:42,485 --> 00:58:45,088
[Book] God, man. Could that be it?

968
00:58:45,154 --> 00:58:51,027
[Vic] And Evans gets massive payback here
tonight and then hightails it out of here.

969
00:58:51,094 --> 00:58:57,267
[announcer]
Here is your winner, Je'Von Evans.

970
00:58:57,333 --> 00:58:59,602
-[crowd cheering]
-[hip hop music playing]

971
00:58:59,669 --> 00:59:02,672
[Vic] Cedric Alexander evening the odds.

972
00:59:02,739 --> 00:59:05,575
Evans gets that payback
he was looking for.

973
00:59:05,642 --> 00:59:08,578
And right here wiping out everyone.

974
00:59:08,645 --> 00:59:12,782
You said it earlier,
that boy getting bouncy tonight.

975
00:59:12,849 --> 00:59:18,254
The young OG
picking up a statement victory

976
00:59:18,321 --> 00:59:20,490
in his young career.

977
00:59:20,557 --> 00:59:24,861
Getting one back on Joe Coffey.
And I mean, when you look at

978
00:59:24,928 --> 00:59:30,233
how the way the night has been going,
this has not been Gallus' night.

979
00:59:30,300 --> 00:59:32,735
[hip hop music playing]

980
00:59:32,802 --> 00:59:36,406
Oh, Lyra, my sweet dove,
I knew that you would forgive me.

981
00:59:36,472 --> 00:59:40,977
And I knew that what we had was just
as special to you as it was to me.

982
00:59:41,044 --> 00:59:44,814
And nobody has your back on Raw like I do.

983
00:59:44,881 --> 00:59:46,749
Whoa, whoa. Okay, let's not go back there.

984
00:59:46,816 --> 00:59:50,587
Okay? Remember, the issue was you
didn't let me have any other friends.

985
00:59:50,653 --> 00:59:55,625
And when I said the you needed
to make friends I didn't mean make…

986
00:59:57,126 --> 01:00:02,565
Never mind. Okay. The point is, I know
we didn't leave things on the best terms,

987
01:00:03,299 --> 01:00:06,235
and I said I'd never come back, but…

988
01:00:07,837 --> 01:00:11,507
-I just couldn't keep my eye off you.
-Oh, Lyra.

989
01:00:11,574 --> 01:00:15,078
-It has been so lonely around here.
-Hey.

990
01:00:16,045 --> 01:00:17,580
Chin up.

991
01:00:17,647 --> 01:00:19,816
You've got backup now.

992
01:00:20,350 --> 01:00:25,221
And I think I'd rather be fighting
with you than against you.

993
01:00:26,189 --> 01:00:31,761
So let's go show these weird girls
just how weird you really are.

994
01:00:31,828 --> 01:00:36,165
Yes, yes, yes.
Lyra, first, can we maybe like…

995
01:00:38,167 --> 01:00:40,903
Okay, Hook me, Tatum!

996
01:00:40,970 --> 01:00:42,538
[both screaming]

997
01:00:42,605 --> 01:00:46,576
[Vic] There it is, Book. A true friendship
can get through anything.

998
01:00:46,643 --> 01:00:51,514
Not like you and me. Never gonna end.
Bring it. You and me, friends.

999
01:00:51,581 --> 01:00:54,584
[tension music playing]

1000
01:00:54,651 --> 01:00:55,685
[bell ringing]

1001
01:00:55,752 --> 01:00:58,855
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1002
01:00:58,921 --> 01:01:05,928
Introducing first,
he is the NXT North American Champion,

1003
01:01:06,396 --> 01:01:09,866
Oba Femi.

1004
01:01:09,932 --> 01:01:14,971
[Vic] When we talk about ending things,
or never ending things,

1005
01:01:15,038 --> 01:01:19,208
who can end the reign of Oba?

1006
01:01:19,709 --> 01:01:26,716
Who can stop our massive North American
Champion? The Don? Well, he tried Sunday.

1007
01:01:27,183 --> 01:01:30,720
The underboss tries tonight,

1008
01:01:30,787 --> 01:01:35,992
and it's going down live, next on NXT.

1009
01:01:36,859 --> 01:01:40,830
Ava, a completely chaotic night
between Pete Dunne and Trick Williams.

1010
01:01:40,897 --> 01:01:43,566
Brawling all over the building,
not solving anything.

1011
01:01:43,633 --> 01:01:46,302
How do you plan on settling things
between these two superstars?

1012
01:01:46,369 --> 01:01:49,005
I mean, look, Sarah,
these two certainly haven't made it easy.

1013
01:01:49,072 --> 01:01:52,375
And I know the ref was just doing his job,
but I think I speak for everyone

1014
01:01:52,442 --> 01:01:54,343
when I say there needs to be a winner.

1015
01:01:54,410 --> 01:02:00,383
So, I did some thinking and I decided next
week, Last Man Standing match.

1016
01:02:00,450 --> 01:02:03,820
And whoever wins move on
to face Ethan Page

1017
01:02:03,886 --> 01:02:06,222
for the NXT Championship on October 1st,

1018
01:02:06,289 --> 01:02:09,692
-when NXT debuts on the CW.
-Ava, thanks so much for your time.

1019
01:02:09,759 --> 01:02:11,761
I know you have a lot on your plate.

1020
01:02:11,828 --> 01:02:15,565
Next week, a Last Man Standing match.
Vic, Book, back to you.

1021
01:02:15,631 --> 01:02:19,969
[Vic] Thanks, Sarah.
But Book, can I get an SDQQ?

1022
01:02:20,036 --> 01:02:23,873
[Book] Oh, choocky, ducky, quack, quack.

1023
01:02:23,940 --> 01:02:26,943
[soft music playing]

1024
01:02:28,578 --> 01:02:31,681
[upbeat music playing]

1025
01:02:31,748 --> 01:02:37,787
[announcer] And his opponent,
representing The D'Angelo Family,

1026
01:02:37,854 --> 01:02:42,558
Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo.

1027
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:47,763
[Vic] Take a look at what we saw earlier.

1028
01:02:47,830 --> 01:02:50,800
I mean, the underboss
is standing up for The Family.

1029
01:02:50,867 --> 01:02:54,670
The underboss is standing up to the dime,
but he's standing up to somebody,

1030
01:02:54,737 --> 01:02:56,606
and Oba Femi. Let me think about this.

1031
01:02:56,672 --> 01:02:59,475
Who's the greatest North American Champion
of all time, in your opinion?

1032
01:02:59,542 --> 01:03:01,043
[Book] You know, Wes Lee.

1033
01:03:01,110 --> 01:03:06,282
But I tell you, this man, this man
Oba Femi, is making a great, great case.

1034
01:03:06,349 --> 01:03:09,852
You know what I don't like about this?
Stacks had zero time,

1035
01:03:09,919 --> 01:03:12,121
zero time to prepare for this match.

1036
01:03:12,188 --> 01:03:15,091
Preparation is the only luck
you're ever going to have.

1037
01:03:15,158 --> 01:03:18,194
[Vic] I'm glad you brought that up,
because I want to talk about the history

1038
01:03:18,261 --> 01:03:20,062
of that title and go back to Wes Lee,

1039
01:03:20,129 --> 01:03:22,932
because Wesley is the only man
to hold the title longer.

1040
01:03:22,999 --> 01:03:28,104
Oba Femi, the second longest reigning
North American Champion of all time.

1041
01:03:28,171 --> 01:03:33,776
-And truly, Book, who can stop him?
-[Book] You know, I wonder.

1042
01:03:33,843 --> 01:03:39,348
Like I said, I wonder how far can
Oba Femi go? He's a true champion, Vic.

1043
01:03:39,415 --> 01:03:43,052
He has defended that title
several times already.

1044
01:03:43,119 --> 01:03:44,954
Oh, baby!

1045
01:03:45,021 --> 01:03:48,758
[Vic] And looking to continue his
dominance over The Family here tonight.

1046
01:03:48,825 --> 01:03:54,397
Look, and also The Don stood up for Rizzo
earlier. She was fired up, was she not?

1047
01:03:54,463 --> 01:03:57,567
[Book] She might have been too fired up.
Let me tell you something.

1048
01:03:57,633 --> 01:04:02,872
This man, Oba Femi,
no bread, no water, just beans.

1049
01:04:02,939 --> 01:04:06,175
-Oh yes.
-[Vic] Off that clothesline.

1050
01:04:06,242 --> 01:04:12,181
Oba barking out at The Don because he has
just been tossing around the underboss.

1051
01:04:12,248 --> 01:04:13,983
And to your point, moments ago,

1052
01:04:14,050 --> 01:04:16,586
Stacks seemed a little unaware
of this plan tonight.

1053
01:04:16,652 --> 01:04:18,421
He's never one to doubt The Don.

1054
01:04:18,487 --> 01:04:21,324
His loyalty has never been questioned.
He's loyal to a fault.

1055
01:04:21,390 --> 01:04:26,229
But he is in there right now and certainly
looks overpowered and over matched.

1056
01:04:26,295 --> 01:04:27,296
Another cover.

1057
01:04:27,363 --> 01:04:31,334
[Book] He's in there with The Ruler, man.
Undeniable power.

1058
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:35,605
I'm gonna tell you, this man, Oba Femi,
he's truly, truly…

1059
01:04:35,671 --> 01:04:39,275
He's a prolific champion.
Give him his prop. Give him his prop.

1060
01:04:39,342 --> 01:04:42,445
[Vic] I just did. I said he was the second
longest reigning North American Champion

1061
01:04:42,511 --> 01:04:45,915
-of all time.
-[Book] I said power, right? Power.

1062
01:04:45,982 --> 01:04:47,350
I love it, man.

1063
01:04:47,416 --> 01:04:51,287
[Vic] What more can you actually say about
Oba Femi that hasn't been said already?

1064
01:04:51,354 --> 01:04:54,991
Truthfully, Oba Femi has everything.
He's done everything.

1065
01:04:55,057 --> 01:04:59,729
He's unconquerable, he's unbeatable,
he's dominant. He overpowers everyone.

1066
01:04:59,795 --> 01:05:01,697
And Stacks now. Oh, wait a minute.

1067
01:05:01,764 --> 01:05:05,034
Stacks trying to fight back
in this matchup. Big drop kick.

1068
01:05:05,101 --> 01:05:08,671
But Oba Femi still hasn't gone
all the way off his feet.

1069
01:05:08,738 --> 01:05:12,341
[Book] I think Stacks is going to have to
look for those little small mistakes,

1070
01:05:12,408 --> 01:05:14,310
Oba may making a matchup like this.

1071
01:05:14,377 --> 01:05:19,849
But that's not it. That's not it.
Look at the eyes.

1072
01:05:19,915 --> 01:05:24,253
[Vic] It was The Don who said
he trusts the underboss to handle

1073
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:28,157
family business. And he certainly
seems a little conflicted.

1074
01:05:28,224 --> 01:05:30,860
[Book] No, no, no.
He's concerned right now, Vic.

1075
01:05:30,926 --> 01:05:34,397
[Vic] I would be concerned too.
What weaknesses does Oba Femi have?

1076
01:05:34,463 --> 01:05:35,731
We talked about the positives.

1077
01:05:35,798 --> 01:05:38,834
-Give me a weakness. Does he have one?
-[Book] The thing is,

1078
01:05:38,901 --> 01:05:40,436
we haven't seen any thus far.

1079
01:05:40,503 --> 01:05:43,673
Oba Femi seems to find a way to win
every time.

1080
01:05:43,739 --> 01:05:47,109
No matter what is his strength,
no matter what is his stamina,

1081
01:05:47,176 --> 01:05:49,145
his in-ring prowess, he does it.

1082
01:05:49,211 --> 01:05:51,847
[Vic] I don't know
if our camera crew get a shot,

1083
01:05:51,914 --> 01:05:57,887
but the back of Stacks is just welting up,
the lower back of Stacks Lorenzo

1084
01:05:57,953 --> 01:06:01,090
is bruising right now
from the power display

1085
01:06:01,157 --> 01:06:06,062
and the relentless offense by Oba. And he
just bounced the legs off the top rope.

1086
01:06:06,128 --> 01:06:07,430
What's that feel like, Book?

1087
01:06:07,496 --> 01:06:10,566
[Book] I've never had anything like that
done to me before.

1088
01:06:10,633 --> 01:06:14,904
But right now, you can tell Oba Femi
is trying to hurt Stacks.

1089
01:06:14,971 --> 01:06:18,307
He's trying to send a message. Oh, yeah!

1090
01:06:18,374 --> 01:06:22,378
[Vic] Staring a hole through The Don
is Oba Femi.

1091
01:06:22,445 --> 01:06:26,015
Femi, who fears no man.
And honestly, why would he?

1092
01:06:26,415 --> 01:06:29,719
[Book]
You know, Femi gave The Don… He said…

1093
01:06:29,785 --> 01:06:33,656
But you got to know your place.
You're dealing with the Buddha.

1094
01:06:33,723 --> 01:06:37,760
[Vic] It was an uneasy tension
around us right now, Booker,

1095
01:06:37,827 --> 01:06:40,830
because this is almost getting
uncomfortable to watch for Stacks.

1096
01:06:40,896 --> 01:06:44,166
He's got to figure out something
and navigate his way around the ring,

1097
01:06:44,233 --> 01:06:46,168
navigate his way around the mountain
that is Oba.

1098
01:06:46,235 --> 01:06:48,671
Ducks the clothesline,
but so much taken out of him.

1099
01:06:48,738 --> 01:06:49,905
Quick bounce back to his feet.

1100
01:06:49,972 --> 01:06:52,408
-[Book] Stacks is just trying to…
-[Vic] …injury to maybe his knee.

1101
01:06:52,475 --> 01:06:55,945
[Book] He's trying to figure it out
right now. Obstacles, obstacles.

1102
01:06:56,011 --> 01:06:59,081
[Vic] Might be a little bit too late,
but again, the loyalty to The Don,

1103
01:06:59,148 --> 01:07:00,983
not wanting to let down his family.

1104
01:07:01,050 --> 01:07:05,321
Fighting for Luca, fighting for Rizzo,
fighting for Tony D'Angelo.

1105
01:07:05,388 --> 01:07:10,993
Fighting for The Family. And Oba Femi
got dropped finally in this matchup.

1106
01:07:11,060 --> 01:07:15,131
This is the moment for Stacks.
The Family rallying around the underboss.

1107
01:07:15,197 --> 01:07:17,733
[Book] I've talked about it, Vic.
Sometimes you got to go over,

1108
01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:20,970
around, under. Sometimes you got to go
straight through that obstacle.

1109
01:07:21,037 --> 01:07:22,638
That's what Stacks tried to do.

1110
01:07:22,705 --> 01:07:25,307
[Vic] Can Stacks be the one
to conquer the unconquerable?

1111
01:07:25,374 --> 01:07:29,545
Stacks able to get back to his feet, turn
around, jolt in that knee, and then almost

1112
01:07:29,612 --> 01:07:32,748
got ran through and declared,
the only reason he's up

1113
01:07:32,815 --> 01:07:35,851
is because of the turnbuckle,
and he's not up anymore.

1114
01:07:35,918 --> 01:07:38,487
[Book] God, man. You see this man Oba?

1115
01:07:38,554 --> 01:07:41,524
He has several gears, man.
And when he's switched,

1116
01:07:41,590 --> 01:07:45,194
you better watch it.
Here we go. Oh, my God.

1117
01:07:45,594 --> 01:07:48,197
[Vic] And Oba Femi, just like that,

1118
01:07:48,264 --> 01:07:53,736
staring at The Don
as he puts down the underboss.

1119
01:07:54,336 --> 01:08:00,643
[announcer] Here is your winner,
the NXT North American Champion,

1120
01:08:00,709 --> 01:08:03,078
Oba Femi.

1121
01:08:03,145 --> 01:08:06,048
[Vic] Quite the fall from grace
for the underboss.

1122
01:08:06,115 --> 01:08:10,119
[Book] Like my mama said, Vic,
get some, want some.

1123
01:08:10,186 --> 01:08:15,091
Your ass better be big enough
and bad enough to take some.

1124
01:08:15,491 --> 01:08:20,896
[Vic]
Oba Femi continuing to dominate in NXT.

1125
01:08:20,963 --> 01:08:23,532
-[crowd cheering]
-[rock music playing]

1126
01:08:23,599 --> 01:08:25,501
-What was your favorite part?
-Giulia.

1127
01:08:25,568 --> 01:08:29,171
-I was gonna say that.
-My mind was blown.

1128
01:08:29,238 --> 01:08:32,241
-Wait, how's Edris doing?
-Uh-uh.

1129
01:08:32,308 --> 01:08:34,543
I heard that he had surgery
on his shoulder after what

1130
01:08:34,610 --> 01:08:36,745
-Brooks Jensen did to him.
-And I feel awful.

1131
01:08:36,812 --> 01:08:40,449
Not to mention, Malik hasn't talked to me
since Brooks beat him last week.

1132
01:08:40,516 --> 01:08:43,919
-I don't know what I'm gonna do.
-Brinley,

1133
01:08:43,986 --> 01:08:49,725
I am so sorry to hear about your boy Edris
and his shoulder. But "adonisly",

1134
01:08:49,792 --> 01:08:53,963
if you need a shoulder to cry on,
I'm right here for you, baby.

1135
01:08:54,029 --> 01:08:56,866
-Ashante…
-Don't take anything from that guy.

1136
01:08:56,932 --> 01:09:01,470
-Is this your new tactic, Ashante?
-Oh, yeah, that's our sign. Let's go.

1137
01:09:04,106 --> 01:09:06,909
Hey, look, everyone, it's DJ Platonic.

1138
01:09:06,976 --> 01:09:10,980
Look, just cause you ain't got no game,
don't mean you can mess with mine.

1139
01:09:11,046 --> 01:09:14,683
So let me handle my work
before you get this work.

1140
01:09:18,654 --> 01:09:21,657
[rock music playing]

1141
01:09:46,115 --> 01:09:47,116
[bell ringing]

1142
01:09:47,183 --> 01:09:49,752
[announcer] The following contest
is scheduled for one fall.

1143
01:09:49,818 --> 01:09:56,825
Introducing first, representing
Fatal Influence, Jazmyn Nyx.

1144
01:09:57,326 --> 01:10:03,465
[Vic] There was an interaction, an
altercation, to start the night of chaos.

1145
01:10:03,532 --> 01:10:08,837
It led to this matchup happened
between Nyx and Jaida Parker.

1146
01:10:10,072 --> 01:10:13,809
Maybe not necessarily the person
that you want to run your mouth to,

1147
01:10:13,876 --> 01:10:17,146
but Jaida Parker never wanted
to run away from a fight.

1148
01:10:17,213 --> 01:10:22,284
Parker, Nyx, go one-on-one on NXT next.

1149
01:10:23,919 --> 01:10:25,921
[music fading out]

1150
01:10:28,123 --> 01:10:31,860
Look, Wren, this cup is valid,
but you know what it says?

1151
01:10:31,927 --> 01:10:36,999
You find the guy's name right there.
You know, one day, one day.

1152
01:10:37,066 --> 01:10:39,668
Well, what makes you think
you deserve an opportunity?

1153
01:10:39,735 --> 01:10:43,706
What makes me think?
Hear me out. Look, number one,

1154
01:10:43,772 --> 01:10:47,810
I went pretty deep in my Speed
tournament a couple weeks ago.

1155
01:10:47,876 --> 01:10:51,413
Number two, I main evented
Heatwave, banger match.

1156
01:10:51,480 --> 01:10:55,351
And number three,
I just spun the block on Joe Coffey.

1157
01:10:55,417 --> 01:10:57,219
Those are very compelling arguments.

1158
01:10:57,286 --> 01:10:59,588
-Yeah, yeah.
-Do you have any more?

1159
01:10:59,655 --> 01:11:03,626
Wren, you're cool and all, but it's
starting to sound like a job interview.

1160
01:11:03,692 --> 01:11:08,564
You're asking a lot of questions.
And I ain't really had a job before, so…

1161
01:11:08,631 --> 01:11:12,801
Well, I don't typically do this, but I do
think you deserve a Heritage Cup match.

1162
01:11:12,868 --> 01:11:14,770
-Really? Next week?
-Next week.

1163
01:11:14,837 --> 01:11:17,506
Oh, say less. Appreciate you.

1164
01:11:17,573 --> 01:11:19,742
Ava! Ava!

1165
01:11:19,808 --> 01:11:22,278
-Charles.
-What was all that about then?

1166
01:11:22,344 --> 01:11:26,282
I gave Je'Von a cup match next week,
so get ready. You're in a cup match.

1167
01:11:26,348 --> 01:11:29,251
-You did what?
-Why are you mad?

1168
01:11:29,318 --> 01:11:31,654
I did exactly what you told me to do.
This is you.

1169
01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:32,721
What did I say? Huh?

1170
01:11:32,788 --> 01:11:38,394
You told me to figure out why they think
they deserve, hear their sales pitch,

1171
01:11:38,460 --> 01:11:43,732
and then give it a second and let it
sink in before deciding. And I did.

1172
01:11:43,799 --> 01:11:46,068
And I think he does.

1173
01:11:47,970 --> 01:11:51,040
Nothing's official here, right?
You haven't spoken to Ava about this?

1174
01:11:51,106 --> 01:11:55,477
I mean, I haven't,
but Je'Von just went to go tell her.

1175
01:11:55,544 --> 01:11:57,513
[grunts]

1176
01:11:57,579 --> 01:12:02,885
Miles! Miles! I guess you just stood there
and did nothing, did you?

1177
01:12:02,951 --> 01:12:04,953
Huh?

1178
01:12:05,354 --> 01:12:08,991
-What happened?
-Je'Von Evans thinks I'm cool.

1179
01:12:09,058 --> 01:12:10,826
[soft music playing]

1180
01:12:10,893 --> 01:12:16,065
[Vic] What costly decision was possibly
just made by Wren Sinclair?

1181
01:12:16,131 --> 01:12:18,867
[Book] Money moves, man.

1182
01:12:18,934 --> 01:12:21,937
[upbeat music playing]

1183
01:12:23,172 --> 01:12:28,344
[announcer] Making her way
to the ring, representing OTM,

1184
01:12:28,811 --> 01:12:31,680
Jaida Parker.

1185
01:12:31,747 --> 01:12:35,017
[Vic] Had no issues putting
Fatal Influence on blast earlier.

1186
01:12:35,084 --> 01:12:39,188
Good for her. And you can see
the ribs heavily taped on Jaida Parker.

1187
01:12:39,254 --> 01:12:41,690
She didn't go into her championship
matchup this past Sunday

1188
01:12:41,757 --> 01:12:44,693
No mercy 100 %. Certainly wasn't 100 %

1189
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:49,331
after taking multiple pop rox, including
one through the barricade to our left.

1190
01:12:49,398 --> 01:12:54,670
But I give all the props in the world to
Jaida Parker after Sunday's match against

1191
01:12:54,737 --> 01:12:57,740
Roxanne, who we will still hear from,
by the way, later on tonight.

1192
01:12:57,806 --> 01:13:00,509
[Book]
Big props. First shot at the title.

1193
01:13:00,576 --> 01:13:04,480
Jaida Parker showed
championship qualities.

1194
01:13:04,546 --> 01:13:07,649
She's going to get there.
She's going to get there one day.

1195
01:13:07,716 --> 01:13:09,585
[Vic] I want to think about this too.

1196
01:13:09,651 --> 01:13:11,820
How about what we heard earlier
from our general manager?

1197
01:13:11,887 --> 01:13:15,691
A number one contenders match next week
for the NXT Championship.

1198
01:13:15,758 --> 01:13:20,396
Last Man Standing.
Williams, Dunne, they laid out,

1199
01:13:20,462 --> 01:13:22,931
they crashed through our table
right here in front of us.

1200
01:13:22,998 --> 01:13:26,502
[Book] Ava say the people want to see it,
so we're gonna give it to them.

1201
01:13:26,568 --> 01:13:30,005
-That's what I love about NXT.
-[Vic] We focus in on here and now.

1202
01:13:30,072 --> 01:13:31,540
Do you agree with Jacy Jayne,

1203
01:13:31,607 --> 01:13:35,477
who called Parker a mess? Which really
started the whole back and forth

1204
01:13:35,544 --> 01:13:38,447
earlier tonight that led
to this confrontation, led to this match.

1205
01:13:38,514 --> 01:13:43,185
[Book] I mean, coming off a loss to me,
sometimes you are a little bit shaken up.

1206
01:13:43,252 --> 01:13:46,555
You could call it a mess.
You can say that. Oh!

1207
01:13:46,622 --> 01:13:49,725
[Vic] I don't necessarily know if I would
agree, because you just talked about

1208
01:13:49,792 --> 01:13:52,161
overcoming a lot of obstacles
for Jaida Parker.

1209
01:13:52,227 --> 01:13:55,230
What she's done this year,
how she showed up and showed out

1210
01:13:55,297 --> 01:13:58,467
in her first championship match.
But she is not 100 %.

1211
01:13:58,534 --> 01:14:03,071
Into the cover and a kickout. And it's
almost like every time Parker moves,

1212
01:14:03,138 --> 01:14:04,940
you almost see
she's in frustration right now.

1213
01:14:05,007 --> 01:14:09,545
I mean, a rib injury, you talked about
it on Sunday. It's not easy to get over.

1214
01:14:09,611 --> 01:14:12,381
[Book] No. Like I said, with the
cartilage, as well as she's in there

1215
01:14:12,447 --> 01:14:15,551
with truly the best in Roxanne Perez.

1216
01:14:15,617 --> 01:14:18,387
And going toe-to-toe
tells me a whole lot about…

1217
01:14:18,454 --> 01:14:22,357
[Vic] Trying to run some interference,
and that opens it up for Nyx.

1218
01:14:22,424 --> 01:14:25,027
[Book] Look at the N-Y-X. Oh, yes.

1219
01:14:25,093 --> 01:14:30,833
[Vic] You think about the point of
the boot just went square into the ribs

1220
01:14:30,899 --> 01:14:35,537
of Jaida Parker, and Jacy and Fallon
who are considering themselves leaders.

1221
01:14:35,604 --> 01:14:37,606
I'm certain that they've told Jazmyn Nyx

1222
01:14:37,673 --> 01:14:41,977
use that soccer experience
from West Virginia and take it to Jazmyn.

1223
01:14:42,044 --> 01:14:46,915
[Book] I'm looking at the advancement
of Jazmyn Nyx in just a few weeks

1224
01:14:46,982 --> 01:14:52,321
with the pro as well as the rockstar,
giving her that expert tool.

1225
01:14:52,387 --> 01:14:57,960
Oh, beautiful, baby. You gotta love it.
The N-Y-X.

1226
01:14:59,194 --> 01:15:02,130
[Vic] Jacy and Fallon, you're just
loving yourself right now, huh?

1227
01:15:02,197 --> 01:15:06,168
You are just having a good old time
over here watching this matchup.

1228
01:15:06,235 --> 01:15:08,136
Let's see if you'll give truth about this.

1229
01:15:08,203 --> 01:15:10,706
Another cover hook of the leg
and a kickout by Parker.

1230
01:15:10,772 --> 01:15:13,942
Is Nyx riding on the coattails in of her
partners with everything you just said?

1231
01:15:14,009 --> 01:15:15,744
-[Book] Yes, she is.
-[Vic] And you like that?

1232
01:15:15,811 --> 01:15:19,147
-[Book] No, no, look. When I came in…
-[Vic] Those are Jaida's words.

1233
01:15:19,214 --> 01:15:22,384
I came here riding the coattails of one.
God rest your soul.

1234
01:15:22,451 --> 01:15:25,888
But I was in the main event,
my first pay-per-view, Vic.

1235
01:15:25,954 --> 01:15:29,258
Sometimes you got to ride a few coattails.

1236
01:15:29,958 --> 01:15:31,193
Ah!

1237
01:15:31,260 --> 01:15:35,697
[Vic] Jazmyn Nyx now trying to ride
those coattails to a victory here tonight.

1238
01:15:35,764 --> 01:15:39,735
But look at Parker
trying to fight with all her might.

1239
01:15:39,801 --> 01:15:44,273
Just trying to break this hold,
because those ribs so heavily damaged.

1240
01:15:44,339 --> 01:15:47,409
You got to wonder where she's at,
how hard it is to breathe.

1241
01:15:47,476 --> 01:15:49,311
If you can't breathe, you can't fight.

1242
01:15:49,378 --> 01:15:54,116
[Book] And right now Jazmyn Nyx got
that lock in right now trying to squeeze

1243
01:15:54,182 --> 01:15:56,885
the diaphragm. Oh, whoa, wait a minute.

1244
01:15:56,952 --> 01:16:00,088
[Vic] Overpowering Nyx is Parker.

1245
01:16:00,155 --> 01:16:02,457
Nyx, who is also talking
a little bit of trash.

1246
01:16:02,524 --> 01:16:06,995
Oh! Has come in with a plan,
though, in this matchup.

1247
01:16:07,863 --> 01:16:11,266
Talk about it maybe being a tough task
for Jazmyn Nyx.

1248
01:16:11,333 --> 01:16:16,138
But right now it's Parker who's
proving her toughness in this matchup.

1249
01:16:16,204 --> 01:16:19,241
[Book] That's Ms. Parker to you, Vic.
Here we go.

1250
01:16:19,308 --> 01:16:24,413
[Vic] She has a little bit of a worry
on her face. It's Jaida Parker. Oh!

1251
01:16:25,280 --> 01:16:28,016
Has been very vocal

1252
01:16:28,083 --> 01:16:35,090
since she arrived here in NXT. Bam!
Big body slam. After that loss on Sunday,

1253
01:16:35,190 --> 01:16:39,594
she went online and said, "Never fear
failure. It's the recipe for success."

1254
01:16:39,661 --> 01:16:44,132
She knows one day she'll get another
opportunity and she will one day be

1255
01:16:44,199 --> 01:16:47,035
-a champion here in NXT.
-[Book] I believe in that 100 %.

1256
01:16:47,102 --> 01:16:51,406
Like I said, in her first title shot
she went out and proved a big point

1257
01:16:51,473 --> 01:16:56,778
-here that she belongs. She belongs here.
-[Vic] That wasn't her blowing you a kiss.

1258
01:16:56,845 --> 01:17:00,649
[Book] Oh, baby! High step, high step.

1259
01:17:00,716 --> 01:17:03,285
Grab the tigers right there, baby.

1260
01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:07,723
[Vic] Jaida Parker, one more look. Oh!

1261
01:17:07,789 --> 01:17:10,792
[crowd cheering]

1262
01:17:11,893 --> 01:17:14,997
[Vic] Jaida Parker just took a quick
second to glance over to her left,

1263
01:17:15,063 --> 01:17:17,165
because she knows
she's not just in there with Nyx.

1264
01:17:17,232 --> 01:17:19,334
She's in there with all
of Fatal Influence. Oh!

1265
01:17:19,401 --> 01:17:23,138
Inside cradle by Nyx in the center
of the ring. Disable to kickout.

1266
01:17:23,205 --> 01:17:26,875
There wasn't a lot on that kickout,
Booker. Oh, there's a trip.

1267
01:17:26,942 --> 01:17:28,777
-[Book] I impressed with Jazmyn.
-[Vic] Picking it up.

1268
01:17:28,844 --> 01:17:30,345
Swinging wildly was Nyx.

1269
01:17:30,412 --> 01:17:34,116
Parker now coming right back in,
picking up an extra head of steam,

1270
01:17:34,182 --> 01:17:38,620
with that hypnotic hip check
into the cover.

1271
01:17:38,687 --> 01:17:43,158
Jaida Parker victorious tonight.

1272
01:17:43,225 --> 01:17:44,292
[Book] Indeed…

1273
01:17:44,359 --> 01:17:47,663
[announcer]
Here is your winner, Jaida…

1274
01:17:47,729 --> 01:17:49,831
[Vic] Hey!

1275
01:17:50,465 --> 01:17:53,835
Oh, you knew this one was coming.
Fatal Influence.

1276
01:17:53,902 --> 01:17:56,705
[crowd booing]

1277
01:17:56,772 --> 01:18:00,142
[Vic] Trying to do their best. Look at
Jaida Parker. She's not gonna stop.

1278
01:18:00,208 --> 01:18:03,879
She never met a fight she didn't
want to take and didn't like.

1279
01:18:04,746 --> 01:18:07,582
-Taking out Fallon already took out…
-[Booker] Oh!

1280
01:18:07,649 --> 01:18:11,820
[Vic] Well, there's that rolling encore
from Jacy Jayne.

1281
01:18:11,887 --> 01:18:14,890
Fallon picking up the scraps.

1282
01:18:14,956 --> 01:18:16,958
[grunts]

1283
01:18:17,025 --> 01:18:18,760
[Vic] Oh, I bet they just love…

1284
01:18:18,827 --> 01:18:21,930
I'm sure they're gonna have
a good old time after this.

1285
01:18:21,997 --> 01:18:27,069
-[Book] Oh! Man.
-[Vic] Nyx's kick between the eyes.

1286
01:18:28,503 --> 01:18:33,709
And if this is the influence
that this trio is going to have,

1287
01:18:33,775 --> 01:18:38,480
I mean, it could be a fatal blow
to the Women's Division.

1288
01:18:38,547 --> 01:18:41,550
[rock music playing]

1289
01:18:42,150 --> 01:18:45,287
[Vic] We've been talking about chaos
all night long, this happened

1290
01:18:45,353 --> 01:18:49,157
legitimately right in front of us
in the matchup earlier tonight

1291
01:18:49,224 --> 01:18:51,426
between Dunne and Trick Williams.

1292
01:18:51,493 --> 01:18:55,931
They've been at each other
all night long. It started 48 hours ago.

1293
01:18:55,997 --> 01:18:58,066
Big decision that was made
by the general manager.

1294
01:18:58,133 --> 01:19:02,370
And it's going to happen next week,
part of WWE Week on USA.

1295
01:19:02,437 --> 01:19:06,742
Last Man Standing. Who can
incapacitate their opponents?

1296
01:19:06,808 --> 01:19:10,412
They can't get to their feet by
the count of ten. The winner will become

1297
01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:15,584
the number one contender to Ethan Page
in the NXT Championship.

1298
01:19:15,650 --> 01:19:18,153
[rock music playing]

1299
01:19:20,689 --> 01:19:24,793
[Vic] But there you see
the Women's Champion, Roxanne Perez,

1300
01:19:24,860 --> 01:19:26,128
who has a lot on her mind.

1301
01:19:26,194 --> 01:19:30,665
She addresses us all live
when we return to NXT.

1302
01:19:30,732 --> 01:19:32,033
[hip hop music playing]

1303
01:19:33,135 --> 01:19:35,437
[women chattering]

1304
01:19:35,504 --> 01:19:39,207
Kelani had another successful title
defense. I'm so proud of you, champ.

1305
01:19:39,274 --> 01:19:42,711
-Do you really think she's gonna come out?
-I mean, that girl has so much aura.

1306
01:19:42,777 --> 01:19:44,479
It's definitely a match
everybody wants to see.

1307
01:19:44,546 --> 01:19:49,618
Is the newbie gonna come out?
OMG, I'm just so excited.

1308
01:19:50,418 --> 01:19:51,720
Go away.

1309
01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:54,856
If you're looking for aura,
look no further,

1310
01:19:54,923 --> 01:19:58,460
because Fatal Influence has all the aura.

1311
01:19:58,860 --> 01:20:01,263
It looks like y'all are afraid
of some new competition.

1312
01:20:01,329 --> 01:20:04,966
Oh, no, we're not afraid of girls
who choke on PLE like you or, well…

1313
01:20:05,033 --> 01:20:07,969
That's what they want,
but that's what we're not gonna do.

1314
01:20:08,036 --> 01:20:11,173
I'm not gonna sit here and let you three
poison the locker room.

1315
01:20:11,239 --> 01:20:14,476
We have the best Women's Division
because of what we do in the ring.

1316
01:20:14,543 --> 01:20:16,545
Not your petty little drama.

1317
01:20:16,945 --> 01:20:19,781
Even as champ,
she has so much to learn.

1318
01:20:19,848 --> 01:20:20,916
So much.

1319
01:20:20,982 --> 01:20:24,519
Count your days as champ,
because they're numbered.

1320
01:20:26,655 --> 01:20:28,757
[hip hop music playing]

1321
01:20:28,824 --> 01:20:32,227
[Vic] I want to talk about this, because
I said it was heartbreaking earlier from

1322
01:20:32,294 --> 01:20:35,764
the NXT Tag Team Championship match
this past week at No Mercy. There you see

1323
01:20:35,831 --> 01:20:39,968
Duke Hudson, the MVP who said he is still
processing everything that happened.

1324
01:20:40,035 --> 01:20:44,639
He talked about Mr. Chase, he talked about
Ridge Holland. But look at the bottom.

1325
01:20:44,706 --> 01:20:49,411
"Next week, I get revenge for Thea.
For Riley and for Mr. Chase."

1326
01:20:49,477 --> 01:20:52,414
Because you saw the post,
you heard from Ridge earlier.

1327
01:20:52,480 --> 01:20:55,617
After the events of Sunday at No Mercy

1328
01:20:55,684 --> 01:21:01,056
will be Ridge Holland, Duke Hudson,
next week on NXT.

1329
01:21:01,122 --> 01:21:06,094
Of course, it's part of WWE on USA.
And who will be the last man standing?

1330
01:21:06,161 --> 01:21:09,197
Who will become the number one contender
to the NXT Title?

1331
01:21:09,264 --> 01:21:12,000
Our general manager, Ava, wants a decision

1332
01:21:12,067 --> 01:21:15,871
when Williams meets Pete Dunne
live next week.

1333
01:21:15,937 --> 01:21:19,941
The Rascalz, they became the number one
contenders to the Tag Team Titles

1334
01:21:20,008 --> 01:21:22,043
earlier tonight.
Well, they got their shot.

1335
01:21:22,110 --> 01:21:27,716
It's going to happen next Tuesday, live,
part of WWE Week right here on USA.

1336
01:21:27,782 --> 01:21:30,418
And Wren Sinclair
just couldn't help herself.

1337
01:21:30,485 --> 01:21:33,655
Je'Von Evans is going to get
to showcase his skills

1338
01:21:33,722 --> 01:21:39,461
against Charlie Dempsey for the Heritage
Cup. It's all going down live next week,

1339
01:21:39,527 --> 01:21:45,600
Tuesday, part of a huge,
massive WWE Week here on USA.

1340
01:21:45,667 --> 01:21:48,236
There's so much going on, Book,
I forgot to mention.

1341
01:21:48,303 --> 01:21:53,275
Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace issuing
an open challenge to anyone next week.

1342
01:21:53,341 --> 01:21:56,945
Well, here's someone who knows
what it takes to battle The Juggernaut.

1343
01:21:57,012 --> 01:21:58,880
[dance music playing]

1344
01:21:58,947 --> 01:22:05,920
[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome the NXT Women's Champion,

1345
01:22:05,987 --> 01:22:09,824
Roxanne Perez.

1346
01:22:10,325 --> 01:22:11,793
[Book] Stellar view.

1347
01:22:11,860 --> 01:22:15,230
[Vic] I mean, she's done
everything you can do in NXT.

1348
01:22:15,297 --> 01:22:21,269
Perez proved again Sunday
she is the measuring stick

1349
01:22:21,336 --> 01:22:26,274
in NXT. She even called herself
the best woman in the world.

1350
01:22:26,341 --> 01:22:31,246
[Book] There's a word I use, Vic.
Extra. Extra authenticity. Oh, yes.

1351
01:22:31,313 --> 01:22:33,782
[Vic]
More than one word. Just so you know.

1352
01:22:34,950 --> 01:22:36,551
[music fading out]

1353
01:22:36,618 --> 01:22:42,023
I'm sure you guys are probably so sick
of seeing this already, but I'm not.

1354
01:22:43,959 --> 01:22:47,062
Yeah, Jaida Parker slapped
the taste out of my mouth.

1355
01:22:47,128 --> 01:22:52,133
But defeat tastes so much worse,
doesn't it, Jaida?

1356
01:22:53,168 --> 01:22:57,372
And I've been handing out plates of it
ever since I arrived in NXT.

1357
01:22:57,839 --> 01:23:04,746
Second all time in PLE matches.
Second all time in PLE wins.

1358
01:23:05,747 --> 01:23:09,584
Io Sky, Asuka,

1359
01:23:09,651 --> 01:23:15,090
I'm smashing all of your records.
So, I mean, let's be honest,

1360
01:23:15,590 --> 01:23:20,228
99 % of the women who have competed
in a wrestling ring only dream of having

1361
01:23:20,295 --> 01:23:22,731
the career that I've already had.

1362
01:23:23,264 --> 01:23:29,604
I mean, even main roster
can't stop talking about Roxanne Perez.

1363
01:23:29,671 --> 01:23:32,374
[crowd chatter]

1364
01:23:37,212 --> 01:23:40,115
You know what? You know what?

1365
01:23:40,515 --> 01:23:44,319
I'll give it to Jaida Parker,
because at No Mercy

1366
01:23:44,386 --> 01:23:48,990
she proved that she is the future
of this Women's Division.

1367
01:23:49,391 --> 01:23:56,097
But I proved that what I have
can't be taught, produced or touched.

1368
01:23:56,164 --> 01:23:58,066
[shouts from the crowd]

1369
01:23:58,133 --> 01:24:02,170
I am the most wanted woman in all of NXT.

1370
01:24:02,837 --> 01:24:07,909
I'm the fantasy matchup constant.
It's Roxanne Perez versus X,

1371
01:24:07,976 --> 01:24:11,946
Roxanne Perez versus Y.
But when reality meets fantasy,

1372
01:24:12,013 --> 01:24:16,184
the results are always the same,
and they'll never change.

1373
01:24:16,584 --> 01:24:18,753
Because, like I said,

1374
01:24:18,820 --> 01:24:23,324
nobody has the ability to take
this championship away from me.

1375
01:24:23,391 --> 01:24:27,262
It doesn't matter if you're
the hottest NXT prospect.

1376
01:24:27,328 --> 01:24:32,767
It doesn't matter if you're
a former NXT Women's Champion.

1377
01:24:33,401 --> 01:24:39,340
It doesn't even matter if you're
the hottest free agent from Japan

1378
01:24:39,407 --> 01:24:42,811
trying to steal my shine.

1379
01:24:43,845 --> 01:24:45,747
I promise you,

1380
01:24:45,814 --> 01:24:52,821
when all the smoke clears, it's gonna
be me holding my title in the air.

1381
01:24:55,156 --> 01:24:58,159
[crowd cheering]

1382
01:24:59,594 --> 01:25:01,529
[speaker voice] It's Chelsea.

1383
01:25:01,596 --> 01:25:04,299
[rock music playing]

1384
01:25:05,934 --> 01:25:08,336
[Vic] Booker, she's back.

1385
01:25:15,143 --> 01:25:17,912
Were you expecting someone else?

1386
01:25:18,446 --> 01:25:22,817
-Actually…
-[Chelsea] Rhetorical question, Roxy.

1387
01:25:24,385 --> 01:25:26,588
Another rhetorical question.

1388
01:25:26,654 --> 01:25:30,658
Why does this section
smell like mildew and BO?

1389
01:25:31,526 --> 01:25:34,462
It's called deodorant, people.

1390
01:25:35,396 --> 01:25:39,267
Anyways, there's been
a lot of spec as to who

1391
01:25:39,334 --> 01:25:41,936
Ms. Polly Pocket is going to come out
and talk about

1392
01:25:42,003 --> 01:25:44,539
and who's going to interrupt her.
Yada, yada, yada.

1393
01:25:44,606 --> 01:25:50,545
And as we know,
I am beloved by the WWE Universe.

1394
01:25:50,612 --> 01:25:53,348
[crowd cheering]

1395
01:25:53,414 --> 01:25:57,919
I would do anything for my fans. Well…

1396
01:25:57,986 --> 01:26:00,989
[crowd] Chelsea, Chelsea, Chelsea!

1397
01:26:02,790 --> 01:26:06,561
As I was saying,
I would do anything for my fans.

1398
01:26:06,628 --> 01:26:09,797
Well, most of them,
because some of them are creepy.

1399
01:26:09,864 --> 01:26:12,100
Regardless,

1400
01:26:12,166 --> 01:26:18,072
here I am, my little fun-size champ,
here to interrupt.

1401
01:26:19,007 --> 01:26:22,510
And nobody, I repeat, nobody,

1402
01:26:22,577 --> 01:26:25,046
not Sir Nicholas the Prickles,
not Pee Head Pierce,

1403
01:26:25,113 --> 01:26:30,251
and not No Flava Ava is going to tell me
that I am not the number one contender.

[Vic] Booker, The Beautiful Madness
has arrived on a Tuesday night.

1407
01:26:56,744 --> 01:26:59,113
[Book] Oh, yes, man.

1408
01:26:59,914 --> 01:27:01,683
[Vic] look at this place.

1409
01:27:02,684 --> 01:27:04,986
Everyone on their feet.

1410
01:27:06,054 --> 01:27:08,022
Bones out.

1411
01:27:09,591 --> 01:27:13,528

[Vic] Chelsea Green
gonna be black and blue tomorrow.

1416
01:28:15,657 --> 01:28:18,126
[Book] You are not lying, man.

1417
