00:10:01,421 --> 00:10:02,288
But me,

173
00:10:03,505 --> 00:10:04,905
not a chance.

174
00:10:04,938 --> 00:10:07,371
Not a chance that Tatum Paxley
wins gold, right?

175
00:10:07,405 --> 00:10:08,471
Just like you said.

176
00:10:08,505 --> 00:10:11,088
This creepy little weirdo
should just run off and hide.

177
00:10:11,121 --> 00:10:15,138
But Jacy, a lot like you,
I kept getting better.

178
00:10:15,171 --> 00:10:17,021
[crowd cheering]

179
00:10:17,055 --> 00:10:19,921
I was training day in and day out.

180
00:10:19,954 --> 00:10:22,221
I just didn't have
the spotlight to show it.

181
00:10:22,255 --> 00:10:24,171
It was in empty rings.

182
00:10:24,204 --> 00:10:27,954
Day after day, night after night,
fail after fail after fail.

183
00:10:27,988 --> 00:10:31,155
But on Saturday, you better bet your ass

184
00:10:31,188 --> 00:10:34,305
that it's my time
that I become NXT Women's Champion.

185
00:10:34,338 --> 00:10:35,605
[crowd cheering]

186
00:10:37,771 --> 00:10:42,388
Tater Tot, look at you, all riled up, huh?
[laughs cunningly]

187
00:10:42,421 --> 00:10:43,421
[crowd chanting "Tatum"]

188
00:10:43,454 --> 00:10:47,688
This is only gonna make it
that much sweeter when you, well, lose.

189
00:10:47,721 --> 00:10:49,021
[laughs cunningly]

190
00:10:49,055 --> 00:10:53,721
You know, I just hope that Izzi
and The Culling don't leave you

191
00:10:53,755 --> 00:10:57,371
when you disappoint them
this weekend at Halloween Havoc.

192
00:10:57,405 --> 00:11:00,488
Oh, that's rich coming from you.

193
00:11:01,321 --> 00:11:06,138
Weren't you two the ones to kick out
your own friend three weeks ago?

194
00:11:07,088 --> 00:11:12,505
Unlike Fatal Influence,
The Culling is stronger than ever.

195
00:11:12,538 --> 00:11:16,655
And Tatum has been nothing short
of the greatest addition to our group.

196
00:11:16,688 --> 00:11:19,671
So call her what you want, but The Culling

197
00:11:19,704 --> 00:11:23,704
will always accept Tatum
for exactly who she is.

198
00:11:23,738 --> 00:11:25,671
[laughs sarcastically] Okay, Izzi.

199
00:11:25,704 --> 00:11:27,438
Wow, Izzi.

200
00:11:27,471 --> 00:11:28,688
Wow.

201
00:11:28,721 --> 00:11:32,338
You know, I used to have
so much respect for you.

202
00:11:32,371 --> 00:11:34,871
Really. I thought so highly of you.

203
00:11:34,905 --> 00:11:39,721
A strong, independent, confident woman.

204
00:11:39,755 --> 00:11:43,105
In my opinion, the leader of The Culling.

205
00:11:43,921 --> 00:11:46,905
But since Tatum's been around,
I don't know.

206
00:11:46,938 --> 00:11:49,405
Things have been a little different.

207
00:11:49,438 --> 00:11:51,855
If you ask me, she's more of what,

208
00:11:51,888 --> 00:11:54,954
a babysitter rather than a leader?

209
00:11:54,988 --> 00:11:57,888
Oh, believe me, Jacy Jayne

210
00:11:57,921 --> 00:12:02,371
when I say I am in full control
of my group.

211
00:12:02,405 --> 00:12:04,871
Hey, hey, hey, that's enough.
Enough. Look…

212
00:12:05,655 --> 00:12:07,521
I know that my friends support me.

213
00:12:08,121 --> 00:12:11,671
Meanwhile, you guys only have
each other's back when it's convenient.

214
00:12:11,704 --> 00:12:14,521
I also know that my friends
are happy for me.

215
00:12:16,221 --> 00:12:18,855
Could you say the same, Jacy Jayne?

216
00:12:19,888 --> 00:12:23,855
Because Izzi and I are willing
to prove that tonight.

217
00:12:25,305 --> 00:12:27,805
Well, you know what?
That's fine, Tater Tot.

218
00:12:27,838 --> 00:12:30,238
Because Lainey is ready to step up.

219
00:12:30,755 --> 00:12:31,871
Right, Lainey?

220
00:12:34,071 --> 00:12:36,704
Be careful what you wish for, weirdo.

221
00:12:39,505 --> 00:12:40,838
[Vic] Booker!

222
00:12:40,871 --> 00:12:43,905
Jacy might want to rethink
some of those words.

223
00:12:43,938 --> 00:12:47,155
-[Booker T] We got a fight.
-[Vic] Tatum, standing tall.

224
00:12:48,204 --> 00:12:50,871
And the champ gets dropped.

225
00:12:54,988 --> 00:12:56,088
Whoa, whoa, whoa!

226
00:12:56,121 --> 00:12:58,871
-An exclamation point.
-[Booker T] This ain't necessary.

227
00:12:59,888 --> 00:13:02,605
[Vic] Tatum and The Culling
at this juncture on top.

228
00:13:02,638 --> 00:13:04,638
[Booker T] Save that, save that.

229
00:13:04,671 --> 00:13:08,371
[Vic] Well, we'll see if that tag team
match gets made official.

230
00:13:08,405 --> 00:13:10,905
What a way to start NXT.

231
00:13:10,938 --> 00:13:13,588
[crowd chanting] Tatum! Tatum!

232
00:13:15,204 --> 00:13:16,704
What was that with Pops?

233
00:13:16,738 --> 00:13:18,488
Sorry. Santino Marella.

234
00:13:18,521 --> 00:13:21,171
Hitting the fast forward button
on us last week.

235
00:13:21,204 --> 00:13:24,021
-What do you mean?
-He said future son-in-law.

236
00:13:24,721 --> 00:13:26,271
Have you been talking about us?

237
00:13:26,305 --> 00:13:27,905
Oh, um…

238
00:13:27,938 --> 00:13:30,921
I may have dropped a few hints.

239
00:13:30,954 --> 00:13:33,454
[chuckles]
Well, how about this, beautiful?

240
00:13:33,488 --> 00:13:35,738
How about you accompany me
to the ring tonight

241
00:13:35,771 --> 00:13:39,371
and we can hard launch this relationship
with X-Division Championship?

242
00:13:40,505 --> 00:13:41,938
Anything for you, Channing.

243
00:13:42,688 --> 00:13:46,355
Hey, I told you. At work, it's Stacks.
You're gonna embarrass me.

244
00:13:47,588 --> 00:13:50,805
Ew, that is nasty.

245
00:13:50,838 --> 00:13:52,571
That's what they're
worried about right now?

246
00:13:52,605 --> 00:13:53,571
That's what I'm saying, bro.

247
00:13:53,605 --> 00:13:55,255
But hey, hey, I'll tell you
what I'm worried about right now.

248
00:13:55,288 --> 00:13:57,255
-All right.
-I'm trying to find us some opponents

249
00:13:57,288 --> 00:14:00,204
to go crazy against a Halloween Havoc.

250
00:14:00,238 --> 00:14:01,538
No, no, buddy.

251
00:14:01,571 --> 00:14:03,538
I'm sorry, bro,
but you need to be focused on tonight

252
00:14:03,571 --> 00:14:05,454
for the X-Division Championship.

253
00:14:05,488 --> 00:14:06,871
Come on. You're doing too much.

254
00:14:06,905 --> 00:14:09,938
All right? You need to slow down.
But you young. You got something.

255
00:14:11,438 --> 00:14:14,505
-Nah, I'm just playing, bro.
-You play too much.

256
00:14:14,538 --> 00:14:17,838
That's what they tell me here.
All right. But look, maybe we focus

257
00:14:17,871 --> 00:14:20,321
on Halloween Havoc
after you beat Stack's ass.

258
00:14:20,354 --> 00:14:22,255
-You're right.
-Come on, let's lock it.

259
00:14:22,288 --> 00:14:23,438
-Let's get it.
-You straight?

260
00:14:23,471 --> 00:14:24,704
[both] Yeah!

261
00:14:29,005 --> 00:14:34,354
[Vic] There is the challenger,
Stacks alongside Arianna Grace.

262
00:14:37,255 --> 00:14:39,421
[Booker T] Looking smitten.

263
00:14:39,454 --> 00:14:41,938
-Don't you think? [laughs]
-[Vic] That's one way to put it?

264
00:14:44,688 --> 00:14:47,088
["Youngest In Charge" playing]

265
00:15:11,055 --> 00:15:12,671
[announcer] And his opponent,

266
00:15:12,704 --> 00:15:16,788
weighing in at 198 pounds,

267
00:15:16,821 --> 00:15:21,888
He is the TNA X-Division Champion,

268
00:15:22,405 --> 00:15:26,288
Leon Slater.

269
00:15:50,821 --> 00:15:54,471
[Vic] Booker, are you buying into
the hype family of Leon Slater?

270
00:15:54,505 --> 00:15:57,221
[Booker T] I don't think it's hype, bro.
This is reality.

271
00:15:57,255 --> 00:16:01,371
This young man right here,
future is very, very--

272
00:16:01,405 --> 00:16:05,171
You got your sunglasses, you got, um…

273
00:16:05,204 --> 00:16:06,571
Oh, yes, man.

274
00:16:06,604 --> 00:16:07,905
[Vic] Future's certainly bright.

275
00:16:07,938 --> 00:16:11,371
And it's all about the X-Division title.

276
00:16:11,405 --> 00:16:15,954
Just the second time
this championship has been defended.

277
00:16:15,988 --> 00:16:20,488
[Booker T] Can I just say, A hell of a…
hell of an X-Division champion.

278
00:16:21,538 --> 00:16:24,338
[Vic] 20 years old
when he defeated Moose for that title.

279
00:16:24,371 --> 00:16:27,971
The youngest champion in TNA history
here tonight, once again,

280
00:16:28,005 --> 00:16:31,771
this time defending the championship
against Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo.

281
00:16:31,805 --> 00:16:34,954
You gotta credit this man,
that being Stacks, he always somehow--

282
00:16:34,988 --> 00:16:36,555
Oh-- Figures it out.

283
00:16:36,588 --> 00:16:40,204
[Booker T] Huge opportunity for Stacks
right here to knock this kid off.

284
00:16:40,238 --> 00:16:43,305
Is Leon Slater the flavor of the month?

285
00:16:43,338 --> 00:16:46,538
Or is he the real deal?
We're gonna find out here tonight.

286
00:16:46,571 --> 00:16:48,704
[Vic] We talk about the championship
that's being defended.

287
00:16:48,738 --> 00:16:52,354
AJ Styles was the first
to hold the TNA X-Division title.

288
00:16:52,388 --> 00:16:55,188
-[Booker T] Whoa!
-[Vic] Styles winning the RAW Tag Team

289
00:16:55,221 --> 00:16:57,671
championship last night with Dragon Lee.

290
00:16:57,704 --> 00:17:01,505
Hall of Famer such as Kurt Angle,
Rob Van Dam, former champions as well.

291
00:17:01,538 --> 00:17:03,838
But no one has held this title
more than Chris Sabin,

292
00:17:03,871 --> 00:17:06,555
of SmackDown's Motor City Machine Guns.

293
00:17:06,588 --> 00:17:09,805
[Booker T] Definitely, most definitely.
A hell of a champion in his own right.

294
00:17:09,838 --> 00:17:13,004
But can I say, congratulations
to Ilja Dragunov.

295
00:17:13,038 --> 00:17:15,055
-Ilja, brilliant, man!
-[Vic] What a match that was.

296
00:17:15,088 --> 00:17:16,405
[Booker T] Hell of a match.

297
00:17:16,438 --> 00:17:18,671
[Vic] Coming right in,
going up over sunset flip,

298
00:17:18,704 --> 00:17:22,788
not able to get Stacks down
and just tried to stomp this champ.

299
00:17:22,821 --> 00:17:26,171
[Booker T] Very, very crafty,
right there by Stacks Lorenzo.

300
00:17:26,204 --> 00:17:29,571
[Vic] And speaking of champions,
there is the former TNA World Champion,

301
00:17:29,604 --> 00:17:33,205
former NXT champion.
Trick Williams has arrived.

302
00:17:33,238 --> 00:17:37,071
Of course, we got that championship
contract signing for Halloween Havoc

303
00:17:37,105 --> 00:17:38,938
still to come here tonight, live.

304
00:17:38,971 --> 00:17:42,038
[Booker T] You know with contract signing,
there's a whole lot of money behind it.

305
00:17:42,071 --> 00:17:44,938
And Trick right there
was looking like nothing but that…

306
00:17:44,971 --> 00:17:46,438
[vocalizing]

307
00:17:46,471 --> 00:17:47,621
Oh, yeah, man.

308
00:17:48,405 --> 00:17:52,138
[Vic] Stack's keeping his foot
on the gas in this match.

309
00:17:52,171 --> 00:17:54,571
But love to put gold around his waist.

310
00:17:54,605 --> 00:17:57,355
This one just made official,
by the way, Book.

311
00:17:57,388 --> 00:17:59,938
We will have the tag team match
later on tonight…

312
00:17:59,971 --> 00:18:01,105
[Booker T] Oh, yeah.

313
00:18:01,138 --> 00:18:04,571
[Vic] …after the explosive comments made

314
00:18:04,605 --> 00:18:06,905
just moments ago,
but back to this matchup.

315
00:18:06,938 --> 00:18:08,588
I mean, last week's-- you got to,

316
00:18:08,621 --> 00:18:11,821
you got to credit Stacks for
creating this championship opportunity.

317
00:18:11,855 --> 00:18:15,105
[Booker T] Like I said,
it's a huge opportunity for Stacks.

318
00:18:15,138 --> 00:18:19,805
And like I said, shut up all the naysayers
right now, Stacks is on a high right now.

319
00:18:19,838 --> 00:18:22,055
He's got an abundance of confidence.

320
00:18:22,088 --> 00:18:24,555
I don't know if it's become
the lovely lady or what,

321
00:18:24,588 --> 00:18:26,804
but right now this is a different Stacks.

322
00:18:26,838 --> 00:18:29,088
[Vic] It certainly is.
But right now, Leon Slater,

323
00:18:29,121 --> 00:18:31,955
trying to capitalize right back
and connecting.

324
00:18:31,988 --> 00:18:33,338
Slater and Evans, of course,

325
00:18:33,371 --> 00:18:36,621
won a spot on Saturday's Halloween Havoc,
and rightfully so.

326
00:18:37,855 --> 00:18:39,421
Back elbow!

327
00:18:39,455 --> 00:18:40,921
I still can't believe
DarkState, by the way,

328
00:18:40,955 --> 00:18:44,521
ruined the instant classic
between Slater and Je'Von.

329
00:18:44,554 --> 00:18:46,955
[Booker T] Wait a minute. Hold on.
Check it.

330
00:18:46,988 --> 00:18:49,004
[Vic] Going up and down.

331
00:18:49,038 --> 00:18:51,621
[Booker T] Yeah, this kid is unbelievable.

332
00:18:51,655 --> 00:18:55,188
Look at… Dance, son, dance!
Oh, here he go.

333
00:18:55,221 --> 00:18:56,321
[Vic] Whoa.

334
00:18:56,355 --> 00:18:57,488
Hey, hold on.

335
00:18:57,521 --> 00:18:58,554
That's a headset.

336
00:18:59,288 --> 00:19:01,071
We will be right back
with his commercial break.

337
00:19:01,105 --> 00:19:03,871
[Vic] He did that better than you.
You wanna join us for commentary?

338
00:19:03,905 --> 00:19:06,571
That's your damn job.
What are you talking about?

339
00:19:07,071 --> 00:19:08,071
Oh!

340
00:19:10,771 --> 00:19:13,738
[Vic] Back live,
X-Division Championship on the line.

341
00:19:13,771 --> 00:19:17,705
TNA wrestler and champion Leon Slater
in the ring against Stacks.

342
00:19:17,738 --> 00:19:21,138
Je'Von Evans joining us on commentary.
And look, Stacks is no slouch.

343
00:19:21,171 --> 00:19:22,405
He's used to winning titles.

344
00:19:22,438 --> 00:19:25,421
I mean his Heritage Cup, by the way,
Booker, is at the bottom of a lake.

345
00:19:25,455 --> 00:19:27,621
Hey, wait-- counter, cover, kick out.

346
00:19:27,655 --> 00:19:30,938
[Vic] But you really wonder, Book,
how Santino would feel

347
00:19:30,971 --> 00:19:33,905
if another championship
went to an NXT superstar.

348
00:19:33,938 --> 00:19:35,638
I don't care if it's subtle or not.

349
00:19:35,671 --> 00:19:38,721
[Booker T] This TNA, NXT thing
is definitely something--

350
00:19:38,754 --> 00:19:41,605
-Something special. But with these guys--
-[Vic] Oh!

351
00:19:41,638 --> 00:19:44,838
[Booker T] …it's all about competition.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

352
00:19:45,621 --> 00:19:48,521
Oh, man. Let me tell you right now,
Stacks is looking great.

353
00:19:48,554 --> 00:19:51,554
I mean, this newfound confidence
from Stacks, you can see it.

354
00:19:51,588 --> 00:19:53,971
You can sense it here tonight
in this matchup.

355
00:19:54,004 --> 00:19:55,855
[Vic] Yeah, you can feel it as well.

356
00:19:55,888 --> 00:19:58,504
-Again, Young OG, Je'von Evans…
-[Je'Von] Yeah, that's me.

357
00:19:58,538 --> 00:20:00,721
-[Vic] Out here with us--
-[Booker T] Oh!

358
00:20:00,754 --> 00:20:03,605
[Vic] …providing commentary. Power move!

359
00:20:03,638 --> 00:20:05,288
[Vic] Looking for the title.

360
00:20:05,321 --> 00:20:07,338
[Booker T] Another near-fall right there.

361
00:20:07,371 --> 00:20:09,705
But it was modified and I'll tell you.

362
00:20:09,738 --> 00:20:12,155
Right there, Stacks making the moves

363
00:20:12,188 --> 00:20:14,621
on this kid Leon Slater.
I'm gonna tell you,

364
00:20:14,655 --> 00:20:17,671
that match, coming up this match
with Je'Von Evans,

365
00:20:17,705 --> 00:20:19,888
this kid, he has to be a little beat up,

366
00:20:19,921 --> 00:20:23,121
a little bit torn
after a match-up like that.

367
00:20:23,155 --> 00:20:24,588
No way he could be 100%.

368
00:20:24,621 --> 00:20:26,004
[Je'Von] That's real. What can I say?

369
00:20:26,038 --> 00:20:26,905
Come on.

370
00:20:28,205 --> 00:20:29,304
Come on, Leon.

371
00:20:29,338 --> 00:20:32,471
[crowd chanting] Let's go, Leon!
Stacks, you suck!

372
00:20:32,504 --> 00:20:35,988
[Booker T] Oh, just caught an elbow
right to-- to ear right there.

373
00:20:36,021 --> 00:20:38,138
That's a vulnerable position right there.

374
00:20:38,171 --> 00:20:40,705
-Got the equilibrium off.
-[Vic] Look at Stacks.

375
00:20:40,738 --> 00:20:42,855
-[Booker T] Oh, yeah.
-[Vic] Gut buster!

376
00:20:42,888 --> 00:20:43,955
Is this going to be it?

377
00:20:43,988 --> 00:20:46,438
-Championship won?
-[Je'Von] Come on, come on.

378
00:20:46,471 --> 00:20:48,021
[Vic] Another near fall.

379
00:20:48,054 --> 00:20:49,588
And look, I got to reset the stage here.

380
00:20:49,621 --> 00:20:52,771
Stack's getting this opportunity
because his future father-in-law

381
00:20:52,804 --> 00:20:54,771
TNA director of authority,
Santino Marella

382
00:20:54,804 --> 00:20:56,455
is signing off on this matchup

383
00:20:56,488 --> 00:20:58,804
and if you're talking about
feeling the impact,

384
00:20:58,838 --> 00:21:00,888
you're talking about
Stacks rising to the occasion.

385
00:21:00,921 --> 00:21:03,455
He is doing that right now
in this match up,

386
00:21:03,488 --> 00:21:06,038
He has grounded--
as Arianna Grace looks concerned,

387
00:21:06,071 --> 00:21:07,121
the youngest in-charge.

388
00:21:07,155 --> 00:21:08,588
[Booker T] Don't like Stack's
body language right there.

389
00:21:08,621 --> 00:21:11,738
He just wasted about 10 seconds
sitting on his behind

390
00:21:11,771 --> 00:21:13,238
when he could have been
putting the pressure

391
00:21:13,271 --> 00:21:16,004
on this young man, Leon Slater.
Oh, wait a minute.

392
00:21:16,038 --> 00:21:18,988
That's what I'm talking about right there.
Exactly what I'm talking about.

393
00:21:19,021 --> 00:21:22,004
[Vic] The champion,
looking to retain couldn't do so.

394
00:21:22,038 --> 00:21:24,121
Back up and-- oh!

395
00:21:24,155 --> 00:21:27,088
Utopia from the champion.

396
00:21:27,121 --> 00:21:28,838
[Je'Von] That was pretty. That was pretty.

397
00:21:28,871 --> 00:21:30,921
[Booker T] Can't give this kid
any separation.

398
00:21:30,955 --> 00:21:32,188
You cannot do it.

399
00:21:32,221 --> 00:21:33,355
[Je'Von] Get up, Leon.

400
00:21:33,388 --> 00:21:34,521
Hey.

401
00:21:35,238 --> 00:21:36,205
Whoa, whoa, whoa!

402
00:21:36,238 --> 00:21:37,821
-[Vic] Hold on a second.
-[Je'Von] Oh, hold on.

403
00:21:37,855 --> 00:21:40,888
What? Hold on. Don't kick.

404
00:21:42,771 --> 00:21:44,021
[Vic and Je'Von exclaim]

405
00:21:44,771 --> 00:21:46,571
[Vic] Right place, right time.

406
00:21:48,488 --> 00:21:50,004
Stacks just dropped.

407
00:21:50,038 --> 00:21:52,355
Oh, wait Stacks said--
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

408
00:21:52,388 --> 00:21:54,754
[Booker T] You better get your hands
off of that woman.

409
00:21:57,405 --> 00:22:00,004
[Vic] And right out here-- oh!
Action getting right back in front.

410
00:22:00,038 --> 00:22:01,538
[Booker T] This is serious, dawg.

411
00:22:01,571 --> 00:22:03,721
[Vic] Je'Von,
you wanted Arianna Grace to fall?

412
00:22:03,754 --> 00:22:06,605
-Je'Von caught her.
-[Booker T] This is serious, man.

413
00:22:06,638 --> 00:22:10,105
This is seri--
You don't put your hand on a man's woman.

414
00:22:10,138 --> 00:22:11,038
You don't do that.

415
00:22:11,638 --> 00:22:13,804
[Vic] There you talk
about being smitten once again

416
00:22:13,838 --> 00:22:16,338
as Arianna Grace
with the challenger here tonight

417
00:22:17,021 --> 00:22:18,355
Je'Von on the outside.

418
00:22:18,388 --> 00:22:21,538
Flying through the air
with that cross body was Leon Slater.

419
00:22:23,771 --> 00:22:25,521
And you felt the impact of Slater,

420
00:22:25,554 --> 00:22:28,471
who right now is trying
to fight through some pain,

421
00:22:28,504 --> 00:22:31,021
fight through some adversity.
That kick looked awfully familiar.

422
00:22:31,054 --> 00:22:32,871
[Booker T] Seen that one before.

423
00:22:32,905 --> 00:22:35,504
These kids always stealing moves.

424
00:22:36,421 --> 00:22:37,405
[Vic] I think he's just paying homage

425
00:22:37,438 --> 00:22:39,938
to one of his favorites.
You wanna look at it that way, Book.

426
00:22:39,971 --> 00:22:41,371
One of the greats, so to speak.

427
00:22:41,405 --> 00:22:44,138
That's probably the nicest thing I say
to you for the next 90 minutes.

428
00:22:44,171 --> 00:22:45,288
But Stacks right now.

429
00:22:46,304 --> 00:22:47,871
What is Leon Slater thinking?

430
00:22:50,038 --> 00:22:51,071
[Booker T] He's not gonna do that.

431
00:22:51,105 --> 00:22:52,638
-[Vic] Oh, he is.
-[Booker T] He's not gonna do it.

432
00:22:52,671 --> 00:22:54,871
-[Vic] Because he's big play!
-[Booker T] Oh, no. Oh, my God.

433
00:22:54,905 --> 00:22:56,455
Oh, my God, man.

434
00:23:00,855 --> 00:23:02,254
[Vic] What can't he do?

435
00:23:02,288 --> 00:23:04,421
[Booker T] I'm telling you right now.
This kid is dangerous.

436
00:23:04,455 --> 00:23:06,921
He's prolific. I only say that--

437
00:23:06,955 --> 00:23:09,538
He's like the wind.
You can feel it, but you can't touch it.

438
00:23:09,571 --> 00:23:13,021
[Vic] Perched up top
looking for that patented--

439
00:23:13,054 --> 00:23:15,671
-[Booker T] Oh, yeah.
-[Vic] 450!

440
00:23:15,705 --> 00:23:18,054
[crowd] One, two, three!

441
00:23:18,088 --> 00:23:19,138
[bell dings]

442
00:23:19,171 --> 00:23:20,705
[Vic] Slater retains.

443
00:23:22,238 --> 00:23:26,405
[announcer]
Here is your winner and still

444
00:23:26,438 --> 00:23:31,588
the TNA X-Division champion,

445
00:23:31,621 --> 00:23:35,455
Leon Slater!

446
00:23:35,488 --> 00:23:37,238
[Vic] We can talk about Santino Marella,

447
00:23:37,271 --> 00:23:39,821
but I know TNA President Carlos Silva

448
00:23:39,855 --> 00:23:42,504
is probably taking
a deep breath right now

449
00:23:42,538 --> 00:23:45,621
in this moment
as we get set for your replay.

450
00:23:51,821 --> 00:23:53,821
[Vic] And that move right there.

451
00:23:53,855 --> 00:23:55,538
That 450.

452
00:23:55,571 --> 00:23:58,254
Absolutely ruled. It's breathtaking.

453
00:23:58,288 --> 00:23:59,671
It's unbelievable.

454
00:24:03,821 --> 00:24:06,855
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on!

455
00:24:06,888 --> 00:24:09,605
Hey, give it up for Leon one more time.

456
00:24:09,638 --> 00:24:12,605
[crowd cheering]

457
00:24:13,588 --> 00:24:15,455
But, but, but, uh…

458
00:24:15,488 --> 00:24:18,971
Leon, let's cut straight to business.

459
00:24:21,054 --> 00:24:23,388
I'm trying to go to the desert, bro,
I'm not gonna lie.

460
00:24:23,421 --> 00:24:26,671
All right, look, I wanna go
to Halloween Havoc. What do you think?

461
00:24:26,705 --> 00:24:28,538
-I'm the same, bro. I'm the same.
-All right.

462
00:24:28,571 --> 00:24:30,705
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Hey, Je.

463
00:24:30,738 --> 00:24:34,538
The people already seen what magic
we create across the ring from each other.

464
00:24:34,571 --> 00:24:36,155
-Isn't it?
-Okay, you right.

465
00:24:36,188 --> 00:24:38,488
But… Hey, listen to my idea, dawg.

466
00:24:38,521 --> 00:24:42,705
What if we are stood on the same side?

467
00:24:42,738 --> 00:24:44,738
[crowd cheering]

468
00:24:45,588 --> 00:24:48,405
-That's fire!
-Yeah!

469
00:24:48,438 --> 00:24:50,205
But… but I'm thinking…

470
00:24:50,238 --> 00:24:54,371
I'm thinking if The Young OG
and The Youngest In Charge

471
00:24:54,405 --> 00:24:56,871
is gonna be in a tag team match,

472
00:24:56,905 --> 00:24:58,188
it gotta be a movie!

473
00:24:58,221 --> 00:24:59,388
-For real.
-You feel me?

474
00:24:59,421 --> 00:25:00,655
And guess what?

475
00:25:00,688 --> 00:25:04,538
I don't care, or we don't care,
if it's somebody from NXT…

476
00:25:04,571 --> 00:25:06,288
Anybody from TNA.

477
00:25:06,321 --> 00:25:08,655
Hell, anybody from… What's that other…

478
00:25:08,688 --> 00:25:10,838
[upbeat music playing]

479
00:25:10,871 --> 00:25:12,205
[crowd cheering]

480
00:25:18,788 --> 00:25:23,021
[Vic] Well, look who has arrived.

481
00:25:23,054 --> 00:25:27,004
Mr. Iguana and La Parka from AAA.

482
00:25:27,038 --> 00:25:30,304
-[Booker T] Am I seeing things?
-[Vic laughing] You are not.

483
00:25:30,338 --> 00:25:31,655
[tapping on mic]

484
00:25:33,388 --> 00:25:37,105
[crowd chanting] Iguana! Iguana! Iguana!

485
00:25:43,254 --> 00:25:46,554
So, correct me if I'm wrong,

486
00:25:46,588 --> 00:25:51,121
you guys planning on having
Halloween Havoc without La Parka,

487
00:25:51,155 --> 00:25:53,471
and Mr. Iguana,

488
00:25:53,504 --> 00:25:54,638
and La Yesca?

489
00:25:54,671 --> 00:25:56,638
[crowd exclaiming]

490
00:25:57,521 --> 00:26:00,655
You see, we just spoke to Ava,

491
00:26:00,688 --> 00:26:03,338
and she had the very same idea.

492
00:26:03,371 --> 00:26:05,504
[crowd cheering]

493
00:26:05,538 --> 00:26:08,304
We versus you two on Saturday.

494
00:26:08,338 --> 00:26:10,338
[crowd cheering]

495
00:26:11,671 --> 00:26:13,355
And FYI…

496
00:26:13,388 --> 00:26:16,738
[crowd chanting] La Parka!
La Parka! La Parka!

497
00:26:23,188 --> 00:26:27,804
And FYI, AAA has taken over Mexico,

498
00:26:27,838 --> 00:26:30,321
Los Angeles, Las Vegas,

499
00:26:30,355 --> 00:26:33,871
and this Saturday,
Prescott Valley is next…

500
00:26:33,905 --> 00:26:36,971
-[speaks indistinctly]
-[crowd cheering]

501
00:26:37,004 --> 00:26:41,004
[Vic] Well, buckle up, Book.
What a match this is going to be,

502
00:26:41,038 --> 00:26:44,238
Saturday, at Halloween Havoc!

503
00:26:48,038 --> 00:26:50,688
[Wentz] If there was ever a championship
meant for me,

504
00:26:50,721 --> 00:26:52,171
it's that Speed title.

505
00:26:52,205 --> 00:26:54,738
And Jasper Troy, he's legit.

506
00:26:54,771 --> 00:26:58,171
But, big man, smoke 'em if you got 'em.

507
00:26:58,205 --> 00:27:01,955
And unfortunately for you,
I got all of 'em.

508
00:27:03,838 --> 00:27:06,038
Defeat has never been my game.

509
00:27:06,071 --> 00:27:07,971
But I only need a few seconds.

510
00:27:08,004 --> 00:27:09,471
Wentz, when I catch you,

511
00:27:09,504 --> 00:27:13,105
I will break you, destroy, and advance.

512
00:27:13,605 --> 00:27:15,638
That Speed Title is mine!

513
00:27:22,471 --> 00:27:24,471

[bell rings]

515
00:27:30,405 --> 00:27:34,438
[announcer] The following
is a Speed tournament match

516
00:27:34,471 --> 00:27:37,138
with a three-minute time limit.

517
00:27:37,171 --> 00:27:40,905
Introducing first, from the 419,

518
00:27:40,938 --> 00:27:43,138
representing The Rascalz,

519
00:27:43,171 --> 00:27:46,054
Zachary Wentz!

520
00:27:46,088 --> 00:27:49,771
[Vic] Well, can TNA keep up the momentum

521
00:27:49,804 --> 00:27:51,705
in this matchup?

522
00:27:51,738 --> 00:27:53,738
["Sound The Alarm" continues playing]

523
00:28:03,655 --> 00:28:06,188
The rules are the same
as the women's Speed match.

524
00:28:06,221 --> 00:28:07,438
Three-minute time limit.

525
00:28:07,471 --> 00:28:12,054
The winner advances to the next round
to face either Axiom or Sean Legacy.

526
00:28:12,088 --> 00:28:13,888
That matchup is still to come.

[crowd cheering]

529
00:28:31,504 --> 00:28:34,304
And there is your prized pupil.

530
00:28:36,338 --> 00:28:38,788
[screaming]

531
00:28:38,821 --> 00:28:41,588
-[Booker T] You feel that?
-[Vic] Feel something.

532
00:28:41,621 --> 00:28:44,521
[Booker T] You feel the ground shaking
right now?

533
00:28:44,554 --> 00:28:46,455
That's that man!

534
00:28:46,488 --> 00:28:50,905
No bread, no water, just mean.

535
00:28:50,938 --> 00:28:52,905
Oh, yeah, man!

536
00:28:54,054 --> 00:28:55,455
[announcer] And his opponent,

537
00:28:55,488 --> 00:28:58,754
weighing 340 pounds,

538
00:28:58,788 --> 00:29:04,688
he is the winner of LFG season one,
Jasper Troy!

539
00:29:04,721 --> 00:29:06,871
[Booker T] Oh, yeah!

540
00:29:06,905 --> 00:29:10,955
[Vic] And he is the season one winner.
No stranger to winning.

541
00:29:13,855 --> 00:29:16,105
As there you see, well,

542
00:29:16,138 --> 00:29:19,504
El Grande Americano
has sent some to scout.

543
00:29:19,538 --> 00:29:23,321
That is Bravo on the left,
Rayo on the right.

544
00:29:23,355 --> 00:29:25,871
Their eyes on this matchup.

545
00:29:26,955 --> 00:29:29,054
And the winner of this Speed tournament,

546
00:29:29,088 --> 00:29:31,538
they're gonna earn the right to face
the men's Speed champion,

547
00:29:31,571 --> 00:29:33,271
El Grande Americano.

548
00:29:33,304 --> 00:29:35,221
So, this is the sort of style of a matchup

549
00:29:35,254 --> 00:29:37,871
that certainly would fit
someone like Zachary Wentz.

550
00:29:37,905 --> 00:29:41,288
[Booker T] I mean, of course, normally.
But styles make fights, man.

551
00:29:41,321 --> 00:29:43,238
And if I had to put money on this one,

552
00:29:43,271 --> 00:29:46,004
I'm putting my money on the big man,
Jasper Troy.

553
00:29:46,038 --> 00:29:49,205
[Vic] You don't question his ability
in this sort of Speed stimulation?

554
00:29:49,238 --> 00:29:53,021
[Booker T] Not really. I mean,
because he's 340 pounds, man.

555
00:29:53,054 --> 00:29:55,638
-He's 6'5. It only takes…
-[Vic] Oh!

556
00:29:55,671 --> 00:29:59,138
It just takes one shot.
One shot, that's all it takes.

557
00:29:59,171 --> 00:30:01,421
[Vic] The same can be said
for Wentz, as well.

558
00:30:01,455 --> 00:30:03,421
Know that if there was ever a title
meant for him,

559
00:30:03,455 --> 00:30:05,205
it was the Speed Championship.

560
00:30:05,238 --> 00:30:08,738
He has found success
as a singles competitor in TNA.

561
00:30:08,771 --> 00:30:12,071
Has 40 seconds off the clock
in this matchup,

562
00:30:12,105 --> 00:30:16,304
and went for a double stomp
right to the spine of Jasper Troy.

563
00:30:16,338 --> 00:30:19,004
[Booker T] Yeah, at some point,
Wentz is gonna have to

564
00:30:19,038 --> 00:30:21,171
-try to stay on his bicycle.
-[Vic] Whoa!

565
00:30:21,205 --> 00:30:24,655
[Booker T] But the thing is, he's only got
three minutes in a matchup like this.

566
00:30:24,688 --> 00:30:27,538
He won't be able to sustain it.
I just don't believe that.

567
00:30:27,571 --> 00:30:31,071
[Vic] You talk about three minutes,
60 seconds of that is already gone.

568
00:30:31,105 --> 00:30:33,038
We're under two minutes in this match.

569
00:30:33,071 --> 00:30:36,605
-And Wentz… Oh, no.
-[Booker T] Yeah, see that?

570
00:30:36,638 --> 00:30:39,538
-[Vic] I see this, too. I see that kick.
-[Booker T] Whoa!

571
00:30:39,571 --> 00:30:42,721
[Vic] I see Zachary Wentz right now
moving with purpose.

572
00:30:42,754 --> 00:30:46,405
And he's trying it one more time,
to take off the big man down!

573
00:30:46,438 --> 00:30:48,288
And he certainly dropped Troy.

574
00:30:48,321 --> 00:30:51,205
[Booker T] I mean, Wentz right now,
he's moving quick

575
00:30:51,238 --> 00:30:54,304
and at a very, very fast pace.

576
00:30:54,338 --> 00:30:56,621
But the thing is, Jasper Troy, like I say,

577
00:30:56,655 --> 00:30:58,804
one shot, one shot, that's all it takes.

578
00:30:58,838 --> 00:31:01,105
[Vic] 90 seconds, though,
is gone from this matchup.

579
00:31:01,138 --> 00:31:04,921
There's only 1:27 left, as you can see
on the right side of the screen.

580
00:31:04,955 --> 00:31:08,538
Swanton from the front.
Wentz into the first cover to advance.

581
00:31:08,571 --> 00:31:11,405
Jasper able to kick out.
Now, a buck twenty and counting.

582
00:31:11,438 --> 00:31:13,838
[Booker T] Looking good right now.
He's still in the game.

583
00:31:13,871 --> 00:31:18,105
He's looking real good, but I can see
the lactic acid building up in the legs.

584
00:31:18,138 --> 00:31:20,438
-He's moving a little slower now.
-[Vic] Uh-oh.

585
00:31:20,471 --> 00:31:21,671
[Booker T] Oh, yes!

586
00:31:21,705 --> 00:31:23,205
That's what I'm talking about.

587
00:31:23,238 --> 00:31:25,738
That's exactly what I'm talking about.

588
00:31:25,771 --> 00:31:28,188
[Vic] Got swallowed whole,
and the same again.

589
00:31:28,221 --> 00:31:29,521
[Booker T] Can he sustain?

590
00:31:29,554 --> 00:31:30,804
That was my question.

591
00:31:30,838 --> 00:31:34,804
[Vic] Wentz swallowed into the vortex
of a black hole.

592
00:31:34,838 --> 00:31:37,021
[Booker T] See what I'm saying?

593
00:31:37,054 --> 00:31:38,955
[announcer] Here's your winner,

594
00:31:38,988 --> 00:31:41,671
-Jasper Troy!
-[Booker T] See what I'm saying, huh?

595
00:31:41,705 --> 00:31:44,671
[Vic] I… [chuckles] Booker,
you can ask me 20 more times.

596
00:31:44,705 --> 00:31:46,988
-Yes, I see.
-[Booker T] I told you, didn't I?

597
00:31:47,021 --> 00:31:49,771
-[Vic] You did.
-[Booker T] Can't sustain three minutes.

598
00:31:49,804 --> 00:31:51,771
[Vic] Jasper Troy headed to the finals.

599
00:31:51,804 --> 00:31:54,071
And now, he'll wait to see who he'll face.

600
00:31:54,105 --> 00:31:57,488

still to come later tonight.

601

-[groans]
-Nope.

Sorry, Mama, but you chose Team TNA.

Hope you're happy.

Are you guys serious?

609
00:32:19,038 --> 00:32:23,105
If any of y'all had been in her position,
you'd be shouting TNA from the rooftops.

610
00:32:23,138 --> 00:32:25,538
I don't need you to come
to my defense, Jordynne.

611
00:32:25,571 --> 00:32:27,905
You had a role
in that Survivor Series match, remember?

612
00:32:27,938 --> 00:32:29,438
Dude, I'm just trying to help.

613
00:32:29,471 --> 00:32:31,071
Uh, excuse me.

614
00:32:31,105 --> 00:32:32,688
That should be all. [chuckles]

615
00:32:32,721 --> 00:32:33,921
Bye!

616
00:32:33,955 --> 00:32:36,038
Help that you clearly need.

617
00:32:36,071 --> 00:32:38,071
I was literally in your exact position.

618
00:32:38,105 --> 00:32:40,554
And I know that you've had
one successful title defense, but--

619
00:32:40,588 --> 00:32:44,155
Right. Right. Let's make it about you,
because that's what it always is.

620
00:32:44,188 --> 00:32:47,138
"One title defense."
The audacity. [scoffs]

621
00:32:47,171 --> 00:32:48,421
You know what?

622
00:32:48,455 --> 00:32:50,721
I'm starting to think
you're my biggest fan.

623
00:32:50,754 --> 00:32:53,871
Actually, no, no, no. I know what it is.
You're jealous of me,

624
00:32:53,905 --> 00:32:56,955
because I'm holding something
that you once held.

625
00:32:56,988 --> 00:32:59,421
And you've never been
a champion in NXT, right?

626
00:33:07,771 --> 00:33:10,888
Looks like Team Xtreme
got an extreme DarkState beatdown, huh?

627
00:33:10,921 --> 00:33:14,804
Yeah, the Hardys been riding real high
after becoming double champs,

628
00:33:14,838 --> 00:33:16,071
retiring The Dudleys.

629
00:33:16,105 --> 00:33:18,355
Thought they was just gonna
move on from us, huh?

630
00:33:18,388 --> 00:33:19,721
Man, hell, nah!

631
00:33:19,754 --> 00:33:23,138
Hey, you don't just
move past DarkState, fool.

632
00:33:23,171 --> 00:33:24,938
And them Hardys found out real fast

633
00:33:24,971 --> 00:33:27,438
when they were splayed
on the pavement last week.

634
00:33:27,471 --> 00:33:29,938
The worst thing you could have done
is single us out.

635
00:33:29,971 --> 00:33:31,638
Now your little fun time is over.

636
00:33:31,671 --> 00:33:35,188
We don't care that y'all are
the greatest tag team of all time!

637
00:33:35,221 --> 00:33:37,538
We are the here and the now!

638
00:33:37,571 --> 00:33:39,705
Putting y'all down for good
will make it a lot sweeter

639
00:33:39,738 --> 00:33:42,205
when we take those tag titles
back at Halloween Havoc!

640
00:33:42,238 --> 00:33:47,338
And this Saturday, y'all gonna find out
once again when DarkState--

641
00:33:51,655 --> 00:33:53,905
[Matt Hardy] DarkState, oh, DarkState.

642
00:33:53,938 --> 00:33:58,171
Those are strong words from a powerful
group of renegades like you.

643
00:33:58,205 --> 00:34:01,621
But if you thought you caught the Hardys
off guard last week, you didn't.

644
00:34:01,655 --> 00:34:03,405
You're more naive than you realize.

646
00:34:06,205 --> 00:34:10,371
We have been around the block together,
separate, teammates, rivals.

647
00:34:10,404 --> 00:34:12,971
Man, we have been through it all, man.

[eerie instrumental music]

649
00:34:18,538 --> 00:34:22,338
[Matt] We knew you weren't gonna go away
after you lost the NXT Titles to us.

650
00:34:22,371 --> 00:34:25,304
Dare I say, we knew you'd come.

651

[maniacal laughter]

652
00:34:29,454 --> 00:34:32,704
[Brother Nero] And you sit there and think
you have us exactly where you want us,

653
00:34:32,738 --> 00:34:37,238
vulnerable, weak, broken.

654
00:34:37,271 --> 00:34:39,338
[echoes] Broken.

655
00:34:39,371 --> 00:34:44,238
[Matt] But dare I say,
broken is where Brother Nero and I thrive.

[organ music playing]

662
00:35:29,138 --> 00:35:32,904
I knew you'd come! [laughs]

663
00:35:35,771 --> 00:35:40,171
State of Dark, you have woken
The Broken Hardys.

664
00:35:41,671 --> 00:35:44,904
[Brother Nero] DarkState,
you only broke us to make us stronger.

665
00:35:44,938 --> 00:35:49,038
Our next encounter
will be a Broken Rules Match!

666
00:35:49,071 --> 00:35:51,605
And a Broken Rules Match has no rules,

667
00:35:51,638 --> 00:35:54,488
-because in the broken universe…
-[thunderclap]

668
00:35:55,605 --> 00:35:59,005
anything is possible and everything goes!

669
00:35:59,038 --> 00:36:00,271
[sinister laughter]

670
00:36:00,305 --> 00:36:03,705
[Brother Nero] DarkState,
you'll simply fade away

671
00:36:03,738 --> 00:36:07,471
and classify yourselves
yourselves as obsolete.

672
00:36:07,505 --> 00:36:09,171
Obsolete!

673
00:36:09,205 --> 00:36:14,005
You are sentenced to deletion!

674
00:36:14,038 --> 00:36:20,421
Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete!
Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete!

675
00:36:20,455 --> 00:36:25,438
Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete!
Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete!

676
00:36:27,671 --> 00:36:33,005
[Vic] Oh, my Booker, Dark State's actions
have rebroken a universe.

677
00:36:33,038 --> 00:36:37,921
The NXT Tag Team titles will be defended
in a broken rules match Saturday

678
00:36:37,955 --> 00:36:39,654
at Halloween Havoc.

679
00:36:40,904 --> 00:36:43,305
On the topic of championships,
our double champion,

680
00:36:43,338 --> 00:36:47,688
Sol Ruca is to face Blake Monroe
with the Women's North American title

681
00:36:47,721 --> 00:36:49,071
on the line Saturday.

682
00:36:49,105 --> 00:36:53,371
But right now, speaking of these two,
let's go back to last Friday.

683
00:36:53,404 --> 00:36:58,305
It's when the Women's Tag Team titles
were being defended on SmackDown.

684
00:36:58,338 --> 00:37:01,805
It was the challenger, Sol Ruca,
the champions with Blake Monroe

685
00:37:01,838 --> 00:37:03,371
sitting ringside.

686
00:37:03,404 --> 00:37:07,305
What a matchup this was,
until Blake Monroe caused a distraction

687
00:37:07,338 --> 00:37:09,521
and bam, right there
you see Charlotte Flair.

688
00:37:09,555 --> 00:37:15,538
Flair and Bliss did what they needed to do
to retain the Tag Team Championships

689
00:37:15,571 --> 00:37:17,938
last Friday on SmackDown.

690
00:37:17,971 --> 00:37:20,271
-There you see Sol Ruca tapping out.
-[bell dinging]

691
00:37:20,305 --> 00:37:22,871
And there's been a lot of speculation

692
00:37:22,904 --> 00:37:26,705
about the condition
of our double champion, Sol Ruca.

693
00:37:36,488 --> 00:37:37,955
Are you sure you wanna do this?

694
00:37:40,571 --> 00:37:42,105
Yeah, I'm sure.

695
00:37:48,171 --> 00:37:53,205
[Vic] Back live on NXT
with our general manager, Ava.

696
00:37:58,438 --> 00:37:59,821
All right, Sol…

697
00:38:00,338 --> 00:38:03,788
I know that we spoke earlier
and you know how I feel,

698
00:38:03,821 --> 00:38:08,671
but you said that you wanted to address
the WWE Universe, so the floor is yours.

699
00:38:10,355 --> 00:38:15,021
Clearly, I'm not walking around
like I usually do.

700
00:38:15,055 --> 00:38:15,888
Um…

701
00:38:16,471 --> 00:38:21,371
Unfortunately, on SmackDown on Friday,
I got injured in our tag team

702
00:38:21,404 --> 00:38:24,571
championship match against
Charlotte and Alexa.

703
00:38:25,321 --> 00:38:28,955
[exhales] I didn't come out here
to put the blame on anyone.

704
00:38:28,988 --> 00:38:30,521
I know that injuries happen.

705
00:38:30,555 --> 00:38:35,588
It's just a part of the game
and you just have to move on. [sniffles]

706
00:38:36,238 --> 00:38:40,471
So with that being said,
I am not cleared to compete and defend

707
00:38:40,505 --> 00:38:45,338
my North American Championship title
against Blake Monroe at Halloween Havoc.

708
00:38:45,971 --> 00:38:51,738
I don't know when I'm gonna be cleared.
All I know is that I'm not gonna be good

709
00:38:51,771 --> 00:38:52,955
for Saturday.

710
00:38:53,788 --> 00:38:56,955
Sol, look I know what you're trying
to say,

711
00:38:56,988 --> 00:38:59,088
but I don't think that you have
to do this.

712
00:38:59,121 --> 00:39:01,038
I mean, come on,
what about your speed title?

713
00:39:01,071 --> 00:39:03,071
Can we talk about that later?

714
00:39:03,105 --> 00:39:06,188
I don't wanna hold up one division,
let alone two.

715
00:39:06,921 --> 00:39:11,288
I won this title in a ladder match
at Stand and Deliver

716
00:39:11,321 --> 00:39:14,738
because Stephanie Viqueur said that
there are so many women

717
00:39:14,771 --> 00:39:17,521
in that locker room just waiting
for their opportunity.

718
00:39:17,555 --> 00:39:19,654
And that hasn't changed.

719
00:39:20,438 --> 00:39:22,404
But I'm gonna earn this back.

720
00:39:22,438 --> 00:39:24,055
["Glamour is Forever" playing]

721
00:39:35,305 --> 00:39:38,621
I am so sorry, Sol.

722
00:39:39,321 --> 00:39:41,654
How unfortunate.

723
00:39:42,205 --> 00:39:47,438
But you need not worry about the future
of the North American Championship,

724
00:39:48,138 --> 00:39:50,188
because I'm right here.

725
00:39:50,221 --> 00:39:51,855
[all cheering]

726
00:39:58,055 --> 00:40:02,705
I was supposed to have
the match at Halloween Havoc.

727
00:40:02,738 --> 00:40:03,771
[man] We love you!

728
00:40:04,688 --> 00:40:08,605
Therefore, I am the number one contender.

729
00:40:08,638 --> 00:40:11,521
And since Sol can't defend
her championship,

730
00:40:11,555 --> 00:40:16,888
and who knows when you'll be cleared,
the champion should be me.

731
00:40:16,921 --> 00:40:18,955
[all cheering]

732
00:40:20,305 --> 00:40:26,988
I came to NXT to make it glamorous
and I will make that

733
00:40:27,021 --> 00:40:29,271
North American Championship glamorous.

734
00:40:29,305 --> 00:40:33,571
No, no, no, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Ava, do not take anything she says

735
00:40:33,605 --> 00:40:35,388
into consideration because, Blake…

736
00:40:35,904 --> 00:40:42,705
you do not deserve to get given a title,
especially one that Sol won.

737
00:40:42,738 --> 00:40:47,105
She busted her ass,
defended time and time again.

738
00:40:47,888 --> 00:40:52,088
This is NXT, Blake,
we do not give handouts.

739
00:40:52,121 --> 00:40:55,988
Oh! Yes, yeah, well done, Zaria.

740
00:40:56,021 --> 00:41:00,438
There we go again,
fighting all of Sol's battles for her.

741
00:41:00,471 --> 00:41:04,555
Maybe one day you could try, I don't know,
doing something for yourself.

742
00:41:04,588 --> 00:41:06,321
But until then,

743
00:41:06,355 --> 00:41:09,688
this brand needs
a North American champion.

744
00:41:09,721 --> 00:41:12,071
And who better than moi?

745
00:41:13,921 --> 00:41:15,721
Zaria, Zaria

746
00:41:15,755 --> 00:41:19,455
I hate to say this,
but she's kind of right.

747
00:41:19,488 --> 00:41:23,071
-I mean, I don't know when I'm gonna be--
-No, no, no, no, that's exactly right.

748
00:41:23,105 --> 00:41:26,288
We don't know when you're gonna come back.
It could be a few months,

749
00:41:26,321 --> 00:41:28,738
it could be a few weeks, it could be--

750
00:41:30,621 --> 00:41:31,938
[sighs]

751
00:41:33,388 --> 00:41:36,055
No, no, no, no, you know what?
You know what?

752
00:41:37,121 --> 00:41:39,871
Don't even worry about it. I got you.

753
00:41:39,904 --> 00:41:42,838
We get it, you're best friends, who cares?

754
00:41:42,871 --> 00:41:44,821
Shut your mouth, Blake.

755
00:41:45,321 --> 00:41:47,121
[all cheering]

756
00:41:48,438 --> 00:41:50,621
[speaking indistinctly]

757
00:41:50,654 --> 00:41:51,488
Sol…

758
00:41:53,271 --> 00:41:57,488
I can defend the title against Blake
at Halloween Havoc.

759
00:41:57,521 --> 00:41:58,671
What?

760
00:42:00,338 --> 00:42:01,171
What?

761
00:42:02,855 --> 00:42:09,671
I could defend the North American
Championship in Sol's honor.

762
00:42:10,904 --> 00:42:12,805
[all cheering]

763
00:42:12,838 --> 00:42:16,605
-Ava, what do you think?
-Ava, don't you dare answer that.

764
00:42:16,638 --> 00:42:21,271
We get it, you love Sol,
and Sol loves you,

765
00:42:21,305 --> 00:42:24,188
and this is probably the closest
you'll get to a championship,

766
00:42:24,221 --> 00:42:27,755
-but that's not--
-Okay, Blake, she asked me, not you.

767
00:42:29,488 --> 00:42:35,955
Now, although it is a bit unconventional,
I actually think it's a great idea.

768
00:42:35,988 --> 00:42:39,238
But Sol, it's your title,
so it's your choice.

769
00:42:48,005 --> 00:42:53,438
I fought so hard for this title.

770
00:42:54,571 --> 00:43:00,221
But there is no one in this world
that I trust more than you, Zaria.

771
00:43:00,255 --> 00:43:01,938
[all cheering]

772
00:43:03,838 --> 00:43:06,271
-I promise you.
-Sol, I say yes.

773
00:43:06,305 --> 00:43:08,305
So then it's official.

774
00:43:08,338 --> 00:43:12,904
This Saturday at Halloween Havoc,
it'll be Blake Monroe versus Zaria

775
00:43:12,938 --> 00:43:16,555
for the Women's
North American Championship.

776
00:43:16,588 --> 00:43:20,654
[indistinct argument]

777
00:43:28,505 --> 00:43:30,088
-[screams]
-Oh, Book!

778
00:43:31,121 --> 00:43:35,371
Zaria with a little preview of Saturday.

779
00:43:40,571 --> 00:43:43,404
And you just heard
from our general manager…

780
00:43:44,221 --> 00:43:50,105
the Women's North American title
will indeed be defended in the desert

781
00:43:50,138 --> 00:43:51,871
at Halloween Havoc.

782
00:43:54,221 --> 00:43:56,555
Time for tonight's NXT Spotlight.

783
00:44:03,321 --> 00:44:07,504
The rate of change
of an object's position over time.

784
00:44:07,538 --> 00:44:11,521
Nobody understands speed like I do.
Not even my tag team partner.

785
00:44:11,555 --> 00:44:15,404
But today, today is not about tag teams.
Today is about Sun Legacy.

786
00:44:16,671 --> 00:44:19,955
And I'll tell you, I've been watching
Evolve and I am very, very impressed.

787
00:44:20,721 --> 00:44:24,538
But I will warn you, it will be a whole
different realm of speed

788
00:44:24,571 --> 00:44:27,038
when you get to share the ring
with me tonight.

789
00:44:29,921 --> 00:44:32,371
Hey, look, in my opinion,
I think Axiom's

790
00:44:32,404 --> 00:44:34,438
the best in-ring competitor in WWE,

791
00:44:34,471 --> 00:44:36,404
but I like my chances
in this style of match.

792
00:44:36,438 --> 00:44:39,938
You see, I got three minutes,
three minutes to throw everything

793
00:44:39,971 --> 00:44:40,938
I have at him.

794
00:44:40,971 --> 00:44:44,321
I wanna bring the Speed Championship
to evolve every Wednesday night

795
00:44:44,355 --> 00:44:46,638
and to the WWE ID program.

796
00:44:46,671 --> 00:44:52,038
Most importantly, I wanna make
the Speed Championship super.

797
00:44:59,438 --> 00:45:00,871
-Wait a minute, Mike.
-All right.

798
00:45:00,904 --> 00:45:02,055
-I beat Lifefish.
-Yep.

799
00:45:02,088 --> 00:45:04,038
-I made Team NXT.
-We all saw that.

800
00:45:04,071 --> 00:45:06,938
And then boom, I got eliminated first.

801
00:45:06,971 --> 00:45:09,055
Miles, who do you think
you're telling, bro?

802
00:45:09,088 --> 00:45:12,555
I thought I had Ethan Page's number.
I had him up two to zero.

803
00:45:12,588 --> 00:45:14,805
And then when I finally get
my title opportunity,

804
00:45:15,654 --> 00:45:17,705
-I come up short, bro.
-Yeah, I know.

805
00:45:17,738 --> 00:45:19,705
It was supposed to be our chance
to shine here at--

806
00:45:19,738 --> 00:45:22,588
-Grown men crying, look at you.
-What are you talking about?

807
00:45:22,621 --> 00:45:23,455
Shut up.

808
00:45:24,105 --> 00:45:27,121
You're trying to figure out
how to be popular and successful.

809
00:45:27,154 --> 00:45:29,404
You're gonna be looking
for a long time, boys.

810
00:45:30,321 --> 00:45:33,521
Last week, I beat
the Internet's favorite, Matt Cardona.

811
00:45:33,555 --> 00:45:37,355
I spoiled the return that they've been
waiting for for the last five years.

812
00:45:37,388 --> 00:45:39,371
And I'm glad that I pissed off those fans.

813
00:45:40,521 --> 00:45:41,488
You know what, kid?

814
00:45:42,488 --> 00:45:46,488
I thought Ethan smartened you up.
But I guess you didn't hear him,

815
00:45:47,371 --> 00:45:49,154
because you got eliminated first, right?

816
00:45:50,121 --> 00:45:52,388
-Not wrong.
-What about you, Mr. Olympia?

817
00:45:52,421 --> 00:45:54,754
You gonna wait another four years
to compete for gold?

818
00:45:54,788 --> 00:45:56,238
-All right.
-Yeah.

819
00:45:56,271 --> 00:45:57,938
-There's only room--
-He's not wrong.

820
00:45:57,971 --> 00:46:01,188
There is only room for one at the top.

821
00:46:01,821 --> 00:46:04,388
And it ain't you, and it ain't you.

822
00:46:05,571 --> 00:46:06,404
It's me.

823
00:46:07,621 --> 00:46:10,738
But hey, at least the fans
will love you, right?

824
00:46:12,671 --> 00:46:15,238
You know there is only room for one of us.

825
00:46:16,571 --> 00:46:17,638
Yeah.

826
00:46:17,671 --> 00:46:21,705
[Vic] Well, tensions rising in
the locker room, and tensions rising now.

827
00:46:21,738 --> 00:46:25,055
Sean Legacy, Axiom,
who heads to the finals?

828
00:46:25,088 --> 00:46:27,855
Jasper Troy victorious, earlier tonight.

829
00:46:29,071 --> 00:46:30,705
-Ring the bell!
-[bell dinging]

830
00:46:30,738 --> 00:46:34,071
Again for Axiom, who comes out the gate
tied again three minutes ago.

831
00:46:34,105 --> 00:46:36,654
Quick cover, quick kick out.
Axiom, second speed match.

832
00:46:36,688 --> 00:46:38,605
Question is, who will meet Troy
in the finals?

833
00:46:38,638 --> 00:46:42,871
But for Sean Legacy, what does victory do
for someone like Legacy

834
00:46:42,904 --> 00:46:44,071
to get one step closer to a title?

835
00:46:44,105 --> 00:46:46,271
[Booker T] Sean Legacy is looking
to prove something here tonight.

836
00:46:46,305 --> 00:46:49,705
A big win. Live television, man.

837
00:46:49,738 --> 00:46:52,338
[Vic] High impact offense,
20 seconds in and a kick out.

838
00:46:52,371 --> 00:46:54,455
[Booker T] I would say that
he has arrived, man.

839
00:46:54,488 --> 00:46:57,138
Talk about taking that championship
back to Evolve.

840
00:46:57,171 --> 00:46:59,038
That's big, big talk right there, man.

841
00:46:59,071 --> 00:47:01,355
Quite the field pick by
our general manager, Ava.

842
00:47:01,388 --> 00:47:04,671
SmackDown NXT Superstars,
member of the Evolve roster,

843
00:47:04,705 --> 00:47:09,171
a TNA wrestler. And it seems that this
style of competition fits both these men.

844
00:47:09,205 --> 00:47:11,238
Styles make fights.
I always talk about that.

845
00:47:11,271 --> 00:47:12,821
These guys are around the same size.

846
00:47:12,855 --> 00:47:15,555
Sean Legacy,
that guy's got a lot of skill,

847
00:47:15,588 --> 00:47:17,838
life could get hard for this bad boy.

848
00:47:17,871 --> 00:47:19,821
[Vic] Cover, cover! Kick back.

849
00:47:19,855 --> 00:47:22,671
[Booker T] Axiom, a guy who has
a residency in my fave five.

850
00:47:22,705 --> 00:47:23,921
Glad to see him back.

851
00:47:23,955 --> 00:47:28,004
[Vic] There you saw Bravo,
Reyo once again out here…

852
00:47:28,038 --> 00:47:32,555
Rayo, excuse me, for the men's champion
in the Speed Division,

853
00:47:32,588 --> 00:47:35,188
that being El Grande Americano,

854
00:47:35,221 --> 00:47:36,738
getting some high impact offense,

855
00:47:36,771 --> 00:47:39,071
going for another cover,
and another kick-out.

856
00:47:39,105 --> 00:47:41,455
Legacy wants to prove his worth
as an evolved standout

857
00:47:41,488 --> 00:47:43,388
and also a WWE ID prospect.

858
00:47:43,421 --> 00:47:46,605
[Booker T] Sean Legacy says has
three minutes to let it all hang out,

859
00:47:46,638 --> 00:47:49,171
and he is representing the ID program,

860
00:47:49,205 --> 00:47:51,771
and I can only-- Oh, wait a minute!

861
00:47:51,805 --> 00:47:55,504
[Vic] Axiom right now, trying to get
into some sort of submission

862
00:47:55,538 --> 00:47:57,955
trying to lock in Legacy
center of the ring, 90 seconds.

863
00:47:57,988 --> 00:48:00,571
Legacy, right now,
trying to roll through, certainly did,

864
00:48:00,605 --> 00:48:03,205
right back in,
to maybe another submission.

865
00:48:03,238 --> 00:48:05,921
-[Booker T] Right now, Axiom is…
-[Axiom yells]

866
00:48:05,955 --> 00:48:08,154
[Booker T] …is showing
his in-ring acumen right now.

867
00:48:08,188 --> 00:48:10,988
[Vic] Watch his shoulders.
Referee, great job.

868
00:48:11,021 --> 00:48:14,371
Left shoulder coming off the mat. Both men
got to be worried of the clock, though.

869
00:48:14,404 --> 00:48:15,888
Minute 15 and counting.

870
00:48:15,921 --> 00:48:17,971
Big kick, though striking Legacy
right in the ear.

871
00:48:18,004 --> 00:48:20,738
Legacy is rocked.
Action coming right back in.

872
00:48:20,771 --> 00:48:24,305
-Charges in… Oh! Spanish Fly!
-[Booker T] Oh, baby! Oh, baby!

873
00:48:24,338 --> 00:48:27,221
[Vic] And Legacy's looking
at the clock, 65 seconds.

874
00:48:27,254 --> 00:48:30,404
He's got to move or Jasper Troy's gonna go
right into the Championship Match.

875
00:48:30,438 --> 00:48:32,788
[Booker T] I said he got three minutes.

876
00:48:32,821 --> 00:48:35,271
He's got three minutes
to go out here and make his mark.

877
00:48:35,305 --> 00:48:39,038
-Can he do it here on live television?
-[Vic] Los Americanos

878
00:48:39,071 --> 00:48:42,188
looking at the clock right now
as we're under 50 seconds.

879
00:48:42,221 --> 00:48:44,221
Axiom, in his first match on NXT

880
00:48:44,254 --> 00:48:47,105
since Stand & Deliver,
WrestleMania weekend in Las Vegas.

881
00:48:47,138 --> 00:48:49,521
Looking for that half and half
standing switch.

882
00:48:49,555 --> 00:48:51,738
For a moment,
I thought Legacy was going to--

883
00:48:51,771 --> 00:48:53,638
-[Booker T] Oh, baby!
-[Vic] That stand went

884
00:48:53,671 --> 00:48:56,271
right through Axiom with a super kick
and another kick-out.

885
00:48:56,305 --> 00:48:58,138
-[Booker T] See that?
-[Vic] I see the clock.

886
00:48:58,171 --> 00:49:01,338
-[Booker T] He timed that kick perfectly.
-Jumping in with 30 seconds.

887
00:49:01,371 --> 00:49:03,754
Axiom, trying to come in,
sidestepped for a moment.

888
00:49:03,788 --> 00:49:06,488
Big forearm underneath the jaw,
knees buckled.

889
00:49:06,521 --> 00:49:08,488
Legacy doesn't have time
to get cute right now.

890
00:49:08,521 --> 00:49:10,321
There's 22 seconds and counting.

891
00:49:10,355 --> 00:49:13,788
Legacy's looking at the clock,
there's 19, down to 18.

892
00:49:13,821 --> 00:49:15,971
Jasper Troy's got to be licking his chops.

893
00:49:16,004 --> 00:49:18,805
Big kick to the side of the face.
Thirteen seconds.

894
00:49:18,838 --> 00:49:21,404
The clock is running.
Axiom might not have time.

895
00:49:21,438 --> 00:49:23,671
-We're down to ten, eight seconds.
-[crowd] …seven…

896
00:49:23,705 --> 00:49:26,421
-[Vic] The crowd coming with it.
-[crowd] …five, four…

897
00:49:26,455 --> 00:49:28,538
-[Vic] And Axiom beat the clock!
-[bell dings]

898
00:49:28,571 --> 00:49:29,838
-[Booker T] Whoa!
-[Vic] And had

899
00:49:29,871 --> 00:49:32,871
-the right amount of speed tonight.
-[Axiom theme music playing]

900
00:49:32,904 --> 00:49:38,871
[ring announcer]
Here is your winner, Axiom!

901
00:49:38,904 --> 00:49:44,388
[Vic] Wonder what the Los Americanos
are thinking in this moment,

902
00:49:44,421 --> 00:49:47,504
because Axiom is one step closer.

903
00:49:48,638 --> 00:49:53,988
He advances to the finals and will
meet Jasper Troy in the tournament finals

904
00:49:54,021 --> 00:49:55,805
next week on NXT.

905
00:49:57,288 --> 00:49:59,238
[crowd cheering]

906
00:50:01,538 --> 00:50:04,838
[Ethan speaking Spanish then English]
…to Dr. Wagner Jr.

907
00:50:04,871 --> 00:50:06,605
How's my Spanish? I've been working on it.

908
00:50:07,438 --> 00:50:10,238
You must be feeling real good
about yourself right now.

909
00:50:11,404 --> 00:50:13,371
This Saturday is the match you wanted.

910
00:50:13,404 --> 00:50:17,238
A Day of the Dead Match
where anything goes.

911
00:50:17,271 --> 00:50:19,821
All Ego has done his research
on you, and yeah,

912
00:50:20,504 --> 00:50:22,671
I'm in for a fight at Halloween Havoc.

913
00:50:22,705 --> 00:50:26,238
You have survived cage matches,
battles in Japan for NOAH,

914
00:50:26,821 --> 00:50:28,904
classics for AAA in Mexico.

915
00:50:28,938 --> 00:50:33,338
You have risked your career
and put your body on the line

916
00:50:33,371 --> 00:50:36,055
all to defend the honor of your mask.

917
00:50:36,571 --> 00:50:39,321
Well, pal, this Saturday
we're fighting for something

918
00:50:39,355 --> 00:50:41,071
more important than your mask.

919
00:50:41,871 --> 00:50:45,871
We are fighting
for my North American Championship.

920
00:50:46,671 --> 00:50:49,738
You have a family legacy to uphold,

921
00:50:49,771 --> 00:50:52,271
a tradition set forth by your father,

922
00:50:52,838 --> 00:50:56,105
the same man who put
your Latin American Championship

923
00:50:56,138 --> 00:50:58,671
around your waist at Triplemania.

924
00:50:58,705 --> 00:51:02,705
And by the way, in his prime,
your dad couldn't touch me.

925
00:51:03,371 --> 00:51:06,455
And neither will you
in Prescott Valley, Arizona.

926
00:51:07,754 --> 00:51:10,038
This is your match, your rules.

927
00:51:11,171 --> 00:51:14,555
But when it comes to my title
and my continent, you…

928
00:51:15,504 --> 00:51:18,938
will be the one left for dead
in the desert.

929
00:51:21,671 --> 00:51:23,188
[distorted laugh]

930
00:51:25,154 --> 00:51:28,188
[Vic] Do not want to miss that match-up,
Saturday at Halloween Havoc,

931
00:51:28,221 --> 00:51:31,421
but coming up in moments,
quite a tag team clash.

932
00:51:33,688 --> 00:51:36,605
Hank & Tank take on OTM, next.

933
00:51:41,221 --> 00:51:44,238
These are two men that probably
ate their bowls of cereal,

934
00:51:45,705 --> 00:51:48,921
Saturday mornings, and ended up eating
the whole box of cereal.

935
00:51:48,955 --> 00:51:51,938
We're talking about the Belly Bandits,
former Tag Team Champions,

936
00:51:51,971 --> 00:51:55,471
and are looking for some-- He looked you
right in the eyes when he did that.

937
00:51:55,504 --> 00:51:57,838
-[Booker T] He was looking at you.
-[Vic] He certainly did.

938
00:51:57,871 --> 00:52:00,321
-He was not looking at me.
-[Booker T laughing]

939
00:52:00,355 --> 00:52:03,305
[Vic] Former Tag Team Champions
looking for payback here tonight.

940
00:52:04,921 --> 00:52:06,788
-["Out The Mudd" playing]
-[crowd cheering]

941
00:52:06,821 --> 00:52:10,638
♪ Out the mud, out the mud, out the mud ♪

942
00:52:12,855 --> 00:52:15,171
♪ Out the mud, out the mud ♪

943
00:52:17,738 --> 00:52:19,705
-[both growl]
-We back, baby.

944
00:52:19,738 --> 00:52:22,271
[continues indistinctly]

945
00:52:23,088 --> 00:52:25,455
[ring announcer]
And their opponents, Bronco Nima…

946
00:52:25,488 --> 00:52:27,521
-[Booker T] Fight!
-…Lucien Price…

947
00:52:27,555 --> 00:52:31,271
[Vic] Thought you'd say, "I told you
they're waiting for payback, Hank & Tank."

948
00:52:31,305 --> 00:52:33,404
Because last week,
they were not in a good mood.

949
00:52:33,438 --> 00:52:36,754
They were interrupted, interfered,
they were beat down by OTM.

950
00:52:36,788 --> 00:52:38,371
It was a Triple Threat Match last week.

951
00:52:38,404 --> 00:52:41,771
Somewhere, I'm sure Chase U
and The Culling are watching,

952
00:52:41,805 --> 00:52:44,404
because those teams
had a possible tag team opportunity…

953
00:52:44,438 --> 00:52:45,721
[Booker T] Oh, yes!

954
00:52:45,754 --> 00:52:48,654
[Vic] …that was taken from them,
courtesy of OTM.

955
00:52:48,688 --> 00:52:53,205
And our official, Chip Danning,
is just losing control right now.

956
00:52:53,238 --> 00:52:56,105
-[Booker T] That's the Belly Boys…
-[Vic] You can say that again.

957
00:52:56,138 --> 00:52:58,371
…coming back
for a little redemption, a little payback.

958
00:52:58,404 --> 00:53:00,188
-[Vic] Are they wrong?
-[Booker T] I love it!

959
00:53:00,221 --> 00:53:01,338
No, they're not wrong.

960
00:53:01,904 --> 00:53:04,038
-[Vic] Well, finally, there's the bell.
-[bell dings]

961
00:53:04,071 --> 00:53:06,955
This one is official, but I go
t to say this, Book,

962
00:53:06,988 --> 00:53:10,221
and I don't mean to put you on blast,
you were smiling real wide

963
00:53:10,254 --> 00:53:11,988
when OTM returned last week

964
00:53:12,021 --> 00:53:15,371
[Booker T] I like OTM.
I mean, Lucien Price and Bronco,

965
00:53:15,404 --> 00:53:19,055
these guys, man, they're a couple
of raw pieces of clay, man,

966
00:53:19,088 --> 00:53:23,105
that's looking to be molded
into champions like Harlem Heat.

967
00:53:23,138 --> 00:53:25,571
-That's the way I see it.
-[Vic] Cover, and a kick-out.

968
00:53:25,605 --> 00:53:29,421
Speaking of the titles,
how about Darkstate and the Broken Hardys

969
00:53:29,455 --> 00:53:32,555
in a Broken Rules Match,
Saturday at Halloween Havoc?

970
00:53:32,588 --> 00:53:36,355
[Booker T] Hardys, they got to understand,
these young guys, especially Darkstate,

971
00:53:36,388 --> 00:53:37,988
they don't care about legacy,

972
00:53:38,021 --> 00:53:40,671
they don't care about the veterans
running around around here.

973
00:53:40,705 --> 00:53:43,188
They're looking
to take over around here, man.

974
00:53:43,221 --> 00:53:45,888
-[Vic] Bronco Nima behind the official.
-[Booker T] Oh, yes!

975
00:53:45,921 --> 00:53:47,754
[Vic] You've got to believe
that the mindset

976
00:53:47,788 --> 00:53:51,371
of Lucien Price and Bronco Nima
has changed over the last year.

977
00:53:51,404 --> 00:53:54,771
Their last match was in January.
It's been quite a while.

978
00:53:54,805 --> 00:53:59,121
[Booker T] Military mindset rolling
on that criminal… Military mean money.

979
00:53:59,154 --> 00:54:01,605
-[Vic] Kick-out.
-[Booker T] That's what that's all about.

980
00:54:01,638 --> 00:54:05,238
These guys, right now,
are back here to make big-- Oh.

981
00:54:05,271 --> 00:54:07,338
[Vic] It's been a busy night
for our manager, Ava.

982
00:54:07,371 --> 00:54:10,521
-She's talking to Ricky Saints--
-What's he talking about? Keep quiet!

983
00:54:11,338 --> 00:54:13,538
[Vic] You can't hear them.
What are you talking about?

984
00:54:13,571 --> 00:54:15,338
We've got a match to call right now.

985
00:54:15,371 --> 00:54:17,471
We're just letting everyone know,
coming up later,

986
00:54:17,504 --> 00:54:21,654
we will have the official contract signing
for that NXT Championship Match

987
00:54:21,688 --> 00:54:23,388
for Halloween Havoc this Saturday.

988
00:54:23,421 --> 00:54:25,238
And there you see OTM.

989
00:54:25,271 --> 00:54:28,038
They picked their spot
perfectly last week.

990
00:54:28,071 --> 00:54:31,055
[Booker T] And right now,
they looking really good.

991
00:54:31,088 --> 00:54:36,121
These guys took a little time off,
got a chance to put the black mask on,

992
00:54:36,154 --> 00:54:38,355
go into self-interrogation mode,

993
00:54:38,388 --> 00:54:40,538
ask those difficult questions.

994
00:54:40,571 --> 00:54:45,921
"Are we those dogs?" "Is this our yard?"
That's what these guys are all about.

995
00:54:45,955 --> 00:54:49,671
[Vic] What do you think these two
have learned with the highs and the lows

996
00:54:49,705 --> 00:54:51,421
-here in NXT?
-[Booker T] Preparation.

997
00:54:51,455 --> 00:54:54,871
Preparation is the only luck
you're gonna have around here.

998
00:54:54,904 --> 00:54:57,205
In the streets,
it's one thing, man, you know.

999
00:54:57,238 --> 00:55:00,088
Even when you're on the grid iron,
it's one thing.

1000
00:55:00,121 --> 00:55:01,971
You've got to know your Xs and Os.

1001
00:55:02,004 --> 00:55:05,904
These guys right now, they're working
on the game plan, working on the playbook.

1002
00:55:05,938 --> 00:55:06,805
I love it!

1003
00:55:07,538 --> 00:55:09,371
[Vic] Take a look at OTM at this juncture,

1004
00:55:09,404 --> 00:55:11,488
almost having
a little bit of fun right now.

1005
00:55:13,438 --> 00:55:17,488
-Humbling the former Tag Team Champions.
-[Booker T] Yes! Oh, yes!

1006
00:55:17,521 --> 00:55:21,254
[Vic] It's a roller-coaster business
that's sometimes hard to navigate,

1007
00:55:21,288 --> 00:55:23,988
especially at an early stage
in your career.

1008
00:55:24,021 --> 00:55:27,471
[Booker T] Let me tell you. Hank & Tank,
they're not gonna be able to fool anybody

1009
00:55:27,504 --> 00:55:29,888
they're not gonna be able
to slip up and win a match

1010
00:55:29,921 --> 00:55:32,938
because everybody knows
they're former Tag Team Champions,

1011
00:55:32,971 --> 00:55:34,421
you can't take these guys lightly.

1012
00:55:34,455 --> 00:55:38,154
[Vic] Same thing you're talking about OTM,
You can say the same for Hank & Hank,

1013
00:55:38,188 --> 00:55:42,955
who finally found themselves, who finally
had their moment this past April,

1014
00:55:42,988 --> 00:55:46,938
Stand & Deliver, when they became
the NXT Tag Team Champions.

1015
00:55:46,971 --> 00:55:49,521
[Booker T] Tank Ledger,
he's the guys that pretty much

1016
00:55:49,555 --> 00:55:53,121
changed the whole name of the game
as far as this team goes, man.

1017
00:55:53,154 --> 00:55:55,938
So much energy, high energy. Oh, yes, man!

1018
00:55:55,971 --> 00:55:59,921
[Vic] Atomic Drop with a springboard
shoulder tackle,

1019
00:55:59,955 --> 00:56:02,071
cover… Excuse me, shoulder block,
and a kick-out.

1020
00:56:02,105 --> 00:56:04,121
But look, we're talking about Hank & Tank,

1021
00:56:04,154 --> 00:56:06,371
I mean, maybe last week, Book,

1022
00:56:06,404 --> 00:56:08,521
maybe last week is what
the former champions needed

1023
00:56:08,555 --> 00:56:12,588
to get that fire back,
but, oh, that just got extinguished!

1024
00:56:12,621 --> 00:56:15,921
[Booker T] Yes, indeed,
big time. Big time.

1025
00:56:15,955 --> 00:56:19,904
[Vic] For as big as Hank is, Lucien Price
just picked him up with one arm.

1026
00:56:19,938 --> 00:56:22,371
[Booker T] Lucien Price's a big buy,
got a lot of muscles.

1027
00:56:22,404 --> 00:56:24,121
Like I said, looking to make a statement.

1028
00:56:24,154 --> 00:56:26,754
Oh, look at Nima! Oh, yes!

1029
00:56:26,788 --> 00:56:29,705
[Vic] Tilt-A-Whirl style slam,
tag was made.

1030
00:56:29,738 --> 00:56:32,205
I'm trying to find Hank.
Hank nowhere to be found.

1031
00:56:32,238 --> 00:56:37,938
Tank all by himself and the numbers
not the advantage of Hank & Tank,

1032
00:56:37,971 --> 00:56:42,805
-as OTM just beat the former champions.
-[Booker T] Straight up out the mud!

1033
00:56:42,838 --> 00:56:45,238
-Oh, yes, man!
-[ring announcer] Her are your winners,

1034
00:56:45,271 --> 00:56:49,504
-OTM!
-[crowd chanting] OTM! OTM!

1035
00:56:49,538 --> 00:56:53,638
OTM! OTM! OTM!

1036
00:56:54,488 --> 00:56:56,938
-[Booker T] Check it out.
-[Vic] Take a look, feel the impact.

1037
00:56:56,971 --> 00:56:58,238
[Booker T] Oh!

1038
00:56:58,271 --> 00:57:02,938
[Vic] That is a way to come back
and make a statement right away.

1039
00:57:02,971 --> 00:57:04,588
[Booker T] Put that boy down.

1040
00:57:05,638 --> 00:57:10,404
Wait a minute. We still got a piece
of business to take care of it looks like.

1041
00:57:10,438 --> 00:57:12,371
[Vic] Oh, you can say that again.

1042
00:57:12,404 --> 00:57:15,321
OTM doesn't seem to be done
with the former champs.

1043
00:57:15,355 --> 00:57:18,021
[Booker T laughing] I love this.
This is what I'm talking about.

1044
00:57:18,055 --> 00:57:20,238
[Vic] What do you mean you love it?
What do you mean?

1045
00:57:20,271 --> 00:57:22,771
Holy cra-- I'm out the way.
I'm out the way.

1046
00:57:22,805 --> 00:57:25,004
[Booker T] It's like
the ultimate statement.

1047
00:57:25,038 --> 00:57:29,254
Oh, you come back up. Talking about whose…

1048
00:57:29,288 --> 00:57:30,938
I'm talking about taking somebody…

1049
00:57:30,971 --> 00:57:33,004
[Vic] Hey, think about this. Ref, come on!

1050
00:57:33,038 --> 00:57:34,688
-[Booker T] I'm talking about--
-[Vic] No!

1051
00:57:34,721 --> 00:57:38,088
-[Booker T] Yes!
-[Nima] You like that, huh?

1052
00:57:38,121 --> 00:57:41,721
-OTM back, baby! [continues indistinctly]
-Yeah!

1053
00:57:41,754 --> 00:57:43,821
We coming! [continues indistinctly]

1054
00:57:44,838 --> 00:57:46,721
[Booker T] Straight up out the mud.

1055
00:57:50,288 --> 00:57:51,588
[wincing]

1056
00:57:55,671 --> 00:58:02,221
[crowd chanting] OTM! OTM! OTM! OTM! OTM!

1057
00:58:02,771 --> 00:58:04,921
I'm glad you're having
a great time in Japan. Oh!

1058
00:58:04,955 --> 00:58:07,271
I forgot to tell you.
I found this Maybelline foundation.

1059
00:58:07,305 --> 00:58:08,805
It's honestly the best thing ever.

1060
00:58:08,838 --> 00:58:10,754
-I'll have to show you when you get back…
-Girl! [shushes]

1061
00:58:10,788 --> 00:58:11,705
[indistinct chatter]

1062
00:58:11,738 --> 00:58:12,955
No, I remember. I remember.

1063
00:58:12,988 --> 00:58:14,038
"Don't do anything stupid."

1064
00:58:14,071 --> 00:58:15,638
Ah, okay, bye Charles.

1065
00:58:17,305 --> 00:58:18,438
I guess he was busy.

1066
00:58:18,471 --> 00:58:20,321
Ah, wait. I just know he misses me.

1067
00:58:20,355 --> 00:58:21,504
-I can feel it.
-[laughs]

1068
00:58:21,538 --> 00:58:22,771
-Doubt that.
-Oh well, that was rude.

1069
00:58:22,805 --> 00:58:24,621
Um, I know at least he misses NQCC.

1070
00:58:24,654 --> 00:58:26,105
I mean, he won't admit it.

1071
00:58:26,138 --> 00:58:28,271
But ever since the group broke up,
he just hasn't been himself.

1072
00:58:28,305 --> 00:58:29,904
I mean, you know what I'm talking about.

1073
00:58:29,938 --> 00:58:30,921
-Mm-hm.
-Yeah.

1074
00:58:30,955 --> 00:58:34,154
So when he gets back, I want to make sure
he has something to return to.

1075
00:58:34,188 --> 00:58:36,205
Girl, didn't you just say
you didn't want to do nothin' stupid?

1076
00:58:36,238 --> 00:58:39,654
Well, it's not. It's gonna be the NQCC
but with a little bit of a feminine flair.

1077
00:58:39,688 --> 00:58:41,538
It's gonna be the official of our NQCC.

1078
00:58:42,188 --> 00:58:44,521
-Exactly stupid.
-Excuse you.

1079
00:58:44,555 --> 00:58:46,021
-Excuse you?
-Kendal, it's fine. It's really…

1080
00:58:46,055 --> 00:58:47,838
-No, it's not fine. No, it's not.
-It… it is.

1081
00:58:47,871 --> 00:58:51,605
Look, I'm not gonna stand here and
let you push around Wren or anyone else.

1082
00:58:51,638 --> 00:58:54,121
[sighs] Oh, Kendal,
I know you're feeling yourself.

1083
00:58:54,154 --> 00:58:55,738
You just won a championship.

1084
00:58:55,771 --> 00:58:58,605
But if I were you,
I'd let Wren fight her own battles

1085
00:58:58,638 --> 00:58:59,955
before I send you back to Evolve.

1086
00:58:59,988 --> 00:59:02,021
Look, I have no problem
fighting you or anyone else

1087
00:59:02,055 --> 00:59:04,305
who thinks they can run their mouth
without any consequnces.

1088
00:59:04,338 --> 00:59:08,205
Ooh, little girl. You better watch it.

1089
00:59:10,171 --> 00:59:11,171
Oh my goodness,.

1090
00:59:12,471 --> 00:59:13,388
[Fatal Influence's theme playing]

1091
00:59:13,421 --> 00:59:15,404
[Vic] It didn't look like Wren Sinclair

1092
00:59:16,838 --> 00:59:18,055
liked what she heard.

1093
00:59:19,538 --> 00:59:22,388
As we're trying to put ourselves
back together out here ringside,

1094
00:59:22,421 --> 00:59:26,904
as we're set
for another Tag Team clash.

1095
00:59:36,121 --> 00:59:38,205
These three women looking to continue

1096
00:59:38,238 --> 00:59:42,605
to wreak their own havoc
against Izzi and Tatum next.

1097
00:59:49,004 --> 00:59:51,171
Let's talk about what's gonna
go down on Saturday.

1098
00:59:51,205 --> 00:59:53,638
It'll be a Broken Rules Match,
for the Broken Hardys

1099
00:59:53,671 --> 00:59:56,504
will defend the NXT Tag Team titles
against DarkState.

1100
00:59:56,538 --> 00:59:59,205
Will DarkState regret
awakening the brothers?

1101
00:59:59,238 --> 01:00:02,021
Or can these rogue athletes
delete the Hardys?

1102
01:00:02,055 --> 01:00:04,555
We'll find out at Halloween Havoc.

1103
01:00:05,171 --> 01:00:09,154
We heard from our champion earlier,
but can Ethan Page back up his words?

1104
01:00:09,188 --> 01:00:10,738
Page defends the North American title

1105
01:00:10,771 --> 01:00:14,004
against international superstar
AAA Dr. Wagner Jr.

1106
01:00:14,038 --> 01:00:18,004
in a Day of the Dead Match
this Saturday at Halloween Havoc.

1107
01:00:18,038 --> 01:00:20,988
And another pair of AAA superstars
will complete in the desert

1108
01:00:21,021 --> 01:00:24,221
as Mr. Iguana and La Parka
will face Je'Von Evans

1109
01:00:24,254 --> 01:00:27,171
and the TNA X Division Champion,
Leon Slater.

1110
01:00:27,205 --> 01:00:31,654
This is going to be a full throttle,
high-paced Tag Team clash

1111
01:00:31,688 --> 01:00:36,771
on the spookiest night of the year,
Saturday at Halloween Havoc.

1112
01:00:40,388 --> 01:00:41,888
[The Culling's theme playing]

1113
01:00:41,921 --> 01:00:43,371
[audience cheering]

1114
01:00:58,338 --> 01:01:00,538
As we're set for
a Tag Team clash still to come.

1115
01:01:00,571 --> 01:01:04,271
Also Trick Williams, Ricky Saints
will make their title match official

1116
01:01:04,305 --> 01:01:06,988
for Halloween Havoc
with that championship signing.

1117
01:01:08,371 --> 01:01:10,721
As the night kicked off
with all these women,

1118
01:01:10,754 --> 01:01:14,771
and right now, they are set to clash
in this Tag Team contest.

1119
01:01:14,805 --> 01:01:17,438
We're starting things off
with Lainey Reid and Tatum Paxley.

1120
01:01:17,471 --> 01:01:19,271
Paxley, of course,
is the No. 1 Contender

1121
01:01:19,305 --> 01:01:22,504
to Jacy Jayne's
NXT Women's Championship.

1122
01:01:22,538 --> 01:01:25,504
She'll get that opportunity
in the desert, Saturday Halloween Havoc.

1123
01:01:25,538 --> 01:01:30,038
And were you shocked that Tatum
was the last one standing last week?

1124
01:01:30,071 --> 01:01:34,921
[Booker T] I mean, I was a little shocked,
but Tatum has been putting in the work.

1125
01:01:34,955 --> 01:01:37,988
But let's talk about her.
Let's talk about Lainey Reid.

1126
01:01:38,021 --> 01:01:39,654
The number one with fast pace.

1127
01:01:39,688 --> 01:01:40,805
For, for everything…

1128
01:01:40,838 --> 01:01:41,855
Let me tell you something.

1129
01:01:41,888 --> 01:01:44,338
Lainey Reid.
She's the bigger, she's the larger.

1130
01:01:44,371 --> 01:01:46,205
She's looking to be a big star.
You know what I mean.

1131
01:01:49,021 --> 01:01:49,855
Ah!

1132
01:01:51,571 --> 01:01:53,788
[Vic] As Lainey Reid
coming with a right… Oh!

1133
01:01:53,821 --> 01:01:56,338
Too much time might have telegraphed
that one a little bit too much,

1134
01:01:56,371 --> 01:01:58,538
as Paxley with
that knee right to the face.

1135
01:01:58,571 --> 01:02:00,605
But how big of a match is this?

1136
01:02:00,638 --> 01:02:03,271
For the challenger and the champion.

1137
01:02:03,305 --> 01:02:04,455
Even though it's a Tag Team clash,

1138
01:02:04,488 --> 01:02:06,254
it's about building momentum
to Halloween Havoc.

1139
01:02:06,288 --> 01:02:07,605
[Booker T] It is.
It's about building momentum.

1140
01:02:07,638 --> 01:02:09,455
But check out Jacy Jayne.

1141
01:02:09,488 --> 01:02:12,571
She's a little too hot
to handle and a…

1142
01:02:12,605 --> 01:02:18,154
little too cold, and she's looking
to go out there and dominate.

1143
01:02:18,188 --> 01:02:22,138
[Vic] You're throwing out 80s
glam metal lyrics right now, Book?

1144
01:02:22,171 --> 01:02:24,154
Because the last thing
I thought you were going to do…

1145
01:02:24,188 --> 01:02:26,321
With a big right hand
and now trading shots

1146
01:02:26,355 --> 01:02:27,921
back and forth, center of the ring.

1147
01:02:27,955 --> 01:02:30,371
Tatum, of course,
won that Battle Royal last week,

1148
01:02:30,404 --> 01:02:32,921
challengers for the Women's title and…
Look in there right now.

1149
01:02:32,955 --> 01:02:35,055
-Nice takedown from Jacy Jayne.
-[audience chants]

1150
01:02:35,855 --> 01:02:38,821
[Booker T] The way she says it
is like she wants to hint something.

1151
01:02:38,855 --> 01:02:39,988
You know?

1152
01:02:40,871 --> 01:02:42,638
[Booker T laughs]

1153
01:02:42,671 --> 01:02:43,938
[shouts]

1154
01:02:43,971 --> 01:02:46,088
Double under hook.
Booker's on one, right?

1155
01:02:46,121 --> 01:02:48,888
You must've gotten into my
Halloween candy stash already before--

1156
01:02:48,921 --> 01:02:50,171
And oh!

1157
01:02:50,205 --> 01:02:51,371
[Booker T] Give it up for Tatum Paxley.

1158
01:02:51,404 --> 01:02:53,105
[Vic] And look at this innovative offense.

1159
01:02:53,138 --> 01:02:54,671
[Booker T] Tatum Paxley
is looking to prove that

1160
01:02:54,705 --> 01:02:57,288
she's not just some Johnny-come-lately.

1161
01:02:57,321 --> 01:03:00,004
She's looking to go out there
and prove that she's championship worthy.

1162
01:03:00,038 --> 01:03:01,071
[Vic] Book, I want to ask you this, too.

1163
01:03:01,105 --> 01:03:03,588
Do you get the sense that Izzi,
who goes into the cover and kick out.

1164
01:03:03,621 --> 01:03:05,171
Izzi is a little bit jealous

1165
01:03:05,205 --> 01:03:06,938
-of Lyra and Tatum friendship?
-[Booker T] I don't think so.

1166
01:03:06,971 --> 01:03:08,871
You didn't even let me
finish the damn question.

1167
01:03:08,904 --> 01:03:10,938
-You know what? You might be right.
-[Vic] You told me to shut up.

1168
01:03:10,971 --> 01:03:11,938
[Booker T and Vic laugh]

1169
01:03:11,971 --> 01:03:14,955
[Booker T] You might be right
as far as that goes, but Izzi Dame…

1170
01:03:14,988 --> 01:03:16,621
-Get out!
-[Booker T] Izzi Dame's a player.

1171
01:03:16,654 --> 01:03:18,421
She's all about business.

1172
01:03:18,455 --> 01:03:20,788
She's all about making money move.

1173
01:03:20,821 --> 01:03:22,555
You got to give her
a whole lot of credit for the way

1174
01:03:22,588 --> 01:03:24,904
she's been running this team,
The Culling, right?

1175
01:03:24,938 --> 01:03:27,371
[Vic]  I don't disagree with you,
but so now I'll take it

1176
01:03:27,404 --> 01:03:28,754
a step further and talk about Lyra.

1177
01:03:28,788 --> 01:03:31,788
Is Lyra, in your opinion,
a hindrance to Tatum Paxley?

1178
01:03:31,821 --> 01:03:33,971
If she's all in on being with The Culling?

1179
01:03:34,004 --> 01:03:34,955
[Booker T] Is she here tonight?

1180
01:03:34,988 --> 01:03:36,471
-[Vic] She is not. She is not.
-[Booker T] Is she here tonight?

1181
01:03:36,504 --> 01:03:37,788
-That should say it.
-[Vic] That I know of.

1182
01:03:37,821 --> 01:03:39,821
[Booker T] That should answer
everything you just said, right?

1183
01:03:39,855 --> 01:03:41,688
[Vic] Well, Lyra Valkyria,
who has fond memories

1184
01:03:41,721 --> 01:03:43,288
of Halloween Havoc in 2023,

1185
01:03:43,321 --> 01:03:46,671
defeated Becky Lynch,
become the NXT Women's Champion,

1186
01:03:46,705 --> 01:03:50,521
and she hopes her friend maybe follow
in her footsteps on Saturday.

1187
01:03:50,555 --> 01:03:51,938
[Booker T] Give it up to Jacy Jayne.

1188
01:03:51,971 --> 01:03:55,588
I'm talking about somebody
who has definitely upped her game.

1189
01:03:55,621 --> 01:03:59,271
They always say that championship
make it about 30% better,

1190
01:03:59,305 --> 01:04:02,688
I say Jacy has made her about 35%.

1191
01:04:02,721 --> 01:04:04,105
-[Vic] Oh!
-[Booker T] Yeah!

1192
01:04:04,138 --> 01:04:09,771
[Vic] Backbreaker right to the spine,
and Izzi, charging in, tag was made.

1193
01:04:09,805 --> 01:04:10,771
Tatum, now legal.

1194
01:04:13,038 --> 01:04:15,738
Take a look at The Culling.
they are right now,

1195
01:04:16,404 --> 01:04:19,904
-taking it to Fatal Influence.
-[Booker T] Good shot there by Tatum.

1196
01:04:21,488 --> 01:04:23,538
-[Vic] And Lainey Reid…
-[Booker T] Oh, wait a minute.

1197
01:04:23,571 --> 01:04:25,938
[Booker T] Hell of a Tag Team
partner right there.

1198
01:04:25,971 --> 01:04:27,988
[Vic] Are you talking about Izzi?
Are you talking about Tatum?

1199
01:04:28,021 --> 01:04:29,788
-Who are you talking about?
-[Booker T] About Jacy Jayne.

1200
01:04:29,821 --> 01:04:30,988
-[Vic] They're all over the place.
-[Booker T] About Jacy Jayne!

1201
01:04:31,021 --> 01:04:32,654
[Vic] Jacy's getting taken out right now.

1202
01:04:32,688 --> 01:04:34,271
[Booker T] She just came in to help.

1203
01:04:34,305 --> 01:04:36,988
[Vic] Oh, and she certainly did.
But Izzi helped out as well.

1204
01:04:37,021 --> 01:04:39,271
-Tatum's rocking, rolling.
-[audience cheering]

1205
01:04:39,305 --> 01:04:41,188
[Booker T] That's your wild right now.
Watch out!

1206
01:04:41,221 --> 01:04:42,555
-Watch out!
-[Vic] And now she's flying.

1207
01:04:43,455 --> 01:04:45,538
Caught Fallon. And whoa, whoa!

1208
01:04:45,571 --> 01:04:48,238
There's Jacey again,
Jacey holding Tatum.

1209
01:04:48,271 --> 01:04:50,288
-And Lainey Reid…
-[Booker T] See that!

1210
01:04:50,321 --> 01:04:54,221
…with that beautiful neckbreaker
changing the complexion

1211
01:04:54,254 --> 01:04:56,838
-of this match.
-And it'll be the same upon Saturday.

1212
01:04:56,871 --> 01:04:59,121
[Booker T] Number one. Number one!

1213
01:04:59,154 --> 01:05:01,988
-[laughs]
-[audience jeers]

1214
01:05:04,588 --> 01:05:05,605
[Vic] Back on NXT.

1215
01:05:05,638 --> 01:05:07,004
What a match up this has been.

1216
01:05:07,038 --> 01:05:09,388
Tatum Paxley trying to make
a tag to Izzi Dame.

1217
01:05:09,421 --> 01:05:11,088
So close yet so far away.

1218
01:05:11,121 --> 01:05:14,371
Lainey swings and a miss. Paxley
back up with a big kick.

1219
01:05:14,404 --> 01:05:16,571
And desperately right now,

1220
01:05:16,605 --> 01:05:18,754
Tatum's got to make a tag.

1221
01:05:18,788 --> 01:05:21,688
[Booker T]  That was that, as you
just said, out of desperation alright.

1222
01:05:21,721 --> 01:05:25,338
Right now,
Tatum is in panic mode because…

1223
01:05:25,371 --> 01:05:27,488
-Lainey Reid is putting up great work.
-[Vic] Oh.

1224
01:05:27,521 --> 01:05:29,138
[Vic] And look at Izzi.

1225
01:05:29,171 --> 01:05:31,388
Running right through the competition.

1226
01:05:31,421 --> 01:05:33,504
She's got to be a little
extra peeved this week.

1227
01:05:33,538 --> 01:05:34,888
Do you not think she should have maybe,

1228
01:05:34,921 --> 01:05:37,938
-in her own mind won that Battle Royal?
-[Booker T] Perhaps.

1229
01:05:37,971 --> 01:05:40,904
Or maybe she's a little jealous
and trying to come in here

1230
01:05:40,938 --> 01:05:44,805
and trying to get a little bragging
rights, get a win, get a victory,

1231
01:05:44,838 --> 01:05:47,538
that makes everything a whole lot better.

1232
01:05:47,571 --> 01:05:49,705
-Oh yeah!
-[Vic] Double it up!

1233
01:05:50,688 --> 01:05:53,721
And maybe, at the same time,
Izzi is fighting for her BFF,

1234
01:05:53,754 --> 01:05:57,721
trying to soften up
the NXT Women's Champion.

1235
01:05:57,754 --> 01:05:59,904
-Massive chokeslam to the champ.
-[Booker T] Got all of it!

1236
01:05:59,938 --> 01:06:02,105
-Got all of it!
-[Vic] Cover and…

1237
01:06:02,138 --> 01:06:03,254
A near fall.

1238
01:06:04,988 --> 01:06:07,071
Take another look to feel…

1239
01:06:07,105 --> 01:06:08,105
Uh!

1240
01:06:08,138 --> 01:06:12,805
…that impact,
and you've got to also think Jacy Jayne…

1241
01:06:12,838 --> 01:06:16,754
You talk about her wanting to take
this match to download some information.

1242
01:06:16,788 --> 01:06:19,071
It could also play out in another way.

1243
01:06:19,105 --> 01:06:21,205
She could take too much damage
in this matchup

1244
01:06:21,238 --> 01:06:23,504
and she could be
softened up for Halloween Havoc.

1245
01:06:23,538 --> 01:06:24,988
As Paxley tagged in.

1246
01:06:25,021 --> 01:06:25,971
She's legal.

1247
01:06:26,004 --> 01:06:26,921
[Booker T] Oh, wait a minute.

1248
01:06:26,955 --> 01:06:29,805
Right now, Baxley just--
Oh, got caught.

1249
01:06:29,838 --> 01:06:31,471
-She got caught, baby.
-[Vic] Jesus!

1250
01:06:31,504 --> 01:06:32,488
Beautiful thrust.

1251
01:06:32,521 --> 01:06:34,055
[Vic] We can talk
about Tatum going through

1252
01:06:34,088 --> 01:06:36,305
all the adversity she has
in her last few years.

1253
01:06:36,338 --> 01:06:39,154
But the same can be said for Jacy Jayne.

1254
01:06:39,188 --> 01:06:40,671
-High impact!
-[Booker T] Oh.

1255
01:06:40,705 --> 01:06:42,871
-[Vic] Will it be enough? And…
-[Booker T] Oh.

1256
01:06:42,904 --> 01:06:44,488
Lainey Reid, right place, right time.

1257
01:06:44,521 --> 01:06:45,955
And so far, you've got to love
the addition

1258
01:06:45,988 --> 01:06:47,638
of Lainey Reid to Fatal Influence.

1259
01:06:47,671 --> 01:06:50,588
[Booker T] Lainey Reid is
a big dividend right now, in this matchup,

1260
01:06:50,621 --> 01:06:52,671
[Vic] Big clothesline from Izzi.

1261
01:06:53,838 --> 01:06:57,638
Bodies scattered all around.
The night started with The Culling

1262
01:06:58,438 --> 01:07:01,221
and Fatal Influence coming face to face.

1263
01:07:01,254 --> 01:07:04,788
[audience chants] This is awesome!

1264
01:07:04,821 --> 01:07:07,754
[Vic] Out general manager
made this matchup.

1265
01:07:07,788 --> 01:07:09,138
Sidestepping the champ.

1266
01:07:09,171 --> 01:07:12,338
And that would've been a lot of momentum
built towards Halloween Havoc.

1267
01:07:12,371 --> 01:07:15,471
Big step, a bit sugary.
cChampion right now on dream street.

1268
01:07:15,504 --> 01:07:16,955
Tatum Paxley in control.

1269
01:07:16,988 --> 01:07:19,488
And what in the hell is Fallon doing?

1270
01:07:19,521 --> 01:07:21,688
-Izzi wiping out Fallon Henley.
-[Booker T] What the hell?

1271
01:07:21,721 --> 01:07:23,238
-What the hell was that?
-[Vic] Exactly.

1272
01:07:23,271 --> 01:07:24,421
That's what I was saying.

1273
01:07:24,455 --> 01:07:28,071
Oh, Lainey on the far side,
taking out Izzi for the moment,

1274
01:07:28,105 --> 01:07:29,788
Bought a little bit too much time.

1275
01:07:29,821 --> 01:07:31,788
Jacy Jayne, now looking to make

1276
01:07:31,821 --> 01:07:33,455
-Paxley pay.
-[Booker T] Oh, sweet that!

1277
01:07:33,488 --> 01:07:35,738
-Good niight.
-[Vic] Rolling Encore.

1278
01:07:35,771 --> 01:07:39,154
And Jayne just pinned
the No. 1 Contender.

1279
01:07:39,188 --> 01:07:40,504
[Fatal Influence's theme playing]

1280
01:07:40,538 --> 01:07:41,955
[Mike] Here are your winners,

1281
01:07:41,988 --> 01:07:45,605
-Fatal Influence.
-[Vic] But hey!

1282
01:07:45,638 --> 01:07:48,638
Lainey and Fallon on the outside.

1283
01:07:48,671 --> 01:07:51,188
[Booker T] This is business, dawg.
This is business.

1284
01:07:51,221 --> 01:07:54,404
-Come on.
-[Vic] Taking out Izzi Dame.

1285
01:07:54,438 --> 01:07:55,871
[Booker T] What do you expect?

1286
01:07:55,904 --> 01:07:57,071
What do you expect here?

1287
01:07:58,355 --> 01:07:59,805
A hand shake?

1288
01:07:59,838 --> 01:08:00,955
A "Congratulations"?

1289
01:08:02,671 --> 01:08:03,771
What are you thinking?

1290
01:08:04,705 --> 01:08:06,221
This is Fatal Influence.

1291
01:08:06,771 --> 01:08:09,921
[Vic] Well, I'm thinking
trouble is on the horizon.

1292
01:08:10,888 --> 01:08:13,021
-Not just tonight.
-[Booker T] Yeah!

1293
01:08:13,055 --> 01:08:14,288
But on Saturday.

1294
01:08:14,321 --> 01:08:16,705
[audience jeers]

1295
01:08:16,738 --> 01:08:17,921
Get her up!

1296
01:08:21,321 --> 01:08:23,471
[indistinct chatter]

1297
01:08:27,505 --> 01:08:30,171
[Vic] And Paxley,
with no friends right now.

1298
01:08:30,205 --> 01:08:31,321
Only enemies.

1299
01:08:31,354 --> 01:08:32,404
And look at Paxley go!

1300
01:08:33,705 --> 01:08:34,971
Dropping Reid.

1301
01:08:35,005 --> 01:08:36,938
-[Booker T] Whoa!
-Dropping Fallon.

1302
01:08:36,971 --> 01:08:37,988
[Jacy Jayne shouts]

1303
01:08:38,021 --> 01:08:41,738
-And one last move!
-[Booker T] Oh no!

-[shouts]
-[audience cheering]

1305
01:08:43,571 --> 01:08:47,304
Right down main street for Jacy Jayne.

1306
01:08:47,338 --> 01:08:50,121
-[Booker T] What the hell?
-[Vic] The field has been isolated.

1307
01:08:50,154 --> 01:08:53,255
Fatal Influence has been wiped out.

1308
01:08:53,288 --> 01:08:55,588
[The Culling's theme playing]

1309
01:08:55,621 --> 01:08:57,421
And Saturday.

1310
01:08:57,455 --> 01:09:01,971
Will it be a night
that will haunt Jacy Jayne forever?

1311
01:09:02,005 --> 01:09:05,288
Can Tatum Paxley become the women's
champion

1312
01:09:05,321 --> 01:09:09,721
Saturday at Halloween Havoc?

1313
01:09:18,588 --> 01:09:20,188
On the topic of championships,

1314
01:09:20,221 --> 01:09:23,838
there is the challenger
to the NXT championship.

1315
01:09:23,871 --> 01:09:25,804
No stranger to that gold.
He's held it twice.

1316
01:09:25,838 --> 01:09:26,938
That's Trick Williams.

1317
01:09:26,971 --> 01:09:30,904
He's looking to put pen to paper
with the champion, with our quarterback,

1318
01:09:30,938 --> 01:09:35,304
Ricky Saints, the official Halloween
Havoc contract signing, next.

1319
01:09:39,988 --> 01:09:43,304
[Vic] Back live once again
with our general manager, Ava.

1320
01:09:48,104 --> 01:09:53,904
This Saturday at Halloween Havoc,
two of the biggest superstars in NXT

1321
01:09:53,938 --> 01:09:58,471
go one-on-one for the first time ever,

1322
01:09:58,505 --> 01:10:01,355
with the NXT championship on the line.

1323
01:10:03,538 --> 01:10:08,105
Now, last week, backstage,
things got absolutely out of hand.

1324
01:10:08,138 --> 01:10:12,671
But I told both superstars, "Just keep it
together until the contract signing."

1325
01:10:13,271 --> 01:10:15,155
So let's make it official.

1326
01:10:15,188 --> 01:10:19,338
First, please welcome the challenger,
Trick Williams.

1327
01:10:20,071 --> 01:10:21,255
[tepid cheering]

1328
01:10:31,554 --> 01:10:32,688
[Booker] That's right.

1329
01:10:32,721 --> 01:10:34,438
[crowd chanting] Whoop that Trick!

1330
01:10:34,471 --> 01:10:35,371
[Booker] Oh, yeah!

1331
01:10:35,871 --> 01:10:36,738
That's Trick!

1332
01:10:37,505 --> 01:10:39,988
Check out that man right there.

1333
01:10:40,021 --> 01:10:44,671
Looking very, very debonair.
Looking to capture something

1334
01:10:44,705 --> 01:10:48,804
that belongs, quite frankly, to him.

1335
01:10:48,838 --> 01:10:53,271
And that is the NXT Championship.

1336
01:10:53,871 --> 01:10:54,855
Oh, yes!

1337
01:10:54,888 --> 01:10:57,054
Oh, yes! His time is coming.

1338
01:10:57,088 --> 01:11:01,238
Give it up. Stand up!
Stand up for that man.

1339
01:11:02,071 --> 01:11:07,005
[Vic] Trick Williams is looking
to make history on Saturday

1340
01:11:07,038 --> 01:11:11,238
by becoming a three-time NXT Champion.

1341
01:11:11,938 --> 01:11:13,138
[Booker] You damn right!

1342
01:11:16,721 --> 01:11:17,821
Uh-huh.

1343
01:11:17,855 --> 01:11:18,955
[crowd chanting]

1344
01:11:18,988 --> 01:11:19,871
That's right.

1345
01:11:20,405 --> 01:11:21,838
[Booker] Oh, yeah, man.

1346
01:11:22,455 --> 01:11:23,705
Oh, yeah, man.

1347
01:11:25,588 --> 01:11:26,855
I'm hyped up, dawg.

1348
01:11:27,471 --> 01:11:30,038
[Vic] Yeah, I'm down a few gummy bears,
I can see--

1349
01:11:30,071 --> 01:11:33,438
And the NXT Champion, Ricky Saints.

1350
01:11:34,054 --> 01:11:36,304
[walkout song playing]
This is the revolution.

1351
01:11:37,105 --> 01:11:38,804
[Booker] Ain't got nothing to say.

1352
01:11:50,721 --> 01:11:53,688
[Vic] This man has got moxie for days.

1353
01:11:58,421 --> 01:11:59,538
Carrying this brand.

1354
01:12:01,738 --> 01:12:08,021
Representing this brand as our leader.
Doesn't walk out on this brand.

1355
01:12:08,054 --> 01:12:10,488
Stand up for this man.

1356
01:12:11,321 --> 01:12:12,188
He is…

1357
01:12:13,405 --> 01:12:15,071
the NXT Champion.

1358
01:12:15,105 --> 01:12:17,205
He is the absolute.

1359
01:12:17,238 --> 01:12:19,488
He is Ricky Saints.

1360
01:12:25,655 --> 01:12:26,521
Yeah,

1361
01:12:35,971 --> 01:12:38,521
and listen to this place.

1362
01:12:38,554 --> 01:12:42,355
I can only imagine what it's
going to be like Saturday

1363
01:12:43,221 --> 01:12:45,721
in the desert at Halloween Havoc.

1364
01:12:54,905 --> 01:12:56,838
Like I said last week, Ricky,

1365
01:12:57,988 --> 01:12:59,738
I do things on my time.

1366
01:13:01,021 --> 01:13:04,271
I don't just go out running
just because somebody screams my name.

1367
01:13:04,304 --> 01:13:05,621
I wait for my moment.

1368
01:13:06,705 --> 01:13:08,655
I wait for my spotlight.

1369
01:13:09,888 --> 01:13:11,988
And that's why I am the main event.

1370
01:13:13,005 --> 01:13:16,088
But I guess that's our problem
with all this whole thing, huh?

1371
01:13:16,121 --> 01:13:20,071
I mean, Ricky, you're mad just because
even though you are the NXT, Champion,

1372
01:13:20,905 --> 01:13:23,038
Trick Williams
is still the man in NXT.

1373
01:13:23,071 --> 01:13:24,321
I'm still the main event.

1374
01:13:26,471 --> 01:13:28,121
That's why a couple of weeks ago

1375
01:13:28,155 --> 01:13:31,705
I left you hanging at Showdown
to prove to you one thing,

1376
01:13:31,738 --> 01:13:32,921
one thing, Ricky.

1377
01:13:33,938 --> 01:13:39,221
There's one man and one man only, who
could pick NXT up and put it on his back.

1378
01:13:39,255 --> 01:13:41,304
And his name is Trick Williams.

1379
01:13:44,088 --> 01:13:45,338
But don't get it twisted.

1380
01:13:46,121 --> 01:13:48,554
It ain't because I love NXT that much.

1381
01:13:48,588 --> 01:13:49,438
Let's be real.

1382
01:13:50,155 --> 01:13:52,221
I know owe NXT nothing.

1383
01:13:52,971 --> 01:13:55,538
I know owe TNA nothing.

1384
01:13:56,905 --> 01:13:59,988
I'm loyal to one man, and one man only.

1385
01:14:00,021 --> 01:14:01,388
Even without a title.

1386
01:14:01,421 --> 01:14:03,888
I am loyal to Trick Williams.

1387
01:14:04,888 --> 01:14:08,238
Trick Williams loves himself
some Trick Williams.

1388
01:14:10,371 --> 01:14:14,655
And since I love Trick Williams
and since Trick Williams loves me,

1389
01:14:14,688 --> 01:14:16,755
Imma do what's best
for Trick Williams

1390
01:14:16,788 --> 01:14:20,505
and become a three time,
excuse me, a three time,

1391
01:14:20,538 --> 01:14:21,388
what was that?

1392
01:14:21,421 --> 01:14:25,304
A three time, ooh yeah, NXT Champion.

1393
01:14:25,338 --> 01:14:26,488
Let's talk about it.

1394
01:14:32,304 --> 01:14:34,821
Go ahead and hurry up
and sign that for me, player,

1395
01:14:34,855 --> 01:14:37,038
because there's something I want to say.

1396
01:14:37,071 --> 01:14:39,121
I am a very emotional guy.

1397
01:14:39,155 --> 01:14:40,338
I wear it on my sleeve.

1398
01:14:40,371 --> 01:14:42,804
I own it.
There ain't nothing wrong with that.

1399
01:14:42,838 --> 01:14:46,021
I know exactly who I am
and I've never changed.

1400
01:14:46,054 --> 01:14:48,705
But can we say the same thing about you?

1401
01:14:50,788 --> 01:14:53,938
That title right there
can either make you complacent

1402
01:14:54,621 --> 01:14:56,438
or it can make you real ambitious.

1403
01:14:56,471 --> 01:14:58,155
For me, I have been more focused.

1404
01:14:58,188 --> 01:15:00,371
But what did the title do to you?

1405
01:15:01,071 --> 01:15:03,605
A guy who ushered in the "Whoop that" era.

1406
01:15:03,638 --> 01:15:08,688
And I think you can agree one of the most
exciting times here at NXT history.

1407
01:15:09,471 --> 01:15:10,821
But guess what, bro?

1408
01:15:10,855 --> 01:15:12,638
You lost the plot along the way.

1409
01:15:13,304 --> 01:15:15,688
You thought that you were
bigger than the brand.

1410
01:15:15,721 --> 01:15:17,321
You thought that you were bigger

1411
01:15:17,355 --> 01:15:20,005
than all these people here
and everybody in the back.

1412
01:15:20,688 --> 01:15:23,205
You thought that you were
bigger than the title.

1413
01:15:24,571 --> 01:15:25,671
To me,

1414
01:15:25,705 --> 01:15:29,138
you were already ready
to leave this place a long time ago.

1415
01:15:29,171 --> 01:15:30,771
Whoa, whoa.
Hold on there, Ricky.

1416
01:15:30,804 --> 01:15:32,554
Hold on there, Ricky. I mean, look around.

1417
01:15:32,588 --> 01:15:35,155
Look at everything that I've created, huh?

1418
01:15:35,705 --> 01:15:38,771
It must be hard for you
to admit, somebody like you,

1419
01:15:39,455 --> 01:15:43,088
who's been grinding, what?
Decades on the indies?

1420
01:15:44,421 --> 01:15:45,755
Look at me, Ricky.

1421
01:15:45,788 --> 01:15:46,888
Look at me.

1422
01:15:46,921 --> 01:15:49,355
Do I look like I belong on the indies?

1423
01:15:50,521 --> 01:15:51,388
Hell, no.

1424
01:15:51,988 --> 01:15:53,538
Damn it, I look Hollywood.

1425
01:15:53,571 --> 01:15:55,171
I look good, Ricky.

1426
01:15:55,205 --> 01:15:56,521
I look like a champion.

1427
01:15:57,438 --> 01:15:59,738
Before this gets out of control,
Ricky, please.

1428
01:15:59,771 --> 01:16:00,721
Hold on now, Ricky.

1429
01:16:02,105 --> 01:16:03,571
When I look in your eyes,

1430
01:16:04,721 --> 01:16:05,938
I don't see a champion.

1431
01:16:06,554 --> 01:16:07,821
I see someone cosplaying.

1432
01:16:07,855 --> 01:16:11,238
Doing the best,
doing the best they can

1433
01:16:11,271 --> 01:16:13,938
to become a stunt double
for Trick Williams.

1434
01:16:15,554 --> 01:16:17,355
But let me help you out, Ricky.

1435
01:16:17,388 --> 01:16:19,955
There's no man alive,
no man on God's green earth

1436
01:16:19,988 --> 01:16:23,121
that can replace Trick Williams.
At your very best,

1437
01:16:23,155 --> 01:16:24,471
you could be my stand in.

1438
01:16:25,621 --> 01:16:27,938
And since you're standing in my way,

1439
01:16:27,971 --> 01:16:30,655
I'm gonna whoop your ass
for that NXT Championship.

1440
01:16:32,605 --> 01:16:37,088
And this absolute era
will be absolutely over.

1441
01:16:39,021 --> 01:16:40,038
Great. This is great.

1442
01:16:40,071 --> 01:16:42,671
I love it. The same guy
who walked into PC one day

1443
01:16:42,705 --> 01:16:45,505
hoping to make it. Now your ass
can barely fit through the door.

1444
01:16:45,538 --> 01:16:47,855
Don't talk to me about
grinding on the indies

1445
01:16:47,888 --> 01:16:50,288
because the stuff that I've
been through your ass

1446
01:16:50,321 --> 01:16:52,271
would've folded like the shirt you got on.

1447
01:16:52,304 --> 01:16:53,855
You understand what I'm saying?

1448
01:16:55,605 --> 01:17:00,838
One thing about me is I could never,
ever be a Trick Williams replacement.

1449
01:17:00,871 --> 01:17:03,588
I'm the blueprint.
You're trying to be like me.

1450
01:17:03,621 --> 01:17:06,238
I am smoother.
I am silkier.

1451
01:17:06,271 --> 01:17:09,071
I'm more stylish than you ever will be.

1452
01:17:09,105 --> 01:17:12,638
I am the man that is the face of NXT.

1453
01:17:12,671 --> 01:17:13,855
Do you understand me?

1454
01:17:13,888 --> 01:17:16,721
This is my house.
I'm locked in.

1455
01:17:16,755 --> 01:17:18,671
Come Saturday, guess what?

1456
01:17:18,705 --> 01:17:22,988
Your ass is locked out
because I am absolute Ricky Saints.

1457
01:17:26,338 --> 01:17:27,571
You wanna go right now?

1458
01:17:30,521 --> 01:17:32,171
[Vic] Oh, cheap shoot from Trick.

1459
01:17:32,205 --> 01:17:34,538
[Booker] Oh, yeah, here we go, baby.

1460
01:17:34,571 --> 01:17:36,155
Fight just broke out.

1461
01:17:36,188 --> 01:17:37,938
[Vic] Yeah, you can say that again.

1462
01:17:38,438 --> 01:17:41,855
Trick Williams with a sucker punch.
Call it what it was.

1463
01:17:41,888 --> 01:17:44,471
-Sucker punch!
-[Booker] This is about the business, man.

1464
01:17:44,505 --> 01:17:46,671
This is about that championship.
This is about a--

1465
01:17:46,705 --> 01:17:48,038
[both] Whoa!

1466
01:17:48,721 --> 01:17:51,438
[Vic] And an early treat for Trick!

1467
01:17:53,538 --> 01:17:55,088
You want this?

1468
01:17:55,121 --> 01:17:56,155
Huh?

1469
01:17:57,138 --> 01:17:58,588
You want this right here?

1470
01:17:59,871 --> 01:18:01,171
This is it.

1471
01:18:04,121 --> 01:18:05,338
[Vic] Booker.

1472
01:18:05,371 --> 01:18:07,755
It has been unpredictable.
