00:13Last week, I shocked the damn world.
00:16I'm partially deaf.
00:18It affects my speech.
00:20It affects the way that I talk.
00:22When I eliminated Ethan Page and Sean Spears,
00:25I heard y'all going crazy.
00:27I don't want to just be known as the deaf kid.
00:30So yeah, Battleground, I'm the underdog.
00:33I'm facing a dominant champion.
00:35Obafemi, cause last week they didn't give me a shot.
00:38But look what happened.
00:40But I'm ready to shock the world again.
00:42Enough of the sentimental crap.
00:45I gave Ricky his reality check.
00:47I'm gonna give you yours.
00:49A battle royal on a fluke.
00:52You can't beat Oba.
00:55You're not on my level.
00:57Put the contendership on the line tonight against me.
01:02You got me the match with Oba tonight because you wanted a bit of advice.
01:05What better way to learn to go toe-to-toe with a former NXT champion.
01:10And you get to silence all of your doubters.
01:13Especially your biggest one.
01:15You're right, Charlie.
01:16You're on.
01:17Look, truthfully, I don't know if this is the right move.
01:20Tonight, you can face Ethan Page with your number one contendership.
01:24Our match with the NXT champion Obafemi is right now.
01:29Well, Book, let's get this thing fired up on a Tuesday.
01:33Appears to be the case per Ava.
01:35The number one contendership is on the line.
01:38As he's looking across Bookerette.
01:40Looks ready to feast.
01:42I'll tell you right back and only wonder what.
01:44Six over 400 pounds.
01:46But this goes, Corey, to all sizes.
01:48This could be a big upset.
01:50Take a look out here.
01:51You see heights.
01:52Wanted to have first-hand knowledge.
01:54Wow.
01:55Obafemi knows he will defend the NXT championship.
01:58See that, trying to take the young man's opportunity away.
02:00Oh.
02:01I didn't like that.
02:02This is one thing.
02:03I didn't think that Charlie Dempsey was going to stay so close.
02:05So, I'm looking forward to it.
02:07Watch out.
02:08Just think of all the knowledge, Charlie.
02:09It's a strategy to draw a big man in the deep waters.
02:13Control of this matchup.
02:14Dempsey, though, trying to turn things around as Charlie...
02:16Trying to take down Oba again.
02:18And this time he was.
02:19Another submission.
02:20Look, I'm looking at Charlie Dempsey.
02:21He came in with his strategies.
02:23Powering Dempsey and big...
02:24Oh, baby.
02:25Oh, baby.
02:26Oh, baby.
02:27The lights was Charlie Dempsey.
02:29Here in NXT.
02:30Potentially could be the case.
02:31I mean, every opportunity could be.
02:33Battleground in Booker.
02:34How significant is that moment tonight going to be?
02:38For that NXT championship match.
02:40See how Charlie is taking it to Oba.
02:42What's working of Obafemi?
02:43Dempsey going right back in.
02:45Wow!
02:46Wow!
02:47Shoulders down.
02:48Breaking the hole.
02:49Oh, baby.

17:51jordan graves particularly not fatal influence well intense stephanie the kid
18:05please guys i'll just skip over to graves really bats and eyelash it's like stephanie was custom built
18:11this is such a little degree is all in my substance put it in a pair look jordan
18:16great sure at the eye and said i am not by grace followed by another now is not the time to get
18:22cute great move tag made certainly one way tonight look at this athleticism oh baby jc jane and fallon
18:30have run things around here for quite some time not whining i can tell you this ever since fallon
18:35we're going around this time the care into the cover maybe trying to get a little bit of a bridge
18:41and another near fall fell hot and bothered no one's getting their skull crushed oh five seconds
18:47man he hasn't even started counting uh-oh jane coming right back in hitting was the juggernaut
18:53oh alan hanley though just dropped the dark angel influence taking over this matchup and then
19:00from the outside to the inside that was disrespectful listen i think booker's just he's
19:06caught up in his feelings you like that what is it just said it a minute ago the best division in all
19:12the professional wrestling i said that but if you go to it and you like everybody so i like this added
19:17oh jacy in the corner the cover and a kick out i don't think chase you were peers was just made
19:22official moments ago before battleground is on the outside making her way in she has done it all the
19:29only thing she has not done is a tag team competitor she's never found her footing it's the hardest job in all
19:35professional wrestling but their careers oh yes man four of those will make all row in the world of fatal
19:44influence fatal influence almost in cruise women's champion stephanie but care out of the way just in
19:53time oh kick to the face right now but care oh word big moment for stephanie but care who has a long
20:03the tag able to do it the juggernaut champion in challenger
20:12where she left off in the main event oh and hanley looking for here fantastic the question is can they
20:18pull it off this is a pivotal oh oh another the care got rot taking the most of it oh jordan took the
20:28bullet to the wolves big kick on the outside with jordan grace in position able to counter for the
20:36moment is grace down fallon and now entering into beast mode fatal influence suffers the fatal blow
20:45and she certainly did that did the juggernaut when an unstoppable force meets the devil the devil will
20:52always win because the nxt women's championship will be on the line grace but care battle the nxt
20:59women's championship on the line at battleground and i don't hey hey hey hey what's going on
