Transcript

00:00The following contest is a tag team match.

00:29The match scheduled for one fall, introducing first, the team of Zarya and the NXT Women's North American Champion, Sol Ruka!

00:45Well, we can call it any way we want to.

00:48This duo took matters into their own hands to try and help Tatum last week.

00:55Paxley prefers, though, her new friend.

00:58We're going to have a tag team match between all four of these women next on NXT.

01:02The NXT locker room lives in fear of Oba Femi.

01:10He's dominant.

01:12He's invincible.

01:13He's a titan.

01:14But did he look that way when he was in the ring with me?

01:17The NXT champion barely survived.

01:20And now I'm only one match away from the rematch that I want.

01:24And I know Oba, he's rooting for Inamora.

01:27Because he knows what's waiting at the bash if I get my hand raised tonight.

01:32Inamora, I'm going through you.

01:34And Oba Femi, you may be backed by destiny, but your destiny is mine.

01:40Truth will ultimately prevail.

01:43But there's pain, bringing it to light.

01:47And they're reporting, the team are Tatum Paxley, and the coolant, Izzy James.

02:13Look, I'm not one for conspiracies, but all signs are pointing to the culling,

02:20taking out the NXT tag team champions, Hank and Tank, last week.

02:25But we also saw Tatum Paxley get carried away by Zaruka last week

02:30to try and help Tatum Paxley.

02:33So, Graves, I toss it to you.

02:35Who do you think is more trustworthy?

02:38Is he Dame?

02:40Or Sol Ruka and Zarya?

02:41I don't know if trustworthy is the word that I would use,

02:44but let's talk about the culling.

02:45Let's be honest.

02:46They prey on the weak and the broken.

02:49That's where Tatum Paxley is.

02:50That's where she belongs.

02:53And while we're at it, to be perfectly honest,

02:55I don't know if I trust anything about Zarya.

02:58To me, she's just riding the coattails of Sol Ruka.

03:01And for some reason, she's trying to convince Sol that they're best friends.

03:04But trust me, trust me, mark my words.

03:07Somewhere down the line, we're going to be talking about

03:09how did we see this coming?

03:11Zarya is going to stick it to Sol Ruka.

03:14You ever have a conversation with Zarya?

03:15Nope.

03:17Well, where are you jumping to conclude?

03:18Whoa, wait a minute.

03:23Zarya's on Izzy coming in.

03:24There we go.

03:26Well, I guess her friend, however you want to call it,

03:28but there's some of that teamwork there, Graves, from Zarya.

03:31I never said they weren't an effective team.

03:33I just said you couldn't trust her.

03:35Well, they got a very strong bond and stronger, don't you think, though,

03:38since Sol's win over the, for the women's North American title?

03:41Or do you think it's because Zarya has eyes on that championship?

03:45Yeah.

03:45Let's take another look at this exchange right here,

03:48this fantastic teamwork as it was.

03:50But you're 100% right, Vic.

03:53Keep your friends close.

03:54Keep your enemies closer.

03:55Zarya looks at that North American championship some kind of way.

03:59You ain't lying.

04:00There's a method to the madness, man, with Zarya.

04:04I feel the same way, man.

04:05You can't trust her.

04:07DTA.

04:07Great minds.

04:08Great minds.

04:09Still to come, we will hear from the number one contender

04:12to the NXT Women's Championship, Jordan Grace.

04:14Grace Jane, WWE Evolution, week from Sunday in Atlanta.

04:18How is this for teamwork from a first-time team?

04:21Tatum Paxley and Izzy Dame working extremely well together.

04:25That is also hard to argue, Izzy Dame bringing of sorts

04:30some dowels to Tatum Paxley last week.

04:33This is a peace offering, Vic.

04:34It's like when you hand out candy to the people around ringside

04:37so they cheer for you.

04:38That's 100% why I do it.

04:40Izzy Dame's still in control of this matchup,

04:43tagging right back in Tatum Paxley.

04:45And as I was mentioning, the NXT Women's Championship

04:47to be defended at Evolution.

04:49First Evolution in seven years.

04:50Is the champion the last time as floating over

04:53is the champion into a kickout?

04:55The champion was Kairi Sane.

04:57She did not leave Evolution NXT Women's Champion on that night.

05:01We will find out if J.C. Jane can leave champion

05:03coming up in Atlanta.

05:05But Sol Ruka in control now of Tatum Paxley.

05:08Got to wonder what Sol, what Zarya's thinking in this match.

05:12They don't want to hurt Tatum Paxley.

05:14They're trying to help Tatum Paxley.

05:16Yeah, Tatum Paxley's looking for a friend,

05:18and I think she's found one in Izzy Dame.

05:20Izzy Dame has just found somebody

05:22that she can use at the end of the day.

05:25So everybody get what they want.

05:26I like it.

05:27I like the agreement.

05:28Pax able to kick out of it.

05:30You know, Booker, though,

05:31why would Tatum choose evil over good?

05:35You know, I wouldn't say it's evil.

05:37Good and evil and totally subjective.

05:39What do you mean?

05:39Because what it is.

05:40You're telling she has great intentions, Izzy Dame?

05:43Someone who tore the family apart?

05:45Someone who was able to manipulate a situation against Sean Spears,

05:49the North American Championship, several months ago?

05:51I see a woman who lent a helping hand, as you so eloquently put it,

05:55to someone who was down on their luck.

05:57Someone who needed a little help, a little motivation.

05:59Izzy Dame into the cover, hooks the leg.

06:02And above all else,

06:03I think Izzy Dame understands what this game is all about.

06:06Booker, can you help me out?

06:07I mean, you put that great.

06:09I mean, that was a great soliloquy that you just put out right there.

06:13Can you spell soliloquy?

06:14He used it properly.

06:16It doesn't matter.

06:17I'll tell you what, Graves is good.

06:18Graves can sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman in white gloves.

06:22A ketchup popsicle.

06:24And now, big right hand from Soul,

06:27firing right back on Izzy, who fires back in her own right.

06:30And it's almost as if these...

06:32Oh, look at these women are fighting over Tata Paxley,

06:35who just made a tag.

06:36I don't think someone ever realized.

06:37No, no, no, no, no.

06:38They're trying to fight this saber.

06:39They're trying to help her crossbody in.

06:41Tata Paxley.

06:42And a kick out.

06:44Listen, you know what?

06:45Sol Ruka needs to be concerned about the North American Championship.

06:48You know what Zara needs to be concerned about?

06:50How to take the North American Championship

06:52or how to put herself in the NXT women's title picture.

06:55Boom.

06:55Crossbody, a thing of beauty from Tatum Paxley,

06:58who is wildly talented in the small instances when she gets her head right.

07:03Well, as we also focus in on this, too, Booker,

07:05regardless of personal feelings as she just was tagged out of the matchup,

07:10Izzy Dame has certainly dominated the field since joining the Cup.

07:13Izzy Dame, I will call her the leader.

07:16Oh, no!

07:17She's been making all the power plays.

07:19If she can get a win tonight, definitely,

07:22definitely that would be a big, big, big, big, big checkmark.

07:25Let's just say that.

07:26X marks the spot.

07:27Dame to the outside.

07:28Tatum getting hoisted up.

07:29Oh, baby.

07:31I don't like this.

07:33Surfboard.

07:34Surfboard.

07:36One more time.

07:37Surfboard.

07:37One more time.

07:38The charm right down on Izzy Dame.

07:40And now look at the power of Zarya just tossing out Tatum onto Izzy.

07:47Zoruka standing tall here on NXT.

07:50Don't say that again, bro.

07:52Penn and Teller Fool Us this Friday at 8, 7 central on The CW.

08:00Zarya, Zoruka been in control up until this moment.

08:03And, oh, Tatum, Paxley, Izzy Dame making their presence known,

08:10making it felt as Spears, Nico Vance on the outside, cheering on Tatum.

08:14Booker, what do you think the rest of the culling thinks of Tatum?

08:17I think they're thinking she's the right person for the job.

08:20Tatum, Paxley could be the newest member of the culling.

08:23Especially, like I say, we get a victory tonight.

08:26Everything's lovely, man.

08:27Spears, Vancey, insurance, policy on the outside.

08:30Zarya able to get out of the way for a moment.

08:33Trying to showcase that power.

08:34Nice counter by Tatum.

08:36And Tatum with a nice drop.

08:38Wow.

08:38Think about what the addition of Tatum, Paxley could mean for the culling.

08:42We see them grow stronger.

08:43They're switching pieces in and out to maximize their effectiveness.

08:47Look at this.

08:48This is tremendous teamwork.

08:49Beautiful teamwork.

08:50From Izzy and Tatum.

08:51Diabolical.

08:52So you agree with what Booker said, that the culling has only gotten stronger in recent weeks.

08:58Short arm, clothesline, hook of the leg, and ear fall.

09:00When you find a way to appeal to the broken, to the weakened, and you can unite them,

09:05and you can use the things that broke them to strengthen them,

09:08you are creating a very, very dangerous group of human beings.

09:12Beautiful for them.

09:13We're not playing Scrabble here, Booker.

09:15You don't get more points for using it twice.

09:17Izzy gifted some dolls to Tatum.

09:19Graves, maybe that's your point.

09:20That's all it takes, putting Tatum's heart back together.

09:23Well, that's what I was trying to get.

09:24It was symbolic.

09:25Oh!

09:26Oh!

09:26It's not.

09:27It was symbolic.

09:27That was symbolic, too.

09:29It'd be like if I bought you a tube of your favorite, honey,

09:31because we didn't have a great show.

09:32Look at Tatum, Paxley.

09:33Oh, baby!

09:35Oh, baby!

09:36Two to the half.

09:37Hook of the leg.

09:38Will it be enough?

09:39And a near fall.

09:40Beautiful.

09:41Some of our leg drops.

09:43For Tatum, Paxley, partners, friends have left her in the past.

09:47Some unexpected.

09:48Maybe, let me, I'll look at it the other way.

09:50Maybe, just maybe, she found a true friend, Booker, in Izzy Day.

09:54Let me tell you right now.

09:56Tatum Paxley has a lot of talent.

09:57I think that Cully can really, truly hold in on that talent and get the best of Tatum Paxley

10:03out of the middle of the week.

10:05That's the way I'm feeling.

10:06You got a lot of experience.

10:07Think of the value inside the mind of Sean Spears.

10:10This is a man who's been there, done that, around the world, case of success, sulked in failure.

10:16Hook of the leg.

10:17Off the Instagram.

10:19Spears is a wealth of knowledge.

10:21And when you take these people, again, who, for all intents and purposes, are in a dark spot in their life,

10:26Spears has figured out how to maybe manipulate is the right word, but build them back up.

10:31You know what I call it, right?

10:33The GPS.

10:34Just put in the information.

10:36Just log in your coordination, and he will get you there.

10:39That's maybe.

10:40Oh, yes.

10:41Coordinates.

10:42That's what I meant to say.

10:43Who the hell uses a GPS?

10:44You use maps now these days.

10:46I got a GPS.

10:46You got Tom Tom in your car?

10:47I got Waze.

10:48Oh!

10:49Yes.

10:51Well, right now, Tatum Paxley finding ways to continue this matchup and for the Culling.

10:56A tag was made.

10:57Izzy Dayne back in.

10:58And this tangible.

11:00Wow.

11:00Zarya got the knees up just in time.

11:02Tag.

11:03And here comes a women's North American champion who's finding her own ways to turn the tables in this matchup.

11:09Yes, Izzy.

11:10In the nick of time, too, because Zarya is feeling it.

11:13A little Home Alone action right here.

11:15Taking down, running right back around.

11:17Wow.

11:17Right to the face, in control.

11:22Come on, Izzy.

11:24Izzy running it.

11:26Tag.

11:26Man, that's a unique tag for Zarya.

11:30Zarya was just able to get out of the matchup, but nonetheless, working like a wild machine.

11:34That's a wild machine.

11:34The old Ruka just needed a solid base to launch that attack.

11:37Zarya now has Izzy scooped up.

11:40Oh, double-up tag team action right here.

11:45Going for the big, this could be the coup d'etat.

11:47Oh, man.

11:48With a little extra twist, into the cover goes Zarya, who is legal for her team, and running off the bat, breaking it up, was Tatum.

11:58This is a new side of Paxley, we've never seen before, and I hate to admit it, up until now, it's because of Izzy Damon the Culler.

12:07Because Tatum Paxley has so much talent, and it's just about owning that talent, and breaking it out, right now.

12:13Zarya, you're going for a picture.

12:14No!

12:14Code breaker by Izzy, and you know Izzy right now.

12:17If you're looking for Tatum, there's no Tatum.

12:19Where the hell is she?

12:20What do you mean, where the hell is she?

12:22It's just Zarya dropped a second ago, and Sol Ruka, she is legal, up over, lands on her feet, and, oh, unique offense, right to the spine.

12:31Oh!

12:32Tatum just saved Izzy!

12:33Zarya just pierced Sol!

12:35That's not what Zarya's intentions were!

12:40Are you sure about that?

12:42Tatum has just shown her true colors, who she sided with.

12:47She's crazy like a fox, Vic, that's what this is.

12:51She's crazy, she's conniving.

12:53She's not crazy, she's crazy like a fox.

12:55Oh, baby!

12:56And she could be part of the culling, sit-down style, and Izzy just pinned the Women's North American Champion.

13:03Here are your winners, Tatum Paxley, and Izzy Dave!

13:10Take a look at this, a sight to behold for sure.

13:24Tatum Paxley shoving Izzy Dave out of Zarya's path.

13:29Zarya takes out Sol Ruka.

13:32And as Zarya tries to reconcile what just happened, Paxley takes care of business on the outside.

13:38Izzy Dave with a sky-high powerbomb on the inside.

13:43Nothing will bond a new team faster than a big-time win.

13:48Zarya's bodyinvestment is a great-time win.

13:51Zarya's bodybuilding is a great-time win.

13:54Zarya's bodybuilding is a great-time win.

14:00Zarya is a great-time win.

14:05Zarya looking up in heartbreak with the warm embrace of Izzy and Tatum and The Culling.
