00:01:17Ladies and gentlemen, the one, the only, the incredible Hulk Hogan!
00:01:44Looking at the size of your arms,
00:01:46I wish I had anything that big.
00:01:48I don't know how to do it!
00:01:50I take one look at you,
00:01:52you're taking me out of the ordinary.
00:01:56I want you laying me down to the dead and buried.

00:02:05The angels up in the clouds,
00:02:07are jealous, not what we've found.
00:02:09Something so wild for the ordinary.
00:02:13You got me kissing the ground,
00:02:15from your sanctuary.
00:02:17Shatter me what you've done,
00:02:19will never turn me to dust.
00:02:22The angels up in the clouds,
00:02:24are jealous, not what we've found.
00:02:27Hope takes hallelujah.
00:02:31He was the Babe Ruth of wrestling.
00:02:33A household name that became bigger than our sport.
00:02:36Idolized Hulk Hogan.
00:02:38We wanted to be him.
00:02:39Look at this!
00:02:40He snapped him!
00:02:41What day they take my breath away?
00:02:46Not your heart to obey,
00:02:48cause it's cold time to take.
00:02:50Watch us!
00:02:51What you gonna do?
00:02:52You're taking me out of the ordinary.
00:02:55I want you laying me down to the dead and buried.
00:02:59On the end of your night.
00:03:02Staying drunk on your fight.
00:03:04The angels up in the clouds,
00:03:07are jealous, not what we've found.
00:03:09Something so wild.
00:03:10I want you to do.
00:03:12You got me kissing the ground,
00:03:14on the sanctuary.
00:03:16You can call this,
00:03:18the New World Order of Wrestling, brother.
00:03:22The angels up in the clouds,
00:03:24are jealous, not what we've found.
00:03:27Hulk Hogan was the foundation
00:03:29for everything that we have today.
00:03:32The people related to Hulk Hogan.
00:03:35He made wrestling so entertaining.
00:03:40Just a hero to so many people.
00:03:43Oh, sorry for this loud.
00:03:44Look out!
00:03:45I want you to do it,
00:03:46静
00:04:13When I saw your light, I thought you had to die to fight
00:04:18Something so wild of the ordinary
00:04:20Each and every one of those Hulkamaniacs, I love you and thank you very much
00:04:25Out on the edge of the night, a strange one can move by
00:04:30And angels up in the clouds are jealous, no one we found
00:04:35Something so wild of the ordinary
00:04:38You got me kissing the crowd, crowd, sanctuary
00:04:41You got me when you talk, oh God, return me to God
00:04:47And angels up in the clouds are jealous, no one we found
00:05:11What up y'all, we in Houston, Texas, we got the glamour girl
00:05:19For the win, the glamour Blake Monroe
00:05:24Race it back, she's nuts, get her out of here
00:05:27No, no, no, right out of that steel chair
00:05:33We got a triple threat for the NXT championship
00:05:41Home of Femi defending the NXT title here against Josh Briggs, Yoshiki in Amora
00:05:46This is turning into a slugfest
00:05:49Ball from Grace, powerbomb, Femi once again overcomes the odds
00:05:55We got the Undertaker in the high, y'all
00:05:59You're a little too light in the ass to step to an OG
00:06:08You wanna dance with the devil
00:06:11I can flip that switch real quick
00:06:15When I do, I will make you famous
00:06:19I was born in Canada, but made in America
00:06:34And that gives me the honour
00:06:39Of bringing my nation
00:06:41Great pride
00:06:44This title should be held by somebody
00:07:01With dignity, honour, class, pride
00:07:05But you have none of those things
00:07:08But you know who has some of those deeds?
00:07:13Myself
00:07:13I'll see you next week
00:07:16Can't you get that sucker?
00:07:24Tonight we feel the fallout from Houston
00:07:27Welcome to NXT
00:07:29On the CW
00:07:31Presented by Progressive
00:07:34The North American title is on the line tonight
00:07:41Will Ethan Page retain
00:07:43Or can Santino Morella
00:07:45Turn the clock back
00:07:47And take a WWE championship
00:07:49To TNA
00:07:50It's our main event live tonight
00:07:52On NXT
00:07:53The following contest is scheduled for one fall
00:08:09Introducing first
00:08:10From Port St. Lucie, Florida
00:08:13Jada Parker
00:08:16Jada Parker has been telling everyone that will listen
00:08:21It is her time
00:08:23While she is facing a member of Fatal Influence
00:08:26And it is a big night
00:08:27For that trio
00:08:28With a pair of matches
00:08:30Tonight is a big night for Fatal Influence
00:08:36Jasmine, you want to call yourself a baddie?
00:08:38Well, now's your chance to prove it
00:08:40I got this
00:08:42I get deep in the night
00:08:47I get deep in the night
00:08:49Now we won't let you in
00:08:51Cause we hold all the light
00:08:54And we'll blind you and die
00:08:57And I'll never provide
00:08:59You can't see the day
00:09:01At the world point
00:09:03Representing Fatal Influence
00:09:06Jasmine Nix
00:09:15Announced today, this year's Universal Halloween Homes
00:09:33Well, you're saying that
00:09:38Oh, yeah
00:09:39I got to pop
00:09:40I got to pop my deck, man
00:09:41To get ready for this
00:09:42This button
00:09:43Behold
00:09:44Like a Steven
00:09:45Pot of Neckbone
00:09:46Dog
00:09:47Oh, yeah
00:09:48Well, there is Jada Parker
00:09:50Great
00:09:51What is the missing ingredient
00:09:53From Jada Parker
00:09:54Since he's talking about Pot of Neckbone
00:09:56I don't know that Jada Parker's missing anything, Vic
00:09:59I think it's a matter of time
00:10:00I think if Miss Parker can stay the course
00:10:02Continue to do what she's been doing
00:10:04Her career is gonna go upward and onward
00:10:06Can I add to that?
00:10:07Sure
00:10:08I mean, Jada Parker can compete with anybody
00:10:11In that locker room
00:10:12But it's about level
00:10:13She gots to be ready
00:10:15Because it's about level
00:10:16Am I right?
00:10:17Am I right, Brady?
00:10:18Absolutely, Booker
00:10:20Well, Booker, how can Jada start to
00:10:22Re-establish herself in our women's division?
00:10:25I don't think she's already established
00:10:27She is established
00:10:28But I don't think it's something that
00:10:29She needs to do
00:10:30She just needs to actually be
00:10:31In the right place
00:10:32At the right
00:10:33Oh!
00:10:34Into training
00:10:35Into training
00:10:36This lady that big right hand
00:10:37I love it
00:10:38Well, she went face to face
00:10:39With our champion
00:10:40So did the last leg
00:10:41We'll face Fallon Henley
00:10:42Later on tonight
00:10:43Chats to Nick
00:10:44Big kick across the face
00:10:45And women kicking off tonight
00:10:46As Nick's into the cover
00:10:47Hook of the leg
00:10:48And in here for a grave
00:10:49You had quite the eight-woman showcase
00:10:51Last night on Raw
00:10:52Absolutely
00:10:53Still feeling the fallout back
00:10:54From Evolution
00:10:55As we bear record SummerSlam
00:10:57Unbelievable eight-woman tag team matchup
00:10:59On Raw last night
00:11:01Well, so much is going on
00:11:02In the women's division
00:11:03Across WWE
00:11:04We're hoping to get an update
00:11:05On the condition of Jordan Grace
00:11:06We understand she is not here tonight
00:11:08Due to that DDT on the steel chair
00:11:10Covering it was almost
00:11:12Enough, but not quite enough
00:11:14Of course that DDT
00:11:15On that chair
00:11:16Happening right here
00:11:17Graves
00:11:18Last week courtesy
00:11:19Of Blake Monroe
00:11:20Certainly
00:11:21Send our best wishes
00:11:22To Jordan Grace
00:11:23As she recovers
00:11:24From the brutality
00:11:25Of the glamour
00:11:26But right now
00:11:27It's all about
00:11:28Miss Parker
00:11:29Yes
00:11:30And Jasmine Nicks
00:11:31And Book to your point
00:11:32About the levels
00:11:33And Jada can find that next gear
00:11:34That one last top gear
00:11:36That's all that's separating her
00:11:37From the top of the mountain
00:11:38In NXT
00:11:39Fair point
00:11:40Just going to show the competition
00:11:41As well here in NXT
00:11:42Oh!
00:11:43As well as just across the board
00:11:44The ladies are taking over
00:11:46Hey, let's get credit where it's due
00:11:48I haven't seen Jasmine Nicks
00:11:49Look this dangerous
00:11:50In quite some time
00:11:51Looks like she's adding
00:11:52A few new wrinkles to her game
00:11:53Certainly prepared for tonight
00:11:54In Miss Parker
00:11:55Both these women
00:11:56Trying to break through
00:11:57The door here in NXT
00:11:59And Jasmine Nicks
00:12:00Taking it right now
00:12:01The baddie
00:12:02The baddie
00:12:03Honey Biscotti
00:12:04All of that man
00:12:06Well, let's talk about this Book
00:12:07I'm sure you think
00:12:08That Nicks should be looking up
00:12:09To somebody
00:12:10Like the Rockstar
00:12:11I mean, of course
00:12:12I mean, look at the success
00:12:14That JCJ has had here at NXT
00:12:17What's on my shoulder?
00:12:19What is that?
00:12:20What is that?
00:12:21Two different channels
00:12:22Two different companies
00:12:23But Braves, to your point
00:12:24Look at this submission
00:12:25By Jasmine Nicks
00:12:26Jasmine Nicks
00:12:27Almost with a modification
00:12:28On the Muda lock
00:12:29Doesn't have the leg trap
00:12:30Of Jada Parker
00:12:31But still incredibly
00:12:32Effective
00:12:33Pranking on the neck
00:12:34I wonder how Jasmine feels though
00:12:36Book about Jason just throwing her
00:12:37And Fallon Henley
00:12:38Under the bus
00:12:39Volunteering her teammates
00:12:40Here tonight
00:12:41It's not about
00:12:42Throwing somebody under the bus
00:12:43See, you're looking at it
00:12:44Totally wrong, man
00:12:45It's about pulling your weight
00:12:47When you're part of influence
00:12:49You got to pull your weight, man
00:12:51Oh, nice counter
00:12:52Big right hand
00:12:53Love it
00:12:54Jasmine's firing right back
00:12:55I don't know if you want to get in a firefight
00:12:57With Miss Parker
00:12:58And certainly both these women
00:13:00Want to be in the championship
00:13:01Title picture
00:13:02Yes
00:13:03When NXT heads to Philadelphia
00:13:04Hook of the leg
00:13:05Off the Knicks kick
00:13:06And a near fall
00:13:07Can somebody put some respect on
00:13:08On the NYX tonight
00:13:10Please
00:13:11Please
00:13:12Please
00:13:13Well, right now
00:13:14When you're taking a look at
00:13:15Jada Parker
00:13:16Able to
00:13:17Maybe soften that blow
00:13:18For just a moment
00:13:19Saw it coming
00:13:20Student of the game
00:13:21Trying to stay in contention
00:13:24For that championship opportunity
00:13:26Down the line
00:13:27I understand that
00:13:28Outwardly it seems
00:13:29There could be a little turmoil
00:13:30Within Fatal Influence
00:13:31But let's
00:13:32Let's call a spade a spade here
00:13:33Jasmine Nix is able to sit
00:13:35Under the learning tree
00:13:36Of the champ champ
00:13:37The double champ
00:13:38Oh
00:13:39Wow
00:13:40Wow
00:13:41If Jasmine can't pick up
00:13:42A few tricks along the way
00:13:43I don't know what
00:13:44It's gonna take
00:13:45Well that last
00:13:46Big nasty elbow
00:13:47Could've knocked Jasmine Nix
00:13:48All the way back to West Virginia
00:13:49Where she was a soccer star
00:13:50She's certainly not on the field anymore
00:13:52She's standing in the ring
00:13:54With Miss Parker
00:13:55Oh baby
00:13:56I feel the need to clarify
00:13:57She went to the University of West Virginia
00:13:59Because she still has all of her team
00:14:00Wait a minute guys
00:14:01Wait a minute
00:14:02Oh
00:14:03Oh
00:14:04Here we go high step

00:14:21Here is your winner
00:14:22Jada Parker
00:14:25Oh
00:14:26You see the look
00:14:27Graves on the face
00:14:28Of the double champion
00:14:30Certainly J.C. J.W.
00:14:31Not too pleased
00:14:32That's amazing
00:14:33Miss Parker
00:14:34Unleashed and hypnotic
00:14:36Rocking the skull
00:14:38Of Jasmine Nix
00:14:39And it might be a long ride home tonight
00:14:42For Miss Nix
00:14:43Oh this might be a long
00:14:45Long night
00:14:46For Fatal Influence
00:14:48And you can see
00:14:49J.C.J. not thrilled

00:18:02Try Trick Williams
00:18:04Or try the biggest box office draw NXT or TNA has to offer
00:18:09Which it happens to be Trick Williams
00:18:11Now look here dog
00:18:15We already did this dance here before
00:18:19And we know how that turned out the last time
00:18:21And the crazy thing about it is
00:18:23Trick Williams is hotter now than ever
00:18:25So I suggest you mind your business while grown folk talking
00:18:30Trick trick trick
00:18:32Bro
00:18:33Slow down
00:18:34You coming out here with all this big dog energy
00:18:40Going damn well you just got your old ass chokeslam last week by the Undertaker right back to hell
00:18:47What you talking about?
00:18:48Hey hold on hold on hold on hold on
00:18:49Cause that's crazy cause I ain't deserve that right there Javon
00:18:52But you right
00:18:54I did get slammed by the Undertaker
00:18:56But the fact still remains I'm still the TNA champion
00:18:59Hold on I'm still the biggest thing in NXT
00:19:03Hold on I'm still the biggest thing in TNA
00:19:06Hold on the biggest thing you can do wrong is try Trick Williams
00:19:10Let's talk about that
00:19:11Oh
00:19:12Oh
00:19:13Oh okay my bad my bad
00:19:15Um
00:19:16I wasn't even talking about your ass gang
00:19:18I was
00:19:19I was actually talking about uh
00:19:22The NXT champion
00:19:24Oba
00:19:25Femi
00:19:29Okay, okay
00:19:30Hold on hold on
00:19:31Cause here you go you disrespecting me again that's cool
00:19:34You could be talking about Oba
00:19:36Femi
00:19:37But the truth is Oba
00:19:39Femi
00:19:40Wishing he was Trick Willie
00:19:41Let's talk about that
00:19:43Cause we all seen last week
00:19:45He had lust in his eyes
00:19:47He wishes he had this here title that I got on here on my shoulder
00:19:51Let's talk about it
00:19:52And since he won it so bad
00:19:55I think I'm gonna take what he has
00:19:57And make myself
00:19:59A two time champion
00:20:01Watch out JC James
00:20:03Trick Willie coming to the top right next to you
00:20:05Taking over both brands
00:20:07And that's where we have a problem
00:20:10Because if you get in my way of that NXT championship
00:20:13I have no problem arresting your ass from the equation
00:20:17And that's that
00:20:18And that's nice
00:20:23Hey yo
00:20:24Trick
00:20:25Don't you dare let that young whippersnapper get under your skin like this man
00:20:30And as crazy as it is for me to say this
00:20:34Javon
00:20:35You right dog
00:20:37You should be calling out Oba Femi
00:20:39But Trick Williams
00:20:41Is on a whole different level than you dog
00:20:43Let's talk about it
00:20:45Now you see
00:20:47Undertaker gave the right advice
00:20:49He unfortunately gave it to the wrong person
00:20:53See you don't quite understand what it takes to be a champion just yet
00:20:57See some people have a very special connection with the WWE Universe
00:21:04Huh
00:21:06They leave the crowd captivated every night
00:21:09Huh
00:21:11But then often times they leave themselves empty handed
00:21:13Now these are just straight facts
00:21:15Coming from the greatest North American champion ever
00:21:19Ever
00:21:21Ooh yeah
00:21:23And
00:21:24A three time world champion
00:21:27Now you are going to have a great journey towards a championship
00:21:32Unfortunately it is a long
00:21:35Long ways away
00:21:38You definitely gonna get close to Trick Williams because
00:21:41The high rise is gonna stop you dead in your tracks
00:21:44All right
00:21:50All right, all right, I see where this is going
00:21:53Well if I'm gonna start
00:21:55I'm gonna start tonight
00:21:57And I'm gonna start with Wes
00:21:59And uh, I'm gonna go, I'll fight
00:22:01Oh!
00:22:03Javon threw in the first punch but
00:22:06He certainly outnumbered Booker
00:22:08Man that throws the first punch is a man that have run out of ideas
00:22:11That's what I say
00:22:12Oh!
00:22:15Javon's in all types of trouble right now
00:22:18Oh yes!
00:22:19Got in the grasp of the high rise
00:22:21Oh no!
00:22:23Oh!
00:22:24A lethal!
00:22:26cardiac kick
00:22:31Hey yo!
00:22:32I'm gonna go and talk to Ava and get the same pop in the night
00:22:34So I can leave yo ass laid out one more again
00:22:38Oh we talked about what The Undertaker said last week
00:22:41Another dose of reality could be served up tonight.
00:22:48Well, speaking of tonight, these two men are gonna run it back.
00:22:53Tavion Heights wins.
00:22:55He is out of the NQCC.
00:22:58Dempsey, Heights, next on NXT.
00:23:11Fightin', I'ma be grindin', it's about legacy, yeah.
00:23:14It's about blood, it's about sweat, it'll never get to me.
00:23:17And in my time, many of my money is about legacy, yeah.
00:23:21My legacy, yeah.
00:23:23My legacy.
00:23:24And in my time, many of my money is about legacy, yeah.
00:23:28My legacy, it's a right.
00:23:30Mr. Chase said to go out for the biggest dogs in the yard.
00:23:32And the biggest dogs in our heart are the NXT Tag Team Champions.
00:23:37Are you sure about this?
00:23:38100%.
00:23:39Everybody knows you take out the champs, you get a match in the next few weeks.
00:23:42Guaranteed.
00:23:43Facts.
00:23:44I trust you, let's do this thing, all right?
00:23:45All right.
00:23:46In three.
00:23:47Wait, wait.
00:23:48How do we know they're in there?
00:23:50You didn't check!
00:23:51I just assumed that they would be in there!
00:23:52Let's freaking check!
00:23:53Hide, I'll look.
00:23:54Gosh!
00:23:59You're out!
00:23:59What are you doing, man?
00:24:01So they're definitely in there, and they definitely saw me.
00:24:04But what you gotta hurry, okay?
00:24:05Go, go, go.
00:24:06Count us down, huh?
00:24:07What?
00:24:08Wait, wait, wait.
00:24:09Are we going in on one, two, three, go?
00:24:11Or one, two, then go?
00:24:13One, two, three, then go.
00:24:15One, two.
00:24:15Okay, yeah, yeah.
00:24:16Come on, come on.
00:24:17One, two.
00:24:18Go!
00:24:19Beat it!
00:24:19What are you doing?
00:24:21What are you doing?
00:24:24What are you doing?
00:24:26We're gonna beat you in these chairs and get a tag title match.
00:24:29Why?
00:24:30Mr. Chase been telling us y'all was a big dog.
00:24:32Yeah.
00:24:33We're the big dogs, but you don't got a hit with chairs and you want a match.
00:24:35What did you do?
00:24:36Who's gonna ask?
00:24:37You want a title?
00:24:38Yeah, just ask.
00:24:39Just ask.
00:24:39Wait, really?
00:24:40Yeah.
00:24:41We love Mr. Chase.
00:24:42He's up and down a ton.
00:24:44If his prized pupils want to get a little silly and silly, let's go.
00:24:47Yeah.
00:24:48I mean, yeah, I'm down.
00:24:49We're having some food, but we can make this official for next week.
00:24:51Cool.
00:24:51Sure.
00:24:52No chairs, man.
00:24:53I appreciate that.
00:24:54What's this?
00:24:54What are you doing?
00:24:55What are you doing?
00:24:56Get your guys.
00:24:57What's going on?
00:24:58Hey, this shit.
00:24:59We're just gonna beat them with these chairs and get a tag.
00:25:01You were gonna what?
00:25:02I did not tell you.
00:25:03I know.
00:25:04I didn't say beat them with chairs.
00:25:09Guys, I am so sorry.
00:25:10It's okay.
00:25:11It's okay.
00:25:11We're gonna talk to Ava.
00:25:12We'll get this thing going for next week.
00:25:13Bye, guys.
00:25:14Yeah, thank y'all.
00:25:15Silly stuff.
00:25:16Don't worry about it.
00:25:17We got a title match.
00:25:18Yeah, dude.
00:25:19Apparently, if you just ask, it just happens.
00:25:21It's so easy.
00:25:22Be nice.
00:25:23Beat them with chairs.
00:25:26Why do I do this to myself?
00:25:27That's a fair question, to be honest.
00:25:29NXT is live in Orlando tonight, and you can stay up to date and entertain this week with
00:25:35WWE Podcasts.
00:25:36This week's lineup is once again stacked with John Leifold joins The Undertaker on Six Feet
00:25:40Under, and John Cena joins Stephanie McMahon on What's Your Story.
00:25:44You don't want to miss a second of any WWE Podcasts as we move closer to this weekend's
00:25:49Summer Slam.
00:26:08The quality test is scheduled for one fall.
00:26:12Making their way to the ring, accompanied by Red Sinclair, representing no-quarter catch
00:26:17crew.
00:26:18First, Charlie Dempsey!
00:26:24And his opponent, Tavion Heitz!
00:26:29Braves, let's go back.
00:26:30It was July 8th.
00:26:32The last time these two met one-on-one.
00:26:33Is Heitz making another mistake?
00:26:35I don't know that that's the case, but time will tell.
00:26:38Here we see Charlie Dempsey reminding Tavion Heitz, sometimes you have to find that other
00:26:44gear.
00:26:44You have to get downright ruthless.
00:26:46Glenn Sinclair couldn't bear to stand anymore, and the W went to Dempsey.
00:26:51Tavion, if you win, you're on your own.
00:26:56You're solo, but if Charlie wins, you stay in the catch crew, and you do it with a smile
00:27:05on your face.
00:27:07Good?
00:27:08Well, as this one gets ready to start, it was also WWE Hall of Famer and LFG coach Bubba
00:27:17Ray, who spoke up last week and said, this issue needs a conclusion, not a controversy.
00:27:23Booker, do you agree, or do you disagree?
00:27:25I'm not going to speak on anything, Bubba Ray.
00:27:28Okay, well, I'll take his name out of the equation.
00:27:30Do you agree that these two finally need to settle it?
00:27:33Yeah, yeah, I mean, I think so.
00:27:35I mean, Tavion Heights want to be a man on his own, he's going to have to go out there
00:27:38and go do Charlie Dempsey tonight, hoping this matchup right here in front of all these
00:27:42people.
00:27:42Tavion Heights wins, he is out of the NQCC.
00:27:46Some would say it was a controversial ending in their first encounter.
00:27:49I think it was just Renn Sinclair showing a little bit of, well, sympathy towards her
00:27:53friend, her teammate, Tavion Heights.
00:27:55Listen, I believe Tavion Heights is destined for great things.
00:27:58Yes!
00:27:58The guy's an unbelievable athlete, but so is Charlie Dempsey as he's reminding Heights
00:28:02right now.
00:28:02Now, I'm curious as to what the arrangement is within the NQCC.
00:28:05Why can't Tavion Heights just take a hike?
00:28:08Why is he beholden to Charlie Dempsey?
00:28:10It might be like my reference, because he makes the whole, a few payments.
00:28:13Ah, okay.
00:28:15Dempsey's getting some on the back end.
00:28:16It's residual.
00:28:17Yeah, I get you.
00:28:17It's about checks and championships.
00:28:19That is, that is.
00:28:21He's learning.
00:28:21I'm finally getting it, Booker.
00:28:22It took about three, almost four years to get it in.
00:28:26Booker, what do you know Heights learned, though, from their last match as he enters into
00:28:30this second battle with Dempsey?
00:28:31No, no, no, no, Tavion, Tavion, he's a blue chipper, he's a hell of an athlete, but
00:28:33he cannot look at this like it's a friendly competition or anything like that.
00:28:37He has to take this serious, or he could get hurt just like last time.
00:28:41You're absolutely right, Booker, and I think that's gotta be the difference maker in this
00:28:44matchup, because Charlie Dempsey wasn't afraid to bend the rules.
00:28:47Yes!
00:28:48He wasn't afraid to flex how ruthless he can be, and that made all the difference
00:28:52last time.
00:28:54But to Tavion's credit, he didn't submit.
00:28:57Whoa.
00:28:58Again, it was Ickott.
00:28:59First one, he went right in the towel.
00:29:01Nice.
00:29:01Roll through.
00:29:02Showcasing some power.
00:29:04Guys, I'm receiving some breaking news right now from the desk of our general managers.
00:29:08A shoulder down and a kick out.
00:29:10This one is official.
00:29:11After what we just witnessed moments ago, Wesley Javon Evans, one-on-one here tonight.
00:29:16I don't like that.
00:29:17Javon Evans just wanna get his leg back.
00:29:19I don't like that.
00:29:20I don't like that.
00:29:22Well, that matchup is happening, and you know, I'm gonna let you dive into that a little
00:29:26bit more.
00:29:26You gotta be smarter.
00:29:27I mean, in a situation like that, the young OG, this kid's got all the talent in the world,
00:29:31but you gotta be smarter.
00:29:33There's Rens Sinclair looking on.
00:29:34Booker, I wanna double down on something you just said moments ago.
00:29:36What is wrong with Heights, though?
00:29:38Just wanting to stand on his own two feet, wanting to break away, wanting to be out on his own.
00:29:43You know, I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
00:29:44I mean, Tavion and I had a chance to go into Japan.
00:29:46And competing against some of the best in the world.
00:29:49And that right there can make you have that feeling to want to just go out there,
00:29:53break out, and do it on your own.
00:29:55I get it.
00:29:55I get it.
00:29:57Swing and a miss.
00:29:58Dempsey coming right back in.
00:29:59Both men with the same thought.
00:30:01Man.
00:30:02Crash and burn.
00:30:04Who walks away with the victory?
00:30:06If it's Tavion Heights, he's out of the NQCC here on NXT.
00:30:16Battle continuing between Tavion Heights, Charlie Dempsey is a shoulder down.
00:30:29And this is a unique position, though, for Charlie Dempsey, because he's in there.
00:30:33There's another pitting predicament, another kick out.
00:30:35He's in there with an Olympian who can match him on the mat, some would say.
00:30:40From a grappling perspective, you're absolutely right.
00:30:42But this is sports entertainment, pro wrestling, whatever label you choose to put on it.
00:30:46And Charlie Dempsey has grown up around this.
00:30:48Charlie Dempsey is an expert.
00:30:50Look at this, fantastic.
00:30:53I don't even know what to call that.
00:30:54Pitting combination, Tavion Heights is executed.
00:30:56It was unique because not only did he have the shoulders on, he still had a front face
00:31:00lock on, it looked like, which is really torquing and cranking the neck of Charlie Dempsey.
00:31:04But now you talk about getting cranked and torqued.
00:31:08Look at that.
00:31:08Impact from Heights.
00:31:09That's the part of pro wrestling that Gravy was talking about right there, being able to
00:31:13use the furniture just a little bit.
00:31:16I love it.
00:31:17Well, Graves, are the issues between these two too much for NQCC?
00:31:21I mean, let's dive into that just a little bit more.
00:31:23I don't understand the obsession in NXT with everybody being loyal to one another and having
00:31:28groups of friends.
00:31:29We saw the D'Angelo family melt down a few weeks ago.
00:31:32Same thing could happen with NQCC.
00:31:34This is NXT.
00:31:35There's still a lot of real estate to explore.
00:31:37You want to move up.
00:31:38You want to be on Raw.
00:31:39Come on here.
00:31:40You want to be part of SummerSlam this coming weekend.
00:31:42You want to be on the biggest events globally.
00:31:45And you sometimes have to leave your friends in the back.
00:31:48Let me play Devil the Advocate a little bit.
00:31:50I mean, you want to be a part of a group like NQCC.
00:31:56But what do they say?
00:31:57Iron, sharp, and iron.
00:31:58That's what you get with NQCC, man.
00:32:01Charlie Dempsey right now has changed things around in this match.
00:32:04And you see the strain on the left shoulder, almost like a hyperextension also to the elbow.
00:32:09And Dempsey going right around.
00:32:11I really believe it could benefit somebody like Charlie Dempsey being a part of NQCC because he's young.
00:32:17In this business, he just talked about being an Olympic wrestler.
00:32:20It's one thing to be a pro wrestler.
00:32:22That's something totally different.
00:32:23Are you seeing a different look in the eyes of heights or Dempsey for that matter in this matchup,
00:32:29seeing as this is round number two?
00:32:31Nice, German suplex.
00:32:32Beautiful, beautiful.
00:32:34That could be it.
00:32:34What I see right now is I see Charlie Dempsey, he wants to be right here, and he wants to break Davion Heights.
00:32:41He wants to separate him from his senses in this match just to prove that he's not ready.
00:32:46Looking for a cross-face chicken wing here, trying to get that right arm across the face.
00:32:51Trying to see if he can lock this in.
00:32:53I don't know, Graves, if he has the hands properly clasped or not.
00:32:56It appears that at least his fingertips were touching.
00:32:59Sometimes that's all it takes, but Davion Heights able to elbow his way out of the situation.
00:33:04Davion Heights certainly putting in a fight here tonight.
00:33:07Charlie, just how bad he wants to be on his own.
00:33:10Knee right to the stomach, into the cover.
00:33:12The air knocked out of Heights, but he's able to get that right shoulder just off the mat.
00:33:18Let's go, Davion!
00:33:20He's rallied to MCA, former Heritage Cup champion.
00:33:22Of course, the North American title will be defended in our main event.
00:33:26It'll be Ethan Caves, the champion, taking on the challenger, Santino Morella,
00:33:32who is the director of authority in TNA.
00:33:35Well, for the first time ever, a WWE championship head to TNA.
00:33:40We'll find out in our main event, but right now we're trying to find out,
00:33:43can Davion Heights be able to support Charlie Dempsey?
00:33:47This is what makes Dempsey so special.
00:33:49The man is vicious.
00:33:51He is ruthless.
00:33:53He's sadistic.
00:33:53Look at this, takedown.
00:33:55Almost a bit of a double wrist lock here, almost a premora applied by Dempsey.
00:34:00What's going through the mind of Ren Sinclair as she sees Davion Heights in pain once again?
00:34:06Can Heights get out of the NGCC?
00:34:13NXT Universe trying to rally.
00:34:15Davion Heights, the Olympic kid, looking to somehow break out of this hole,
00:34:20whether it's by getting to the rope or being able to power out,
00:34:23but Charlie Dempsey throughout the break has been going to work on that left shoulder of Davion Heights.
00:34:30And Heights is showing just how bad he wants to stand on his own two feet,
00:34:34takes out the legs at MC.
00:34:36Coming right back in with a drop kick.
00:34:37Heights bouncing right back up.
00:34:39It looks like he's got his second, maybe even his third win in the match.
00:34:43The adrenaline has begun to pulse through the veins of Davion Heights.
00:34:46Bad arm and all, unleashing an onslaught on Charlie Dempsey.
00:34:50I wonder what Miles Bourne maybe is thinking right now watching this match.
00:34:55And he was the first one to fight his way out of the NGCC.
00:34:59On my exclusive sit-down with Miles Bourne.
00:35:01That's still above here tonight.
00:35:03But a swing and miss by Dempsey.
00:35:04Oh, how the tables have turned.
00:35:07Whoa.
00:35:07To go back to July 8th in their first meeting.
00:35:11It was almost in that same area.
00:35:12Things went from bad to worse for Davion Heights.
00:35:16And Heights didn't learn from his mistake.
00:35:18And what we're seeing is Charlie Dempsey has been playing the long game,
00:35:21trying to lure in Davion Heights.
00:35:23And this is where Davion's inexperience could be a factor.
00:35:26And I'm looking at Ren Sinclair.
00:35:27I see the look in her eyes.
00:35:28Booker, Ren's got to stay out of this matchup no matter what.
00:35:32I mean, it really doesn't matter what...
00:35:33And NGCC is over pretty much.
00:35:38No matter...
00:35:38Even if this thing...
00:35:39If Davion wins, this thing's over.
00:35:42This thing...
00:35:43If Charlie wins, it's over.
00:35:44It doesn't matter, guys.
00:35:45Single weight.
00:35:46Crab right now locked in on Davion Heights.
00:35:48And Heights right now trying to find a way to get to that bottom rope.
00:35:53He didn't tap out the first time.
00:35:54Oh, baby.
00:35:54It was Ren Sinclair who threw in the towel.
00:35:57And she's again watching Davion get systematically dissected by Charlie Dempsey.
00:36:02Oh, baby.
00:36:03I got to be honest with you.
00:36:04Part of me enjoys watching Charlie Dempsey dismantle the opposition as he's doing right
00:36:09now handily to Davion Heights.
00:36:11What's Ren looking for under the ring?
00:36:14Sinclair needs to keep her emotions in check.
00:36:16I've been saying it.
00:36:17And Heights, is he going to tap?
00:36:19Is Heights going to tap?
00:36:20And it doesn't look like there is a towel anywhere for Ren Sinclair.
00:36:23Davion Heights trying to fight through the pain.
00:36:26Able to reverse it for the moment.
00:36:27Trying to get that pressure off.
00:36:28Big kick.
00:36:29Creating a little bit of separation.
00:36:31But right back in comes Dempsey.
00:36:32Oh, inside cradle.
00:36:33Got caught.
00:36:34Got caught.
00:36:35Ooh.
00:36:35Near fall.
00:36:37Back up.
00:36:38Heights.
00:36:39Bam!
00:36:40Leaving his feet.
00:36:41And Graves, you said it time and time again.
00:36:43Adrenaline will make a man do crazy things.
00:36:45That's what we're seeing right before our very eyes.
00:36:47Big double leg.
00:36:48And down goes Dempsey.
00:36:49I don't know if Heights will still be on his feet if not for that top rope.
00:36:53Trying to pick up any sort of momentum.
00:36:54But can he?
00:36:55Wait a minute.
00:36:56Does he have enough left?
00:36:57I don't have it.
00:36:57Somehow, someway.
00:36:59I don't know if he can get it in right here, though.
00:37:01Davion Heights.
00:37:02Yes!
00:37:04Able to fight through the pain.
00:37:06Dropping Dempsey.
00:37:07And now the momentum shift has swung over to Davion.
00:37:11Swung over there right there.
00:37:12I thought Davion was a little bit smart.
00:37:14So trying to get a cover out of that.
00:37:15Paul Dempsey back to the knee.
00:37:17I think it could be a case of the exhaustion playing a factor at this juncture.
00:37:20But Davion's had a lot taken out of him.
00:37:23Uh-oh.
00:37:23Look at this.
00:37:24Look at that.
00:37:25Baby.
00:37:26Big belly to belly.
00:37:28And Heights did it.
00:37:29He's now on his own.
00:37:31He's out of the NQCC.
00:37:34Here is your winner, Davion Heights.
00:37:39What a show of grit and determination from the Olympic kid, Davion Heights.
00:37:46Big, big things are on the horizon for Davion Heights, who showed a great deal of toughness,
00:37:53a great deal of grit, and a thunderous belly-to-belly suplex to knock off Charlie Dempsey and earn
00:38:00his exit from the no-quarter catch group.
00:38:04Congratulations, Davion Heights.
00:38:05I like it.
00:38:12It looks like he also earned some respect.
00:38:15Nice show of sportsmanship.
00:38:17But what's next for the NQCC?
00:38:20More importantly, what's next for Davion Heights?
00:38:24Hey, dawg, son.
00:38:27What do you know?
00:38:27You feel me?
00:38:28Hey, look, this is what we're going to do.
00:38:30Y'all going to finish him off tonight?
00:38:32That way, I can work on becoming a two-tidal holder, Treat Williams.
00:38:36Let's talk about it.
00:38:36Now, look, consider him out the picture, dawg.
00:38:39But if I do this for you, what do you think about setting up a shot for the boys for the TNA tagline?
00:38:44I love that, man.
00:38:44It's Trig and A. Let's talk about it.
00:38:46I told you I was like...
00:38:48You really think you have some stroke at TNA, don't you?
00:38:54Well, let me tell you something, brother.
00:38:56I am the stroke at TNA.
00:38:59But worry not about this, because tonight I'm not the director of authority at TNA.
00:39:04Tonight I'm a WWE superstar, defending the good people of North America against that bumhole boy, Ethan Page.
00:39:12And as for this, trusting me, you, this, don't get too comfortable, because that's coming home soon.
00:39:18Man, don't worry about whatever that was.
00:39:24And don't worry about trying.
00:39:26Well, there is Blake Monroe.
00:39:28He said she's going to expose Jordan Grace.
00:39:31What does she mean?
00:39:32We're going to find out next.
00:39:40Glamour is forever.
00:39:43Wow.
00:39:48Welcome back to NXT.
00:40:04Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome...
00:40:07Blake Monroe!
00:40:08She said she is going to expose Jordan Grace.
00:40:14The same Jordan Grace she dropped right here in front of us on a steel chair with a vicious DDT.
00:40:22She isn't glamorous.
00:40:24She's vindictive.
00:40:26Why can't she be both, Vic?
00:40:28There's only one, in my eyes.
00:40:30Vindictive.
00:40:31Villainous.
00:40:32Not glamorous.
00:40:36A star, baby.
00:40:38That's what she is.
00:40:43Booker T, darling.
00:40:45Yes.
00:40:46The name is Blake Monroe.
00:40:49She loves me.
00:40:50She loves me.
00:40:51She was very upset.
00:40:52So learn it, love it, and don't ever do that again.
00:40:56Unless you want to end up in a medical facility.
00:40:59Write it down, write it down, write it down.
00:41:02You're so enamored, you didn't even hear the threat she made.
00:41:05I heard it.
00:41:06Now, for the question everybody's been asking, why Jordan Grace?
00:41:13But the answer's so simple.
00:41:16Jordan isn't good enough.
00:41:20And that's a feeling I'm sure all of you can relate to.
00:41:23But I've seen protein shakes with more personality than J.G.
00:41:29She's just not a superstar.
00:41:32She's more of a background player.
00:41:35Or, as some might say, an extra.
00:41:44Yikes.
00:41:45But let's get serious.
00:41:47Let's get serious.
00:41:48This is the deepest division in women's wrestling.
00:41:52And you can't have a champion who looks like this.
00:41:56Oh.
00:41:57Oh.
00:42:04Now, I know.
00:42:06I know what you're all thinking.
00:42:08I get it.
00:42:09I get it.
00:42:10You're thinking, Blake, Blake.
00:42:11Jordan has.
00:42:13She's transformed herself.
00:42:15But I know, when she's alone, and she looks in the mirror, she doesn't see a juggernaut.
00:42:25She sees that photo.
00:42:27And that is not championship material.
00:42:30That's gym membership material.
00:42:33But this, this is what you call star power.
00:42:45This is what you build a brand around.
00:42:49WWE knew about me before I even decided to wrestle.
00:42:54And I was influencing all of you to buy shirts and going viral just for looking like this.
00:43:01Oh.
00:43:03Delicious.
00:43:04Because when you look this good, you don't need to change a thing.
00:43:10So I'm not here to play nice.
00:43:14I'm here to be the woman this brand revolves around.
00:43:17So you can all feel bad for J.G. because she's a little underdog.
00:43:23She can bench 300 pounds, but she can't carry a woman.
00:43:29Oye, Blake.
00:43:31Can you do us all a favor y callate la boca?
00:43:37Es que yo no entiendo.
00:43:39I don't understand how you could be so beautiful.
00:43:42Pero so ugly inside, man.
00:43:45You know what?
00:43:49You're right.
00:43:51We do have the deepest women's division.
00:43:54And you're not going to be champ of it.
00:43:58You want to talk about star power?
00:44:02Bueno, mama.
00:44:03Star power to me is flying across the world to represent WWE and AAA.
00:44:09Not, not taking selfies backstage.
00:44:13Star power is creating viral moments like I did dancing with Hall of Famer Nikki Bella at Evolution.
00:44:23So if there's anyone, pero I mean anyone.
00:44:31Ah, hold on.
00:44:33Hold on.
00:44:35Nah, baby.
00:44:38Ain't nobody trying to see all that.
00:44:40I promise you.
00:44:41I promise you.
00:44:42See, it's crazy to me.
00:44:43Because all I keep hearing is evolution this, viral moment that.
00:44:50Y'all love talking about your little moments, about somebody that made you relevant.
00:44:55I don't need any of that, baby.
00:44:57I don't need no Bella twin.
00:44:59I don't need no betrayal.
00:45:00And I damn sure don't need anybody else to make any type of noise.
00:45:03I am Jada Parker.
00:45:06Understand that.
00:45:08Y'all saw what I did to Jasmine Knicks earlier.
00:45:11I'm not chasing clout.
00:45:12I am chasing that NXT Women's Championship.
00:45:14Oh, dear.
00:45:16I had so much hope for the both of you.
00:45:20But you're just going to be little JG Jr.
00:45:23Is she here?
00:45:32Whoops.
00:45:35My bad.
00:45:37I guess I'm not the Jordan you were looking for.
00:45:43Well, always expect the unexpected here in NXT.
00:45:50Look, at Evolution, it was amazing.
00:45:54NXT represented.
00:45:56But I'm not here to talk about the past.
00:45:58I'm here to talk about the future.
00:46:01And you can't talk about the future without talking about Kalani Jordan.
00:46:07But for some reason, Blake, you think you're the hottest signee in sports entertainment.
00:46:13So how about you prove it against a former champion?
00:46:16But the truth is, Blake, even on your best day, you can't do it like Lonnie.
00:46:25That's cute.
00:46:30Kalani finally got a personality.
00:46:35How about next week?
00:46:37I put you with Jordan Grace in a medical facility.
00:46:40Oh!
00:46:43Head brought by Monroe.
00:46:45Starting to break down between these four women.
00:46:48Oh, Jesus, man.
00:46:51And it's all about championships.
00:46:54They all want opportunities.
00:46:59Oh, Levice and Karani Jordan holding the high ground.
00:47:02And if one thing's for certain, the target is getting bigger and bigger on the back of J.C. Jane.
00:47:13Oh, Levice and Karani Jordan holding the high ground.
00:47:16I thought this doll that you gave me, Izzy, I was able to pin Zarya.
00:47:23That might have been the biggest win of my career.
00:47:26I don't want to get ahead of myself, but I think I want to challenge Sol Ruka.
00:47:30Whoa.
00:47:31Whoa.
00:47:32You want to challenge Sol Ruka for the North American championship?
00:47:35I mean, Taylor, it was a big win, but you didn't pin the champion.
00:47:38And in order to get a title match, you have to pin the champion like I did.
00:47:42Tatum!
00:47:44We are still reeling from last week.
00:47:46Congratulations on getting us that big win in Houston.
00:47:48You proved to be an asset to the Kohler.
00:47:50And because of that, we just came from Ava's office.
00:47:53Because of your big win, you have a North American championship match against Sol Ruka next week.
00:47:58Are you kidding me?
00:47:59I am not kidding.
00:48:00Andy, did you hear that?
00:48:00I'm so proud of you.
00:48:01I'm looking forward to it.
00:48:03Tatum, that's amazing.
00:48:04Isn't it great?
00:48:05Oh, my gosh.
00:48:06You guys know what?
00:48:07Sol got lucky at Bash.
00:48:09Is Daria having her back?
00:48:11Next week, you're going to have all of us in your corner to make sure you bring home gold to the calling.
00:48:16Oh, my gosh.
00:48:17You guys are the best.
00:48:19You've earned this.
00:48:21Izzy, you guys are so amazing.
00:48:23I'm so happy right now.
00:48:25I love my new family.
00:48:26It's going to be your week.
00:48:27Next week, I'm going to do it for all of you guys.
00:48:29It's going to be so amazing.
00:48:31I'm so happy.
00:48:33No family lasts forever.
00:48:34Fatal influence.
00:48:38One thing's for certain.
00:48:39Two things for show.
00:48:40That I am the most dominant woman in all of WWE, especially after eliminating Nikki Bella and Nia Jax in that battle royal.
00:48:48So, once I'm done with Fallon Henley, there will be a clear path to that NXT Women's Championship.
00:48:55From Hulk Hogan, WWE will donate all net proceeds of the Hulk Hogan Legacy Collection to his family.
00:49:03The collection is available now on Fanatics and WWE Shop for a limited time.
00:49:10You're rapidly approaching the time for an NXT North American Championship defense by the self-proclaimed greatest North American, Ethan Page.
00:49:20Santino Morella, still to come.
00:49:22And we're pulling it from Atlanta, Georgia.
00:49:46Flash Legends!
00:49:48Yeah!
00:49:49Well, Graves is the bougie bully ready for tonight.
00:49:55All signs point to yes.
00:49:57Flash Legends has been on a roll recently, especially coming off the historic event known as Evolution.
00:50:06But can Flash capitalize on the momentum?
00:50:09Can she build off of it?
00:50:10It's one thing to make a little noise.
00:50:12It's another to sustain it, to continue to build.
00:50:14Oh, there's not a lot of momentum for Fatal Influence here tonight after what happened to Jasmine Nix earlier tonight.
00:50:21Graves, things didn't work out very well.
00:50:23So, how can Fallon turn Fatal's fortunes around?
00:50:26I think Fallon Henley has what it takes to pull the nose up.
00:50:29Good Lord!
00:50:31Give it up, give it down, Graves!
00:50:32Oh, Lash Legend out here already talking smack and now showcasing that power.
00:50:39She's a winner of six of her last seven singles matches.
00:50:42She's more focused than ever, but Booker, what truly is the next step for Lash in her career?
00:50:48She's on her own now.
00:50:49It's simple, the NXT championship, that's what it's all about.
00:50:52But I'm going to tell you right now, winning that first single championship is the hardest one.
00:50:57It took me six years.
00:50:58Here we go, here we go.
00:51:01Like I said, it took me six years to win a television championship.
00:51:04I'm going to tell you right now.
00:51:04Once that happens, the floodgates are going to open for Lash Legend.
00:51:09So in your opinion, Lash is ready to challenge for a championship?
00:51:12Of course, no doubt, she's ready right now.
00:51:16Well, talk about her confidence growing since Evolution, Graves, as you pointed up.
00:51:19She was the runner-up in that women's battle royal won by Stephanie Bacare.
00:51:24And Graves, what has impressed you the most with Lash Legend?
00:51:27You saw her on SmackDown.
00:51:29Oh, listen, I've been watching Lash Legend for quite some time,
00:51:31and each time out, she impresses me a little bit more.
00:51:33And above all, it's the confidence.
00:51:35We know she's got the tool.
00:51:36We know she's got the power.
00:51:37But now Lash Legend is starting to believe in herself that she is ready.
00:51:42And that's what the utmost is.
00:51:43Oh, my God.
00:51:44Nice back break.
00:51:45But I've got to warn you guys, don't sleep on Fallon Henley.
00:51:48This is a former NXT Women's North American champion.
00:51:51Fallon knows how to get the job done.
00:51:53Fallon right now trying to get back in.
00:51:55Nice blockbuster from the middle turnbuckle.
00:51:58Trying to turn things around right now.
00:52:00And Graves, to your point, why doesn't Jace even see her as an equal of sorts?
00:52:05Because Jace Jane is the one draped in gold right now.
00:52:08Fallon Henley's tasted it in the past.
00:52:10I believe she'll taste it again in the future.
00:52:12But right now, everything's coming up Jace Jane.
00:52:15Look at this.
00:52:16Beautiful, baby.
00:52:17Fallon right now into the cover.
00:52:18Hook of the leg.
00:52:19Center of the ring.
00:52:20And Lash.
00:52:21Able to power.
00:52:21But in my opinion, Fallon Henley may be the most complete member of fatal influence.
00:52:26She just hasn't had the luck bounce her way in quite some time.
00:52:29I agree.
00:52:30Conversely, Jace Jane, everything she's done has turned to gold recently.
00:52:34100%.
00:52:34I mean, I call Fallon Henley the pro.
00:52:36She's going to go out there and get the job done.
00:52:39And the question is, can she get the job done tonight?
00:52:41Because she's under a lot of pressure here tonight.
00:52:45Fatal influence needs to win, man.
00:52:47And what's pressure to do, Booker?
00:52:49Either forces you to crumble or it forces you to become a diamond.
00:52:52You feel me?
00:52:53You feel me?
00:52:53Here we go.
00:52:54Fallon.
00:52:55Oh.
00:52:56Beautiful work.
00:52:57Able to rock that bulldog.
00:52:59And now, maybe looking for the exclamation point.
00:53:02Oh.
00:53:03The power.
00:53:03Hoisted.
00:53:04Caught.
00:53:05And overpowered.
00:53:06And in.
00:53:07Thanks to Hurricane Roddick running a little bit of separation.
00:53:09Great tenacity from Fallon.
00:53:11But shrugged off.
00:53:13Oh.
00:53:13Oh.
00:53:14Big forearm from Lash.
00:53:18And yeah, Lash is in there with a former women's North American champion
00:53:21and women's tag team champion.
00:53:24And now trying again to take out, take down.
00:53:27Big far away slam to Fallon.
00:53:30And I just looked up from the monitor.
00:53:31J.C. Jane is not very happy.
00:53:33She wasn't happier earlier tonight.
00:53:35And she's certainly not happy right now in this moment.
00:53:38Like Gravy said, you can't count Fallon Henley out.
00:53:40Oh.
00:53:41Oh, yeah.
00:53:42You might have to count her out now.
00:53:43Oh, my God.
00:53:44Oh, the gnarly, gnarly landing man.
00:53:47Nasty spill is the action right now.
00:53:49Getting a little bit.
00:53:50Whoa.
00:53:50Oh.
00:53:51Damn, it has not been a good night for Jasmine Nix.
00:53:55And for Fallon Henley, she might pay too right now.
00:53:59Flash legend just imposing her will on fatal influence.
00:54:02Look out.
00:54:04Oh.
00:54:05Drop J.C.
00:54:06Guys.
00:54:07She's paying.
00:54:08Let's go.
00:54:09Fire.
00:54:10What's that hit?
00:54:10Jax.
00:54:11The irresistible force is here.
00:54:19I'm absolutely stunned.
00:54:21The referee didn't see Nia.
00:54:22This match is continuing.
00:54:23Famous.
00:54:24They're set on the ring.
00:54:25Fallon into the cover.
00:54:26And Fallon, with a fatal assist from Nia, steals it.
00:54:30Here's your winner, Fallon Henley.
00:54:36I am, I am shook.
00:54:39Well, let's take a look at the closing moment.
00:54:43Flash legend was wrecking shop.
00:54:45Everyone in fatal influence.
00:54:47Nia Jax from out of nowhere.
00:54:50Fallon Henley, the pro, capitalizing on the opportunity.
00:54:55Big hook in the lead.
00:54:56Big one not just for Henley, but for all.
00:54:59Guys, guys, guys, Nia Jax, not done yet.
00:55:04Hey, Graves, this is someone you know better than any of us.
00:55:07She's not going to let anyone talk down to her.
00:55:12Annihilator to the Bougie Bully.
00:55:15Look at your mouth, bitch.
00:55:21Nia Jax turning NXT upside down.
00:55:28An absolute shocker here on NXT.
00:55:36Well, we still got a lot to go here tonight after these two throughhands earlier.
00:55:42Evans is 100%, but can he rise to the occasion against Wesley?
00:55:46It's live.
00:55:47It's next on NXT.
00:56:12Damn it!
00:56:16That was my only chance, and he ruined it.
00:56:19Josh, you don't have an ounce of loyalty on him, do you?
00:56:22Yeah, dude, we know that.
00:56:23But I don't know when the next time I'm...
00:56:25What the hell?
00:56:25I don't know, let's leave!
00:56:27Hey, chances like that don't come around.
00:56:30But you wouldn't get that, wouldn't you?
00:56:32You wouldn't get that!
00:56:34Yo, yo, yo, listen.
00:56:36Family doesn't last forever.
00:56:38Loyalty and honor do not exist in this business.
00:56:40In the end, everyone gets theirs.
00:56:45Whoa!
00:56:48You have an honor!
00:56:50Next week, I will show you honor.
00:56:53Oh my God, are you okay?
00:56:58Well, back to NXT, and it is quite the look in the eyes of Javon Evans.
00:57:10And we've been joined here at Ringside, guys, by the TNA World Champion,
00:57:14and the leader of Trick N.A., none other than Trick Williams.
00:57:18Ooh, yeah!
00:57:20Let's talk about it.
00:57:21Welcome to Ringside.
00:57:23It takes a hell of a man to pull off footwear like this.
00:57:26I can't give you any more compliments than that.
00:57:28I call it my Lemon Pepper Steppers.
00:57:34And his opponent, representing the high-rise, wing-in at 170 pounds, Wesley!
00:57:43Oh, Wesley is looking at Lemon Pepper Stepper all over Javon Evans in this match-up.
00:57:49I want to go back to actually what you said earlier, Trick.
00:57:51Why do you think Javon isn't ready to run with the big dog?
00:57:56He ain't no big dog.
00:57:57Everybody agree with Undertaker's whole meal?
00:57:59Whoa!
00:58:00Here we go!
00:58:01Here we go!
00:58:02We'll get back to that thought in a second, because Javon Evans possessed.
00:58:05He's upset with what happened earlier.
00:58:07It was a four-in-one beatdown that you took part in, and he was dropped with a cardiac
00:58:11kick, a lethal one, when he was being held by Tyson and Tyreek in the center of the ring.
00:58:15Well, if we're being honest, Javon did swing first.
00:58:17Well, there you go.
00:58:18Can't argue with that, but look, Javon Evans.
00:58:20What do you mean, yeah?
00:58:21Yeah!
00:58:21You hear he's getting disrespected, and this match-up presented by Progressive.
00:58:25As it's Javon Evans going one-on-one with Wesley Booker, do you think the speech from
00:58:31The Undertaker lit a new fire now under Javon?
00:58:33Of course, I mean, kid, shoot for the star.
00:58:36I mean, don't give up on the dream and all of that.
00:58:39Of course, I do.
00:58:40100%.
00:58:41This kid has been so close, but tonight, he's in there with a professional in Wesley.
00:58:46We're speaking about The Undertaker.
00:58:47We're sitting right beside a man who, let's be honest, had the dead man shook last week
00:58:51in Houston, the trick-in-ing champion.
00:58:54That's right.
00:58:54Into the cover, hook of the leg, and an ear fall.
00:58:57So I'll get back to what I was saying, Trick.
00:58:58Why do you think Javon isn't ready to run with the big dog?
00:59:01He's still a puppy, man.
00:59:03It takes years, years, years to be ready for a NXT title, for a TNA title, for a world
00:59:09title.
00:59:09You don't just fall into these things, man.
00:59:11Get wet behind the ears, man.
00:59:12I keep getting wet behind the ears.
00:59:14I got some simulac for him in the car.
00:59:17A couple of body shots, nice drop kick to the back of Javon Evans.
00:59:21Trick, I gotta ask you, how tired are your shoulders?
00:59:24How sore is your back carrying?
00:59:25Not one, but two brands at the same time.
00:59:28Let me tell you something, man.
00:59:29It ain't easy.
00:59:30Trigger ain't never been easy.
00:59:31But I'm the right man for the job.
00:59:34Oh, look, Booker.
00:59:35Evans can't be thrilled that Wes thinks he's going to take him out here tonight.
00:59:39And it's the same moment earned his boys on the outside.
00:59:43Tyson and Tyreek, a TNA tag team title opportunity.
00:59:46Let me tell you something, if this young O.D. don't watch his back tonight, he's very careful.
00:59:51He could end up in the hospital.
00:59:53Whoa.
00:59:53Let me tell you something.
00:59:54Wes Lee's looking to prove a point.
00:59:55He's looking to prove a point here tonight.
00:59:57Ho.
00:59:58You know, we saw The Undertaker last week talk to Javon Evans.
01:00:00Yes, we saw what The Undertaker happened with you, Trick Limbs.
01:00:03I don't want to bring that up.
01:00:04Now, I actually want to ask you, Corey.
01:00:05Oh!
01:00:05If you go back to your days in NXT, what would it have meant to you to get advice like Javon Evans if someone liked The Undertaker?
01:00:13You're talking about The Undertaker, a man who needs no introduction.
01:00:16One of, if not the greatest WWE superstars of all time.
01:00:19You have to take what the dead man says to heart.
01:00:21But we're also sitting beside a man who had the guts to stand toe-to-toe with The Reaper and showed no fear.
01:00:28It was inspiring, Trick.
01:00:29I was inspired.
01:00:30That's right.
01:00:30That's a big dog.
01:00:31It's my yard now.
01:00:32NXT is my yard, man.
01:00:33Well, look, on that topic, Trick, Undertaker taught some lessons to Javon Evans last week.
01:00:38Did anything sit and stick with you that was maybe taught to you by The Undertaker?
01:00:43Yeah, man.
01:00:43Keep your head on the slip.
01:00:44No!
01:00:45I let my foot off the gas a little bit too early.
01:00:47That's all.
01:00:48You know, my thing is The Undertaker has to go out there and stick up for his huge and greats.
01:00:53And my thing is, wow, wow.
01:00:56Here we go.
01:00:56Don't bring your LFG anger to NXT.
01:00:59Go out there and get the job done.
01:01:01You know why?
01:01:01Because Craig Williams would have whooped one of their asses.
01:01:05That's what would have happened.
01:01:06Graves is shining his boots right now.
01:01:08Listen, man.
01:01:08Get over here.
01:01:10It's a trick and name, man.
01:01:11What you think's supposed to happen?
01:01:13Pippin' ain't easy.
01:01:14Pippin' ain't easy, man.
01:01:15The Godfather's not here right now, but Wesley certainly is.
01:01:18And he has taken it to Javon Evans in this matchup.
01:01:21And Booker, does Wes see a younger version of himself in Javon Evans?
01:01:26No doubt.
01:01:27I mean, he has to because I'm going to tell you right now.
01:01:29I remember being the youngest guy in the locker room there in actually a year ago.
01:01:32Oh!
01:01:33We see a young prodigy like this young man.
01:01:36The young man.
01:01:36He's coming home.
01:01:37And right there, he's getting a lot of praise shouting.
01:01:41Yes.
01:01:41I get it.
01:01:42He's going up.
01:01:43Javon Evans, he's going to go it up.
01:01:46You're not doing that.
01:01:47You're not doing that.
01:01:48Yeah, Tyson Tyreek here on the outside.
01:01:51That's right.
01:01:51The young OG still has a lot to learn.
01:01:59You can't take your eye off the ball when you're dealing with someone as dangerous
01:02:02as Wesley.
01:02:04Call him Similek.
01:02:06Wesley back in control.
01:02:09Who will be victorious on NXT?
01:02:21Well, this has been a rollercoaster of the year for Javon Evans.
01:02:27There was the injury, there's been championship matches, there was the main event at Stand
01:02:31and Deliver against Jutrik Williams, along with Obafemi, the current and reigning NXT champion.
01:02:38I think the thing is, nobody's doubting Javon Evans or what Javon's capable of.
01:02:43I think everybody agrees simultaneously.
01:02:45The future is extremely bright for the young OG.
01:02:47But to Trix's point, he's just not ready yet.
01:02:51He's not ready to knock off someone the caliber of Trix Wood.
01:02:54He's been proven.
01:02:55I mean, the younger OG has so many chances to actually cash in.
01:02:59And he's coming up just a little bit short.
01:03:01And like I say all the time, there are levels.
01:03:03There are levels to this game.
01:03:04Hey, that's all we're trying to say.
01:03:06You know, he's just a little too big for his britches.
01:03:08And not that he without talent.
01:03:10But it takes, you gotta be the dog to get the big title, man.
01:03:13Well, there's no doubt that you have been carrying, as you've said, two brands on your shoulders.
01:03:18I've seen what you've done at TNA.
01:03:20We've seen what you've done here at NXT.
01:03:21I heard what you had to say earlier tonight.
01:03:23I wonder if Obafemi heard what you had to say, Trick.
01:03:27I hope he did.
01:03:28Because I ain't wish for him.
01:03:30You know?
01:03:30Westley putting it on this boy right now, just systematically breaking it.
01:03:34Oh!
01:03:36Innovative offense right into a cover in the center of the ring.
01:03:40And that right shoulder just getting off the mat.
01:03:42Talk about talent and ability to spare.
01:03:45Look at that, bro.
01:03:46We just saw next-level athleticism out of Westley.
01:03:50And he didn't even, it looked effortless.
01:03:52He looked like a young Jim Kelly.
01:03:54I was just thinking the same thing.
01:03:56End of the dragon.
01:03:57End of the dragon, dog.
01:03:58Back to the back.
01:04:01Westley taking it to Javon Evans as the NXT universe right now is trying to rally behind
01:04:07the young OG Tyson, Tyreek of high-rise here on the outside.
01:04:13Tripp Williams, the TNA World's Champion, joining us ringside.
01:04:17A little bit of Wasteland from West.
01:04:20And you see the agony on the face of Javon.
01:04:23I'd ask you, Trick.
01:04:24How do you think Santino Lorella, the TNA Director of Authority, is going to fare in that
01:04:29North American Championship match in our main event?
01:04:32I don't care nothing about that match.
01:04:33I know he better say my name right.
01:04:35What's it, Tricky Williams?
01:04:37What's it, Tricky Williams?
01:04:38Say my name right, man.
01:04:39Put some respect to the TNA Champion.
01:04:42Well, that's something that you and he can talk about maybe later tonight or maybe on TNA in the locker.
01:04:47I'm not gonna say.
01:04:48What am I gonna say?
01:04:48You're talking to the man who is the face of TNA Wrestling.
01:04:50I'm not the one calling him Tricky Williams.
01:04:52I've been calling him Tricky Williams.
01:04:53Everything I've done for that brand, he can't say my name right?
01:04:56Where I'm from, that's considered this shit.
01:04:57Boom!
01:04:58You're lucky you don't got no match with me.
01:04:59There it is.
01:05:01What's that?
01:05:02A Saudi into a pin, a hook of a leg.
01:05:06Beautiful too, baby.
01:05:08Beautiful too.
01:05:09You don't want it too, you want it three.
01:05:11Let me tell you something.
01:05:11Wesley, this guy's an ultra, ultra talented, ultra, ultra talented young man.
01:05:16How many ultras was that?
01:05:17Five.
01:05:18It's a five?
01:05:19I get what you're doing there.
01:05:20Five times.
01:05:21Five times.
01:05:22Five times ultra.
01:05:22All right.
01:05:24Wesley with a front face lock controlling the pace of this matchup.
01:05:27He's been in control of Javon Evans, who is not at 100% after what happened earlier tonight.
01:05:33Can Javon Evans fight back?
01:05:34Can he bounce back?
01:05:35Can he get back into this matchup?
01:05:37Looking for a win.
01:05:38Wesley in control on NXT.
01:05:40We are the team.
01:05:42It has been all Wesley in this matchup.
01:05:48Javon Evans trying his best to overcome the odds.
01:05:51It's Trick Williams, the TNA World Champion, sitting to my left, joining us here on commentary.
01:05:56And this happened, Graves.
01:05:57Let's go back to during the break.
01:06:01Phenomenal athleticism on display by Wesley.
01:06:04A twisting senton making it look just too easy.
01:06:08Like a young Jim Kelly, y'all.
01:06:10If anyone can counter Javon, it certainly is Wesley.
01:06:15But Trick, you seem to have some big plans by focusing on becoming two-title Trick.
01:06:21Hey, can you think of someone better?
01:06:23What better way to submit my legacy here at NXT than doing it two times with two different brands?
01:06:29Chicken group brands.
01:06:30Let's talk about it.
01:06:30He's in trouble, guys.
01:06:32He's in trouble right now.
01:06:34Power being flexed by a young man.
01:06:36Oh!
01:06:37Nice counter, though.
01:06:38There's Wesley inside Cradle.
01:06:39Soldier down.
01:06:40And just able to kick out.
01:06:42And right now, again, what Wesley said, if he's able to win, he's hoping that you, Trick,
01:06:47are going to be able to secure a tag team title opportunity for Tyson and Tyreek.
01:06:51Those titles now held by the Hardys.
01:06:53All he has to do with that, man, is Trick and Dad.
01:06:55Do what I want, Dan.
01:06:56There's a lot of energy going for that.
01:06:58Oh!
01:07:00Still in the game, though, guys.
01:07:02And, Graves, with everything that's gone on, are we starting to witness the evolution of the young OG?
01:07:07Time will truly tell.
01:07:10But right now, Evans certainly looking to turn the tides in this matchup.
01:07:14Snap German suplex!
01:07:16Well, Wesley looks like he's out on his feet.
01:07:19Javon Evans now.
01:07:21Trying to find that different gear.
01:07:26Trying to find that different layer.
01:07:29Listen to this place.
01:07:31On a night, we saw Nia Jax come out of absolutely nowhere.
01:07:34You can expect the unexpected here on NXT.
01:07:37And this match has been quite an affair.
01:07:40Oh, my goodness.
01:07:41What a right.
01:07:42Javon just hit Wesley so hard he forgot his own name.
01:07:45Bam!
01:07:45And again on the chin.
01:07:47What do you like about this kid right here?
01:07:49Oh, my God.
01:07:50Sick in the pocket.
01:07:51Oh, yeah, baby.
01:07:52And that's going to be enough.
01:07:53Into the cover.
01:07:54Hook of the leg.
01:07:55Looking for the through.
01:07:58Wow.
01:07:59I'll tell you what.
01:07:59I've said it before, but Javon Evans is hitting Wesley so hard he's going to think his name is Desmond when he wakes up.
01:08:05Ha!
01:08:06Finding Similac.
01:08:07Javon, Wesley, these two came here tonight not knowing they were going to have a match.
01:08:14And what a match they are having.
01:08:16Just listen to the crowd here at NXT.
01:08:25Right on the butt.
01:08:27And Graves 2, we've talked a lot about, oh, Javon Evans, who just got spiked and planted.
01:08:32But this match could go a long way for Wesley in reopening the eyes of our general manager.
01:08:36It might be game over.
01:08:39West side.
01:08:41West side.
01:08:43Come on.
01:08:44He's got that left shoulder up.
01:08:47Not quite time yet.
01:08:49Yeah.
01:08:50What's Wesley thinking, though, right now?
01:08:51The thing is that half the damage has been done.
01:08:54That's what Wesley should be thinking.
01:08:56Finish it.
01:08:57Finish the job, though.
01:08:58Bring it home.
01:08:59Wes going all the way to the top.
01:09:02Looking for high risk.
01:09:04It did not pay off.
01:09:06Oh, Wes got caught.
01:09:08And now Javon.
01:09:10He's resilient.
01:09:13What's Javon thinking right now?
01:09:17I'm trying to keep his feet underneath.
01:09:18Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:09:20There's a crazy look in the eyes of the young OG.
01:09:24Hey, calm down, man.
01:09:25Calm down, man.
01:09:26That ain't rhythm.
01:09:27That ain't rhythm.
01:09:28No way.
01:09:30Uh-oh.
01:09:31Oh!
01:09:31Oh!
01:09:32Oh!
01:09:34A new twist on the coast to coast.
01:09:37Holy shit!
01:09:38In heavens now.
01:09:39Holy shit!
01:09:40Holy shit!
01:09:42Holy shit!
01:09:43Holy shit!
01:09:44Shit!
01:09:45Froggy!
01:09:46Holy shit!
01:09:47Holy shit!
01:09:48Holy shit!
01:09:49Come on, guys.
01:09:51Come on.
01:09:51Oh!
01:09:52Oh, no!
01:09:54Wow!
01:09:55Way!
01:09:56Did see that coming.
01:09:57I didn't see that coming, guys.
01:09:59How?
01:09:59That's a testament to the guts and the grit of Wes Lee.
01:10:03Look at the NXT universe right now rising to their collective feet for the young OG, for
01:10:09Wes Lee.
01:10:10Rick, you got something on your head.
01:10:11I know that ain't sweat.
01:10:12Man, I ain't gonna lie.
01:10:14He's showing me something right now.
01:10:15Get up!
01:10:15Get up!
01:10:16Get up!
01:10:16Get up!
01:10:16Get down!
01:10:18Well, Javon, again, does not have the numbers advantage with Tyson and Tyreek.
01:10:23They're on the outside.
01:10:26Oh, but Evans took his eye off the ball for just a moment.
01:10:29Javon right now.
01:10:30Hey!
01:10:31That's how you do it.
01:10:32Again, the rest of high rise.
01:10:34Come on, man.
01:10:35Oh, yeah.
01:10:36They might be thinking twice at this juncture.
01:10:38And whoop!
01:10:40Wesley was safe, but he's safe.
01:10:42No more!
01:10:43Wow!
01:10:45You talk about a high rise.
01:10:48Look at Javon.
01:10:51Young OG back in the ring.
01:10:52Got caught for a second inside cradle.
01:10:54Will this be another?
01:10:55That's right.
01:10:55That's right.
01:10:56Oh, man.
01:10:57That was great.
01:10:58Oh, big elbow from Evans.
01:11:01Coming right back in.
01:11:02Oh!
01:11:03Cardiac kick!
01:11:04Connected.
01:11:05That's how you finish the deal.
01:11:06That's how you make it to three.
01:11:07That's it.
01:11:08Oh, no!
01:11:09Javon's long legs just saved his rear end.
01:11:13Not only that, I think the cover from Wesley carried Javon too far over.
01:11:17That was a mistake.
01:11:18That was a mistake right there.
01:11:19You're right.
01:11:20You're in awareness lacking in that instance for Wesley.
01:11:23Wesley, a deep, aggressive hook of the leg may have caught him.
01:11:27Wesley is absolutely official, but he did his job.
01:11:30And now Evans from behind getting in here far.
01:11:32What a mess.
01:11:33What a mess.
01:11:33Cutter!
01:11:34Cutter!
01:11:34Cutter!
01:11:35Cutter!
01:11:36Cutter!
01:11:36Cutter!
01:11:36Cutter!
01:11:36Cutter!
01:11:37Cutter!
01:11:37And Javon to the top!
01:11:40One, two, three.
01:11:46Evans overcomes high rise.
01:11:51Here's the winner, Javon Evans.
01:11:56Trent Williams just threw his headset off in anger, in disgust, but what a mess.
01:12:03It's left all of our jaws on the floor.
01:12:06Here's Evans from the heavens, taking out high rise on the outside and getting bouncy, cutter-style.
01:12:16Big win for the young OG.
01:12:21Evans has been setting his sights on gold as he stares at Trent.
01:12:27And there is the ruler looking down at Trent Williams and Javon Evans.
01:12:34The ruler looking down at those who are standing in his yard.
01:12:43Still to come in our main event, in a matter of moments,
01:12:48the NXT North American Championship is on the line as the self-proclaimed greatest North American,
01:12:55Ethan Page defense against PNA's director of authority, Santino Marella.
01:13:07Time for tonight's NXT Focus, presented by Progressive.
01:13:14Miles, thanks for taking the time to sit with me.
01:13:16You and I have talked in the past.
01:13:17We've talked about your hearing disability.
01:13:19But today, I want to talk about Lexus King.
01:13:22I see the look on your face.
01:13:23I know it's Lexus King.
01:13:24But the things he said, the things he has done, it has to hurt you just a little bit.
01:13:30Lexus King, he's just stirring the pot.
01:13:33Contrary to what Lexus believes, I am mostly deaf.
01:13:36I was born with persistent pulmonary hypertension, Vic.
01:13:39You know, I was actually med-flighted immediately to a hospital in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
01:13:43And on that flight, I flatlined twice.
01:13:46So the doctors only gave me a 50% chance to live.
01:13:48And my family, they knew this.
01:13:50And they had to take into consideration that I might not make it.
01:13:53So they had me put on a machine that would keep me alive.
01:13:56Because as my mom said, nothing was working.
01:13:58Now that machine, by the grace of God, when they unplugged it,
01:14:03my heart started working on its own for the very first time.
01:14:06Now, that machine was called a ventilator.
01:14:08And that ventilator had radiation.
01:14:09And the radiation, although it's kept me alive, it also took 90% of my bilateral hearing.
01:14:16What exactly does that mean?
01:14:18So basically, it means that I lost 90% hearing in both ears, Vic.
01:14:22Well, growing up, it must have been difficult.
01:14:24But it still has to be a struggle to communicate.
01:14:29Communication has never really been my thing, Vic.
01:14:31You know, at a young age, I had to teach myself how to read lips.
01:14:34I didn't start speaking until I was four years old.
01:14:37Now, I won't do this to you.
01:14:38But growing up, I used to grab my parents' face and point them towards me so I could read their lips.
01:14:43And in car rides, I would even have them put the rearview mirror on their faces
01:14:46so that I could understand what they're saying while we're driving.
01:14:49So reading lips is basically like a cheat code for me.
01:14:51It helped me communicate and understand.
01:14:54Lips, hand movement, body language, anything and everything helps.
01:14:57Look, man, you have such a great perspective on everything that you've been through through life.
01:15:02What did you say, Vic?
01:15:03I'm just messing with you.
01:15:07You see, I choose to have fun with this.
01:15:09That's the way you got to deal with things in life.
01:15:11There's always going to be someone like a lesser king, someone who doesn't get it or don't believe you.
01:15:16And the truth is, you can't let people like that win because then they have power over you.
01:15:21What you got to do is you got to keep moving forward with your life, keep moving forward with your day,
01:15:24and block people like that out.
01:15:26At least that's what I did.
01:15:29Well, look, man, I appreciate you taking time and sharing your story.
01:15:32Good luck to you.
01:15:33Looking forward to calling your next match right here in NXT.
01:15:38Yeah, so we spoke to medical and Ricky has a bruised sternum, no broken ribs.
01:15:43I mean, he'll be back in no time.
01:15:45All right.
01:15:46Jordan Gray, she should be thanking the heavens for that strong neck of hers.
01:15:49She may be in the neck brace for a little bit, but she avoided some serious, serious spinal injuries.
01:15:54All right, great.
01:15:55Well, thank you guys.
01:15:57What?
01:15:58Are you guys really believing all this crap?
01:15:59What?
01:16:00What are you talking about?
01:16:00Did you just see the sit-down interview with Miles Bourne and his sob story about being deaf?
01:16:05Ava, he's not deaf.
01:16:06We all know that.
01:16:08What he is is a con man, a charlatan, a phony, and you rubes are falling for it.
01:16:13Wow, big word.
01:16:14Ava, if Miles was deaf, then how can he wrestle?
01:16:18Okay, yeah.
01:16:19If Miles is deaf, then I'm as blind as a bat.
01:16:21Lexus, you are so, so many things.
01:16:25But what you are next week is in action against Miles Bourne, the guy you got a problem with.
01:16:31Great.
01:16:32And I'll get to prove he's just as much of a fraud inside the ring as he is out of it.
01:16:37Sure.
01:16:38I guess.
01:16:39Whatever makes him feel better.
01:16:40Great call by Ava.
01:16:42Next week, NXT just got a little bit more stacked.
01:16:46As Blake Monroe, the glamorous one, goes one-on-one with Kalani Jordan.
01:16:52Talk about being stacked, Graves.
01:16:54How about not one, but two championships will be defended next week.
01:16:57As friendship, no more.
01:16:59Can Tatum Paxley bring gold back to the culling?
01:17:02Or can Ruka snatch her sole women's North American title on the line next Tuesday?
01:17:08There was no sneak attack with steel chairs needed for this one to be made official.
01:17:14Chase Youth has earned themselves an opportunity to challenge Tank and Tank for the NXT Tag Team
01:17:21title.
01:17:23But we are set for a championship main event tonight on NXT.
01:17:32The following contest scheduled for one fall is for the NFC North American Championship!
01:17:49Introducing first, from Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.
01:17:53Wing in at 225, he is the TNA Director of Authority, Antito Morella!
01:18:05This first match on WWE programming since June of 2014.
01:18:09Morella, Paige, for the North American title, next.
01:18:12We'll go back, we'll go back, we'll go back, we'll go back, we'll go back, we'll go back!
01:18:262024 was really hard.
01:18:28I'm so proud of you.
01:18:29The one thing that I've always relied on was my athleticism.
01:18:33That's good.
01:18:34And when I felt like that got taken away, I was so scared not to come back.
01:18:37It was good enough for the fans.
01:18:40Congratulations, congratulations.
01:18:43Let's go.
01:18:43How'd it feel out there?
01:18:45Yeah?
01:18:45I need to get one under my belt.
01:18:47Yeah, that's it.
01:18:47Get hit one time and it's right back in it.
01:18:50Yeah.
01:18:51Here we go, Wrestlemania.
01:18:53Wrestlemania.
01:18:55Tonight is like the beginning of, I hope, the best chapter of my career.
01:19:00I feel the most confident, me versus me.
01:19:02And that's what, I'm here to do it all over again.
01:19:10We caught up with Fatal Influence during the break.
01:19:15JC, JC, how would you assess Fatal Influence's performance tonight?
01:19:19Well, it obviously didn't, ain't bad.
01:19:22I mean, I handled my part, but baddie badass Jasmine couldn't hold up her head.
01:19:26And I was the only reason why you won Fallon.
01:19:28That is not true.
01:19:29Lash is not our concern anymore.
01:19:31Lash, you just got your ass dropped.
01:19:33And that's what happens when you think you're the most dominant force in the WWE.
01:19:36And somebody next week can find out.
01:19:38Lash, you just don't measure up.
01:19:43I told you to expect the unexpected on NXT.
01:19:47And his opponent, from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
01:20:03Winged at 240 pounds.
01:20:07He is the NXT North American Champion.
01:20:12Champions League of Ethan Page.
01:20:19We had an unexpected change to the title.
01:20:22Graves, I really didn't get your thoughts on Page's new championship design.
01:20:26I think it's the champion's prerogative.
01:20:28I think that Ethan Page is a very proud Canadian.
01:20:32And I think that it's a very great sign of, I don't know what to think, Vic.
01:20:36It's his, he changed the color of the leather.
01:20:38It's about what the title represents.
01:20:40And that's what's important.
01:20:41He's the champion of all of North America.
01:20:44He's my North American Champion.
01:20:46He's your North American Champion.
01:20:48He's, he's, people in Mexico is North American Champion.
01:20:51It's important to recognize that.
01:20:53I, I understand where you're coming from.
01:20:55He's a proud Canadian patriot.
01:20:56He is.
01:20:56He said he was born in Canada.
01:20:58He was made in America.
01:20:59I didn't say that.
01:20:59It's true.
01:21:00Tell me what he said.
01:21:01He said he was made in America.
01:21:02He's his prerogative, man.
01:21:03He says it Bobby Brown out here, Parker.
01:21:05What do you mean my prerogative, man?
01:21:06Come on, man.
01:21:07I mean, the title is one thing, North American Championship, but the champion.
01:21:12Uh-oh, uh-oh.
01:21:13Crucifix for the title.
01:21:14It's only gonna take three seconds.
01:21:16And look, Booker, how tough is Santino Morelli?
01:21:18I'll tell you something.
01:21:19Santino Morelli, I mean, he's the official ambassador.
01:21:21Inside cradle, shoulders are down.
01:21:23Another deep ball.
01:21:24And official ambassador of Judah in Canada.
01:21:26I mean, he's the founder of Battle of the Academy.
01:21:28This guy has won gold.
01:21:29I mean, United States champion.
01:21:31Henry Cardinal champion, tag team champion.
01:21:32Shoulder to get down and another deep ball.
01:21:34But the thing is, the thing is, this is a young man's game.
01:21:37Ethan Page is the pride of his career right now.
01:21:40It's time to take a look at tonight's NXT recap, presented by Progressive.
01:21:45As I mentioned, first match on a WWE program since June of 2014 for Santino Morelli.
01:21:50Former two-time Intercontinental champion.
01:21:53What's that?
01:21:53He's the United States champion.
01:21:54What's that?
01:21:55What's that?
01:21:55What's that?
01:21:55What's that?
01:21:56He won the Intercontinental title on his first night on Raw in Italy back on April 16th, 2007.
01:22:03Can a miracle happen tonight?
01:22:05Because he got your stat sheet.
01:22:06I mean, of course.
01:22:07I mean, Santino Morelli, he's done a lot in this business.
01:22:10But like I said, it's a young man's game.
01:22:12And Ethan Page right now.
01:22:13Come on, give it to him.
01:22:14He's on top of his game.
01:22:15Does Santino deserve the blame for both TNA World titles being in NXT?
01:22:21We've always talked about what the locker room would say to those who were carrying those titles.
01:22:24But how about the man that signed the matches and made him official?
01:22:27I certainly believe that to a degree, Santino deserves some of the blame.
01:22:31I mean, Santino can't go out and compete for those championships on anyone's behalf.
01:22:35There's definitely some sideways stares in the locker room.
01:22:39Another cover.
01:22:41Quick kick out.
01:22:42So Booker, is this a must win almost for Santino Morelli to bring?
01:22:45As he goes into another cover.
01:22:46What the hell is he talking about?
01:22:48To bring a WWE NXT title to TNA to lift the morale of the company.
01:22:52You must be insane if you think Santino Morelli is gonna beat Ethan Page.
01:22:58Only thing you can hope for is a you still got it, champ.
01:23:01That's about it.
01:23:03Didn't we already have that?
01:23:04We already have one of those bookers.
01:23:06I mean, Santino Morelli has been in this matchup.
01:23:08Ethan Page right now has weathered this early storm.
01:23:12Is that it?
01:23:13Why are you giggling?
01:23:14Well, here's what I want to know, Vic.
01:23:16Why it's not okay or less than acceptable for Ethan Page to have a Canadian-themed North American championship,
01:23:23yet the man who's trying to take the championship back to TNA with him is also Canadian.
01:23:29I mean, come on.
01:23:29It's like he said last week, that being said, Santino Morelli, he has dignity, he has honor, he's prideful.
01:23:34He represents everything opposite of Ethan Page.
01:23:37Shoulder sound in another near full.
01:23:38What is more prideful than turning the championship into the nation's flag?
01:23:42The nation from whence he came.
01:23:45This is his pride.
01:23:45This is his pride.
01:23:46This is his pride.
01:23:47He can do what he wants to do.
01:23:48That's his buzzword tonight.
01:23:49Let's get to replay.
01:23:50Big boot by Ethan Page, kicking the smile off of Santino's face, and it's about to get worse from here.
01:23:57Well, if you compare the two, many feel that Santino would make a great North American.
01:24:02Ah!
01:24:03Let me tell you something.
01:24:04Into another cover by Ethan Page, and a kick out.
01:24:07I like Santino Morelli.
01:24:09I mean, he's a hell of a guy.
01:24:11He's a hell of a guy.
01:24:12He should not be in this bad.
01:24:15He can get hurt.
01:24:15The thing about the bigger implications, guys, I think we're missing the point here.
01:24:22If Santino Morelli becomes NXT North American Championship, that means one of our championships
01:24:27is gonna show up on their show.
01:24:29And we're gonna feel the sting, the pain, that the TNA World Championship has felt, and that
01:24:35the Knockouts Championship has felt.
01:24:37And that's what I was trying to get to when Booker was screaming at me, prerogative of
01:24:40this and prerogative of that, that this is almost a must win if you're thinking of the
01:24:44TNA locker room for the Director of Authority, who signed those two matches, and then cost them,
01:24:49so to speak.
01:24:50There it is.
01:24:51You just said Director of Authority.
01:24:53Do you think that Santino Morelli could have actually put somebody else in this match
01:24:58instead of himself?
01:24:59Maybe he wanted to do it himself.
01:25:01It's not like you haven't put yourself in a match.
01:25:03It's down at Reality of Wrestling is now hoisting up Ethan Page.
01:25:07Maybe Vick's just holding out hope for a new edition of the NXT North American Championship.
01:25:11A round we go!
01:25:15And it says, oh!
01:25:18Santino couldn't stay on his feet, trying to stay in this match, but look, as I said,
01:25:23many feel Santino would make a great North American championship.
01:25:26He would.
01:25:26He would have done it.
01:25:27You can hear the NXT universe trying to rally, as Page right now looking for
01:25:33twisted grid, countered, and, oh, Stunner!
01:25:37Stunner by Morella!
01:25:38It was Stunner-ish.
01:25:40It was effective.
01:25:41It was effective.
01:25:41Page is down.
01:25:43Can we see it?
01:25:44It's for another miracle.
01:25:45Santino Morella now could be closing in on that North American title hook of the leg.
01:25:52There it is!
01:25:55There it is!
01:25:57It's like you know a thing or two about this game, Booker.
01:26:01The rule will be the North American champion at our next premium live event, NXT Heat Wave,
01:26:06August 24th in Lowell.
01:26:08Oh, there we go.
01:26:10Vic, if I'm being honest, you could learn a figure two or pride from Ethan Page.
01:26:17If Page is a proud Canadian, it's reflected in his championship, you should have a little
01:26:22NXT pride, Vic, because we don't want to lose the North American championship to TNA.
01:26:27I do.
01:26:28I call down the middle, unlike other announcers.
01:26:29What?
01:26:30You're ridiculous.
01:26:31They cry with something.
01:26:32What?
01:26:33Goes on with a brand, whether it's TNA, NXT.
01:26:35I'm here all for it.
01:26:36I'm just calling it like it is.
01:26:38Ethan Page, right now, could, could retain the title.
01:26:42He got heat with Hannaford or something?
01:26:44It's a long climb to the top for the greatest North American!
01:26:47Here he comes!
01:26:48Oh!
01:26:49Oh no!
01:26:50He's up!
01:26:51Vicentino!
01:26:52Go Rock!
01:26:53Go Rock!
01:26:54Go Rock!
01:26:55Go Rock!
01:26:56Go Rock!
01:26:57Go Rock!
01:26:58And there is that NXT universe.
01:27:00It was Santino who said tonight he is back to being a superstar.
01:27:05Santino a real North American that would fight for the rights of every man and woman.
01:27:10It doesn't matter if it's TNA or WWE.
01:27:13Santino the hip-hop!
01:27:15Hip-hop!
01:27:16That was a hip-hop!
01:27:17Beautiful!
01:27:18It's about time you pay some respect to Santino Morella.
01:27:21He's turning the clock back up!
01:27:23What the hell is he teaching?
01:27:24Up and over!
01:27:25You win!
01:27:26That man has lost it.
01:27:27Did you look in his eyes?
01:27:28I certainly did and we could be in for another miracle tonight.
01:27:34We're trying to speak it into existence.
01:27:39That's the third time you said it.
01:27:40You're trying to manifest...
01:27:41Who thought that championship celebration was ruined last week?
01:27:42Oh no!
01:27:43Come on Rev!
01:27:44The celebration was ruined last week.
01:27:45Oh, no.
01:27:46Come on, ref.
01:27:47Oh, no.
01:27:47I don't want to go to work at Universal.
01:27:49Looking for the Cobra.
01:27:52Oh, thumb to the eye.
01:27:55Paige, the official X-Tia.
01:27:57Twisted grin.
01:27:58Taking out Santino.
01:28:00And Paige retains.
01:28:05Here is the winner, Ken Stinn.
01:28:08Here is the NXT North American Champion, All-Ego Ethan Payne.
01:28:19Now, to answer your earlier question, Vic,
01:28:22I think that North American Championship is beautiful
01:28:25and befitting of the greatest North American
01:28:28who's keeping the gold right here where it belongs.
01:28:31All eyes continue to be on the North American Champion,
01:28:36and All-Ego Ethan Paige.
01:28:47Here you go, Donna.
01:28:49Some things are changing.
01:28:51You don't want to call me Donna anymore.
01:28:54Tony D is fine.
