PLAY BY PLAY
Andy Shepherd again welcomes us to NXT UK.
It’s another special edition in which we look back to NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff, and a main event match “for the ages.” It was the Ring General VS The Big Strong Boy in what is now being called…
NXT UK’s Most Brilliant.
At Tyler Bate’s family home in Dudley, England, Mrs. Jill Bate speaks to Tyler’s love of pro-wrestling from a young age. They would make sure to buy tickets to go to events when WWE came to the UK. And now, it’s Tyler’s job. That’s rather crazy to think about for her, but Tyler always knew he was going to do this. Trent Seven says he first met Tyler in a Birmingham training camp. Just right away, he could see Tyler was leaps and bounds above everyone at that age. Seven knew he would be great. Tyler himself knew that this was always the goal. It was the dream to be a WWE superstar eventually. Few wrestlers start their career without that being the case. So for Tyler, signing at just 19, he “just kinda winged it.” No one in that field of 16 knew what was coming when they signed up. And then it became the WWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament, that Tyler of course went on to win.
Being the inaugural United Kingdom Champion at just 19, it was just surreal. Tyler had no idea who he even was as a wrestler, performer or person. The last three years, growing up in the WWE, it was a constant search to figure all of that out. He was the youngest person to ever be a champion in the WWE. You always talk about first-evers, and that is what British Strong Style carries so closely. Tyler, Pete Dunne and Trent Seven carried the brand and took pride in being the first three in the brand. And then Imperium coming in, Seven feels he’s partly responsible for how it turned out.
Now we go to Hommersum, German, the hometown of Walter. Walter jogs through the countryside. This is the border of Germany and the Netherlands. He likes coming out here because he can focus on himself. The cities are so crowded, it just distracts you from what’s important. When Walter first signed with the WWE, he was asked if it was possible for him to move somewhere, like the US or the UK. The biggest difference between him and everyone else in this sport is that he is true to himself. He is true to his roots and to the sport he deeply respects. Everyone thinks that what British Strong Style does is the “new style in professional wrestling.” But Walter is embarrassed to know people pay good money to watch that and think that is what the sport is about.
Show him one person from England that looks like a true man. Show him one person from England that can stand beside him in Imperium. They can’t, because they’d look like little children next to him. Walter is aware he is not liked, and he doesn’t care. There would be nothing better for NXT UK to have Tyler Bate as a champion. Bate is 10 years younger, handsome and in great shape, “a beautiful boy.” But he’s losing focus on what matters in this sport. What has Bate done since winning the UK Championship? If the WWE wants a champion that is always excited to be in England or do media, autographs, so on, well then find someone who can do that and beat Walter.
Walter goes to the wXw (Western Xtreme Wrestling) training academy in Essen, Germany. This place was built by Walter. You do not get anything for free here. Everything must be earned. Walter is very strict on his students, because he demands they respect the mat. No one respects the mat as much as Imperium. They don’t just say something to impress someone. They mean it. Everyone in Imperium has the same philosophy about the sport.
Back to Jill Bate. Seeing what Walter did to Tyler is something no mother should ever have to see. Seven says it isn’t just the attack and its brutality. It is the fact Imperium robbed Moutache Mountain of their chance at the NXT UK Tag Team Championships. They had those titles in hand, and Imperium knew that when they attacked. They brutalized Seven, and then cuffed him so that he couldn’t do anything to save Tyler. “You can’t be prepared for that.” Walter says British Strong Style does not stand a chance. Especially Tyler, because he was trained the wrong way. Just look what Walter did to him. In 10 seconds, Walter took Tyler out for weeks. Tyler himself says Walter disrespected him. Walter then took Trent Seven on, and Seven admits to rushing in without a plan. Walter dominated and brutalized Seven until the referee had to stop the match. Tyler says it will be Walter’s turn to suffer.
January of 2017 was when the world was in awe of a 19 year old kid. But now, he is a man, an elite level performer. This is the best Tyler Bate Seven has ever seen. Jill Bate is extremely proud of his son. Tyler’s growth these last three years is incredible, and he always strives to better himself. Tyler says Walter is greed and power and all of these things Tyler doesn’t agree with. Walter just walks all over and disrespects what NXT UK represents. Cardiff is Tyler’s opportunity to prove to the world, and to himself, that he can be the champion that the brand can be proud of. Tyler carries a lot on his shoulders beyond the title. There is the honor of British professional wrestling and what the brand was built on. Truly an important day to Tyler Bate, and we will watch that match alongside the men in it after the break!
Other NXT UK superstars share their memories of this match.
First, Amir Jordan recalls how “Big Walter shows up at the start of 2019, chops his way to the top of NXT UK, dominates everyone, and now, up steps Tyler Bate.” Can Bate get Walter up for the Tyler Driver? Or even just a classic Hogan scoop slam? Or will Walter just chop him down? Watching backstage, Amir was gripped. As a smaller guy, he was totally behind Bate in this. Isla Dawn says Walter VS Bate is one of the best matches she was lucky enough to see live. Backstage, everyone was transfixed for the entire match. No one was talking or distracted. No one could look away. And by the end, everyone was applauding these two talented individuals putting it all on the line and leaving it out there in the ring. Flash Morgan Webster says there’s this one crazy moment where Tyler just takes this clubbing beating for what feels like 30 or 40 minutes. Somehow he always fights through the pain, bridges up, and hits Tyler Driver ’97! There is not anyone in the NXT UK Universe not on their feet. What were your favorite moments from this match?
8/31/19 – NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff, WWE UK Championship: Walter VS Tyler Bate!
Accompanying unseen footage of the event, NXT UK Head Coach Johnny Moss speaks to this match being not only NXT UK’s greatest match, but perhaps the greatest match in the WWE. Moss watched backstage with goosebumps, because it was like a movie coming to life. Bate’s heart of a lion going up against the sheer brutality of Walter, “this is an absolute war, plain and simple.”
Before the match begins, we hear from Walter. “Going into the match, I was very aware of what to expect from Tyler.” When you look at the picture, the build, it is obviously the bigger and heavier wrestler and the smaller, more agile wrestler. If you look closer at it, this is actually a much more even match-up. Then we hear from Tyler Bate. “Well, I’m not ashamed to admit I was a bit scared.” Walter is the man who beat Pete Dunne for the title. And Dunne beat Tyler for the title, so it seemed natural to think Walter was going to win. But Tyler wasn’t going to let that scare him off. Instead, he just looked Walter dead in the eyes with a confident smile.
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and this battle for dominance begins!

Winner: WALTER, by pinfall; still WWE United Kingdom Champion
Walter has the toughest match in his NXT UK career, in this title’s history, and perhaps all of WWE 2019! And still, he reigns atop the UK brand. If Bate couldn’t dethrone him after all this, will anyone ever end the reign of the Ring General?
In the present, Walter speaks to how it felt after the match. “I felt like the mission was successful.” He defeated the last member of British Strong Style, and it was clear that Imperium was taking over NXT UK. Tyler adds that maybe his preparation still wasn’t enough. But the result speaks for itself. Tyler won’t beat himself up about it, because he has no regrets with the performance. He put in 100% effort into the match, and sometimes you just can’t win, but that’s okay. What matters is not the loss, but the heart. So next time, and Bate vows there will be a next time, he will be even better.
Andy Shepherd thanks you for watching NXT UK.
And he also lets us know that next week will be another special episode. It will be NXT UK: Hidden Gems, with never-before-seen matches, including the current #1 contender, Ilja Dragunov!
My Thoughts:
It was so great to relive this great match. I love that opening documentary video, it was like a WWE 24 or something. For those who know the TakeOver: Cardiff article, you know I gave that event the highest score I’ve given anything because of how amazing it was from start to finish. Walter VS Bate truly is the best NXT UK has given us so far, and is one of the best WWE as a whole has had in a long time. I don’t know if any event from any company will ever outdo TakeOver: Cardiff 8/31/19 in my eyes. That event came out of nowhere to be the best event on a day jam-packed with wrestling. There was NJPW Royal Quest and even AEW All Out, and those were only second to Cardiff. Bate’s growth is an incredible journey and Walter is another “once ever” talent like how Paul Heyman loves to hype Brock Lesnar as. I’m not sure a rematch of Walter VS Bate down the line could capture the magic of this first one, but I would love to see them try.
My Score: 8.7/10

Backstage interview with Mercedes Mone & Kamille.
Renee Paquette meets The CEO & Brickhouse just outside their locker room and wants to talk the TBS Championship defense against Kris Statlander. Mone rolls her eyes and says yes, she knows. But don’t even ask about a question before you know what’s up. “Bridgeport~! Say hello to your C E O.” Okay, well, to the point, Mone & Kamille tried to run Kris over with their car. What?! That was NOT Mone’s fault, Kamille cannot drive. Mone pushes her pink coat into Kamille, who drops it because of her bad arm. Mone gets mad at Kamille for dropping her 20 THOUSAND DOLLAR jacket and tells her to put it in the locker room.
Mone says Kamille’s incompetence is stressing her out. But so is Statlander. Mone is not afraid of her, did you not see Collision? Mone put Kris in the Statement Maker and made her beg for mercy!

Kris picks Money up, Kamille grabs Mone, Mone CLAWS Kris’s eyes! Kris TACKLES them both through a wall!! Was THAT a preview of what’s gonna happen when the gold is on the line?
Tony Schiavone is in the ring.
AEW returns as Schiavone welcomes in the Aerial Assassin, Will Ospreay! The fans fire up as Ospreay makes his entrance, feeling much better after his big return last week. Schiavone says Ospreay is of course focused on getting the International Championship back, which is owned by Konosuke Takeshita and all but stolen from him. But surely, Ospreay’s mind is also on Don Callis and what’s going on with his old friend, Kyle Fletcher. Ospreay says he doesn’t really know. He has a lot of questions he needs answers for. Ospreay thanks the fans for the singing, but he says the title is second for right now.
So if Schiavone doesn’t mind, Ospreay’s gonna call out Fletcher and they’ll have a chat. Schiavone steps aside and here comes The Protostar already! Kyle stares Ospreay down as he stands on stage, and Kyle tells Ospreay that the Family begged Kyle not to do this on his own. But Kyle wants to prove he is not a coward, unlike Ospreay. Because weeks ago, Kyle called Ospreay out and yet Ospreay would rather sit at home and lick his wounds than show up for the people. So Kyle is here face to face, man to man, and wants Ospreay to know the Family is never far behind. So much as lay a finger on him, and Ospreay will be sent home for a lot longer than three weeks this time.
That said, what does Ospreay wanna talk about? Ospreay says hang on a minute. He’s been in the Don Callis Family meetings. Surely Kyle has something in his back pocket. Whatever it is, get it out of there. Ospreay promises he won’t touch Kyle, he just wants to talk. Kyle brings out the screwdriver! And he tosses it to the feet of Ospreay. Ospreay picks it up, and throws it down on the floor. It sticks right in the mat! Kyle asks if Ospreay is happy, and Ospreay says not really. He’s looking at someone he used to call a brother, and is starting to feel hatred and anger. Kyle lived in Ospreay’s house! And while in Australia during Pandemic, Kyle was working in a warehouse going stir crazy.
Ospreay let Kyle live with Ospreay, he joined The United Empire. Ospreay, Kyle and Mark Davis took over Japan, England, and obviously Ospreay opened the door to Kyle here in AEW. This is what annoys Ospreay: Kyle knows everything about Ospreay. From where he goes to the gym, to where he lives. Kyle’s been with Ospreay to go pick up his son from school. That frightens the Missus, it upsets Ospreay, so Ospreay wants answers. Ospreay wants them from Kyle’s mouth. Kyle says surprise surprise, Ospreay is taking credit for someone else’s success. Callis only opened Kyle’s eyes to the truth.
The fans boo but Kyle says while Ospreay did all that, from shelter to food, who was Ospreay really doing that for? For Kyle? No, Ospreay was doing it for Ospreay. Everything Ospreay does is about Ospreay! Ospreay wanted to mold Kyle into a Ospreay clone so he could succeed, but never as much as Ospreay. Ospreay is selfish and hypocritical! Fans call BS but Kyle says he did exactly what Ospreay would’ve done in his shoes! From Okada to Omega, Ospreay would’ve done the exact same thing! Oh get over yourself! The last time Ospreay saw Kyle, Ospreay was on the couch with his little boy, watching Kyle shaving his head, shouting on about how he’s nothing like Ospreay.
So now, Kyle is bringing up Ospreay’s past and saying Kyle is doing the same? Pick a lane, son! Are you nothing like Ospreay? Or are you a clone? But you wanna bring up the past? Fine! Ospreay will own it. He stabbed Okada in the back, stabbed Omega in the back, but before all that, he was a THREE-TIME IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion! A TWO-TIME Best of the Super Junior winner! Every continent he’s been on, Ospreay has held gold! So tell Ospreay, Kyle, what have you done!? And do NOT use Aussie Open. What has KYLE FLETCHER done?! SOD ALL, lad!
Ospreay wants to know what Kyle has done? How about what he’s going to do? Kyle will surpass Ospreay and every single accomplishment he’s ever had. And Kyle will prove it at Full Gear! November 23rd, live on PAY PER VIEW, Fletcher VS Ospreay! The fans do like the sound of that. Ospreay says there it is, that’s what this has been all about. Kyle wants his five minutes of fame! He wants his PPV match! Well look no further, lad! Because around these parts, Ospreay is Mr. PPV! Since Ospreay’s been here, there have been four different world champs, and none of them can match what Ospreay can do!
The fans fire up as Ospreay says if Kyle wants the match, then CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! And let Ospreay tell Kyle why this will be so sweet. When Kyle shaved his head, Ospreay sitting there with his six year old son, Kyle does not know the damage he did. This left hand could barely feel anything anymore. And after Kyle shaved his head, Ospreay’s son was holding his hand, and Ospreay didn’t even know it until he looked down! KYLE did that to Ospreay. Kyle took that from Ospreay and Ospreay’s son. So this is a nice little carrot: Full Gear, 11/23/24. And now Ospreay will be the one to take THAT from Kyle!
Kyle says if you think that Tiger Driver and the screwdriver stab were bad, Kyle isn’t coming for a piece, but he’s coming for it all! But let’s see what condition Ospreay shows up to Full Gear in. Oh, now Kyle’s got friends? Brian Cage & Lance Archer step up, but Ospreay says no worries. He’s got friends, too! Will Hobbs & Mark Davis step in! The fans fire up. Ospreay asks if we’re standing around like a-holes or are we gonna fight? And so they fight! The fans fire up as we get Ospreay and Kyle, Hobbs and Cage, then Mark and Archer! Mark puts Archer in a corner, Kyle does the same with Ospreay, and they turn around to see each other!
The fans fire up as Aussie Open jaws at each other. Ospreay BOOTS Kyle, Mark sighs, but then Ospreay PLANCHAS out onto Kyle! Archer DECKS Davis! Ospreay and Kyle brawl up the ramp, as do Cage and Hobbs! But wait! HERE COMES Roderick Strong! Archer goes up to the ramp, but Roddy comes in from around the way! KENDO STICK SMACK! Roddy’s ready for that Falls Count Anywhere! The bell rings now, this match is happening NOW!
Falls Count Anywhere: Roderick Strong VS Lance Archer!

Backstage interview with The Hurt Syndicate.
Renee welcomes in Shelton Benjamin, Montel Vontavious Porter & “The All Mighty” Bobby Lashley. Renee says in just over a week, Full Gear, Lashley has his first AEW match against Swerve Strickland. Swerve is perhaps the most dangerous man in all of pro-wrestling today, and one of the most decorated champions we’ve had in AEW. Does Lashley feel prepared for- MVP interrupts and asks where Renee got her journalism degree. No, don’t answer that. MVP will take this from here. Lashley, you are without question the most indominable force in pro-wrestling today, one of the most decorated champions in the history of this sport!
How does it feel to know that in less than two weeks, he may end young Swerve’s career? Lashley tells Renee that Swerve is dangerous to everyone else. But Lashley will make an example out of Swerve. Lashley will hurt Swerve. MVP says you heard it from Lashley himself. Swerve will be in action later on tonight, and The Hurt Syndicate will be watching. That’s how it’s done. Renee thanks MVP and the Hurt Syndicate for their time, but will Lio Rush prove to everyone that he is the Man of the Hour?
The Death Riders are attacking!
Claudio Castagnoli SMACKS JD Drake on the back with a chair! Then he hands said chair to Wheeler Yuta, and Yuta SAMCKS JD! And then SMACKS him again! And here comes Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir. Yuta & Claudio leave Scrap Metal behind to walk down the ramp while Moxley & Marina walk in from the crowd. They all meet at the ring, and Marina even intimidates a cameraman into the ring! The fans are torn but Moxley ahs a mic. “I’ve been thinking about Orange Cassidy a lot these last few days. He’s playing the game very well. Chuck Taylor is drinking his food through a straw because you couldn’t save him.
“Wheeler Yuta belongs in me, believes in me, because you couldn’t save him. And you’re undeterred. Hands in your pockets, eyes on the prize, Orange Cassidy, you have the chance of a lifetime on November 23rd. A shot at the AEW World Championship. All your friends, all your fans, all your peers, are depending on you. That pressure is building, and you’re cool as a cucumber. So I have to make an example out of Orange Cassidy at Full Gear on November 23rd, and I will make an example out of you at Full Gear, Orange Cassidy. I’m gonna brutalize Orange Cassidy! I’m gonna stomp his face into hamburger meat. I’ll mutilate him so bad, his own mother won’t recognize him.
“And everybody will see that. Everyone who wants to call themselves a contender, everybody who thinks they wanna be somebody in this business will see that, and they will run and hide! And we will continue to do whatever the hell we want in AEW, because I command the AEW Championship, and WE have the power!” The fans boo, but here comes Cassidy! The fans fire up as Freshly Squeezed steps out on stage, mic in hand. The fans cheer Cassidy on, but he’s not alone! Mark Briscoe & Rocky Romero are here! Cassidy says, “Hello. See, I wanted to come out here and let you know, Jon, that I agree with you. I believe you.
“I believe you can do all the things you say you’re gonna do, and it’s because of what’s in that briefcase. See, you hold the symbol that represents AEW. That represents me, that represents us, represents all of these people. It represents everything professional wrestling can be. It’s the power. You hold the AEW World Championship. But see, we could fight all around this building, we could fight in the parking lot, we could fight in catering. It doesn’t matter, because the only way you become AEW World Champion is by wrestling. And for a guy who doesn’t like to wrestle, I wrestle more than anybody else here.
“And I’m pretty good at it, too, because, uh… I beat you, remember that?” The fans cheer and Cassidy says at Full Gear, he and Moxley will wrestle, and Cassidy will beat Moxley again. Then Cassidy takes the power back. Moxley said a couple years ago that while everyone else was playing checkers, Cassidy and Moxley were playing chess. There are still some pawns that Cassidy has to get rid of. One in particular is Wheeler Yuta. Next week, Cassidy and Yuta will wrestle, and Cassidy will remove the pawn that lets him take the king. Yuta says he is no one’s pawn, but Claudio tells him to stop talking.
Moxley says if Cassidy wants Yuta next week, we’ll see if Cassidy has the guts to pull the trigger on someone he thought was his friend. Either way, at Full Gear, Moxley only has one message for Cassidy, for his friends, and for anyone else who wants what he has. November 23rd, abandon all hope! The Maniac now leads his Death Riders away into the night. Will Moxley be on top of AEW then, now and forever? Or will- WAIT, someone in a Sting mask jumps from the vomitorium and CLOBBERS Moxley, Yuta & Claudio! It’s DARBY! Darby Allin fires hands on Claudio, Yuta goes after Darby, and now Conglomeration joins in!
The fans fire up as the brawl goes into the hallway! Yuta has Cassidy in a SLEEPER! Marina escorts Moxley away while Claudio drags Darby into the back! Conglomeration focuses on helping Cassidy and Darby, but our cameras follow Moxley. Moxley and Marina get in their truck, Claudio has caught up, but where’s Yuta? Too late, the truck takes off! Wait, Darby LEAPS into the truck bed! The truck stops, Claudio gets out to go after Darby and the brawl is on again! Claudio RAMS Darby into the side of the truck, then all the way into the garage door! Claudio SWINGS Darby around, and back into the garage door!
The Swiss Superman leaves Darby behind, but the Death Riders barely wait for Yuta to hop in the back before taking off again. Darby shouts, “Where’re you going, Claudio!? I’m still standing!” Darby leans against the garage door, Cassidy & Mark help him back up. The Death Riders have fled into the night, but will they make sure to stay away until Full Gear?
Backstage interview with The Learning Tree.
Renee is now with Chris Jericho, Bryan Keith & “Big Bill” Morrissey as she brings up Tomohiro Ishii officially challenging Jericho for the ROH World Championship. It will be in two weeks, Dynamite in Chicago, will Jericho accept? Bill says, “Challenge? As the Learning Tree always says, a person’s true self is not seen in moments of glory, but in moments of hardship and challenge.” Jericho says, “Well said, Redwood. And thanks, Renee. Ishii, I’ve got a soft spot for you because we’ve known each other for almost 30 years, ever since we were both working for Genshiro Tenryu in WAR in Japan.
“Albeit, I was a huge main event star, and you were nothing more than a rookie, a Young Boy. You used to get me coffee, carry my bags, and even wash my back in the shower. Hahaha! But Ishii, you’ve gone on to become one of the toughest and best pro-wrestlers in the world. I should know, because it was only two years ago that we had a classic match, one of my favorite in AEW, and one of the toughest I’ve ever had, also in Chicago. So it’s only apropos that in two weeks on Dynamite, we’re gonna face each other. I do accept your challenge, Ishii, for the ROH World Championship, Jericho VS Ishii.
“But I’ve gone on to bigger and better things, as well. Because now, I’ve become the Nueve.” Jericho, Keith & Bill all hold up nine fingers. Jericho reminds us he is a NINE-TIME world champion, and a TWO-TIME ROH World Champion. So now, Jericho will invoke the glory and courage of great ROH champions of the past, like Jay Briscoe. And he’ll do that while teaching Ishii a lesson that he won’t forget, ever again. Keith says in the Windy City, Jericho blows Ishii’s dumb ass away! Jericho says truer words have never been spoken. Thanks, guys! But will Jericho have very little to be thankful after the Stone Pitbull takes a bite out of him?
Britt Baker VS Penelope Ford!
The Doctor is in, and she’s looking to get one more win to prove she’s back in top form. But will she be primed for a shot at the gold in time for Full Gear? Or will Mrs. Superbad take out her frustrations here tonight?

But as Mina holds the glass out to Renee, Harley Cameron steps in, snatches the glass, and chugs it in one go! Harley tells Mina that some would say Mina is the Harley Cameron of Japan.

The Realest has certainly heard everything everyone else has had to say about him, from The Hurt Syndicate to even a former friend in The Bad Child. But will Swerve have to show Lio and Lashley whose house this is? Or will it just be Swerve’s Final Hour?
The bell rings, Nana leads the fans in a chant of “Whose House?” “SWERVE’S HOUSE!” while Swerve and Lio talk some trash. Swerve says Lio should’ve just listened to him, but Lio shoves Swerve.

RAN- NO, Swerve stops that to then bring Lio to steps! Lio slips free, runs back up, but Swerve pops him up! Lio lands safe on the steps, then jumps back to POISON-RANA to the floor! Lio hurries into the ring, builds speed, and he DIVES! Down goes Swerve and the fans fire up again! Lio puts Swerve in, “This is Awesome as Lio climbs. Lio hits the FINAL HOUR!! Cover, TWO!! Not so final after all and Lio cannot believe it!
The fans rally up as hard as they can, and Lio storms around. Lio says it’s time! Rebound and RUSH- NO, Swerve stops the stunner with a half nelson! Lio pries that hold open but Swerve fires body shots. Swerve lifts, Lio victory rolls, hand on ropes! Nana points that out, the ref stops his count, and Swerve rolls Lio back. Half nelson, but Lio arm-drags free! BASEMENT ENZIGIRI! Lio hurries to a corner, goes up and up, but Swerve stops the rana this time! Wheelbarrow, into the half nelson! BIG PRESSURE!! Cover, Swerve wins!
Winner: Swerve Strickland, by pinfall
Whether or not this proves The Realest is the most dangerous, it shows he is resilient! Nana hands a mic to Swerve, and Swerve says everyone has the bright idea that now that Swerve is back, they should go after the baddest man, the former AEW World Champion. They wanna use Swerve’s name, equity and accolades to prove a point. Lio tried and failed. A couple weeks ago, Shelton Benjamin tried and failed! Seems like Swerve has to remind a lot of people whose house this is! That leads Swerve to Bobby Lashley. Like it says, Full Gear, but Swerve feels like he needs a fight with Lashley tonight! Lashley, take your ass out here right now! Swerve ain’t running, and there’s nowhere to hide!
Well here comes The Hurt Syndicate! MVP accompanies Lashley, mic in hand, but where is the Standard of Excellence? MVP tells Swerve, “If you want a fight with a member of The Syndicate, all you gotta do is ask me and I’ll set it up for ya.” Because see, The Syndicate likes Swerve a lot. And the reason they’re recruiting him is because he has so much unrealized potential. But one of the things they’ll teach Swerve… Well, maybe Lashley is ready to fight right now! The jacket is off and the sleeves are rolled up! Maybe we don’t have to wait two weeks. But there is still a lesson to learn: There is strength in numbers.
Swerve forgot that lesson, but he’ll remember. SHELTON ATTACKS FROM BEHIND! The fans boo but Shelton TOSSES Swerve out, for Lashley to CLOBBER! Lashley brings Swerve up, THRWOS him into railing, then hauls him up for knees! The fans boo as Lashley CLUBS Swerve, then THROWS him into more railing! Shelton stares Nana down while Lashley throws Swerve back into the ring. Shelton hits a DDT on Swerve! MVP CHOKES Nana with the walking stick! Nana sputters as Lashley hits a MILE HIGH SPINEBUSTER on Swerve! Lashley makes Nana watch as the HURT LOCK is clamped on!
Swerve sputters, fades, and both Swerve and Nana are going out! Refs rush up but Shelton keeps them back. Lashley drops Swerve, and MVP lets Nana crawl to him. The Hurt Syndicate step out, security keeping a safe distance. But wait! Lashley grabs Nana now! Lashley POSTS Nana! Nana tumbles to steps then floor and the fans can’t believe it! Even Lio, watching from afar, is a bit stunned. But is this what it means to do business with the Hurt Syndicate?
Backstage interview with Jamie Hayter.
Renee is with the former AEW Women’s World Champion, and Hayter says Renee looks “smashing.” Renee says right back at Hayter. But congrats on the win over Penelope Ford, so what is next? Hayter says that is a question on everyone’s lips. Because did we not think Hayter would win last week? Did Hayter not do what she said she would? And she’ll continue to do what she says she’ll do, because it is no secret that Hayter is back to right wrongs. She did some of the wrongs, but that’s for the future. For the right now, Hayter is thinking of coming after one thing. Wait, the lights go out? And a phone rings.
Julia Hart wakes up! She has a red spot on her shirt, over her heart. The phone is there, and rather old school. Julia picks up the phone, asks who it is, and it’s Brody King! He says it’s time to come home. What does he mean “come home?” She doesn’t even know where she is, there’s a blood stain on her shirt and… the phone isn’t even connected…! The lights flicker, Julia stands up but is very dizzy. She washes up, head pounding, and then the lights turn red. Julia looks down the hall and the light comes from behind a closet’s double doors. She opens the doors to see the source. The bow, the arrows, the hat…
The Princess of the Black Throne is coming home, and has she already made Hayter into the hunted?

A valiant effort from FTR, and Private Party pours one out for them. Brody & Malakai show respect by helping FTR to their feet, and they all shake hands. But now, that means only one spot remains. Will it be The Acclaimed or La Faccion Ingobernable that joins the Full Gear Fatal 4 Way?
My Thoughts:
A great Dynamite here, and it really flew by in the middle with how they used all the story overlaps as very clear segues. Ospreay and Kyle had a great promo, and of course it turned into a brawl with the Don Callis Family and growing new United Empire or whatever it is. Kyle and Mark hesitating to fight was another good touch, and then Roddy going out there to start his match with Archer was good stuff. Falls Count Anywhere let them at least make good use of the main crowd side, and some good overbooking with The Kingdom having to counteract Cage. Great win for Roddy, and then great segue right into Cole VS Takeshita.
While I only stumbled upon the possibility last Saturday, only ONE person winning the MJF Challenge was a good choice. Cole loses out to Takeshita but it was protected because of the diamond ring helping Takeshita cheat. And we did get a good detail of Kyle coming out to make the save, and even Ricochet getting his shot in on Takeshita. Ricochet VS Takeshita is of course still the title plan there, but this was a good tease that maybe Kyle goes back to the Undisputed Kingdom. Or at the very least, Conglomeration and Kingdom work together against the Heel factions of Callis Family and Death Riders in a massive, Avengers: Endgame level match.
Speaking of, very good promos from Moxley and Orange Cassidy tonight, but when they said Moxley was taking over the TBS SuperStation, I thought they were going to film some “on location” thing and it’d be aired here on the tron. Guess they were trying to harken back to WCW and nWo with just a catchphrase or subtitle and then not do anything like that. But that aside, good brawl with Darby and the purple Sting mask jumping in. I like the details here where Yuta really is bottom of the food chain. Claudio told Yuta to shut up, the Death Rider truck almost took off without him, Yuta really needs to realize Moxley doesn’t care. But at this rate, it feels like Yuta will just double down his loyalty and that’s what costs Cassidy at Full Gear.
Great opening tag match from Bang Bang Gang VS Hangman & Christian, especially with Hook dragging Nick Wayne away and brawling with him. It still didn’t tip things in favor of Bang Bang Gang given Kip and Mother Wayne were still ringside. That puts the pressure on White going towards Full Gear, but the go-home segment will really tell us how White VS Hangman plays out. Great backstage segment with Mone, Kamille and Kris. Mone should be careful how she treats Kamille, because even one handed, Kamille is bigger and stronger. Though, Kris proved she’s as strong as them both breaking that wall. Sadly, this is all leaning towards Mone retaining at Full Gear.
Good match from Britt and Ford but of course Britt won. Deeb showing up was interesting, but a match or two from Deeb and Britt could do some good to get Britt headed for a title. Hayter was of course going to say she wants a title shot, but from Julia Hart interrupting with her own vignette, Hayter VS Hart seems like the feud that helps set one of them up for the title shot. And good promo from Mina (did she do something to her eyebrows?) and Harley. Harley is shaking off losing to Thunder Rosa to now lose to Mina. But Mina will be there on Collision as Mariah May defends her title one more time against Anna Jay, and maybe now we’ll get on the road to Mariah VS Mina.
Good promo from Jericho and his Learning Tree, and I guess it’s fine that Thanksgiving Eve Dynamite is the ROH World Championship match. ROH Final Battle won’t be until December so they can’t stretch things out that long, and it feels like the title is staying with Jericho anyway, so a cheated finish on a TV match is fine. Great stuff with the Hurt Syndicate, such as MVP’s promo with Lashley, and we got an awesome match out of Swerve VS Lio. Swerve gets a great win, but then the Syndicate of course get Swerve in a trap and beat him down. As it stand, Swerve probably turns things around next week, only to lose at Full Gear.
And awesome tag team main event from FTR VS House of Black. I’m a little surprised FTR lost, but I guess it keeps #FTRunners from having drama when they only just became friends. Plus, this is something The House of Black has needed. It’s been a bit of time since they had the trios titles, and while I don’t think Private Party loses the tag titles, just being in this Fatal 4 is a step in the right direction for Malakai & Brody. And with Julia on her way back, maybe the House of Black will rise up and get some new belts now.
My Score: 8.9/10

Giulia & Stephanie Vaquer VS Lash Legend & Jakara Jackson!
The Beautiful Madness & Dark Angle were still on the winning side last week, though not for lack of trying from Meta Four’s leading ladies. Will the Bougie Bully & Miss Jackson do better now that it’s 2v2? Or will Giulia & Vaquer be the ones putting on the brakes?

The fans fire up as Vaquer & Giulia shake hands to DOUBLE ELBOW DROP! Cover, TWO! Jakara shows she’s tough, too, but Vaquer brings her around.

The fans rally, Vaquer fights up, and Vaquer powers up to spin things around, only for Jakara to spin it right back around! Jakara then ripcords and whips Vaquer to the corner. Vaquer BOOTS Jakara, HEADBUTTS Lash, then goes up and over Jakara! Roll and hot tag to Giulia! The fans fire up as Giulia SHOTGUNS Jakara! Gijuila fires off hands!

Jakara was ready for action but no one could stare down that double barrel and survive! Will Giulia & Vaquer prove together or apart, they are going to run NXT? Blake Howard interviews them in the ring and says they’ve been a great team. But for the next few weeks, they’ll each be in an Iron Survivor Challenge qualifier. The question is: If they both make it to Deadline, what can we expect to see? Giulia says she knew this day would come. Vaquer says, “See you at Deadline.” The amigas area ready to fight it out for the gold, will either of them win that 25 minute marathon?
2024 Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge Qualifier: Cora Jade VS Sol Ruca!
Speaking of that grueling golden opportunity, #GenerationJade and the Sol Surfer want that first spot! Will Cora prove she’s back and better than ever? Or will Sol finally catch that wave and ride it to the top?
NXT returns and Cora makes her entrance. The bell rings and Cora hops up on a corner as a defense. The fans rally for Sol while Cora pouts. Cora hops down, storms up on Sol, but Sol gets around, tripos Cora, but Cora narrowly avoids the superkick. Sol hops up on a corner to taunt Cora now. The fans fire up, and Cora says clever. Get down! Sol says make her. Cora storms up but sol gets around her again, for a BIG lift and FACEBUSTER! Sol then stands on Cora to surf! The fans cheer as Sol pops ‘n’ locks then hops off, to SUPERKICK! Cora flounders, Sol whips her to ropes, but Cora reverses. Sol holds ropes but Cora SHINING WIZARDS!
The fans boo Cora but she runs to DOUBLE STOMP! Cover, TWO! Sol stays in this and goes to ropes, but Cora storms up. Cora bumps Sol off buckles, then again, then she stomps a mudhole in. The ref counts, Cora lets off, but then she comes back to put Sol on ropes. The fans rally but Cora CHOKES Sol! Cora runs side to side to ELBOW Sol in the back! Cover, TWO!

Cover, Sol wins!
Winner: Sol Ruca, by pinfall (advances to the Iron Survivor Challenge)
Cora was talking a big game, but it all caught up to her! Sol punches her ticket, will she be the one going for gold in 2025?
Je’Von Evans & Cedric Alexander talk backstage.
They just saw as we all did, Sol is the first woman to qualify for Deadline. If Je’Von beats Lexis King, he’s locked in. If Cedric beats Wes Lee, Cedric’s locked in. It’ll be tough, but they’ll LOCK IN~! They head out, and we see Karmen Petrovic talking with Dion Lennox. Karmen shares that her favorite color is yellow, but who doesn’t like yellow? It’s such a nice color. That is, until Ashante THEE Adonis and his yellow beanie had to go and distract her during her match. Uh-huh… Oh, wait, what was the question again? Color. Right, right. Red’s her new favorite color. Cool. Because of that beanie? Yeah.
Brinley Reece walks in and hopes Karmen is not talking about Adonis. No! No no no. Karmen is getting to know Dion. Dion, what else do you wanna know? Uh… Adonis storms in and asks Karmen, “Really?” This is what they’re doing now? With his best friend of all people! Dion says hold on, when were they best friends? Bruh, since last week, remember? Dion says this is just about them getting involved in each other’s matches. Brin says truth. Dion suggests they should try to be a tag team so they can learn to work together. What? Brin likes that idea! Is Dion free next week? Cuz Brin is. Dion says sure, but-
Karmen asks what Brin’s up to. Brin says Karmen knows she wants to. Adonis says Karmen knows she wants to. Karmen tells him not to tell her what to do. Dion is worried already. But the mixed tag challenge is set! Will Adonis & Karmen be a modern Beauty & The Beast? Or is this going to be a more tragic love story?
Ava Raine holds an NXT Tag Team Division meeting.
We have OTM, Hank ‘n’ Tank, Tyson & Tyriek, Myles & Heights, The D’Angelo Family, and even Gallus, all in the boardroom. Ava says she has invited them all here to discuss the state of the tag division. Recently, Fraxiom has been retaining their titles, but she is looking for the next team to step up. Everyone speaks up, but what is Josh Briggs doing here? Ava wants every man in here to show the world what this division is about. They all have the background to succeed. Gallus are former NXT UK & NXT Tag Team Champions. Hank ‘n’ Tank are each D1 NCAA Football standouts. Myles Borne is a D1 NCAA Wrestler and Tavion Heights is an Olympian.
Ty & Ty could shotput cars over the building any day they want. And The D’Angelos… make people disappear. Whoa, whoa, Ava. Allegedly. But Tank says let’s get after it. HONK HONK. Tavion says they’re just teacher’s pets. Lucien Price says he & Bronco Nima will make them think twice about putting two singles guys against the champs. Ty & Ty say don’t talk about what you can’t back up. The teams all bicker but Ava says yes, this is the energy she wants. But don’t tell her, show her! Meeting adjourned. The teams head out, but who heads up the ladder towards the Undeniable Truth & Jersery Island Rocket?
2024 Men’s Iron Survivor Challenge Qualifier: Wes Lee VS Cedric Alexander!
The corrupted Cardiac Kid couldn’t crush Je’Von’s hopes, but maybe he can get some payback taking out “Uncle Ceddy.” Will Wes make Deadline must-see? Or will PRIMED Alexander be locked in?
NXT returns and Cedric makes his entrance. The bell rings and the two circle. They tie up as fans rally, and Cedric shoves Wes down. Wes gets up and Cedric eggs him on. The two reset, tie up, and Cedric again shoves Wes back. Wes is annoyed but Cedric steps right to him. Wes uses ropes as defense so Cedric backs off. The two reset, tie up, but Wes waistlocks, headlocks, and grinds the hold. Cedric powers up but can’t power out. Cedric slips out the back to wrangle Wes with a headlock of his own. Cedric thrashes the hold and Wes flails. The fans rally, Wes fights around, and rolls to a cover. ONE, and Cedric holds on.
Wes fights up to his feet, powers up and puts Cedric on ropes. The ref counts, Wes lets off slowly, and he swings! Cedric dodges to headlock. Cedric hits a takeover, and he grinds Wes down again. Wes endures, fights up, and powers Cedric down. Wes fires a body shot, then cartwheels to have an armlock. Wes wrenches, wristlocks, but Cedric rolls, rolls, and handsprings.

Cedric writhes, Wes runs and handsprings, but Cedric DROPKICKS Wes upside-down! The fans are thunderous while both men are down! Cedric rises, shakes out the bad arm, and he winds up to CHOP! Wes staggers but Cedric CHOPS him down! Wes gets up, Cedric CHOPS him again! Cedric brings Wes up to CHOP and whip, to then kitchen sink knee! And basement DROPKICK! Cedric kips up and fires up, and the fans are with him! Wes flounders to the apron, so Cedric goes out to join him!
Cedric catches Wes to an APRON URENAGE! Wes flounders back in, the fans duel, and Cedric lines up the shot. GET OVER HERE! Cover, TWO!! Wes survives the tornado flatliner but the fans know “This is Awesome!” Cedric brings Wes up, suplexes, but Wes blocks! Wes wrenches free, but ducks a lariat! Ripcord and SUPERKICK! And then mule kick! Wes handsprings for the CARDIAC KICK!! Cover, TWO?!? Wes is as shocked as anyone that Cedric survives! Wes seethes as he drags Cedric to a drop zone. Wes climbs, aims, and 450- NO, Wes bails out as Cedric moves! Wes turns around into a LARIAT!
The fans are thunderous and Cedric rises again. Cedric storms over to Wes, waistlocks, but Wes grabs a buckle pad! The pad comes lose, Cedric back suplexes, but Wes lands out! Wes throws the pad at Cedric but it’s just a pillow. Cedric scoops, MICHINOKU DRIVER! The ref’s busy with the buckle pad! Late count on the cover, TWO!! Wes survives and Cedric cannot believe it! The fans boo the ref but Cedric just goes to a corner. Cedric focuses, runs up, but Wes drop toeholds him into the bare buckle! The fans boo but Wes takes advantage of the situation! METEORA!! Cover, Wes wins!
Winner: Wes Lee, by pinfall (advances to the Iron Survivor Challenge)
The Cardiac Kid is crafty, turning opportunity into victory! Will he do it all over again at Deadline?
Tony D’Angelo enjoys a nice dinner.
He asks if that thing at the docks was handled. All done, boss. Good. But in steps Shawn Spears & Brooks Jensen. The Don sighs and says he doesn’t like this new obsession Spears has. The Chair Man says it is called being persistent. Yeah, persistently annoying. Well, get used to it, Tony. Spears doesn’t care if he’s The Don, it’s Tony’s other title Spears wants. Tony dismisses his men, and Spears says he’s seen all sorts of guys come in here, sit in Tony’s chair, attack Tony, turn the place upside-down. Spears has let Tony’s disrespect slide twice. There will not be a third. Oh, Spears let Tony slide?
Tony will cut to the chase. Spears wants the North American Championship, right? Spears says Tony’s built one hell of a family, especially after winning the title. The family has been motivated to grow, but Spears feels that title will do the same for him. Tony reminds Spears it took him three YEARS and slaying a monster in Oba Femi to get this title. Yes, Tony played Oba. Good for him. Tony’s stronger than ever. Which is why Brooks Jensen is the one to challenge for the belt. Tony says Spears is a weird guy. He wants a title shot for someone else? Why not think for yourself, kid? Why’s Jensen always following someone else?
Jensen gets heated but Spears has him stand down. Spears doesn’t question how The Don does things, so The Don should not question The Chair Man. Tony says it is smart, having the kid fight Spears’ battles. Spears says intelligence only gets us so far. The difference between Spears and everyone else is that he is starving. The most successful people are hungry to be more, to do more, to have more. And the only thing in NXT that will satisfy Spears’ appettite is the North American Championship. Now… thank you for your time. Spears & Jensen head out, but when and where will they get their shot at The Don?
In the parking lot, Spears tells Jensen that is how you deal with the boss. Isn’t that right, Nico? Yes, it is. Wait, who is this now on Spears’ side? Is The Chair Man’s influence growing in the shadows of NXT?
Backstage interview with Kelani Jordan.
Byron Saxton is with The Standout and notes tonight is her rematch for the Women’s North American Championship against Fallon Henley. Her thoughts? Kelani has been waiting for this since Halloween Havoc. The moment that bell rings, Kelani’s right on Fallon. It doesn’t matter if Jacy’s there, if Jazmyn’s there, if they hop on the apron, they can all get it! All she knows is, she’s getting her title back! But speaking of Jacy & Jazmyn, they step in and Jazmyn mockingly asks, “Will you?” Because Kelani is a great athlete and all, but she is not beating Fallon. And if for whatever reason Fallon can’t get it done, Jacy & Jazmyn will make sure she does.
The Fatal Influence heads out, but Kelani says it’s on sight! Will the inaugural Women’s North American Champion become the TWO-TIME champion tonight? Or will she and NXT all be found under the influence?
Trick Williams is here!
The fans fire up as Tricky Two-Time Two-Time is back, and he grabs the mic to echo Booker T. But Trick knows we already know, Philly was crazy last week. With Deadline around the corner, just a reminder, that was when Trick had the Iron Survivor Challenge and things looked real good for Trick Willy. The fans cheer that. But that’s not what Trick is here to talk about. Last week, Trick & Bubba put Ethan Page through a table, but no, that’s not what he is here to talk about, either. Trick is here to talk about Ridge Holland. Ridge pinned Trick and thinks he got one over on him. Newsflash, Ridge: Trick Williams ain’t going out like that!
That is it say, get your punk- Chase U? Andre Chase comes down from the student section to apologize to Trick. Chase has no beef with Trick, but he still has beef with Ridge. Chase ain’t done with Ridge, not by a long shot. The fans cheer that and Trick knows that. After everything Ridge has done to Chase and Chase U, that’s clear. But as Trick thinks about it, even after everything Ridge did to Mr. Chase, Chase is still back on his feet. The fans cheer that. Trick says he hasn’t really known Chase well, but let’s all take a moment to recognize Mr. Chase for everything he’s done. The fans cheer that, and even chant, “Mr. Chase! Mr. Chase!”
Trick says Mr. Chase is a staple here in NXT. He’s done just about everything here. Well, okay, not everything. Trick hates to say it, but Chase ain’t had a shot at this title. So how about this? For one moment only, let’s forget what Ridge has done to Chase, and- Wait, here comes Yorkshire Grit. Ridge will not let this happen! Chase getting an NXT Championship title shot!? And Trick calls himself a champion?! Ridge steps into the ring while fans boo, but Ridge says Trick is just ducking Ridge to face a guy Ridge put in an ambulance! “Professor” needs to learn that Ridge has moved on. And Trick, Ridge made the famous ECW Arena fall dead silent when he pinned Trick!
We all know that Ridge is the biggest threat to the title! Chase says hold on, wait one second! After everything Ridge put Chase U through, Chase wants one more match! The fans cheer that! Ridge says nope. Chase says he’ll put the university on the line! If Ridge wins, it’ll be his! What!? Ridge says he doesn’t care about Chase’s little school. Chase gambled it away, won it back, and then some. The only thing Ridge cares about is the NXT Championship. Trick says hold on, he gets it. Ridge wants a chance at the title, and Chase wants his chance to whoop Ridge’s ass. Trick says here’s an idea: Let’s talk to Ava, and set up Ridge VS Chase! Winner goes on to Deadline!
The fans like the sound of that! Trick says he won’t lie, he’s pulling for Chase. After everything he’s been through and all the hard work, everything he’s overcome, with Chase U STILL here for him, with NXT here for him, that is a connection! A relationship! One with the people, with Duke Hudson, Riley Osborne & Thea Hail! Ridge says fine, he’ll take that. Wait, take what? All that Trick just said. If Ridge beats Chase, Chase’s friendships with Riley, Duke and Thea, it’s ALL GONE. Chase U will be gone, and Ridge will walk right into Deadline to challenge for the title while Chase has NOTHING.
For a man that could never win the big one, that’s quite the gamble, Mr. Chase. What’s he gonna do? The fans boo Ridge’s cruel stakes, and Chase is torn. But Chase says Ridge is on! Next week, Ridge gets an Andre Chase University sized ass whooping! Ridge DECKS Chase! Then he goes for Trick! Trick hits Ridge with a BOOKEND! The fans fire up and spell it out! “C! H! A! S! E! U!” Trick and Chase both stomp it out, and Ridge runs away! But will Ridge do far more than just win a title opportunity next week?
Jaida Parker speaks.
“Okay, Sol, I see you. Congrats, baby, you qualified. But best believe that’s the closest you get to being called the Iron Survivor. Because I know whoever they put in front of me, I will qualify, and I will have my hand raised, just like last week when I smashed that brick on Lola’s skull. So to Sol and whatever three other little ladies end up in that ring with me, it don’t matter if I start, if I come in the middle of the match, or if I’m in last, Jaida Parker is gonna finish it and leave Deadline as THE Iron Survivor. Clock it.”
Josh Briggs speaks with Ava Raine.
Briggs says that during his time in Japan for Pro-Wrestling Noah, Yoshiki Inamura really impressed him. Inamura thanks Josh-san, and says that it is his honor to be part of an NXT show. But wait, Eddie Thorpe barges in. He’s sick of being blown off! First was the stuff with Rhea Ripley, then with last week’s Deadline announcement. He just needs five minutes, please. Ava apologizes to Briggs & Inamura, they leave, and Ava wants Eddie to understand. Eddie says she doesn’t understand. He needs something! Yes, she does understand, which is why he’s in an Iron Survivor Challenge qualifier.
Eddie thanks Ava for this, heads out, but who will the Alpha Wolf have to make it through if he wants that golden ticket?
Adriana Rizzo VS Nikkita Lyons!
The Don has a target on his back, but Big Rizz is dealing with the one put on hers by the Lyoness. Will Rizzo win big for The Family? Or will Lyons’ roar be deafening?
NXT returns and Rizzo makes her entrance. The bell rings and the two run up to tie up. Lyons puts Rizzo on ropes, Rizzo slips away, and Rizzo SLAPS Lyons! The fans fire up but Lyons is pissed! Lyons KICKS Rizzo, puts her on the apron, but Rizzo RAMS in! Rizzo slingshots up and over, but Lyons stays up. Lyons drags Rizzo right up, they fire forearms back and forth, but Rizzo gets the edge! Rizzo rabbit punches, then she shoves Lyons into a corner! Rizzo DROPKCISK Lyons, runs in, but is put back on the apron. Lyons stops the shoulder tackle this time to CLUB Rizzo! Rizzo Rizzo stays up to hit back!
Rizzo climbs, leaps, but Lyons sidesteps! FULL NELSON! Rizzo flails, so Lyons thrashes her against the ropes! The ref reprimands, but Lyons drags Rizzo to center. Rizzo endures as Lyons throws her around more. The fans rally up but Lyons SLAMS Rizzo down! Lyons stalks Rizzo to a corner, taunts her, then RIPCORD SUPLEXES her! Cover, TWO! Rizzo stays in this but Lyons drags her up again. Lyons whips, but Rizzo manages to reverse! Lyions botty bumps in return! Lyons has Rizzo in ropes, then HIP ATTACKS again and again! The fans are torn as Rizzo flops back. Lyons storms back in to cover, TWO!
Lyons stays on Rizzo with a seated full nelson. The fans rally for Rizzo as she endures, but Lyons thrashes her around. Rizzo fights up, the fans rally, but Lyons wrangles her back down. Rizzo keeps fighting, even as Lyons leans on her. Lyons taunts Rizzo but Rizzo is up again! Rizzo powers up to arm-drag free! The fans fire up but Lyons hurries after Rizzo. Rizzo UP KICKS! And then ELBOWS Lyons! Rizzo runs to throw forearm after forearm! Lyons staggers around, Rizzo knocks her over! Rizzo goes to suplex, but that’s too much Lyons to lift! Rizzo dodges a haymaker to springboard CROSSBODY!
The fans fire up as Rizzo kips up! Rizzo roars, runs, and THESZ PRESS! Fast hands rain down, then Rizzo covers, TWO! Lyons stays in this but Rizzo covers again, TWO! Rizzo whips, Lyons reverses. Lyons runs up but into a BOOT! Rizzo goes up, up and leaps, FLYING THESZ PRESS! But Lyons rolls through! HEEL KICK! Rizzo flounders and Lyons goes to the corner. Lyons climbs, roars, and then hits the LYONS ROAR! Cover, Lyons wins!
Winner: Nikkita Lyons, by pinfall
Rizzo put up a fight, but her lionheart could not stop Nikkita’s lion strength! Wait, Rizzo gets the trust crowbar! CLONK! Down goes Lyons! That’s how they do it in the D’Angelo neighborhoods! Rizzo says now they’re even! Will Rizzo let Lyons have this win if it means parting ways?
Andre Chase returns backstage.
And Chase U runs up to ask what the hell! Putting the school on the line? What’s that about? Chase tells Riley & Thea that high risk means high reward. Duke asks how that worked out last time. They’ve had his back through it all, but this is too much! Chase says he appreciates and values their opinions, but Chase U was built on taking risks. Like taking a risk on a smug Aussie when no one else would trust him, and that man became MVP. Or how about a young lady who became a grown-ass woman? Or even a prospect from the UK that now soars with the highest of fliers? Bring it in.
Chase U huddles up, and Mr. Chase says they’ve been through it all, and together. He won’t let anyone or anything break them up. As far as Chase personally, he’s never had an NXT Championship match. Next week, Chase gets that opportunity. And then Chase U will ride the highest of highs, just trust him. Mr. Chase heads out, and Duke says this could end up the lowest of lows. Riley says Chase is gambling with their future, again. Thea is speechless as she shakes her head. But will the gamble pay off? Or will Ridge ruin what little Andre Chase has left?
Zaria speaks.
“Some say I’m a mystery. From where I’m standing, there is no mystery. I’m a fearless warrior, a destructive force, that has come to NXT to rip and tear. Iron Survivor Challenger. Five superstars entrenched in combat to see who is left standing when the clock runs out. My kind of fun. I enjoy inciting chaos. I thrive in carnage! And after Deadline, there will be no more mystery to who is Zaria.” The Agent of Change is ready to earn a spot, will she go all the way to earn a title shot against Roxanne Perez?
2024 Men’s Iron Survivor Challenge Qualifier: Je’Von Evans VS Lexis King!
The Young OG was hoping Unc was gonna make it through, but Wes Lee had different plans. Will Je’Von get even with Wes by also qualifying? Or will the Drama King finally head for the throne of NXT?
NXT returns and Lexis makes his entrance. The bell rings and the two tie up. Lexis rolls Je’Von, ONE, but Je’Von sunset flips! TWO, and Lexis goes for an arm. Lexis wrenches, wristlocks, but Je’Von rolls, kips up, cartwheels, handsprings, and wrenches back to wristlock. Lexis fights up, rolls, cartwheels, then rolls, and KICKS Je’Von! The fans cheer, then things speed up. Lexis drops down, hurdles, but Je’Von leaps over. Then Je’Von springboards to roll Lexis up. TWO, and Lexis dodges. Lexis drops onto the drop down, O’Conner! TWO, and Je’Von trips Lexis! Cover, ONE! Lexis sweeps and covers, ONE!
The two reset and the fans cheer this technical exchange. They tie up. Je’Von headlocks, but Lexis pulls hair a bit. Lexis powers up and out, but Je’Von runs him over. Cover, TWO! Je’Von keeps moving, he handsprings over but Lexis RAMS low. Lexis waistlocks, Je’Von slips around to facelock, then he goes and BOUNCY RANAS! Lexis staggers up into a DROPKICK! Lexis bails out, the fans fire up, and Je’Von builds speed! Je’Von DIVES! Down goes Lexis at the ramp and the fans fire up more! Je’Von puts Lexis in, then springboards, but Lexis ducks under! Lexis wrenches, whips, but Je’Von reverses.
Lexis goes up and over, keeps moving, but Je’Von jumps, just not enough! Lexis accidently gets Je’Von in the OGs. Lexis wants to cover off the mishap, but the good guy in him says no, that’s not fair. Lexis lets Je’Von catch his breath while NXT goes to break.
NXT returns again and Lexis has Je’Von in a HALF CRAB! The fans rally for Je’Von as he endures, and he fights to turn over. Je’Von kicks at Lexis with his free leg, and Lexis staggers back. Je”von swings, Lexis gets around to back supelx. Je’Von lands out to CHOP! And CHOP! And whip! Lexis reverses, Je’Von LARIATS! The fans fir eup as Je’Von rallies with elbows, then goe sMatrix to STUNNER! Je’Von holnds on to then turn and suplex! Kip up and the fans fire up! Je’Von goes to the corner, to the apron, and he springboards back in, FLYING CROSSBODY! Cover, TWO! Lexis survives but Je’Von stays focused.
Je’Von goes up a corner, takes aim, and he MOON- NO, he has to roll through as Lexis moves! Lexis SUPERKICKS! Cover, TWO!! Je’Von survives that shot and Lexis taunts him, “Who’s the best now?!” Lexis SLAPS Je’Von, so Je’Von SLAPS back! The fans rally as they fire forearms back and forth. Lexis CHOPS, Je’Von SUPER PUNCHES! Lexis BOOTS Je’Von, but Je’Von REBOUND ENZIGIRIS! The fans fire up as Je’Von goes up and up and FIVE STAR FROG SPLASHES!! Cover, TWO!! Je’Von hurries to bring Lexis up! Leixs wrenches, hops on, BACKSTABBER! Then Lexis half nelsons, fisherman, BUSTER!! Cover, TWO!!!
The fans fire up as Je’Von survives! Lexis grows frustrated but the fans love “NXT! NXT!” making this the match. Lexis runs up, into a SUPERKICK from Je’Von! Je’Von goes up, up and SKY TWISTER! Cover, Je’Von wins!
Winner: Je’Von Evans, by pinfall (advances to the Iron Survivor Challenge)
A standing ovation for The Young OG and Drama King, but better than this match is Je’Von showing Lexis respect. Lexis shows it back and the two hug it out. Will Je’Von make sure to bounce his way right to the top of NXT with Deadline?
Nathan Frazer & Axiom are watching backstage.
The NXT Tag Team Champions have to admit, that was good. Wes Lee and Je’Von Evans are the first two into the Iron Survivor Challenge, that match is shaping up. Plus, Ava had her talk with the tag division so- Frazer says that is down the line. Maybe now is a good a time as any to say… Frazer talked with Ava, he’s got a qualifier! Pretty cool, right? Axiom asks, “What?!” Uh, what does he mean, “What?” Frazer’s gonna win his way into the Iron Survivor, win the Iron Survivor, then win the NXT Championship. Axiom can’t believe this is happening again! Every team in NXT is breathing down their neck and Frazer wants to be in the Iron Survivor!?
Frazer wants Axiom to calm down. It’s not like they won’t be working out together. Plus, Axiom has been in that match before, so maybe he could give Frazer some tips. Axiom has a headache. Well, take a deep breath and think about it. Frazer leaves before Axiom can say more, and OTM steps in. His tag partner’s after singles gold now? Is everything good? That doesn’t sit right with Price & Nima. But Stacks & Luca step in to say OTM should mind their own business. Worry about yourselves! Refs hurry in before this goes from arguing to fighting, but will OTM and The Family be first to fight for a title shot?
Adonis and Dion talk backstage.
This Mixed Tag thing… Did Dion tell Karmen about Megan, Kesha and Samantha, did he? No! See? That’s why he’s Adonis’ boy. Oh, so now they’re boys again? Adonis says don’t even worry about that, let’s go. Dion follows Adonis, and Lexis storms in with some frustration. Another loss… But Hank ‘n’ Tank walk over to say Lexis did good out there. Dante Chen walks in, too, and says that was indeed honorable. Lexis chose honor over glory, and that’s what matters. Just keep your head up. Lexis thanks the guys for saying that, but Gallus walks in. Wolfgang says they’re handing out pats on the back for losses now, eh? Pathetic.
With that attitude, Gallus has one less team to worry about. Oh, one less? No, Hank ‘n’ Tank are the team to worry about. They stepped up to The Good Brothers, they can step up to this. Lexis has everyone settle down, but the tag division is at a boiling point. Who gets burned while the other ones head for gold?
NXT Women’s North American Championship: Fallon Henley w/ The Fatal Influence VS Kelani Jordan!
It literally took all three of them to take this title at Halloween Havoc, and it seems Jacy & Jazmyn are more than happy to make it all three of them again to keep it. Will Kelani be able to stand out and take back what was taken from her? Or is there no stopping the Fatal Influence?
The introductions are made, the belt is raised, and we see whose influence is stronger!
The bell rings and the two tie up. They go around, end up on ropes, and then end up in a corner. Fallon powers up but Kelani throws her down. They stay tied up, stand again, and now Fallon throws Kelani. The collar ‘n’ elbow is in there tight, and Kelani puts Fallon back on ropes. The ref counts, both women let go, but then they tie up again! Kelani arm-drags, leg sweeps, covers, ONE! Fallon arm-drags, but Kelani avoids a sweep! Fallon CHOPS, but that just pisses Kelani off! The fans rally up while the two argue. Fallon shoves, then dodges to headlock, Kelani powers up and out, CLOBBERS Fallon, and fans fire up again!
Kelani runs up, slingshot arm-drags, then DROP- NO, Fallon dodges! Fallon stands Kelani up to RAM her into the corner! And RAM her again! And again! The ref counts, Fallon stops, and then Fallon whips corner to corner. Kelani goes up but Fallon catches her, only for Kelani to swing and RANA! Fallon staggers up, into a DROPKICK! Fallon bails out, the fans rally for Kelani, and Kelani storms right up to ropes. Fallon moves as Kelani slingshots, so Kelani lands safe on the apron. But Fallon YANKS Kelani down, and SMACKS her off the desk! The fans boo but Kelani blocks the next bump to BACK HAND Fallon!
Kelani hops up onto the desk, to QUEBRADA Fallon down! The fans fire up and Kelani rises again. Kelani vows to get that belt back, and NXT goes to break.
NXT returns and Kelani fights a headlock. Kelani fires body shots, then arm-drags free. Fallon runs up, Kelani dodges and comes back, DOUBLE FACEBUSTERS bring them both down! The fans fire up while both women rise. Fallon ROCKS Kelani, Kelani ROCKS Fallon! Wait, a quick picture in picture shows Ty & Ty are now brawling with Myles & Heights! Forearms and haymakers everywhere, and back in the ring, Kelani has the edge! Kelani whips, then LARIATS! And LARIATS again! Cartwheel and BACK ELBOW! The fans fire up while both women are down, and then Kelani kips up! Jacy is mad but Kelani gets moving!
Kelani hits some ROLLING THUNDER SHOOTING STAR! Cover, TWO! Jacy is furious that Kelani hit that at all, but Kelani puts Fallon in a drop zone. But Fallon YANKS Kelani off the corner! Then Fallon goes up, up, and BLOCKBUSTERS! Fallon keeps moving, FACEBUSTER! Cover, TWO! Kelani toughs it out but Fallon drags her up. Fallon goes to suplex but Kelani RAMS her into a corner! Kelani puts Fallon up top, then she climbs to fire forearms! The fans fire up but Fallon shoves Kelani back. Kelani hurries to GAMANGIRI! Fallon wobbles, Kelani climbs! Kelani has Fallon up top for a SUPER SPANISH FLY! Cover, TWO!!
Fallon survives and Jacy can breathe again. Kelani shrugs it off, goes back up, and she 450- NO, Kelani rolls through as Fallon moves! Fallon then body scissor cradles! TWO!! Kelani escapes, Fallon hurries to her feet. Kelani wrenches Fallon around and around, ANGLE SLAM! Fallon is in a drop zone, Kelani hits the ONE OF A KIND SAULT! Cover, Jacy gives Fallon the ROPEBREAK!! The fans boo, only the ref missed that one! Kelani knows it, too! So she WRECKS Jacy with a dropkick! Jazmyn gets up, Kelani DUMPS her down! And SUPERKICKS! Fallon runs up, Kelani waistlocks! O’Conner Roll, TWO!
Kelani runs into Jacy’s ROLLING ELBOW!! Another cheat! FALLON FAMOUSER!! Cover, Fallon wins!
Winner: Fallon Henley, by pinfall (still NXT Women’s North American Champion)
They warned Kelani and then followed through, ALL THREE Influencers got involved to keep this title from Kelani! And if that’s how they operate, then- Wait, OTM snatch the mics. They tell Frazer, go ahead and try the Iron Survivor, because Price & Nima are gonna take those tag titles! A warning to the rest of this division: They’re not easy to find. Speaking of, Luca & Stacks go right after them! The fans fire up as this brawl happens right by the desk, and Price SLAMS Luca on the desk! But Luca’s right up to throw more hands! Cameramen get knocked over as GALLUS now joins in, incensed by OTM’s words! And here come Hank ‘n’ Tank!
The fans are fired up as the tag division brawls all over the desk and ringside area! Refs and security rush out here but fans want to “LET THEM FIGHT! LET THEM FIGHT!” And fight is what they’re all doing! Who rises up from the chaos to go for gold?
My Thoughts:
A great NXT to start towards Deadline, all thriller, no filler. Giulia & Vaquer VS Lash & Jakara was a great opening tag match, but naturally it was Giulia & Vaquer winning. They’re both getting Iron Survivor Challenge qualifiers, so I’m pretty sure they’re both getting in on that match. Great match from Sol and Cora, and it’s actually a little surprising Cora lost. At the same time, Sol’s been the go-to for big matches, she’ll make a solid part of this match. Good promo from Jaida to call Sol and pretty much everyone else out, and it feels like she’s also a shoe-in for entering the match. Then Zaria and her promo, she’s a shoe-in for the fifth, and this is going to be the best Iron Survivor match period.
The men’s match is still shaping up, though, with Wes and Je’Von bringing their grudge into the match. Great matches from Wes VS Cedric and Je’Von VS Lexis, especially with Lexis adding to his Face turn. Refusing to jump on an accidental low blow was a great touch, and I appreciated other superstars, such as past rival, Dante Chen, seeing the change Lexis is trying to make. Briggs bringing in Yoshiki Inamura from NOAH is cool, I’m sure we’ll see great things from Inamura. Eddy Thorpe getting an Iron Survivor qualifier, sadly feels like he might just be putting someone else over but I guess we’ll wait and see.
The D’Angelo Family was really busy tonight. Not only the tag division stuff, but Tony was properly confronted by Spears & Jensen tonight. That was definitely an interesting move for Spears to say Jensen gets the title shot, but obviously that’s because Spears still wants to be THE NXT Champion. And now with this “Nico” guy, Spears’ group could grow into a full faction with even a tag team and a female member to spread across the divisions. Rizzo VS Lyons was a really good match, but of course Lyons won the match for being that much bigger and stronger. Rizzo getting Lyons with the crowbar after was a great touch, though.
Great stuff in the tag division. Fraxiom has dysfunction again as Frazer still wants to try and grab singles gold. This has to be the time that costs them the gold and their friendship, they’ve dragged this out long enough. That tag brawl to end the show was awesome, I wonder if this leads to a gauntlet to win the title match. Or maybe a tournament? We did see teams kinda pair off and pick on each other, so those are easy first round match-ups right there. This can go the three weeks we have left so that it goes from 8 to 4 to 2, the finals being on the go-home and the winners immediately turning around to face Fraxiom on Saturday, December 7th.
Speaking of the closing, very good main event from Kelani and Fallon, but of course Jacy & Jazmyn influence the outcome. This is kind of textbook for any group Jacy’s ever been in, and unless we’re talking Zaria or another powerhouse, I don’t see someone taking this title from the Influence for some time. Well, either that or we get the Face flipside and have women who stick together to counter the Fatal Influence. Maybe Karmen and Brinley can try that, provided this story with Adonis doesn’t tear everyone apart. The Mixed Tag will be a good match, but I feel like Karmen and Adonis will be very dysfunctional and Dion & Brin win.
And really good stuff in this NXT Championship story. Trick wanting to give Chase a match is noble of him, but Ridge does have a point that Chase hasn’t exactly earned it when he always loses “the big one.” Chase putting the university, aka the faction, on the line is definitely big stuff. I can’t believe this could be the end of the honestly most entertaining group in NXT probably ever, a real silver-lining during NXT 2.0 and the nonsense Vince shoved into it. But maybe there will be a new silver lining that, should Chase lose, the members can break out and go for titles on their own, such as Duke for the NXT North American should Spears actually get that title off Tony.
My Score: 8.9/10
