NXT hears from Kay Lee Ray & Io Shirai.

KLR brings up how two weeks ago, Mandy Rose said she’d fight any woman in NXT for her title. She genuinely believes she’s the greatest in history. That is why KLR & Shirai knew she’d accept the Fatal 4 Way. There has never been a group like Toxic Attraction. They cost KLR her shot, they took out Zoey Stark, so these two teamed up to get payback. Toxic Attraction will crumble and it’ll be hilarious! KLR & Shirai are no strangers to being champions. Shirai has been both singles and tag champions, and KLR is the NXT UK Women’s Forever Champion! When KLR becomes champ here, she won’t need help like Mandy.

KLR will make sure the title is around the waist of the best in the world! Yeah, it’ll be Shirai. Um… Well okay. Shirai will win, even if it means beating KLR. Then KLR looks forward to seeing her try. Good luck. May the best woman win. These two can agree on that. But will they make sure not to let Mandy slip through their fingers?

 

Dakota Kai is looking for Wendy Choo.

Where is she? Dakota asks around but no one’s seen her. Oh no! Her body pillow is all torn up and her pajamas are here. What happened to Dakota’s sleepy time tag partner?

 

Ivy Nile finds Tatum Paxley in the Diamond Mine dojo.

What is she doing? Tatum was just helping out. Well no one asked her to do this. In Diamond Mine, they kick ass, not kiss ass. Now get out! Tatum still cleans up the mess. But will Diamond Mine accept Tatum one way or another?

 

Ivy Nile w/ Malcolm Bivens VS Tiffany Stratton!

One is tough as nails, the other likes to get her nails done. These two couldn’t be any more different, except in one way: they both want to win. Will Ivy break Tiffany and send her running home to daddy? Or will Tiffany find a way to shine brighter than Diamond Mine?

The bell rings, they knuckle lock and Ivy wrenches the wrists for a NORTHERN LIGHTS! Ivy keeps wrist control, Tiffany handsprings around and WRINGS Ivy out! Then STANDING MOONSAULT! Cover, TWO! Tiffany brings Ivy up, whips but Ivy blocks the hip toss. Tiffany blocks back, but then Ivy CLOBBERS Tiffany! Fans fire up while Tiffany crawls away. Ivy rushes over but into a knee! Tiffany says it’s her time! Tiffany runs to HIP ATTACK against ropes! Then she drags Ivy to center, jackknife! But Ivy rolls that back, ONE! Tiffany knees low, headlocks, and hits the takeover. Ivy fights up and fans rally.

Tiffany wrenches and wraps Ivy in a MILLION DOLLAR DREAM! Ivy endures, even as Tiffany thrashes her! Tiffany throws Ivy down while fans rally up. Tiffany blows a kiss but Ivy fires off KICK after KICK and then an ENZIGURI! Tiffany goes to a corner, Ivy runs in to forearm smash! Ivy goes around the world, CALF KICK! Ivy gets the legs, ties those up, CLUBS Tiffany and gets the arms, modified surfboard! Tiffany endures, so Ivy STOMPS her down! Tiffany bails out to check her face but Ivy puts her back in! Ivy reels Tiffany in but Tiffany LARIATS! Wait, that smoke! Tiffany knows what that means! IT’S SARRAY!

Tiffany shouts at Sarray that this is what she’ll do to her! But Ivy gets the DRAGON SLEEPER! Tiffany taps, Ivy wins!

Winner: Ivy Nile, by submission

Tiffany got bit by karma! The Warrior of the Sun gets back at her and the Diamond Mine’s tiny titan is climbing up the ranks! Will Tiffany have to settle things with Sarray before she can move on and up?

 

Tommaso Ciampa speaks.

“For a long time now, this has been my sanctuary. Not as much mine as it is ours. A place for us to connect. So let us connect.” When Ciampa first arrived, he had so much to prove. To his peers, to his fans, to his critics, and perhaps most of all, to himself. Now it’s been a long journey with the highest of highs and lowest of lows, and we’ve all been a part of it all. Something as public as winning the title or needing neck surgery. Something as private as his wife having five miscarriages or the eventual miracle of the birth of his daughter. Every triumph and tragedy, we were Ciampa’s confidants.

“Together, we overcame. Together, we created black ‘n’ gold magic. And now I hear all the whispers. Stand & Deliver just might be the end of an era. Well in Dallas, we will create that magic one final time.” Ciampa gets up a bit more calmly, as he puts the chair up. And on the chair, it reads, “9/9/2015 – 4/2/2022.” Will nearly seven years of NXT history be wrapped up in a bow? Or tarnished with a stain?

 

Dolph Ziggler speaks.

“Intercontinental Champion, United States Champion, tag team champion, Money in the Bank winner, Sole Survivor, world heavyweight champion.” And now, NXT Champion. The Show-Off says this isn’t just NXT 2.0, this is DZ 2.0! He just got back from Raw, and normally takes the car service, makes NXT relevant and jets back. But with Stand & Deliver, he’ll stay an extra half day in Orlando for media. Bron Breakker’s still a kid. He’s like a kid with a first time or a first kid. This is gonna be Ziggler’s 18th time for WrestleMania weekend, he knows what to expect. He is in the zone, and will be doing all the media. They wanna talk to him, not Bron.

To Ziggler, Bron won the title long before he should have. And to say he was champion, everyone should want to talk to Ziggler. Ziggler is associated with NXT, NXT is associated with him, everyone just needs to get on board. Is Bron doing interviews? Ziggler would love to hear what that guy has to say. But uh, no one knows who that kid is outside of Florida so maybe he’s doing local. Then Ziggler will do the others because he can, and because they’re all happy to see him. He did the WWE Bump, After the Bell, pumped up to defend this title at Stand & Deliver. Ziggler does photoshoots, is happy to be in this moment.

Ziggler can only imagine what his career would’ve been like if he had all these teachers and classes. Maybe you wouldn’t have seen golf caddie, Nicky the Cheerleader. Yes, he’s bitter but he wouldn’t have it any other way. And he knows, Breakker lost so the kid’s gonna have his moment at Stand & Deliver. But that’s what you thought at Roadblock. This is just the second genesis of Ziggler’s career. This is the DZ everyone wanted. All Ziggler wants is everyone to leave with shocked looks on their faces. The Show-Off believes he’ll still stand tall, but will Bron deliver the performance of a lifetime in Dallas?

 

Cora Jade speaks.

While looking back at an old journal, with a letter from her younger self to her “future” self, Cora says, “Stand & Deliver means more than just getting revenge. This is about turning a pipedream into a reality. In high school, I was sitting there in math class not taking notes, but writing out my dreams in a WWE journal. I even graduated early so I could focus on becoming a WWE superstar.” When Cora held that belt in her hands, it was like everything stopped. The same title held by Paige, Sasha Banks, Asuka, Bayley, Charlotte Flair- Okay, Cora isn’t a fan of Charlotte’s, but the list goes on and on. Rhea, Shayna, etc.

Mandy doesn’t care about anything but Mandy. The women before her carried the title with dignity. Mandy sure as hell knows Cora is coming for her. Last week, Cora’s climb got harder because she isn’t just against Mandy. Now she has to deal with one of the most dominant women in NXT history in Io Shirai, and THE most dominant woman in NXT UK history in Kay Lee Ray. At Stand & Deliver, Cora will give everything she has. The odds are against her, but that was never really her thing. Cora knows she’s the underdog, but that’ll make it all the sweeter when she becomes the next NXT Women’s Champion!

 

Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen w/ Fallon Henley VS Legado del Fantasma w/ Elektra Lopez!

Between the whodunnit on the Creed Brothers and the brawl ringside during Rey VS Escobar, this match was bound to happen! But will the bar brawling good ol’ boys or the henchmen of Legado be the ones standing tall this close to Stand & Deliver?

NXT returns as Briggs & Brooks make their entrance. The teams sort out, Wilde and Brooks start and they tie up. Wilde wants a leg, Brooks headlocks but Wilde throws body shots. Wilde headlocks, Brooks powers out, Wilde ducks and dodges but runs into a FLAPJACK! Brooks BOOTS Wilde down, then has Wilde in a corner. Brooks CHOPS, clotheslines and whips to run and clothesline again! POWERSLAM! Brooks fires up and circles around Wilde. He brings Wilde over, tag to Briggs, and they double scoop SLAM Wilde down! Briggs is fired up now, and he brings Wilde up, only to get a JAWBREAKER!

Tag to Mendoza and he fires off on Briggs. Headlock, but Briggs powers up to power out. Mendoza slides under, tilt-o-whirls and sobats! Briggs blocks the whip to whip Mendoza to a corner, but Mendoza slips out and kicks back! Mendoza springboards up and over, rolls through but returns, into a pop-up BEARHUG! Briggs squeezes tight, RAMS Mendoza into the corner, then tags Brooks! They double whip and double TACKLE Mendoza down! Fans are torn, but Briggs and Brooks slide out, DOUBLE HAYMAKERS! They high-ten, but then Lopez looks Brooks up and down. Brooks waves hi then goes in to whip Mendoza.

Mendoza dropkicks Brooks out! Mendoza then WRECKS Brooks with a dropkick! Wilde laughs at Brooks, the ring count starts. Wilde tags in, he uses the corner for some flag pole and then a SPALSH! Wilde puts Brooks in, pushes him around, then brings him up to bump off buckles. Wilde stomps Brooks, taunts Briggs, then runs in to clothesline! Tag to Mendoza, he also clotheslines and tags! Wilde clotheslines and tags! Mendoza clotheslines and tags! Wilde clotheslines and tags again! Mendoza winds it up, to GAMANGIRI! Tag to Wilde, Legado double suplexes! Wilde keeps Brooks from Briggs, covers, TWO!

Wilde clamps onto Brooks with a chinlock and fans rally. Brooks fights up, powers Wilde to a corner, but then Wilde hops on for a SLEEPER HOLD! Brooks flails, Mendoza runs in but Brooks back drops him! Brooks throws Wilde off, hot tag to Briggs! Briggs runs Wilde over, throws big hands, then BOOTS Wilde down! Mendoza returns, into a SLAM and SPLASH! Briggs is all fired up, and he BUTTERFLY BACKBREAKERS Wilde! Cover, Mendoza breaks it! Mendoza whips but Briggs reverses to toss Mendoza! Briggs runs but Lopez is in his way! Wilde tags Mendoza in, Mendoza goes up to missile dropkick!

Mendoza tags Wilde back in, he goes up, but Fallon CLOBBERS Lopez! The women brawl now and Wilde is distracted. Wilde 450splashes into a choke grip! Briggs BOOTS Mendoza and CHOKE SLAMS Wilde! Tag to Brooks and they coordinate, HIGH LOW! Cover, Briggs & Brooks win!

Winners: Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen, by pinfall

That was quite the football blitz from these boys, and they take the win! Will they and Fallon celebrate in Dallas just for the hell of it?

 

Indi Hartwell & Persia Pirotta talk.

They can’t believe Will Smith is still trending. Is Duke’s chest still all cut up from those chops? Uh, no, almost all gone. Persia spent all week rubbing in lotion. Gross. Well Duke will make it up to Persia with a romantic weekend in “The Big D.” That D is for Dexter. Uh, no, Big Duke Energy. Don’t be jelly when #Dusia is the talk of the weekend. Nope, it’ll be the hottest couple, #InDex. Then lets find out once and for all! Okay then. They can get their men and have the WWE universe decide. Deal! Persia says, “See you in Dallas, second best.” Indi says, “We’ll see about that.” Which way with the universe’s poll sway this weekend at Stand & Deliver?

 

Toxic Attraction heads to gorilla.

Mandy Rose leads Gigi Dolin & Jacy Jayne, but what will these three champions have to say this close to Stand & Deliver?

 

Backstage interview with Cameron Grimes.

McKenzie asks him how he is feeling ahead of the Last Chance Triple Threat. Usually, he’s pretty confident, cocky even. But tonight, he’s nervous. Nervous because this is the biggest match of his career. A-Kid and Roddy Strong are both excellent competitors. But they don’t need this the way Grimes needs this. he NEEDS Stand & Deliver. This is more than just being on top of the ladder with the North American Championship. This is about delivering on the promise he made to his late father. Grimes heads out, will this finally be Grimes’ big moment?

 

Toxic Attraction heads to the ring.

The NXT Women’s and Women’s Tag Team Champions strut their way out and show off their belts, among their many other assets. They all get mics, and Mandy starts with, “This Saturday, at NXT Stand & Deliver, I was supposed to fight Cora Jade one on one. But instead, Io Shirai and Kay Lee Ray got a little win, and they totally took what I said out of context. They manipulated my words! I said I would fight any woman. Not at the same damn time! I mean, but I’m not scared. No no no no no. I am never scared. No, not me. Which reminds me… I think you all need to remember who the hell I am!”

Mandy Rose is the baddest bitch in the game, and she got the greatest back up this entire company has ever seen! Toxic Attraction has been dominating this entire division for the last six months, and will continue to do so. So come this Saturday, Mandy vows to humiliate Cora, rid NXT of Shirai once and for all, and send KLR back under the bridge she came from! After Mandy beats those three, she will cement her legacy of being the greatest NXT Women’s Champion of all time! “But hold on, hold on. Before we witness greatness on Saturday, we got some business to take care of tonight.”

Wendy Choo and Dakota Kai! They did you a favor by taking out the most dangerous team of Cora & Raquel. They practically  handed them the tournament! They just had to beat KLR & Shirai, but they failed. So let’s just say Wendy Choo “apologized” for not getting the job done. Show ’em! They have Wendy’s stuffed animal and favorite drink cup! Fans boo while Toxic Attraction says, “Aww~! We’ve beaten everyone there is to beat! We’ve beaten everyone!” Shirai & KLR even forfeited their shots, and it’s not like Dakota can find poor lil’ Wendy. They literally run this show! Jacy says, “Who’s left? I mean, really?”

Trick question! There is NO ONE left! Toxic Attraction has beaten and embarrassed every team that’s stepped in front of them. And come Saturday, Stand & Deliver, Jacy & Gigi walk in the NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions, and watch Mandy beat three other bimbos at the same damn time! Yeah, believe that! Toxic Attraction walks in with all the gold, and they walk out with all the gold. They’re not just Toxic Attraction, they are THE attraction! The champs hold up their belts, but wait! Here comes Dakota! She wants after them! She dodges Gigi, CLOBBERS Jacy, then gest at Mandy!

Gigi and Jacy beat Dakota down, this is 3v1 and not in Dakota’s favor! But wait! Is that Raquel!? Big Mami Cool is recovered and she HEADBUTTS Jacy! Then CLOBBERS Mandy! Gigi stomps Dakota to keep numbers advantage, but then she has to save Mandy from a scoop! Jacy also tries, but Dakota throws Jacy out! Raquel CLOBBERS Mandy, Toxic Attraction regroups on the outside, and the frenemies are standing tall together? This is quite the turn of events, and fans are liking it! Are we seeing these two make amends? THEY ARE! They hug it out, and even hold up the tag titles! Will Raquel and Dakota clobber Toxic Attraction once and for all at Stand & Deliver?

 

Backstage interview with Carmelo Hayes & Trick Williams.

The North American Champion had a hand in making of these qualifying matches, what does he think of the results so far? Well first, everyone needs to put some respect on his managerial skills. He gave us all these banger “Melo-fication” matches. But in walk Grayson Waller & Sanga. They gonna be on commentary tonight? Maybe Waller & Sanga will be, too. Look how far they’ve all come! From WarGames and Waller jumping off the cage to win the match. Just imagine what he’ll do to win that North American title. Oh, Melo can imagine. He knows what lengths Waller will go to just to get a little bit of attention, when all Melo’s gotta do is be Melo.

And Waller finds out the hard way, that’s just how it is. Okay, Melo can keep lying to himself. That title will be Waller’s soon enough? And Waller’s is bigger than Melo’s. Wait, does he mean comparing Sanga and Trick? Or perhaps egos?

 

Bodhi Hayward w/ Andre Chase VS Von Wagner w/ Robert Stone!

The star student of Chase University will defend the school’s honor as well as his own against the new Stone Brand’s leading man. But is Bodhi going to ace this test? Or must we all accept that this is Wagner’s World?

But a special surprise is ringside, Jacket Time is standing in as Japanese commentary! Kushida & Ikemen Jiro are fired up to watch this one. The bell rings and Bodhi fires off haymakers! He kicks, throws more hands, and fans are behind him! Wagner shoves him, DECKS him, then takes a breath, But Bodhi gets up to lift Wagner and dump him out of the ring! Fans fire up and Bodhi rushes in to RAM Wagner into steps! Fans fire up even more as Bodhi chases Wagner back in the ring. Bodhi runs, into a BOOT! Jacket Time says that was quite the rally but it sure didn’t last long. Wait, Jiro is distracted by the same lovely lady that’s been around Stone lately.

Wagner STOMPS Bodhi, drags him up, headbutts him down, then paces like a shark. Wagner throws another headbutt, rains down fists, and Kushida gets Jiro to focus on the match, not Ms. Sophia Cromwell. Fans boo but Wagner bumps Bodhi off buckles. Wagner RAMS his shoulder in again and again, then lets off as the ref counts. Wagner whips Bodhi out to put him in the corner and clothesline down! Fans rally but Wagner suplexes Bodhi across the ring! Bodhi gets to the apron, and he shoulders back in! Then he slingshots up and over to get the cover, TWO! Wagner swings but misses, Bodhi ROCKS him with a right!

Bodhi runs, into Wagner’s arms! FALL AWAY SLAM! Bodhi flounders to a corner, Wagner stomps him. Jiro is still distracted by Sophia and Wagner pulls Bodhi against ropes. The ref counts, Wagner lets off at 4, and the ref reprimands. Bodhi elbows Wagner back! And boots him! And fires forearms! Wagner shoves, but he misses his own boot! Bodhi goes corner to corner as fans rally up, and Bodhi CHOP BLOCKS Wagner’s big leg! Then shoulder tackles him down! And a SPLASH! Wagner flounders. Bodhi fires up, and he does it for the U! Scoop, but Wagner slips out to smack Bodhi off buckles!

Wagner hauls Bodhi up, fireman’s carry and DEATH VALLEY BOMB! Cover, Wagner wins!

Winner: Von Wagner, by pinfall

Bodhi gets an A+ for effort, but effort isn’t enough. And now Wagner storms over to Jacket Time! He DECKS Kushida and TOSSES Jiro! Wagner puts Jiro in the ring, gets in after him, and fireman’s carries for the DEATH VALLEY BOMB! Fans boo as Wagner rips Jiro’s jacket off him, and then RIPS the jacket! Stone says that’s what Jiro gets! Kushida gets in but Wagner is leaving. Sophia seems rather impressed. Has this convinced her to sign up with the Stone Brand?

 

Tony D’Angelo speaks.

“Tommaso Ciampa. See you though tit was a good idea to attack me from behind? Stunad. Big mistake. See on the streets, you start off as a soldier. Earn your stripes, make a name for yourself. But as you climb your way up the food chain, there comes a time when you know what’s best for the family. Which way to steer the ship.” Tony is making a decision. He has to remove Ciampa from his chair. Tony is telling Ciampa, whether he likes it or to, that Stand & Deliver WILL be his last match. And when Tony takes his place at the top of the family, he will control the streets. He will call the shots in the ring. And Tony will control anything and everything as the Don of NXT. He already likes the sound of that, but will there be a Fairy Tale Ending in his future?

 

Draco Anthony VS Joe Gacy w/ Harland!

The hard working, hard fighting loner has had enough of Mr. Inclusion hypocritically acting like he has to live the way he’s told. Will Draco get Gacy to shut up and leave him alone? Or will he be made to see things Gacy’s way?

NXT returns and Draco makes his entrance. Gacy has Harland relax, and then Gacy offers a handshake. Draco slaps it away, then ducks a clothesline! Draco headlocks, Gacy powers out but Draco dodges, only for Gacy to run him over! Gacy apologizes and wants to hug it out. Draco kangaroo kicks instead! Draco fires shots, WRINGS Gacy out, then hip tosses Gacy down! Draco whips Gacy to a corner, Gacy tumbles up but Harland distracts with juts a glare. Gacy is still upside down in the corner, and then tumbles back to dodge Draco! Kick and DDT! Both men are down but Harland glares at Draco.

But wait, is that NXT prospect Quincy Elliot behind Harland? He’s making his own face but Gacy sits Draco up to wrap on a chinbar. Gacy CLUBS Draco, clamps on an armlock and he grinds Draco down. Draco endures, fans fire up, but Gacy digs his forearm in. Draco fight sup, pries free, but Gacy HEADBUTTS! Gacy pats Draco, and he says Draco’s loneliness doesn’t have to be his only friend. Draco knees low, whips, but Gacy reverses and clotheslines in the corner! Then URENAGE! Cover, TWO! Gacy is back on Draco with another chinbar! Draco endures so Gacy shifts to a chinbar and armlock. Fans rally, Draco fights up, and he fireman’s carries!

But Gacy slips off to get Draco in a chinbar half nelson! Draco backs Gacy into buckles, but Gacy holds on! Draco rams him in again, arm-drags free, and he fires off haymakers on Gacy! Draco whips and dodges Gacy to then run him over! Fans fire up with Draco as he runs side to side to back elbow! Gacy flounders, Draco fires up and he reels Gacy in, EXPLODER! Cover, TWO! Gacy is still in this, but Draco keeps his cool. Draco drags Gacy up, reels him in, and suplexes, but Gacy slips out! He drags Draco up to waistlock, O’Conner Roll, TWO! Gacy handsprings and LARIATS! Cover, Gacy wins!

Winner: Joe Gacy, by pinfall

Harland joins Gacy in the ring as Gacy stands tall! But what of Quincy glaring at them the whole match? Will he have something to say about them getting on Draco’s case?

 

Bron Breakker speaks.

“The entire world is descending upon Dallas, Texas. Stand & Deliver, the main event, Bron Breakker VS the NXT Champion, Dolph Ziggler.” And damn right it’s the biggest match of Bron’s life! His first run as champion was about proving to everyone and to himself that he could be the guy. Bron dreamt of that moment, he was ready to carry the weight of NXT, but the Triple Threat was screwed up by the Dirty Dawgs. Ziggler is a poison. No one is bigger than the brand but Ziggler acts like it. He flies down from Raw on Monday nights to be here on a Tuesday to do his stuff and get out. He takes everything he needs and gives nothing back.

“NXT is my life.” Bron wakes up, comes to the performance center, trains his ass off, works every single day. WrestleMania Weekend is the biggest weekend of the year, and Bron vows that Ziggler will NOT leave champion! There is too much on the line! Bron doesn’t care what Ziggler thinks. The culture of NXT means too much to Bron for Ziggler to be walking around with that belt. Ziggler can’t screw Bron because this isn’t a Triple Threat. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Bron promises to smash Ziggler at Stand & Deliver and take back the brand for everyone who chants “N X T.”

 

Nikkita Lyons VS Sloane Jacobs!

She may want after Lash Legend, but for now she’ll have to settle for an appetizer. Will Lyons roar and be Queen of the Jungle?

The bell rings, they tie up, and Lyons headlocks. Sloane pulls hair and powers out but Lyons runs her over! Lyons arm-drags Sloane around, then scoops her for a SLAM! Lyons roars and fans fire up, and then Lyons hauls Sloane up. Sloane throws body shots but Lyons HEEL KICKS her down! Cover, TWO! Sloane flounders but Lyons hauls her up to a fireman’s carry. Sloane elbows free, and hits an ARM BREAKER! Fans rally for Lyons but Sloane wraps the arm around ropes and kicks away! The ref reprimands and counts., Sloane stops at 4 but Lyons hits back! Lyons ducks Sloane’s kick to GERMAN SUPLEX!

Lyons roars again, fireman’s carries and SAMOAN DROPS! “LET’S GO!” Lyons waits on Sloane to get up to kick, KICK and ROUNDHOUSE! And then, the SPLIT LEG LEG DROP! Cover, Lyons wins!

Winner: Nikkita Lyons, by pinfall

But Lash talks trash on the titantron. That win deserves two snaps and a clap, like a goldfish blowing bubbles. But after Stand & Deliver, these two have business to take care of. Lyons is okay, but she ain’t Lash Legend, okay? Lash will prove she is more talented, more athletic, and most importantly, a bigger star than her. Lash talks a big game, but will stepping into the #LyonsDen only prove why Lash is a talk show host and not a champion?

 

Diamond Mine regroups backstage.

Everyone congratulates Ivy on the win, and then Bivens says, “The craziest thing about NXT today is the fact that all these people here brag about the fact that they can walk these streets alone. But these are the same people who are afraid to fight Diamond Mine one on one. But tonight, we’re gonna solve that problem.” Strong will win the Last Chance Triple Threat and go on to Stand & Deliver to climb that ladder, grab that title, and become a TWO-TIME North American Champion! And that same day, the Creeds will beat two other tag teams to become the NEW NXT Tag Team Champions! This is WrestleMania Weekend, it doesn’t get any better than that!

And at the end of it, Malcolm Bivens will have more gold than Mr. T himself. And Bivens pities the fool who wants to get it with Big Nasty. The Creeds see Bivens, Strong and Ivy off, but then Brutus gets a text. A 781 area code is wishing them luck on Saturday, because they’ll be watching. Oh wait, those guys who jumped them! It’s fine. Stand & Deliver is first, then when these guys finally pop up, Julius & Brutus can take their heads off. Julius is levelheaded, but will he and hotheaded Brutus have to worry about their stalkers?

 

NXT North American Championship Ladder Match Qualifier Triple Threat: Cameron Grimes VS Roderick Strong VS A-Kid!

The Carolina Caveman wants gold, but before even getting to the ladder match, he must go through a former NXT North American, Cruiserweight and Tag Team Champion, as well as the inaugural NXT UK Heritage Cup Champion! Will Grimes keep his dream going #ToTheMoon? Or will someone else take that fifth and final spot in Melo’s star studded showdown?

NXT returns as the Spanish Sensation, A-Kid, makes his entrance. Then Grimes makes his, and the main event begins! The fans rally up with “To The Moon!” and the three slowly circle. Grimes goes for AK’s legs but he kicks free, only for Strong to waistlock. AK headlocks, Strong powers out and Grimes gets around AK to waistlock. Strong waistlocks Grimes, AK switches all the way to waistlock Strong. Grimes breaks free, AK trips Strong but Grimes pushes AK aside. Grimes wants La Magistrol but AK sunset flips Grimes! Strong ghost pins AK, ONE! Grimes headlocks but Strong powers out, Grimes runs AK over!

Grimes keeps moving, now he runs Strong over! But Strong trips Grimes on the return, but AK gets Strong with a sleeper! Strong snapmares free, but he narrowly avoids the Cave-In! Fans fire up for this triple threat standoff! Grimes tells both AK and Strong to #KissMahGrits! Strong runs in, but into a ROUNDHOUSE! AK runs in, dodges, springboards, and arm-drags Grimes to then dropkick Strong! And then he dropkicks Grimes! Fans fire up but Strong CLOBBERS AK and stomps him in the corner! Strong stomps a mudhole in, then stands AK up to CHOP! Strong goes to Grimes, throws heavy hands, then whips Grimes at AK.

Grimes slows up and monkey flips AK, and AK RANAS Strong! Fans fire up more and AK runs in to alley-oop over Grimes and dropkick Strong! All three men are down and fans are thunderous! Melo & Trick finally arrive at commentary, Melo shoots and scores. Grimes gets up and checks his jaw. He swings on AK but AK blocks, knuckle locks and CHOPS! AK goes up and leaps to DOUBLE THROW both Strong and Grimes! Grimes bucks the O’Conner Roll, but AK dodges to DIVE and take out Strong! Melo takes all the credit for this match, and Grimes PENALTY KCIKS AK! Strong gets Grimes for an APRON BACKBREAKER!

All three men are down, and Solo Sikoa shows up on stage! Melo is upset but the fans are fired up, and NXT goes picture in picture.

Strong gets up, he fetches AK into the ring, bit of a wedgie, and he stomps AK around. Strong scoops AK for a BACKBREAKER! AK writhes, Strong fish hooks his face and CLUBS him down. Strong then WRECKS Grimes with a dropkick, goes back to AK, and he fires off knees. AK fires forearms and a BOOT back, but Strong throws hands. AK gets the armbar takedown! Strong hurries to turn it to a cover, TWO! Strong fights out of the Triangle Hold to stomp AK down! Grimes is on the apron so Strong rushes over, but into a shoulder! Grimes slingshots but into a BACKBREAKER! Solo applauds, that was a good one.

Strong gets AK’s legs but AK resists the rollover to get the ropes! But Strong uses that to ROPE GUILLOTINE! AK sputters and Strong soaks up heat. Strong drags AK up, CHOPS him again, and AK drops to his knees! Strong POSTS AK, then drags Grimes up the corner. Strong throws hands, climbs up and brings Grimes to the top. Grimes hits back, so Strong drops down to GAMANGIRI! Strong BOOTS AK out of the ring for good measure! Strong then goes up again, CHOPS Grimes, brings him up, but Grimes resists! Grimes shoves Strong away, but Strong comes back to ROCK Grimes! NXT returns to single picture as Strong SUPERPLEXES Grimes!

AK is up top, he FROG SPLASHES Grimes!! Fans are thunderous and even Melo likes what he sees! But wait, Escobar is up in the perch to watch this, because “This is Awesome!” But then Waller & Sanga ruin the mood by showing up in the cheap seats. Melo is loving what he’s created, but Strong RAMS AK into a corner. Strong then gets Grimes’ legs, but Grimes resists. AK runs in to leap on! Strong resists the takedown and he POWERSBOMBS AK onto Grimes! Then he has a DOUBLE STRONG HOLD!! But he just gets double the kicks! Grimes O’Conner Rolls, TWO, and Grimes uses momentum to ROCK Strong!

Grimes elbows AK, AK swings but ROCKS Strong! Grimes runs to DOUBL ERANA! It wasn’t the cleanest but the fans are thunderous all the same! Grimes rallies on Strong, then runs to CLOBBER AK! Grimes keeps going on AK, BOOTS Strong in the corner, then goes side to side to ENZIGURI AK! AK staggers, Grimes is up top, Strong joins in, CROSSBODY on Strong! AK runs in, but Grimes scoops for a SWINGING SIDE SLAM! Cover, Strong breaks it! Strong staggers, he drags Grimes to ropes and stands him up. Strong goes side to side for forearms over and over, but Grimes ROUNDHOUSE! COLLISION COURSE!!

AK QUEBRADAS, but Grimes catches him! SWINGING DDT counter from AK! Melo says this fire from the fans is all for him on commentary, but they’re really losing their minds from all three men being down on the mat. Strong flounders up, staggers over, but AK stands. AK CHOPS Strong, Grimes DECKS AK! Strong CHOPS Grimes, CHOPS again, but AK ROCKS Strong! AK CHOPS and forearms Strong, then forearms Grimes. Strong ROCKS AK, CHOPS Grimes, repeat! Strong fires off on Grimes, but AK CHOPS Strong! AK runs, goes up, but Strong blocks arm-drag to a BACKBREAKER! Strong runs, and he CLOBBERS Grimes!

Strong KNEES Grimes in the corner! AK runs in, into a half nelson BACKBREAKER! Strong RAMS AK into Grimes, fireman’s carries Grimes, GUTBUSTER DROP! AK leaps, but into a SLAM onto Grimes! Strong is putting on a clinic as he hauls AK up! But AK slips out the suplex to O’Conner. Strong bucks it, AK leaps, into the STRONG KNEE! And then END OF HEARTACHE!! But Grimes CAVE-IN OUTTA NOWHERE!! Cover, Grimes wins!!!

Winner: Cameron Grimes, by pinfall (advances to Stand & Deliver)

The End of Heartache is true for Grimes! He has the biggest win in his career yet, but will he get an even bigger win this weekend at Stand & Deliver? Melo gets the mic to congratulate Grimes, and surely Pops is proud of him. But ain’t no way Grimes walks out THE Champion. But Escobar tells Melo to shut up! On Saturday, Escobar takes the title and brings it back to La Familia! But Waller tells Santos, “Mate, family doesn’t matter! And that image of me bringing down the North American title is gonna go viral!” Solo tells everyone to shut their asses up! This is gonna be a fight, and the Street Champion will become the NEW North American Champion!

Grimes says he’ll take the title #ToTheMoon! Then he DECKS Melo! The brawl is on! Grimes is after Melo, Escobar is after Trick, Sanga & Waller are after Solo, Legado rushes out to help their boss, and the fans are going nuts! Just who is even going to make it to Dallas at this rate?!


My Thoughts:

This was a much better go-home than what Raw had last night. Not that it was hard to outdo Recap Night Raw. Great opener in the Six Man, especially with LA Knight & MSK taking the fight to Imperium from the entrances. Imperium gets the win, though we never did see how Gunther and Knight finished their brawl. I feel like Imperium stands tall so that Barthel & Aichner lose the tag titles while Gunther wins over Knight. The Creeds might be the ones to win, so that they can have those titles while feuding with this team that is stalking them. But it seems strange that we were told it was 781 area code when, after looking at all the clues from last week, this might actually be Pretty Deadly from NXT UK showing up.

Ivy Nile gets promo with Tatum to keep it in mind that Tatum might join Diamond Mine, and then Ivy gets a win thanks to Sarray. Sarray VS Tiffany definitely feels like a post WrestleMania NXT level match, and Sarray being “magical girl mode” will definitely beat Tiffany. Draco VS Gacy was good, but it seemed really strange that Xyon Quinn didn’t show up, and instead they’re plugging “Quincy Elliot,” who debuted through NXT Level Up and lost to Gacy. Vince is already inconsistent with his stories, but maybe he’ll have more people join up with Gacy to give Draco a reason to have Quinn and Quincy as his allies.

Are we really going to get #InDex VS #Dusia in a vote of “Who do you guys get turned on by more?” This NXThirst crap is getting outta hand. We did get a good match out of Briggs & Brooks VS Legado, and I figured Briggs & Brooks would win. Wagner of course beats Bodhi, but the match was a vehicle to set up more of the story with Jacket Time, and apparently with Sophia Cromwell. Maybe Sophia sticks to Stone Brand, or maybe Jacket Time impresses her with their heart and fortitude in standing against big bad Von. Naturally, Nikkita crushes her opponent tonight, no pun intended. Lash talks good trash, but Nikkita is getting the push so she’ll win.

We got some great promos out of the bigger singles matches for Stand & Deliver. Ciampa’s was rather simple but very effective, especially with the dates on the chair. Tony D’Angelo’s was in character, but somehow not as effective. Tradition is that the person moving on puts over the other guy, but it just doesn’t feel like Tony deserves it given the differences in who they are and what they’ve done, even just keeping it to 2.0. We got a great couple of vignettes from Ziggler and Bron, and the dynamic differences between these guys actually works. I am still confident Bron wins, but I don’t necessarily disagree with Ziggler saying him getting the title the first time was too soon. But Bron is Mr. 2.0, he’ll become Mr. Two-Time Champion.

We got very good promos out of KLR, Shirai and Cora. Naturally, tension is building between KLR and Shirai, that could mean those two cancel out. Toxic Attraction has a good group promo to talk typical trash, but them bringing up Gigi & Jacy having no one to beat left of course meant someone was stepping up. Them taking out Wendy offscreen, Dakota of course goes after them, but what a great surprise that Raquel is back and that she and Dakota reunite. This could still relate to Gigi not being healthy enough to take on a team like Shirai & KLR, but she still had select parts in the brawl where she didn’t get hit. Will Jacy get squashed to give us two-time tag champs in Raquel & Dakota? Will a fourth Toxic Attraction member show up? Will it be Wendy for some weird reason?

And then we got such an awesome Triple Threat main event. Thankfully there’s such a thing as DVR because that was so hard to keep up with but that made it all the more amazing. Given last week’s promo and this week’s promo,  all in his real voice and not his hyped up voice, Grimes of course was winning tonight. He’s gotten this far, who knows if he’ll get the title, but what a great brawl of all the participants and the sidekicks. Melo might become too powerful if he wins in such a big match, so maybe Grimes fulfills his promise. That would be a great Face moment for Grimes, it’d really make him a star in NXT and maybe even in the eyes of all WWE fans.

My Score: 8.6/10

NXT Women’s Championship Evolution Eliminator: Thea Hail VS Jaida Parker!

The first big match of the night is here! Chase U’s valedictorian was just trying to be a friend to Tatum Paxley, among others, and Miss Parker had to go and rain on that parade. But will Thea make it hail on Jaida’s? Or will Jaida prove being a “grown-ass woman” doesn’t compare to being the baddest b*tch in NXT?

Well hold on now, because Thea attacks during Jaida’s entrance! The fans go wild as Thea SMACKS Jaida off the apron! Jaida kicks back, CHOPS, then THROWS Thea into barriers! Jaida says this is HER ring, but Thea fires body shots! Jaida CLUBS Thea, puts her in the ring, and then storms in. The bell rings, Thea dodges and hits a THESZ PRESS! Thea rains down fists, Jaida shoves her into ropes, and then Jaida HIP ATTACKS against the ropes! Jaida rains down fists now as Thea is on the ropes, but the ref backs Jaida off. Jaida grabs Thea’s arms and pulls them against the ropes! The ref counts, Jaida steps off, and the fans duel.

Jaida runs up but Thea TOSSES her out! Thea DIVES and Jaida is sent into the desk! Thea RAMS Jaida into the apron, RAMS her again, then puts her back in the ring. Thea climbs up, up, and CROSSBODIES! The fans fire up with Thea and she clinches for an EXPLODER! Cover, TWO! Thea drags Jaida up and fires forearms! Thea whips, Jaida reverses, and Jaida scoops to SIDEWALK SLAM! Cover, TWO! Jaida stays on Thea, digs her knee into Thea’s back, and she bends Thea! The fans rally, Thea fights up, but Jaida wrangles Thea! The fans rally and duel as Thea fights up again. Thea arm-drags Jaida, but Jaida holds onto the headlock!

Jaida leans on Thea, thrashes her around, but Thea still endures. The fans duel more but Jaida throws forearms into Thea’s back! Jaida clamps on again, but Thea fights up, fires body shots, and then arm-drags! Jaida still holds on! Thea stands, but Jaida SWINGS Thea in the facelock! Cover, TWO! Thea toughs it out but Jaida clamps on with a chinlock! Thea endures but Jaida leans on her. The fans rally, Thea fights up again, and Thea RAMS Jaida into buckles! Thea RAMS Jaida again, is free of the hold, but Jaida throat chops! Jaida snap suplexes! Then she dragon sleepers for the INVERTED SUPLEX! Cover, TWO!

The fans rally as Jaida brings Thea up. Jaida suplexes but Thea wrenches free and WRINGS Jaida out! SLIDING LARIAT! Thea snarls, Jaida bails out, but Thea pursues. Jaida runs back in, but she’s sent into steel steps! The fans fire up while Jaida is down, and NXT goes picture in picture.

Jaida writhes and clutches her elbow. Thea storms over, drags her up, and puts Jaida in the ring. Thea climbs, aims, and DIVING BODY FLOPS as Jaida moves! Thea flounders but Jaida brings her up. Jaida bumps Thea off buckles, fires off hands, then RAMS into Thea! Jaida bumps Thea off buckles, runs and hits a NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Jaida drags Thea up, fires knees, then clamps on a COBRA TWIST! Thea endures and fights around, to switch the twist onto Jaida!

Thea tries to explain to the ref, but a HIP-NOTIC gets her!!

Winner: Jaida Parker, by pinfall (advances to the #1 Contender’s Fatal 4 Way)

Miss Parker may not have attended Chase U, but she used a high IQ level move there. Will Jaida not only get out the mud, but will she finally get some gold?

 

Josh Briggs, Yoshiki Inamura & Elijah talk backstage.

The Bullhead Brawler says he can’t wait to get his hands on Trick & First Class tonight. Briggs didn’t think it could get any more annoying than Trick, but literally no one can stand AJ & KC! Inamura says exactly! Those three are in for an ass kicking! Briggs says bingo, and Elijah says he likes how that sounds. But First Class is the worst. They are making TNA look bad teaming with Trick while Trick disrespects TNA’s title. It is sickening! Elijah’s gonna tune his guitar up, he’ll se them later. The Drifter heads on, and in step Hank ‘n’ Tank! They ask if Briggs & Inamura are ready to rock it, and Briggs says you know it.

Tank says on the other side of this match, Briggs & Inamura have themselves a tag title match waiting. Briggs & Inamura like the sound of that. Hank says any time, any where. And then in steps Oba Femi. The tag champs welcome The Ruler, and Tank commends Oba on that match last week with Jasper Troy. Hank says that was a straight up hoss fight. Oba thanks them for that and admits, Jasper Troy is the most powerful contender he has been in the ring with. But Oba is still The Ruler, and that is not going to change any time soon. But then Oba turns around, and there’s Trick Williams.

Trick grins at Oba, and Oba says, “Champ.” Trick says, “Champ.” Oba says his money is on Briggs, Inamura & Elijah. Trick says Oba’s gonna be one broke ruler then. Why y’all got all that leather on? Briggs tells Trick to shut up. Briggs tells Inamura it is time to lock in. They head out, Hank ‘n’ Tank look to each other and agree, that was weird. But will Briggs & Inamura be victorious when they #WalkWithElijah? Or will the #TrickNA Champion look to go after Oba’s throne again?

 

Blake Monroe prepares for tonight.

She smiles as she walks through her wardrobe and sprays on perfume. The narrator says, “When The Glamour signs on the dotted line, it’s not just a signature, it’s an event. And she needs a dress as stunning as her contract.” Blake finds what she’s looking for and says, “Perfect!” A little black dress indeed, and now The Glamour is going to seal the deal with more than just a firm handshake. She officially signs with NXT tonight. Will nothing stop Blake Monroe from stealing the spotlight?

 

NXT Women’s Championship Evolution Eliminator: Kelani Jordan VS Lash Legend!

Another qualifier, another bit of beef between opponents. The Standout can’t stand the Bougie Bully always standing in her way, and in some cases literally pushing her aside. But Lash isn’t the first to dislike Lani’s new ‘tude. Will Lash add to her legend by taking a step closer to Evolution? Or will even Lash see that no one does it like Lani?

The bell rings and there’s some trash talk before Lash SHOVES Lani! Kelani is mad and she fires forearms! Lash KNEES low, scoops Kelani, then SLAMS her! Lash DRIBBLES Lani off the mat, then SLAMS her! Lash runs but Kelani avoids the splash! Kelani BOOTS, BOOTS, and SUPERKICKS! The fans rally, Kelani runs and ROLLING THUNDER! Not the cleanest but Kelani still lands on Lash. Kelani hurries to headlock to keep Lash in the ring. Lash powers up and lifts, but Kelani holds onto the headlock! Lash powers up but Kelani holds on! Lash powers up and back suplexes, but Kelani lands out to shove her!

Kelani runs and RANAS Lash! Then she DROPKICKS Lash outta the ring! The fans fire up as Kelani goes up, out, and ASAI MOONSAULTS! Down goes Lash and the fans fire up with Kelani! Kelani talks trash on Lash while NXT goes to break.

NXT returns and Lash has Lani up in a stalling suplex, only for Lani to make it a cradle! TWO and Kelani gets away to a corner. Lash storms up, goes for a leg, but Kelani CLUBS away on Lash! The fans duel as Lash puts Kelani up top. Kelani kicks and BOOTS Lash down! Kelani RAMS Lash, then slingshots up and over to sunset flip! Lash flails and stays up! Lash YANKS Kelani just to THROW her down! And then the PUMP KICK! Cover, TWO! Lash is frustrated but the fans rally up. Lash drags Kelani up, reels her in, and hoists her up for a Canadian Rack! Lash makes it am Argentine Backbreaker rack but Kelani endures being thrashed around!

Kelani pries at Lash’s grip, then slips down to jump up, CODE BREAKER! Both women are down and the fans fire back up! Kelani and Lash stir while the fans cheer “NXT! NXT!” Lash and Lani go to opposite ends, then Lani rallies with forearms and a DROPKCIK! Kelani then dodges Lash to cartwheel BACK ELBOW! The fans fire up and Kelani kips up! Kelani runs up, cravats, and SLICED BREAD! Kelani goes up, up, and FIVE STAR FROG SPLASH! Cover, TWO!? Lash survives that splash and the fans fire up! Kelani has the legs, kicks at Lash, but Lash rolls! Kelani cartwheels through, but Lash ROCKS her with a right!

Kelani goes to the ropes, Lash runs up, and Lash blocks the boot. But Kelani goes up to STOMP Lash down! Then she goes up, but Lash CLUBS her down! Lash climbs up and picks Kelani up, SUPER BACK- CROSSBODY!! Cover, TWO!! Kelani almost had Lash and she’s growing frustrated. Kelani hurries to the corner again, climbs back up, and 450 SPLASH onto knees! Lash racks Kelani for the LASH EXTENSION! Cover, Lash wins!

Winner: Lash Legend, by pinfall (advances to the #1 Contender’s Fatal 4 Way)

Two down, two to go! Jaida and Lash are riding high, who else will join them in that furious Fatal 4 Way?

PLAY BY PLAY

Liv Morgan & Dominik Mysterio are here!

Green Bay is a bit torn as the Bonnie & Clyde of WWE go to the ring together, proudly wearing their belts. And Liv seems extra proud of herself after insulting and then knocking out Nikki Bella last week. Liv grabs the mic to say, “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Monday Night Morgan~! And please make some noise for the most gorgeous man in WWE. He is the greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time, Dominik Mysterio~!” The fans make noise, but it isn’t all positive. Dom has the mic and thanks Liv, but tonight is not about him. Tonight is all about Liv! The fans boo again but Liv thanks Dom for that.

Liv says respect is the thing she is out here to talk about. Everyone needs reminding that this is LIV’s division! And when you talk about her division, you talk about HER! See, Nikki Bella had to learn that the hard way, and now she’s home all beat up, watching Liv on her TV, which is where she should be! Wanna know what was worse than that? The fact that Iyo Sky claimed Nikki paved the way for them all. What a joke. No one paved the way for Liv, and especially not Nikki! Liv paved her own way, and she became the history-making, record-breaking, FOUR-TIME WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion!

The fans boo a bit more but Liv asks the fans if they know what that makes her. What it makes her is the greatest WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion of ALL~ TIME! So she is not asking for respect anymore, she’s demanding it! Just like she is demanding for a rematch she never got over the Women’s World Championship. So Iyo, they can do this the easy way or the hard way. Well, here comes Iyo! The fans cheer the Genius as she holds up the Women’s World Championship and goes to the ring. Iyo grabs herself a mic while the fans cheer her on. Iyo tells Liv, “Do everyone a favor, and shut your mouth!”

The fans cheer and Liv is upset, but Iyo says all Liv does is whine and show disrespect. Iyo rants in Japanese a second and the fans appreciate that. But Iyo says Liv disrespected Nikki Bella, and she disrespected Iyo! If Liv wants to fight, then Iyo is right here! The fans cheer that and Liv says okay, okay. She does wanna fight her, but only for the title. But if Iyo is scared because Liv has beaten her more than any other woman in the WWE, then Iyo can just hand the title over, Liv doesn’t mind. Liv smiles and Iyo sneers. Iyo is not handing Liv anything. If Liv wants it, she has to earn it. Liv can’t just steal it like she stole Dirty Dom from Rhea!

Dom says hold on, hold on! The fans boo Dom but Dom says let’s just make this easy for Liv and give her what she wants! Like Dom does every single day! Liv tells Iyo to listen to Dom, he’s smart. Just shine the belt up and hand it over, thanks. Oh, Liv wants it? Yes, she wants it. Iyo says alright, she can have it. Catch! Liv catches the belt, and then she gets a DROPKICK! And a BUZZSAW! Dom is upset but then Iyo ROUNDHOUSES him! The fans fire up as Iyo holds up her title while Dom & Liv run away! Liv still has to face Kairi Sane later tonight in a rematch of their own, will the Pirate Princess just add insult to injury?

 

Queen of the Ring Tournament Fatal 4 Way: Stephanie Vaquer VS Raquel Rodriguez VS Ivy Nile VS Asuka!

The final Fatal 4 Way for the Queen of the Ring is here, with Alexa Bliss awaiting the winner! But will it be La Primera making big moves in her “rookie year” on Raw? Will Big Mami Cool make up for Liv falling short? Will this tournament soon be American Made? Or will the Empress of Tomorrow have a massive return?

Raw returns and Raquel gets ready backstage. Liv finds her and tells her to win, no matter what. Raquel says got it, then she makes her entrance. Ivy is already in the ring, so that leaves Asuka to make her entrance for the first time in just over a year! The fans fire up to see her back, from classic theme to the face paint. The bell rings, Raquel rushes Asuka and Ivy is after Vaquer! They brawl, and then Ivy and Raquel whip! Vaquer reverses, Asuka CLOBBERS Ivy, and then the two work together against towering Raquel! KICK after KICK, then DOUBLE SUPERKICKS! The fans fire up and chant, “Welcome Back! Welcome Back!”

Asuka and Vaquer tie up, Vaquer ducks a kick to shove, then follow. Vaquer dodges a lariat, sweeps to cover, ONE! Asuka sweeps to cover, ONE! The two standoff and the fans cheer. But Ivy CLOBBERS Vaquer! Raquel puts Asuka in a corner, but Ivy tries to roll Raquel up! Raquel YANKS Ivy up to PUSH her away! Asuka headscissors, but Raquel uses that to POWERBOMB Asuka onto Ivy & Vaquer! Ricky Desperado stands tall while the fans boo, and Raw goes to break.

Winner: Asuka, by pinfall (advances to the semifinals)

The #EmpressImpact certainly made an impact, but so did Rhea! Will Rhea and Raquel have to run back their own classic feud to put this to rest? Cathy Kelley interviews Asuka in the ring to congratulate her on this huge return win. How is Asuka feeling? Asuka smiles and the fans cheer, and Asuka says, “The fire didn’t die! It’s still alive! I will be the Queen of the Ring! No one is ready for Asuka!!” The fans cheer that! And will this big win help Asuka turn this into The Empress of the Ring? Or will Alexa Bliss “welcome” Asuka back by eliminating her from the tournament?

 

Judgment Day regroups in the clubhouse.

Roxanne Perez talks with Dom, Finn & JD about some things, Raquel ices from her match, and Liv says they need to go talk strategy for fighting Kairi. Raquel says she’s not really cleared for anything more tonight. Liv says oh, okay, she’ll go handle it herself then. Liv storms off, Dom wants to follow her, but JD has Dom hold on. Isn’t Dom supposed to help JD & Finn get the tag titles? Oh, yeah, but AJ Styles has been breathing down Dom’s neck. So JD can handle AJ for him, then they can get the tag titles. Finn agrees, he’ll be out there to have JD’s back. Actually… Finn was supposed to handle Styles last time, but he didn’t, so…

Dom suggests Finn stays back to hold down the fort. Finn frowns, but then he says Dom is right. He will stay in the back. But then Dom should go out there to watch JD’s back and make sure things go well. Dom agrees and heads out with the Irish Ace. Will JD handle the Phenomenal One so Dirty Dom doesn’t have to? Finn meanwhile talks with Raquel about that stuff with Liv. Don’t worry about her, things are going to work out. Raquel thanks Finn for that, and Finn tells Roxie that while Liv said she wants to handle things herself, but Finn has an idea. Finn and Roxie go off to talk, what is The Prince getting up to tonight?

 

Gunther is here!

Green Bay is rather conflicted seeing Der Ring General as World Heavyweight Champion again, but Gunther smiles as he makes his way to the ring. Gunther shows off the belt around his waist, and even eggs the fans on with their cheers and jeers. Gunther even gives the belt a kiss before holding it up, and off goes celebratory pyro! Gunther then grabs himself a mic, and while the fans boo, he says, “At WrestleMania…” The fans boo more and Gunther chuckles. “Look, guys, I’m man enough to admit that at WrestleMania, Jey Uso was the better man. He was the better man for one night! Because on every other single night, I am UNTOUCHABLE!”

The fans boo more, but Gunther just grins. Gunther continues by saying he has heard all the rumors and the chatter about what is next for him. The fans chant, “GOLD~BERG! GOLD~BERG!” Gunther says no, no, definitely NOT that guy! Gunther punked Goldberg out in front of his family, Goldberg learned his lesson! Gunther doesn’t care about rumors, he cares about reality. Seth Rollins has that Money in the Bank contract, and Gunther has what he wants! Gunther tells Rollins that he’ll say this directly to him. “A few weeks ago, you said to me when I win your World Heavyweight Championship back, I’m a target.

“Well, since I’m a target, I wanna make it very easy for you. I am right here! So don’t waste anymore time.” WAIT! GOLDBERG IS HERE?! Green Bay fires up as the living legend steps out on stage, gets his pyro, then storms down to the ring! Goldberg thanks the fans for that, and then he tells Gunther don’t be confused, it is all good. Tonight is Gunther’s night! Tonight, Goldberg is here to celebrate Gunther winning the World Heavyweight Championship. Goldberg’s been there before, he knows how Gunther must feel. So congratulations! But y’know what? Before Goldberg leaves, a few months ago, Gunther started something with Goldberg’s family in Atlanta!

And Goldberg is gonna make sure that he ENDS it, in Atlanta! So July 12th, Saturday Night’s Main Event, “You’re MINE! Because YOU’RE NEXT!” Gunther frowns but the fans all cheer on “GOLD~BERG!” Will Goldberg get himself one more win in his storied career? Or will Gunther make sure July 12th is Goldberg’s last match, period?

 

AJ Styles VS JD McDonagh w/ Dominik Mysterio!

The Phenomenal One has been chasing the WWE Intercontinental Championship for the last few months, and with no spot in the King of the Ring tournament left to him, he’s come back around to try again. But will he be able to trump the Irish Ace? Or will the Judgment Day use their usually dirty tricks to deny him again?

The bell rings and the two circle. They tie up, Styles puts JD in a corner, but JD pulls the hair to put Styles in the corner. The fans rally for Styles as JD lets off. Styles dodges a haymaker to hit a headlock takeover. Styles grinds JD down but JD fights up. JD powers up and out to then reel Styles in for a headlock. Styles powers up and out, but JD RUNS him over! Things keep moving, but Styles trips JD to then float to a headlock. JD rolls to a cover, ONE, and Styles holds on. JD powers up and out, Styles sunset flips, TWO! JD hurries to high stack, TWO! Styles pops JD into the sunset, TWO! Styles arm-drags!

The fans fire up, JD headscissors, but Styles flails. Styles moves around to headstand then jackknife, TWO as JD bridges up! JD powers through to spin Styles for a backslide! Styles rolls through but JD gets away before the Clash! The fans oddly sing for “Dirty, Dirty Dom~!” while JD and Styles tie up. JD kicks low, then stomps away in the corner! JD digs his boots in, the ref counts, and JD steps off. JD soaks up heat, then he stalks Styles to the ropes. JD CHOPS Styles, whips him corner to corner, but Styles catches JD to a COBRA TWIST! JD resists, Styles rolls JD and has the CALF CRUSHER! JD scrambles around, but Styles rolls him away!

Styles pulls on the leg, JD fights the other way, and Dom pushes the ropes forward! The ref reprimands but JD still makes the ROPEBREAK! Dom helps JD out of the ring, but Styles goes out there. Styles storms up on Dom, they go running around the outside! Dom tries to get to the crowd but Styles grabs that vest! JD FLIES in over the barriers to wipe Styles out! Dom applauds and Raw goes to break.

Raw returns and JD has Styles in the chinlock. The fans rally, Styles fights up, and Styles fires body shots. JD THROWS Styles down by his hair! The fans boo but JD stands on Styles’ hair! The ref reprimands but JD pulls Styles’ arms to also pull hair! The fans rally for Styles, the ref counts, and JD stops at 4. Just to do it again! The ref counts again, JD stops, and Styles KICKS JD from below! Styles rises to fire off a Phenomenal Blitz, with the LARIAT! And SLIDING FOREARM! The fans fire up while JD goes to a corner. Styles runs and LARIATS, then fireman’s carries for an USHIGOROSHI! Cover, TWO!

JD stays in this and Styles frowns. The fans rally, Styles reels JD in, but JD wrenches out to HEADBUTT! JD suplexes, for a BRAINBUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Styles survives and JD is furious!

Finn gets Dom outta there, but the belt was left behind! Styles picks the belt up and the fans cheer! Will Styles make this title phenomenal? Wait, Finn and Dom coordinate, and JD is up. Judgment Day flanks the ring, but Styles slips right past them all! Styles still has the belt in hand, but will he finally get his shot at it?

 

Sheamus prepares backstage.

The Fella spots The Alpha Academy walking over and asks Natalya, Maxxine & Tozawa what’s the crack. How’s Otis doing? Doing better, he’ll be back soon. But they know Sheamus has a match tonight, so how is he feeling? Natty says from one vet to another, he has to take care of Rusev. No problem there, Natty. Sheamus will bully the bully. Tozawa shouts, “Sheamus! Kick his ass!” The Celtic Warrior nods, will he get revenge for the Alpha Academy?

 

Bayley heads to gorilla.

The Role Model wants revenge of her own on Becky Lynch, but uh, what’s going on over here? New Day stands with Grayson Waller as Waller argues with Austin Theory. A-Town Down Under is falling apart, but will Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods be the reason it all ends?

 

Bayley goes to the ring!

Raw returns as The Role Model makes her entrance, and Green Bay cheers her on. Bayley grabs a mic and says, “Ding dong, Green Bay!” The fans cheer again, and Bayley says it feels so amazing to be back. She missed the fans so much! She smiles as the fans sing and chant for her, and she says we all know that classic quote: You don’t know what you have ’til it’s gone. But every time Bayley gets in this ring, she knows exactly what she has. She knows what it feels like to be here, and she doesn’t take any of it for granted. Every single time she gets an opportunity to be in front of the fans, she revels in it! This is what she was born to do!

The fans cheer, and Bayley says this is what is most important to her, what she puts her heart and soul into every single night. And two months ago, Bayley was stripped of an opportunity. She was robbed of a WrestleMania match! The fans boo, and Bayley says she was robbed of her tag title shot, a division she holds near and dear to her heart. But luckily for her, Bayley doesn’t come in here day in and day out, Raw, SmackDown, NXT, losing sleep and putting her body on the line, just for one night of the year! She doesn’t do it just for the big moments, the titles, or WrestleMania, but for nights like tonight and for people like the fans in Green Bay!

The fans cheer Bayley on more, and she says, “So Becky Lynch… If you think you taking me out for WrestleMania hurt me, if you think it broke me, I want you to know that you’re wrong. It healed me, Becky! It made me better, Becky! That it made me stronger!” The fans cheer again and Bayley paces. Bayley says, “Now, I may have said in the past, hell, right up to WrestleMania, how much it bothers me, how much you’ve been a chip on my shoulder, how you’ve always been just two steps ahead, you’ve always been just two rungs ahead of me and I could never make it there. Yeah, that at at me, Becky!

“But y’know what? I’m climbing that ladder, Becky, and I’m coming straight for you. I’m knocking you down, and I’m taking everything that you took for me! So you better get your ass out here right now!” The fans cheer that! And then here comes Becky! The fans are torn as The Man struts out in Chicago Bears merchandise, holding up her title belt. Becky joins Bayley in the ring and grabs her own mic while the fans boo. Green Bay chants, “Bears Still Suck! Bears Still Suck!” Becky says the Bears still beat Green Bay last time. And Becky has always been a chip on Bayley’s shoulder? No, Bayley, you and Becky are the same!

Becky and Bayley were “never meant to be at the top of this division,” yet here they are! The difference is, Bayley accepts being second fiddle, Becky does not! Y’know, kinda like the Packers. Bayley would rather have her group of friends than a legacy. Becky would rather have a legacy than a group of fake friends! Legacy!? Bayley did build a legacy! She’s a future Hall of Famer! Right, Michael Cole? That’s right! She built her legacy, and is so confident in it, she doesn’t mind helping the locker room. She doesn’t mind bringing people up that need help. Oh, okay, the people, right. Bayley fights for the people~!

Becky used to fight for the people, but the people stopped fighting for her, so that’s why Becky stopped fighting for them! So hey, here’s a secret: The people stopped fighting for Bayley, too. Where’s the proof? It was when Bayley got taken out of WrestleMania and Becky stepped in, and no one gave a DAMN about Bayley! No one cared that Bayley was no longer there, they all cheered for Becky! Bayley asks if Becky can hear herself. She sounds like an idiot! The fans can see it! Becky is so insecure! Becky is so worried about what everyone thinks! She took an entire YEAR off, and she worried about whether fans would cheer or boo, and that’s why Becky took Bayley out!

Becky didn’t know if the fans would care, so she had to make it a surprise! And 24 hours later, it still didn’t sit right. Becky probably couldn’t sleep that night, and then she went and took Lyra out, too, because Becky couldn’t hack it if the fans weren’t going to cheer. Becky says they did cheer for that, too. Bayley asks Becky if she forgot how it is to fight for everything. To fight for WrestleMania, for championships. Or maybe is Becky’s too far up her own ass that she doesn’t know what it is like anymore. Becky says no, she has forgotten what the struggle is like. But has Bayley forgotten what championship gold feels like?

The fans boo but Bayley says maybe she has. Remind her. C’mon, stop hiding and get over here! Becky says no, she’s not turning her back to Bayley. Becky snakes away saying Bayley’s the sneaky one. But if Bayley wants a match, they can have a match. But not here in Green Bay! And not even for the title! See you in Columbus, Ohio! Then Becky SLAPS Bayley! So Bayley DECKS Becky!! The fans fire up as The Man scurries away! Bayley smiles, will she get to do that all over again when she and Becky throw down?

 

Backstage interview with Jey Uso.

Cathy Kelley is now with Main Event Jey and says it was a bit of a setback last week, losing the world title to Gunther. But how important is it he moves forward with this King of the Ring match tonight? Jey says it is very important. He won his first world title from Gunther, he has Gunther’s respect. Then Gunther won it back, so Gunther got Jey’s respect. So as far as Jey sees it, that makes them 1-1. Gunther can look past Rollins, look past Goldberg, but they’ll run it back one day. If that means winning KOTR, then say less. Four letters, one word, uh uh… YEET! But then, will Jey also make that one word, “King?

 

Nick Aldis is backstage.

The SmackDown General Manager is here, and he meets with AJ Styles. Aldis thanks Styles for handing over the Intercontinental Championship, and Aldis will make sure it is returned to Dom in a timely fashion. But good news! Styles has a chance to get this title permanently. It is now official for Night of Champions! Dom VS Styles for the Intercontinental Championship! Styles thanks Aldis for that and heads out. Then Bayley steps in and Aldis says he heard all that out there. So speaking of making it official, Becky VS Bayley will happen. But Aldis is putting a little twist on it. As he sees it, WrestleMania was when Becky took Bayley’s title match.

So now, Bayley is owed a title match in return. Next week, Raw in Columbus, it will be Becky VS Bayley for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship! Bayley thanks Aldis and says this is why she always liked him. But then Lyra Valkyria walks over. The Morrigan welcomes Bayley back, and congratulates her on the title match. Bayley says she’s just trying to do what’s best for her. She is sorry that she didn’t get back to Lyra on the texts or calls, it was a rough two months. But it wasn’t personal. Lyra gets it, this is what is best for Bayley. But Lyra just wants Bayley to know, if Bayley wins the title, then Lyra will do what’s best for Lyra and come after her for it.

Lyra heads out, and things have really escalated. Will the Role Model tear down The Man, only to battle someone else who was once a friend?

 

Liv Morgan VS Kairi Sane!

The greatest women’s tag team champion of all time has been having a hard time against the Pirate Princess. A loss because Roxie and Raquel argued, then Raquel takes a loss because Iyo got the better of Liv, and then the losses in the Queen of the Ring tournament, no wonder Liv lashed out against Nikki. But will Liv take her frustrations out on Kairi in this rematch? Or will Kairi only add to the misery with another defeat?

Raw returns and Liv is back in the ring. The bell rings, Liv runs up, but Kairi dodges! Kairi then blocks a kick, trips Liv, and floats to a headlock. Liv scrambles to the outside and clutches her arms. Is Liv still hurting from things last week? The ref has Kairi wait while the medics check Liv. Liv’s arm is definitely the concern, and Raw goes to break.

Raw returns, and unfortunately, that rough landing from the takedown did in fact jam up Liv’s arm, she cannot continue. Kairi wins by stoppage, but will Liv’s misery only continue in and out of the ring?

 

Backstage interview with Sami Zayn.

Cathy Kelley is with the Honorary Uce and she congratulates him on advancing in the KOTR. Friday Night SmackDown will see Sami take on Randy Orton, how is he feeling? Sami isn’t sure. He feels he’s talked about the World Heavyweight Championship so much lately, and now somehow, the opportunity is here. Sami has had the chance a few times to challenge for that title, but something about this time feels different. Karrion Kross walks in and says, “Oh, this is so disturbing! It feels… different? There’s absolutely nothing different about this! Sami, you know you’re an insane person, right?

“You know what an insane person does? They do the exact same thing every day, expecting a different result. Lemme explain to you what’s going to happen. You’re going to go to Friday Night SmackDown, and you’re going to compete against one of the most diabolical people this business has ever seen, a guy who knows how to in, The Viper, Randy Orton. And then, you’re gonna lose! And he’s gonna go on to become a FIFTEEN-TIME World Champion, and you are gonna stay at zero.” Sami smiles and says, “You think I’m crazy? You know what I think you are? I think you’re a coward. I think you hide back here, and you talk, and you hide in the shadows, and you lurk, and you talk in riddles.

“Why? You don’t go out there, because maybe all the big talk when you go out there, maybe you can’t back it up?! Maybe you don’t have the courage to talk a big game, and maybe you fall on your face, and you don’t have the courage to go back out there, cuz trust me, I’ve talked a big game, I’ve gone out there, and I’ve lost, and I have the courage to pick myself back up and go out there again. Can you say the same? I didn’t think so. So I’m done listening to you talk, you understand me? Right now, my focus is the King of the Ring, that’s my priority. But I’m telling you now, the second that’s done, the second that’s done, I am going to Adam Pearce.

“And you and me, we’re gonna have this match once and for all.” Kross says, “It’s about time.” Mr. Doomsday leaves, has Sami just sealed his doom?

 

Jey Uso enters through the concourse.

The fans young and old are fired up as Jey asks them to play his music! Four letters, one word, UH UH… YEET! Jey heads down the bleachers, and fans show off the new foam YEET hands! Will Jey get his hands on that ticket to the next round? Or will someone else have that semifinal match with Cody Rhodes?

King of the Ring Tournament Fatal 4 Way: Sheamus VS Rusev VS Bronson Reed VS Jey Uso!

Raw returns and Rusev makes his entrance. Following that, The Celtic Warrior enters, leaving the Colossal Aussie for last. Paul Heyman accompanies Bronson, but why is Heyman holding Rollins’ MITB briefcase…? The bell rings and Bronson goes after Sheamus while Rusev goes after Jey! They end up in the corners, Rusev stomps a mudhole into Jey but Sheamus dodges Bronson. Sheamus CHOPS and ROCKS Bronson, but Bronson hits back! Bronson HEADBUTTS Sheamus, then SHOVES Sheamus up and out of the ring! Bronson goes to the apron but Sheamus CLUBS a leg out! Sheamus sends Bronson into barriers!

Sheamus gives Bronson BEATS OF THE BODHRAIN! The fans count along, Sheamus goes TEN! The fans fire up and Sheamus adds another TEN, so that’s TWENTY! The fans fire up with Sheamus, but Jey SUPERKICKS Sheamus at the barriers! But Bronson runs up, only to be sent into barriers! Jey lines up a shot, “UCE! OH!” Jey runs in, but Rusev is there to CLOBBER him first! Rusev roars, the fans are torn, but Rusev goes to the ring.

Sheamus is there, and the fans rally up as these former friends are 1v1. The fans cheer for “RUSEV DAY!” as the forearms fly! They fire hands, haymakers, body shots, and then Sheamus fires off with forearms! Sheamus whips, Rusev ducks ‘n’ dodges to WHEEL KICK! The fans fire up and Rusev watches Sheamus flounder.

Raw returns once again, and Rusev sputters from being thrown onto the announce desk! Sheamus leaves Rusev behind to go after Jey. The fans rally for m ore tables, but Sheamus and Jey fire haymakers! They go shot for shot, then it is fast ‘n’ furious! Sheamus blocks the kick, ducks the Dragon Whip, and fireman’s carries! Jey fights free to the apron, but now Sheamus has Jey on the ropes!

The fans are thunderous as the American Nightmare makes sure Rollins can’t make a move! The fans sing along with Cody’s song while Cody stares down with Rollins. Green Bay is losing their minds as Rollins is about to explode with anger, but then that anger subsides…?

Rollins lets Cody and Jey have their moment, and Rollins’ team regroups on the ramp. The Wise Man says this is the right move, because now Cody and Jey are going to be opponents in the semifinals. Jey and Cody look to each other, knowing that in order to get back to the top, they must go through the other. They shake hands and the fans cheer. But will Cody and Jey be able to stay friends after battling it out next week in Columbus?


My Thoughts:

A great Raw with more great build for Night of Champions. Judgment Day ties stories together, with a very good promo from Liv & Dom with Iyo to hype up a possible title match. Unfortunately, Liv legitimately dislocated that shoulder in her match with Kairi. Hopefully for her sake and everything else going on, it isn’t serious and she can still be on TV. And even if not, there is a way to keep the story going in Judgment Day if they were to have Roxanne Perez step in and help defend the tag titles with Raquel in place of Liv. Maybe half the reason Judgment Day loses those titles is because Roxie and Raquel can’t get along while Iyo & Kairi can.

Great Fatal 4 Way for Queen of the Ring, and nice touch with Rhea going after Raquel. Asuka winning is a great way for her to return. Asuka VS Alexa will be really good but I can’t be sure who wins that when there’s also Jade and Roxie on the other side. But I feel like the Women’s Division has a more open title story than the Men’s, because the main thing is that Naomi is Miss Money in the Bank and can cash-in to “ruin” things for whoever is Queen of the Ring and the champion they’re challenging. Though with that, Jade Cargill is probably still the favorite, especially when she towers over Roxie and Alexa, and could overpower Asuka.

Good stuff with Styles VS JD and how he outsmarted the Judgment Day boys. Aldis being here to make matches was a bit of a surprise, but good on him to make a match for Night of Champions. Styles VS Dom could probably go either way, but it’d be a great moment if Finn screws Dom over in that match. Very good promo from Bayley and Becky, and I appreciate Lyra feeling just a touch disrespected with Bayley getting her title match first. Making the title match for next week is fine, Becky VS Bayley will definitely get ratings and be a great match, but I wonder if something involving Lyra is made for Night of Champions. I only count four matches with KOTR, QOTR, Cena VS Punk and now Styles VS Dom.

Gunther had a good promo, and while he said he doesn’t put stock in rumors, the rumors were true and Goldberg is back. That match not being for Night of Champions is a touch surprising, but I suppose having Goldberg as the hometown hero for Saturday Night’s Main Event works out better. Remember what happened the last time Goldberg had a high profile match in Saudi Arabia? And even without that, two weeks is not enough time for Goldberg to get ready, both in kayfabe and shoot. Pushing it to just under a month is better for Goldberg, and I would certainly hope Gunther retains. Remember the last time Goldberg just suddenly had a title match against a younger talent?

Great promo from Sami with Kross, but I feel like it foreshadows Sami not winning KOTR. Though how great would it be if Sami becomes KOTR, takes the title off Gunther like he did with the Intercontinental Championship, and then Sami and Kross feud over the world title. That aside, also good stuff with the promos going into tonight’s main event. And while I figured Jey would win, they did a great job with the overbooking to help it. Great stuff from Sheamus and Rusev as they’re starting a feud, and then of course LA Knight showed up to screw Bronson Reed. Bron Breakker going Knight and then Penta joining in, that was also great stuff, perhaps we get Penta & Knight VS Bron & Bronson as part of something.

Cody protecting Jey is good stuff, and Rollins standing down works so well. Rollins understands what we should all understand: Cody and Jey will battle, the winner of that is probably the favorite to be King of the Ring, but Rollins could make it to where they’re still challenging him. Cena VS Punk at Night of Champions is the first real tease of where Rollins can strike, because Rollins can’t resist screwing his most hated enemy in Punk and the guy who is retiring anyway in Cena. Then if that doesn’t work out and Rollins still has the briefcase, he could go after Gunther during his match with Goldberg at SNME. Or he just waits until SummerSlam when KOTR challenge whoever it is, and we get the next best “heist of the century.”

My Score: 8.8/10
