Apollo Crews VS Giovanni Vinci!
One star returned to NXT just as another started to rise. Will Apollo see an outcome that is in his favor? Or will it be another vittoria (victory) for #VeniVidiVinci?

Give a huge assist to Xyon Quinn getting after Apollo over their war of words! Apollo didn’t see any of that coming, but will he see just how to get even with “The Perfect Superstar?”
Backstage interview with Cora Jade.
McKenzie asks for an update on Roxanne Perez, but Cora doesn’t have one. She wishes she did, but she can’t believe it. She knew they should’ve been more careful and she should’ve come with Roxie to the arena. Cora didn’t see anything, but she just knows it has Toxic Attraction written all over it. Toxic Attraction is pissed for losing, and scared that their reign over NXT is coming to an end. Mandy Rose is most scared of all because she knows Roxie would take that title right off her. It all just makes sense! Cora calms down, and hopes Roxie can pull through to compete tonight. If not, those bitches will have hell to pay!
Tiffany Stratton went to get pampered.
And O M G, she so needed this after the atrocity against Wendy Choo last week. Tiffany had to crawl on that dirty, disgusting warehouse floor to escape. She hasn’t even been able to look at her nails. And don’t get her started on her gear or hair. But in the end, she prevails and shut up Choo. Wendy is so obsessed. It’s so creepy. But Tiffany is going to leave Candy Land behind cuz obvi, she wants to see who wins tonight’s main event. But uh, this wasn’t the best manicure. Tiffany will spare this place the bad review, but will Tiffany be able to leave Wendy behind to go onto the gold?
Cameron Grimes is here!
But there is no smile or high energy for the Carolina Caveman after his loss to Bron Breakker in last week’s Great American Bash main event. Grimes gets the mic while fans chant “To The Moon! To The Moon!” Grimes wishes he could come out here and give all of us an excuse as to why he didn’t win the NXT Championship. But he can’t. Fans say “You Got Robbed!” but Grimes says no, he showed up in the best shape of his life and with a game plan. He even hit the Cave-In on Bron. But then the “Three!” never came. Bron is home in a sling, but he has the title. Grimes admits he almost said “North American Championship,” but that’s because losing that title is still on his mind, too.
Grimes has learned something, though. You can do everything the right way and it just still won’t be good enough. But that’s life, right? Last month, he lost the North American Championship. That’s just life. Grimes goes all in on the top title, and yeah, he lost. That’s just life! Grimes is just destined to be a loser! Cameron Grimes thought he was going #ToTheMoon, but then he crashes into the sun. Wait, Jordan Devlin McDonagh is heading out here now? The Irish Ace say she hates to kick a man when he’s down, but he’s going to do just that! Listen, “Grimy,” JD saw that match, and it was impressive. No one can take that way from Grimes.
But JD thinks that for all of us here, just wrap up the pity party and cry about it in the back. Fans boo but JD says that in about sixty seconds after losing, Grimes became old news. The whole game changed when the Irish Ace walked in. And all these people here, he fooled them all! They all thought he was debuting this week. And y’know who else thought that? That meathead, Bron Breakker! Grimes says if JD is going to be talking in the ring, then he should look Grimes in the eye. We all know who he is and what he did, so maybe JD should go after Grimes. Grimes knows about this Ace, but he’s more like an Irish ASS!
Fans join in calling JD an A-Hole, so JD HEAEDBUTTS Grimes! And then he whips Grimes, only for Grimes to reverses! JD avoids the Cave-In and Grimes fires up! Grimes says he’s got plenty of fight to give, so JD better get in this ring to get it! Fans fire up with Grimes, but will JD choose to wait until Grimes’ fire flames out?
Diamond Mind watches game film.
The Creed Brothers and Damon Kemp are watching just what happened when Julius hit that sliding forearm on Kemp. Kemp appreciates there’s no hard feelings and that they’re helping him study. Iron sharpens iron, diamonds cut diamonds. Diamond Mine Forever. They’re all more than happy to run it back. The Creeds head out, but then Roderick Strong walks in. Did Kemp really just say he’d love to “run it back” with the Creeds? Yeah, cuz- Are you serious?! Kemp is the reason they lost! Strong spent all this time Kemp training him, helping him improve, and Strong realized Kemp isn’t as good as he thinks.
What was going on? Ask the Creeds and Ivy, Strong is not big on excuses. Kemp was happy when Strong made the challenge, but we’ll see how Kemp feels after Strong embarrasses him next week! They’re going 1v1! Strong storms out and Kemp can’t believe he’s in this position. Is Diamond Mine still crumbling from within?
Backstage interview with Grayson Waller.
McKenzie is interrupted because Waller gets it, we’re going to talk about the Great American Bash. If that match was about points, Waller would’ve won and he would’ve won big! It was like 391 AD, wasn’t even close! Wait, what? Nevermind! Waller is supposed to say things didn’t go his way, and he points out that Wes Lee is why! Melo was set up, but then Nicky Nomad ruined Waller’s moment! Wes’ life sucks, but that doesn’t mean he has to ruin Waller’s! Let Wes know Waller’s looking for him. Now, back to the idiots on commentary.
Medics are still checking Roxanne Perez.
Cora is there with her, very worried about her status. Is the title match off for tonight?
Kayden Carter w/ Katana Chance VS Tatum Paxley!
KC Squared’s spitfire got into another argument with the powerlifter, but Diamond Mind’s Pitbull stepped up to back Tatum up. Will Tatum prove she is Diamond Mine material? Or will Kayden get the party going again?
NXT returns and Tatum makes her entrance. The bell rings, the two tie up, and they break. Kayden pie faces Tatum, but Tatum rushes in. Kayden trips her, Tatum kicks her away, then dodges her to wrangle for an armlock! Kayden fights up, rolls, but Tatum gator rolls her! Cover, ONE, but Tatum clamps onto the arm again. Kayden fights up, she whips but Tatum reverses. Things speed up but Kayden rolls Tatum to kick her! Kayden runs to springboard and basement dropkick! Cover, TWO! Kayden gets Tatum ‘s arms and stomps Tatum down! Kayden then runs to WRECK Tatum with a dropkick, right out of the ring!
Kayden shakes her hips but here comes Ivy Nile! Ivy backs Tatum up again and coaches her. Tatum gets back in, RAMS into Kayden, then throws body shots! Kayden BOOTS Tatum, CLUBS her, then whips her to a corner. Kayden runs in but Tatum dodges and DROPKICKS! Good height, and Tatum turns Kayden around to a NECKBREAKER! Katana coaches Kayden but Tatum MARIPOSAS! Cover, TWO! Kayden flounders to a corner, Tatum runs in and jumps up to HEADBUTT over and over! Seems Tatum can head bang with the best of them! Tatum kicks but Kayden blocks to flip her! Tatum handsprings through but Kayden trips her up!
Kayden ties up the legs, TRAILER HITCH! Tatum endures, Ivy coaches her, but Kayden pushes on the leglock! Tatum reaches out, ROPEBREAK! Kayden lets Tatum go at 4, and Ivy coaches Tatum up. Kayden storms over, gets the legs and yanks Tatum, but Tatum uses that for a cradle! TATUM WINS!
Winner: Tatum Paxley, by pinfall
Snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, Tatum gets the last word on this one! Has she earned her way into the Diamond Mine?
Joe Gacy interrupts commentary.
He “humbly” apologizes for this interruption, but his message is too important to fall on deaf ears. There has been a breakthrough amongst the schism! The Dyad have found a point of comfort in revealing their true selves! Next week will be a purification, and hopefully others will see and understand that there is room in the shade under The Schism’s tree. Thank you for the indulgence. Just what does Gacy mean about “purification?” And at the very least, does this mean we’ll see who is under the hoods?
Sanga, Yulisa Leon & Valentina Feroz rewatch last week’s footage.
But not of any match. It’s of Sanga’s powerful CANNONBALL into the pool! The ladies love it when Sanga lets loose, but Duke Hudson barges in. Laugh it up, Sanga. He thinks that was funny? It wasn’t funny. Duke had to get water out of his ear all week! The ladies laugh but Duke is upset more. Sanga tells Duke that if he wants to take care of business, they can do that in the ring. That’s what Duke wants! Then that match is happening, after the break!
Fallon Henley’s bar is booming!
Everyone loves it here. And for the NEW NXT UK Tag Team Champions, life has been pretty sweet. Josh Briggs, Brooks Jensen and Fallon herself cheer, but then in walk Pretty Deadly. “Howdy, partners!” Elton Prince & Kit Wilson are sure no one here has seen two tasty snacks like them before. Brooks says these boys are in the wrong bar. Uh, no, they are not. They’re here for the champs. To think these two would bring those gorgeous UK titles into such a dump! And these hicks might be impressed, but Pretty Deadly aren’t. Well, sounds like they came in for more than just a drink. Yeah, they came for the titles!
Well, that’s good and all, but you’re in here so you’ll have to fight your way back out. It’s been a hot minute since Briggs & Jensen have been in a bar fight! Let’s go! Pretty Deadly isn’t so sure, but the rest of the patrons get between them all. Fallon gets a pool cue and says this is NOT happening here. IF they’re settling this, it’ll be in the ring. See y’all next week. Pretty Deadly leaves peacefully, and the champs get everyone another round! Will Kit & Elton be able to become TWO-TIME UK Tag Team Champions? Or will Briggs & Jensen have another reason to celebrate?
Sanga VS Duke Hudson!
Sanga is a big, big man, and he has a big, big cannonball. Will he send Duke sputtering away like he did in the pool? Or will the fun and games be over real quick?
The bell rings and Duke shoves Sanga. Sanga stops smiling and he shoves Duke down! Sanga storms up on Duke but Duke kicks form below. Duke gets up to throw haymakers and body shots, then he RAMS Sanga into the corner. Duke RAMS his shoulder in more, lets off as the ref counts, but Sanga puts Duke in the corner! Duke dodges, RAMS into Sanga again and fires off forearms! The ref reprimands, Duke whips but Sanga blocks! Sanga shakes his head and whips Duke into the corner to SPLASH! Sanga scoops Duke for a SNAKE EYES! And a POUNCE! Duke flounders and fans fire up with Sanga!
Duke flops out of the ring, Sanga wants him to get back in, but Duke wants space. Sanga grabs at Duke but Duke grabs the beard! Duke throws body shots, then a HCOP BLOCK! And a DDT! Cover, ONE!! Duke is shocked! Duke hurries to CLUB away on Sanga, but Sanga catches the arm! Sanga wrenches, fights up, but Duke RIPS at the chest hair! And Sanga’s got a lot of it! Duke fishhooks then ELBOWS Sanga in the head! Duke RAMS into Sanga, throws more body shots, then clinches. Sanga throws body shots, whips Duke to a corner then runs in to SPLASH again! Sanga scoops for a SIDEWALK SLAM! Sanga roars, fans fire up, and Sanga drops a BIG elbow!
Sanga isn’t done there! Duke stands and Sanga scoops, fireman’s carries, but Duke slips off. Duke elbows from the corner, runs in, and BOOTS! Sanga stays up to choke grip! Sanga says this is it! CHOKE SLAM! Cover, Sanga wins!
Winner: Sanga, by pinfall
Duke tried to bright the fight, but Sanga brought the thunder! Will Sanga storm his way up to something even bigger and better than this?
The Robert Stone Brand speaks.
Robert Stone himself says Solo Sikoa is a fighter, a savage, but he’s got no brains for challenging Von Wagner! Von is a three sport athlete! Sophia Cromwell says even the New York Mets were begging Von to sign with them. But Von chose DI football and pro-wrestling instead. Arm like a cannon with 90 miles per hour heaters! Von tells Stone to stop talking. This isn’t baseball or football, this is a fight. So it doesn’t matter if it’s the streets, the island, or in that ring, Von is going to see just how tough Solo really is! Vicious Von heads out, but will we see who’s the tougher man?
Solo Sikoa has a response.
“Von Wagner, you a bad man. Snapping bones. Let’s see if you can try that on me. Putting fools through tables. Let’s see if you can try that on me. Launching them into the fifth row. Hey, yo, try that on me!” It’s put up or shut up time for Von, and it is go time for Solo! The Street Champion is ready, will Von be?
Backstage interview with Toxic Attraction.
McKenzie says Mandy Rose must be feeling very good right now. Uh, she’s NXT Women’s Champion, of course she feels good. But McKenzie meant because they took out Roxanne in the parking lot. Ugh! That is quite the accusation to be making, McKenzie! Don’t blame them for Roxie getting hurt. Sucks for her but this is NXT. Luck can change in the blink of an eye. From pulling off the upset of the century one week, to wasting a title contract the next. If Roxie is out for awhile, she and Cora can just hand the belts back to Gigi & Jacy. But Mandy did say Roxie would be lucky to make it to their match this week.
Uh, McKenzie, you might not know this, but when you’re the champion, everything falls into place. Was that supposed to be Mandy denying the attack?
Solo Sikoa VS Von Wagner w/ The Robert Stone Brand!
Two of the toughest, meanest and biggest men in NXT collide, both hungry for that top spot. Who knocks the other out of the way to get that much closer to a title opportunity?
As Von makes his entrance, Solo goes right at him! They brawl on the ramp, Von knees low and he brings Solo to the ring. Solo blocks the apron bump to SMACK Von off the apron instead! Solo puts Von in, gets in the ring, and the match officially begins! The two tie up, are in a deadlock, and they break. Solo eggs Von on and they circle. Fans rally for Solo as he and Von tie up again. Von pulls hair, the ref reprimands, but Solo pushes back. They break, stare down, and Von shoves. Solo shoves back, they tie up again, and Von pulls hair again. Solo turns things around, they go around the ring, and Solo gets around to waistlock.
Von elbows free, headlocks but Solo powers up. Von holds on tight, Solo tries again and he gets free. But Von runs Solo over! Von eggs Solo on but Solo stays cool. They tie up again, Solo wrenches to a hammerlock but Von reaches for ropes. Solo keeps him from the ropes, headlocks, but Von powers out. Solo pulls hair to get the headlock back! Fans rally, Von endures and he powers out again. Solo RAMS shoulders but neither man falls! Von eggs Solo on so Solo runs. Solo ducks the haymaker to run Von over! And again! Solo scoops to SLAM Von, then he runs to FALLING HEADBUTT! Cover, TWO!
Solo looms over Von, and KICKS him down! Solo runs again to SENTON! Von bails out and Stone says Von to fight things his way, not Solo’s. Solo waits patiently for Von as NXT goes to break.
NXT returns and Von has Solo down in a chinlock. Solo endures and fights up while the fans rally. Von leans on Solo, but Solo still gets to his feet. Solo throws body shots, whips Von but Von reverses. Solo ducks but Von BOOTS him on the return! Cover, TWO! Solo survives and Von is frustrated. Von rains down fists, then drags Solo to ropes to CHOKE him! The ref counts, Stone talks trash, and Von lets off at 4 to KICK Solo in the back. Von CLUBS Solo, fans rally up and Solo gets to a corner. Von CLUBS Solo more, throws point blank clotheslines, then a running clothesline! Von whips corner to corner and hits another clothesline!
Von talks trash, whips corner to corner again, but Solo dodges! Von hits buckles and Solo hits a BIG back suplex! Fans fire up and Solo sees Von go to a corner. Fans rally with “UCE! SO!” but Von storms up on Solo. Solo blocks and counter punches! And again and again, and then an UPPERCUT! And an elbow! Solo whips but Von kicks! Solo just roars! Solo ducks the haymaker to SAMOAN DROP! SPLASH in the corner and Von sits down! “UCE! SO! UCE! SO!” And Solo runs in to HIP ATTACK! Fans fire up, Solo fires up, but Von bails out. Solo goes out after Von, but Von hits low! Von CLUBS Solo, and SMACKS him off the desk!
Solo just gets mad! Solo ELBOWS Von, Von fires haymakers, Solo hits them back! The ring count is climbing, Von and Solo brawl at the ramp! DOUBLE COUNT-OUT!
Double Count-Out Draw
The brawling continues, even as refs rush out! Von doesn’t want to stop and neither does Solo! They keep throwing hands all the way to the back! What will it take for these two gladiators to finish the fight?
Carmelo Hayes & Trick Williams have a night on the town.
With two ladies each, Melo and Trick party up to celebrate the win last week. Melo is still The A Champion, in and out of the ring. But don’t sleep on Trick, he got a W against Wes Lee. Poor Wes never saw it coming. And the night is still young, let’s go dancing! And the after party! Then let’s go to the penthouse! They have drinks and dancing, and Trick says Melo & Trick can take them places. Just look where they are. Remember back in the day when Melo & Trick were getting crossed up by fools on the court? Now they’re crossing the whole world! Kobe & Shaq! Dre & Snoop! The Dream Team! They’ll always be here. That’s all it is and- Oh, hold on. HOT TUB!
Trick asks, “Am I not the cleanest?” “Yes, Trick.” “Am I not the prettiest?” “Yes, Trick.” “Am I not the baddest mofo?” Melo says yeah, we go tit. They need a toast for the A Champ, and shout out to the haters! That’s all it is, and that’s all it’s ever gone be!
Lash Legend speaks.
“Indi Hartwell. Girl, you athletic, but you’re about to find out you ain’t no Lash Legend athletic.” You see her balling? She’s gonna do the same to Indi. Indi has a better shot at finding love on a dating app than getting a win off the one and only, “and you know you can’t clone me.” Lash heads out and the ball rolls, into a red baseball bat…
Chase University went on a field trip!
“London, here we come!” Andre Chase is pretty sure that big welcome banner is for them. Bodhi, Thea, welcome to London! Montage of them seeing the sights, and Chase U prides itself on exposing students to new experiences. Is The Queen a fan of Chase U? She has to be. Thea is very excited, Bodhi is still sore. Chase claims he’s going to be knighted. He will be SIR Andre Chase! This level of world view education is why Chase U is seventh best- Wait, what? Who wrote this? Glenn, is this you? You know damn well Chase U is ALWAYS number one! Chase oughta beat the hell out of that stupid SOB! Glenn is FIRED!
Lash Legend VS Indi Hartwell!
Lash may have been ballin’ in the WNBA, but she ain’t #IndiWrestling. Will Lash learn that she can dribble and dunk all she wants, what’s #IMPRESSIVE is what Indi’s done in NXT? Or is Lash going to show Indi is done in NXT?
The bell rings and the two tie up. Lash and Indi are in a deadlock, but Lash puts Indi in a corner then CLOBBERS her from behind! Lash talks trash, stands Indi up and TOSSE her to a corner. Indi elbows Lash away, kicks low and then reels Lash in for a suplex. Lash fights it, suplexes back but Indi slips out to waistlock. Lash bucks Indi but Indi DECKS Lash!

Winner: Indi Hartwell, by pinfall
It wasn’t as savage as Indi wanted, but she still got that win! Will Lash worry less about Indi and more about Fyre? Speaking of, Fyre has made it to the ring with her bat! She aims at Lash, and Lash wants her to wait! Lash dodges the homerun swing and goes running, only for Fyre to pursue! Fyre swings and hits the desk! Fyre says if Lash wants to talk, bring the fight to her! Will Lash be turned to ash after Fyre gets through with her?
The rest of the NXT Women’s Division talks backstage.
So who really did attack Roxanne? Amari Miller has been watching True Crime shows, it’s pretty much always the husband/boyfriend. Does Roxie even have a boyfriend? Nope. But Feroz and Leon talk in Spanish, so that makes Arianna Grace suspicious that they’re accusing one of them. But then SOLO AND VON are brawling! They’re going nuts backstage, Von throws Solo into a wall! But then Solo choke grips Von! Solo sends Von into a wall, the haymakers fly again, and they go out into the hall! Just where will they brawl next?
Backstage interview with Tony D’Angelo & The Family.
McKenzie says before tonight’s tag team match, does anyone here have an idea who attacked Roxanne Perez? Elektra Lopez says that is a horrible question. Why is she asking them? Because Legado del Fantasma has been known to attack people in the parking lot. Tony says no one attacked Roxanne on his crew because he didn’t give the order. Elektra is proving herself a loyal and vital part of the family. But tonight, we see where Cruz & Wilde stand. The music hits, and Tony says Elektra can stay in the bac. As for Cruz & Wilde, time for them to prove their worth.
The brawl is continuing outside!
Solo and Von have brawled towards a dumpster! Von CLUBS Solo, RAMS him into railing, but he drags Solo back up. Solo throws body shots, Von CLUBS Solo again, but Solo RAMS Von into a garage door! The producers want them to stop, but it’s Sophia who gets Von to let this go. Stone says this isn’t a game! Solo is stupid, this ain’t over! But Solo grabs Stone! “Who the hell do you think YOU are?!” Solo TOSSES Stone into the dumpster! Will Solo look to trash Von the next time he sees him?

Stacks headlocks, Edris powers out but Stacks gets around to waistlock. Edris switches, Stacks elbows out and runs, but Edris jumps over, drops down and DROPKICKS Stacks down!

But The Don isn’t satisfied, he tells Legado to beat up Malik! So Wilde & Cruz do as they’re told! GAMANGIRI LEG SWEEP COMBO! Tony says that’s what Malik gets for thinking he can beat The Don! Tony then pats Legado on the heads, saying they did good. Will Legado tolerate this patronizing much longer? Or are they waiting for the Emperor of Lucha to return?
Backstage interview with Nikkita Lyons.
McKenzie says Nikkita requested this interview. Does it have to do with information on Roxanne Perez? No, but this about how people think she’s the culprit. Yes, if not for Lyons’ injury, she would be the Breakout Tournament winner. But she doesn’t attack from behind. If she has a problem, she says it it someone’s face. But if Roxie can’t go and Mandy needs an opponent, Lyons will get her gear on and get in that ring to take that title! The moment of truth is approaching, what happens with tonight’s main event title match?
Axiom speaks.
“When I was growing up, comics were my escape from reality. I could sit in my room and escape the chaos, slipping into a faraway time or universe. As I learned to fight, I wondered if I could emulate my idols, take the leap from page to reality. I could be everything I always wanted to be. I could be my own superhero, break free of the world I lived in, and inspire others. I could be a symbol. I remain anonymous, because it’s not about me, it’s about everyone else. I AM Axiom!” And it is time for his NXT 2.0 debut next week!
NXT Women’s Championship: Mandy Rose w/ Toxic Attraction VS Roxanne Perez w/ Cora Jade!
We still don’t know who attacked the Breakout Tournament winner, but if Toxic Attraction are number one on the suspects list, it’s only because of their past behavior. But innocent or not, will Mandy retain by default because of what happened? Or can the gamer girl wrestling prodigy still go tonight?
Gigi gets Mandy a mic so she can say, “Well… Okay, that’s enough out of you peasants. I think it’s been long enough, ladies. What do you say? Roxanne Perez isn’t woman enough to suck it up and challenge me tonight.” Mandy isn’t surprised, but she doesn’t blame her. Roxie couldn’t win, anyway. No one can beat Mandy! Mandy tells the fans to shut up about telling her to shut up, but the dueling continues. Mandy says Roxie could never challenge her, and no one can, because she runs NXT! Nothing will change that! But wait! Cora Jade’s music hits! Cora tells Mandy that she can just shut the hell up!
Mandy’s night isn’t over yet! Because the fans were promised an NXT Women’s Championship match, and that is what we’re going to get! If Roxie can’t go, CORA will step in! Mandy wants Cora to hold on. This might be the funniest thing she’s heard all night. Mandy is going to give Roxie- Well wait! Here comes Roxie! Despite the rib tape, Roxie wants her shot to be tonight! Cora says okay, go kick some ass! The bell rings and it is on! THESZ PRESS from Roxie! Mandy shoves Roxie away and hits the tape! Mandy KICKS the bad ribs, then drags Roxie up. Mandy reels Roxie in, scoops her, but Roxie slips off to roll her! TWO!
Mandy hurries up but Roxie CROSSBODIES! Mandy catches her, to FALL AWAY SLAM! Roxie writhes but Mandy drags Roxie up. Fans duel, Mandy KNEES Roxie in the side! Gigi & Jacy mock Roxie’s pain while Mandy RAMS into Roxie again and again! Mandy lets off at 4, but Roxie ROCKS her! And SHOTGUNS her! Roxie hurries after Mandy but Mandy blocks the whip! Mandy reels Roxie in again to hang her out to dry! Roxie flops out of the ring and to the floor! Mandy goes out, looms over Roxie, then she drags her up. Roxie wants mercy for the ribs but Mandy RAMS her into the apron! And again!
Mandy leaves Roxie behind to soak up the heat and NXT goes picture in picture. Roxie is in tears from the pain, but Cora coaches her up. Mandy goes out after Roxie to drag her up by the tape, and put her in the ring. Mandy wants to win this in the ring, too, and covers, TWO! Mandy is annoyed as Roxie toughs it out. Mandy drags Roxie up, snap suplexes, then covers, TWO! Mandy looms over Roxie, pulls at the rib tape, and makes Roxie a yoyo with it! The ref reprimands so Mandy drops Roxie. Mandy stomps Roxie on the back and stalks her to ropes. Mandy grabs at the tape, then kicks away at her on the ropes!
The ref reprimands, Mandy lets off and she drags Roxie up again. Snap- CRADLE! TWO!!! Roxie almost had Mandy, but Mandy CLOBBERS Roxie! Cover, TWO! Mandy is furious and she tears at the rib tape! She unwraps Roxie and Toxic Attraction is laughing! Mandy throws the tape away, looms over Roxie, then drags her up. Mandy whips Roxie hard into the buckles! Mandy stomps a mudhole then drags Roxie back up. Mandy CLUBS Roxie, hooks her up and has a cobra twist. Roxie endures as NXT returns to single picture. Fans rally, duel, but Mandy elbows away on Roxie’s ribs. Roxie endures, arm-drags free, and she runs, into a SPINEBUSTER! High stack, TWO!
Mandy is shocked that Roxie is still in this! Mandy KNEES Roxie in the side, drags her back, and she uses the tape to pull Roxie into the body scissors! Roxie endures the squeeze, fans rally up, but Mandy clamps on a chinlock. Roxie pries the chinlock open, pushes back to get a cover, TWO! Mandy lets Roxie go to hurry and RAM her into the corner. Mandy RAMS into Roxie again, and again! The ref counts, Mandy carries Roxie and runs, but Roxie slips out to a sunset flip! TWO!! Mandy KNEES Roxie in the ribs again! Fans rally, Mandy whips Roxie to a corner, then runs in, into a KNEE from Roxie!
Fans fire up and Roxie goes up! Toxic Attraction freaks out, Roxie CROSSBODIES! But she bounces off the landing! Fans are thunderous as both women get up, and Roxie counter punches Mandy! And again! Roxie whips, Mandy reverses but Roxie hits a LEAPING LARIAT! And another! Roxie fires up, adrenaline helping with the pain! UPPERCUT in the corner, then another! Mandy staggers, Roxie runs, tilt-o-whirl and RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! Cover, TWO!! Mandy survives and Toxic Attraction can breathe again. Roxie hurries to hop on, POP- NO, Mandy slips free! Mandy runs in but POSTS herself!
Mandy flops out of the ring, Gigi & Jacy go to her side, but Roxie builds speed! Roxie DIVES to wipe out Mandy! Fans are thunderous, Jacy runs in but Roxie POSTS her! And SOBATS Gigi, to POST her! Roxie and Mandy are up,. Roxie hops on, POP ROX TO THE FLOOR!! Cora fires up and tells Roxie to get in the ring! Roxie drags Mandy up, puts her in, and Cora tells her to hurry! But then Jacy distracts the ref, and CORA CLOBBERS ROXIE?!?! WHY!?!? They’re best friends AND tag team champions together!! KNEE FROM A ROSE!! Cover, Mandy wins!
Winner: Mandy Rose, by pinfall (still NXT Women’s Champion)
How could Cora do this to Roxie?! HOW!? Does their friendship mean nothing if Roxie were to be a double champion? Toxic Attraction still has one belt, and Cora gets in the ring to say that SHE brought Roxie here and this is what Roxie does. Roxie is the selfish one?! Cora BEATS Roxie with her board, until it breaks!! What does this mean for their tag title reign?
My Thoughts:
This was a good episode, until they went the dumbest way possible with the Women’s Championship story. I am actually asking, not just kayfabe wondering, WHAT THE HELL are they doing?! Cora betrayed Roxie while they’re both champions, so what’s supposed to happen with the tag titles? And also, what a waste of the inaugural Women’s Breakout Tournament contract. Nikkita Lyons probably was their choice to win before her injury, but you can’t just take a piss on your own back-up plan! I am calling shenanigans and BS to the highest degree on this, I don’t care whose idea it was to do this.
Apollo VS Vinci was a very good opening match, but while Apollo didn’t see it with his Equalizer scenario power, I should’ve seen that Xyon would attack and cost Apollo the match. Apollo will of course go after Xyon and get a win over him, then he can go towards a title. Melo & Trick are partying it up, but Melo will be game time ready for that awesome match. Tiffany Stratton has a good promo but her calling out Wendy Choo makes me think this feud is far from over. Grimes and Devlin/McDonagh had a good promo and confrontation, that match can be seen as a #1 contender’s scenario while also being a good-bye feud for Grimes, because of course Devlin’s winning.
I liked the promo with Diamond Mine’s members, the group is falling apart more, and Strong VS Kemp could be the last straw. I would think Strong wins this, but that only gets him kicked out of the group. But that’s fine, because surely, Tatum Paxley is joining the group after getting a good win over Kayden Carter. KC Squared is really a team that got the short end of the stick, because they’ve been a solid tag team this whole time, yet passed over for a lot of other people. And it’s worse when you consider RawDown isn’t giving a damn about their tag division anymore, so even being called up would mean nothing for them.
Indi Hartwell got a win because her match was more about Lash and Fyre than her. I hope that the missed springboard was a work, it’d be a shame if Indi got hurt now while she has a chance to be a solo act. And speaking of Solo, I liked that he and Von had their match end in a draw and they just brawled throughout the arena. This definitely calls for a Falls Count Anywhere match between the two for the next big episode of NXT. And we got a pretty decent bar vignette from Briggs, Jensen and Pretty Deadly to set up their NXT UK Tag Team Championship match. I expected Briggs & Jensen to have their first easy defense be in NXT UK but whatever, NXT needs ratings, too.
Sanga is clearly becoming NXT’s newest ladies man as he continues to charm both Leon and Feroz, and he continues to whoop whoever steps to him. Duke Hudson also got the short stick of things because of who got cut and when. There was so much more potential for Duke, Dexter, Indi and Persia, but nope, Nick Khan said to let Dexter and Persia go and now Duke is lost in jobber limbo. Gacy’s promo didn’t do much, but it did establish that one, their faction has a name, “The Schism,” and two, The Dyad will show themselves so that we’ll all see what we knew: It’s Grizzled Young Veterans, Gibson & Drake.
Tony D’Angelo and the rest had a good promo section, and while he was telling Cruz & Wilde they had to prove their worth, where was the moment during the match where they did something? I was watching the whole time, saw nothing remotely similar to cheating or distracting. Them beating up Malik after was a rather cheap way to put pressure on them, but I bet that while Cruz & Wilde rejoin Escobar, there’s a good chance Lopez stays loyal to The Don since he’s been complimenting her good work.
We’re getting an interesting next step for “Axiom”/A-Kid. They were hiding his face, even though anyone who has heard him talk can tell it’s him, because he’s becoming a masked wrestler. The mask looks very good, and it does fit with him having a name that sounds very much like a comic book superhero, and with A-Kid’s in-ring ability, it will all blend together perfectly. I just didn’t expect this to be the direction they’d take him after how strongly NXT UK built him in their midcard.
My Score: 8.2/10

Mexico City fires up for the Blackhat Cowboy as he makes his way into Arena Mexico for the first time! Hangman has a mic to say, “Hola! Mi nombre es Hangman.” And he asks they excuse his Espanol, it isn’t the best. But Hangman knows that like most White people, he’ll do his best.

As Dax Harwood & Stokely Hathaway make their way out, #BigStoke has a mic and he has them cut the music. Stokely has some good news and some bad news.

Kazuchika Okada w/ Don Callis VS Mark Briscoe!
The Rainmaker has a Winner Takes All match with long-time rival, Kenny Omega, but he crossed a line! Not only has Okada joined Don Callis just to stick it to The Cleaner, but Okada hospitalized Omega with a brutal attack to the stomach! Will the Sussex County Chicken get a semblance of revenge on Omega’s behalf? Or will Okada make it rain in Arena Mexico?
The fans are fired up for Okada while he and Briscoe get face to face. The ref has them back away to their corners, then the bell rings. Okada and Briscoe step up again, then Briscoe shoves Okada! Okada bails out and the fans boo. Briscoe waits on Okada while commentary tells Callis he and Okada committed the most despicable thing in all of wrestling. Callis of course says it was the most shrewd tactical move in the history of wrestling. Okada takes his time returning into the ring, and then he circles with Briscoe. They tie up and are in a deadlock. They go around, Okada puts Briscoe on the ropes, but he lets off slowly.
Okada fakes the chop, and pats Briscoe on the shoulders. The fans are torn, but Briscoe kicks Okada and TOSSES him! The fans cheer as Briscoe builds speed, but Okada steps aside so Briscoe can’t dive. Briscoe gives chase, though, and they go around the outside. They slide back in, and Okada CLOBBERS Briscoe! The fans are torn as Okada CLUBS away. Okada fires forearms, storms up to stomp Briscoe in the corner, and then ELBOWS him! The fans are torn but Okada brings Briscoe around for a BIG back suplex. But Briscoe lands out, and hits the Crane Stance! Okada takes a swing, Briscoe ducks, and Briscoe CHOPS!
Briscoe whips, Okada reverses, but Briscoe slides under the boot! Crane Stance! Crane feint, then the CRANE KICK! The fans fire up as Briscoe stands up in his Redneck Kung-Fu stance. Briscoe stands Okada up to ROCK with a haymaker, then ROCKS him again. Okada staggers, Briscoe is on him with a CHOP! The fans “WOO~” and Callis acknowledges those heavy hands of Briscoe’s. Briscoe bumps Okada off buckles, stomps a mudhole, then stops as the ref counts 4. Briscoe then grinds his forearm into Okada’s face! The ref counts again, Briscoe stops at 4, and he whips corner to corner. Okada reverses but Briscoe goes up and out.
Okada runs up but Briscoe blocks a shot to ROCK Okada! Briscoe then RAMS into Okada, throws him out of the ring, and then DIVES! Direct hit and the fans fire up! Briscoe high-fives the front row before he puts Okada in the ring. Okada goes to a corner, Briscoe runs up and LARIATS! Briscoe goes corner to corner again, but Okada BOOTS him! Briscoe just fires up! Okada dodges this time, and he hoists Briscoe up to DROPKICK him down to the floor! The fans fire up while Grand Slam goes picture in picture.
Okada waits while Briscoe is down and out. A ring count starts, Briscoe stirs, but then Okada goes out to fetch Briscoe. Briscoe fires body shots but Okada kicks low! DDT to the floor! Okada leaves Briscoe behind and the ring count starts again. Briscoe rises up, leans on commentary, and he tells Callis off before he goes to the ring at 6 of 10. Okada is on Briscoe with another DDT! Cover, TWO! Briscoe toughs it out and Okada is annoyed. Okada stalks Briscoe to a corner, but Briscoe kicks low! Okada ELBOWS Briscoe, whips corner to corner, then runs in and ELBOWS Briscoe down! Okada paces while soaking up cheers and jeers.
Okada goes back to Briscoe and drags him up. Okada reels Briscoe in, turns him, and hits a NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO! Briscoe is still in this and he rises up. Okada is on him with a chinlock and bends him back! Briscoe endures as Okada leans on the hold, and Briscoe fights around to stand back up. But Okada drags Briscoe back down! Briscoe still fights, Grand Slam returns to single picture, and the fans rally up. Briscoe rises again, fires body shots, then runs, ducks ‘n’ dodges, but Okada hits a FLAPJACK! Okada is ice cold while the fans fire up. Okada brings Briscoe up, gut wrenches, but Briscoe fights to a victory roll! TWO!
Okada runs up, Briscoe waistlocks, but Okada switches. Briscoe breaks free to PELE! Both men are down and the fans fire up again! Briscoe pounds the mat and the fans rally. Briscoe rises, Okada stands, and they throw forearms back and forth! Briscoe ROCKS Okada, and Okada comes back to CLAW Briscoe’s eyes! Okada whips, but Briscoe reverses and CHOPS! Briscoe fires forearms, then whips. Okada reverses but Briscoe FLYING FOREARMS! The fans fire up again and both men rise up. Briscoe winds up to LARIAT in the corner! Briscoe brings Okada out to a FISHERMAN BUSTER! Cover, TWO!
The fans fire up as Okada stays in this! Briscoe clutches his neck but he brings Okada back up. Okada fights the clinch, the fans duel, and Okada puts Briscoe on ropes.

Or will MJF somehow screw over the arguably greatest and most beloved man in CMLL?
In fact, to counter MJF being an American idiot, Mistico takes off his Sin Cara mask to reveal the colors of Mexico’s flag and therefore the colors of his people.

Moxley is frozen in place, and now The Opps & Ospreay get in the ring! The Maniac decides discretion is the better part of valor, and The Death Riders are in retreat. But there’s no running from what’s coming! 24 days remain before All In, will they be the last 24 days Moxley has as champion?
My Thoughts:
Awesome night for AEW’s first show in Mexico, even with things going about how I expected. For one, Mone of course won the title, because why else would they even do this match if not to give her one more belt? Though, what’s wild is that she picked up another belt without much hype or press from AEW. I guess European Wrestling Alliance hopes this gets them some attention. But good stuff with Toni Storm’s noir video and the sneak attack. And I would hope Toni retains the title at All In to keep Mone from going Ultimo Dragon just yet.
Cash Wheeler and Claudio Castagnoli both had travel issues, so I understand subbing people in. But did a 12 Man Tag really need to become a 14 Man Tag for it? And seeing as how I don’t cover CMLL’s own programming, I have NO idea why Atlantis Senior & Junior are getting booed. Is it a “Cena Wins LOL” situation where Junior is winning too much? That’s the only thing I can really think of offhand. But naturally, the Faces of that match won, as The Don Callis Family was rolling last week and needed humbling. I would think we still get Adam Cole VS Kyle Fletcher 2 now, and maybe Kyle wins the title so that the Don Callis Family has something.
Although, Callis seems to be bringing Okada into the fold for whatever reason, so he could end up bringing the “Unified” Continental & International Championship to the family. Okada VS Briscoe was great, and naturally Okada got the win. Mistico VS MJF was great stuff, up until MJF gave up and gave Mistico the win there. I know MJF loves getting heat, but him being the first man to snatch Mistico’s mask away like that is some HUGE heat. Also, I think I said it way back during some feud Penta had in AEW, but are masks really sacred if they’re willing to let them get ripped, stretched, and even yanked away? Or has that been lucha libre kayfabe all along? Either way, great stuff with JetSpeed and the other luchadores showing up, lots of matches set up with that.
Great Fatal 4 Way, and great win for Hologram to stay undefeated, but I will again criticize needing to do money prizes for these things. They should’ve set Hologram up for a title match twice over by now but TK is apparently making Hologram his top undefeated guy. Like if Goldberg was more than just big and strong and could actually do stuff… Also, while they obviously didn’t work together the entire time, I just feel like Ricochet having Lio Rush & Action Andretti become his crew (what with them being CRU and all) is the right move. Or perhaps this story of finding a faction is going to be an ongoing gag that no one likes Ricochet and would never follow him.
Then a great 10 Man Tag main event, though a little redundant considering Anarchy in the Arena was only a few weeks ago. Still good stuff for everybody, especially Mortos since he got to sub in for Claudio. Of course Marina gets involved so that the Heels win, but great stuff with Hangman going after Moxley. Hangman did a great job in his promo speaking Espanol to show respect to the fans. Naturally, Moxley gets away, that’s his whole thing. I really hope Ospreay, Swerve and The Opps keep the Death Riders and Bucks at bay so Hangman doesn’t get screwed over at All In. It’d be garbage if, after all this time and energy, it doesn’t pay off with Hangman as the triumphant hero.
My Score: 9/10
