00:00:00Then, now, forever, together.
00:00:31Yo.
00:00:34Yeah.
00:00:35$5 million from now, I want a million, million, million.
00:00:39$5 million from now, I won't remember you.
00:00:41I don't give a god.
00:00:42I won't forget how I got what I got.
00:00:44Call me a river, cause I'm on a yacht.
00:00:46I get a deal, and then I get some equity.
00:00:48When I get money, then I buy some land.
00:00:50Yeah, I got gold with me.
00:00:51Know what I'm saying?
00:00:52In the kitchen, you know I ain't paying.
00:00:54You can ask Chef, let me know how I pan out.
00:00:56You know what I'm saying?
00:00:57$5 million from now.
00:00:59I won't remember you.
00:01:00I won't remember you.
00:01:01$1 million from now.
00:01:03It's the final NXT before this Sunday's Halloween havoc.
00:01:09$1 million from now.
00:01:11$1 million from now.
00:01:12And welcome to NXT on the CW, presented by Progressive.
00:01:20Earlier today, our champion, two-time Trick,
00:01:24and he could not be in that good of a mood
00:01:26after getting dropped last week
00:01:29by the number one contender
00:01:31to the NXT Championship of Sports.
00:01:34It's Ethan Page, who said the devil will come out on Sunday.
00:01:38These two are here ahead of their championship clash
00:01:41at Halloween Havoc.
00:01:42The International Sensations are here as well
00:01:44in our main event for the first time ever.
00:01:47Julie and Stephanie McFerr will team up,
00:01:49and they'll team up to face Fatal Influence.
00:01:52Who were influenced to be part of this main event matchup
00:01:55by a championship opportunity.
00:01:58And as I said, it's time for the final NXT
00:02:02before Halloween Havoc.
00:02:15The following contest is a tag team match
00:02:18scheduled for one fall.
00:02:21Introducing first, Kairi Sane
00:02:24and the Oscars' Damage Control.
00:02:30Welcome back to NXT.
00:02:33And Brooke, you can understand
00:02:36why Damage Control is a little upset,
00:02:39a little peeved, if you will,
00:02:41heading into this matchup here tonight.
00:02:44Yes, indeed, babe.
00:02:47You know I always say,
00:02:49concern yourself with business that concerns you.
00:02:53You do.
00:02:54Case in point, case in point,
00:02:56a little bit of payback.
00:02:58Oh, yes, ma'am.
00:03:18And their opponents,
00:03:20representing Metaphor,
00:03:23Tukara Jackson
00:03:25and Lash Lashan.
00:03:30Well, Booker, to your point,
00:03:32the business that you were alluding to,
00:03:36that Metaphor kind of stuck their nose into,
00:03:39was WWE Women's Tag Team Championship matchup.
00:03:43Let's go back to this past Friday.
00:03:44It was on SmackDown.
00:03:46Here, though, you can see
00:03:47the champions looking on
00:03:49as Lash Legend would execute
00:03:51that lash extension to Piper Niven.
00:03:54And look, you're right.
00:03:56Tukara Jackson, Lash Legend
00:03:58sticking their nose where it doesn't belong.
00:04:00But don't you believe
00:04:02that they believe they belong
00:04:04in the championship conversation.
00:04:06Oh, yes, man.
00:04:07Of course they want to be in the championship picture,
00:04:09but not just that.
00:04:11Supremacy, domination here in NXT.
00:04:15Oh, yeah, I love it, man.
00:04:17Well, truth be told,
00:04:18they have recently competed
00:04:19for the WWE Women's Tag Team titles
00:04:21and made their presence known
00:04:23not only on SmackDown,
00:04:25but also Monday Night Raw
00:04:28just 24 hours ago.
00:04:29I like it.
00:04:30You got to make your own breaks here in this business.
00:04:33Tukara Jackson, Lash Legend
00:04:35finally becoming, you know, that team.
00:04:38Oh, yes, man.
00:04:39Well, here are the NXT Universe squarely behind.
00:04:42Hero, Kairi Sane.
00:04:44Sky and Zayn, of course, former NXT Women's Champions.
00:04:48And Io Sky, the honor
00:04:50of main-eventing the first-ever
00:04:52Stand and Deliver here in NXT.
00:04:54My test right now is if Io Sky is truly one of those.
00:04:58Oh, check her out.
00:04:59Oh, quick, fast, agile, mobile, versatile.
00:05:03She has it all now.
00:05:05And, yeah, I want to come to you with this, too,
00:05:07because...
00:05:10Has the damage control really become the blueprint
00:05:14of what the NXT locker room,
00:05:16the women's locker room strives to be or want to be?
00:05:19No, no, I think they're stepping out
00:05:21and going to SmackDown,
00:05:22you know, trying to make that move.
00:05:24Everybody in that locker room
00:05:26want a piece of the action,
00:05:27a little champagne, whiskey,
00:05:29caviar, tea, just like right now.
00:05:31Oh!
00:05:32Oh, man.
00:05:33This is a problem.
00:05:34When we're talking about the damage control,
00:05:36you think about them collectively
00:05:39Damage control, women's money in the bank,
00:05:42three tag-team title reigns,
00:05:43Io Sky, former WWE Women's Champion,
00:05:45Sky, former NXT Women's Champion,
00:05:47tag-team champion here at NXT,
00:05:49women's dusting.
00:05:50I mean, the accolades just continue
00:05:52for damage control.
00:05:54As Kairi Sane fired up.
00:06:02And Jakara turning things around,
00:06:04and, you know, Bianca, Jake Cargill,
00:06:06the tag-team champion,
00:06:07keeping tabs, Booker,
00:06:09on every tag match in the WWE.
00:06:12Yes, you definitely want
00:06:13to keep your eye on the prize.
00:06:14Tag.
00:06:15Right now, the ladies
00:06:16are definitely showing
00:06:18an impunity here
00:06:20in this tag-team division,
00:06:21and this one right here,
00:06:23Last Legend,
00:06:24she's looking to move up, man.
00:06:26Well, the bougie bully
00:06:28trying to overpower
00:06:30the opposition.
00:06:32Yeah!
00:06:33Here we go!
00:06:34Here we go!
00:06:36And when it comes to metaphor,
00:06:37they'll have the size,
00:06:38the strength advantage,
00:06:39but they will not have
00:06:40the speed or the experience.
00:06:44Kairi so close,
00:06:46but again, overpowered
00:06:48all her match.
00:06:49Too much muscle, Jake.
00:06:53That was a mistake.
00:06:54That was a big mistake.
00:06:56Kairi doesn't care about
00:06:58the size charging right in,
00:06:59but she may care about it now.
00:07:01Looking for maybe a crucifix,
00:07:03but look at Lash.
00:07:06And Io trying to get involved.
00:07:08Lash with both.
00:07:11Add it up.
00:07:13Double.
00:07:14Dribble.
00:07:21And this is Lash.
00:07:23This is Jakara.
00:07:24Lash into the cover,
00:07:25center of the ring,
00:07:26hook of the leg,
00:07:27and a kick out.
00:07:28This is that new-found confidence
00:07:30that you like in the metaphor.
00:07:32Yeah, it's definitely
00:07:34moving up in the confidence department.
00:07:36Let me tell you right now,
00:07:37Lash mentioned that Jakara Jackson
00:07:39get a win here tonight.
00:07:41What do you think that means
00:07:42she's going to do for the conference?
00:07:43I'm glad you brought it up
00:07:44because how big of a match
00:07:45truly is this for metaphor?
00:07:47No, no.
00:07:48This is perhaps the biggest match
00:07:49of their career because,
00:07:50like you said,
00:07:51they're going against champions,
00:07:52Vince.
00:07:53You put yourself in that
00:07:54championship picture,
00:07:55you might be next.
00:07:56You might be the next.
00:07:57The sleeper!
00:07:58The sleeper!
00:08:00Kairi with the sleeper
00:08:01locked in,
00:08:02looking for the submission.
00:08:03Jakara on the outside
00:08:05right here in front of us
00:08:06screaming because
00:08:07you could see Lash was fading.
00:08:09It's locked in deep.
00:08:11But look at the strength
00:08:13of Lash Glacier.
00:08:15Lash again,
00:08:17just able to overpower
00:08:19the competition.
00:08:20And whoops,
00:08:21went wildly,
00:08:22didn't connect.
00:08:23Kairi coming in,
00:08:24going up,
00:08:25going around,
00:08:26wiping out Lash.
00:08:27Nice to meet you, Vince.
00:08:29It's that experience
00:08:30that you're talking about as well.
00:08:31And look at Io so wise,
00:08:33screaming Jakara.
00:08:35Kairi picked it up.
00:08:37Io fired up.
00:08:39Kairi charging in.
00:08:45And the genius of the sky
00:08:47looking to fly.
00:08:48How dynamic is that thing?
00:08:50Stuck the landing.
00:08:52Damage control is rolling
00:08:54here live on NXT.
00:08:57Live on NXT
00:08:59here on the CW.
00:09:00Jakara Jackson
00:09:01swinging away
00:09:02with Io Sky.
00:09:03We talked about how great
00:09:04Io Sky has been here at NXT.
00:09:06Nice roll through.
00:09:07Double stomp.
00:09:08Let's not forget,
00:09:09she defeated Rhea Ripley.
00:09:10Charlotte Flair become the
00:09:11NXT Women's Champion
00:09:13at In Your House.
00:09:15That is who Jakara Jackson
00:09:17is in the ring with.
00:09:18That is who Lash Legend
00:09:20is in the ring with.
00:09:21Back to your point about
00:09:22how big this matchup is.
00:09:23Not to mention
00:09:24that Kairi Sane
00:09:25who's trying to tag in
00:09:26is also former
00:09:27NXT Women's Champion.
00:09:28Yeah, talk about that
00:09:29veteran experience.
00:09:30Io Sky, Kairi Sane,
00:09:32Vic, that time spent
00:09:33in that dojo in the area
00:09:35definitely is doing them
00:09:36a lot of good right now.
00:09:38I'm going to tell you
00:09:39right now,
00:09:40if you're betting
00:09:41you're definitely going to
00:09:42go with that team,
00:09:43but Jakara Jackson
00:09:44and Lash Legend,
00:09:45this could be that moment.
00:09:47Nice spear.
00:09:48Tag team matchup
00:09:49kicking us off tonight.
00:09:50Tag team main event
00:09:51still to come,
00:09:52Julia.
00:09:54Oh, my.
00:09:55Jakara.
00:09:56For the first time ever
00:09:57in Super Bowl International
00:09:58legacy,
00:09:59the genius of the sky
00:10:00who's trying to get
00:10:01back to her feet.
00:10:02She was also an ace
00:10:03in Japan.
00:10:05Julia just one step,
00:10:06two steps ahead
00:10:07of Jackson and
00:10:09Vanjie.
00:10:10Talk about smart.
00:10:11Big shot.
00:10:12Kairi Sane
00:10:13taking out the field.
00:10:14Jakara all by herself
00:10:16at this moment.
00:10:18Could be the moment
00:10:19for Damage Control
00:10:20to take control
00:10:22of this matchup.
00:10:23What a way
00:10:24they kick off
00:10:25the final NXT
00:10:26before Halloween
00:10:27Havoc
00:10:28this Sunday.
00:10:29That's it.
00:10:30That's it.
00:10:31That's it.
00:10:32That's it.
00:10:33Jakara
00:10:34kicking out.
00:10:35I mean,
00:10:36it says a lot about Jakara.
00:10:37Jakara Jackson
00:10:38just showed me
00:10:39a whole lot right there
00:10:40because she's been taking
00:10:42the blood of this
00:10:43beating right now.
00:10:44Well, when it comes
00:10:45to metaphor,
00:10:46they certainly want to
00:10:47prove to the universe
00:10:48just how legit
00:10:49they are as a team.
00:10:51Tag was made
00:10:52and back in
00:10:53comes Io Skye.
00:10:54Oh,
00:10:55we're gonna see it.
00:10:57I gotta also give a shout out
00:10:58to Roxanne Perez,
00:10:59the NXT Women's Champion
00:11:00who recently
00:11:01passed Io Skye
00:11:02for total days
00:11:03as Women's Champion
00:11:05here at NXT.
00:11:06But look at this
00:11:07two for one
00:11:08combination.
00:11:09Beautiful tag team
00:11:11tantum
00:11:12and that is it.
00:11:13Last breaking up
00:11:14the count.
00:11:16In the nick
00:11:17of time.
00:11:18Take another look.
00:11:20Feel the impact
00:11:22from Kairi Sane.
00:11:23So innovative,
00:11:24so innovative.
00:11:25That right there
00:11:26is just being together
00:11:27for so long,
00:11:28knowing each other
00:11:29like the back of their hands.
00:11:30Take a look at the NXT Universe
00:11:31on their feet.
00:11:32Tag was made
00:11:33and it was legal.
00:11:34Oh!
00:11:35And I think when Kairi
00:11:36went to get underneath
00:11:37the ropes,
00:11:38he might have
00:11:39hit the ropes
00:11:40just so little
00:11:41that that little bit
00:11:42threw off Io Skye.
00:11:43Last missed a moment
00:11:44right there.
00:11:45Should've taken advantage
00:11:46of that two hit.
00:11:48Oh!
00:11:49Nasty.
00:11:50Nasty.
00:11:52And the genius
00:11:53of the Skye now
00:11:54could be looking
00:11:55to fly.
00:11:59Feeling the love again
00:12:02from the NXT Universe.
00:12:04Oh!
00:12:05Ja'Karl rolling out of the way.
00:12:06Quick tag was made.
00:12:07He doesn't realize.
00:12:08Yes, it's legal!
00:12:09Oh!
00:12:10Big pump kick!
00:12:14And that power
00:12:15once again
00:12:16on display
00:12:17at Fat Break.
00:12:18This could be
00:12:19the X Factor
00:12:20right here.
00:12:21Lash legend
00:12:22coming in right now
00:12:23and cleaning house.
00:12:25This could be
00:12:26the biggest win
00:12:27as you mentioned
00:12:29for Metaphor.
00:12:30For momentum.
00:12:31Oh!
00:12:32What the?
00:12:35It's Piper Niven!
00:12:37Niven who was dropped.
00:12:38Her partner,
00:12:39Chelsea Green!
00:12:42From SmackDown,
00:12:43Green and Niven are here!
00:12:46What did you say
00:12:48about business
00:12:49that doesn't concern you?
00:12:50No, just a little different.
00:12:52Constant quick coincidence
00:12:53and reper...
00:12:56Oh!
00:12:57Beautiful!
00:12:58You can't even speak!
00:13:03Repercussions.
00:13:04That's what it is.
00:13:05That's what I'm trying
00:13:06to say right there.
00:13:07Constant coincidence
00:13:08and repercussions.
00:13:09Here we go.
00:13:10Check it out, Vic.
00:13:11You're gonna fly.

00:13:17the unexpected, Vic.
00:13:35Ladies and gentlemen,

00:14:39We're gonna go tell Ava.
00:14:40We're gonna go tell Ava.
00:14:41For me.
00:14:42See you later.
00:14:43All right, we'll see y'all later.
00:14:44See you later.
00:14:45Bye-bye.
00:14:46Bye-bye.
00:14:47I'm a Cole, a winner.
00:14:48You hear that, boo?
00:14:49Hank and Tank are gonna have Cole Custer,
00:14:51last year's NASCAR X-Menity Series champion, here tonight.
00:14:55I'm loving it, man.
00:14:56The following podcast is scheduled for a fall.
00:15:04Introducing first, accompanied by ODM,
00:15:09from Fort St. Lucie, Florida, Jada Parker!
00:15:15Well, get ready, both of you,
00:15:16because after what we just saw,
00:15:17I feel it's only the beginning of the turmoil
00:15:19in the women's tag team division,
00:15:21but this is a woman who is looking to turn heads tonight.
00:15:24Jada Parker, Tatum Paxley.
00:15:26This matchup is presented by Progressive,
00:15:28and it's next.
00:15:31USA.
00:15:33You got it.
00:15:34Last one.
00:15:35Ten.
00:15:36Sweet.
00:15:37That was way too easy.
00:15:40Did you guys see Ashanti tried to give me a rose
00:15:42for, like, the third time?
00:15:43Get a hint.
00:15:44Clearly he's not getting a hint.
00:15:45Right.
00:15:46Carmen, it seems like you're gonna be a little interested.
00:15:49Right?
00:15:50Carmen.
00:15:52Dang.
00:15:54You know, I couldn't help but notice
00:15:55that we shared a look last week,
00:15:57and I definitely think we was feeling each other.
00:16:01Oh, is that what you thought?
00:16:03You cost me a match, so I thought I'd return the favor.
00:16:07But honestly, I was just assuming.
00:16:09Right.
00:16:10Assuming.
00:16:11And you know what assuming does.
00:16:13Huh.
00:16:14And what's that?
00:16:17Okay, so she's not interested.
00:16:20Yeah, no.
00:16:21That's enough of that.
00:16:22Yeah.
00:16:23Yeah, we'll see.
00:16:24Bye.
00:16:25Dude, you cannot deny that there's nothing going on
00:16:27between you two.
00:16:28Right.
00:16:29Because you know what's best for me, right?
00:16:31You know what I like?
00:16:32You don't.
00:16:33But you're about to find out.
00:16:35Okay.
00:16:36Dude, what the heck was that?
00:16:38It's a canon event.
00:17:01NXT coming to the historic 2300 Arena
00:17:04in South Philadelphia Wednesday, November 6th.
00:17:07Tickets on sale now at 2300arena.com.
00:17:12Booker, can you believe it?
00:17:13We are headed back to Philadelphia.
00:17:15More importantly, we're headed to the historic 2300 Arena.
00:17:19You just said it, man.
00:17:20I'm going to tell you, if the walls could talk in that arena,
00:17:23trust me, the stories that would be told,
00:17:26but now the stories that are about to be created.
00:17:29Oh, my God, man.
00:17:31I cannot wait for November the 6th NXT on a Wednesday night,
00:17:36but we got to focus back in on the action here,
00:17:38the action at hand right now, because there is Tatum Haxley.
00:17:44And her opponent, from Dallas, Texas,
00:17:47Tatum Haxley!
00:17:50I thought that was Tim Michael and his woman right there,
00:17:53but when you think about Tatum Haxley,
00:17:55freaky and spooky and mysterious and spooky.
00:17:58She fits in with the season of Halloween.
00:18:01She's a little spooky but yet dangerous at the same time.
00:18:06Jada Parker, keep your head on a swivel.
00:18:09When it comes to Jada Parker, I mean,
00:18:11is she getting back to her roots, so to speak,
00:18:14as being unapologetic?
00:18:15I just think she's finding herself.
00:18:17She's coming into her own.
00:18:18She knows exactly what she wants out of this business.
00:18:22That was Parker who interrupted Haxley last week,
00:18:25and as you can imagine, for Tatum,
00:18:27she wasn't very amused as Haxley,
00:18:30into the cover, hooked the leg and a kickout.
00:18:32I get it, too, because I'm going to tell you,
00:18:34airtime is worth its weight in gold, man.
00:18:37You don't want nobody stealing that.
00:18:39You already mentioned it, Tatum,
00:18:41though a big fan of the Halloween season,
00:18:43rolling around, shoulders down,
00:18:44though the near fall, Jada Parker, not so much.
00:18:47But as we've mentioned tonight,
00:18:48the final NXT before Sunday's Halloween Havoc,
00:18:51premium live event tickets on sale now.
00:18:53Ticketmaster.com, first premium live event
00:18:56in Hershey PA since 2003,
00:18:59and right now, rolling Parker around.
00:19:03When will it stop?
00:19:04Only, oh, and it did right there,
00:19:06cover, and another near fall.
00:19:09That's what Tatum Haxley loves to do,
00:19:11just create some in-ring chaos, so to speak,
00:19:14but she's trying to refocus,
00:19:16and it dropped it right under the jaw.
00:19:18And it was Haxley who came to the aid of Soul Ruka
00:19:21a few weeks back, if you remember,
00:19:23and Haxley right into the midsection.
00:19:25I'll tell you right now, Tatum Haxley
00:19:26has a great strategy going into this match
00:19:29against Jada Parker.
00:19:30Got a little dizzy with that little round and round,
00:19:33but here we go, here we go, Victor.
00:19:37You may find yourself dizzy once again.
00:19:41Once again, and there's one thing we know about Jada.
00:19:44Jada don't play.
00:19:46I tell you something, high stepping, high stepping,
00:19:49high stepping, high stepping.
00:19:50Let me tell you, Jada Parker, she's on a mission, man.
00:19:53She's on a mission.
00:19:55Well, she seems to have re-found,
00:19:57if you take a look at that,
00:19:59she seems to have re-found that chip
00:20:02that was on her shoulder early on in her career.
00:20:05I don't think she ever lost that chip,
00:20:06but I think it was just taking a step back
00:20:08to take a step forward to just see exactly
00:20:11what this thing is truly all about.
00:20:13Get that playbook right.
00:20:14That's what I'm talking about.
00:20:15Here we go, here we go.
00:20:18So close.
00:20:19Pax able to fight out,
00:20:20and I just still can't believe Jada Parker's actions
00:20:23a few weeks ago, and speaking of which,
00:20:26there is Lola Weiss
00:20:30staring a hole through the screen,
00:20:32which I'm sure is a hole right through Jada Parker,
00:20:35and I can't believe that it was Jada Parker
00:20:37who walked out on Lola Weiss several weeks ago.
00:20:40Jada, she never wanted none of that, man.
00:20:42She had issues with failing too well.
00:20:44You gotta blame April for that, right?
00:20:46No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:20:47You put that on April.
00:20:48That April, come on, man.
00:20:50The same issues with failing.
00:20:51I thought that would have helped her focus
00:20:53on the task at hand is up, around,
00:20:55shoulders down, kick out.
00:20:56Is this what you started thinking?
00:20:58Huh?
00:20:59I think for you every single week,
00:21:00people just don't know is Pax
00:21:01is getting the right foot up,
00:21:02creating a little separation,
00:21:04swinging a miss by Parker,
00:21:05comes right back in, and goes face,
00:21:08face to the knee.
00:21:09Big shot, big shot right now.
00:21:11Jada Parker is staged and confused.
00:21:16And Paxley is focused and backing on the offense.
00:21:20And Pax right now starting to rock,
00:21:22starting to roll.
00:21:23Again, OTM who is out here for a moment.
00:21:25They got a matchup later tonight with Hank and Tank.
00:21:28They certainly may be rethinking their strategy.
00:21:30Maybe they wanted to stay out here with Miss Parker.
00:21:32Miss Parker, who I think we can agree
00:21:34hasn't been in the best of moods recently,
00:21:37might find herself in a worse mood
00:21:39here in just a few moments.
00:21:41Innovative offense from Paxley.
00:21:43Hook of the leg.
00:21:44Will it be enough?
00:21:45And a nothing here.
00:21:46Yeah, you gotta talk about those obstacles
00:21:48all the time right now.
00:21:49Jada Paxley is the ultimate obstacle
00:21:52in Jada Parker's way.
00:21:55Here we go, here we go.
00:21:57And so close.
00:21:59Parker able to power out.
00:22:00It's a gurry, does not connect.
00:22:03Paxley swung for a moment.
00:22:05And now Jada one more time.
00:22:07Paxlow able to counter.
00:22:09Paxley rolling through, back to her feet.
00:22:12And oh!
00:22:14Maybe not with all the force,
00:22:16but a second one with a little extra.
00:22:19Hip knock!
00:22:21And Parker proving her point tonight.
00:22:27Here's your winner, Jada Parker!
00:22:33Tell you what, Booker, you just do not want to...
00:22:35Hey!
00:22:37The rule of ice.
00:22:38Who's watching this matchup closely,
00:22:40trying to get herself a piece of Parker.
00:22:43Officials doing their job,
00:22:45trying to keep these two separated.
00:22:47That's how...
00:22:48Wendy Chu!
00:22:49What? Whoa!
00:22:51Chu just snatched Paxley!
00:22:53Oh, yeah, what's going on?
00:22:55I mean, what's she doing?
00:22:57What do you mean, wait, that's a low case.
00:23:00Where the hell is she?
00:23:01Where's she wheeling her to?
00:23:04We're gonna interrupt you guys in your little meeting.
00:23:06Charlie, I just wanted to say thanks again.
00:23:08But here's the thing.
00:23:09Even though I won that match clean,
00:23:10it seems like people are still doubting my sincerity,
00:23:13and I just don't get it.
00:23:14Well, you know, around here,
00:23:15change of perception can be a bit rough.
00:23:17Yeah, I realize that.
00:23:18But I also realize we have quite a lot in common.
00:23:20You know, technical wrestling prowess,
00:23:22fantastic facial hair.
00:23:25And we're just a couple guys trying to figure it out.
00:23:27You know, and what I'm trying to figure out
00:23:29is how I can get people to stop looking at me
00:23:30as some kind of loose cannon.
00:23:32You know, I'm a real straight shooter, all right?
00:23:34And I know I joked about that cup last week,
00:23:36but I wasn't joking.
00:23:38Man, people respect you because of that, okay?
00:23:41And I'm sure your father respects you, too.
00:23:43And that's why I need to win that cup,
00:23:45so I can get that same respect.
00:23:47Look, I know that feeling, Lexus,
00:23:50trying to step up from your father's shadow and all that.
00:23:52Do you really think winning this cup
00:23:54is gonna change any of that for you?
00:23:56It's worth a shot.
00:23:58You know what, Lexus?
00:24:00I believe in what you're trying to do.
00:24:01Miles, go to Ava's office
00:24:03and tell her that Lexus here has his match.
00:24:06Huh?
00:24:08Look, you can have this match for the Heritage Cup,
00:24:11but it's not gonna be the outcome you want.
00:24:13We shall see.
00:24:15All you need now is the corner man.
00:24:18The corner man.
00:24:23We'll see if Ava proves that match-up,
00:24:25but ahead of tables, ladders, and stairs
00:24:27on Sunday at Halloween Havoc,
00:24:29Oba Femi looks to send a direct message to the Don
00:24:33at the expense of Luca Crucifino.
00:24:36This match-up is live.
00:24:37It's next on NXT.
00:24:48Oh, here he is.
00:24:49The man of the moment.
00:24:50Back-to-back main events.
00:24:51You were so close to becoming number one contender, too.
00:24:53Seconds away, literally.
00:24:54Yeah, yeah, I know.
00:24:55Don't worry, man. You'll get there.
00:24:57Ah, commiserations, young OG.
00:24:59Falling at the final hurdle again.
00:25:01Man, it is tough.
00:25:03Ah, you're young, though. You got time.
00:25:05Okay, he's trying to poke at me.
00:25:06You trying to poke at me?
00:25:07Hey, relax.
00:25:08No, no, I'm sick of people saying,
00:25:09oh, yeah, yeah, you got time.
00:25:10Ain't nobody trying to hear that.
00:25:11Hey, no one's poking at you, man.
00:25:12You'll win the big one eventually.
00:25:13I mean, it's going to be a while,
00:25:14but you'll win the big one eventually.
00:25:16Hey, I got some friendly advice for you.
00:25:18Get used to it, kid.
00:25:20I had to deal with all that kind of stuff
00:25:21when I was your age.
00:25:22This is funny.
00:25:23What are they doing?
00:25:24This is funny.
00:25:25What?
00:25:26Oh!
00:25:30That's what happens.
00:25:31Yep, yep, that's what happens.
00:25:33That's what happens.
00:25:34Yep, that's what happens.
00:25:36I knew it was just a matter of time
00:25:38before somebody got under your skin.
00:25:40Ooh, that was spicy.
00:25:41Look, hate's going to come to you from all directions.
00:25:44First, it's your age.
00:25:46Then, it's because you're too successful.
00:25:48Well, you got time for that.
00:25:51Oh, you trying to be funny, too?
00:25:52Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:25:53Chill, chill, chill, chill.
00:25:54Come on, chill.
00:25:55Okay, relax, relax.

00:25:57that is Ethan Page.

00:26:38Julia's arrived.
00:26:39Here we go.
00:26:41And these international superstars
00:26:43standing tall.
00:26:45YouTube versus iTunes.
00:26:49Halloween Havoc.
00:26:51A challenge has been issued.
00:26:52Will it be accepted?
00:26:55To become the first South American
00:26:57to fight for the world,
00:26:59I had to go through unknown paths.
00:27:03To get to places
00:27:04where no one had ever gone.
00:27:06I'm making history.
00:27:08I built myself from scratch.
00:27:11And it wasn't a coincidence.
00:27:12It wasn't luck.
00:27:15Have you heard the saying,
00:27:17I've traveled the world?
00:27:19I did.
00:27:22I conquered Europe, Japan,
00:27:24South America, and Mexico.
00:27:26And not just that.
00:27:28I collected championships
00:27:29all over the world.
00:27:32I showed that I'm made of fire.
00:27:34And no matter how many heads
00:27:36I had to crush,
00:27:38my goal was to get to WWE.
00:27:44Stephanie and I met
00:27:45in the Japanese ring.
00:27:49Of course, we weren't friends.
00:27:51We were enemies.
00:27:52But now,
00:27:53we're next to each other.
00:27:55I came to NXT.
00:27:58It's different from anything I've done before.
00:28:01We're taking it all in
00:28:03at once.
00:28:05But who can you trust?
00:28:08She's the only one
00:28:10who's fought hard
00:28:12and has the same goal.
00:28:17Halloween Havoc.
00:28:18If we defeat
00:28:20Cora and Roxanne,
00:28:25we'll be safe.
00:28:47What's going on?
00:28:48What just happened?
00:28:50Medical!
00:28:51Who did this?
00:28:52Medical!
00:28:53Hey, hey!
00:28:54What the hell happened?
00:28:55What the hell happened?
00:28:56Why did she lay on the floor?
00:28:58Hey!
00:28:59Medical!
00:29:00Medical!
00:29:01Hey!
00:29:02Are you okay?
00:29:03What happened?
00:29:04Who did this?
00:29:05Hey, hey!
00:29:06I got this, all right?
00:29:07I'll take her to medical.
00:29:08All right, you got her.
00:29:09We got her.
00:29:10All right, let's go!
00:29:11Watch her.
00:29:12Are you all right?
00:29:13She just needs space.
00:29:15Welcome back live here on NXT.
00:29:16There you see Luka Krucifino
00:29:17just pacing after the attack of Rizzo.
00:29:20One would think the family's plans...
00:29:22Attacked.
00:29:23Did you see the attack?
00:29:26The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:29:30Introducing first,

00:29:43What do you think she did?
00:29:44What do you think she did, boy?
00:29:45She just slipped on a banana peel?
00:29:47Perhaps.
00:29:48Perhaps.
00:29:49You jump to conclusions, man.
00:29:50Don't do that.
00:29:52Ooh!

00:30:50in a tables, ladders, and scares match
00:30:54this Sunday at Halloween Havoc,
00:30:56the third such match in NXT history.
00:31:00This is gonna be good, Vic.
00:31:02You know what I say about Oba.
00:31:04No bread, no water, just meat.
00:31:08Here we go!
00:31:09And there goes Luka Kruisefina again,
00:31:11the ruler of NXT,
00:31:12certainly looking to re-establish
00:31:15dominance here in NXT.
00:31:17But would you be worried right now
00:31:18if you were a member of the family?
00:31:20I mean, not only because of Oba's war past,
00:31:23but also what happened to Rizzo.
00:31:25Not that I'm trying to jump to conclusions,
00:31:27I'm just saying it was a chaotic situation
00:31:29before the break.
00:31:30Yes, I would be a little worried.
00:31:31I mean, Oba right now is definitely,
00:31:33like you say, on the warpath,
00:31:35looking to reclaim what's rightfully his.
00:31:38I feel that.
00:31:39Big shoulder breaker by Oba Femi,
00:31:41and I sort of feel bad for Luka.
00:31:44Bad?
00:31:45This is called paying your dues, man.
00:31:47This is called proving your mettle
00:31:49inside that square circle.
00:31:51What are you talking about feeling bad?
00:31:53Well, Luka Kruisefina showed no fear last week.
00:31:56He stepped up for the family,
00:31:57which we knew he would,
00:31:58and right now the family in dire straits,
00:32:00because if you look around,
00:32:01Stacks is out here,
00:32:02but the Don right now is tending to Rizzo
00:32:06at this very moment.
00:32:07That had to alter the plan
00:32:08of what the family was hoping to do tonight
00:32:11against Oba Femi.
00:32:12This is a different Oba Femi tonight, Vic.
00:32:15Doesn't seem like he's playing around,
00:32:17no messing around,
00:32:18just strictly business.
00:32:20Longest reigning North American champion
00:32:22in NXT history
00:32:23had 10 successful title defenses
00:32:26and looking to reclaim the championship
00:32:29this Sunday at Halloween Havoc.
00:32:31I mean, how destructive do you think
00:32:34Oba Femi will be
00:32:36when there are no rules
00:32:37in that tables, ladders, and scares match?
00:32:40You know, Vic,
00:32:41I talk about that cloak of invincibility,
00:32:43and the question is,
00:32:45is it broken,
00:32:46and can this man, Oba Femi, get it back?
00:32:50We're gonna find out on Sunday.
00:32:53Oh, jumping knee, though,
00:32:56from Kruisefina,
00:32:57and look, he's not in his law office right now.
00:33:00He's in the squared circle.
00:33:01He's not running papers
00:33:02and drawing up contracts and agreements.
00:33:04He's trying to survive.
00:33:06Let me tell you something.
00:33:07Kruisefina, he's a smart dude.
00:33:09He knows what he's in for here tonight.
00:33:11Trying to turn to that neck breaker.
00:33:13Oh, able to tuck a clothesline
00:33:15and deliver a neck breaker of his own.
00:33:17The door has opened,
00:33:19and for Oba Femi right now,
00:33:20this is unusual territory.
00:33:22He felt and tasted defeat
00:33:24for the first time in a long time.
00:33:26Oh, wait a minute, Vic.
00:33:28Wondering how he will respond.
00:33:30Oh!
00:33:32That's certainly one way to respond
00:33:34if you're Luca.
00:33:36I think he calls that the law breaker.
00:33:39And, ooh.
00:33:41That's just painful.
00:33:43That is just painful.
00:33:45I'll tell you one thing,
00:33:46the guard proved that Oba Femi
00:33:48is just a man and Kruisefina
00:33:50is trying to test that.
00:33:53But he's feeling the pain right now, Vic.
00:33:56Just got tossed,
00:33:57and we know what is next.
00:33:59A fall from Kruise.
00:34:01Good God, man.
00:34:03And that powerbomb just silenced Kruisefina
00:34:07tonight.
00:34:12Here is your winner,
00:34:14Oba Femi!
00:34:20Well, we knew Oba Femi
00:34:22was coming in with a mission.
00:34:24Hey!
00:34:26He just locked out the underbars
00:34:28right back in on Luca.
00:34:34Oh!
00:34:35I don't know if Stacks is gonna regret
00:34:38this decision, but we talked about
00:34:40that establishing of dominance.
00:34:42Oh, man, Stacks all men, though.
00:34:44Stacks all men, Vic.
00:34:45Oh, he is.
00:34:46But look what Oba Femi is doing
00:34:48to two.
00:34:50To two men.
00:34:52And he's doing it with ease.
00:34:54We talked about how Oba Femi
00:34:55is on the warpath
00:34:57looking to recapture
00:34:59the North American champion.
00:35:01Oh, baby.
00:35:03Should we move, Vic?
00:35:04I think we shall,
00:35:05but just remember
00:35:06what takes place this Sunday.
00:35:08Here's the Don!
00:35:10The Don finally getting out here
00:35:12after turning to Rizzo,
00:35:13coming out here to fight the battle
00:35:15for a family.
00:35:19Overpowered by Oba.
00:35:24Oba Femi! Oba Femi!
00:35:27Oba Femi! Oba Femi!
00:35:31What's Oba doing?
00:35:33What did he just...
00:35:37Booker, what did Oba just...
00:35:38He just grabbed that in front of you.
00:35:39What did he do?
00:35:40Oba's taking it to another level, Vic.
00:35:42This is...
00:35:43This is real serious, Don.
00:35:46Booker, I can't...
00:35:48I see out here, I mean,
00:35:49right here at our feet,
00:35:50I mean, Oba Femi
00:35:51has just taken out
00:35:53the family,
00:35:54and it now is Mathai
00:35:56almost enjoying
00:35:58what he's doing,
00:35:59and if you look out here
00:36:00to our right,
00:36:01tables, ladders, and stairs,
00:36:05Sunday at Halloween Havoc.
00:36:10The Don is tied!
00:36:11Booker, the Don!
00:36:13I think that's a zip tie!
00:36:15And stats just got put
00:36:16through this table!
00:36:18Booker, look at the Don!
00:36:19He can't do anything!
00:36:23Booker!
00:36:29Move, Vic!
00:36:30I'm trying!
00:36:32Holy...
00:36:33What the...
00:36:35Can we get some help?
00:36:36The Don, look at the Don!
00:36:37The Don is zip tied!
00:36:38He can't even get off the post!
00:36:40This is a preview, Vic.
00:36:42This is a preview
00:36:43of what's gonna happen
00:36:45on Sunday night!
00:36:47Oba Femi is forcing the Don
00:36:49to watch him destroy his family!
00:36:54Boo!
00:37:00Absolutely hell!
00:37:09Tables, ladders, and stairs.
00:37:13I'm gonna help you,
00:37:14I'm not looking for you!
00:37:15I'll kick your ass!
00:37:24Boo!
00:37:30Boo!
00:37:38Boo!
00:37:49Booker, there is
00:37:50the number one contender
00:37:52Ethan Page.
00:37:53He is getting ready to address
00:37:55the NXT Universe
00:37:56ahead of a Devil's Playground match
00:37:59against the NXT Champions.
00:38:01Two-time trick,
00:38:02Williams and Page
00:38:03address the NXT Universe
00:38:05live next.
00:38:13Andre Chase University
00:38:14is all the little things in life.
00:38:16It's all about empowerment,
00:38:18potential,
00:38:19giving opportunity to people
00:38:20when nobody else would.
00:38:22Opening doors for them
00:38:23when others will slam
00:38:24in their face.
00:38:25It's a place where you can
00:38:26truly make a change
00:38:27for the better,
00:38:29if you want.
00:38:31But that wasn't the case
00:38:32for you, was it, Rich Holland?
00:38:34You came back to NXT
00:38:35looking for redemption.
00:38:36And together,
00:38:37one day at a time,
00:38:39Chase U was gonna help you
00:38:40prove that you were misunderstood,
00:38:42that you were unrightfully labeled.
00:38:44We welcomed you in
00:38:45with open arms
00:38:46for the first time
00:38:47you felt what it was like
00:38:48to be part of a family.
00:38:51We won tag team gold together.
00:38:53Rich, the redemption you wanted
00:38:54was right there in your hands.
00:38:57But that's when I realized
00:38:58that the measure of a man
00:39:00doesn't come in victory.
00:39:02It comes in defeat.
00:39:04I realized there's no saving you
00:39:07and that everyone
00:39:08was right about you.
00:39:10I can't make you feel the hurt
00:39:11that you caused Riley,
00:39:13the pain that you caused Duke.
00:39:14I sure as hell can't make you
00:39:16feel the heartbreak
00:39:17that you put Thea through.
00:39:21But I can make you
00:39:22feel what I felt
00:39:23at No Mercy
00:39:24when you put me in an ambulance.
00:39:26So this Sunday
00:39:27at Halloween Havoc,
00:39:29I'm gonna put an end
00:39:30to your misery
00:39:31in an ambulance match.
00:39:33♪♪
00:39:38Well, Booker, a fired up
00:39:40Andre Chase
00:39:42is looking for payback.
00:39:44While this man
00:39:45is looking for
00:39:46his championship back.
00:39:48♪♪
00:39:51Ladies and gentlemen,
00:39:53please welcome
00:39:55All Eagle
00:39:58Ethan Page!
00:40:01One thing I will say
00:40:02about Ethan Page
00:40:03is last week we spun
00:40:05that Halloween Havoc reel.
00:40:06You remember that?
00:40:07Who's the man?
00:40:08It landed on Devil's Playground.
00:40:10Who's the man?
00:40:11And then he swung
00:40:12and dropped
00:40:13with the master plan.
00:40:16That would be this man
00:40:18right here,
00:40:19Ethan Page.
00:40:21Oh, yes!
00:40:23♪♪
00:40:28Uh-huh.
00:40:30Uh-huh.
00:40:32Oh, yeah, man.
00:40:34♪♪
00:40:39The people love it, man.
00:40:41That's true, man.
00:40:43And...
00:40:44the...
00:40:45NXT champion...
00:40:48Trey...
00:40:50Williams!
00:40:52Uh-huh.
00:40:53Uh-huh.
00:40:55Say what?
00:40:57Oh, yeah, man.
00:40:58Hey, y'all, I appreciate that.
00:40:59I appreciate that.
00:41:00Let's cut the music.
00:41:01Let's cut the music.
00:41:02Let me get straight to the point.
00:41:04Page, for what you did to me last week,
00:41:08I should have came out here tonight
00:41:10and dropped your ass like a mixtape.
00:41:13But I ain't gonna do that,
00:41:16because I promised Ava
00:41:18I'm gonna wait till Sunday.
00:41:20But what I did learn about you last week, dog,
00:41:24you scurred.
00:41:26You ain't all ego.
00:41:28You all desperate, dog.
00:41:31Maybe.
00:41:35Maybe I am desperate.
00:41:39Or maybe that's just what I wanted you to think.
00:41:42Trick, maybe that's what I want everyone here to think
00:41:46and know about Ethan Page.
00:41:49I know when you look at me, Trick, you think,
00:41:52there he is, all ego,
00:41:54the man that's always pointing at his smile
00:41:57and boasting about how great he is.
00:42:00Hell, you might even know me
00:42:03as a father and a husband.
00:42:07You might even know me as a wrestler
00:42:10who's been in the game for over 17 years.
00:42:17But when I talk about those 17 years, Trick,
00:42:22you know I often gloss over everything
00:42:26I had to go through to get here.
00:42:28But let me tell you a little something.
00:42:30Me and you, we've had different paths.
00:42:35I never had a performance center like this
00:42:39with state-of-the-art equipment,
00:42:41staff on site 24-7
00:42:44to pamper and cater to me.
00:42:48I never had the greatest minds in professional wrestling
00:42:52coaching me and guiding me,
00:42:55prepping me for a top position
00:42:58in the top company.
00:43:01Trick, I had to go through hell
00:43:06to get where you're at.
00:43:09Look, I get it, dawg.
00:43:11You and me, you worked hard to get where you are.
00:43:14You had your story, and I had mine, too.
00:43:17But I ain't gonna let you shame me
00:43:19because I'm blessed, dawg.
00:43:21Oh, you get it?
00:43:24You get it.
00:43:25Trick, that line right there tells me
00:43:27that you absolutely don't get it.
00:43:30You don't.
00:43:31Let me ask you a question, Trick.
00:43:32Let me ask you a question.
00:43:34Trick, have you ever been busted open
00:43:39and had blood and sweat blur your vision?
00:43:44And you know you still have to get up
00:43:47and keep fighting.
00:43:49Trick, have you ever been hit with a weapon so hard
00:43:52that it tears flesh and you feel every ounce of it
00:43:56and know in the back of your mind,
00:43:58you gotta get up and keep going?
00:44:03Better yet, Trick,
00:44:05have you ever tasted your own blood and sweat
00:44:10and got that copper and salt
00:44:16that makes everybody else just a little uneasy and queasy
00:44:23but haven't happened so many times
00:44:26that eventually you started to like the taste of it?
00:44:31Look, bro, like I said before, I get it.
00:44:34You've been through a lot.
00:44:35You've been busted up to get here.
00:44:38Well, I'm glad you're used to it
00:44:40because I'm gonna bust your ass again on Sunday.
00:44:42There he is!
00:44:48Yeah!
00:44:52There he is, guys.
00:44:55The silver-tongued, smooth-talking,
00:44:58dressed to the nines, two-time NXT champion,
00:45:03Trick Williams, everybody.
00:45:06Yeah!
00:45:09All flash and fake confidence.
00:45:14Speaking of flash, Trick,
00:45:15that's actually why I hit you in the head
00:45:17with that light last week
00:45:18so I could give you a little glimpse
00:45:20of what's gonna happen at the Devil's Playground
00:45:23because, Trick, Devil's Playground,
00:45:26anything goes, and I mean anything,
00:45:31and that only benefits one man,
00:45:35all ego.
00:45:36Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up.
00:45:37Why you paint that, dog?
00:45:39Oh, I mean, look at you, dude.
00:45:41You look great.
00:45:44Oiled up body, abs out, blinged out, furred out,
00:45:49not a single hair out of place.
00:45:53You look immaculate.
00:45:54Hell, you know what?
00:45:55You've even got every skill you need
00:45:58to successfully defend your championship this Sunday.
00:46:01The only thing is, Trick,
00:46:03you don't got what I've got in me,
00:46:06and that's the devil, pal.
00:46:08I have that devil inside of me.
00:46:11You don't.
00:46:13You're just not tough.
00:46:15And frankly, you're not built for the Devil's Playground.
00:46:19And what, you stupid or something?
00:46:21I know you ain't been here that long,
00:46:23but ain't tough is crazy.
00:46:24What, you ain't seen me go to war with Mello?
00:46:26Huh?
00:46:27You ain't seen me go to war with Ilya Dragunov
00:46:29four times in this building?
00:46:30You ain't seen everything I went through with Pete Dunne?
00:46:33Oh, yeah, hold on, hold on, Trick.
00:46:34And you actually think those men are as savage as all legal?
00:46:38Do you actually think that Carmelo Hayes
00:46:42sat at home and thought of every single way
00:46:46to inflict pain on you,
00:46:48every option he had at hand?
00:46:51Do you actually believe that, Trick?
00:46:54Do you believe those men thought of ways
00:46:56to make you regret the thought
00:46:58of even trying to become a professional wrestler, Trick?
00:47:05Sunday.
00:47:06Sunday, you see a version of me
00:47:10that not only these people haven't seen,
00:47:12but I promise me, promise you,
00:47:14you haven't seen that guy
00:47:16in a ring in your entire career.
00:47:20Ego, you all talk, dawg.
00:47:23You been talking since you got here.
00:47:25Let's talk about it.
00:47:26You done everything except beat me.
00:47:29You've never beat Trick Williams.
00:47:31And even when you got that title,
00:47:33you couldn't pin me for it.
00:47:37And like I said from the jump,
00:47:40you desperate.
00:47:41You trying to do everything you can
00:47:43to stay close to this title right here.
00:47:45But it ain't gonna happen for you, dawg.
00:47:49Trick.
00:47:53Does this look like the face of a desperate man?
00:47:59Good.
00:48:00Because I am desperate,
00:48:02and you're 1,000% right.
00:48:04Listen to what I'm saying.
00:48:06It took 17 years
00:48:10for me to become a champion
00:48:13in WWE.
00:48:16And after I got a taste,
00:48:19I became addicted.
00:48:21And I promise you,
00:48:23I will satiate that addiction this Sunday
00:48:27when I get back what's mine.
00:48:30Trick.
00:48:31We are about to play
00:48:33in the Devil's Playground.
00:48:39For the first time in your career,
00:48:41somebody's actually gonna make you
00:48:43walk through hell.
00:48:44And we're about to play
00:48:46by the Devil's Rules,
00:48:48also known as my rules.
00:48:53Well, I'm looking forward to it.
00:48:59It's going to be barbaric.
00:49:02Sadistic.
00:49:03Two men will enter the Devil's Playground.
00:49:06One walks out champion
00:49:08at Halloween Havoc.
00:49:13Stephanie and Julia talking a big game like that.
00:49:16It's a big game.
00:49:17It's a big game.
00:49:18It's a big game.
00:49:19Wait, what?
00:49:20Stephanie and Julia talking a big game
00:49:22like they're ready for Sunday?
00:49:24It's one thing to be a big deal everywhere else,
00:49:26and it's another to be a big deal
00:49:28here in NXT like us.
00:49:30The two hottest free agents of 2024
00:49:32have zero chance against the two pillars
00:49:34of the NXT Women's Division.
00:49:36And if I actually liked them,
00:49:37maybe I would carry them.
00:49:38But you don't.
00:49:39You don't.
00:49:40In fact, no one does.
00:49:42Julia and Stephanie don't deserve to be here,
00:49:44just like Kalani doesn't deserve to be champion.
00:49:47Exactly why we'll be taking care of Kalani on Sunday
00:49:49while you two take care of Stephanie and Julia.
00:49:52Well, I mean what's left of them.
00:49:55Look, all these girls can come and go,
00:49:57but we've been the backbone of this Women's Division.
00:50:00Exactly.
00:50:01Roxy, I agree with you.
00:50:03You guys have controlled the division
00:50:04for the past three years,
00:50:06but y'all are nervous
00:50:07because you can feel it slipping
00:50:09through your little fingers.
00:50:10But anyways,
00:50:11which one of you guys do I have on Sunday?
00:50:13Tell me.
00:50:14Aw, isn't that cute?
00:50:15One day you'll learn
00:50:16that when you have control,
00:50:17you don't just give it up.
00:50:18You'll find out on Sunday.
00:50:20But tonight,
00:50:21the wheel will determine
00:50:22what the match is gonna be.
00:50:32The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:50:36And choosing first,
00:50:37from Honolulu, Hawaii,
00:50:39Sol Ruka!
00:50:43After a misunderstanding of sorts earlier tonight,
00:50:46Sol Ruka goes one-on-one
00:50:48with Carmen Petrovic next.
00:50:53Welcome back live to NXT.
00:51:01Petrovic just seeing that it's
00:51:03not to Adonis' as a new friend.
00:51:07And her opponent,
00:51:08from Toronto, Ontario, Canada,
00:51:11Carmen Petrovic!
00:51:14What demonic laugh was that?
00:51:16You sounded like Mr. Burns.
00:51:20You think it's funny that Adonis...
00:51:21No, Adonis, man,
00:51:22you got that hot, hot honey with it, man.
00:51:26You know, that right there,
00:51:27it can make things a little bit touchy
00:51:31with the ladies, you know what I'm saying?
00:51:33You got me lost.
00:51:34I was just ready to talk about
00:51:35how smooth you were transitioning
00:51:36from your singing a page to trick,
00:51:38and then you come out
00:51:39with that laugh of whatever.
00:51:41Trying to refocus on this matchup.
00:51:43You know, the question for Sol Ruka is,
00:51:45can't she continue to ride
00:51:46that wave of momentum?
00:51:48These two were a little bit emotional earlier.
00:51:51Can't she ride that emotion?
00:51:52No, no, she's an extraordinary talent.
00:51:54She's prolific inside that first circle.
00:51:56And she's just looking for that moment
00:51:58to break out tonight.
00:51:59I don't know.
00:52:00I don't know with Carmen Petrovic,
00:52:01this is a different Petrovic.
00:52:03I want to go back to earlier.
00:52:04Is Sol on to something?
00:52:06I mean, honestly,
00:52:07all joking aside about your laugh,
00:52:08is there something going on?
00:52:10Of course she's on to something.
00:52:11Is there an interest?
00:52:12Of course there is.
00:52:13Are you kidding me?
00:52:14Are you kidding me?
00:52:15Have you ever heard of pheromones?
00:52:17They're all over the place, man.
00:52:20Trust me.
00:52:22Well, Carmen Petrovic right now
00:52:24controlling Sol Ruka,
00:52:25controlling this matchup,
00:52:27and you got to wonder
00:52:28what sort of distraction...
00:52:29Oh!
00:52:30There's that athleticism from Sol Ruka
00:52:32still to come, by the way.
00:52:33Julia Estefani-McCarran teaming up
00:52:35for the first time ever.
00:52:36They will face Cora Jane,
00:52:37NXT Women's Champion,
00:52:39Roxanne Perez Sunday,
00:52:40and Halloween Havoc.
00:52:41You have to imagine
00:52:42someone like Sol Ruka
00:52:43wants her name in that
00:52:45number one contender's conversation
00:52:48for the NXT Women's Championship.
00:52:49Oh, yeah.
00:52:50She wants her name in that
00:52:51number one contender's spot.
00:52:52She's had her said, I think,
00:52:53but right now Sol Ruka
00:52:55is definitely trying to step up.
00:52:58Petrovic turning things around
00:52:59in this matchup.
00:53:01Called herself a...
00:53:02That's not going to work.
00:53:04A cold-blooded Canadian
00:53:06who seems to be
00:53:07a little bit more on edge,
00:53:08and maybe you can see why,
00:53:09because Sol Ruka in control,
00:53:11and why I mentioned maybe
00:53:12riding the wave of momentum,
00:53:14literally riding the wave
00:53:16here tonight on the scene.
00:53:17Surfboard, Vic!
00:53:18Surfboard!
00:53:19Oh!
00:53:20Super kick under the jaw,
00:53:22into the cover,
00:53:23center of the ring,
00:53:24and a near fall.
00:53:26I mean, you know what?
00:53:27You said this earlier,
00:53:28and I want to get back to this,
00:53:29because they did have
00:53:30an interaction earlier tonight
00:53:31in the locker room.
00:53:33Is this a standard case
00:53:34of maybe Sol Ruka not minding?
00:53:35Wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:53:36Did you see that?
00:53:37Did you see that?
00:53:38Yeah, I did.
00:53:39Petrovic is realizing
00:53:40that Asante, the Adonis,
00:53:42is here getting a close-up look,
00:53:44kick out with a new...
00:53:45She's not focused, Vic.
00:53:46She's not focused.
00:53:47You got the bug, man.
00:53:49She's been bit by the bite
00:53:51of Adonis, man.
00:53:53So you agree.
00:53:54You saw the same look
00:53:55shared between Adonis and Petrovic.
00:53:56Oh, come on, man.
00:53:57You can see it, man.
00:53:58You can smell it in the air, man.
00:54:00There's something happening here
00:54:02with Petrovic,
00:54:03and right now,
00:54:04she needs to turn it on.
00:54:05Maybe that's that one thing
00:54:07that she needs, Vic.
00:54:08Well, Petrovic did have
00:54:09reasoning for last week,
00:54:11destroying the Rose,
00:54:12calling it an eye for an eye,
00:54:14which would cost Adonis a match
00:54:15after Adonis cost a match
00:54:17between Petrovic and Reese.
00:54:18And to be fair,
00:54:19Adonis did apologize last week.
00:54:21Into the cover, though.
00:54:22Off the kick
00:54:23and another near fall.
00:54:25And by the way, Brittany Reese
00:54:26just seems to be frustrated
00:54:27by this entire situation.
00:54:30I just look up, Book.
00:54:31I'm trying to get
00:54:32a good look right now.
00:54:33I mean, I'm even distracted
00:54:34by Adonis up there.
00:54:35What, about five rows up?
00:54:37You know, the thing is, Adonis...
00:54:39I don't think he's taking
00:54:40his eyes off his friend.
00:54:41He's not doing anything.
00:54:42He's minding his own business, Vic.
00:54:44He's here with a friend,
00:54:45a friend, Vic.
00:54:47All right, that's what
00:54:48you want to call it.
00:54:49I see what your defense is
00:54:50as Sol Ruka flies through the air,
00:54:52and this is what Sol Ruka
00:54:53has done since she arrived.
00:54:54When's the last time
00:54:55you went out with a friend?
00:54:56When was the last time?
00:54:57I've been happily married
00:54:58for two years, honestly.
00:54:59I only go out
00:55:00with one woman,
00:55:01and I don't really hang out
00:55:02with my friends,
00:55:03except for my wife
00:55:04and my best friend
00:55:05is on SmackDown
00:55:06on Friday nights.
00:55:07It seems like you're
00:55:08trying to hide something.
00:55:09You know, you making up
00:55:10too many excuses here.
00:55:11Those are facts.
00:55:12A big kick from Sol Ruka.
00:55:13The fact could be,
00:55:14Sol Ruka could be closing
00:55:15on a big victory here tonight,
00:55:17but just got turned around
00:55:19by Carmen Petrovich.
00:55:22And Petrovich now
00:55:24looking to slice through.
00:55:26Oh, see there.
00:55:27Can't stay focused, though, Vic.
00:55:28She's...
00:55:29See there?
00:55:30You see that?
00:55:31And Adonis is...
00:55:34You're 100% right, Brooke.
00:55:36And she took her out
00:55:37off the ball
00:55:38and just got her soul
00:55:40snatched by Sol Ruka.
00:55:43Ding!
00:55:44Here is your winner,
00:55:48Sol Ruka!
00:55:51Soul snatches another soul.
00:55:54You gotta wonder,
00:55:55did Adonis just break
00:55:57another heart?
00:56:00How do you...
00:56:01And I can only imagine
00:56:02how great it must have felt
00:56:03being back in the ring
00:56:04and catching the dub.
00:56:05Come on, girl,
00:56:06you're killing it, too.
00:56:07Thank you so much.
00:56:08Look, the lioness is back
00:56:09and I'm on the prowl.
00:56:10And best believe
00:56:11that after all that
00:56:12I've been through,
00:56:13I'm always gonna pounce first.
00:56:15But my question is,
00:56:16where have you guys been?
00:56:17Hey, we was just
00:56:18waiting on our moment.
00:56:19We've been in the gym grinding.
00:56:20Come on.
00:56:21And I promise you,
00:56:22when our moment comes,
00:56:23we will be ready.
00:56:24Hold on, though.
00:56:25Hold on, though.
00:56:26That's the thing, Tyson.
00:56:27You don't know
00:56:28when that moment's gonna come.
00:56:29That's true.
00:56:30You gotta be aggressive.
00:56:31Not tomorrow.
00:56:32Today.
00:56:33Tyreek, take it from someone
00:56:34who's been blindsided.
00:56:36Nobody's gonna give you
00:56:37an opportunity.
00:56:38You gotta just take it.
00:56:40You drop this.
00:56:44No.
00:56:47Hmm.
00:56:49Anyway...
00:56:50Well, it's good to see
00:56:51Nikita Lyons last week,
00:56:52but take a look
00:56:54at Hank
00:56:55and Tank.
00:56:56Cole Custer
00:56:57firing up the engine
00:56:58of Hank and Tank

00:57:01Let's go, baby!
00:57:03What I'm saying,
00:57:04she's got some people.
00:57:05There's been a lot of interaction
00:57:06on social media tonight,
00:57:08including The Eradicator,
00:57:10who took the X
00:57:11from one powerhouse
00:57:12to another.
00:57:14Quite the welcome
00:57:15from Rhea Ripley.
00:57:21The following contest
00:57:23is a Tag Team Match
00:57:24scheduled for one fall.
00:57:26Introducing first,

00:57:29at a combined weight
00:57:30of 545 pounds,
00:57:32Lucian Price
00:57:33and Bronco Nema.
00:57:35O-T-M!
00:57:38And it was a rude welcoming
00:57:40from these two
00:57:41to our special guest
00:57:42that's here tonight
00:57:43with Hank and Tank.
00:57:46And their opponents,

00:57:59Oh, and O-T-M quickly
00:58:01to the outside,
00:58:02and this started
00:58:03way earlier today,
00:58:04outside the Performance Center.
00:58:07It's carrying over
00:58:08into the here
00:58:09and to the now.
00:58:10I don't even think
00:58:11this matchup officially
00:58:12has begun,
00:58:13and Hank and Tank
00:58:14are taking it to O-T-M.
00:58:16It's not a wrestling match
00:58:17right now, Tate.
00:58:18This is a fight.
00:58:19Oh, Cole Custer's
00:58:20excited on the outside.
00:58:21A fight just broke out.
00:58:23Hank and Tank,
00:58:24I mean,
00:58:25a follow-up,
00:58:26and finally the bell
00:58:27has sounded.
00:58:28I mean, it's Cole Custer
00:58:29going to get in
00:58:30on the action or what?
00:58:31I mean, he's dressed
00:58:32for the occasion.
00:58:33What do you mean
00:58:34he's dressed for the occasion?
00:58:35That's the rarest
00:58:36of the double-zero
00:58:37NXT cars.
00:58:38That's exactly what
00:58:39I'm talking about.
00:58:40That's exactly what
00:58:41he's ready for first.
00:58:42Meeting in the middle,
00:58:43Hank and Tank,
00:58:44and look, O-T-M
00:58:45was flat-out rude
00:58:46earlier today
00:58:47as Lucian Price
00:58:48able to get out
00:58:49to Cole Custer.
00:58:50Custer last year

00:59:41man.
00:59:42I'm looking at

00:59:56to keep their eye
00:59:57on all the tag teams
00:59:58here in NXT.
00:59:59That's a two-time
01:00:00NXT tag team
01:00:01champion.
01:00:02They're called

01:00:05and double trouble,
01:00:06man.
01:00:07Tank was trying
01:00:08to reach out

01:00:20to finally give
01:00:21these guys
01:00:22the credit
01:00:23for their journey?
01:00:24I'm not a fan.
01:00:25I'm not a fan,
01:00:26but I must say
01:00:27that I'm beginning
01:00:28to grow on me
01:00:29just a bit.
01:00:30To get to this point,
01:00:31Tank, of course,

01:00:37almost wiped out Booker.

01:02:53Hey, I'm not sure
01:02:54what that was about,
01:02:55but I really need your help.
01:02:56I need a corner man
01:02:57for my Heritage Cup
01:02:58match next week,
01:02:59but everyone I've asked
01:03:00has said no,
01:03:01and it's like they don't
01:03:02trust me or something.
01:03:03Mm, no one
01:03:04trusts the king.
01:03:05Yeah, I'm really
01:03:06struggling with it.
01:03:07Can you just, like,
01:03:08appoint someone
01:03:09to be my corner man
01:03:10for this match?
01:03:11You can't force anyone
01:03:12to be in your corner.
01:03:14Nobody trusts me
01:03:15because they think
01:03:16I'm just like him.
01:03:17You wouldn't get it.
01:03:18Everybody loves you guys,
01:03:19so I'll stop
01:03:20wasting your time.
