00:00:00And we are live in the entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas, which is in the center of the wrestling world, hosting a record-breaking two-night Wrestlemania, and tonight, our superstars will stand and deliver once more.
00:00:14Welcome to NXT on The CW, presented by Progressive.
00:00:19And we are live inside the Fountain Blues Theater, and we are set for our first championship match of the night.
00:00:49The following contest, scheduled for one fall, is for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship!
00:01:01Introducing first, they are the new WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan!
00:01:13We are set for this tag team matchup in just a moment.
00:01:17We want to welcome you in ringside, Vic Joseph alongside Corey Graves to my left, and of course, two times, that'll be Hall of Famer, Booker T.
00:01:24Booker, the last time we were in here, you were asleep!
00:01:28What are you talking about? I was praying.
00:01:29Right there, your eyes were filled.
00:01:31I was praying.
00:01:32Well, how was your WrestleMania weekend once you woke up?
00:01:35It was gone.
00:01:39Well, we are set to kick things off here tonight.
00:01:44NXT set the tone for WrestleMania weekend this past Saturday.
00:01:48Tonight, we bring it all home.
00:01:53And their opponents, the team of Tatum Patrick and Chi-Chi Dolan!
00:02:04Let's go back and see how the challengers earned this opportunity.
00:02:08And he was back on the countdown to stand and deliver in a four-way elimination tag team matchup.
00:02:15Unique offense gives this two a golden opportunity here tonight.
00:02:20There is that cemetery driver which sealed the deal and the fate of fatal influence.
00:02:27And tonight, if that happens again, Graves, we could see ourselves new WWE Women's Tag Team Champion.
00:02:34But no doubt for that duo, this is the biggest test in their career.
00:02:38Because that duo is about to challenge arguably the greatest women's tag team in WWE history.
00:02:44We're talking four-time tag team champions.
00:02:47That's right.
00:02:47And Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez.
00:02:49They're currently on their fourth reign.
00:02:52Raquel is in her record of fifth reign as champion.
00:02:58Titles, of course, change hands last night in the first matchup on Monday Night Raw.
00:03:02And on the topic of Raw, I'm hoping that Pat McAfee's okay, Graves.
00:03:05I mean, that was his one called for.
00:03:07Yeah, I saw Pat on his show earlier today.
00:03:09Luckily, he escaped without any severe injuries.
00:03:12My favorite part was watching Michael Cole's life flash before his eyes.
00:03:14But hopefully, he learned his lesson.
00:03:16You don't talk smack to the ring general.
00:03:18Yeah, yeah.
00:03:19You guys, I think, learned a lesson.
00:03:21All right?
00:03:24Well, tonight, we are kicking things off with one booming match presented by Xfinity.
00:03:30And what lesson is that there, Booker?
00:03:31You don't want to go messing around with Luther.
00:03:34I mean, you guys know your role.
00:03:36All right?
00:03:37Know your role and shut your damn mouth.
00:03:40That's what Pat McAfee learned.
00:03:41All right?
00:03:42The hard thing.
00:03:42Why are you yelling at us?
00:03:43Just.
00:03:44Just.
00:03:44Take some advice and don't say anything to anybody tonight.
00:03:47Because I'm not defending you.
00:03:48I'm not that good of a friend.
00:03:49I'm just saying.
00:03:50I'm just saying.
00:03:52I think Booker's got my back.
00:03:53But, Booker, let's get into this matchup here.
00:03:56Let's talk about the champions.
00:03:57I think they may be a little emotionally drained coming in this.
00:04:01And to that point, how can Gigi and Tatum take advantage?
00:04:03You know, losing the championship, coming back, you know, having to strategize and winning them back.
00:04:08Yeah, there is a toll that's going to be on the body.
00:04:11And definitely, there's a moment, a door that could be open that the competitors could slip in and take these championships.
00:04:18Look at this power.
00:04:19Oh, Regas.
00:04:21And Graves, how will this quick turnaround, though, hinder the champions here tonight?
00:04:24I mean, think about this, they lost the title Sunday, they won them back last night, and now they're defending them again here tonight?
00:04:29I don't see that being a problem for Liv and Raquel in any way, shape, or form.
00:04:33As a matter of fact, Liv told me she's dedicating this match to Daddy Dom, the new Intercontinental Champion.
00:04:39As we look yet again at the brute force that is Raquel Rodriguez.
00:04:43Well, Liv Morgan in this matchup, this is Liv's first match in NXT since 2017.
00:04:49She became a member of the Riot Squad and now truly has carved her own path of greatness into the cover.
00:04:55Hook of the leg and a kick out by Liv.
00:04:58And that path that she's on, Graves, you had firsthand sitting ringside watching her win women's championships, WrestleMania.
00:05:04Beautiful, beautiful.
00:05:05Liv Morgan is the real deal.
00:05:07She's the genuine article.
00:05:08And Liv has put her self-tag in hell to prove it to the WWE Universe.
00:05:13Now they're finally beginning to understand and accept how talented Liv truly is.
00:05:17Gigi checking in.
00:05:18Gigi going from behind.
00:05:19How is she going to take down Raquel?
00:05:21Because that power, once again, Booker, is on display.
00:05:25One thing about Raquel Rodriguez, I said it from day one.
00:05:28She's a force to be reckoned with right now.
00:05:30Gigi Dolan has an opportunity.
00:05:33Listen, if I were Gigi, I'd rely on a little bit of trickery.
00:05:37Gigi's been around the game for a long time.
00:05:39She's a veteran.
00:05:40She has a few tricks up her sleeve.
00:05:41That might be what it takes to get the better of Raquel Rodriguez.
00:05:44Oh, wait a minute.
00:05:45Look at this.
00:05:45Exactly what I'm talking about.
00:05:47There's that power.
00:05:48And for Gigi Dolan, she does know something about being a champion here in NXT.
00:05:53And another near fall.
00:05:55Gigi, of course, one of the greatest NXT women's tag team champions of all time.
00:05:59Let me tell you something.
00:05:59What the hell is this?
00:06:00Oh, my.
00:06:01Gigi Dolan and Liv Morgan, I think the one opportunity.
00:06:04Oh, from behind.
00:06:05One opportunity they're going to have is Rodriguez and Morgan is going to get a little bit overconfident
00:06:10in a matchup like this.
00:06:12Like I say, a window could open.
00:06:14Could have.
00:06:14This is the second time he does.
00:06:16Women's tag titles have been defended on NXT.
00:06:18But Liv Morgan just took advantage of the situation.
00:06:23We're just toying around right now with Gigi.
00:06:27Tatum answering right back.
00:06:29And now, here's some of that unique offense that you were talking about, Graves.
00:06:35The champions wiped out.
00:06:37The challengers standing tall.
00:06:38It's all about the WWE women's tag team champions.
00:06:42Which team's walking out of Vegas with the gold?
00:06:45NXT! NXT! NXT!
00:06:48Who will walk out of Las Vegas?
00:06:50We are live inside the Fountain Blue Theater.
00:06:53It has been all Raquel, all Liv Morgan.
00:06:56The challengers have not been able to get out of the gate.
00:06:59And Judgment Day, of course, riding high.
00:07:01Tag team titles.
00:07:02Intercontinental Championship.
00:07:03And Graves, the return of J.D. McDonough.
00:07:07Shocking turn of events.
00:07:09An incredible weekend for the Judgment Day.
00:07:10And right now, Raquel using all of her mass, all of her strength to just wear down Cato Paxman.
00:07:16This is normal.
00:07:18Wow.
00:07:19Got action in both boxes.
00:07:22Liv Morgan sending the opposition into the ring stairs.
00:07:25That was the turning point of the matchup, which really has led Liv Morgan and Raquel to have control of this match.
00:07:33And, you know, we talked about Liv Morgan.
00:07:34Let's talk about Raquel for a moment.
00:07:35Who just tagged out.
00:07:36She main defended the first ever stand and deliver.
00:07:38She held the women's title for over 200 days.
00:07:41Of course, the women's title to be defended in our main event here tonight.
00:07:46Look at this.
00:07:46A little love note to Daddy Dom.
00:07:48You gotta love it, man.
00:07:50Oh, baby.
00:07:51A little shuggy-duggy quack-quack moment.
00:07:53Of course I like Dirty Dom.
00:07:55What kind of ridiculous statement is that?
00:07:57I don't know.
00:07:57Some things he does, you know, is questionable.
00:07:59But into the cover.
00:07:59Hook up both legs for a second.
00:08:01And just able to kick out there was Tatum.
00:08:03What is questionable about being awesome at wrestling, having a smoking hot girlfriend,
00:08:07and having your name on the lips of the WWE Universe?
00:08:10I thought he was always rude to his father.
00:08:11But, you know, we don't have to go too far back in time as Raquel is back into the matchup.
00:08:15I mean, come on, man.
00:08:16And his dad is going to have a hell of a job.
00:08:18I mean, Eddie.
00:08:19Eddie is going to move on right here because this is going to go downhill real fast.
00:08:24And right now, the championship aspirations are also going downhill for the challengers.
00:08:30Tatum able to knee herself out of that predicament.
00:08:32But, oh, look at these.
00:08:34Just fiery rice.
00:08:35Too much power, man.
00:08:36Too much power.
00:08:37Watch out, she's going on.
00:08:39I keep on going on.
00:08:41Oh, you hear that?
00:08:43You hear that?
00:08:44Oh, yeah.
00:08:45It's about to get saucy up here.
00:08:47Oh, yes.
00:08:48Oh!
00:08:50DDT.
00:08:51Big counter.
00:08:52And right now, Tatum has to make the tag.
00:08:54That may have been the overconfidence you mentioned earlier, Brooke.
00:08:57Perhaps Raquel took her eye off the ball for just a second.
00:08:59And Paxley made her pay.
00:09:01Gigi desperately wanting to get back into this matchup.
00:09:04Reaching out so close to the tag.
00:09:06Raquel, as you can see, reaching out.
00:09:08Here we go.
00:09:10Here we go.
00:09:11Fresh competitors on both sides.
00:09:13And Gigi Dolan is rocking and rolling all over.
00:09:16Big kick.
00:09:18And again, this is the first of two championship matches.
00:09:22She may be out right now, guys.
00:09:24Off the STO, getting right back up.
00:09:26Looking for him.
00:09:26Oh, yes.
00:09:27That's it.
00:09:28Shoulders down.
00:09:30Wow.
00:09:31That's what we're going to need to see more of.
00:09:33Keep the hammer down.
00:09:34From Gigi Dolan.
00:09:35Keep the hammer down.
00:09:36Tag made back to Tatum Paxley.
00:09:39Question that decision.
00:09:40Paxley still feeling the effects of the assault she suffered from Rodriguez.
00:09:44Oh.
00:09:45Almost a meeting of the minds.
00:09:46But a tag was made.
00:09:47Raquel.
00:09:47Legal.
00:09:48And I don't think the challengers know.
00:09:50They certainly do now.
00:09:51Oh.
00:09:52Big double clothesline by Rodriguez.
00:09:54And hoisting up Paxley.
00:09:56Could this be?
00:09:57Certainly has been a hell of a 72 hours for the champions.
00:10:02Nice counter.
00:10:03Challenges.
00:10:04Wait a minute.
00:10:04Shoulders down.
00:10:05Oh.
00:10:06Another near fall.
00:10:07What a way to kick off NXT this Tuesday on the CW.
00:10:10That made from the outside.
00:10:12Gigi Dolan is going to be legal for her team.
00:10:13But here comes a Tejana bomb.
00:10:16Yeah.
00:10:16But it's to the.
00:10:17The illegal competitor.
00:10:19Yeah.
00:10:19I don't think Raquel realizes it.
00:10:21And Gigi right now looking to fly.
00:10:23Talked about that trickery.
00:10:25Could this be it?
00:10:26You hit it on the head.
00:10:27And now Tatum Paxley.
00:10:28Go Tatum!
00:10:29Look it up.
00:10:30Referee.
00:10:31Target acquired.
00:10:32Paxley from the top.
00:10:34For 50.
00:10:35For 50.
00:10:35Gigi into the cover.
00:10:37That's it guys.
00:10:37Is on the line.
00:10:38And live.
00:10:39Morgan.
00:10:39Give credit to the devil when it's due.
00:10:43Able to save things.
00:10:44But that step up in Ciguri.
00:10:45Rocking Morgan to the outside.
00:10:47Tatum Paxley has so much ability.
00:10:49I mean if they could just pull this thing together.
00:10:50They could walk out the new tag team champion here tonight.
00:10:54Moment has not been too big for the challengers.
00:10:56Who earned this opportunity this past Saturday.
00:10:59Stereo enzigueres from the challengers.
00:11:01Here comes Paxley once again.
00:11:02Picking up speed.
00:11:04Going up.
00:11:04Going around.
00:11:05Got caught.
00:11:05Bouncing right back off.
00:11:06And another tag was made.
00:11:08And I don't think Raquel noticed that.
00:11:10I mean this is great.
00:11:11I don't even want to say it's trickery.
00:11:12It's strategy by the challengers.
00:11:14Double headbutt.
00:11:15But a tag was made.
00:11:16Liv Morgan is now legal.
00:11:17The challengers believe it's Raquel.
00:11:19I think turnabout may be fair play.
00:11:21Here comes.
00:11:22They're looking for the cemetery driver.
00:11:25But a code breaker.
00:11:26And now Raquel.
00:11:28Got caught.
00:11:28Got caught.
00:11:29Got caught.
00:11:29You can say that again.
00:11:30Bouncing right back.
00:11:32Gigi's wiped out.
00:11:33She's legal.
00:11:34So's Liv.
00:11:35And there is the oblivion.
00:11:37Center of the ring.
00:11:39Into the cover.
00:11:40And the champion survives.
00:11:45Here are your winners and still.
00:11:48The WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
00:11:53The fourth.
00:11:54And Raquel Rodriguez.
00:11:57Yes.
00:11:57Brave Hewitt mentioned trickery.
00:11:59That trickery was almost the strategy.
00:12:02And it almost, almost paid off for the challenge.
00:12:05We know almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.
00:12:09Unfortunately for Gigi and Tatum.
00:12:11Almost was as far as they got.
00:12:13A beautiful STO from Gigi Dolan followed immediately by a bridging half and a half suplex.
00:12:20Incredible effort by the challengers.
00:12:22But Morgan and Rodriguez were just on top of their game.
00:12:26And not only that, that oblivion right there nailed it.
00:12:30That was incredible.
00:12:31I did not see that one coming.
00:12:33Another big win.
00:12:34Guys, it seems like when Xfinity sponsors a match, it's booming.
00:12:38And I'm not just talking about the Xfinity Wi-Fi.
00:12:42What a retention for the four-time WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
00:12:48And as the Women's Tag Team Champions hold their gold,
00:12:52Lexus King has been trying to find his championship.
00:12:58Wow.
00:12:58Just amazing.
00:13:00I think you guys are just so great at this magic thing.
00:13:02Oh, thank you.
00:13:03You made the cup disappear, so why don't you bring it back?
00:13:06Because the King, I kind of need my Heritage Cup.
00:13:08Do you need it?
00:13:09Yeah, we'll bring it back, but we have a couple conditions there.
00:13:13First of all, you have to admit that we can't do magic.
00:13:16And people apologize.
00:13:18Obviously, that's the case.
00:13:19That's the case.
00:13:20I'm so sorry.
00:13:21Magic is clearly very, very real.
00:13:23Good.
00:13:24You took the cup away.
00:13:25You brought this thing back.
00:13:26But you...
00:13:27Let's do the reverse.
00:13:27You didn't let me finish.
00:13:29You also have to defend it tonight.
00:13:32Oh, my dude, come on.
00:13:34You do.
00:13:34I've been in Vegas all weekend.
00:13:36I know.
00:13:36I've been dieting.
00:13:37I've been training.
00:13:37I've been doing Vegas things.
00:13:39That's the deal.
00:13:39I can't wrestle.
00:13:40You have to defend it or you don't get it back.
00:13:42It's as simple as that.
00:13:44Deal?
00:13:46Deal.
00:13:47Okay.
00:13:49We'll bring it back.
00:13:54Now, once again, you know the deal.
00:13:56You have to admit that we are magic.
00:13:58Look in the camera.
00:13:59Say we are magic.
00:14:00They are magic, and magic is real.
00:14:02Okay.
00:14:03And you have to defend it tonight.
00:14:06Cool.
00:14:06You ready for that?
00:14:07I guess.
00:14:08Okay.
00:14:09Then we can show you your trophy.
00:14:12Ah.
00:14:13What?
00:14:14Okay.
00:14:15You ready for it?
00:14:16There she is.
00:14:16My baby.
00:14:18Awesome.
00:14:19Remember.
00:14:20So glad to have it.
00:14:20You're defending it tonight.
00:14:22Against who?
00:14:23Oh, that'll be a surprise.
00:14:27Well, guys, it looks like we have our third championship match of the night.
00:14:32What a surprise that is.
00:14:34Who will it be?
00:14:34We'll all find out later on, live on NXT.
00:14:39But on the topic of championships, there is the North American champion.
00:14:44Ricky Sanks is here.
00:14:46We'll hear from him live next on NXT.
00:14:49And we've been in Las Vegas for the last few days, and over WrestleMania weekend, our
00:15:01NXT superstars stepped out of the box, competing at Bloodsport.
00:15:05You see NQCC's Charlie Dempsey, KVI Heights, showing their different side of themselves when
00:15:12they were getting in and grappling with some of the best from around the world, honing their
00:15:17skills, showing a more aggressive Killer Instinct side.
00:15:21One asked a question, will they bring some of that over here to NXT?
00:15:26Buzz, how about you at Bloodsport?
00:15:28I don't know.
00:15:29They didn't ask.
00:15:31What about you?
00:15:32Well, actually, you can't handle no Bloodsport, fool.
00:15:35You ain't no real shooter like Tavion.
00:15:37And your teammates know it, too.
00:15:38That's not true.
00:15:39Boys, I think it'd be best if the NQCC just went their separate ways now, before we got
00:15:45to break them apart, like we did the D'Angelo's.
00:15:50Well, how about when my crew gets back, we'll give you guys a run for your money.
00:15:54Oh, is that right?
00:15:55Well, after Saturday, I'm ready for a fight, so what's up?
00:15:59Man, how many times do we got to beat you down for you to learn?
00:16:02You win this by yourself.
00:16:03You ain't got no backup.
00:16:04Whoa.

00:16:23We do.
00:16:28This is the revolution.
00:16:29Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the NXT North American Champion, Ricky C.
00:16:58It craves the revolution.
00:17:03Ricky Saints made everyone take notice Saturday.
00:17:06It's one thing to win a championship, another entirely to successfully defend it, let alone
00:17:12on the biggest stage.
00:17:13NXT has the offer.
00:17:14That's exactly what Ricky Saints did Saturday at Stand and Deliver, retaining the North American
00:17:21gold.
00:17:22And coming out here tonight, looking like a couple million bucks.
00:17:26Booker, you ought to get yourself a shirt like that.
00:17:27What?
00:17:28A couple of billions?
00:17:30Yeah.
00:17:31Are you thinking a billion?
00:17:32Are we looking at the same outfit?
00:17:36You're on your own here, Graves.
00:17:37I'm just saying, I like the kid.
00:17:39I like the kid.
00:17:40I could move on.
00:17:41But come on, bro.
00:17:42Pull it back just a little bit.
00:17:44One million, maybe.
00:17:46Eight million.
00:17:46A singular million.
00:17:50Wow.
00:17:51Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy, Randy.
00:17:59And he loves you back, baby.
00:18:04You know, going off of that, I kicked off WrestleMania weekend with a bang when I successfully defended
00:18:10the north american championship against a man who is forever going to be a thorn in my side and that
00:18:20is you our ego ethan page yeah my mom agrees as well but the world watched this week when we had
00:18:34a historic two night of wrestlemania but it was that stand to deliver that i made good on my
00:18:40promise that i said since i stepped foot here at nxt everything that i've said i've turned into
00:18:46reality i am the man around here as you can tell
00:18:50and man stand and deliver was surreal but it felt so good to do it against you ethan page my way my life
00:19:10now now ricky ricky ricky hold your horses brother look i know you just had a historic win
00:19:31at stand and deliver but i've been spending my whole weekend running all over las vegas
00:19:39looking for my precious heritage cup all because those clowns penn and teller made it disappear
00:19:45right before my very eyes okay hey good for you lexus but i have no clue what this has to do with
00:19:53me i'm out here simply putting on a show uh i i just i'm just confused about why you're out here
00:20:00right now well you know ricky i've actually got business out here so before you try and cut me off
00:20:05and take up my ring time i'm defending my heritage cup tonight and uh if you don't get up out of here
00:20:12i might set my sights on that north american title as well
00:20:16oh we're doing this again that's so funny because last week you lost the four-way so you
00:20:24don't have a shot at that it seems to me that your mouth keeps writing checks that your little ass can't
00:20:30cash partner you know what i love i love a lot of things ricky but i don't love smug arrogant pricks
00:20:38like you who think they can get over with this gullible audience newsflash brother nobody likes you
00:20:46they love the king okay you're a legend in your own mind delusions of grandeur fill your brain
00:20:54and if you're so confident ricky why don't you give me what i want then why don't you put that
00:21:03north american title on the line next week against me and no no no i don't mean three or four other
00:21:10guys i don't mean a little four-way to stack the odds against me i've had enough of that here in vegas
00:21:15okay so how about it you and me you know what i'll even put my cup on the line against you
00:21:23and we'll make it a double champion match ricky saints versus lexus king cup versus title one fall
00:21:32winner takes all i'm gonna put it to you like this you are a very special individual oh my god
00:21:40the fact that you're even worried about me right now when you have a mystery opponent is uh very
00:21:45telling and since i already know that you went and talked to ava about all this guess what you're on
00:21:50what could happen if king can retain his cup but who's he facing who's the mystery opponent
00:22:05we're gonna find out live back on nxt for you
00:22:11i mean look at us new champs who would have thought you gave me that i don't really know
00:22:17what to wear the shoulder doesn't feel right but i think i can make the thigh
00:22:19i don't know tradition now
00:22:22oh congrats you guys congrats soul if it was gonna be anyone other than me winning that ladder match
00:22:29it was you but i want to do another one it was so okay people climbing the ladder bodies flying
00:22:34everyone you statching souls girl please just after the night that i had the last thing i need
00:22:42is your energy i did not miss you and your annoying self for the last six months go somewhere
00:22:48yeah i actually agree the you're gonna learn real quick because it's in the same locker room
00:22:53you left a few months ago wow i didn't think my life could get any worse but then you showed
00:23:00backup you need to put her in her place once and for all well not my problem you want something
00:23:06done then you can do it yourself let's go
00:23:09oh you never could so i guess i will
00:23:14a little hostility going on a little earlier today between fatal influence but let's try to
00:23:24focus on the here and the now because there is lexus king ready to defend his cup
00:23:28but against who send them out i don't care who it is
00:23:33the following contest scheduled for one fall
00:23:58is for the nxt parentage club championship
00:24:03making his way to the ring from air scotland winged at 175 supernova 11 no end
00:24:16nxt universe standing look who penn and keller pulled out of a hat it's a supernova surprise
00:24:26here on nxt he's back oh yes man i mean
00:24:31lexus king's all smiles right now but look you can add up all the others
00:24:37you can add up all the others that have held the prestigious cup and it wouldn't equal
00:24:50the days that dar is held at booker 790 days
00:24:55noam dar the greatest heritage cup champion in the history of the cup man give him his props and he's
00:25:02back i just did noam dar may 20 24 he was attacked he was sidelined by ethan page cover come on the line
00:25:09and a kick out but look corey has been sitting back watching nxt
00:25:13watching the changes made to what he once held and what he once down it's been 11 months it's a whole different world than when we last saw noam dar
00:25:22this may be the first time you're seeing noam dar this is a this is an athlete who is as violent as he is flamboyant
00:25:28oh beautiful case in point it's all about precision over speed timing over power
00:25:34oh yeah dar using that tie boxing background oh my goodness drop kick right in the grill
00:25:41and to the cover cup is on the line and a kick out now look when noam dar was champion
00:25:46there were rounds there was how many decisions that you had to have in right now
00:25:52a little lick of the wrist and oh he's trying to rub he's trying to rub his beard off
00:26:01oh that's good that's wrong look that's noam dar is a wisecracking individual but right now he is
00:26:07taking it to lexus king crucifix shoulders down cup on the line as i was saying booker the heritage cup
00:26:13when dar was champion was defended in rounds there was strategy to it there was a time limit there was a
00:26:18arrest period lexus king has done away with all of that how do you think and what do you think dar
00:26:23makes of those in this business in this business let's say time off perhaps noam dar is going to need
00:26:30hold hold on cover so i'm talking they need those extra rounds to actually get back into the into the
00:26:36frame right now he's looking good but right now he's in a little trouble at the same time take another look at
00:26:41lexus king striking from behind flattening supernova 11 look at that and the current heritage cup
00:26:47champion keying off on noam dar see that's the star of all television right there he he landed he
00:26:54landed those hard shots when the referee was behind him great great strategy back by the by the star of
00:27:00all television well you know amdar returning here tonight and he is known also you talk about
00:27:05if we're just seeing him for the first time for he's known for having a high fighter iq yeah you're
00:27:10absolutely right about that if we look at lexus king delivering some style kicks but there it is on
00:27:15display and dar now turning right back around but oh dar's also a master at the mental aspect of
00:27:24wrestling the guy's a master antagonist he gets under your opponent's skin very similar to how we always
00:27:29talk about all ego ethan page getting your opponent frustrated in the middle of a fight is an art in
00:27:34and of itself that was ethan page who attacked noam dar and cost him nearly one year of his career but
00:27:40for lexus king not only fighting to retain his cup he's also fighting possibly next week cup versus
00:27:45title the north american title he just challenged ricky saints but right now he's looking to retain super
00:27:51kick under the jaw into the cover and dar getting that left shoulder up i can see it in dar's face right
00:27:58there this is not the same noam dar when he when he left i mean his his his cardio is definitely not
00:28:04there tonight i can i can see it in his body words right out of my mouth book there's nothing like
00:28:09being in ring shape no treadmill can prepare you for this nobody home for the swanton king trying to get
00:28:15back to his feet noam dar is up dark coming right in big back fist fouled by another trying to get some
00:28:22combination offense but now dar taking a step back let me tell you right now dar's would have to land
00:28:28a big shot if he wanted to walk out of here and the new champion for the for the cover could that be it
00:28:34a big shot if he wanted to walk out of here and the new nxt heritage cup champion
00:28:48noam dar did indeed do it he feigned the highway the nova roller and instead connecting with a hell of an elbow
00:29:02let's call it a elbow booker and new a supernova surprise dar now a four-time heritage cup champion

00:36:17ova femi
00:36:22graves you said it's saturday and it rang true nxt set the tone for wrestlemania weekend
00:36:30and that's the man who survived the main event ova femi managed to conquer las vegas but what a
00:36:36main event we witnessed unfold at stand and deliver if you haven't seen it go out of your way to track it
00:36:43down ova femi trick williams javon evans did what many say stole the entire wrestlemania weekend in that matchup
00:36:52what is on the mind of the ruler
00:37:02at stand and deliver i did exactly what i said i was going to do
00:37:11trick williams and javon evans had all these dreams and aspirations about dethroning the ruler
00:37:17and becoming the nxt champion at stand and deliver not on my watch you know what i did i took their dreams
00:37:25i set it ablaze and i bumped it to ashes and i told them to wake up
00:37:37i will say
00:37:50i will say during the build-up to this match i said a lot of things about javon evans
00:37:57i called him a child i said he wasn't ready i said he couldn't hang and i called him immature
00:38:06regretfully so because the young og is a lot better than i thought he was
00:38:14and although his time has not come his best years are definitely ahead of him
00:38:20so shout out to the young og
00:38:34as for trick williams i have no love for williams
00:38:39cannot stand him but i will say as good as he is as great as he is the ruler is just that much better
00:38:50you know i ain't even going out like that right there oba
00:39:10because every single time it comes to me getting what's mine
00:39:13oba you always find the easy way out and on saturday you only won because you pinned javon

00:48:23bit started knocking out cables and a lot of technology back there
00:48:28so following context is a tag team match that goes four one four making his victory
00:48:35the green trail north carolina weight 180 pounds javon evans i didn't want to take away from javon evans

00:49:53to think about it they're gonna pick any two men that they want to compete in any match or they're not
00:49:58really gonna let any of us know until it's time it's gonna make the opposition have a heck of a
00:50:03time preparing for any sort of combat scenario it looks like we're gonna get dion lennox and osiris
00:50:09griffin two absolute units powerhouse human beings well this one is underway and yeah you are
00:50:17correct for the two that will be competing here for dark state and on the other side you've got miles
00:50:22born who is not ordinarily a tag team with javon evans correct and it was javon evans who earlier
00:50:28tonight decided to step up wanted to fight born wanted to fight alongside him after what dark
00:50:32state said even though no catch crew nowhere to be found born and land on his spear with d on it and
00:50:39let's go back to evans who's tagging in graves you were still singing his praises of the young og after
00:50:44saying i'm not alone in that one the whole wwe universe took notice of what the young og is
00:50:49capable of i think we're all excited for the future look talk to me about how it can be that even in
00:50:55defeat you'll come out better on the other side i mean sometimes uh your losses are better than you
00:50:59wins you get that that knowledge that's good that next man understanding exactly what you need to do
00:51:05to win but booker in the case of this match-up should evans maybe have uh his own business
00:51:16he's got a chip on his shoulder you got to pick your battles man you don't want to run into a fight
00:51:22with this dark state well look at evans right now trying to fire away said he was ready for a fight
00:51:27and now just some short jabs right now to griffin who just able to shove evans oh my goodness
00:51:33and remember the injured jaw from earlier this year that might re-dislocate it and knocked evans
00:51:39teeth clean out of his skull super kick connects and stops the oh baby big drop kicking right now
00:51:45lennox trying to get nice drop kick thrown by miles born drop kicks aplenty here on nxt physically
00:51:52intimidating as dark state has been thus far they still are relative newcomers to this business there's a
00:51:57a lot that they have yet to learn they've been able to overcompensate with raw power griffin just
00:52:06caught another human being another grown-ass man but watch out
00:52:15miles born coming to the aid of javon evans
00:52:20that's one way to turn this a match around but no quarter catch crew has made their way out who's
00:52:25walking out winners good dark state in control for the moment javon evans trying to fight his way
00:52:32toward mile born you see that shot dang just one big shot put him down evan trying to get back to
00:52:39his feet he's gonna have a little bit of help here and now uh-oh flying through the air and he got
00:52:44caught he talked about two fingers possibly getting empty he just held on with that injured hand like
00:52:50nothing pure raw power gnarly right there i mean osiris this guy's freakish he's got all the tools to
00:52:58be a big star in this game book after the victory this past saturday book and what did dark state prove
00:53:04to you i mean they they proved they're a force to be wrecking when they can compete with anybody in the
00:53:09world i mean and like with dark state i don't think it's about winning i really think it's about the
00:53:14wrecking going out there showing nxt gosh you don't know this on again graves to booker's point
00:53:19that dark cloud of misery grew bigger after standing delivered because dark state is not only calling
00:53:25their shots they're delivering dark state is doing what they intended to do at the expense of the
00:53:30entire nxt roster you hear them say no one is safe and in this moment right now javon evans wishes he
00:53:37was anywhere else beautiful shots by lennox right there just driving those big right hands oh yes
00:53:43man it's hard to wonder for javon evans is lennox into the cover hook playing still some fight left
00:53:49in the young og will the lock them start regretting not listening to javon and speaking of regret
00:53:55is luca regretting driving to the desert i mean what the hell's going on there i don't know what the
00:54:01implication is but has anybody heard from crucifino since i don't want to speculate so much but right
00:54:08now there is no speculation for javon evans he is getting beat down by the dark state miles born
00:54:14forced to watch but also watching miles born as an o-quarter catch group who's standing
00:54:20and there's that power
00:54:23power slam big
00:54:24that's got to be it it might have been and if born didn't just save things for his team and now
00:54:30wisely tried to drag javon back over the corner right now give miles born a lot of credit because
00:54:35he knew exactly what that moment meant that the match was over it was over look at this power right
00:54:41now the osiris griffin this inverted bear he's got his fist right in the in the sternum of javon
00:54:46evans squeezing the breath out of him for evans he's far away oh miscommunication evans trying to
00:54:52comment attack was made lennox is right there to cut evans off again no wasted movement from dark
00:54:59state lennox was a step ahead realized osiris was coming his way and made the tag so close with it
00:55:05shoulders down lennox able to kick out but for evans time is running finally finally the time now miles
00:55:12born making his way in hit born right now he's been waiting patiently to just uncoil he wasn't sure which
00:55:20one he wanted to hit finally found him another big drop kick looking great right now the graves you got a
00:55:27big coming into this matchup whole move by miles born to go against and team with someone he typically
00:55:34doesn't team with right now miles born living up to his word and speaking of word i've just received
00:55:41word that our general manager ava has told trick williams to leave the building for what he did
00:55:48earlier because of his actions trick williams been tossed from the cover by born cover and a near fall
00:55:55thing saved by griffin well listen somebody's got to get trick williams under control he's been in a
00:56:00constant crash out for weeks evans soar through the skies of the fountain blue and now uh-oh trying
00:56:08to feel it everything that evans has done everything through his body since saturday oh no till now oh
00:56:15and driffin once again just manhandling the young og by himself and there is a spine rattling
00:56:25spine buster from lennox and we've seen this in the past for dark state
00:56:34that's it guys you can say it again and for dark state the path of destruction continues
00:56:41how do you stop these four no one is safe in nxt

01:01:55this is ugly things are certainly going to a dark place for the d'angelo family but we understand our
01:02:02very own sarah schreiber is standing by with a north american champion ricky saints
01:02:09ricky what started off as a title versus cup winner takes all match against lexus king
01:02:14is now a match only for your north american championship next week it sure is you know
01:02:19i'm actually thrilled for norm i know how it is to be out for close to a year for an injury and feel
01:02:24like you've been forgotten so if anybody was going to be heritage cup champion i am glad that it is
01:02:29norm door but ricky saints is a man his word and i said that i would defend the north american
01:02:36championship and guess what i will you lexus king you've got everything to gain and nothing to lose okay
01:02:44wow if it isn't the man that took out noam himself huh
01:02:59saints
01:02:59you just cost me my nxt heritage cup so next week i'm going to take your precious title from you
01:03:17well i guess we'll pick this up another time
01:03:21there is a bullseye on the back of ricky saints
01:03:36but this is a big fight feel it's main event time perez the care for the nxt women's championship
01:03:46it's live it's next on nxt
01:03:58we're back
01:04:13We're f***ing back, baby!
01:04:38Next week, NXT, we are back at the Performance Center,
01:04:41and Alexis King won't have to wait long to wear gold again.
01:04:44After an attack earlier, King will face Ricky Saints
01:04:47when they compete for the North American Championship next Tuesday.
01:04:51There are so many questions to be answered,
01:04:54namely, how did we end up here?
01:04:56A family shattered as Tony D'Angelo and Stax confront one another on NXT.
01:05:04And this is from the desk of our general manager, Ava Hank and Tank.
01:05:07We'll have their first title defense against Briggs and Inamora.
01:05:11The NXT Tag Team Championships will be defended next Tuesday,
01:05:14live on NXT here on The CW.
01:05:18You know what I'm saying?
01:05:19But it is main event time with our NXT Women's Champion
01:05:47defending her title as the women of NXT take center stage.
01:05:53No rest for the weary when you're the champion.
01:05:57Stephanie Bacare awarded three challengers Saturday,
01:06:01competed on Monday Night Raw last night,
01:06:04and is going to defend her NXT gold right now.
01:06:07NXT on The CW is presented by Progressive.

01:06:16Booker, this is a stand-and-deliver worthy main event.
01:06:20It is anywhere in the world.
01:06:21I'm going to tell you right now,
01:06:22Roxanne Perez, she has been the one but stephanie champion of all.
01:06:26The always contest scheduled for one fall
01:06:29is for the NXT Women's Championship.
01:06:36And her opponent from San Fernando, Chile.
01:06:57And she is the NXT Women's Champion, Stephanie Bacare.
01:07:10What a night it has been here on NXT.
01:07:13This is the third championship match.
01:07:15We crowned a new Heritage Cup champion earlier
01:07:18in the returning Noam Dar.
01:07:20TNA World Champion Joe Henry made his return.
01:07:23And because of that, trick snap went on a rampage
01:07:27and then was tossed from the Fountain Blue Theater
01:07:30by our general manager, Ava.
01:07:32That has brought us to this matchup
01:07:35and this moment right here, right now.
01:07:38Two of the best in the game.
01:07:39Two women who have defined the NXT Women's Division
01:07:42at various points in their careers.
01:07:44Booker, how are you feeling about this one?
01:07:46I know Roxanne's your girl.
01:07:47I'm feeling real good about it.
01:07:48I mean, it's going to be a hell of a contest
01:07:50because Stephanie Bacare has done nothing but one thing
01:07:53and that's step up to the plate.
01:07:55Give her a lot of credit, man.
01:07:57It's time to look at tonight's NXT recap
01:07:59presented by Progressive Booker.
01:08:02I've got to get your thoughts on your major main event.
01:08:04We had some major news that broke over
01:08:05WrestleMania weekend, the acquisition of AAA.
01:08:08Oh, man.
01:08:09What a great, great acquisition.
01:08:11Big, big news.
01:08:13It's been so many great stars coming out of Mexico,
01:08:16starting with Neil Masclas
01:08:17and ending with Stephanie Bacare.
01:08:20Oh, yes, man.
01:08:21Well, Graves, you even have ties to that historic promotion.
01:08:24El Rudo de las Chicas.
01:08:26They cannot wait to see what the future holds.
01:08:29A single leg takedown by Bacare.
01:08:31As we focus back in,
01:08:32there's a little roll-through shift of the weight.
01:08:34Again, these two women who know each other so very well,
01:08:36but they know each other very well, Booker,
01:08:38but this is the first time these two have met one-on-one.
01:08:42We call Roxanne Perez the prodigy,
01:08:44but I'm going to tell you right now,
01:08:45Stephanie Bacare, she's prolific in her own way.
01:08:49She's extraordinary.
01:08:50And like I said, becoming double champion, unified champion.
01:08:55She's made history.
01:08:56Can she beat the prodigy tonight?
01:08:58And guys, I want to bring this up about Stephanie.
01:09:00Show me now.
01:09:01And that's your fault.
01:09:03Is Stephanie once again putting herself at risk
01:09:06as she takes down the prodigy?
01:09:07Another quick kick out.
01:09:08Perez now going to answer right back into a cover and a kick out.
01:09:11Hey, Graves, I'll start with you.
01:09:12There's two schools of thought on that.
01:09:13You can look at it as a positive
01:09:14that Stephanie Bacare keeps herself razor sharp.
01:09:17Going through, shoulders down.
01:09:18Kick out.
01:09:19At all times, but conversely,
01:09:20she's also burning the candle.
01:09:21Oh, wait a minute.
01:09:23Shoulders down with a little bridge.
01:09:25Beautiful.
01:09:25Another near fall.
01:09:26Bacare is burning the candle at both ends.
01:09:28That does not lend itself to a lengthy championship lane.
01:09:32And I'll bounce that off again and go back to you, Booker.
01:09:34I mean, you were a multi-time champion.
01:09:36Is she putting herself at risk by never saying no?
01:09:40I think she is putting herself at risk
01:09:41because you've got to understand Roxanne Perez is willing to do anything
01:09:45to win this match.
01:09:46She's in a unique position.
01:09:48A chance to become three-time NXT Women's Champion.
01:09:51Something that no other woman has done in this company.
01:09:53That's Bacare who competed Saturday at Stand and Deliver.
01:09:56Caught Perez.
01:09:57And another roll through again.
01:09:59Counter for counter.
01:10:00And another kick out.
01:10:01Last night on Raw, Bacare went up against the women's world champion,
01:10:04EO Sky match that Roxanne Perez interfered in.
01:10:08But that has led them here to tonight, to the main event,
01:10:11with the NXT Women's Championship on the line.
01:10:13Just speaks to how quickly the landscape changes in WWE these days,
01:10:17whether it be Raw, SmackDown, NXT.
01:10:19Just because you did something for a while does not matter necessarily anymore.
01:10:24Just because Roxanne has been prolific in the past,
01:10:26it doesn't count as much as it did once upon a time.
01:10:29Well, that goes, Booker, something you say all the time.
01:10:31What have you done for me lately?
01:10:33Yes, I mean, I get it.
01:10:34I get it.
01:10:34And like I say, Roxanne Perez is definitely looking to get back in play.
01:10:38But she's got a hard road to hold because Stephanie McGeer, she's unique.
01:10:42She's official.
01:10:44A special talent, man.
01:10:46Belly to back, suplex.
01:10:47Oh, we're going to see it.
01:10:50Oh, we're going to see it.
01:10:51Oh, we're going to see it, baby.
01:10:53Looking for the devil.
01:10:55Oh, and Roxanne rolling out.
01:10:57Smart, so smart by Roxanne Perez.
01:11:02I heard she had a good coach.
01:11:04Hell of a teacher.
01:11:05Hell of a teacher.
01:11:07All right, now trying to hold on.
01:11:08Oh, right to the eyes with the challenger.
01:11:11Illegal tactics.
01:11:12She definitely learned that from you, Booker.
01:11:13Going back to what I was saying, Roxanne Perez is willing to do anything to pick this match up here tonight, man.
01:11:19Oh, yes.
01:11:19Oh, and down out of the injured arm.
01:11:20Oh, yes.
01:11:22Roxanne Perez has just taken control because the care bounced back.
01:11:27Don't miss a second of the action.
01:11:28Picture, picture, great.
01:11:32My oldest daughter, Camilla, she came out fighting.
01:11:35Two days old, she had the head of open heart surgery.
01:11:37All of a sudden, she's on, you know, five different medications.
01:11:40Me and the pharmacist got so tight.
01:11:42She said, GoodRx can save you a lot of money.
01:11:44Saving that extra $200, $300 a month.
01:11:47You know, you do the math.
01:11:48The money we're able to save with using GoodRx.
01:11:49We're able to do all these extra activities.
01:11:52She can hit hard, too, for a little skinny thing.
01:11:54So it puts less stress on our household, and it puts less stress on our pockets.

01:14:04Are you on your toes?
01:14:04I don't even know how to describe Talladega.
01:14:07Other than put everybody in a blender and hope you come out the other side.
01:14:12Be there for one of the biggest races on the NASCAR calendar.
01:14:16Talladega is just treacherous.
01:14:17Anything can happen.
01:14:19You can't win the championship at Talladega.
01:14:23But you sure can lose it.

01:14:27Live this Saturday at 3 Eastern, 12 Pacific on the CW.
01:14:32CW.
01:14:34The NXT Women's Championship is on the line.
01:14:37The matchup really changed when Roxanne Prez tried to hyperextend the left elbow of Stephanie Bacare.
01:14:43And it's, again, important to note, the right hand is taped because Bacare dislocated her right thumb Saturday at Stan in the living.
01:14:51Booker, I know you can attest to this.
01:14:52Sometimes if you're trying to protect an injury inside the ring, you actually leave yourself more susceptible to other attacks.
01:14:58It's like a bullseye, man.
01:14:59Right now, Roxanne Prez has laser beam on that shoulder right there, on that arm.
01:15:04And she's going to go out here.
01:15:05Oh, whoa, whoa, wait a minute.
01:15:07I can't be able to count for a moment.
01:15:08You talk about laser beam.
01:15:10Roxanne Prez has been laser focused on winning back the NXT Women's Championship.
01:15:14But look at that combination from the champion to the challenger.
01:15:19Under his headbutt by the champion.
01:15:20Look at that.
01:15:21Oh, a kick from the outside in.
01:15:23And now, Bacare.
01:15:26To the end.
01:15:26Oh, you've got to be kid beat.
01:15:29Yeah.
01:15:30The fountain blue beater coming alive here in Las Vegas.
01:15:35Fighting through the pain right there, throwing all caution to the wind.
01:15:39Beautiful.
01:15:40First, we see the faint kick right on point.
01:15:42And then Bacare with a springboard crossbody out onto the entrance ramp.
01:15:47Well, back to the action of the ring.
01:15:48Another high crossbody hit by Bacare.
01:15:50And we eat the feet right to Perez.
01:15:53Perez right now bouncing back into the corner.
01:15:56As you would say, Graves, target acquired.
01:15:59Meteor running these.
01:16:00And the champion somehow has found yet another gear.
01:16:05Oh.
01:16:05She just pointed at Booker.
01:16:08Here we go.
01:16:09She just pointed at Booker.
01:16:10Here we go.
01:16:11Oh, yeah.
01:16:12One, two, three, four, four, six, seven, eight, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eight, ten, ten.
01:16:22Yeah.
01:16:26Stephanie.
01:16:27Stephanie right now.
01:16:28It's been a long week.
01:16:29It's been a long week.
01:16:31Not as much torque.
01:16:31Yeah, I know we're in Vegas.
01:16:33Not as much torque.
01:16:33But I tell you, it was still good, man.
01:16:37What a flip-flopper you are.
01:16:38All of a sudden, now you're rooting for Stephanie Bacare instead of Roxanne Perez.
01:16:42What are you talking about?
01:16:43What are you talking about?
01:16:43What do you mean?
01:16:44What am I talking about?
01:16:44I'm with bias.
01:16:45I'm with bias here.
01:16:46Since wins.
01:16:47This is a match.
01:16:47This is a championship match.
01:16:49What are you talking about?
01:16:49Wait a minute.
01:16:50One more time.
01:16:51Did they say one more time?
01:16:52I don't think your heart can handle it.
01:16:54Wait a minute.
01:16:54Wait for the SVP, though.
01:16:56Roxanne able to counter right out.
01:16:57And this is what Roxanne does so well.
01:16:59The prodigy trying to get the champion down.
01:17:01Oh, beautiful switch right there.
01:17:03Another near four.
01:17:04Oh, man.
01:17:06Super kick to the ear.
01:17:07Right on the butt.
01:17:08Looked like Perez was potentially looking to take down Bacare for a crossface.
01:17:13Looking to plant Roxanne.
01:17:14Roxanne trying to counter almost out of the wheelbarrow, but still being able to be killed and did get a back break.
01:17:20Got enough of it, though.
01:17:21Oh, yeah.
01:17:22You can crack a rib very easily that way.
01:17:24You've got to give credit, too, to Stephanie Bacare for even to hold Roxanne Perez in that.
01:17:29But, whoa, she's going to the top again.
01:17:31An injured hand, an arm that's been attacked throughout the match.
01:17:34Kudos are due to the NXT Women's Champion.
01:17:36But credit to Roxanne for hanging in there.
01:17:39Back to the arm.
01:17:40And that time it wasn't the left arm.
01:17:42It was the right injured thumb.
01:17:44The right injured wrist.
01:17:45And Perez coming in.
01:17:46Oh, baby.
01:17:47It is beautiful.
01:17:47Right in the submission.
01:17:48Uh-oh.
01:17:49Crossface.
01:17:50That's it.
01:17:50That's it.
01:17:51He sits it, and it is in deep.
01:17:53It's locked in.
01:17:54Bacare's in trouble.
01:17:55Nowhere for Bacare to go.
01:17:56Can Bacare make it out, or is she going to tap?
01:17:59Are we going to crown a new NXT Women's Champion?
01:18:01If we do, it's Perez's third reign, which would be historic.
01:18:04Bacare sees the bottom rope.
01:18:06She's trying to get to the bottom.
01:18:07She's trying to reach out.
01:18:08She's trying to fight.
01:18:10And fight, she does.
01:18:11But Roxanne Perez pushes it back into the middle.
01:18:14That's wide IQ I was talking about right there.
01:18:16Roxanne Perez in prime position to make history again.
01:18:20Bacare able to slip her hips out.
01:18:21Whoa.
01:18:22Kick out.
01:18:22Nice counter rolling right back in.
01:18:24There was Roxanne coming back out into another cover.
01:18:26It's Bacare.
01:18:27Crucifix style.
01:18:28This time, another kick out.
01:18:29Flopping back onto Perez, the champion.
01:18:31And the challenger, once again, is able to get out.
01:18:35It was close.
01:18:36What a match.
01:18:37It's for the NXT Women's Championship.
01:18:39Block countered by Bacare.
01:18:41Perez hesitated for a fraction of a second.
01:18:44And the Dark Angel made the challenger pay.
01:18:46Up and over.
01:18:46Looking for Pop Rocks.
01:18:47Looking for Pop Rocks.
01:18:49And somehow countered again by Stephanie Bacare.
01:18:53And Bacare back up.
01:18:54I don't know if she just hit the top turnbuckle.
01:18:57But Bacare taking some time.
01:18:59Oh!
01:18:59And the NXT is a gnarly dragon screw.
01:19:03Once upon a time, Roxanne had an ACL and an MCL.
01:19:07And now it's S-V-B connects.
01:19:11Cover.
01:19:12And Stephanie Bacare stands tall.
01:19:15One, four.
01:19:16The NXT women's champion Stephanie Bacare stands tall.
01:19:30What a fight.
01:19:31What a main event.
01:19:34What a WrestleMania week it has been.
01:19:37How is this for the exclamation point?
01:19:40The S-V-B from the Dark Angel taking down the prodigy with the title on the line.
01:19:48Guys, if we're handing out awards, I think I've got to think of...
01:19:53Hold on, Corey.
01:19:55The beautiful madness.
01:19:58Just like last night.
01:19:59Making her presence felt.
01:20:02The former champion has locked eyes with Stephanie Bacare.
01:20:06Deja vu.
01:20:13And Julia staring a hole.
01:20:18And there I believe you saw...
01:20:20That is Jordan Grace.
01:20:21Uh-oh.
01:20:22Bacare went all in here in Vegas.
01:20:24But all eyes are on our champion.
01:20:28Here in NXT.
