- Let me just preface this post by saying that about 75% of this show is recap packages of Takeover: Chicago and WWE.com exclusive interviews from after the show. So pretty much, if you like seeing Kayla Braxton, then this is the show for you.
- Aleister Black vs Curt Hawkins-Black runs through Hawkins right away, springboarding over him and hitting a big knee strike. Hawkins is able to get Black onto the apron, but Black is able to kick him away before hitting a high knee strike. Black sets up for Black Mass, but Hawkins rolls out of the ring to avoid it. Black follows him out, so Hawkins goes back in the ring. Black goes back in, so Hawkins leaves again. Black goes out after him again, but this time Hawkins catches him and rams him into the side of the ring. Back in the ring, Hawkins works over Black and slaps on a headlock. Black quickly regains control, kicking away at Hawkins before hitting a springboard moonsault. Black finishes Hawkins off with Black Mass for the three and the win.
- Kayla Braxton interviews Asuka. She says nobody can stand toe-to-toe with her and the NXT Women's Championship is hers
- Patrick Clark debuts tonight.
- Kayla Braxton interviews Roderick Strong. He says you can do whatever you want to him, but if you bring his family into it there is nothing they can do to stop him from ending them. He adds that his victory over Eric Young is another step towards the NXT Championship.
- The Velveteen Dream vs Robert Anthony-It's the finally the re-re-debut of Patrick Clark from Tough Enough, now called "The Velveteen Dream." He squares off against and easily defeats former CZW World Heavyweight Champion Robert Anthony, winning off a beautiful elbow drop.
- Kayla Braxton interviews Pete Dunne. He says he's watched Tyler Bate living a dream with the title that was rightfully his. And now, everything is his.
- Kayla Braxton interviews Bobby Roode. He says it's not surprising that he beat Hideo Itami and he didn't even realize Itami was still in NXT. He says Itami may have earned it, but Itami isn't in his league and now he's going to enjoy some time off. Then he'll decide who's next in line for a title shot. He ends by saying his NXT will continue to be glorious.
- Drew McIntyre vs Wesley Blake-McIntyre starts off with a shoulder block. Blake chops McIntyre in the corner, so McIntyre responds with a boot to the face. Blake goes back to beating down McIntyre in the corner, but McIntyre responds with a belly-to-belly suplex. Blake comes back, yanking McIntyre's arm down across the top rope before hitting a big clothesline for a near fall before the commercial break. We come back to Blake working on the arm of McIntyre. McIntyre fights to his feet and sets up Blake on the top rope, only for Blake to jumping into McIntyre and locking in an armbar mid-jump. McIntyre is able to get a rope break and toss Blake out of the ring but his arm is too hurt to capitalize. The two trade strike before McIntyre hits a big boot and beats down Blake in the corner. McIntyre follows up with a diving axe handle and follows up with a sky high spinebuster for a near fall. Blake comes back by throwing McIntyre shoulder first into the turnbuckle before rolling him up for a near fall. Blake quickly locks in a crossface, but McIntyre fights out before hitting a reverse Alabama Slam for a near fall. McIntyre goes for the Future Shock DDT, but Blake avoids it and hits an arm breaker for a near fall. Blake goes to the top rope for the frog splash, but McIntyre kips up and meets him at the top. McIntyre goes for a superplex, but Blake ends up crotching McIntyre on the top rope and gets him in the Tree of Woe. However, McIntyre sits up and throws Blake down to the mat by his head. McIntyre frees himself before going for the Claymore. Blake avoids it, but gets headbutted right after and eats the Claymore for the three and the win for McIntyre. Solid match.
