** NXT **

- Johnny Gargano vs. Tino Sabbatelli: The match closes out with Gargano unloading and nailing the step up enziguri on Tino. Tino catches Gargano in a reversal and hits a power slam. Gargano is up and locks in the Gargano Escape submission and Tino taps out quickly.
Winner: Johnny Gargano, by submission.

- In NXT GM William Regal's office, Roderick Strong tells Regal he kept his promise of giving him a match with Bobby Roode, now he wants his other promise granted, a NXT World Championship Match against Drew McIntyre. Regal announces it'll happen in two weeks.

- Backstage, Sonya Deville says she never got to face Asuka and it's a good thing because she would've broken Asuka's undefeated streak. Sonya lays claim to the now vacant NXT Women's Championship.

- Lacey Evans vs. Bianca Belair: The match closes out with Lacey countering Bianca into a leg sweep and then connects with a slingshot elbow. Bianca is back up and flip suplexes Lacey. Lacey comes back and unloads knees and punches on Bianca. Bianca counters a shot and sends Lacey face first into the ropes and then unloads her ponytail whip on Lacey. Bianca hits a reverse power bomb and scores the pinfall.
Winner: Bianca Belair, by pinfall.

- Aleister Black Promo: Black says that 15 years ago, he started a journey that led him in to NXT. His body earned scars and tattoos in that 15 years time. The Velveteen Dream Patrick Clark suddenly interrupts Black. Clark says Black hasn't seen the light of the Velveteen Dream yet, he doesn't see pain or scars, just lies in the form of tattoos and Black is scared of fear and seeing the light. Black heard enough as he sends the microphone flying out of Clark's hands with the Black Mass kick. Black sits Indian style which doesn't bother Clark as he crawls over to and away from Black to end the promo.

- Backstage, Dakota Kai says she may be new to NXT, but those who watched the Mae Young Classic know exactly who she is. Dakota is the captain of team kick and wants an NXT Women's Championship Match.

- No Way Jose vs. Lars Sullivan: The match closes out with Sullivan hitting a series of corner splashes on Jose and then applies a chin lock submission. Jose escapes and applies a sleeper hold submission on Sullivan. Sullivan crashes Jose into the corner to break the hold. Jose unloads on Sullivan, but Sullivan doesn't budge. Sullivan plants Jose and then hits a diving head butt off the ropes. Sullivan hits a delayed slam on Jose and scores the pinfall.
Winner: Lars Sullivan, by pinfall.

- The Undisputed Era (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) vs. Mustache Mountain (Tyler Bate and Trent Seven): The match closes out with Bate and Seven double teaming O'Reilly and then hitting a jack knife cover for a near fall. O'Reilly counters the Tyler Driver into a guillotine body scissor. Bate tries to escape, but Fish lands a knee after taking out Seven. Fish and O'Reilly hit a suplex/kick combo for a close near fall. Bate shoves The Undisputed Era into each other and finally hot tags Seven. Seven unloads, but gets hit with a flying arm bar from O'Reilly. Seven attempts a counter, but eats a kick from Fish. Bate tries to help save Seven, but Adam Cole trips up Bate and takes him out. Fish and O'Reilly hit their high low kicks on Seven and score the pinfall.
Winners: The Undisputed Era, by pinfall.


- After the match, Drew McIntyre hits the ring as The Undisputed Era retreat quickly. SAnitY suddenly arrives to stop The Undisputed Era's exit. We get brawling and chaos to close out this week's show.
