Samoa Joe shows up. He didn't know that NXT General Manager William Regal put him in a NXT Championship match against Shinsuke Nakamura until he walked into the building. He is angry with William Regal for not consulting him first, and says the match will not happen as he calls Nakamura "an undeserving contender" and didn't do what he did to get to the title. Regal shows up, and tells Joe he will fight who he tells him to fight. Joe says he had to jump over every hoop Regal had to get the title, and that Nakamura did not do that. He wants Regal to get him "a real, deserving contender," but Regal tells him if he refuses, it counts as a forfeit and Joe loses the title. Joe tells Regal that if this is how he wants to play, he'll have his match, but he will destroy Nakamura, and if he sees Nakamura before TakeOver, Nakamura might not make it to TakeOver at all. Nakamura shows up and stares down Samoa Joe from the top of the entrance ramp to end the show.
