Generation NXT - NXT recap for September 21, 2016

Samoa Joe shows up to start tonight's show. He addresses the altercation between himself and "The King of Strong Style" Shinsuke Nakamura and reads the medical report in his hands, which states that Nakamura has suffered numerous injuries, will not require surgery but will require rest and rehabilitation up to six to twelve weeks. Joe isn't waiting that long, and he calls out General Manager William Regal, asking him to either bring him Nakamura or bring him the NXT title. Regal shows up, and says the medical report in Joe's hands is correct even though he has no idea where Joe got that report. However, he has not spoken to Nakamura yet, saying that Nakamura isn't the kind of guy who just picks up the phone. He says he will take care of the NXT Championship situation, especially the parts of it that Joe caused. Joe says "I didn't think it would come to this," leaves the ring and approaches Regal, telling him to "do the right thing" or else he will injure the rest of the NXT roster.

Cedric Alexander says he has worked seven years to get here, and he wanted the best. He got Andrade "Cien" Almas as his opponent, and now he plans to walk out on top tonight.

Livv Morgan says she didn't come to NXT to play limbo, she came here to hop hurdles. She isn't bowing down to anybody, and even though Asuka claims to have cleared out the women's division, she's standing right here, and she's not rising from the bottom to stay there. Asuka shows up, and says "If you think you're ready, let's find out."

Austin Aries beats Oney Lorcan with the Last Chancery. Aries says that the NXT Universe was buzzing about where he was last week. He says he was at home as he has more important things to do with his time off, and now that he's here, he would call out Hideo Itami, but Itami is a coward. Hideo Itami shows up and enters the ring, but Austin Aries leaves with his arms in the air like he just won a million dollars.

Dan Matha is coming to NXT in two weeks...

Last week, The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) and #DIY (Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa) brawled in the Full Sail University parking lot after the finale of The Cruiserweight Classic.

Billie Kay beats Aliyah.

Mandy Rose says Ember Moon doesn't have what it takes and doesn't fit the mold as she looks like a combination of Little Red Riding Hood and The Hunger Games. She calls herself what a real women's wrestler should look like, and says Ember Moon will see what it's like to be eclipsed when she gets in the ring with her.

Next week on NXT: Liv Morgan vs. Asuka!

NXT is coming to Tokyo, Japan on December 3rd!

Cedric Alexander beats Andrade "Cien" Almas in his NXT debut. Both men shake hands after the match, and Almas pulls Alexander back to hug him.
