It's time for Nathan Frazer presents Hard Hitting Home Truths with Nathan Frazer. Frazer admits his return to NXT since Halloween Havoc has not been going so well and feels something is missing, but he soon realized that NXT is cutthroat and says that everyone is quality or else they would not be here. He says all one has to do is look inward and that nothing can affect if he does not slow down, and says that if one constantly improves, nothing can catch him. He then says it is time to practice what he preaches and turn things around.
Noam Dar beats Myles Borne.
We hear from Roxanne Perez, who says that while Zoey Stark can go in the ring, that does not give her free reign to run people down like she does and prey on people who she perceives as weak, which makes her the weakest one. She says that she will shut Stark up on her way back to the NXT Women's Championship, and if she has to beat Tiffany Stratton and her self-entitlement to get the title back, so be it.
Josh Briggs meets with Kiana James and asks her to talk to Brooks Jensen, but Kiana asks Briggs to talk to Jensen himself.

Odyssey Jones is attacked by Bron Breakker before the next match, then says that this is what happens when someone gets in his way. He then says he had to put a stop to the "pathetic" Chase University assembly where everyone got a trophy. He says that if anyone wants to be a clown, they can go to the circus, because he is not allowing it anymore. Bron says that Odyssey Jones, Carmelo Hayes and Andre Chase felt it, then Duke Hudson shows up and tells Bron to keep Andre Chase's name out of his mouth and that he made a big mistake interrupting his MVP ceremony and tearing the Chase University flag in half before placing it on top of Andre Chase. After mocking Bron Breakker for being sad and moping about, he says that nobody puts down the Chase University name, not even Bron Breakker, and on behalf of the university, he challenges Bron to a match. Bron says the last time he saw Hudson, he took off and ran with the trophy faster than he had ever seen, then Hudson laughs at Bron for thinking he was done talking and says next week will be "a battle of the giants" when he faces Andre Chase and gets a Chase University-sized ass-whipping. Bron looks at the camera and tells Andre Chase to enjoy the next seven days, he will Spear his little ass in half and it will be the end of Chase U.

Roxanne Perez beats Zoey Stark. After the match, Indi Hartwell shows up and congratulates Roxanne Perez, then says she would not be champion if it were not for her and that it would not be fair if she did not return the favor with a title match next week as a fighting champion. Roxanne says Indi is her friend in and out of the ring, but when it comes to the NXT women's title, it is every woman for herself, and she accepts the challenge. Tiffany Stratton shows up and takes offense to not being considered for a title shot, and calls Indi's title reign "pure dumb luck" after she barely climbed up the ladder and challenged beatable opponents. After Roxanne says Tiffany could not even beat her to win the Women's Breakout Tournament, Indi says she does not care if her challenger is an ex-champion or "some bimbo who thinks she has her number," as she will prove herself by beating both of them.

At Big Daddy's Bar, Josh Briggs talks with Fallon Henley about Brooks Jensen, and Fallon says that Kiana has Jensen wrapped around her finger. Kiana and Jensen soon show up.

We see a vignette for Oba Femi where Femi throws numerous objects over great distances. Oba Femi debuts next week.
It's time for The Grayson Waller Effect. Tonight's guest is Carmelo Hayes, who shows up with Trick Williams. Carmelo Hayes gives Grayson Waller credit for finding himself in the main event despite continually losing. Waller says that he has become the biggest star without a title as much as Carmelo has with one, and says he is what a championship needs. Grayson Waller then questions "He is Him," then says that "Him" is Trick Williams and that Carmelo would not be a champion without him. Carmelo, having seen this coming, says Waller stole every opportunity he had and that Waller may not be "that guy." Carmelo then has Grayson Waller's accomplishments on the TitanTron, then nothing shows up, and Carmelo says Waller does not have any. Waller says Carmelo may have won the NXT Championship, but he stole the show. After Waller says he was the main event before Carmelo's music hit, Carmelo says that his "six out of ten" is three more points than any woman Waller has dated. After both men say they should be carrying other people's bags and roast each other, Waller says he will be champion and Carmelo says he will retain.
Here are the top ten moments from tonight's show!
