General Manager Ava is in the ring. She says that part of her job is pushing further into a new era and breaking glass ceilings, and she will do just that with the first-ever female NXT Underground Match. Natalya and Karmen Petrovic show up first, and Natalya signs the contract. Lola Vice shows up second, and she also signs the contract. Natalya tells Lola she has sealed her fate and asks who she has in her corner, but Lola says Natalya should be worried about herself and that just because she can shake her ass, that does not mean she can't kick her ass. She says that they will be making history next week and that she will break her. Natalya says Lola has an ego that needs to be kept in check, and while she respects where Lola came from, Lola does not respect her. She says that she respects the Superstars of the past and presents and if Lola is to lead the future, then she will have to beat some respect into her. Natalya tells Lola to bring everything she has in their match next week, because she will tap her out. Lola says Natalya can try, but when the lights dim, her fate is in the fastest hands in the division and her training partner will make them faster. Lola's training partner is none other than "The Queen of Spades" Shayna Baszler, who heads to the ring. Shayna says Natalya is smart enough to realize her odds have gone from slim to none, and that when it comes to fighting, the baddest woman in NXT is aligned with the baddest woman in WWE. She tells Natalya that she still has time to leave the match gracefully and tear the contract up, especially if Petrovic is her training partner. When Shayna shoves Petrovic, Petrovic kicks her in the face, and Natalya soon shoves Lola out of the ring.
