Generation NXT - NXT recap for September 29, 2026

Zaria retains the NXT Women's North American Championship against Thea Hail.

Backstage, Romeo Moreno and Noam Dar are talking with The Wagner Brothers (El Hijo del Dr. Wagner Jr. and Galena) regarding the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic when Fraxiom (Nathan Frazer and Axiom) shows up. As Fraxiom look back on coming together as a team in a past tournament and look forward to the competition in the current one, The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake, Myka Lockwood) show up and look forward to facing The Wagner Brothers, if they can get that far.

Myles Borne heads to the ring. Borne says that he meant what he said to Tavion Heights, but he went back to being the man that he did not want to be. He says he wanted to just be himself, and that Tavion was never going to play him for a sucker, he was setting himself up for it. He says that in the moment, he thought he could have everything, but he lost both of his title, and he could only think of one man: "All Ego" Ethan Page, who kept telling him that he needed a killer instinct, and according to Borne, was right about the business. Borne says he was standing still and that he could continue to be "one half" or become the star he knew that he always was, which led to him attacking Tavion with the chair like he did to Ethan Page. He says that he became his true self, but in return, the fans just made him feel guilty. Borne says the fans only liked him because they felt sorry for him because he was deaf and because he was another way to fill "the fans' social justice warrior cup." Borne says that without him, Tavion would never have become a tag team champion, but without Tavion, he would still be North American Champion. He tells the fans not to feel sorry for him, as he feels sorry for the fans, as he is the deaf one and they all watch him. He says the fans acted shocked when he became champion, but his shoulders were meant to carry that burden. He then dares the fans to continue to make fun of him and tells them to turn closed captions on or else he can show him something they can understand. Borne says that he is done being the bigger person and that he does not need to listen to the fans, as it has only surrounded him with hypocrites. He then says he is done treating people the way he wants to be treated and that he will be "the successful version of Myles Borne," then tells the fans to go to Hell.

Backstage, Lizzy Rain meets with General Manager Robert Stone regarding opportunity. Chaz "Starboy" Hall and Mini Vikingo meet with Stone, who wishes them luck in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic as both men look forward to winning tonight.

Backstage, Emily Agard interviews Grayson Waller. Waller says that Mason Rook was the rightful #1 contender, but Mason does not have to quit tonight, because the doctors did it for him. He then says he sees a fire in the locker room, but nobody is hungry enough to take his title. He says that if anyone wants to be champion, then they should do something about, as the first person who gets in the ring with him will get "the Grayson Waller rub."

Chaz "Starboy" Hall and Mini Vikingo beat Birthright (Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo and Uriah Connors) to advance in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. After the match, Birthright attack Mini Vikingo and Starboy, with Charlie Dempsey and Lexis King joining in, until Zilla Fatu runs in and cleans house against the whole of Birthright, with Stacks getting hit with the Triple Z. Zilla Fatu then tells Birthright that he is done with the numbers game and that he is taking them down one by one, then says he will answer Grayson Waller's open challenge for the NXT Championship and taking the title home.

On NXT Chronicle, we hear from Cruz Montana, who also plans to answer Grayson Waller's open challenge. He says that his fire has been burning forever, as he has been taught not to tolerate disrespect like that from Dion Lennox. He realizes that he is blessed that his daughter does not have to go through anything he had to go through, as he never really got to be a kid, as he had to help raise his siblings. Montana says his mother did what she had to do so that they could all survive, and he is proud of that woman, as she survived things that are unimaginable and she is now the greatest version of herself. He then mentions his late father, and tears up when he says that despite his father's flaws and shortcomings, his presence was the greatest gift his father gave him. Montana talks about how he got out of rehab and became his greatest version of himself, and says that if Dion Lennox wants to start something, he will finish it.

Backstage, Zaria runs into Izzi Dame before entering the rest of the locker room. Zaria then sees a lot of pink things, including a dress, at her locker, much to her chagrin.

Kelani Jordan heads to the ring. Kelani says that one of the things she loves about being NXT Women's Champion is that she is no longer an afterthought. She says that women can step up to take her title, but they will not, then wonders who she will be defending her title against next. She then says that she is just that good, as she has cleared just about every single challenger, then says that she will not just give anyone a title shot, as nobody has handed her anything. She says she is "the standout, not the handout." Kelani then states that when a true challenger steps up, she will defend her championship, and that regardless of who is up next now, the results will be the same, as nobody can do it like her. General Manager Robert Stone shows up and announces that there will be a 20-woman battle royal, with the winner facing Kelani for the NXT Women's Championship at Halloween Havoc. He also announces that Raw, SmackDown, AAA, Evolve and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling superstars will be in the battle royal. All of a sudden, Kelani is attacked from behind by Reina Vulcan, who declares for the battle royal.

Backstage, Naraku looks forward to answering Grayson Waller's open challenge. Saquon Shugars shows up and says the NXT Championship is his and that he is not waiting two weeks to face Tristan Angels. When General Manager Robert Stone mentions Naraku's upcoming match with Shiloh Hill, Saquon says that the only difference between Shiloh and the "evil" Naraku is that Shiloh has a brain, and when he feels that Shiloh will be Naraku, Naraku says "We'll see about that," laughing on his way out.

Fraxiom (Nathan Frazer and Axiom) beat DarkState (Cutler James and Osiris Griffin) to advance in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.

This week on NXT Spotlight, Kendal Grey talks with the sports psychologist. Kendal Grey says that wrestling is her life and that she cannot focus on anything but wrestling outside of her career and is just focused on getting back in the ring. She says that "work harder" was always her answer to everything, and that she does not know how stop. She also does not know what to do when working harder is not enough.

Backstage, General Manager Robert Stone meets with Izzi Dame, who says that she made Zaria's locker more pink and wanted to show everyone the true NXT Women's North American Champion. She also finds out that she and Zaria are both in the 20-woman battle royal.

Grayson Waller heads to the ring. He says that the fans should be thanking him for showing up for work, unlike Mason Rook, then says that the locker room has their chance to show who is ready for him. He declares the first person in the ring the first person to get a shot. The men's locker room spills out, and more men backstage race to the ring. Numerous men and officials show up, and Zilla Fatu comes out ahead only to be joined by Cruz Montana. Montana and Zilla fight, and they soon get beat up. All of a sudden, EK Prosper shows up from behind, gets in the ring, and becomes Grayson Waller's opponent.

Grayson Waller retains the NXT Championship against EK Prosper.

Backstage, Zilla Fatu says that nobody wants to see him win and that Birthright is why he is not standing as NXT Champion. He then says he will "fuck Lexis King up."

Noam Dar and Romeo Moreno beat Los Americanos (Rayo Americano and Bravo Americano) to advance in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.

We see Kendal Grey talk with the sports psychologist. She says that the hardest part of being out is that she cannot fight for what she lost, and also how she had to redshirt in her freshman year due to injury. She says that this time feels different. She knew she would be cleared for the next season in college, but this time, she has no timetable for her return, everything is gone in the snap of a finger and she is afraid that she will not come back the same. The sports psychologist asks Kendal Grey to think about who she is if she is not competing. Kendal says "I don't know."

Grammy-nominated recording artist Jimmie Allen is seen in the crowd.

Dorian shows up and says he can go, but Sean reminds him he has a hole in his lung. EK Prosper shows up, and he is Zilla and Legacy's third man.

Cruz Montana heads to the ring. Montana says that he made his intentions clear since entering NXT and that he is learning lessons instead of taking losses, then says he will be watching who wins the NXT Championship before DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Osiris Griffin) shows up in the crowd. Lennox says that Montana does a good job of making himself sound more important than he really is, then says that DarkState will run through the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. Montana says Lennox talks tough when he has his crew, then tells him to face him in the ring like a man. Lennox says Montana was the guy in TNA and won titles in every promotions, then says that does not make Montana better than him and that Montana shakes at the very idea of structure. He says he will never relate to "eating dirt like [Montana] did" on the subject of Montana calling EK Prosper "the future." Montana says he cleaned up his own mistakes, spent years overcoming demons and learned from some of the best in the game. Montana says he has paid his dues every step of the way and earned everything he has been blessed with in and out of the ring, and that Lennox has nothing on him and that he could have used some of that. Montana says he can run rings around Lennox in every aspect of the business every single day, and says Lennox walked into wrestling because he could not cut it anywhere else, including the NFL, while he earned his way in. Montana says he carries his city, his family and his people on his back while Lennox thinks he is entitled to what he wants. Lennox mentions Montana's mother being a drug dealer, saying his wasn't and that he did things right to the point WWE begged him to be here. He then notes that despite that, the fans hate him but love Montana because Montana was a drug dealer who has it all together and walks around like a hero when he became the man he should have been from day one. Lennox says Montana had to lose everything to become somebody while he has been somebody his entire life. Montana punches him in the face, and officials have to break up the brawl as it heads to the back.

Backstage, General Manager Robert Stone congratulates Mason Rook on becoming #1 contender for the NXT Championship and has given him an open mic tonight. Hank Walker and Tank Ledger tell Mason Rook to go with his gut tonight. Mason Rook leaves, then Hank and Tank address the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic, saying that they are helping themselves to the tag team division for the time being.

The Creed Brothers (Julius and Brutus Creed) beat Jax Presley and Harley Riggins to advance in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.

In this week's NXT Spotlight, we look back on Myles Borne's betrayal of Tavion Heights from last week.

Birthright (Lexis King, Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, Uriah Connors) beat Zilla Fatu, EK Prosper and "Super" Sean Legacy in a six-man tag match after Arianna Grace distracts the referee, keeping EK Prosper from tagging in and allowing Uriah Connors to take advantage and pin Sean Legacy with an inside cradle for the win. After the match, Lexis King gets in Zilla Fatu's face, and Zilla smacks him before Stacks can save Lexis King from the Triple Z.

Backstage, Emily Agard interviews Zaria, who says there is a difference between beating her in a tag match and beating her in a championship match. All of a sudden, some old footage shows up on the nearby monitor as Izzi Dame shows up. Zaria leaves embarrassed, and Izzi says no good deed goes unpunished.

Grayson Waller heads to the ring. He is soon joined by Mason Rook, and the two of them have a face-to-face meeting in the ring. Grayson refuses to let Mason have a microphone before asking if the spotlight is too bright before saying it is where he wants to be, then says he is bringing prestige back to the NXT Championship against the best and that nobody is better - or hungrier - than Mason Rook. Grayson addresses all they left behind to chase their dreams, then states that they are not the same before mocking Mason and stating he could roast Mason like a pig in a luau with a twenty-minute stand-up routine before giving Mason credit where credit is due. He says that Mason has so much potential, but is not willing to do that much extra hard work to become what he is meant to be, then says that Mason is soft, complacent and happy to be here, then says he will take Mason to the deepest waters and drown him. After stating that Mason will eventually quit against him, then hands him the microphone. Mason tells Grayson that he is not an idiot, then says there is a theory about why Grayson in NXT and that he did not quite fit the vision on the main roster. He also mentions that unlike Grayson, John Cena knew who he was before he stepped in a WWE ring, then says he will not play Grayson's game because Grayson cannot play his. Mason then asks what will really happen when the bell rings. Mason says Grayson will drown in his deepest water and that he is here because he earned the right to be in WWE by being the best big man in the ring, and that as great as Grayson is at running his mouth, he will realize that he is over his head and his promo skills will not save him.

Borne thanks Tavion for coming to the ring, and Tavion says they have been through a lot and that brothers fight. He then says that Borne crossed the line at Heatwave, and Borne says that he jumped the gun and that he was paranoid. He says that they both had no idea how it would be if they lost their titles, and says sorry. Tavion says he appreciates the apology, but that his back is still sore from where he still stabbed him after he lost his first title in NXT. He says that this is not something that one can just forget, and that maybe that time has passed. Myles Borne brings up Tavion Heights challenging him for the North American Championship and feeling like a bad brother, and how he was able to forgive Tavion together. Borne says that they are unstoppable together and that nobody can take away the memories they have had. He says that he is not proud of what he has done and that Tavion can relate, then asks Tavion do for him what he did for Tavion and to forgive him so they can start fresh again. Tavion acknowledges that he had a part to play in all of this, and Borne says that they need to balance that success without it overshadowing their friendship. Borne says he cannot take back what he did, but he loves Tavion like a brother.

Kelani Jordan heads to the ring. She says she should have known from when she won the NXT Women's Championship on the first shot that she would be setting a new standard as champion. Kelani says she is not like other champions because she puts her money where he mouth is and succeeds every single time, but every time she wins, another woman want to make it about herself. She says that while Wren Sinclair got suspended, she debuted on Raw in Mexico City, Mexico, then says that nobody is coming for her title because they are all too intimidated to step up. As Kelani says that she is setting a new standard and that nobody is doing it like her, the new AAA Reina de Reinas Champion, La Catalina, suddenly shows up and heads to the ring.La Catalina says that Kelani Jordan is not the only one setting records in WWE and that she will be the one taking women's wrestling in Mexico to the next level. Suddenly, Zaria shows up. Zaria says they can both talk about standards all they want, but when it comes to dominant champions, her name had better be in the conversation, as neither Kelani or La Catalina are unifying titles. As Zaria says that Thea Hail's win against her was a fluke, Thea Hail shows up and says it is time somebody talked about her, saying that she can hang with anyone in the ring and the fans know it. She says she may be the youngest in the ring, but she is finding her footing and she is championship material, as she tapped out the Women's North American Champion and she has to do it one more time to win the title again. This leads to a two-on-two brawl, and Thea Hail and La Catalina get the better of Kelani Jordan and Zaria.

We hear from Tony D'Angelo, who says that people do not change and that people carry their past with them. He says he is glad to face Mason Rook and Saquon Shugars on the way back to the NXT Championship, as Saquon helped take what he once had and Mason Rook tried to earn his stripes on his first day by taking him out. D'Angelo says that people do not change, but neither does he, and he is the once and future NXT Champion.

Charlie Dempsey is in the ring. He says that enough is enough after keeping his head down for six years, and says that even though he has always been substance over style and action over words, he can say he has never sold out. He says that when Birthright (Lexis King, Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, Uriah Connors, Charlie Dempsey, Arianna Grace) came together, he could not pass up the opportunity, as they wanted to mold wrestling into what it was meant to be. Dempsey sees Birthright as a new start and a means of proving he is the best grappler in the company, but he has been made to look like a fool. Dempsey sees Birthright as a new start and a means of proving he is the best grappler in the company, but he has been made to look like a fool. He says he is going to force NXT to take him seriously after NXT turns its back on real wrestlers while hiring former football players, and says that those who deserve it should come and take it and that that nobody can step up to Birthright, especially Zilla Fatu.

D'Angelo is more focused on getting back the NXT Championship, while Mason rook wants everyone on the same page. Tristan Angels shows up and says Rook should not even be here at all and that he would fit in the main event tonight, but Saquon reminds Tristan that he could not get his first singles win against Zilla Fatu.

Jackson Drake retains the NXT North American Championship against Tavion Heights despite Drake's left foot being injured and targeted by Tavion during the match. After the match, Myles Borne is spotted in the crowd, and Tavion notices him.

General Manager Robert Stone shows up, and Keanu Carver's mood changes, with Carver saying that he is looking forward to tonight.

Zaria heads to the ring. Zaria talks about how there was always someone or something in her way of championship gold, including Sol Ruca, and how she dumped "the dead weight" of Sol Ruca seven months ago and went on to beat everyone's favorites. She says that this continued at Heatwave where she put to bed every remaining doubt about who she was when she carried two titles and unified them, and now the Women's Speed Championship is in the past while she continues to be Women's North American Champion. Izzi Dame shows up and questions exactly how dominant Zaria is, then says that Zaria is presenting a facade that she can see right through and is now everything that she hated. Izzi says there is more to Zaria than the facepaint and that she will expose who the real Zaria is, then Thea Hail suddenly shows up and says everyone does not care what Zaria says and that that she will get the women's North American Championship again. Izzi says this is boring and leaves this between Zaria and . Zaria says that Thea would not be here if it were not for Jaida Parker telling her what to do, and that Thea will never be champion again because someone does the thinking for her. Thea says she has at least a real friend, but Zaria says that even Jaida will leave her like everyone else. Thea says she will get over that when Zaria gets over Sol Ruca, and when Zaria headbutts Thea, Thea fights back and makes Zaria tap.

Zilla Fatu heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Zilla was hoping he would be NXT Champion tonight, but Heatwave did not go his way. He thought he had everything figured out, but he took the loss and he did not get the job done despite the red carpet rolled out for him. He then says that it felt amazing to be in NXT in the first place, then states that it is just a matter of when he holds the title. All of a sudden, Zilla is interrupted by Tristan Angels. Tristan says that nobody wants to hear Zilla prattle about Heatwave any further and that the fans have the attention span of fruit flies, then tells Zilla that he is not the main one in his own family, much less NXT, and had no chance of winning. He says that there is nothing about Zilla that makes him a champion unlike him. Zilla calls Tristan "Gangrel Jr.," then says that while he likes his accent, he does not like his attitude. Zilla says his family in Texas saw him in action, but his family in Orlando gets to see him whip that ass. Tristan goes for a cheap shot, saying that Zilla wants his second loss in NXT, but Zilla gets the better of him.

We hear from Myles Borne, who says that he does not regret defending two title on Sunday and that he had no excuses. He also knew that the tag team titles meant something to Tavion Heights, and he did not believe that Tavion would turn on him. He says that he saw it coming and got Tavion before Tavion got him.

Naraku beats Shiloh Hill after spitting green mist into his hand. Shiloh ducks to avoid having mist spit into his eyes, but Naraku goes for Shiloh's eyes with the misted hand instead, which gives him the pin and the win.

Generation NXT - NXT recap for July 28, 2026

Grayson Waller makes a surprising return to start tonight's show. He talks about his debut, his match at WrestleMania 40, and says that something changed after that and the last two years became an embarrassment. He says he spent "240 lbs. of idiot" on his back making someone relevant again to the point that people chanted for them, and says that person (who is Austin Theory) is still allergic to the microphone. He then mentions his time in The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) without specifically mentioning them, saying he dressed for a funeral and the only thing dying was his career. He then says "It's a new day" and he is now in the best shape of his life, and says he needs to conquer some demons, one of which is the NXT Championship. He says that without the title, he has been treated like "a Netflix break comedy act" instead of the future of the industry, then addresses Mike Santana - under his new name of Cruz Montana - saying people will stop caring about him in six weeks. Grayson says he is not impressed with Montana, saying that being the best in Total Nonstop Action is like being the best basketball player in the YMCA. He also dares Tony D'Angelo to face him, saying that he has nobody left to face him. When told to wrap the promo up, Grayson Waller says that Shawn Michaels can send of his guys if he has a problem. He says that the NXT roster is soft, complacent and happy to be here, then says the only people ready for the main roster is the women's division. He then says some people put "NXT" in their social media bio just to waste their career in medical and that some of the indie talent are a bunch of charisma vacuums the moment they have a microphone, then says Shawn is smiling because he is telling the truth. Grayson says he is going to take the title, the division and any opportunity anybody else is supposed to have, because he is finally starting to remember who he is. His microphone then gets cut off. Grayson then gets in front of a camera just to say that he just took an opportunity and that everyone's cage is black. The show cuts to black immediately.

Backstage, Myles Borne and Tavion Heights talk about Grayson Waller before focusing on business. Mason Rook shows up and also mentions his irritation with Grayson's promo, then says he wants his hands on Kam Hendrix. Myles Borne tells Mason to stay out of his match, but Mason wants to kick Hendrix's ass.

Lizzy Rain beats Izzi Dame after being distracted by Niko Vance only for Niko to nearly be attacked with a metal folding chair by Shawn Spears.

Backstage, Noam Dar and Romeo Moreno meet Cruz Montana, then Saquon Shugars shows up. Noam Dar apologizes for the loss, but Saquon says they got their licks in, and Romeo says they would do it again. Noam and Romeo leave, and Montana confronts Saquon, who says that he is a different man now and asks him to let hit handle DarkState first before they settle things. Saquon leaves, and Kelani Jordan shows up and tells Montana that NXT is an unsafe working environment. Montana leaves as soon as Kelani turns her back.

Backstage, General Manager Robert Stone meets with The Vanity Project (Brady Baylor, Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake, Myka Lockwood), who mention that Myles Borne and Tavion Heights are not on their level and that Jackson Drake will soon be NXT Champion. They leave when Keanu Carver shows up - and after Myka Lockwood gets a good look at Carver - wanting a match with EK Prosper, which he gets. Keanu leaves before Stone gets a call from Grayson Waller, and Stone tells Grayson to return to the building because they are not finished.

We hear from Lola Vice, who says that Kendal Grey has no idea what she is getting into with their NXT Underground match like she does. She says that while Kendal Grey will run the women's division, but not while she is still here. She hopes to expose Kendal Grey and become a two-time NXT Women's Champion.

Backstage, Thea Hail meets with Jaida Parker and talks about last week, and Jaida thanks Thea for having her back when she is not the easiest person in the locker room to deal with. Thea returns the favor, then says that they will have a tag match with Nattie and Karmen Petrovic next week. Jaida Parker looks forward to it, and says that she has Thea's back after being the most trustworthy person in the locker room.

Myles Borne retains the NXT North American Championship against Kam Hendrix after Tavion Heights stops Mason Rook from interfering, allowing Borne to kick out of the Showtime Kick and hit Borne Again to win and retain. After the match, Tavion Heights lets Mason Rook go after Kam Hendrix, and as Rook and Hendrix brawl to the back, Borne and Tavion are attacked by The Vanity Project (Brady Baylor, Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake) only to come out on top.

Backstage, Emily Agard interviews Lizzy Rain, who is eating some KFC Popcorn Chicken, saying that Shiloh Hill turned her on to it and that she could beat Izzi Dame all over again. Lizzy then hopes that Izzi Dame is in the rear view for her upcoming Triple Threat Match. Tristan Angels shows up and shows disappointment in Lizzy, then says that Lizzy will reconsider who her role mdoels are after he batters Shiloh Hill.

Backstage, OTM (Bronco Nima and Lucien Price) are met by Angel and Berto, who reminds Bronco Nima that while God forgives, Los Perros del Mal (Angel, Berto, Daga, Bronco Nima, Karmen Petrovic) do not. Bronco leaves, and Lucien Price follows after staring seemingly disapprovingly at Angel and Berto.

Backstage, General Manager Robert Stone takes a call from Grayson Waller, telling him to return to the building, then is met by Zaria, who wants to know who her next opponent is. Wren Sinclair shows up looking for her next opponent, and this soon leads to Wren Sinclair challenging an entitled Zaria - who believes she should not be in a tournament - in an attempt to be her next opponent. Stone has Wren defend her title against Zaria next week, and if she wins, she gets a future opportunity at the NXT Women's North American Championship. Zaria tells Wren to count her days and leaves.

Birthright (Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo and Uriah Connors) beats OTM (Bronco Nima and Lucien Price) after Angel and Berto show up, distrating Bronco to the point that he tells them not to get involved while Lucien gets double-teamed and pinned.

In this week's NXT Focus, we hear from Kendal Grey. She says her NXT Underground match next week will be her biggest match to date and that she is training with her father as well as Julius Creed to get ready. She says it is the best against the best with Lola Vice, and she knows she is better.

Backstage, Kali Armstrong says that should be her facing Kendal Grey. Izzi Dame reminds Kali Armstrong to wait her turn, as she just got here. As Kali says she waits for nothing. Kelani Jordan shows up and says that should have also been her. Reina Volcan shows up and says the division does not rebuild; it reloads.

Shiloh Hill beats Tristan Angels after Tristan is caught by the referee using the ropes for leverage.

Mike Santana - now going by the name Cruz Montana - heads to the ring. He declares that he is officially a WWE Superstar, then admits that there were times that he would not see tomorrow, as he came up in some of the toughest neighborhoods in New York City. He says that every day was a fight and a struggle to survive, and while he was no saint and made mistakes he would regret while he fought the man in the mirror, he wanted to be the man his daughter would be proud to call "father." Montana then talks about how he was told he reached his ceiling as a tag team wrestle, he started winning as a solo wrestler and rebuilt his career one step at a time. He says that he appreciates what Total Nonstop Action did for him. He then says that he stands here today as a WWE Superstar, and says that was not given to him. He says he is here not to give a spot, but to take a spot, and he plans to be NXT Champion. Montana then gives props to Grayson Waller's promo at the start of the show, then says that they can fight at any YMCA he wants before Tony D'Angelo shows up. D'Angelo welcomes Montana to NXT, interrupting Montana like Montana did to him last week to introduce himself properly before talking about how so many free agents have showed up and talked about how they will run NXT. D'Angelo says he believes Montana, but tells him the spot of NXT Champion is taken until further notice, but Montana has none of this and tells D'Angelo he will show him how he takes that spot. All of a sudden, Montana is shoved into D'Angelo from behihind, and Grayson escapes from Dead to Rights before avoiding a clothesline from Montana meant for him, causing Montana to hit D'Angelo instead.

Kendal Grey and Wren Sinclair head to the ring. They are soon joined by Lola Vice. Kendal says she is glad that Lola wants to face her again, and Lola says that she is not done running the women's division and that "Vice City" continues to grow. Kendal says Lola became everything everyone said she could be, then ran into her. She says that Kendal was right when she said she saw a champion, but Lola saw someone who needed validation when she looked at Kendal. Kendal says she does not need validation, as the NXT Women's Championship is validation, and that she did not need years to prove she belonged here. Lola says Kendal got here fast, then wants to know how fast Kendal will fall. Lola says she knows her worth, and that Kendal is shy, weak and vulnerable. Kendal says she is honest with herself and the fans, and says that there is not a woman in the back who can match her. Lola says Kendal beat her once in a match, but not in a fight. Wren Sinclair is hesitant, and Kendal knows where Lola is going. Kendal tells Lola to think about it, as she will be exposed if she goes where she is taking her. Lola gives Kendal a week to train for an NXT Underground match, then says she will send Kendal to the mat. Kendal says she will beat Lola's ass and send her back to "shakin' it."

We see a video package chronicling the events between Tony D'Angelo and Naraku leading to tonight's street fight for the NXT Championship.

Backstage, Nattie (along with Nikkita Lyons and Karmen Petrovic) meets with Thea Hail about inviting her to "The Dungeon," saying she has worked wonders for Karmen Petrovic and Nikkita Lyons and that Thea can either be a legend like her or "a soft bitch" like Jaida Parker. Thea says she has no problem with Jaida; it is Nattie she does not like. Karmen tells Thea that she will reject this as she, Nikkita and Nattie leave. Thea genuinely hopes that Nattie gets her teeth punched in.

In footage from last night, Shiloh Hill meets Danhausen. Shiloh asks for Danhausen's help with Tristan Angels and mentions that Tristan smashed his tooth. Danhausen hands Shiloh a tooth, but says adhesive will cost a lot of human monies. Shiloh pays Danhausen in Bitcoin. Danhausen takes the Bitcoin payment, then tries to put it in his computer.

Jaida Parker beats Nattie by referee stoppage. As Jaida has Nattie in the Sharpshooter in the middle of the ring, Karmen Petrovic and Nikkita Lyons fight over the white towel in Nikkita's hand. All of a sudden, the towel is thrown into the ring, and Nattie looks at Nikkita and Petrovic only to see Thea Hail at ringside. An alternate camera shot of what happened at the end of the match shows that Thea Hail suddenly showed up, took the towel away, and threw it in the ring. Nattie is embarrassed.

During the match, Lizzy Rain shows up and brawls with Izzi Dame, and as this goes on, Shawn Spears hit the mat with the chair and tosses the chair to Niko Vance before lying down on the mat behind the referee's back. When the referee turns around, Niko Vance has the chair and Spears is lying on the mat. The referee calls for the bell and gives Spears the win via disqualification, and multiple referees have to hold Vance back after the match.

Backstage, Kam Hendrix tells General Manager Robert Stone that he is not yet medically cleared. Myles Borne and Tavion Heights show up, and Myles Borne wants a tag team title match, saying that he will defend the North American title next week if he can get the match. Myles wants Hendrix, but says that Hendrix's hurt leg is attached to a coward. Kam Hendrix suddenly gets a text from the medical team stating that he is clear. Stone tells Myles that he has his tag team title match, and that he has his North American title match next week. Kam Hendrix says he will see Myles Borne next week.

We hear from Reina Volcan, who says that people mistake beauty for weakness. She says that NXT will suffer, not survive, her.
