Its another big night tonight as we have the NXT Tag Team Titles on the line with the Authors of Pain defending against Heavy Machinery. In addition to that we have Johnny Gargano making his big return to the show after Tommaso Ciampa turned on him at Takeover: Chicago. Let’s get to it.
We open with a long recap of DIY splitting up.
Aleister Black vs. Bobby Fish
Back with Fish winning another striking battle and hitting a dragon screw legwhip. A half crab is broken up but Fish is right back with a rear naked choke. Black escapes and finally has enough of this, scoring with a kick to the ribs and a springboard moonsault to a standing fish. A jumping knee to the jaw sets up Black Mass to put Fish away at 11:08.
Result: Aleister Black b. Bobby Fish – Black Mass (11:08)
We recap Kassius Ohno and Hideo Itami having even more issues last week.
Post match, Ohno said he was tired of Itami blaming everyone for his problems since Chicago. Ohno is done talking.
The Street Profits are coming.
The Velveteen Dream was annoyed at an attempted interview.
Mae Young Classic Qualifying Match: Vanessa Borne vs. Jayme Hachey
Borne has been on NXT before under the name Danielle Kamela. Hachey has been around the indies under the name Jayme Jameson. Jayme takes her down and works on the arm but Borne comes up with forearms to the face. Something like a spinning belly to back suplex with a leg hook puts Jayme away at 1:48.
Result: Vanessa Borne b. Jayme Hachey – Spinning belly to back suplex (1:48)
Last week, Sanity attacked Drew McIntyre in the parking lot. Wolfe said that Drew’s time is running out.
Bobby Roode is in William Regal’s office with the boss talking about the new #1 contender. Roode actually takes charge and suggests Dain vs. McIntyre for the #1 contendership. Regal goes with it and makes the match for next week.
Here’s Gargano for his return speech. Gargano has been thinking about what Ciampa did to him over and over and he just can’t get it. He’s ready to move forward though because he can’t control what happened but he can control how he reacts to them. Takeover: Brooklyn is coming up and Johnny has to be on that show, though he seems a bit hesitant.
Tag Team Titles: Authors of Pain vs. Heavy Machinery
The Authors are defending. Otis and Razar go nose to nose to start with Otis going nowhere off a forearm. A standing body block actually drops Razar and it’s time for a standoff. Back from a break with Akam holding Tucker in a cravate and sending him into the champs’ corner. We hit the neck crank for a good while before it’s back to Akam for a chinlock.
Tucker finally gets in a hard clothesline for the break and the hot tag brings in Otis. Everything breaks down and a rather impressive overhead belly to belly sends Akam flying. Tucker’s powerslam gets two on Razar but Akam breaks up the Compactor. The Last Chapter ends Otis to retain the titles at 11:16.
Result: Authors of Pain b. Heavy Machinery – Last Chapter to Dozovic (11:16)
Post match Sanity comes out to stare down the Authors. Pages of the Book of Dominance fall and Wolfe eats one to end the show.
Results
Aleister Black b. Bobby Fish – Black Mass
Vanessa Borne b. Jayme Hachey – Spinning belly to back suplex
Authors of Pain b. Heavy Machinery – Last Chapter to Dozovic
