Orlando, FL – Full Sail University
Commentary: Mauro Ranallo, Nigel McGuinness, Percy Watson


Segment: William Regal

The show began with Mr. William Regal announcing that the next NXT Women’s Champion will be determined in a fatal four-way match at TakeOver: Houston. One of the competitors will be Kairi Sane and the other three will be determined in a series of qualifying matches that begin in two weeks.


In-Ring: SAnitY

SAnitY stormed to the ring after the intro to kick the show off! Eric Young said they wrote the book on making the mark. In this universe, time and space doesn’t exist or matter. What matters is the chaos. The only thing for sure is change, and tonight Young will take Adam Cole (Bay-Bay) to the edge of sanity.


Lars Sullivan defeated Oney Lorcan

Before the match, Lorcan said he doesn’t like Sullivan and doesn’t like what he did to No Way Jose.As hard as he tried, nothing that Lorcan did seemed to make a dent on his much larger foe. Lorcan hit a dropkick and a plancha, but neither took Sullivan off his feet. As a matter of fact, Sullivan caught him on the plancha and dropped him face-first on the ring apron, which is the hardest part of the ring. Lorcan chopped and slapped Sullivan, but he shrugged it off and took Lorcan’s head off with a clothesline. Sullivan then picked up the win with his uranage.

Sullivan was about to do more damage after the match, but Danny Burch ran down and pulled Lorcan to safety.


Backstage Interview: Ruby Riot

Ruby Riot cut a promo and said Nikki Cross is not her friend. She said she doesn’t know why Cross got involved in her tag team match, but she did accept Billie Kay and Peyton Royce’s challenge for a rematch.


Heavy Machinery defeated Patrick Scott & Demetrius Bronson

Scott made two mistakes. One was to sign for this match, and the other was to hit Tucker Knight. Knight destroyed Scott and he tagged in Bronson. Bronson used to play for the Miami Dolphins, so I already hate him and he fared only slightly better against Otis Dozovic. Scott got involved again and got laid out again.

Finally, Heavy Machinery continued their winning ways with the Compactor.


Earlier Today: William Regal and Johnny Gargano

Earlier today, William Regal was having a press conference when Johnny Gargano stormed by. Mr. Regal stopped him and told him he’ll have a rematch with Andrade “Cien” Almas in two weeks. He also promised something special for TakeOver: Houston.


Earlier Today: Roderick Strong

At some other point earlier today, Christy St. Cloud asked Roderick Strong how he’s preparing for his NXT Championship match next week against Drew McIntyre. Strong said he prepares by being the best. McIntyre will try to knock him down and out, but Strong keeps moving forward. He’s worked his whole life for this and he now knows he is indestructible. McIntyre doesn’t have the tenacity to beat him. Strong said he is coming with everything he has and nothing will stop him until he wins the title.


Liv Morgan defeated Vanessa Borne

Morgan hasn’t been around in a while. She said she’s gonna keep doing what she’s been doing in an effort to become the next NXT Women’s Champion. Borne, who was in the Mae Young Classic, also wants to be champion. Borne yells a lot while on offense, and it actually sounded like she was sneezing. This match was awkward at best and at worst it was awful. I don’t know what Morgan has been doing since not being on television, but I don’t know if “practicing wrestling” was it. Anyway, she won with a jumping bulldog. Mauro Ranallo said he hopes this performance grabs the attention of William Regal. I hope so too, but for a different reason than he meant.


Earlier Today: Aleister Black

A recap of last week’s segment with Aleister Black and Velveteen Dream aired. At some other point earlier today, Black was training in the ring when a cameraman asked him what his thoughts were. Black said he’s not going to give “Patrick” attention for throwing a tantrum like a child.


Kassius Ohno defeated Fabian Aichner

Aichner is from the Cruiserweight Classic, where he lost to Jack Gallagher and wasn’t seen in WWE again. He gained about 30 pounds of muscle and would no longer qualify for the cruiserweight division. Aichner did a springboard dive to the outside that was a thing of beauty, leaping to the top rope in one fluid motion before diving. Ohno went for multiple moves, but each time Aichner would catch him and drop him in some sort of slam. Aichner went for everything with a double springboard moonsault but ended up with nothing but canvas, which led to Ohno’s comeback. Ohno won with the cyclone kick.


Adam Cole defeated Eric Young

Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly came out with Cole. For some reason, the sight of O’Reilly wearing a plain white T-shirt caused girls to squeal.

Cole cut a promo beforehand asking how this place survived without the three of them. He asked the fans to close their eyes, take this moment in and feel it. What we feel, he says, is change and a shock to the system. He announced they are untouchable, unstoppable, and undisputed. This is their era.

The bell rang at 8:54, which told you that this wouldn’t be the longest bout of all time. Cole got frustrated as Young didn’t charge at the bell, so Cole did. Young then ducked a clothesline and it was on. O’Reilly jumped on the apron a minute in, which almost led to a brawl between the excessive members of both groups.

Cole tried to shout “Adam Cole Bay-Bay!” at one point, but Young punched the words out of his mouth, which the crowd didn’t know how to react to as they like playing “sing along.” Young made his comeback, which led to Fish and O’Reilly interfering, officially leading to the giant brawl outside the ring.

Young had Cole laid out for the top rope elbow, but instead dove onto the pile of bodies outside the ring. Back inside, Cole immediately hit a jumping knee for the pin.
