- Joe Hendry started the show with a promo about Trick Williams attacking him at TNA Rebellion. DarkState attacked him.
- Backstage, Jordynne Grace is down to team with Iyo Sky for tonight’s tag team main event.
- Earlier today, backstage, Gigi Dolin and Tatum Paxley were talking to Karmen Petrovic about how they almost won the TNA Knockouts tag titles at Rebellion, when Ashante “Thee” Adonis interrupted, called them losers, and told Petrovic he got her a shot at Sol Ruca tonight. Petrovic told him not to call them losers and was mad that she’s not ready, but Adonis pushed her to start getting ready.
- NXT North American Championship Match: Ricky Saints (c) defeated Lexis King by pinfall.
- Shawn Spears told the rest of The Culling that they need to strategize how to start getting some wins after all of them have been suffering losses as of late.
- Tony D’Angelo cut a promo about how Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo turned on him. Stacks appeared on the TitanTron to prompt some security guards to attack The Don, who fought back and then told The Underboss to come fight him himself.
- Backstage, Meta-Four were celebrating Noam Dar’s Heritage Cup win, but Lash Legend said it’s time for them all to go their separate ways, with Oro Mensah over on EVOLVE and such. It appears even Legend and Jackson have split as a tag team, but they’re all going to support each other even if they’re not a group anymore.
- Sol Ruca defeated Karmen Petrovic by pinfall. Adonis was scolding Petrovic after the match to the point that Karmen kicked him in the head and appears to have broken up with him.
- Promo: Trick Williams complained about Joe Hendry, promoted his appearance on an upcoming CW show, and again talked about how he wants a one-on-one match against Oba Femi. Ava interrupted, and after he called himself bigger than NXT, she granted him a potential title shot opportunity. Trick will be in a 25-man battle royal next week with the winner facing Femi at NXT Battleground.
- Backstage, Giulia and Roxanne Perez are on the same page.
- Oba Femi was interviewed about the battle royal when Undertaker showed up to tell Femi something he’s said before, about how it is his yard, but to also let him know that some of the LFG talent are coming for him. Jasper Troy, Anthony Luke, and Shiloh Hill then appeared and stared down Femi, who is going to be ready for any challenge.
- NXT Tag Team Championship Match: Hank Walker & Tank Ledger (c) defeated Josh Briggs & Yoshiki Inamura by pinfall to retain.
- Myles Borne talked to Wren Sinclair and Tavion Heights about the battle royal, also clarifying that some EVOLVE, LFG, and TNA talent will be in it. Borne asked where Charlie Dempsey was, and Heights informed him that Dempsey is pissed at Borne for teaming with Je’Von Evans. Borne doesn’t really care and is more interested in getting into the battle royal.
- A new semester for Chase University is in session. Kale Dixon and Uriah Connors were late to class, which upset another student, but Andre Chase told him “f*ck your question” and smiled big that Chase U is back, baby!
- Kelani Jordan complained about how Sol Ruca doesn’t defend the title all the time like she did and that she soft-balled herself by defending against Karmen Petrovic. Zaria stood up for her friend and told Jordan that she can’t talk to Ruca like that, and that if she wants a title match, she has to go through Zaria, first.
- Hank and Tank talked to Joe Hendry about how they believe in him and if he needs some backup against DarkState, they’re there for him.
- Iyo Sky and Jordynne Grace defeated Giulia and Roxanne Perez by pinfall.
- Ava announced to Stephanie Vaquer backstage in her office that Giulia and Jordynne Grace will face off next week with the winner getting a shot at Vaquer’s title at Battleground.
