- Weaponized Steel Cage Match: Gigi Dolin defeated Jacy Jayne by pinfall.
- Tony D’Angelo’s criminal investigation situation was mocked by Gallus, so Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo went after them backstage.
- Carmelo Hayes cut a promo about retaining his title at NXT Battleground. He and Trick Williams were interrupted by Noam Dar, Oro Mensah, Jakara Jackson and Lash Legend, so Dar could boast how he retained his Heritage Cup, too. This led to a challenge for a title match, which Hayes accepted.
- Cora Jade was complaining backstage in the locker room about how she’s the only person who should be celebrated tonight. Ivy Nile told her to shut up, leading to a match being scheduled for later.
- Backstage, Reggie approached Axiom, who asked what he wanted. Reggie explained that that’s his given name, but growing up, everyone called him SCRYPTS. He wants to thank Axiom for unmasking him and waking him up to see the light. Axiom’s helped him open his eyes. Axiom is confused.
- Wes Lee and Tyler Bate vs The Dyad of Schism by pinfall. After the match, Ivy Nile went after Ava Raine, The Creed Brothers backed her up against The Dyad, and Mustafa Ali, who had come out during the match to sit on commentary, helped fight off Joe Gacy and then raise Lee’s and Bate’s hands.
- In another Chase University segment, Thea Hail was riled up and wants to prove that she isn’t weak like Drew Gulak and Charlie Dempsey claim.
- Tiffany Stratton held her “Tiffybration” in the ring, celebrating her NXT Women’s Championship win. She invited the roster to come out to find out who her next opponent will be and proceeded to berate them all. Next week, there’s going to be a battle royal to determine her challenger. Hail was the first to go after her after some confetti and balloons fell down. The rest of the roster went into the ring and everyone stared Stratton down as she whined about them ruining her moment.
- Backstage, Mensah, Jackson and Legend approached Trick to talk some trash about the upcoming Dar vs. Melo match. Williams is going to be watching all of them tonight.
- Dani Palmer won’t leave the ring until she finds out who the mystery attacker is. It turns out it’s been Blair Davenport.
- Last week, Eddy Thorpe, Edris Enofe and Malik Blade were chatting when Damon Kemp interrupted to say Thorpe can’t win without cheating. Kemp and Thorpe will fight next week.
- Joe Coffey defeated Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo by pinfall.
- Last week, Mr. Stone was upset at Von Wagner for getting disqualified. Stone suggests Wagner see a therapist for his anger issues.
- Cora Jade defeated Ivy Nile by pinfall.
- Backstage, Hank Walker and Tank Ledger are bonding even better after their match. Enofe and Blade, though, aren’t quite on the same page, and Blade’s down for a match to do the same, but Enofe doesn’t want to fight him.
- NXT Championship Match: Carmelo Hayes (c) defeated Noam Dar by pinfall to retain his title. After the match, Baron Corbin attacked Hayes!
