01:48I believe a tag was made
01:49I don't know if
01:50Yeah
01:51Hank it caught in the rope
01:52And now Griffin's able to take effect
01:53And this matchup certainly has changed around
01:55And think about Griffin for a second
01:56If you look at his left hand
01:57Oh!
01:58Oh!
01:59Making a tag
02:00And he gets some fresh bodies in
02:01Six man tag team matches
02:04Hank
02:05And for Hank Walker
02:06Take one sugar
02:07Oh!
02:08And Deion Lennox on the far side
02:10The complexion of this matchup
02:11Has changed
02:12There's the numbers man

03:17Destruction
03:18Legs spreading throughout NXT
03:23Dark state continues to
03:25Being strong
03:26No you're right
03:27I agree
03:28Strong?
03:29What you know about being strong baby?
03:30Still that little annoying yapping

03:40You're just too damn
03:42Soft
03:43Okay we're done with this
03:44Or maybe
03:45Miss Parker
03:46Had an amazing opportunity
03:47At send and deliver
03:48And
03:49Choked
03:50I thought you don't play
03:51I don't
03:52I'm gonna see you later on tonight
03:53In the ring
03:54Since you want to act all froggy
03:56Yo ass better jump
03:57I don't
03:58We're gonna find out
03:59Tonight
04:00Come on in
04:02Jordan
04:04Tonight before we compete in this battle royale
04:06There's something I've got to say
04:07Charlie
04:08It can wait
04:09No it can't
04:10See tonight it's not about holding grudges
04:12Or seeking individual glory
04:14Nope
04:15Tonight we are three individuals
04:16All with one goal in mind
04:18Nope
04:19And it's time that we finally get a title back for NQCC baby
04:21Miles you hear that right?
04:22Yeah I heard
04:23They do this thing
04:25Good
04:26Good
04:27I don't think anybody would be disappointed
04:32I have a feeling
04:33Zarya has honor
04:34Her reputation
04:35Whatever it is she's trying to defend
04:37That's fine
04:38Oh when it comes to Zarya
04:39There we go
04:40Just got drop kicked
04:41The entire women's division
04:44The ring
04:45Julia
04:46What are you talking about?
04:47What do you mean what are I talking about?
04:48They're friends
04:49Look that's the way you see it
04:50Life experiences
04:51Look good
04:52Good
04:53Good
04:54I need to have a Pat McAfee like Michael Cole has
04:56Oh
04:57That would be
04:58Tough dude
04:59He might have bitten off a little more than he can
05:01Game at least thus far
05:02Again there's that
05:03Power on display
05:05Ribs
05:06Right now take a look at that big knee
05:07And now that athleticism
05:09With a twist
05:10One more time
05:11And this time
05:12It pays off for Kalani
05:14Again
05:15At backlash
05:16Is Kalani charging in
05:17Slash
05:18WWE speed women's tournament
05:20Later this week
05:21Oh
05:22As Kalani right now charging again
05:24This time
05:25Booker
05:26In this matchup
05:27She's been able to counter Zarya
05:28At every
05:29It's been a great strategy by Zarya this far
05:31Up to that point
05:32Stay in the same place
05:33You gotta be showing constant advancement
05:35You gotta make your way up the
05:36Punishing
05:37Kalani Jordan in the center of the ring
05:40Oh but look at the balance right there
05:41Kalani trying to fight back
05:43Kalani of course who is the first woman
05:45To ever hold the women's
05:46They always say
05:48The second time around
05:49In position
05:50Big elbow
05:51Oh yes man
05:52Singles matchup
05:53That certainly is something to put on your resume
05:55And a big DDT
05:57Able to roll right through though
05:59Able to pop right back up
06:01Whoa
06:02Didn't
06:03Get
06:04Enough
06:05You got to be kidding me
06:06A little shocked at what she's witnessing
06:08But
06:09Kalani
06:10Able to counter
06:11Charging in and
06:13Whoa
06:14It's a gift
06:15Showing a new side
06:16Whoa
06:17Amuso
06:18As Kalani
06:19Looking for a victory
06:20Whoa
06:21A little miscommunication
06:23Oh
06:24Through the barricade
06:26Wow
06:27Saw the opportunity
06:29Of destruction
06:31Here tonight
06:33One
06:34Two
06:35Three
06:36Arya
06:37Stands up
06:38For her friend
06:40And then once I win everything
06:43With
06:44Whoa
06:45The Don of NXT
06:46How's the family dog
06:48Oh that's real good Wes
06:50You're a funny guy
06:51Listen if somebody knows about stabbing a brother in the back
06:53It's you right
06:54You did the Zach Wentz
06:55And if I had to
06:57I'm pretty sure that Stax would do the exact same thing
07:00There's something different about you man
07:02Less confident
07:03That must be why you're not in the battle royal
07:05You're afraid because you ain't got the family anymore
07:07So you got all this talent
07:08But if you want to be a tough guy
07:10Go ahead and take a shot
07:11Whoa
07:12I would
07:13I have a battle royal to win instead
07:14So
07:15See ya
07:16See ya
07:17NXT
07:18Champion
07:19Looking to get back to the top of the mountain
07:22Oh
07:23What
07:24What
07:25What
07:26What
07:27Battle royal
07:29Tended to battleground
07:33We find out next
07:34No matter who wins
07:36Jordan or Julia
07:37It's gonna be tough at battleground
07:39I have no doubt that if anyone could walk into hell and walk out
07:42Competing all over
07:45Indifference promotion
07:47For what
07:48Being at the top of the NXT women's division
07:51Pero Lola to tiempo
07:52Stephanie
07:53No matter what happens at battleground
07:55I will be waiting on the other side for my opportunity
07:59I haven't forgotten
08:01See you at
08:02Battleground
08:09Battleground
08:13That's the guy
08:14That's the guy
08:15That's the guy
08:16Hello, I am Elijah
08:22I saw a friend in need
08:25And I don't like Trick Willy
08:27So I decided to come to NXT
08:30NXT
08:32Walk with me
08:34Who wants to walk with Elijah?
08:37With Elijah
08:41Wow
08:42TNA wrestler Elijah
08:44Chris Island
08:45And right now
08:46He's fellow
08:47LFG guys
08:48LFG guys
08:49Silo Hill
08:50I did not expect to walk with Elijah tonight
08:51I didn't even bring my walking shoes
08:53What a moment
08:54Look there picture
08:55That's what that is
08:56He tried
08:57Doubt about it
08:58One of these men
08:59Whoa
09:00I'm thinking about a guy
09:01Whoa
09:02Whoa
09:03Whoa
09:04Make sure he's watching his surroundings
09:06He's done with a five and seven runner
09:08Trick teetering able
09:09To hold on
09:10Another
09:11Bodies continue to fall
09:12That was Timothy
09:13There's Hill from LFG
09:15He caught one as well
09:16A little extra fired up after what happened
09:18Last week
09:19Whoa
09:20It's as simple as that
09:22And as you're looking into the ring
09:23Yes
09:24Zachary Wentz
09:25I mean there is everybody and everyone
09:27Like your life and career depends on it
09:29Because it may
09:30Comes your way
09:31That's the case for all of these guys
09:32They back on the same page
09:34They back on the same page
09:36But you can't take the MSK out of the guys
09:38You can certainly take Ricky Smokes
09:39Set to the back in one more time
09:41Oh
09:42Everybody's fight
09:43With themselves
09:44Inamora again
09:45And Tyson
09:46Who is it?
09:47He's got that 24 length parlay
09:49In this one
09:50My guys eat the page
09:51Pointing this matchup without Charlie's approval
09:53There's still plenty of bodies though
09:55Hanging out
09:56Hanging out
09:57And I don't know if Briggs was aiming for Inam
09:59Was meant for him or not
10:00Seems that yes
10:01Yes
10:02Everybody's in this for themselves
10:03Can we all get on the same page with that?
10:05Page
10:06Page with another big kick
10:07Ethan Page looking for the elimination
10:09That's my guy
10:11But King was one of the first ones eliminated
10:13Ethan Page
10:14Really high on this kid's shot
10:15And right there
10:16He's looking good
10:17Mitch Jensen
10:18Walking over on the far
10:19Still in it
10:20He was able to hang on
10:21Trick Williams there
10:22TNA also Zachary Wentz
10:24We've seen Wentz in
10:26A brief moment
10:27He'll
10:28Oh!
10:29Puck kick!
10:30And the semi-finalist
10:31As Jermaine Engels
10:32Over the top rope hanging on
10:34Day low
10:35So now you just switched your pick over to Zachary Wentz
10:37I'm picking Wentz
10:38And you can feel
10:39Even this deep into the battle oil
10:41The urgency being
10:42Working together as a well-oiled team
10:44Trying to get Trick Williams out of this matchup
10:46Baby
10:47Oh baby
10:48But Trick Williams now
10:49Position right now
10:50Jensen
10:51Woah
10:52What?
10:53Moscaras-esque in the Royal Rumble
10:55Well you can say that again
10:56Oh
10:57Oh
10:58Oh
10:59It's Lee now
11:00David Hielma up there
11:02Still in it
11:03Here comes Holland
11:04And Ridge
11:05We gotta talk about those two
11:06That have really taken the team aspect
11:09Sumo style
11:10Ridge is screwed
11:11Oh
11:12Oh
11:13It doesn't matter
11:14It's a battle royal
11:15Experience wise
11:16Elijah's near the top of the game
11:18One more time
11:19Is Sean Legacy
11:20And somehow Javon Evans
11:21I think he's just standing
11:22Four men went over the top rope
11:24All four men
11:25Oh
11:26Here goes Wentz
11:27Another elimination has happened
11:29Which one of these men?
11:30Battle royal in the past
11:31We talk about guys who've been so close
11:34Trick Williams is a two-time NXT champion
11:36Ethan Page
11:37Risky proposition when you're dealing with Ina Mora
11:39But being felt by Javon Evans
11:41Oh
11:42Trying to dump all ego
11:43But
11:44Well Femi
11:45Is watching this match so closely
11:47Who he's gonna face
11:48And
11:49Oh
11:50God
11:51What the hell
11:52Elimination
11:53Trick Williams all smiles
11:55Femi perhaps dethroning
11:57The ruler
11:58Could you imagine
11:59That's what it's all about
12:00Oh
12:01Field begins to thin
12:02What a chop
12:04I like it
12:06Heavy lumber
12:07Will be done
12:08Left
12:09In what was originally 25
12:12But you gotta get the opposition over the top rope
12:14Gotta start
12:15Rich Hollins
12:16Oh baby
12:17Oh
12:18But Trick Williams
12:19You gotta be kidding me
12:22And another shot
12:23Oh dear
12:26But Trick eliminated this man
12:28Here again
12:29The elimination
12:30And the door was open
12:32Elijah
12:33To eliminate
12:34More security than this
12:35Wait a minute
12:36Spears
12:37Elijah
12:38Fuckin
12:39To the back

14:02To be a champion
14:03Tonight you go one on one
14:04Against Julia for the first time
14:05Only one of you can challenge for the NXT women's title at battleground
14:09Last week Julia and I fought out of the arena but tonight it has to stay in the rink
14:14I'm gonna beat Julia and earn my long overdue one on one title match at battleground
14:18Over the entire NXT women's division
14:19Wow

15:44And that's the aggressive
15:45Nasty attitude
15:46I was hoping it wasn't drama
15:49Count
15:50And only can count
15:51On one person
15:52Because we've talked about those opportunities
15:54Here at NXT
15:55This is certainly not an opportunity
15:57It's Parker in the ropes
15:58It's up to various ones that will create a lot of space between her
16:04Beautiful
16:05And this is what we've been talking about all night
16:07To be sure of ourselves
16:08And this is where Ashanti came in
16:09Ashanti
16:10He just missed wildly
16:11And Parker makes
16:12Hit nine
16:13Parker
16:14Yeah
16:15Parker
16:16Yeah
16:17Parker
16:18Yeah
16:19Parker
16:20Parker victorious
16:21And right back on top
16:22And look Graves
16:23Talking about it all night
16:24Jada Parker
16:25Look at it
16:26Hit it
16:27And oh
16:28What the hell
16:29That is
16:30Whoa
16:31And Petrovich
16:32Looking for maybe that knockout blow
16:34And she certainly proved that
16:36Once again
16:37Joe look
16:38This situation between you and Trick
16:40It has to end
16:41Messing up the shell
16:42The battle royal
16:43The tag match
16:44Look any world champion
16:45I'm not backing down to Trick Williams
16:46That's fine
16:47Definitely not going to either
16:48Which is why
16:49I spoke to Santino
16:50And we came to an agreement tonight
16:51To you and Trick
16:52One on one
16:53I like that
16:54And
16:55For the first time on a WWE PLE
16:57That TNA world championship is on the line
16:59And just so you know
17:00The contract signing is next week
17:02I'll be there
17:03Perfect
17:04Let's go
17:05Miles, fantastic job on that battle royal
17:07Is that right?
17:08Each and every single one of you
17:09To help me get ready for this match
17:10At Battleground against Oba
17:11I know I'm hard of hearing
17:13But did you say you're facing Oba?
17:15I won the battle royal
17:16You won it for the good of the group
17:17But it's gotta be me out there
17:18Grabbing all of that big
17:19Stretching them out
17:20And having them crying for mercy
17:25Congratulations Miles Bourne
17:26You had my first pick
17:27But uh
17:28The ruler is impressed
17:29I guess I'll be seeing you at Battleground, huh?
17:31Actually Oba
17:32It's uh
17:33It's gonna be me that you're facing at Battleground
17:35Watched Miles win
17:36Yeah, yeah, yeah
17:37But I had the leader of the NQCC
17:38I did win
17:39The title match will be mine at Battleground
17:40Why not next week?
17:41Cause you can show me how it's done
17:43You see Oba
17:44Before you came over here
17:45You're gonna stretch out that big me head
17:47I never said that
17:48He was actually putting Adam out there
17:50Next week
17:51If you beat Oba
17:53Like you believe you will
17:54Then maybe Battleground
17:56Becomes a triple threat
17:57No, no, no, no, no, no
17:58I'm done with triple threats
17:59But I'll see you next week
18:03Damn
18:04Thanks a lot Miles
18:05That's a wonderful selected earring you got there
18:08What'd you say Charlie?
18:09He said you have wonderful selected earring
18:12What is Charlie thinking?
18:15Julia!
18:16Well Miles, which one of these two women heads to Tampa?
18:21First week of Chase you being back is absolutely awesome, bro
