WWE NXT

-Commentators:  Mauro Ranallo, Nigel McGuinness, & "Showtime" Percy Watson.
-Ember Moon won a triple threat match with Ruby Riot and Sonya Deville; Sonya got Ruby in an anklelock, but Ember hit the Eclipse(flying Stone Cold Stunner off the top rope) on Sonya and covered Ruby for the three-count (7:53 aired).
-Earlier this week:  Adam Cole & reDRagon(Kyle O'Reilly & Bobby Fish) approached Roderick Strong as he was leaving the Performance Center...is this an alliance in the making?
-Backstage:  General Manager S. William Regal was interviewed about the NXT Women's Title situation.  Kairi Sane, Peyton Royce, and Ember Moon have qualified, so next week's qualifier will be...enter Billie Kay & Peyton Royce, hoping Billie would be in the match.  Regal confirmed that she was correct...but it would be a battle royal to give everyone a chance.  Billie & Peyton were less than pleased with this development.
-Aleister Black d. Raul Mendoza with the Black Mass(spinning kick) (2:12); "The Velveteen Dream" Patrick Clark attempted to distract Black by trying on his vest, but it didn't work...he still left with Black's vest.
-NXT Champion Drew McIntyre did a sitdown interview about his recent accomplishments.  Zelina Vega interrupted, saying that Drew and Andrade "Cien" Almas have a lot in common...and Almas might just be the next one to challenge for that title.  Has he been avoiding Almas?  While Zelina insinuated that Drew had the pull to get the title match made, Drew said that he would defend against anyone and kindly informed Zelina that perhaps Almas should take this up with him personally instead of sending his business partner.
-Kassius Ohno d. Cezar Bononi after a rolling elbow to the back of the head (3:06).
-Sanity(NXT Tag Team Champions Eric Young & Alexander Wolfe & Killian Dain) d. Adam Cole & reDRagon(Kyle O'Reilly & Bobby Fish) by DQ when The Authors Of Pain(Akam Dhinsa & Rezar Selmani)(w/ Paul Ellering) attacked the members of Sanity (9:33 aired).
-Next week:  Sixteen-woman battle royal for the final spot in the NXT Women's Title match at Takeover.

-Commentators:  Matt Striker & Vampiro.
-Matanza Cueto(w/ promoter Dario Cueto) d. Dragon Azteca Jr. in a cage match after Black Lotus attacked Azteca with a cross-bodyblock off the cage, leading to Matanza winning with the Wrath Of The Gods(rewind powerslam) (8:33).  (Azteca initially won via "escape" when Matanza overhead belly-to-belly suplexed him through the cage, but Dario restarted the match to end by pinfall/submission only.)  Lotus attacked Matanza as well and cornered Dario, forcing him to admit that he had lied about who killed her parents(it was Matanza, not the original Dragon Azteca)...Matanza recovered and laid her out with the Wrath Of The Gods.
-Mil Muertes(w/ Catrina Perez) won a three-way dance with "They Call Him A Machine" Brian Cage and Jeremiah Crane.  Cage pinned Crane after the Weapon X(Gory Special Flatliner) (11:34), then Muertes pinned Cage after a Flatliner onto a chair (14:09 aired).  Dario presented the gauntlet to Mil and Catrina, but King Cuerno made a surprise return to attack Mil...the hunter left with the gauntlet as his trophy.
-Prince Puma d. Johnny Mundo in a title-vs.-career match to win the Lucha Underground Title.  "The Darewolf" P.J. Black, Jack Evans, Taya Valkyrie, & Ricky Mundo all got involved after a ref bump, but Angélico helped to even the odds...Puma went on to win with the 630 Splash (18:25 aired).
-BUT WAIT~!  Dario announced that Pentagon Dark had approached him last week about cashing in his Gift Of The Gods Title, so that match would happen TONIGHT...and BOTH men's careers were at stake!
-Pentagon Dark d. Prince Puma to win the Lucha Underground Title; Puma appeared to be on the verge of victory, but Vampiro left the commentary table to pull Pentagon out of the way of the 630 Splash.  Pentagon finished with the package piledriver to win the title (8:30).
-Pulp Fiction-style closing vignettes:  Puma left the Temple, discarding his mask as he departed...Cuerno put the gauntlet in a place of honor in his trophy room...a little girl left a spider in a box for Sexy Star, saying "she hasn't forgotten about you"...The Rabbit Tribe(Paul London, Saltador, & Mala Suerte) continued their worship of Mascarita Sagrada...Fenix and ring announcer Melissa Santos left the building, but Catrina was watching and so was Jeremiah Crane...Daga took his place as Kobra Moon's king; Drago was still imprisoned and Pindar was executed for being the weak link of the team in their loss...Vampiro met up with his master, who congratulated Vampiro for getting rid of Puma...Matanza returned to his cage and Rey Misterio Jr. was revealed as still being alive in the cell next to him...Dario promised his superiors that he would get the gauntlet back, but they SHOT HIM and told him that "new management" would take care of his mistakes...Dario tried to call for help on his phone, but passed out before he could...
-The end?
