WWE NXT

-Commentators:  Mauro Ranallo & "Showtime" Percy Watson.
-"The Pirate Princess" Kairi Sane d. Shazza McKenzie with the diving elbowdrop off the top rope (1:51).  Afterwards, Lacey Evans came out to speak to Kairi and apologized for her previous actions...but it was a setup for a cheapshot.
-Backstage:  Candice LeRae was interviewed...she was distraught over the condition of her husband Johnny Gargano, but she had to focus on her match for the evening...
-TM-61(Shane Thorne & Nick Miller) d. The Street Profits(Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford); Thorne reversed a sunset flip into a rollup pin with Miller holding Thorne's feet on the ropes for illegal leverage (3:14).
-Backstage:  Kassius Ohno was interviewed...he was one of the wrestlers who was checking on Johnny Gargano as he was stretchered out of the building last week.  Ohno vowed to make Tommaso Ciampa pay for his actions.
-"The Finest" Kona Reeves d. Patrick Scott after the Hawaiian Drop(face-first Samoan Drop) (2:03).
-Earlier today:  Dakota Kai was interviewed about the state of women's wrestling in WWE and NXT.  She wants to make her mark in NXT...as for Women's Champion Shayna Baszler, she'd rather not talk about her.  Vanessa Borne interrupted the interview to insult Kai's alleged cowardice...sounds like another match in the works.
-Bianca Belair d. Candice LeRae via fallaway powerbomb (3:31).
-United Kingdom Champion "The Bruiserweight" Pete Dunne d. NXT Tag Team Champion(?) Roderick Strong(w/ NXT North American Champion Adam Cole & Kyle O'Reilly) by DQ when Cole and O'Reilly broke up the pin after the Bitter End(pumphandle Flatliner) (9:04).  Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch hit the ring to even the odds, helping Dunne clear the ring.
